Tournament Finals 1

The final day of the Pupil Tournament arrived

In the waiting roo device to check the rankings of the participants The naicians and the number of tokens they had were accurately described there

The bottom-most players naturally only had one token and weren't in the waiting room Fortunately for them, no one was interested in the participants at the bottom

”Hey, look at that…!”

”What is it? Oh, the number one rank? Of course, it is… Huh?”

”…Surely there wasn't an error in the tool?”

”It was installed today, so what error could there be?”

”If this is true, how ht?”

The audiencethe leaderboards

It was the last round, so the outline of the winner was revealed in the rankings Participants satisfied with their ranking gave up on any s could lower if they challenged or received a challenge from someone else

For that reason, previous Pupil Tournae of 30 to 40 tokens There had been no big difference between the token counts of the winner and the other challengers

However, what did the top of the leaderboard look like now?

[1st Place: No 13 Sylvia – 95 tokens

2nd Place: No 7 Pogani Wolgast – 21 tokens

3rd Place: No 31 Robert Diane – 18 tokens]

The number of tokens possessed by the person in 1st place surpassed the previous record by nearly double, causing the audience to let out cries of admiration

”9-95 tokens…?!”

”2nd place is only 21 tokens… Doesn't it mean that other people didn't have time to collect the tokens?”

”That is the Blue Tower Master's disciple”

As the disciple of the famous Blue Tower Master Blundell, she was considered as the favourite to win the competition

However, nobody had thought she would reach 1st place with such a ridiculous record It was a contest where young icians participated, but it wasn't easy to establish such an overwhel record

The people who saw the leaderboard naturally looked at the silver-haired girl sitting in a corner of the waiting roo next to her, she would've been buried by those anted to speak to her

The h voice, ”Ah, young people these days have no spirit!”

He was laers for a few days Blundell had tried to give a good experience to his disciple, but the other participants had turned on their tails as soon as her strength had been revealed

Did they want to becoicians who had to live with failure because they were afraid of defeat? Blundell couldn't understand the concept of 'run away'

'It is a chance to coician A lucky opportunity like this is hard to come by!'

The icians in the area stirred uncomfortably every ti around hi as the Red Tower Master Their anxiety grew as he grabbed his staff—no, the club on his back

However, before his temper could explode…

”Goodroom and spoke directly to Blundell, despite the heavy atmosphere

”Ued as soon as he saw the owner of the voice His expression was one which wondered why this person had spoken to him ”Vince's disciple… Yes, aren't you Theodore?”

”Yes, that's right,” Theo replied calmly

He had experienced the presence of the Blue Tower Master once before, so he could tolerate it more easily now In any case, Theo hadn't come here to confront the Blue Tower Master Theo didn't lose his respectful attitude as he looked at Sylvia sitting next to Blundell Sylvia's dreae

'…I don't feel like I am unable to win, unlike before Does it mean I should try it now?'

Unlike when Theo faced the hobgoblin chief, he wasn't feeling a strong sense of tension at this moment There was only a cold chill on the back of his neck It was obvious that she wasn't an easy opponent, but she wouldn't be as difficult as before

Blundell realized the htfully

”Hoh, have you reached the 4th Circle? Congratulations”

”Thank you”

”You wouldn't have looked for me just to hear these words… Perhaps…?”

As Vince had said, the old hed and moved his massive body away the moment he noticed Theo's purpose Theo was now able to meet Sylvia, who had been hidden by Blundell

Her eyes were eotten his existence However, that didn't matter

”Nuht in the Pupil Tournahout the so room

Soe, while others were pleased they could see a funny sight Sylvia just stared at him blankly and parted her pink lips, ”…Me?”

Instead of answering, Theo held out the tokens he had The five tokenssound They were shabby compared to Sylvia's 95 tokens However, the tournae It was a rule to give everyone a chance to ascend to the top,it a perfect opportunity for Theo

Finally, Sylvia rose from her seat”…Okay, I also wanted to reach 100 tokens”

She accepted Theo's challenge
