The Duel [1]

Both Shin Daerin and Oh Sookyung stood at the forest clearing— opposite to each other. While Shin Daerin stared fiercely at the man standing opposite to her, Oh Sookyung had a casual expression upon his face.

The sun was beginning to rise, and the sky above them was tinted with various shades of colours. Cries of the birds could be heard, and the morning breeze blew by them.

A yawn left Jiwoo's mouth, and squinting her eyes, she turned towards Min Hyungwon, who stood at the right to her.

"Why are you staying silent after bringing me here so early? Can't we do this later on? I am really sleepy," Jiwoo vocalised.

"The lack of sleep would not be killing you," he pointed out, "Since the two of you barely have any time, you will have to utilize all the time possible in order to practice."

"Nice to know that the lack of sleep would not be killing me," Jiwoo sarcastically spoke out.
