Orion walks onto the stage with a calm and composed expression.

He could see Ganesha standing beside his next opponent.

After facing off against a few contestants yesterday and today, Orion had developed a stronger sense of confidence in himself concerning the tournament.

His current opponent was William Ramsbottom and this would be his final battle for today.

If he won against the Earl's son, Orion would automatically qualify for the final battle occurring tomorrow.

Standing before the Earl's son, Orion noticed William and Ganesha bowing before him.

After he acknowledged them, William spoke before Ganesha officially began the match.

"It will be an honor to fight against you, Your Highness. May the best elf win."

"Indeed," Orion replied and the both of them assumed their battle stance.

Both of them brandished their swords after pulling them from their item box, ready to make the first move.

Ganesha noticed both were ready and he signaled for them to fight. "Fight!!" He yelled and the crowd roared in excitement.

Orion and William leaped towards each other, leaving a small crack on the ground as they did so.

The sound of the sword clashing against the sword echoed loudly, even with the loud cheers of the crowd.

Mages and knights lower than rank Three were unable to keep up with William and Orion's movement.

They struggled to discern exactly where they were. The only thing most rank one and two mages could see were sparks flying within the arena at rapid successions.

The intense battle continued for three whole minutes with several craters scattered around the arena.

However, neither of them showed any signs of fatigue or giving up.

The dust around the arena rose, making it a bit difficult for some of the spectators to know what was currently going on.

This would be the final battle of the semifinal round, and the winner between the two of them would be the one to fight against Orion at the finals.

The loser would also be allowed to come to the coliseum tomorrow, but they would have to fight against William Ramsbottom for third place.

All these had been explained to everyone before the first fight for the day began.

Orion relaxed in his seat and watched Adrian's match.

He tried not to doze off, but he was feeling very sleepy and before he knew it, Orion had fallen asleep.

Meanwhile, back at the castle, in the capital city of the elf kingdom, Evelyn could be seen walking back to her bedroom.

Ever since Evelyn woke up this morning, she had been attending to her royal duties and she'd barely had enough time to squeeze in her personal activities.

When she thought she could finally make her way to the Coliseum to watch Orion's fight, Evelyn was notified of more things she had to do, and now she couldn't make it back there because Orion had already qualified for the final which would be coming up tomorrow.

She had been busy all day long, so she wanted to use this time to get as much rest as she could before leaving the castle first thing tomorrow morning to watch the finals.

There was no way she was going to miss watching the finals.

Evelyn opened the door of her bedroom and walked into her room to find Mia and Elena watching the remaining battles that were currently being displayed on the crystal ball.

"You're back," Elena said, noticing Evelyn walking in her direction.

"Yes."

"How was it?"

"Stressful as always, what about yours?"

"The same," Elena sighed deeply before returning her gaze back to what she was watching.

Just like Evelyn, Elena had been busy all day long. She was finally able to complete her tasks a couple of minutes ago, so she came to Evelyn's room to rest.

Evelyn glanced toward Mia and noticed Mia sleeping on Elena's lap. "It seems even Mia is tired as well," Evelyn said with a smile on her face.

Elena giggled and replied while stroking Mia's hair. "Yeah, she is. The moment she noticed Orion wouldn't be battling anyone else today, she instantly fell asleep."
