Everyone turned to look at Xaviera, who blinked and asked with a look of surprise, "Why are you asking me? You've all made your decision - does it still matter if you ask me? If I don't agree, will you listen to me?"
The judge's face darkened instantly, "Miss Cynthia, does that mean you disagree with our decision?"
Quinn Powell's mouth revealed a cold smile. Xaviera was actually questioning the judges in public, which was just plain foolish.
Xaviera chuckled, "I agree! If the judges think Miss Powell is the champion, then so be it. But shouldn't you ask Mr. Twilight and the jury for their opinions too? They're not just here as decorations, they should express their views as well."
The surrounding area became quiet in an instant, and Quinn Powell's body suddenly tensed up.
Yigol Mamet, in the audience, swallowed hard as he watched Xaviera's seemingly smiling-but-dangerous demeanor.
