The second day was as lively as yesterday. People woke up early in the morning as they set up various stalls all over the streets. Of course, the festival was only in the Astros.
A lot of people already gathered around the arena to watch the tournament. The upper tournament wasn’t going to start immediately. The lower tournament was first before the matches of the higher-level experts.
The participants were already warming up on the side of the arena. The audience was cheering for their favorite contestants.
Yenxa woke up. She stood up and fixed her bed before she wore her clothes.
Clothes.
She wasn’t used to wearing something like this. Covering her body with a bunch of tough fibers gives her an uncomfortable feeling. Back in the tribe, goblins like her only used a piece of cloth to cover their lower body.
That’s it, no more and no less. But it’s different here, her Lord said that she should wear something like this as it could also boost her strength to a certain degree.
“I’ll follow my Lord’s order.”
She said to herself while looking in the mirror. She raised her hand and tied her soft silky hair in a ponytail. Then, she fixed her dress.
Her dress normally was a blue or purple grade. Lower than that, it would only disintegrate if she subconsciously let out her toxins. So there’s no point in using something that would only melt if she used her ability.
Souta said that he would find equipment that was compatible with her ability. Since her Lord said it, she wasn’t worried about not getting any equipment.
After she finished, she opened the door and left the room with a book in her hands. It was a book of spells.
She walked out of the house and saw her tribesmen. Compared to before, her tribesmen have better equipment and they were trying to adjust to this life. Her Lord asked her to pick them up which led to the current situation.
In the battle in her homeworld, a lot of her tribesmen perished and only a few dozen survived. Even their habitat was destroyed from the battle.
Right now, Doranjan was the one handling them. As a higher species, he took them under his protection. Nevertheless, she never felt any sort of attachment to them.
Back in the day, fights broke out almost every day. Her tribesmen fought for food and only the strong survive. There’s never been a moment of peace in that harsh environment. Although she was considered the chief of her tribe, never she did something befitting of this position.
“Red Dragon.” Yenxa paused as she turned her head. She saw the Red Dragon in front of a bunch of monsters.
According to her knowledge, Doranjan and the rest of the monsters invaded several dungeons. Doranjan took most of the monsters that submitted to him under his wings. This expedition made the Feral Corps of the Astros grow larger.
A third stage monster even joined the corps. That monster was the Great Lightning Jaguar who joined the upper tournament. So right now, the corps had a total of four third stage monsters including her, and one fourth stage.
Well, they were going back soon. After all, the base of the Feral Corps was on the other side of the portal. They only came here because of the festival and some of the monsters wanted to test their strength in the tournament.
She shook her head and turned away from the group of monsters. Right now, she had to do something before she went to the arena.
“Ah, this…”
Opening the book in her hands, she looked at the words written on the last page. The words weren’t related to spells. Instead, it was just a simple recipe for a dessert that she like.
“Um… Yellow apple, grapevine, melting sugar, and shell cheese. I’ll ask the green woman to cook for me.”
She muttered in a low voice while looking at the recipe. She nodded to herself and closed the book.
“Okay,”
She went out and headed straight to the area where humans and demis lived.
“Good morning, young miss!” An old man said with a smile on his face.
Yenxa nodded at the old man and didn’t say anything. She continued to walk across the streets as she observed the people around her.
“Good morning, young miss!”
“Good morning, sister!”
“Oh, how are you today, Lady Yenxa?”

A lot of people recognized her and warmly greeted her while she was strolling. She was quite well-known among the people of Astros as one of the people who stood beside the Lord.
She nodded at them but didn’t say anything. Although she studied the most common language of the Imperium, she still wasn’t used to speaking. She could’ve placed her thoughts in any random words so that these people could understand her but… In her opinion, using monster language gives off a different impression.
“You can have this young miss.” An old lady gave her a small bag of apple pie.
Yenxa looked at the small bag and then at the old lady. Her expression was still the same and she was even wondering why this old lady was giving her this small bag of apple pie.
“It’s okay, you can even taste it right now if you like.” The old lady smiled brightly.
Yenxa nodded and took the small bag. She picked one before taking a small bite.
“Hmmm~ I-It’s good…”
She said in a small voice. This old lady was not bad. She would remember her face so when there was an opportunity, she could repay her.
“I’m glad that you like it, young miss.” The old lady said gently with a soft smile.
Yenxa gave the old lady a light nod before she turned around. She was about to walk away when someone called her name.
“Oh, Yenxa! You’re here!”
She turned around and saw a beautiful woman with long red striking hair. This woman was one of Lord’s trusted aides.
“Red Witch.”
“Eh!” Amanda smiled awkwardly as she scratched her left cheek when she heard Yenxa’s words. She forced a smile and asked, “What are you doing here? Aren’t you going to watch the tournament? It’s going to start soon.”
“Here.” Instead of answering, Yenxa opened the book in her hands and showed the last page to her.
“Hmm…?” Amanda raised her brows as she looked at the contents. After reading it, she stared at Yenxa and said, “You want to buy these ingredients? Then, let me help you. I actually know where you can find them.”
“Okay.” Yenxa nodded. She turned at the small bag and took out one apple pie. Then, she held it in front of Amanda and said, “Take this.”
“Thanks, but I’m still full.” Amanda waved her hand. She smiled wryly as she noticed that Yenxa was hesitant to give the pie.
“Good.” Yenxa nodded and placed the apple pie in her mouth. She closed her eyes as she appreciated the taste of the food.
“Let’s go. Let’s finish this before the tournament starts.” Amanda said before she walked away.
Yenxa glanced at the old lady one more time before she followed Amanda.
…
The lower tournament had started. The strongest contestants were only at Liquefying Realm. Although their power level was lower than the experts at the upper tournament, they still showed their great skills to the audience.
Souta enjoyed watching this kind of battle. The contestants weren’t powerful but their weapon mastery was high and their martial prowess could even rival those people at S-rank.
“They could start learning [Elemental Drive] at their level. It will give them a huge advantage over their opponent.”
He said in a low voice. Well, he couldn’t blame them even if they haven’t achieved it. Some of the One Shackle Realm hasn’t even learned [Element Drive] themselves.
If he wasn’t wrong, in one of the books that he gave to Torkez, a book about how to train the [Element Drive] faster was included in it. So he was sure that his people would achieve the first level sooner or later.
Hmm…
Souta glanced at the next fighter. It was Remina, Torkez’s subordinate. She was one of the most favored fighters in the lower tournament and she dominated her opponents yesterday.
But the experts that won yesterday’s matches were also strong. They were experts from Noxious, Witch Clan, and one of Eilish’s subordinates.
It wouldn’t be as easy as yesterday.
Souta watched the battle without blinking. He was memorizing their moves and assessing their fighting style at the same time. He was comparing them to him and if there was something, he would give them advice to further improve their skills.
Not just that, he would also take some of their moves for himself. He wasn’t some petty person that would think that all the moves of the people below him were useless. Some of the moves were worth looking at.
So this wasn’t only beneficial to his subordinates but also to him.
