After the electrifying match between Aurelia and Gwen, it was time for the next explosive duel—one that had already drawn immense attention.
The dueling grounds of Zenith Academy Training Grounds buzzed with excitement as students gathered, eagerly awaiting the next highly anticipated duel.
On the glowing, rune-inscribed platform stood a duel that felt more like a prophecy waiting to unfold.
Lilith Noctis Bloodrose, Vampire Princess of 1st Year Class 1-A.
vs
Cordelia Harrington, proud noble and top mage of 2nd Year Class 2-A.
An Advance (Low)-Rank versus an Expert (Mid)-Rank.
The difference should've been insurmountable.
But the tension in the air said otherwise.
Lilith stepped onto the platform first. Raven-black hair cascaded down her back like a midnight waterfall, her pale, flawless skin almost glowing under the arena lights.
Her eyes—deep, crimson orbs—shimmered with detached amusement, like a predator watching her prey squirm.
