[@PaulHaynek] [@Rune_Alchemist] [h3][center][color=fff200]--Lisia--[/color][/center][/h3] Lisia did well to prep for the upcoming matches after parting ways with Kazudain, whom she must admit had an impressive mastery of lightning magic. Truthfully she wanted to learn a little more about his techniques, but the official had called him away on some sort of business. Regardless, Lisia spent the rest of the day preparing strategies for the upcoming matches. [hr] The next day, the princess found herself stating in a new arena, filled to the brim with on-lookers, and standing opposite her was Seleth Thenri. She was an apparent problem child among the academy students. Lisia really only had rumors and gossip to go off of, but apparently people were tired of her attitude. She wasn't familiar with the dark elf's magics, but she'll learn them as the match goes on. One of the most important parts of battle is the skill to adapt to any situation. The princess couldn't take this opponent likely, if she made it this far she must be a fighter of considerate skill. Lisia wasn't much at all bothered by the snarky comment made by her opponent, it was something she was actually used to. Being the crown princess of the kingdom and a student of renown comes with ire. [color=fff200]"Likewise, I'm impressed that a petite fighter like yourself manage to make it this far as well. I do hope your lance is sharper than your tongue!"[/color] Retorted Lisia. Lisia looked as Seleth began to make copies of herself around the field, trying to confuse her as to which was the real one. The princess guessed that Seleth wanted the princess to make the first move, but how to proceed? Gathering up orbs of light, Lisia decided to cast them at each of the clones, to see which would be the real one and hopefully dispel the rest. She hoped she could cast barrier in time in case her plans go awry. [hr] [h3][center][color=9e005d]--Hisana--[/color][/center][/h3] Hisana, usually never wincing at any situation, couldn't helped but be completely perplexed by Keith's tatse in fashion. [color=9e005d]Why are...you wearing that silly outfit? If people see you in that, they might start to get the wrong idea."[/color]💧 Said the dame with a blank expression. She then listened heard him say to keep an eye out for Juan's pursuers, though she ignored the part about checking his zipper. However, there was a certain tension in the air. It was show thick Hisana could feel it caressing her innards. It wasn't from the operation, it was from the anticipation. Anticipation that a certain someone who's gotten themselves involved in all this would also find his way here today. Hisana had been mostly bored since she arrived here in this land, even the fight she had against the academy student didn't sate her in the end. However, if Enishi was to show to show himself here, it'd make it all the worthwhile. [hr] [h3][center][color=00aeef]--Enishi--[/color][/center][/h3] [@Frozen0Titan] [@Polaris North] [@CitrusArms] Enishi stood with Tibrus and Faye at the rendezvous point in the city square. Juan apparently was in a carriage heading out to have lunch, and they had a choice of either finding Juan's pursuers or simply forcing them to come out. Enishi clenched his fists, doing his best to lower his mana levels so as not to lose the element of surprise. [color=00aeef]"No point in wasting time looking for these thugs. As Faye-san says, they'll come straight to us if we pounce on that noble."[/color] Being honest with himself, Enishi's had a staunch feeling at his core. He could place his finger on it but something was...off. He wondered if the old sage's words rang true about his target. Whether they were or not, they were about to find out. [color=00aeef]"What say you, Tibrus? Faye-san and I are for going after Juan directly."[/color]
