Countless spectators waited for the 2nd and final fight in the massive Colosseum, which shone in the brilliant moonlight. The audience was tense and excited in the majestic arena made of solid black stone, while the obsidian walls shimmered in the moonlight. The stands were filled to capacity and the anticipation was palpable. Beta, Epsilon, and Ravenna were gathered at the Colosseum to watch Lilim's fight, while the rest of the team continued to tend to Asmodina recovery at Team Shadow Garden's Demon Castle.

She is a versatile demon, and it is an honor to introduce her to you."

The crowd erupted in thunderous applause as Lilim entered the arena. Lilim is a female beastkin from the Golden Panther clan with blonde hair, large cat ears, purple eyes, and a long tail. Lilim is described as an exceptionally beautiful beastkin with a beautiful tail and golden ears, and she is considered an unparalleled beauty even among the beast races. Her imposing demon sword with blue runes is an artifact of power that dwarfs even the most powerful sword in this academy. Her long hair, steely eyes and determined look show her determination.

Lilim wore her usual slime bodysuit with a large cape over her left shoulder. A stylized jacket hugged her arms and torso, opening below the breastbone where there was an area exposing her cleavage. Her jacket had a short front length that ended around her rib section, while the back reached the length of her calves, with puffy fur accents at the collar and waist, and a section of exposed skin along her hips that extended into the back area. She also had asymmetrical leggings with two solid gold rings circling her right thigh, while three parallel belts circling her left femur. In the light novel, her suit had milled cuffs just before her heels. Her leggings had boots with a V-collar and cuff ends over the cropped stiletto heels with a simple gold lining over the midfoot.

As a surprise a second teacher appeared on the stage introducing herself as Miss Emilia.

Teacher Miss Emilia introduced her student Selena.

Miss Emilia: "And now, our second fighter, Selena! Selena is a master swordsman, a two-time winner of this tournament in the last 10 years, and an expert in the use of magic. With her skillful swordplay potential, she is the best in this academy. Please welcome Selena!"

The crowd erupted in applause and also curiosity since Selena disappeared for 3 years, retaining now from nowhere as Selena walked into the arena. Her outfit consisted of a combination of warrior clothing. She wore a gray cloak with tattered edges and a warrior bra that showed off her figure. Black, short skirts with gold accessories gave her a martial charm. A gray leg stocking on her right leg extended from just above the ankle to mid-thigh, while her left leg was bare except for two straps. Her black gloves and bejeweled headband highlighted her determination. A sapphire necklace completed her outfit.

The fight began and the tension in the air was palpable. Selena drew her sword, and in one fluid movement, swordplay and magic merged. Without hesitation, she created a black hole that sucked in the surrounding matter.

Lilim reacted cleverly and used Beno Levun to break the black hole. Lightning flashed forth, creating a mesmerizing spectacle in the arena.

Selena reacted quickly and activated her magical abilities. With a smooth gesture, she summoned a protective barrier of light that absorbed the lightning and dissolved it in a magical display. Her eyes were determined, and she charged toward Lilim, her sword raised. The spectators were spellbound by this impressive duel.

Lilim, impressed by Selena's reaction, used her demon sword again. She deftly teleported around the battlefield, performing a combination of swordplay and magic. Sparks flew with every clash of their weapons, and the air was filled with magical energy.

Selena swung her sword again as she pursued Lilim, who was flying with her wings. In an impressive maneuver, Selena teleported directly in front of Lilim and their blades clashed.

Lilim was surprised, but she continued to fight and teleported into the sky. The spectators in the arena were fascinated by this unusual fighting event and applauded the fighters for their impressive skills.

Lilim was now up in the air of the Colosseum, and it suddenly became darker. Lilim had used her darkness magic and darkened the arena with light manipulation, giving her a clear advantage. But Selena was by no means powerless. With her enhanced senses and perception, she was able to accurately predict Lilim's attacks despite the darkness.

As Lilim prepared to attack Selena, Selena already knew what was coming. Her clairvoyance and recognition skills had given her a clear advantage. In a clever maneuver, she countered Lilim's attack by aiming her sword blade at Lilim's precisely calculated position. The two swords clashed, sparks flew, and the battle reached a new climax.

But Selena wasn't prepared for Lilim at that moment. In a surprising moment, Lilim used her magic as a weapon. She jumped gracefully into the air as Selena attempted to strike. Lilim managed to hit Selena with a kick, which was extremely painful due to Selena's near lack of armor and protective gear. Selena was caught by the force of the attack and thrown to the ground, but quickly got back up.

But despite the enormous destructiveness of the attack, she stood back up and looked at Lilim with determination. The crowd in the arena was breathless with excitement as they watched the dramatic fight.

Finally, after a breathtaking duel of magic and swordplay, things came to an unexpected end. Selena, summoning all her remaining strength, launched a daring attack. But in a surprising moment, Lilim suddenly teleported away and appeared behind Selena. Lilim cleverly used this opportunity to disarm Selena with a lightning-quick movement, and a blood-curdling scream escaped Selena's lips as she landed with a loud thud on the hard arena floor. Selena lay on the ground, blood trickling from a wound on her shoulder as she struggled to support herself on one arm, gasping for breath. Her right leg was horribly twisted and showed signs of injuries sustained during the fight.

Desperation was in Selena's eyes, and she felt the pain in her body. She knew she was hurting, but she refused to give up.

Selena: "I will never surrender. Never!"

In a desperate act, Selena tried to stand back up, but pain shot through her as she hit her injured leg. The crowd saw her wince and fall to the ground. Her leg was horribly twisted and showed signs of injuries sustained during the fight.

At that moment, Lilim teleported next to her on the ground and held her sword in front of Selena's face while pressing her foot lightly on her stomach. Lilim said, "The games are over, you're beaten." Lilim had won.

Lilim let go of Selena and left the arena.

The crowd erupted in cheers, and Lilim was showered with a torrent of applause and recognition. She had won the battle and demonstrated her extraordinary skills in sword fighting and magic.

While Selena got helped out with a medic team since she couldn't walk. She was deeply sad about this loose. She didn't know soon this will change.
