The shrine within the mountain of Japan was beautiful, giving Lady goosebumbs but, Aurelius had found another reason to enjoy the mountain. A man in red, named Akimoto as the other men had stated, began to show off his own skills with swordsmanship. Aurelius could barely keep up with the man, his abilities quick, ending the fight in one blow..or so it seemed. He had never seen anyone fight in this manner before. Most sword users of his kingdom used pure strength or a mix of magic to show off their skills but this man was faster than any he had known. Slowly his hand began to reach for the sword at his side, his body shaking in pure anticipation and excitement. 

[color=f26522]"Aurelius, I don't know about this."[/color]

[color=fff200]"Don't worry. I'll be fine."[/color] Aurelius responded in a calm tone, he knew Lady was worried of him getting hurt and even he knew that this man was beyond him in skill. Even so, he still pulled his blade from his sheath as dramatically as possible. The sun gleamed from from the blade's damaged form, the wraps hanging limply from the handle. He walked up to Akimoto, giving them only ten feet apart. He assumed his standard posture for sword play to show that he indeed wanted a duel. Calming himself, he let his voice carry the same strength as the metal that created his sword. "Excuse me, sir. I would like a duel. Your abilities are impressive. Would you honor me?"
