So, they fought.
Really, it was a greeting. They already had Atlas as a point of connection, so they knew they weren't enemies. However, as geniuses of the same caliber, they had to see each other's strengths.
Their exchange lasted for no more than ten blows before it ended. And, by that point, the two were already friends.
"You're pretty good!" Artemia commented with a grin.
"You're not so bad yourself," Horus responded in kind.
"If you both are done playing around, can we start moving to the trial?" Atlas chimed in with another sigh.
"Eh? We're going together?" Horus said in surprise.
Atlas shrugged. He also didn't think he'd ever be the one offering others to team up, but he was interested in this combination. The three of them could achieve great things together, and he wanted to see it.
"Why not? Moving in a group is more fun, isn't it?"
