The Colosseum remained deathly silent for a moment, the sheer presence of the wyvern suffocating the air.
Everyone heard Alex's words between the growls of the wyvern.
The beast's molten eyes flickering with predatory hunger, however, reminded them of who Alex's opponent was.
The beast raised massive wings, their edges crackling with residual golden energy from the seal that had bound it for so long.
Then, the chaos resumed.
"What the hell is Alex supposed to do against that?!"
"It's a dragonic species! That's not something a student can fight!"
"Varacius is insane! Did he seriously think he could control that thing?"
The panic rippled through the audience, as they felt second-handed nervousness.
But not everyone shared the same sentiments. Among the crowd were the powerful figures who remained composed.
