It was a bright, sunny day—one of those rare, perfect mornings where the weather settled into a gentle warmth.
The sun was out, yet the heat wasn't harsh; instead, it felt comforting, like the world itself was eager to celebrate.
"Now, I officially declare the start of Lumen Academy's first ever Grand Festival Tournaments! Everyone, I welcome you all—please do enjoy it to the fullest!"
Principal Leilah's voice rang out powerfully, echoing through the entire academy grounds.
Her words were carried not just by magic amplification but also across seven enormous holographic screens floating above the designated festival zones.
Each projection shimmered with clarity, displaying her dignified figure and bright smile.
A second later—BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Brilliant magical fireworks exploded across the sky in dazzling arcs of color.
Trails of stardust-like mana scattered through the air, causing cheers to erupt all around.
