Minutes before the end of the last match of the ninth round...
The crowd continued cheering and talking brightly throughout the arena.
Even though the previous fight had already ended, the excitement it had created had not faded.
The battle between Ravenor Burnwick and Vera Ashenlocke had left too strong an impression on everyone who had watched it, and now the spectators were already turning their attention toward the final match of the ninth round.
The next two First-Year Royal Academy students were among the strongest candidates to win the entire tournament.
Especially the already popular Flower of Bergwyn.
Diane Bergwyn.
She was already well known as one of the youngest geniuses of Alchemy and one of the precious young ladies of the Kingdom.
Her name had been spoken throughout the Combat Festival from the very beginning, and her title as the Flower of Bergwyn had only made the attention around her greater.
