The BSA Has Begun Part I

"Congratulations, Mr. Joker, on finally breaking into the single-digit rankings."

The congratulatory voices were accompanied by numerous hands reaching out to shake his, offering praise and admiration, ever since the White Dragon team arrived at the BSA awards ceremony, held in a massive dome in Paris often used for high-profile events. Many people eagerly awaited the appearance of the world's top summoners, who would gather at this event.

Whether it was high-profile guests or media representatives, they were all invited. The red carpet procession was, in his words, dazzlingly overwhelming. Flashes of cameras lit up the path, blinding him to the way forward as journalists called out, hoping to catch his attention for a shot. In the end, Joke could only lead his team straight into the venue, feeling awkwardly out of place.
