I felt my senses becoming sharper and my breathing became steady just as the bell rang, announcing the commencement of the duel.

She picked up after the first ring. “Kayden,” her voice was calm, but there was an edge to it, a tension I could feel even through the phone. She was always like that, calm, but never passive.

There's a ring specially prepared for duels like this. Brad had taken her to get a view of what it looked like. It looked like a place where someone could die and no one would be able to save the person.

“My rage is fire. But their lives are my flames.” I reached across the twins to Tristan. “Let’s walk into hell… together.” The cursed wolves surged, and Dante raised his dagger—the throat rune blazing. I raised my hand, twisting time’s heartbeat. Pearl and Luis bounded forward—twins and parents unified. Together, we stepped into their shadow as— The Final Duel begins.

"It is settled then," Sergeant Cole’s declaration sliced through the charged silence. "We duel at noon." His words hung in the air like a gauntlet thrown, and the gravity of the impending duel settled upon us all. Noon would be the hour of reckoning, a trial by combat to test my mettle and prove the legends right or wrong. As I nodded in acknowledgment, a storm of emotions raged within me. This duel was not merely a physical confrontation; it was a clash of belief and doubt, a challenge to the very core of my identity as the Lycan Lord of Chaos.

Three days. The number hung over the place like a heavy, dark cloud. The unnatural red tint of the blood moon had faded, but the psychological chill Malphas left behind remained. In seventy-two hours, the duel would begin. If Duncan won, the South would find peace. If he lost, Amora and her children would become the property of a monster.

Felix extended his right hand and said slowly, "Let's cut the bull crap and begin the duel. We have been waiting for this day to come for a long time now." "Fine. Your time is up, Felix!"
