While walking through the long hallway, Lawrend could hear the cheers from the crowd above. The room before was quite soundproofed from outside, so he didn’t hear them before.
“This is my first time fighting in a stadium like this. It’s more like a colosseum,” Lawrend muttered to himself.
“Colosseum?” Valentina repeated inside his mind.
“It’s nothing,” Lawrend replied.
Most of the time, she was practicing her magic, and she would check on him every now and then. That was why she talked to him now.
After walking for several minutes, he finally arrived at the other side.
There was a man waiting beside the entrance to the stadium. He looked at him in disapproval.
“You took so long. Didn’t you run or fly?” the man asked.
“No one told me,” Lawrend replied with a shrug.
“Tsk. Go on. The audience is waiting,” the man urged.
Lawrend nodded his head and entered the entrance. There was a bright light at the end of the passageway. He walked through it and came out in the middle of the stadium.
Thousands upon thousands of viewers were sitting upon their seats. They cheered as soon as they saw him.
“Ohhhhhhhh!!”
“He looks really young!”
“Huh… You took your time.”
His opponent on the other side looked at him in displeasure.
“Well, no one told me to run. Frankly, I’d rather not waste my energy running or flying,” Lawrend calmly replied.
“Attention! Are the two of you ready?” the referee asked.
He was flying above the middle of the two of them.
Lawrend and his opponent nodded their heads.
“We will see if saving your energy was worth it for you,” his opponent said.
The two of them took a fighting stance.
Lawrend raised his staff, ready to cast his magic. Meanwhile, his opponent held his staff with both of his hands.
“Ready? DUEL!” the referee shouted.
As this was just the preliminary round, the referee didn’t bother introducing the two of them.
Lawrend didn’t move. He waited for his opponent to attack. He was curious as to how the mages from the Alto Federation fought.
“+Shark’s Defiance!+”
The water moisture in the air gathered at the ground and shot up into the air in the form of a shark. It headed in Lawrend’s direction with its mouth wide open.
“Interesting.”
Lawrend smiled. This was the first time he saw a water mage form a creature using their water magic.
“+Lightning Sprite!+” Lawrend shouted and pointed the tip of his staff to the shark.
A single strand of lightning shot out of his staff and split into countless smaller arcs of lightning. They penetrated the body of the water shark and boiled the water back to water vapor.
A cloud of mist scattered out and rose to the top of the stadium.
“That was amazing! No lightning mage did that before!”
“Wow! Such creativity… where did he get his spell?”
The crowds were amazed by Lawrend’s display of power.
“Isn’t it hard to create magic spells? Don’t tell me that was his own unique spell?”
“Yeah. I thought he would use the same boring lightning spell that every lightning mage in the federation knew.”
“This was an eye-opener for me.”
“Who are you?” Lawrend’s opponent asked.
He looked at him seriously. He had fought countless other mages, and he never saw a lightning mage use such a spell. Most of them utilized thunderstorms.
“Does that matter to you?” Lawrend responded.
He wasn’t interested in chit-chatting with a nobody. He was more interested in killing Meno from before. That guy was too arrogant to dare try to take Humility from him.
And so, Lawrend defeated his opponent by using his Lightning Beam spell. He was not able to defend himself.
Lawrend returned to his seat and waited for his next turn.
“Wow! You were great, Master!” Humility exclaimed.
She and Aezel walked up to him with shining eyes.
“He was nothing,” Lawrend calmly replied.
“Fufufufu. Needless to say, that was a brilliant display, Master. It made me wet…”
Aezel’s last word turned into a whisper.
“Shut up, slut.”
“Ahh!”
Instead of getting hurt, a look of euphoria appeared on Aezel’s face. Humility side glanced at her in shock.
“How about you, Humility?” Lawrend turned to her and asked.
“I think you were cool, Master. Hehehehe. We can talk about naughty stuff when we return home,” Humility replied.
She knew proper decorum, unlike Aezel. She would appear as a proper lady outside, but she would show her freaky side on the bed. It was a privilege that only Lawrend was allowed to have.
“Good.” Lawrend nodded his head in approval.
…
Without any suspense, Lawrend fought his way to the Grand Finals. It took them a week, but here he was.
He stood in front of Meno. The two of them eyed each other.
“I can’t imagine that you were actually so strong. It now made sense to me why you were so arrogant. Don’t worry. I won’t treat Humility unfairly,” Meno said.
“Why do you even want her? She’s only good at business and nothing else,” Lawrend asked.
This was something he was most curious about. Now that he was talking to him directly, he thought that it was the perfect chance to ask him about it.
“I’m from the Runic State. I’m the son of the Runic Heavenly Mage. Do you know that everyone in my family is very good at doing business? Each of them can craft artifacts, magic circles, potions, etc. And to make good use of those talents, we naturally had to be very talented in doing business.
“I was taught merchant and business at a young age, but I never succeeded in any of my tests. There is something about me that is incapable of doing trade. That was why I sought to have Humility as my wife. She would complement my bad traits, and I will protect her. It doesn’t seem like a bad idea, doesn’t it? So why don’t you offer her up to me?”
Lawrend was taken aback by his words. He doesn’t seem like a bad man at all. If his story was true, then he would surely treat Humility with care. But of course, Lawrend would not allow Humility to be taken away from him.
“I refuse.”
