章節 87: Festive season- Part 3

"Are you ready, Ms. Whitlock?" the coach asked me and I nodded, "Good. One of the teachers swapped the list for the first round. You have a human girl it should be easy, go on. At the sound of third horn you start the match," he said as a horn was blown.

The teacher, the coach was talking about must have been Leo. I thanked Leo in my mind as I got outside to see many people seated in the arena like a place. It was noisier than I had expected and crowded too. Ahead of me, a girl stood holding a sword in her hand like me. I wondered if Ruka was here, watching us now.

"Ready?" asked a man who I assumed was a new teacher with a paper and a pen, both of us nodded simultaneously and heard the second horn blow, "Alright then, take your stance," he instructed us, making me grip my sword tightly.
