Battle

Screams and yells coming from the crowd echoed in my ear as I wear my armor and prepare myself from the final battle... They were screaming my name in cheer. I stood from my seat and faced the mirror. A grin curved onto my lips on the realization that I'm about to be the strongest being on Dexo Fernia – and soon be crowned as their queen.

Holding my double-bladed swallow on my left hand, I walked through the only barrier keeping me locked outside the coliseum. Emotionless I waited for it to be removed out of my sight and the cheers grew louder every second. And as the wood barrier was slowly removed, those cheers just grew even louder.

"VERONICA! GO VERONICA! GO VERONICA!!"

I held my head high when I was called. "Let's give it up... to the Herald of Dexo Fernia, the shadow assassin! The daughter of Hikaris himself… VERONICA!"
