"Yes, sir. I won't disappoint you," I replied before going to check out the arena.

As I walked through the long and winding halls for a few minutes, I ran into an eerie silence, as if everything had been muted around me.

p "What is it?" I asked the boy with pink hair.

As I turned around, I saw his arrogant smile peering out from the corners of the full face mask, and as he took a step towards me, I sighed, a bit disappointed in him.

"If you want to settle this now, let's do it. I don't give a shit about a formal arena, so we can actually fight… let's test our skills right here. You and me. Or… are you scared? Can you only hide behind your big daddy?" He taunted me.

Fighting him in this situation would be bad… he's already clearly coated this place in his magic, so if I make a stupid move, he'll just fuck me up.

I have to admit, the guys brought by the Lunascar head are strong… but that's only in magic because physically, I'd say they were the weakest.

They might even be weaker than Cy and Findir, who have literally never even killed classed up before… okay, that's a bit of a stretch, but you get what I mean.

And thankfully, a girl with red hair interfered with the conflict.

"Stop this tomfoolery. Do you really want to piss off the heads when they're in such a good mood?" Bella asked the both of us, and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes despite me having a mask covering my face.

"You're still green," The pink-haired boy said before snapping his fingers and walking away.

The silence around me disappeared, and the slight rumble of rocks echoed through the halls. The only other thing within my senses was one fading heartbeat and one strong heartbeat.

"Were you nervous?"

"Very… Fooooo… I thought he was going to kill me," Bella replied as she placed her hand on her chest and leaned back with a strong sigh of relief.

"Also, just cause you saved me doesn't mean I owe you anything. If I asked for help, sure, but you just came on your own," I muttered before walking away.

"IT'S FINE! I WASN'T PLANNING ON ACQUIRING A FAVOR ANYWAY!" She shouted, and it didn't seem to have any sarcasm in it.

After walking for a few more minutes, I finally arrived at the large arena, which was completely silent. Not even a single judge was there.

When I walked through the entrance, a gust of wind blasted me in the face.

"Perfect," I muttered with an ear-to-ear grin.

As I stepped onto the dirt, I noticed it felt almost like sand rather than a hard surface, but I've seen these types of arenas before.

The sand will harden with magic once the fighting starts, and this is to make sure nobody gets an instant headstart.

Theoretically, you could be dashing towards your opponent before the round starts as you haven't hit him yet, but this also kind of catches opponents off guard, swaying the fight in their favor.

It's a small reason that needs a big change… I don't still don't get it, though.

I continued to walk across the dirt arena, and some other assistants had come to feel it out as well, but now that it was under the surveillance of the head of the Challac family, nobody was going to make any stupid moves.

"Found it…" I muttered to myself before creating a small needle of [Tangible Bloodlust] near the bottom of my shoe.

As I made my way out of the arena, this needle created a thin trail of more bloodlust that intertwined itself within the sand.

"Okay, the first match will be between Owl, from the Lunascar family, and Lin, from the Humblecrest family," The Challac head announced, and everybody went to go take their seat.

None of the heads really complained about the comfortability as these were the only seats here, and creating some thrones that they would use every like five years would be pointless.

The two contestants were one boy from the Lunascar family, the one I had encountered earlier, and one girl from the Humblecrest family.

Soon, the match started, and the ground beneath them instantly hardened, but as the two went at it, I paid more attention to the arena.

Small cracks were visible, and I couldn't contain my smile as I saw them slowly widen underneath the pressure of these two powerful forces.

BOOM

Lin, the girl from the Humblecrest family, had exploded with a yellow aura and behind her looked to be a large lion that arrogantly looked down on the boy before them.

Her hair slowly began to grow fluffier with each passing second, and it even grew past her waist, untying itself from the bun sitting atop her head.

I don't see the boy winning this…

The boy had drawn a bow of pink aura, and it slowly radiated and thin, pink mist which was capsulated within the arena.

It was clearly meant to slow his opponent down, but with the buff that had been applied to the girl, she wasn't going to be stopping anytime soon.

FWOOSH

The arrow had soon reached its full draw and was quickly released, causing it to tear through the air and rip through the girl's body… just kidding.

Her after the image had been destroyed to pieces, but her actual body was still fine, and the boy was too clueless as once he started to cheer, he was knocked to the ground.

A fist covered in lion fur smashed against the back of his head, knocking him unconscious… but this wasn't your regular spar.

BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM

He was showered in a flurry of punches, and the sounds of his bones breaking ran throughout the air… and the Lunascar head didn't even bat him an eye.

Humble my ass…
