Standing in the glaring sunlight of the arena, Lucian's gaze naturally drifted toward the VIP box. Behind the massive enchanted glass windows, his eyes met with his father, Duke Valemont. The Duke maintained his usual unreadable blank expression as his gaze equally fixed on him. Sitting right next to him was, Duchess, and slightly behind them were his younger sisters, Cassia and Lysandra, watching the arena with keen interest.
"Huh..." Lucian murmured with a mocking smirk. "Cold as always. Let's see how long you can keep that stone-faced expression of yours today."
His gaze then shifted away from the VIP box down to the general spectator stands. There, amidst the massive crowd, Aria was waving both her hands in the air, cheering for them with absolute enthusiasm. She had a bright, innocent smile on her face that looked completely out of place in this blood-pumping atmosphere.
