Night Raid Revolution

Chapter 11: What Are the Odds

A thirty-minute intermission was issued, giving Night Raid and the Jaegers some time before the tournament started.

Night Raid began walking to the dining halls.

"This area is reserved for participants who passed the prelims." A staff member said.

"Yeah, not to be a diva or anything, I'm pretty sure we're good." Lubbock said.

 "A moment." The staff member said as he pulled out a list full of names. "Names please."

Night Raid, Esdeath and Talia listed their names.

"Oh, my mistake." The staff member said. "Please, enjoy yourselves."

Night Raid, Esdeath and Talia continued their walk to the dining hall.

"I hate to state the obvious, but this tournament is going to be a cake walk." Bulat said.

"You said it, Uncle Bro." TJ said. "Two of you will be in the finals easily."

"Easy money... literally." Chelsea said.

"Yeah, money won't do me much good in the Spirit Realm." Tatsumi said. "If I win, I'll just let you guys, have it."

"What about us?" Esdeath said.

"Well, let you guys get a cut." Chelsea said. "Don't get your panties in bunch."

"I'm actually wearing a thong." Esdeath corrected.

"Esdeath, you talk too fucking much." Leone said.

Night Raid entered the café and ordered their food and immediately began scarfing down their food and drinks.

"Here I thought Akame and Kurome were the only ones with deep stomachs." Wave chuckled.

"We were pretty hungry to say the least." Sheele chuckled.

"I fucking love sake." Leone said as she chugged another bottle.

"What is with these people?"  Talia thought.

"Do assassins stomachs have a limit or what?" Esdeath said.

"Assassins?" Talia questioned.

"Esdeath, shut up!" Leone hissed.

"Oh my." Esdeath said. "So secretive."

After fifteen or so minutes, Night Raid, Esdeath, and Talia finished their and left the café.

"Man, that was good." Leone said.

"Anyways, the drawing should be in a few minutes." Najenda said.

As Night Raid, Esdeath and Talia continued walking, they came across to strange individuals who were clad in priest and pastor clothing, similar to that of Bolic and Lord.

One man was short and hovering slightly above the ground and the other was a lot taller standing imposingly beside him.

The shorter man levitated over to Tatsumi.

"Good day to you." The mysterious man said. "Do I have the pleasure of addressing Tatsumi and Night Raid?"

"Yeah, but how do you even know me?" Tatsumi asked.

"Your reputation proceeds you." The mysterious man said. "Many stories surface about your prowess in and out of the ring. I've actually come here to satisfy my curiosity. I've passed the preliminaries like the rest of you, so it'll give us the chance to compete. Don't worry, I'm not foolish enough to think I can defeat you or the rest of your friends. I only wish to learn if the rumors surrounding you all are true. Come now, let us shake hands."
