Lucien who saw the whole thing transpiring could only sigh softly, he knew what Cedric was planning but he just gave a faint smirk.
"Well things are about to get very interesting."
The king nodded to Adam's response. "Hm, very well. A short duel it is then. No killing blows are allowed. The royal arena is free, let's see what the first year freshmen apex can do."
All the servants bowed and moved swiftly preparing extensively for the duel. And soon enough everyone was now gathered inside the royal training arena.
It was. Vast marble hall that has golden runes that were circling the floor and it there was a viewing platform from above, this was where the royal family now sat.
Cedric just leaned back having a smug grin as his knight stepped forward with absolute confidence.
