The tournament was progressing smoothly.
Out of the ten fights that I had gotten, I had won all of them.
Most of those hadn't been as easy as against Xander since they were getting more and more powerful as I moved up in their ranking. However, I still managed to win most of the time, and I had no doubt that I would continue to win.
I was actually extremely surprised by my strength. My actual output of power was much less than before. However, because I was able to use aether I was able to move and dodge attacks from my opponent before they were even launched. It was a big advantage especially for fighters such as myself and the tribe members.
Nevertheless, I wanted things to go faster. I thought that things were going too slowly. After all, I had received some intel from Lurok about this place. However, I did not know if Zero had a base here or anything of that type.
In the following chapters, the main focus will be the Caedrel's past in the war. There might be flashbacks and I will warn you when that is the case either by leaving a note or using italics.
Anyway, I hope you like this "break" from action as we get to learn more about this mysterious main character of ours.
