A few hours passed, and their duel finally concluded. Both Alex and Brittany now sat on a bench, panting heavily from the exertion.
"Hahhh..."
"Aah..."
"I'm tired," they both said in unison, their exhaustion evident.
Aseira walked closer and handed them each a bottle of cold water. "Here, it seems the duel was intense," she remarked, a hint of amusement in her voice.
"Thanks... was it?" Alex asked, taking the bottle and gulping down a refreshing swig.
Aseira nodded. "Yeah, the guards were so engrossed in watching that they forgot about their duties," she chuckled.
Alex laughed, wiping the sweat from his brow. "Well, I guess we put on a good show," he said, glancing at Brittany. "Didn't we?"
