300 Please Just Duel

"Until the Head Master arrives, the duel is suspended!!"

"Are you kidding me?" Kayden's frustration echoed through the arena, met with a collective murmur from the surrounding audience.

"No!" Aadya's firm response reverberated, her gaze shifting between Kayden and Asher Eli.

"Do you hurt anywhere?" Aadya inquired, her stern expression briefly revealing a hint of concern. Whispers spread among the onlookers, capturing the underlying tension in the atmosphere.

"Hmm..." Eli raised his eyebrows, noting the subtle worry behind Aadya's stern demeanor. With a small smile, he assured her,

"I am fine, Teach~" The audience held its breath, observing the exchange with keen interest.

Aadya frowned, not because she doubted Eli's well-being, but rather, because the way he looked at her and his speech seemed a little different from her previous experiences with him.
