Fiyori was trying his best to block and counter as the Golden Prince struck at him, only to get faster and faster making it harder and harder for the Iglasian Prince. Though he held his own and kept his slowing weakness from showing, he was starting to realize that he underestimated Jasper. Fiyori changed tactics and began moving his feet faster to give his arms a break and possibly hide his slowing arms. With his body moving around so much it was easier to block for the moment, if a blow was coming and the blade was already in place, then moving his body to the correct side would successfully block the attack, but how long can such a large man keep up the movement.

The Golden Prince was taking large strides and fast strikes to keep the challenging opponent on the move and set him straight, not to underestimate anyone. The golden blade moved through the air like it was part of it, the momentum of his fast body keeping it in motion allowing him to strike quick and true. He noticed that Fiyori had changed tactic and began to move his body around his blade rather than his blade around his body. This however countered Jasper as he moved his body a lot to build his swords momentum, so he couldn't judge where his opponent was gonna stand next.

With this new tactic in play the Iglasian Prince was starting to turn the table and noticed as Jasper started to slow down and step carefully. He began to think that Jasper had burnt out his energy to quickly and now had the upper hand, with his arms having a slight rest he switched back to where he began before and started to swing his arms more than moving his feet.

Jasper stepped back for the first time and watched where he was blocking, this switching stances and tactics was not something he was used to at all. He adjusted the best he could and let Fiyori take a couple steps forward so his confidence would boost back up, and put his attacks a bit less planned and more cocky. With the blonde boy having a slight rest from attacking it was now time to reveal his secret weapon. Jasper glimpsed at the judge and then at Lumina, taking his eyes off his opponent for two strikes that were well blocked. He turned back towards Fiyori and swung up to block the next attack and force his opponents blade upwards giving him enough time to spin and take a step backwards while tossing his sword into his left hand and raised it at point towards the opposing Prince. 

Fiyori glanced at the judge who gave no comment and let it proceed, no rule was broken but the duelist, Jasper, knew the consequences for not having access to his short blade. He also noticed that the arm was bleeding at the shoulder, and it was a fresh wound, but it was there before the match. "That arm is wounded, are you sure you want to keep going?" he asked thinking that his other arm was tiring out.

"Don't hold back on me now Fiyori, I may be injured but I had the high ground when we started, now the tables are turned, show me your training." He smirked and waited until the boy attacked. With a quick flick of his wrist the attack was automatically turned into a block and the next couple strikes landed as so. But now using his left arm, his blade was hitting harder. The speed matched as his own from before, he waited for the right moment before going all out and boosting his speed beyond what Fiyori could block, but to keep the boy from being harmed Jasper focused on attacking the now limp blade in his hands. He finished the duel by striking the blade onto then switching hands once again only to put the tip of the golden sword near his throat. "I reckon you are finished?" 

Fiyori stepped back and let the judge proclaim the winner before glaring the blonde prince, "You've changed, you're different on the court compared to before, but you're still just as dangerous if not even more so." He called Vince over and the two left the room. Jasper sheathed his rapier and caught his breath before looking at the two Princesses, "Well, I could use a patch up right about now."

A couple hours later after being patched up, Jasper began to plan the rest of the day since the hours were going by before they had planned to leave for EverGlenn. He dressed himself in a formal outfit that consisted of the usual Golden Family colors and patterns while speaking with his sister, "I plan on taking Lumina for an evening dinner outside the palace, we haven't seen each other in some time and I wish to know a little more about her. While I'm gone please don't get yourself into trouble and don't fool around places you shouldn't be. I will be back tonight." He mounted his rapier back onto his belt, but this time with a more decorated sheathe. Used only as formal wear and was typically worn on most occasions.

That night Lumina had accepted his invitation and they both left the walls of the palace with no guards. They ate at a small restaurant and spoke with a joyful tone. He wanted to know a bit more about her, how she has been the past couple years, what she likes to do, what her thoughts on Royalty and her future rule in this Kingdom, possibly in EverGlenn, if something were to happen. After dinner and their little date was over, he walked her back to her room and kissed her hand before bidding farewell and returning to his shared bedroom. "How was your night?" He asked noticing as Jemma was brushing her slightly messy hair, knowing she must have been doing something active, "Get into anymore trouble I have to deal with?"
