The morning sunlight continued to brighten the Royal Academy.
Its light spread across the Main Administrative Center, falling over the wide roads and buildings where people were already moving from one place to another as they prepared for another day of the Grand First-Year Combat Festival.
Although the Young Alchemists had been given a break before the next round, the excitement surrounding the festival had not disappeared.
If anything, the break had given the spectators more time to talk.
Families of Noble and non-Noble status moved through the Main Administrative Center, with many of them heading toward restaurants to eat breakfast before the next matches.
Some children wandered toward the merchandise stalls.
The stalls had already been updated with new merchandise featuring the remaining First-Year students who had made it into the Tenth Round.
