Chapter 195 Sibling rivalry?

"Emily?" The voice came at first. n))O-/V)-E--l()b//I/-n

Emily didn't quite catch it the first time, "Hey Emily!" The voice called again.

Emily immediately turned, and behold it was Evelyn, her sister, standing a bit far from her.

Evelyn was wearing a red jersey, not wearing football boots, and had a red bandana on her head.

"Evelyn," Emily exclaimed excitedly and dropped her luggage, rushing towards Evelyn.

As she got to her, Emily hugged Evelyn tightly, but Evelyn, however, gave her a light and cold embrace back.

"How have you been, sister?" Emily asked joyfully.

"I'm better than you, at least my legs are all good," Evelyn replied with a smirk.

Instantly, the expression on Emily's face changed from a joyful one to a blank and almost sad face.

Emily sighed and replied, saying, "never took you for a football fan. Why are you here?" Evelyn laughed and replied, "take a long stare at me, do I look like all these jobless freaks that sit down and watch? I'm a player, bitch!"

"You now play football?" Emily asked surprised.

Evelyn was one that has never fancied playing football since childhood, but it's kind of surprising that she now plays football.

"You can say that again!" Evelyn said.

"Oh, nice." Emily replied plainly.

"I hope your team and mine are in the same group. I'd love to see your faces when you lose." Evelyn said.

Emily just laughed faintly without giving her a response.

"I heard mum is still the Coach and you're now the star player. What a shame!" Evelyn continued.

As they were talking, a guy wearing the same red jersey as Evelyn walked out of a corner and called her, saying, "Eve, your attention is needed!"

The guy was really tall, muscular, and fierce-looking.

"I'm fed up with seeing you losers. Let me go feed my eyes with winners in my hostel," Evelyn said as she spat on the ground before taking her leave.

"Silence is the best answer given to a fool!" Emily said as Evelyn was taking her leave.

Emily's reply infuriated Evelyn, and she turned to Emily, saying, "You really want to be crippled once more, huh?" Evelyn said those words with her fingers pointing at Emily.

"Come and give it a try then!" Emily replied.

Kan, having noticed the tension between them, started moving closer, trying to prevent a fight that might break out.

As he came a bit closer, Evelyn saw him and stopped ranting.

She stared at Kan for a few moments before the same muscular guy who came out before called her once more.

The Great Hall exuded an air of anticipation as players took their seats, their collective energy pulsating through the room.

The hall, adorned with banners and emblems of various schools, had an elevated platform at the front where officials sat, overseeing the event.

Rows of neatly arranged chairs filled the hall, each one occupied by a player eagerly awaiting the draw.

The atmosphere buzzed with a mix of excitement and tension, the room illuminated by ambient lighting that highlighted the significance of the impending event.

The officials, dressed in distinguished attire, sat at a table on the elevated platform, armed with sheets and equipment necessary for the draw.

The players' chatter gradually hushed as they waited for the proceedings to commence, their eyes fixed on the front where the officials prepared to reveal the matchups.

Kan, Emily, and Wick walked in together, searching for the designated area prepared for their school.

Coach Nami approached them, guiding them to their seats at the end of the designated space, and they settled in, awaiting the commencement of the event.

It was evident that some schools were still finding their way into the Great Hall, leaving a few spaces empty.

After a few minutes, a group of students hurriedly occupied the seats behind them, filling the hall. The event commenced with officials extending welcoming remarks to the attending schools.

However, Kan, Emily, and Wick found it challenging to focus on the officials' words due to the noise and commotion from the players behind them, who were engrossed in chatter and eating.

Abruptly, a cup of liquid substance spilled onto Emily's clothes.

The players responsible didn't offer an apology but continued their conversation. Annoyed, Emily turned to identify the culprits.

Upon turning back, she identified her sister, Evelyn, another lady, and a guy as the culprits behind the drink spill.

"You splashed your drink on my clothes," Emily said.

"Yeah, I did," Evelyn replied.

"Next time, try keeping it close to your mouth and stop swinging it around," Emily retorted before turning to face the officials.

Evelyn, looking for a confrontation, asked, "Else what? Huh?"

"What?" Emily inquired, not catching Evelyn's remark.

"What will you do if I splash it on you again?" Evelyn challenged, wearing a provocative expression.

Emily, recalling her mom Coach Nami's advice to behave, smiled back at Evelyn and turned away.

Unhappy with this response, Evelyn angrily splashed her drink on Emily once more. In the process, some of the drink spilled onto Wick's clothes.

Wick, caught off guard, turned violently, raising his hand to strike her.

In a split second, before he could act, Kan intervened, grabbing Wick's hand and preventing him from making a mistake.

Kan faced Wick and shook his head, signaling him not to act impulsively. Despite his dissatisfaction, Wick, recalling Coach Nami's advice, opted to sit down and mind his own business.

Unaware of Kan's intervention, Evelyn only noticed him when he stood up.

"Aww, someone with sense," she giggled, whispering something to her friends, who burst into laughter. Observing this, Emily shrugged it off and turned her back to them.

Evelyn, seemingly intrigued by Kan, moved closer to his seat and whispered in his ear, "Hey, handsome!"
