"Oi, just retract yourself from this stupid fight. I don't want people to think that I'm bullying you," Ygriss warned, releasing a faint killing intent.
Unfazed by Ygriss's intimidation tactics, Klaus maintained his composure and flashed a confident smile. "I'll be the one doing the bullying," he declared boldly.
"We'll see about that," Ygriss replied, stepping fifteen paces back from Klaus and awaiting the patriarch's signal to commence the fight.
"This kid is too cocky; he needs a good beating," Ygriss muttered through gritted teeth.
Rick returned to the stage, retrieving Ygriss's sword and replacing it with a training sword for the duel. While official duels typically allowed the use of real swords, the patriarch opted for training swords to prevent serious injuries in this particular match.
