Fighting for fun

With the other participants' resignations and the reduction in rounds and matches, a lot of time had been gained compared to the original plan.

Initially, the final of the tournament was scheduled for after dinner; however, that time was still hours away.

The referees approached Ikky and Shiro to ask them how much time they needed to recover before fighting, and if it was okay to move up the last match.

The two said that they didn't need much time to be 100%, but it seemed okay to have the match just before the classic dinner time (at least in Europe), which would be around seven or seven-thirty in the evening.

Except for some with a more "fine" perception of time, most did not know what time of day it was; according to Ikky and Shiro, it would be 6:00 p.m.

While this was happening, Karslan appeared in the middle of the group of referees. He was not tense, but serious.
