Final Already?

Amidst the buzz of the crowd, Lyon's keen eyes caught a subtle exchange of whispers between the announcer and one of the officials. The official's demeanor seemed urgent, and the words spoken were too low for Lyon to discern. A faint crease appeared on Lyon's forehead as he observed this clandestine communication. It hinted at something out of the ordinary, a twist in the competition that remained shrouded in mystery. 

The announcer's voice boomed across the arena, carrying the weight of the moment. "Ladies and gentlemen, we have reached the final round of the Felidora Tournament!" A wave of anticipation swept through the crowd. This was the culmination of a fierce competition that had gripped the kingdom's attention.

The announcer's voice rang through the grand arena, echoing off the towering walls. The crowd's murmurs hushed, and all eyes turned to the center of the arena where Lyon stood, his posture relaxed but eyes sharp.
