Chapter 188 Chapter 188 - Jealous?

As Thorin announced that it was time to reveal the top three of this tournament, everyone was listening attentively wondering who could it be.

Would it be the Reaper, someone who wasn't even part of a founding family?

Or would it be the same as all the past years, someone from a founding family?

Well, most thought that it would be like always, however, the crowd would always support the underground which was exactly what was happening right now.

Many people were shouting Aiden's nickname out loud, completely changing the attitude they had at the start of the tournament.

"The Reaper!"

"The Reaper!"

"The Reaper!"

Those shouts resounded everyone inside the Arena, and Aiden couldn't help but smile when hearing them because it felt good to feel supported and not hated.

He didn't mind being hated but it was always a better feeling to be loved.

"Oh, I see that the crowd is hoping to have the underdog win this whole thing," said Thorin, with a smile on his face.

"Well, would he be first place or third place, or even second?" exclaimed Thorin, as he wanted to keep the mystery around this whole thing.

However, Melinda who was right beside him could only scuff as she was almost sure that he had won, he had killed Lucius in his trial. There was simply no way that he wouldn't be first.

Nonetheless, she didn't have access to the Rankings since it had been Thorin and only him who had gotten it from the system.

"Alright, so in third place, is someone from the... Valandis Family!" shouted Thorin.

The crowd continued to shout Aiden's nickname even louder as they seemed quite happy that he hadn't been eliminated yet.

Aiden was now assured a place in the top 2, who could have guessed that at the start of the tournament?

Especially, when the son of the Nightshade Patriarch had participated and had been announced as the victor before the tournament had even started.

Maybe he would have won if the winner wasn't the one who had performed best in a trial, but at last, that's how the tournament was set up this time.

"Isolde Valandis is third in the Inter Family tournament," shouted Thorin, announcing it once again, this time naming her.

Aiden hearing this started to look around him, trying to spot who that person was as he was quite interested in it, obviously.

Then, as Aiden continued to look around, it seemed that Thorin wanted to facilitate his task.

"Isolde please come on the stage," continued Thorin.

After Thoring announced that she needed to come on stage, someone listened and started moving towards it.

Aiden took this chance to observe the beautiful elf that was coming onto the stage.

She had a slender body with almost no visible muscles on it, however, it was obvious that she had trained hard in her life, she just hadn't trained her body.

Then, after looking at her body, Aiden moved up his eyes looking at her face which was incredibly beautiful without any imperfections.

She also had her spiky ears on both sides of her head which made her even more beautiful if Aiden were to be honest.

In fact, if one took a quick glance between Emma and Isolde, they probably wouldn't be able to differentiate them.

***

In the stands, while Isolde started walking up the stage, Emma was observing every single movement coming from Aiden or rather the Reaper as that was the only thing that she could hear right now.

'That's right, now you support him, huh?' thought Emma, clearly unhappy with how fake the people in the crowd were.

First, they had booed him for a long time, insulting him. But it seemed that they had all forgotten now, cheering him on. She was disgusted.

But, then all those thoughts were dismissed as she saw that Aiden was watching Isolde, the third-place winner, with a lot of attention following her every movement.

'Why is he looking at her like that? Does he like her? Does he find her beautiful?' thought Emma, clearly jealous of the attention that Isolde was currently receiving.

'Does he look like that with me too?' thought Emma, blushing.

Her mother, Maelis, who was right beside her noticed this and couldn't help but comment on it.

"What's happening to you, Emma? Why are you so red?" asked Maelis, this time, truly not knowing the reason.

She thought that Emma might be sick or something similar, so she was quite worried about her if she was, to be honest.

Emma hearing that question from her mother, became even more red, thinking that she was currently teasing her.

"Nothing Mom, nothing," mumbled Emma, as she kept looking at Aiden who had his mask on his face.

She noticed that he was still watching the girl with all of his attention moving his head up and down.

'Stop looking at her body, stupid. You already have me to look at,' thought Emma, clearly unhappy that she couldn't be down there to keep his eyes away from her.

Then, as she saw that scene, he couldn't help but remember Olivia.

She remembered that Aiden and she would be going to her high-level family. She didn't want to, but Aiden had accepted and she didn't want to leave him alone with this whore.

Who knew what she would do when she would be alone with Aiden, probably force herself onto him.

Emma wasn't sure but she knew that something would happen and Aiden probably wouldn't have the guts to stop it or even worse he wouldn't want it to stop.

That's why it was essential for him to accompany him there, it was really important.

Well, in Emma's eyes.

"Um, alright, do you think Aiden will win?" she said whispering as she didn't want to reveal Aiden's real name.

Emma hearing this, scuffed.

"Of course, he will who do you take him for? Lucius isn't even in the competition anymore, there's no way that he will lose trust me," said Emma with absolute confidence.
