We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

Chapter 1879 The Warriors’ Tournament

A series of commotions sounded from outside. Suddenly, Sodo stumbled into view and shouted toward the yard, "Elisa! I'll marry you after the warriors' tournament!"

He let out a scream after that.

It was because Mrs. Kella hit him, sending him running away.

Then, Mrs. Kella returned to the yard, grumbling under her breath. She was probably scolding Sodo.

Elisa asked curiously, "Mrs. Kella, what's the warriors' tournament?"

Mrs. Kella's expression turned strange. She looked at them and sighed.

"Did you hear everything?"

Elisa and Gareth stayed silent, amounting to a quiet affirmation.

Mrs. Kella grumbled. "Sodo, that br*t, keeps causing trouble. I told them not to let him come here. This is bad…"

Her usually rosy face suddenly turned ashen.

Elisa and Gareth were even more confused.

Mrs. Kella sighed and looked at them. "Are you sure you want to know?"

Gareth turned to Elisa. The latter nodded.

Mrs. Kella closed the gate and locked it before hurrying into the house.

She did not slow down as she said, "Please follow me."

Elisa found the matter suspicious. What is it that we need to talk about it behind closed doors?

She and Gareth exchanged glances before following Mrs. Kella.

Once in the house, Mrs. Kella opened three coconuts and poured coconut water into a few cups before serving them to Elisa and Gareth.

Elisa accepted it and took a sip. It felt refreshing.

The weather was hot in the fishing village at this time of the year. Furthermore, the sunlight was so intense that her skin felt in danger of sunburn.

With abundant sunlight and warm temperature, it was no wonder everyone in this village had beautifully tanned skin.

The coconut water was not chilled. In other words, there was not a refrigerator anywhere in this village.

Still, the coconuts were cool when stored indoors. Moreover, the water from the newly opened coconuts was surprisingly cold and refreshing to drink.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Kella hesitated on how she should bring up the matter.

It was only until Elisa finished half a cup of the coconut water that Mrs. Kella said, "Your arrival coincided with the warriors' tournament, an important event held in this village once every three years. Everyone will take a break from work and gather together on that day."

Elisa nodded to indicate that she understood.

That sounds like a New Year celebration. Perhaps even more significant.

After all, New Year is celebrated yearly, but the warriors' tournament happens once every three years.

Mrs. Kella continued, "Only men can participate in this warriors' tournament. They have to go through three challenges. The final winner gets to request something from the village chief, and the village chief cannot refuse."

Elisa nodded.

Gareth's expression darkened. He gripped the cup so tightly that he nearly crushed it.

He finally understood what Sodo said.
