In the serene venue, an old wooden house stood under the bright noon sun. The two duelists were focussed intensely on their contest, conveying an unspoken manifestation of supreme martial spirit.
As the duel began,
Cervini didn't rush to attack Lanci. Instead, she maintained her distance, cautiously empowering herself with enhancement and immunity spell cards.
Her body was light and nimble, ready to dodge at any time. Her careful steps reflected in her anxious gaze.
Even at this moment, she was wary of Lanci's potential long-range spell use.
Perceiving hostility, reaching a state of preemptive response, is a milestone for all martial artists.
Cervini could sense Lanci's intentions of attack even before her eyes could detect it.
She knew that Lanci, her opponent, was a gifted mage, so she had to be careful of possible trap spell cards.
However,
Lanci's eyes were calm as a millpond, as if devoid of any hostility.
