The Academy Magic Competition arrived as scheduled, with the Tower mandating that every apprentice, regardless of whether they were competing, must attend the opening match and final. On this day, the crowd was packed, banners flying high.
In an arena resembling the ancient Roman Duel Arena, Lynch sat together with Subaru and the others in the stands, each clutching a bag of Forest-flavored beans, cheering for the apprentices they knew.
"Lanice, go for it!"
"Leon, go for it!"
Many apprentices Lynch and his group knew—or more accurately, most apprentices—participated in this competition, whether from the Outer Ring or the Inner Ring.
After all, the rewards offered by the Tower this time were exceptionally generous.
