Merida Challanges...

Orion observed the burnt sections of the stage and couldn't help but furrow his brows into a frown.

Merida turned and rose to her feet, her eyes filled with unbridled fury. Like Clan Mistress Elara, she too knew that this battle had been eagerly initiated by her sister. So, she forcibly restrained herself from lashing out at him and doing something she might regret, as he stood before her.

Meanwhile, as Orion faced the young woman on the other side of the stage, he let out a sigh, remembering that Princess Crystalia had introduced her as Merida Luminous, the eldest heir among the three Luminaris Clan Heiresses.

Seeing the same vengeful and furious gaze that he had witnessed in the eyes of the Gemheart Clan Mistress, and her right hand tightly clutching the sword strapped at the left side of her waist, he sensed trouble brewing.

As the healers arrived and began attending to Maya, Merida turned her head to the side to watch.
