Meanwhile in a separate part of the Colosseum, the younger generations of the 12 great families were presently gathered in an open room opposite the arena and the large audience that had been cheering.
Most were covered in cloaks while others saw nothing to hide. One of which, Rhett Son Goku and Brett Son Goku. Twins with amicable similar appearance that could only be differentiated with their difference in dressing style.
While one looked reserved and cool-headed with well combed brown hair and white glasses, the other looked rough and scatter brained, with messy brown hair and shiny golden teeth. A similar structure would be their monkey tails.
The others were all wrapped up in cloaks and hoodies that it seemed nearly impossible to distinguish them from their respective families.
"Hey Brett....hmm..from the numbers I'm seeing here. Why do I feel like we're missing a person ?" Rhett, the rough looking one, sat at the end of the window while his brother stood next to him.
"It's as you said, elder brother. It seems someone may be too scared to take this competition with us" Brett said both with similar accents as their Father.
They chuckled. "Well...not as scared as these freaks that refuse to show their faces..." Rhett sighed, turning around to watch the matches that had been going on.
There were a total of 22 in the room, all standing or seated at different positions away from each other.
"...should we at least introduce ourselves..."
A young male voice said, gaining the attention of the others.
"....we're not here to make friends you know and especially not to you shady bunch" Rhett said with disdain in his tone.
"Come on..." the boy slowly dropped his white hoodie.
"Master Jane !" A female standing next to him in a similar coloured cloak cried out in protest.
"Relax Frieda" The boy smiled. He had golden lush hair and pale golden eyes. He looked very much like a girl.
"Oh.....the son and illegitimate child of the Divine family, Lucia". Another male voice said.
A boy slowly dropped his hoodie as well revealing his elf ears and silver hair. "It's alright...you guys can drop yours as well" he said with a sigh and two girls standing behind him dropped their hoodie revealing their elf-ears.
"I see you did your homework....Elven family heir...Darrell Silvan" Jane said with an obviously annoyed expression.
"Isn't it only right you learn about your enemies before entering the Battlefield" Darrell, the male elf asked. He had a very similar appearance to his father though his hair was longer reaching down his back.
"Haven't you heard of the saying? Your father's enemies are not your enemies ?" Jane said with a sigh.
"Oh....that saying..." Another male voice spoke up and slowly the whole room began to reveal their appearances.
All except two that stood at each end of the room.
"You better not forget those words when we meet our Family heads". The boy added. He was tall and lanky with messy hair tied to a bun. He had a Chinese character of art tattooed below his right eye and standing next to him was a girl with messy long black hair and sharp beautiful eyes.
"Raymond and Rebecca Vinci !" A young boy with blue hair in a black overall with white earpads around his neck screamed out as he rushed up to the duo.
"I'm such a big fan of yours !" He cried out with admiration in his eyes.
"This kid" A boy with the same color of hair said, face palming himself.
"Is...is that so..." Raymond, the boy with the tattoo said with a weird smile on his face.
"Don't get excited you dummy !" The girl behind him sighed in disappointment.
"How old is this kid...he looks like my younger brother" A girl said. She had aqua blue hair and eyes. A young boy standing next to her with a similar height as the boy in overall glared at her.
"Elder sister ! I am not a kid !"
"...." the one at the right chuckled. "I don't have time to deal with such an insignificant set of people". He said with a male voice.
"What ?!" Rhett cried out in annoyance. He picked out a needle from his hair and it elongated into a silver staff.
"How dare you ?!"
The room that had seemed merry a minute ago had suddenly turned cold with everyone's annoyed expression fixed on the boy when suddenly they heard a loud chatter behind the door as it suddenly burst open.
They turned towards their left as two guards peeked into the room.
"What is the meaning of this ?!" Jane cried out in annoyance. He seemed more aggravated with the guards than the boy that stood at the end of the room
"I apologize, Master Jane!" One of the guards said.
They were both wearing silver plated armor. An indication of their rank as knight's.
Bronze plated knight's are ranked Rookies, Silver plated are ranked Intermediate, Golden armor are ranked Masters and Diamond armor are ranked Grand Masters.
"A maid and a blind boy keep insisting on letting them in" the second one cried out.
"A blind boy ?" All those in the room were taken aback by his comment. They were all aware of the child that could be mistaken for a blind boy.
"Are you crazy ?! Let him in !" Darrell cried out, taking the knight's by surprise. They looked at each other before attempting to walk away when they stopped in their tracks.
"No need..."
The cold and chill voice crept into the room causing them to shake in astonishment.
Their expressions slowly turned dark and confused as the footsteps on the wooden floor became louder and clearer.
"Please be sure to remember that the other heads of the family are gathered here" A grown up female voice said.
"Hey ! Who let them in ?" One of the knight's asked as he walked up to them in the hallway. "We still need to verify..."
The maid glared at them and their bodies froze in shock stopping them from altering another word. "If the Master heard of this incident...he will surely get upset".
The boy chuckled. "Then you better clear up this incident before my father hears of this".
The footsteps finally ended at the door of the room revealing a white haired boy with pale white eyes.
'I see...then the boy that spoke before must be Jang Kang Lin' Jane said as his gaze focused on the male figure still wrapped in his cloak. 'While the other one must be from the 12th family....' His gaze then focused on the female figure still wrapped in her cloak.
"Oh....A bunch of weaklings in a tight room ey.."
His voice sent a chilling aura into the room.
"What ?!" Rhett screamed out in annoyance.
Jane slowly focused his gaze on the boy before him.
'Just as mother said....he's handsome' He thought as he forced a smile on his face. "Now that's no way to talk to people you're meeting for the first time"
The boy raised a brow as he stared at him. "...oh.....Jane ?"
"...you know of me..?" Jane asked in surprise. 'But he shouldn't have made any contact with the outside world for 5 years...'
"Hmm...that's right...we were introducing ourselves that time too weren't we...." The boy's gaze roamed around the room until it focused on Mariam and his lips grew into a small smile.
"...I am Raffaelo Jun ! The sole son of the Jun household and the whole lot of you..". He raised his hand up in the air forming a thumbs up. " Are going down.." and He turned his thumbs up upside down.
