Art wakes up and heads to the bathroom
After finishing he went downstairs to eat breakfast with his family, after they all ate Art and Sigurd leave the and head to the tournament Arena which is located in the center of the domina kingdom, after a few minutes of jogging they reach the Arena
They both enter the Arena and sigurd tells Art to sit on the bench and wait for him,
Sigurd heads to the king who is with his daughter, the name of the king is Varen Darksteel, his daughters names is Lucia Darksteel, king Varen looks at sigurd while smiling and saying
"Sigurd how are you doing?"
Sigurd looks at Varen and says
"Doing good king, what about you and the kid?"
"We're doing great, is that your son?"
"Yeah"
Sigurd looks at Lucia then looks at Varen, and both of them smile, Sigurd looks back at Art and tells him to come over,
Art spacing out reacts a little late but quickly rushes over to his dad, Sigurd tells Art to introduce himself, Art a little uncomfortable but starts introducing himself
"Good afternoon your majesty, i am Artorias Woolfblood, i am honored to meet you"
Sigurd looks at Art and nods while smiling,
Varen looks at his daughter while telling her to introduce herself with his eyes
"Hello there, i am Lucia Darksteel, It's a pleasure to meet you "
Lucia looks at Art and it seems he's not paying attention, suddenly Sigurd yells at the top of his lungs telling all the kids who will be participating in the tournament, they all line up, Art is also lined up with them, Sigurd start's to explain the rules to everyone
"The rules are simple, you're not allowed to use magic, any weapon that isn't given from us is not allowed, anyone who breaks these rules will not be allowed to participate in any tournament's for as long as i see fit, understood?"
All the kids say, yes sir, the tournament begins, they will have to go through 10 rounds, they all seem to be easy for Art
And it's not too long before Art reaches the final round, and it seems to be Art against a noble named "Alaric Zärvos",
Both him and Art walk into the arena, Alaric looks at Art and says
"Hey don't go crying to your dad once am done wiping the floor with you"
Art looks at Alaric and doesn't say anything, which made Alaric angry,
Both of them take positions and the battle begins, Alaric runs towards Art and strike's his sword at Art's, Art block's it and backs off but Alaric chase's after him and does a downward slash, Art block's it and pushes him back and Art connects with a horizontal slash from the right, which knocks Alaric and they keep trading blows, Sigurd notices Lucia getting excited, and says to her.
"You really like dual's don't you?"
Lucia answer's back saying.
"No, but Artorais's movement reminds me of a board game I love"
Sigurd, surprised by her respond,
Looks back to see how Art is doing,
Alaric keeps slashing but Art keeps dodging all of his attacks, then Art attacks
Him knocking Alaric back while also backing of himself, Alaric becomes furious and yell's at
Art saying he's a coward, Art still not phased by his words, backhands his sword and stab's it to the ground and start's spinning in a circle with it creating a dust cloud around him engulfing him completely, Sigurd and everyone else surprised by Art, Suddenly a sword comes flying from the top of the dust cloud and it's heading towards Alaric, takes a blocking stance but suddenly Art comes running from the left side and gets behind Alaric, then proceeds to kick Alaric and catch's his sword but Alaric tries to retaliate, only for Art to point his sword towards Alaric's face, Alaric looks down in embarrassment, Art walks towards Alaric
And nervously Ask's him if he's okay,
Sigurd gets up and is about to announce the winner, only for Alaric to throw a fireball at Art's face causing Art to fall down on his back, Everyone in the Colosseum is left speechless,
Sigurd Rushes in while yelling "Art", he gets to him and uses water magic to stop the fire,
He then picks up Art only to see him uninjured,
Sigurd let's out a sigh of relief and turns to Alaric and says.
"Alaric Zärvos, you Are forbidden from competing in any tournament for as long as i see fit"
Alaric's father rushes in and says that he can't forbid him from competing over a small mistake, Sigurd looks at him and says
"My son may not be injured, but what if this was another child then what"
Alaric's father tries to argue further, and Sigurd
Argues back, Art gets up and is annoyed by the by them and covers his ears then proceeds to leave the Arena and heads to a park and sits under a tree.
Sigurd tells Alaric's father to leave at once and looks back at Art only to see he's gone, Lucia tells Sigurd that Art left the Arena, Sigurd thanked her and left to look for Art, after a while he finally found him in a park sitting under a tree, he goes to him and asks him why did he leave, Art says.
"You kept yelling, and i hate yelling"
Sigurd looks at Art and says he's sorry,
Art still angry, Sigurd says.
"If come back him with, I'll get you some Ice cream"
Art looks at him and says "okay", gets up and both of the stop by an ice cream stand, and then they headed back home.
