Coolest Girl in Town

Singing and dancing in a harmonious setting came to mind when Elise heard the words 'cultural festival'.

When it was associated with children, celebrations generally featured adorable performances. What the audience wanted to see was the kids' innocence and vigor. However, she knew that the Triune's cultural festival must be different, so she moved closer to the wall to get a better view.

Several men surrounded the plaza to maintain order. They were clad in the clothes of medieval European guards with swords in their hands. Geez! Talk about looking intimidating.

The person giving instructions to the kids was a woman. Her clothes were similar to those of the other guards, but she was supposed to be of a higher rank.

"All of you, go up there!" the woman ordered while pointing at the platform that was just as tall as she was.

The kids divided themselves into two groups and went up the steps in an orderly manner. Soon, the platform was crammed with people. Some of them could only stand on the steps or near the fences.

"Listen up. Two people will form a group. You can choose your partner freely. The only thing you have to do is to push everyone else off the platform. Only one group will be left."

When the woman finished explaining the rules, she activated the timer and said, "You only have five minutes. Start now."

The next moment, the kids on the platform flared up like oil in a frying pan. The kids on the steps were pushed down before they even managed to form into groups.

Nevertheless, they were considered lucky. The woman was lanky, and the fences around the platform were about 1.6 feet tall. In other words, the platform was about 6.5 feet in height. The ground was made from cement. If fragile kids like them fell to the ground, they might hurt their necks and brains, which were no laughing matter.

These people are so mentally distorted by letting kids take part in such a cruel game. Elise furrowed her brows, for she was concerned about these kids.
