Battle againts Manarion

In the end, Hans could only fight him in the arena since he seems so eager to fight him and it probably wouldn't do any harm to him. Hans and Manarion walk up the arena and stand facing each other, Eydris stand in the middle of them as the referee.

"Hans be careful when fighting him!"

"Young master take care."

Ryouma and Lu Bu shouted from the spectator seat, worry is written all over their face. They know that Manarion is an extremely strong person yet they can't stop this match right now as Hans had agreed to fight him.

"Let's start, the two card master will fight each other here in the arena. The rule of the battle is the participant may only use Commander Tier monster in this fight and the fight will end when all of the other card master's monster is defeated." Eydris speak out loudly like a proper referee even though there is no other spectator beside Ryouma and Lu Bu. "You can't resummon a monster after summoning them to the arena, the monster had been counted to be eliminated."

'Huh?' Hans suddenly feels some people are watching him right now, he turned his back to see some elf that had taken their seat on the spectator seat behind him.

"Look someone is fighting Manarion the captain of Elf's Blade."

"Cool, It's rare to see people fight here beside when there is a tournament."

"Who's that he facing?"

"It seems to be one of the humans that comes to our place a week ago."

"Are they strong?"

"Don't ask me and let's just see it for ourselves."

Hans could hear those elf having discussion behind him, they obviously curious about him and he also hears some elf girl talking about Manarion.

"That's Manarion, he is so handsome."

"That's true even if he was cursed with those terrifying aura, I would be glad to be his wife."

"Right...Right."

'Damn, he is so popular among the elf and why many of this elf started to come here!' More elf started to join in and become a spectator for their match.

"Don't worry about them and focus on our match." Saying that he summoned his monster out, A black panther come out and let out a roar.

Roar!

The panther should be 2 meters in height with yellow eyes and dark aura surrounding its body, it's obviously strong and when he checks its stat he was speechless.

[Monster Description]: A pure-blooded Shadow Panther with high affinity with shadow and darkness, they live in the darkest place on a forest stalking their prey before sweeping them with their powerful claw when their prey lowered their guard down.

'Well shit, this guy is basically trying to make fun of me. This is obviously a strong monster that had been trained a lot by him.' Hans look at him, he wants to see if he have some hidden motive but he only sees his clear eyes with no darkness hidden on it.

"Well, whatever let's do this ." Hans summoned Diablo and Solaire out to fight the Panther.

"Since the two participants had let out their monster, let's begin this fight. 1,2...Fight!" Eydris give the signal to begin the battle and their monster rushed toward each other.

Their monster collided with each other but it obvious to see that Hans' two monsters are sent flying by the panther, their difference in strength is shown here.

Manarion is not let the opportunity to waste and give order to his monster, "[Shadow Leap] and continue with [Crushing Bite]."

The panther turns into a shadow and with a fast speed reach Diablo is just a breath of time, opening its mouth the big cat bite down on one of Diablo's leg.

"Roar!"

Diablo cry out in pain and Hans is also affected by Diablo's pain as Diabo is his soul card their soul is connected to each other even stronger than his other monster.

"[Blade of The Sun]!" Hans ordered Solaire a bead of sweat is rolling down on his face.

"I will not gonna let you, [Shadow Prison]." Manarion not giving him a chance to counter-attack, the panther let go of its bite and tap down the ground and a shadow shoots out toward Solaire, it entered Solaire's shadow and suddenly a dark cage shoot out bellow him.

"[Shadow Rage]!" Hans still not recovered from the attack before his enemy cast a rage skill to his Panther.

"[Fleeting Wind]!" Hans quickly cast his skill to boost his monster's speed to avoid the attack, wind elemental boosted Diablo's speed greatly but just as he was happy thinking that he had avoided getting his monster critically wounded a shadow materialized behind Solaire with the shadow prison gone.

'No, Solaire won't be able to take this blow.' Hans hurriedly returns Solaire back into a card making him unable to use it anymore as the rule stated that any monster that had been summoned on the arena once can't be summoned again, The panther's claw slashed down the floor and make a big crater on it.

'Luckily, I able to return Solaire back into a card before it landed on his body.' In reality, when the shadow prison cast around Solaire he was unable to return him back into a card only when it's gone that he can do it.

Manarion is giving him a chance to return his monster back that's why he was able to do so and he was grateful about it but he still in a fight with him so he won't think about expressing his thanks, first of all, he needs to kick his ass before thanking him.
