He did not want to think of what it would be like to get attacked by Antonio, as even the thought of it scared him witless.
Antonio waited for another moment before he stepped back and Ethan stepped forward, he did not know whether to laugh or to cry.
An hour ago he completed DADA with Harry and here he was again having a duel with him, though this time he was not needed to hide his powers but he cannot let them lose either as it might even demolish the complete castle.
Harry once again bowed and Ethan felt very bad, he never wanted such great wizards like Harry to bow in front of him, he felt disgusted of himself for doing it but he had no other option than gritting his teeth and accepting the curtsy, so as to not endanger the former's life.
"Your Highness, I beg your pardon" Harry said politely and respectfully as he made sure to keep is eyes trained to the floor.
Ethan nodded in acknowledgement and Harry prepared his wand as he aimed it at Ethan. Harry did not know what to do, he was teaching Ethan just few hours ago and here he was dueling with his own student.
Harry wanted to test the waters and charged with a relatively simpler hex, but it was effortlessly blocked by Water shield.
Harry was relieved when he realised that Ethan's powers were also on par with Antonio's powers, he then started with more powerful hexes and his speed increased tremendously as well.
All the students were watching it while holding in their breathes, though the duel with Antonio was also nerve wracking, this duel was between two people they both recognized from before.
Ethan was known for three things, his honey sweet smiles, kindness and dueling skills. He was already on the top of dueling scale when among the students, now when he was dueling with Harry who also known for his great dueling skills everyone was holding their breaths in anticipation.
The duel lasted longer than the one with Antonio, but Ethan was standing elegantly without slightest hint of seriousness in his eyes.
If a third person were to see him right now they might even think he was posing for a photoshoot. Harry was in a great dilemma, he knew that the Heirs were bound to be the most powerful throughout and after their reign yet it was hard to digest.
Harry bowed in respect and Ethan nodded in acknowledgement as he stepped back and Aria stepped forward.
Unlike the previous two Aria was excited for this duel as Harry was her role model since she started learning spells and hexes.
"Your Highness, I beg your pardon" Harry said in a respectful tone as he bowed towards Aria.
The latter's heart broke into pieces when the person she idolized had to bow in front of her and also 'beg pardon' from her. She was about to speak up in protest when she felt a strong tug gown, reminding her to keep her composure.
She could only grit her teeth and nod in acknowledgement, Harry then nodded in respect and prepared his wand as he started throwing hexes at an average speed. After confirming her ability and speed of reaction he doubled his speed in a blink of an eye.
At first Aria did not use her shield as the speed of the hexes were very slow for her and she could manage it without a shield but later, she slowly realised that the speed doubled and her excitement also bubbled up a bit.
