Inside the Grand Colosseum
Inside one of the Grand Colosseum's waiting rooms, Reina sat beside Emilia and Flamme, the three of them looking toward the girl standing in front of them.
Vanessa, who was currently wearing her usual hood, stared back at them with an expression that was becoming increasingly helpless by the second.
After all, this was supposed to be her private waiting room.
Yet, for some reason, the three girls had decided to barge in and occupy it as though they owned the place.
And while Vanessa appreciated their concern, she was beginning to wonder whether having them around was actually helping her calm her nerves or simply making things worse.
"You guys are just making me more nervous now..."
Vanessa muttered, rubbing her forehead.
"What?!" Flamme immediately raised her voice. "After we came here to emotionally support you, you're complaining now?!"
Vanessa opened her mouth, only to find herself at a loss for words.
