Back to the present…
The moment the countdown ended, the crowd shouted the word BEGIN together, and the sound rolled across the enormous Arena like a wave.
"BEGIN!!!"
Veda's hand immediately moved into his Space Bag with quick speed.
At almost the exact same moment…
Clap!
Sasha's hands came together.
Cognis flowed through her veins and traveled through both arms before gathering in her palms, where the Scarlet Cognis spread outward and formed an Alchemy Circle filled with the Alchemy symbols needed for creating a Flame Alchemy.
The Circle formed with a steady scarlet glow.
Adept-rank Flame Alchemy.
Veda's hand came out of his Space Bag holding a Repeater Sword Rifle.
His black eyes immediately focused on Sasha's shoulder.
He remembered what she had told him before the match.
Don't hold back.
Those words were still fresh in his mind.
