– Frey Starlight's POV –
Today…
The first day of the tournament.
"Huff... huff…"
Sweat streamed down my face as I continued doing push-ups without pause.
"500... 501… 502…"
I moved without stopping, determined to shake off the sluggishness clinging to my muscles.
I had to be in peak condition if I wanted even a sliver of a chance to win—especially when my opponents were the best of the best.
Last night, I returned to the Temple in secret.
I stayed awake all night, working with Carmen to restore my body.
I didn't need sleep anymore. I had already slept for nearly a week.
And today…
I would face Seris Moonlight.
I hadn't seen her in a long time—and ironically, the moment I did, I'd be forced to draw my sword against her.
I kept moving.
Today, that part of the Temple would finally be opened.
The World Arena—the place that would host the finals of the Victoriad.
