Chapter 16 - The duel (part 1)

Since Zomei asked Horeo in person to take care of Miriette, the gold-haired prince and his two attendants were the only people who were present when the black-haired attendant accepted Grazio Mera Victureo's challenge but didn't follow the two to watch the duel.

...the prince wasn't very happy about it but since Zoemi had said that he trusts him, the first prince had no intention of failing that trust...

"I will interfere the moment that I determine that one of you will not be able to deflect or defend against the strike that would cause anything more serious than a light bruise or a scratch. The winner will be determined either if one of you admits defeat or I will be forced to interfere. Is that clear?"

The elderly light magician standing between the two boys each holding a wooden sword said looking between the two contestants.

"I trust teacher's Shuze judgment."

The black-haired boy nodded his head lightly.

"I agree."
