Chapter 419 Final Round
???????????????????Since Emilia only pulled Crystal to the side of the field, she was naturally aware that pressing her lips against the girl's cheek might not just be witnessed by hundreds of people in the stands, but also millions of viewers on TV.
??Of course, compared to consoling her little girlfriend, this kind of thing was of little concern to Emilia. After all, she never intended to hide it in the first place.
??Someone as observant as Crystal would obviously never miss such a detail either, and the heroine couldn't help but be a little overwhelmed with embarrassment as she reluctantly pushed Emilia away. "S-Stop, e-everyone is watching!"
??The crimson-haired girl grinned playfully and pinched Crystal's slightly chubby cheek before stepping back. "Okay, but you're not allowed to brood in the second half, got it? Don't worry about winning so much and just have fun. After all… with me by your side, is it possible for us to lose?"
??Had someone else heard her words at this moment, they would surely have scoffed. Not to mention that their scores were currently tied evenly, but Dixie's performance wasn't really any worse than her own, so how could she still be so arrogant?
??To Crystal, however, Emilia's confidence and pride were not only extremely pleasing to the eye, but also completely warranted.
??With how easily she used to handle them before, the blonde girl fully believed that Emilia could easily steamroll the opponent team as long as she wished to do so.
??The only reason she hadn't already done that must be either because she wanted to make the match look more exciting, or because she just wanted to have some fun.
??When the two of them walked back to their other two teammates, both Koko and Adele also tried their best to cheer Crystal up in their own way.
??Of course, while the blonde girl definitely appreciated the glass of cold water from Adele, she could only smile helplessly upon being bombarded with all kinds of raunchy gossip that Koko had managed to collect in the past few weeks.
??She really had no interest in knowing who was trying to 'experiment' with who, alright? She already knew much more than she needed to. Unfortunately, there was no way for the polite heroine to douse Koko's enthusiasm when the girl was only trying to 'help' her, and going by Emilia's teasing smile, she had absolutely no intention of helping her out at all.
??Luckily for Crystal, the break time ran out within minutes, and the four of them had to get back on their horses and return to the center of the field.
??Once the fourth play started, both Emilia and Crystal seemed to have completely transformed.
??The crimson-haired girl had clearly outclassed everyone else in terms of her individual skill level from the start, but her advantage hadn't really been too overwhelming before.
??With Dixie's powerful mallet and her teammates coordinating so seamlessly, it hadn't been easy for Emilia to control the situation much.
??Now, however, it didn't look like the opponents could stop her at all.
??As long as they allowed the crimson-haired girl to get close to the objective, they could only 'accompany' her helplessly the rest of the way to the goal.
??Crystal, who had seemed hopeless before, also scored two goals for her team in the next two plays, completely overturning the previous perception of the audience.
??It wasn't clear which one of them influenced the other more, but no one could deny that Emilia's 'consolation' was very, very effective.
??The audience couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
??"Do you think it's possible that she rubbed some of her talent off on the other girl in that kiss?"
??"Heh, more like the other girl got too much 'motivation' to prove herself."
??Of course, while some speculated on their possible relationship, there was no way for anyone to come to a concrete conclusion without asking the relevant parties directly.
??With the crimson-haired girl's status, that was easier said than done before. Now, however, the audience had some hope of getting their hands on 'gossip' from the broadcasting team.
??After all, with how much they had invested into this live show, they must be quite eager to make it spicy and exciting as well, right?
??Naturally, most of them didn't believe there was really anything between the two of them.
??After all, with what they had been able to observe so far, Emilia was quite 'close' with more than just a few girls. More than likely, it was just her way of getting along with those she considered friends.
??The other girl's reaction to her kiss might be considered a little too exaggerated for just being a friend, but it was only to be expected if she had a crush on the crimson-haired beauty, which wouldn't be too much of a surprise.
??After all, with her gorgeous appearance and playful personality, perhaps only those with zero sexual attraction to girls could avoid being 'doomed' to covet her for themselves.
??But given how Emilia seemed to enjoy teasing girls, perhaps even the ladies who believed themselves to be the straightest of steel pipes would be able to discover just how high their flexural strength really was.
??Of course, with most of their eyes focused on her, Emilia didn't disappoint anyone at all. Not only did she continue scoring goals for her team, she did so with an unspeakable grace and beauty in her moves that left the audience breathless.
??But the more domineering the 'Crimson Princess' was, the harder the 'Golden Knights' tried to fight back.
??After all, Emilia's knights didn't want to disappoint their princess, and Thea didn't want to be on the wrong end of Penny and Dixie's glare at the end of the match.
??It was better to squeeze everything she could out of herself and make one more goal, than to wait for 'death' later.
??While they couldn't change the final outcome, their combined efforts still ended up making the match a lot more exciting.
??The audience couldn't help but cheer when the crimson-haired girl broke through the 'siege' of two opponents and managed to snag the ball from the third before managing to secure the last goal.
??Although it was still the same outcome they had been expecting for a long time, they couldn't deny that they had a lot of fun watching it happen.
??Of course, there were more than a few faces that turned ugly when Emilia didn't make a fool of herself from the start to finish, but they weren't stupid enough to jump out at this moment and attract needless ridicule.
?????????????????
??Compared to the people who were able to watch it all in person, the audience of the live show was actually more interested in the 'personal interview' promised by the channel after the match.
??A few days ago, most people only knew that Emilia was the precious young daughter of one of the richest families in the country, and more still hadn't heard about her at all.
??Over the last few days, however, her clips and images had rapidly spread through both social media and private messages, and it would no longer be an exaggeration to call her a 'celebrity'.
??Naturally, with this newfound popularity came a lot of curiosity directed towards the girl, and people weren't satisfied with just what they got from the first interview at all.
??Compared to the thoughts of the princess in the show, they were more interested in the thoughts of this real 'princess' instead.
??For those who had the ability to reach out and 'inquire', this little beauty's mere mention seemed to spark either intense hate, or overwhelming fanaticism.
??It was as if everyone who knew her was obsessed with her one way or the other.
??Inevitably, this information spread to various parts of the community, and increased the curiosity about the topic even further.
??What was it about Emilia White that made people so polarized? Why must they either love or hate her? Wasn't it possible to just not care about her?
??Of course, it couldn't be denied that the girl was gorgeous, but that didn't explain this phenomena much. No matter how beautiful or handsome someone was, not everyone liked the same thing.
??Under their curious and eager eyes, the crimson-haired beauty on the TV grinned brightly and waved at the camera, and then turned to face the neatly dressed woman on the opposite sofa.
??The interviewer in front of her was still the familiar one from the first day, but this time she appeared much more calm as she smiled. "Miss Emilia, this time we gathered a bunch of questions from our audience for you. We will pick some at random each time, alright?"
