Walking in the private room, Luna turned on the screen and saw Keiran's name announced by the commentators.
She looked at his opponent who was a tall buff guy, with no apparent emotions.
Ignoring his opponent, Luna looked at the screen with lovestruck eyes as Keiran made his way on the stage.
'Aaah~~ How handsome!!'

Back on the stage Keiran was making his way towards the middle, in between his steps halted for a second before resuming.
His lips twitched before forming a grin and his white eyes gained a hollow look.
Looking at the tall muscular man standing in front of him, Keiran waited for the match to start.
"Let's begin the next match. On the one side is the all time champion of the Private underground matches, Arnold Savvy!!!"
Very few people knew about these private matches that were held with rules. Credit Points are used as the prize for the champion.
People participate in these matches for the credits. Those who want to get easy money participate in this competition.
Unlike the Arena where bets are generally not allowed this ring is different. The nobles bet on their fighters with credits and other assets. This match is held every year and only a few people participate in this match.
Arnold savvy has been a champion for 5 years constantly giving him the title of all time champion.
The bald head Arnold stood at the height of six feet and three inches. He looked at Keiran with an arrogant look in his eyes.
" On the other side we have our Prince Kerian who along with his twin sister Luna defeated a level two beast when he was merely 11 years old."
The people in the crowd were astonished, although they had heard of such rumors they chose to think that they were exaggerated but now hearing the confirmation from the commentator they were left in awe.
Arnold also looked at the boy with a wide eye but soon he recomposed himself thinking.
'I can slay Level 2 beasts with bare hands now. You may be a Prince but in this Arena everyone is equal. There is only life and death.'
A grin appeared on his ugly face as he got even more sure of his victory.
Keiran was disgusted seeing the grin on his ugly face along with the aura he was releasing.
Thankfully the commentator did not take any longer and indicated the start of the match as a huge animated 'Fight' appeared on the screen.
Turning his attention to the bald man Keiran saw that he was already charging at him with the same grin plastered on his face.
Arnold, seeing Keiran unmoving from his place, thought that he was so scared that he could not move. Taking the stance he launched an attack towards his face.
His fist was laced with a layer of metal. The metal reached till the back of his arm.
'This guy has too much arrogance for this much level of power.' Kerian scoffed in his mind adding 'even Aiden can kill him without using his powers but this metal ability seems weird.'
Under Arnold's Astonished eyes Keiran sidestepped and dodged the attack coming at him. With his combat experience it did not take long before he came out of his shock and changed his attack.
The ether around his hand surged and the metal that covered on his fist like a sheet deformed and extended in a spike shape aiming at Kerian's neck.
Keiran was also able to notice the change in time, he squatted and rolled on the ground to create a distance between them.
He touched the slight scratch that appeared on his neck.
…
Inside the resting room Luna crushed the bag of chips in her hands looking at the screen with cold hollow eyes.
'Make him suffer brother.'
She just wanted to rush there and kill the man herself but she was barely holding herself with all of her will power.
…
Keiran chuckled hearing the words in his mind confusing his opponent.
'It looks like I underestimated someone for the first time.'
Keiran's aura turned serious and he disappeared from the place he was standing on.
Arnold's instincts went crazy, they screamed at him to run. Before he could manage to understand what was happening he heard a voice from behind sending a chill down his spine.
"Sorry but You have to suffer for my sister."
Instinctively he turned to look in the direction of the voice and he saw a kick coming in the direction of his stomach.
The attack was already a few inches away from him so he could not dodge in time, let alone guard against it.
Arnold's huge muscular body was sent rolling on the stage as Kerian walked towards him.
Arnold stood up and moved his ether through the entire body covering himself in an armor made from his ability.
Arnold's eyes had a solemn look in them.
'It seems I cannot underestimate this prince.'
Arnold took a stance that looked similar to a bull. Keiran immediately saw through the next move as luckily he had just fought a bull before coming here.
With a surge in his ether Arnold rushed towards Keiran at a tremendous speed.
Not taking any chances Keiran enabled his body strengthening skill and covered his body with ether.
Unsheathing his sword Keiran charged straight ahead head on. Thinking of His actions as foolish Arnold activated his ability and several spikes launched towards the prince revealing a gap in the armor.
'So I was right, He cannot create them infinitely. Now is the time to deliver the promised pain.'
Seeing the parts of his body being revealed Keiran focused his eyes on them and started dodging the spikes.
To his surprise the spike started turning and coming back in his direction, he did not have to turn to see this because Luna was actively sharing her senses with him.
Arnold and Keiran drew closer to each other, Kerian jumped up making Arnold smirk even more.
'Now you have nowhere to go!!' He exclaimed in his mind and followed Keiran's movements with his eyes.
However something happened that shocked him to the core. Keiran's figure shifted in the middle of the air and spinned.
All he felt was a gush of warmth and a pair of Glowing white eyes fixed at him, Then it hit him.
'How did his speed suddenly decrease when he was so fast in the start?'
Keiran vanished from his view and he saw several metal spikes rushing at him.
'do what if you are fast, you think you can kill me with my attack. How laughable!!!'
While he manipulated the spikes to merge with his armor the gap appeared once again and that was all the time Keiran needed.
With his increased speed, he stabbed at the spot the gap appeared.
"Aahhh!!"
Arnold screamed Kneeling on the ground.
'He probably never faced defeat with that weird ability causing him to have low pain tolerance.'
Keiran thought using this opportunity to end the bald man's life by decapitating him.
*GUSHH* *SPLASHH*
His head rolled on the ground and the blood came out of his neck spreading all over the arena. Keiran jumped away to not let any blood fall on him.
…
Sitting on his seat Arion looked at the stage with a puzzled look in his eyes.
'How did he turn mid-air? Is he already at the peak of General Rank where you get the ability to float or does he have an ability that allows him to do that?'
The puzzled look in his eyes was replaced by a calculative glint.
'Whatever ability you might have hidden will reveal itself with time. It can never match my ability anyway.'
