Legend of the Immortal

That White-Haired Goddess

Beast Capital.

Belle had hidden her scent and laid outside the city on a nearby tree, her presence visible to no one, staring at the adventurers coming and going.

"Ah~ These young innocent little children thinking friends are all they need. So, so innocent." She breathed.

"Oh? It is almost time." A week had passed since the day she had proposed her agreement and she could see many a beast anxiously walking in with weapons of all kinds.

Paladins from holy orders, rogues and assassins from contract killing guilds, adventurers, nobles, monks and many other people from all walks of life were entering the city.

And from the looks of it, they were dressed in their best garbs and wore the best they had to offer.

Whatever for?

Her, of course.

"It makes me feel young again~ Seeing all these men fighting over me~" Belle said, a tinge of melancholy in her speech.

"Well, time to go. Wouldn't want to leave those horny bastards waiting eh?" She snorted as she jumped from the tree, landing gracefully on the ground.

Chanting,"[Gold Bloodstone]," She activated the [Spatial Shunt] of the Vorpal Tiger which allowed for short ranged teleportation of up to five kilometres.

Picturing the sky above the arena, she disappeared from her current spot, unbeknownst to anyone.

Balastian Arena.

The arena was crowded, needless to say.

Spectators lined the seats whilst the queue to enter the actual tournament went on for kilometres, spanning from the stage to the entire circumference of the Arena.

Even then, several thousand were being relocated to different places to await their turn.

The competition was the most talked about thing as rumours of the events prior to the week spread like wildfire.

A woman of unknown race nor family appearing in the midst, attracting several men like flies wandering aimlessly into a fire.

Amongst the men were several important individuals like noble men and famous adventurers and possibly the prince.

Then, proceeding to set up this competition.

Or so the rumours said.

They could only wait and see how it played out.

If both parties kept their words, that woman would appear today, right here in Balastian Arena.

At the very start of the line, was a famous A ranked adventurer, Jay Astine, the Paladin Prince.

A tiger sub-species of the Accutines.

He was almost confident of his win against almost all  of these men in line.

Whilst chatting with some of his fans whom were also participating in the tournament, he awaited her.

She was the most beautiful, most pure thing he had ever seen in his life.

He knew, he had to have her.

That was when it happened.

In the midst of the people's chatters, a blinding red light appeared in the midst of the sky momentarily catching everyone off guard.

The moment the effect wore off, weapons were unsheathed, aimed at the intruder.

That was when her scent appeared.
