While the people around were discussing fervently, Basil Jaak fished out his draw from the box.
Number two.
At this moment, the square fell completely silent, and the elder hosting the event asked the four who drew lots to report their numbers.
"According to the rules, number one will duel number four, and number two will duel number three. Therefore, I announce, the next round's pairs are: Karson versus Caspar, Basil Jaak versus Adrain."
"Oh!"
When the elder announced the pairings, everyone around was taken aback.
The day outside Blair's house courtyard, Basil Jaak's roar of "Arnold is dead, spare those who surrender" seemed to still echo in the ears, with quite a few people having witnessed Basil Jaak killing Arnold.
Thus, in their eyes, the final two spots should definitely have belonged to Basil Jaak and Adrain.
But the draw turned out to be so dramatic – these two, expected to be the finalists, had to meet earlier in the competition!
