I went down the stairs that led to an open hallway, along with me many other people were also gathered there. Some were buying snacks and drinks from the nearby stalls, some had come here just for a change of mood or for a walk. As for me, well, I had come here to meet with Anya before the final match. I want to make sure that she won't have a doubt about anything and understood my plan well. I can't leave any blind spots after all. Making my way through the crowd I walked forward and soon I saw her…

The duel with Bovix ended with Anya's victory. She flicked her sword in the air, removing Bovix's blood that painted her sword in a shade of red; afterward, she put it back in its sheath. Before moving she looked upward where the audience was sitting, instead of looking here and there she directed her gaze at a certain place. She knew exactly where she had to look to find that person, soon her eyes caught the sight of him. It was Zero she was looking for, apparently, he was also watching her and this…

After parting ways with Anya I went toward the entrance gate meant for the people who were going to watch this tournament, the audience. There was a huge crowd of people, all of them filled with excitement and pushing each other in order to get inside first. Few guards were there, trying to control the people and making them enter in a line but mere four or five guards weren't enough to stop a crowd this big. I was not an exception so I also was also supposed to wait here, which was what I had done if I…

The day of the battle tournament was today. I and Anya left for the Bull's stage coliseum early in the morning; after all, it took a fair amount of time to reach there. And it did take a fair amount of time. When we reached the Coliseum I saw that the view now was nothing like what I saw when I came here before. The roads were filled with people, both participants of this tournament and civilians who came as the audience were scattered all over the place. At a glance I could tell that the people who…

Only one day was remaining before the battle tournament. My meeting with Walric was now done and I had planted the important seeds. This leaves only one thing and that is participating in the battle tournament itself. Oh wait, that's wrong, Anya is the one participating in the tournament since I have other things to do. I'm sure she's doing what I told her and talking with Ainge about that. "You are looking all normal now?" asked Ron, who was walking beside me. I and Ron had come to drop Walric and his…

So with a fake smile on my face, I welcomed him. At least that's what I wanted to do but I soon stopped myself after reading the atmosphere that was not pleasant at all, not even for acting happy. On that guy's left was a fatty old man who was his father probably. He has a big beard and mustache while he was dressed in formal white clothing. He also held a golden cane in his right arm which he used as a support to walk. 'Though I'm sure he didn't need that to walk and it's just for show off.' On the…

A sense of fear developed inside me as I took steps toward Ainge and Ron's room. Normally she was the type you can call a kind and caring mom but when she's angry about something then she's scarier than a demon. I walked alone in the hallway as the sounds of my footsteps echoed through the area. A while later I reached my destination. I prepared myself for an hour-long lecture as I stood in front of the room's door. But then when I was about to knock on the door and call for her I heard something. I…

I have not visited this area of the city much and it's quite different. The main infrastructure is the same but the way houses and shops are built alongside the road is not like before. The houses were built in the blocks of six houses, and then there was a road and then again a block of six houses. Completely different from the area near the south gate where the houses were built in a straight row. Right now I was in the center part of this city, headed toward a certain place. I quickly noticed the…

Anya decided to tell me the reason behind her irrational behavior but since we were in the coliseum for my graduation exam, she said we will talk on our way home. I didn't have any reason to refuse so I said "I'm fine with it," and we left the coliseum. It was noon and the sun was right above our head, the streets were crowded with both adventurers and citizens. I glanced at Anya as we walked through the market. She wasn't in her usual cheerful and bright mood right now. She was giving a kind of dark…

"Are you ready?" asked Anya as we both held onto our swords and stood in position. The atmosphere was filled with tension as a cold breeze embraced us gently, Anya looked right into my eyes as if asking "You're prepared right?" to which I looked back in her eyes with confidence and nodded. Today Anya was taking my graduation exam meaning after this there won't be anything left for her to teach me, well, that was not the important part though. For me what comes afterward was important. Thus I need to win…
