The battle between Seth and Raiden came to an end, and Raiden decided to forfeit, having achieved his goal of teaching Seth Raiden's Combat Style.
At that moment, both teacher and student shared a deep mutual respect. Seth had the strength to surpass Raiden, but he had willingly learned from him. Seth felt a genuine sense of accomplishment as he now possessed this new combat style, which he valued for its emphasis on close-quarters combat over the usual spell casting and long-range attacks.
As they strolled towards the cafeteria, their steps echoed in the spacious corridor, the scent of victory still fresh in the air. Seth's newfound excitement for the Raiden's Combat Style was displayed outward. He couldn't wait to practice and master it even further.
Unbeknownst to them, Taro had just arrived at the training area, but it seemed like he had just missed Seth and Raiden as they made their way towards the cafeteria.
