chapter 286: Show me some magic

"You want to fight me?" Apollo asked, his voice even sounding amused. "Do you understand what you're asking for?"

The boy squared his shoulders, trying to appear unfazed. "I want to prove myself. Everyone says you're the strongest first-year, but I think it's just talk."

Apollo tilted his head, a faint smile tugging at his lips. "Very well. But don't say I didn't warn you."

"Alright my name is Nelo Fernandez I am a third-year student and shall oversee this match"

Apollo and his supposed enemy both nodded as the so-called overseer or referee began explaining the rules of the match.

"None of you are allowed to use scrolls or any enchanted weapons or even potions. The only thing you can rely on is your own skills and no external help shall be allowed. The match will end once either of you is knocked unconscious or by surrendering"

He explained, and then he gestured to the two to get ready.
