Lucas's eyes fluttered open. His brain took some time to recollect his memories before he began frantically looking around.
All Lucas could see was a green eyed girl with blue eyes looking at him with worry. Her brows were knitted together, and her lip corners were curved down.
"How did I get here?" Lucas asked. He vividly remembered accepting his punishment in a deserted area of the guild.
"I don't know! You just appeared out of thin air!" Lily yelled as if she had seen a ghost.
'She probably jumped out of her skin, hehe.'

"What are you smiling about?!" Lily screamed in Lucas's ear.

"You might have to get ready for the duel." Lily advised with a mocking smile on her face.
'Duel?' Lucas tilts his head to the side in confusion, then, it clicked.
'This woman!'
Lucas instantly sprung up from his bed, then, in a blink he sped past Lily into the bathroom. He was going back to civilisation, he'll need to be at his best.
"Hey!" Lily called out.
----
The entire guild hall was booming with hunters and adventurers. The atmosphere was lively with people talking non-stop about the duel to come.
"I heard the Dark Hunters team had challenged the Golden Furnace team to a one on one duel."
"They are actually quite arrogant. Just because they took out a king tier demon, they are disregarding the strength of others."
"I heard their leader is a rank E hunter."
"What! A rank E! How dare they act so arrogantly! They must have met a very weak demon king, probably at the brink of death, and killed it on the spot."
"What pathetic hunters, thinking because they killed one, that no one could stop them!"
Lily and Lucas sat besides each other at the uppermost area of the arena. Lucas was busy cultivating his di while Lily was in a discussion with some lady.
A tall man with red hair wearing a luxurious red suit walked up to the other side of the arena.
He locked eyes with Lucas and the atmosphere suddenly tensed, the temperature dropping down as they commenced a dominance battle.
"The two opposing teams have arrived! Who do you think will will this duel today?!" A petite lady holding a microphone screamed to the audience while being filmed by her cameraman.
Lucas and the red haired man continued staring at each other, the atmosphere growing more tense by the minute.
"The duel will now commence, just who will they teams put forward to fight?"
"I'll handle this one." Lily got up from her seat, with a smirk on her face as her eyes locked on the red haired man.
A tall bulky fellow jumped into the arena stage. He was a bald man welding a pair of axes in both hands.
Lily jumped unto the stage right after him with her hands transformed into dark blue blades.
The entire crowd erupted with cheers as both contestants sized each other up, looking for a weak point in the other.
"So you're the one to fight me?" The bulky man scoffed then continued with his eyes fierce, "I Garrick, will chop you to bits!"
Lily simply smiled, her aura calm and collected as she got into a fighting stance.
"The duel begins!"
The arena screamed cheers as the duel officially begun. Lucas smiled as he watched the fighters.
