Just after the commencement of the tournament had been announced, the arena was already filled with people; visitors and indigenes. A large multitude could be seen walking to the arena, with participants and demi-gods representing each country in groups
"Orpheus," Rhea called him as they were walking to the arena
"Hmm?" Orpheus gave Aella to Lydia
"What if we end up facing each other at a point?" she asked
"We fight with our best. I'm not going to go easy on you" Orpheus smiled
'Why was I hoping for that?' Rhea's expression became a little downcast but she smiled to cover it "Neither will I"
"How has your training been on the elemental beast transformation?" Orpheus asked.
"I'm definitely better than you at that" Rhea smiled. At this point, they were already lagging behind their group as their conversation had gotten the better of them
"Hahaha. I learned it first. I'm obviously better than you," Orpheus laughed
