The crowd cheered, though a fair number booed just as loudly, not too fond of arrogant Rifters unless they had what it took to back it up.
Akira raised her chin, unbothered by the mixed reactions.
"Whenever you're ready, Your Highness."
Gamemaster Gamble passed the dice to her again and got out of her way.
Akira used the same technique to roll the dice, sending them flying everywhere before they landed in front of her.
[FORTUNE: 4]
[CALAMITY: 3]
[TOTAL: 7]
"Fortune wins!" Gamble announced. "Seven tiles forward!"
The invisible wall before the Start tile faded away, revealing a tile lit up in gold... FORTUNE TILE!
It was calling for her, and Akira didn't reject the call.
The moment she willed it, her body teleported onto the golden seventh tile, like someone had plucked her from above and placed her down.
Levi and the rest of the Rifters remained behind, but a dimensional window opened before each of them, allowing everyone to watch.
