"Come on, Jack!" Asha called out, just then the blue fireball that was following her dispersed and showed a Jack-o-lantern, a pumpkin-headed man who was wearing robes and floating, Kudou jumped from her seat and pointed at the Jack-o-lantern happily., just then Shiroyasha jumped down from her seat and caught everyone's attention, she clapped her hand twice then a done suddenly enveloped the arena.
"Ho, this is an interesting magic, it's like spatial magic," Ains commented from the tunnel, he would be fighting later, Maou who was beside him was also interested in this magic, it didn't take long for the match start, the first one to run away was Kasukabe then Jack and Asha chased after her.
Jack spewed out blue fire from its mouth as it chased after Kasukabe, Kasukabe sidestepped and dodged the attacks, and zig-zagged her step, after a while of chasing Kasukabe turned around and waved her hands, the wind blew out the blue fire that was coming after her and dispersed after that Kasukabe started running away again.
Asha seemed to get impatient and jumped down from Jack's back, and ordered him something, Jack then disappeared from his position and reappeared in front of Kasukabe and smacked her in the chest, I think, anyways his hand was big so Kasukabe was sent flying away.
Kasukabe crashed into the woods and landed on one of the tree branches after that Asha started running to the exit, the rules for the victor was to reach the exit first, meanwhile, Jack chased after Kasukabe while spewing fire to her, just then Kasukabe was cornered with Jack's fire and surrendered.
"The winner is Asha Ignis-Fatuus!" Black Rabbit announced all of the crowd cheered for the winner, after that everyone gathered around Kasukabe and consoled her, Ains and Maou also came out to console her, she was still sad but felt better from everyone, Tanaka also came to console her, inviting her to the lazy cult.
Kasukabe, of course, rejected him, then after that, the next match came, It was Ains against some monster, the victor is the one who defeats their opponent first, Ains easily did it with despair aura, then next match came which was Maou against some Golem, Maou used Telekinesis to slam the golem to the ground turning into rubbles.

That was a very easy fight for them, then the next match came, It was Asha against Ains, they both faced off at the arena and looked at each other, Asha was still cheeky but Ains only laughed it off, meanwhile, Jack was feeling something else from Ains, he can't describe it, but it was the same as death, someone they must not fight, he tried to persuade Asha but she didn't listen, saying No-names is nothing.
Shiroyasha again came into the stage and clapped her hands which covered the arena and in just a moment Ains and Asha along with Jack were now in a grassy field, there were some trees around.
"The rules of the game is the one who first defeats their opponent with their gift, will win this round, and will fight in the finals!" Black Rabbit read the Gease Roll.
Ains and Asha nodded and then the match will start in "3, 2, 1... Start!"
Ains didn't move from his position and only turned into a tree nearby, meanwhile, Jack dragged Asha away and distanced themselves, Ains only stood in front of the tree, he then extended his hands from empty air, and a hole was created out from somewhere.
Ains pulled out a Golden Staff with many ornaments on it, Ains then raised his staff and casted a spell.
"Summon! Primal Fire Elemental!"
One of the orbs in the golden staff lit up and a flame suddenly came out from the tree, the flame started to spread and devoured the tree, strong gust of wind threatening to blow away Jack and Asha, Jack grabbed Asha jumped away and distanced himself some more.
A fire tornado formed a few moments later.
*Roaaaaar!
A loud roar was heard, the fire tornado dispersed and what came out was a being that was made of fire, it had a very intimidating appearance and a large size at that, Ains actually wanted to try if the fire elemental could defeat Jack.
The crowd was surprised from the monster that Ains, summoned, it was very fierce that even though, Ains and the monster was on the other dimension, they could feel its power just from watching, Asha and Jack were also scared from what was in front of them.
"J-jack," Asha nervously said.
"My lady, we cannot defeat that," Jack said as he covered Asha, Asha nodded and yelled, "W-we surrender!"
*Crack
The environment around the cracked and after a few moments they were back at the Arena, loud roars immediately came from the crowd as they looked at the fire elemental behind Ains, Izayoi smiled as he looked at it, he really wanted to fight it so much.
"The Winner is Ains!," Black Rabbit announced.
"AND A SURPRISE! THE NEXT MATCH IS AINS AGAINST MAOU! THE BATTLE OF THE NO NAMES!"
