A Wind Genasi.

Azriel stood still. He could hear the crowd chanting his name as if he was a god. They were happy that he defeated the guy. Heather told him to act weak or people might suspect his strength.

The man took advantage of him. He broke his nose as if it was an egg. He wiped the blood again and he looked up.

He let his anger get to the other side of him. His opponent was gone now. Only then, he did realize what he did. The man was supposed to be alive. The rule of the game was to keep each other alive no matter what.

He looked in the direction of the Princess to the disappointment on her face but he could not see her face. Ember was happy that he won. She was clapping.

Azriel was impressed but he would have been at ease if Azrael stood as well. But does it matter? She was the emperor's daughter. How will she stand for a low-class man like him?
