Soon, a frustrated Draven was lead down the hole to the pathway connecting the two doors under the water fall.

"Good day, master, you summoned me?" Draven gritted his teeth, he swore that ever since he became one of the 30 sky mages of duan city he had been plagued with competition.

It felt like he was a punching bag, this was not a nice feeling.

"Ehhh, our friend here would like to engage in a friendly match with you, I approve of it, so don't be too worried about holding back. He is strong enough" the elder swordhand explained loudly.

But for precious.

"It's your position as a sky mage that's on the line here, you had best defeat this guy or you're dead" the elder whispered into Draven's ear. He wasn't happy about what happened the past few days, but there was nothing he could do about it apart from advise.
