The Coliseum

Jake thought that Lucia would have stayed in the Ludus under Gerulf's protection, but it was not so. The Princess's progress had been so terrifying that he was now unable to determine her true power. The potential of a Myrmidian pureblood was simply terrifying.

From her small size and frail, anemic appearance, the young woman was now about his height and seemed physically as strong as a Valkyrie. Her long golden hair fell down to her lower back and her golden irises radiated an incredible aura of valour and determination. Compared to Khazus and Priscus, one may have thought that they were not even of the same species.

Seeing Lucia's dramatic transformation, her half-brother Cassius had been flabbergasted but also overjoyed. He could feel how different she was from her former self, and even Gerulf was unable to estimate her true level. Well, the Kinthar had never been very sensitive anyway.
