The arena was completely silent as they looked at the two currently standing opposite each other.
Given who they were, one would think that the reaction would be an unending cheer, but it was not.
Instead, it felt as if the crowd was anxiously waiting for the herald to give the signal for the start of the match.

His lady had called him her boyfriend.
Although it wasn't a public declaration of their relationship and the crowd hadn't heard it, the fact that she had acknowledged it in front of someone else was more than enough.
It wasn't as though they had been particularly subtle about their feelings for one another, but her words had acted as more of a confirmation of what was already suspected by the Saintess.
Lucian, on the other hand, was in deep thought before finally coming to a conclusion and looking at Adrian.
"Adrian," he called out.
