"He actually made it to the finals!"
In the audience, Alfred Weaver’s face lit up with surprise. "It seems he’s had some rare alchemy adventures in recent years. Truly remarkable..."
Cecilia Browning likewise wore a look of astonishment, her gaze towards Carson Flores softening considerably.

Though Alfred Weaver hadn’t explicitly spoken about his feelings for Carson Flores, Cecilia Browning could sense from Alfred’s subtle remarks that his attitude towards Carson was anything but ordinary.
Carson Flores was Alfred Weaver’s lifesaver, but Alfred’s demeanor towards him seemed to go beyond mere gratitude.

Cecilia Browning, with the scrutinizing gaze of a Celestial Palace senior, evaluated Carson Flores carefully.

Finals day.
Ricardo Tate and Carson Flores stood at the entrance of the tournament arena, surrounded by people whose eyes sparkled with respect and admiration.
