Elena ignored the Prince. "Ren, if it's gold you want, you can always marry me, and you will have all the gold of the eleven realms within the palm of your hands."
Ren doubted that.
"Marry her?" Isolde raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised.
Ren quickly deflected the topic, saying, "Let's not talk about that." He turned his attention to Scar, preparing for their one-on-one fight.
On the other side, Invayne whispered to Scar, "We'll support you if needed."
"Don't interfere, or those two NPCs will spring into action," Scar replied. "Focus on powering up those items first, and victory will be ours in the end."
Scar then approached Ren, leaving a distance of about twenty meters between them. Once he initiated the attack, the battle began.
As the battle commenced, Scar began with a series of dark spells, testing the waters against Ren's defense.
