The day of the tournament shook the entire country of Avalor. The streets of the Capital were full of tourists that came to watch the tournament and the countless amazing participants. It was said that at least one hundred would go for the first stage, and only twenty-five would pass.The second stage will be for the veterans and the top fifty champions from the last tournament and the third stage will be for the top ten only. Those fights were only to determine the ranking between them and the places for the final stage.Many stalls and points of magical transportation were established around the main malls. Some of the participants, and it must be said that the least of them were from foreign countries and different races than dragons."We are going to be late," Emma was nervous pacing around the study of Liam, he has been working leisurely on some papers before heading to the tournament. "Liam, please, I need to go.""We will go on time," he said while

The three of them went inside the barracks and what they saw left them with round big eyes. Inside the underground hall were an incredible amount of fighters ready to step into the first ranks of the tournament. Some looked so fiery in their fighting suits with their weapons at their sides. Some others looked mysterious as they were covering their faces with masks of different colors and types. However, some others were wearing the uniforms of their clans and units, the clan crests were visibly embroidered. They looked quite imposing. It would be a lie to say that Emma was not concerned."Don't worry, E… Mina," Devon could feel the flinch on Emma's body. She had it too the first time she participated but her dear older brother helped her calm down."Mm," Emma nodded but she was still nervous. It will be her first time to prove her abilities against formidable fighters, even more, they all came with a purpose higher than proving themselves, they were carrying the

"Mina, he is…"Emma was stunned for sure, she never thought to see her husband battle so soon in the tournament. He may have done that because he was the main host of the event, but somehow she had a bit of suspicious.How on earth did he end fighting Ilian?"He is a jealous freak," she murmured when somehow the eyes of the Duke suddenly landed on her making a thousand spectators cheer when they saw him smiling."Did you see?""The Duke smiled, he… he smiled… towards here!""To whom? He was looking this side.""Maybe towards us!""Keep dreaming…""But, isn't this side the VIP room of Miss Gia?""That… that is true….""Oh my! He was smiling at her."The bunch of silly girls from behind were keeping screaming and spreading rumors, that will easily reach the top floors of the VIP rooms. A beautiful woman in red fighting clothes will hear them and her cheeks will

The battle of the two mighty dragons ended fast as Liam quickened his speed and attacks with his sword. It was true that he had better ability controlling the dragon fire and the ancient magic than many, he was even considered a genius. It was also true that it was difficult to see him fight in close combat using some weapon so many inclined to think that he was not confident in his abilities, but what they didn't know was that he had lived long enough and had battled so many wars to know that once a sword was taken out, the worst consequences can only come out from his hands. Even more, his teacher was the great and wise Master Jin, the old dragon seemed to be an easy-going type of elder but he was a merciless teacher too. Liam had experienced firsthand the cruelest type of learning. That old man never stopped himself from letting him experience the pain and hardships of a soldier in battle that only had his sword as a supporting hand. Master Jin was a teacher, but

"Silver fairy?" Emma giggled at the strange nickname, she didn't think she looked like a fairy. They were people with delicate faces, enticing to the humans but compared to the luriems, the fairies didn't like to lie or set traps. They were good fighters in physical combat and great users of nature magic."I am sorry, Miss Mina, it is just that…" the young lad was now red to the ears from the ridiculous name he just called her. In front of his goddess, he just made a fool of himself. "The… the others were calling you that way, that's why I called you that, please don't be mad at me.""No, it's just strange," Emma was now noticing the stares around her, they were from the male fighters that were unconsciously driven to her, but every time she turned around to see them, they hid their faces or look another place. Even some fighters in the arenas were trying to vie for her attention and were battling fiercer. Emma was astonished, she didn't know she had that
