In the next second, the Clusia host saw a fencer emerge from the right side of the arena. He could only tell from the figure whether it was a man or a woman. The host’s jaw nearly dropped as he glanced down at the list in his hand. ‘Wait a minute, this clearly says Jeremiah, male, Clusia major general. How did he turn from a man into a woman in less than half an hour”

Not only were the Clusia hosts surprised, but even the spectators were taken aback. ‘How could a woman come up to compete?‘ Most of them already knew Jeremiah would be competing. ‘What on earth is going on? Clearly, this is a last- minute switch!‘ Those who were quick to connect the dots remembered Clifford’s serious expression earlier and realized something big must have happened; otherwise, Jeremiah would never have left mid–way. The atmosphere instantly became tense.

The host, confused, quickly looked toward the staff below the stage but was surprised to see Clifford standing to one side. Clifford nodded, giving the host a reassuring look, then took the conversation headset. “Continue.”

The host suddenly understood and, drawing on their professionalism, began to explain the competition rules again.

Clifford watched the figure on stage, rubbing his temples, fatigue and worry evident in his eyes. He hadn’t expected Jeremiah to let Yvette compete in his place. ‘I wonder if this decision is really the right one?‘ However, thinking of Yvette’s identity with Interpol, Clifford felt that perhaps his future daughter–in–law could really surprise him.

On the main stage, Jase subtly glanced at the figure in the center, his gaze deepening. It would be a lie to say he wasn’t surprised; he was completely bewildered about what this kid could or couldn’t do. He began to question whether the information he had was complete. ‘I hope this kid can give the Clusian people another surprise,‘ he thought eagerly.

Kyle, sitting beside Jase, had been watching his movements with keen interest. ‘How could Clusia send a woman to compete? That’s impossible! Even if they’re not using their major general, they could easily grab a few men from the army. What kind of ability is it to have a woman compete? It seems they really have no one left to use. Ybaulla is bound to win this match; they have to reclaim all the dignity they lost in the last round.’

No one noticed that after Clusia’s representative appeared, Kaiden was completely dumbfounded. Standing on stage, he stared blankly at the figure walking toward him leisurely, panic and fear nearly impossible to hide in his eyes. Though his face revealed nothing, he could never forget those eyes–cold and indifferent, devoid of warmth–as if nothing in the world mattered to her.

hand holding the sword trembled slightly. He had never expected that after calculating every angle to keep Jeremiah from competing, he had ended up switching his opponent to a coach. ‘Is God playing tricks on me? Why? Why is the coach competing instead of Jeremiah? What went wrong? I must have
