“What a piece of cake!”

“That was rough...”

Amur had dominated the preliminaries easily, but it seemed Blanca had really struggled.

“Why did all the strongest competitors have to be in my bracket?” he complained.

Blanca had said he’d been in a formidable group. If those opponents had been in other groups, they all would’ve made it to the finals instead of losing to him. He said there were even some who Amur might’ve had a hard time beating. To back this up, Amur said she had given a silent prayer when she had seen who Blanca was up against.

“Just so you know, I didn’t interfere with anyone’s bracket other than separating Amur and Blanca,” Hana said.

“Of course. If you’d said you manipulated the brackets with that group, that would’ve looked like you wanted me to lose!” Blanca said.

If I had to rank people from the SAR in terms of strength, Hana would be first and Blanca second. Viscount Lobo would be third, and Amur would rank somewhere around eighth. Blanca’s bracket had contenders ranging from the fourth to seventh strongest, and there were some others there who were believed to be within the top twenty strongest people in the SAR.

“The only way I lucked out was because none of them ganged up on me,” he said.

The prelims had been held battle-royale style, just like in the capital. The top contenders had targeted their rivals first, leaving only the weaker opponents for Blanca to handle.

But after the top contenders had beaten their rivals, they had attacked Blanca one-on-one melee style without weapons. Since he’d had the most energy remaining, he emerged victorious. He just had a really swollen face now from the battle.

Amur’s group had consisted of weaker opponents who had all ganged up on her, but she had easily defeated them.

The brackets had been decided by a public drawing, and other than separating Amur and Blanca, no tampering had been possible. As a result, the audience’s reactions had shifted from excitement to disappointment and then to laughter as the strong contenders had kept popping up in Blanca’s group, making the final outcomes predictable.

“Looks like the lottery’s going to start.”

The final preliminary round ended, and we were resting in the waiting room. Gramps then came to let us know that the lottery for finals was beginning. Gramps had acted as my manager during the prelims and watched the matches from the VIP seating area.

Once Blanca heard Gramps’s announcement, he stood up slowly. He then took some deep breaths to gather his focus before walking confidently to the lottery area. From a distance, he seemed fine, but I noticed that his legs were trembling. I figured he was trying to hide his weakened state from his future opponents.

Amur would occasionally bump into him, pretending it was by accident, but he bonked her on the head right before they entered the lottery area. Because of that, she was holding her head in pain when it was time to draw lots.

The crowd erupted in cheers when we appeared in the drawing area.
