Breaking Down

Scarlet House, Ocien.

Max looked in the mirror as he got dressed to go out for the meeting. But, his thoughts sure were at some place else. He surely didn't think that there would be someone above the limit of the Supreme present in the Ocien from Demon's side.

It sure came as a surprise to him, and the pressure had increased.

Last night, he tried once again to talk to Alina, but it didn't give much of a result. But, Naze had asked him to wait for Belly to arrive. He was confident that as long as Beli backed them up in front of her, she would definitely be convinced.

But, Max wasn't sure if they could really wait till that long.

After all, there was still a bit of time until the start of competitions in Ocien. And, Max also knew that the girl was currently going back to the Demon territory.
