[Samael Ashwood's POV]
"Next match! Raven versus Eveline Clearwater!"
I looked toward Raven who was giving Eveline a mocking sneer, her confidence radiating as she stepped into the training area. Eveline, on the other hand, was calm, her demeanor a stark contrast to Raven's spirited energy. I leaned against the mana barrier, watching as they both prepared for the match.
"Get ready to eat my dust, Clearwater!" Raven called out, her voice dripping with playful taunts. "I hope you've been practicing your dodging skills!"
Eveline merely shrugged, a small smile playing on her lips. "Just don't underestimate me, Raven. I've had some practice myself." There was a glint of determination in her eyes, and I could tell she wasn't just going to be a passive participant.
The professor raised his hand, signaling the start of the match. "Begin!"
