Jasmin let out a cold laugh, her emerald eyes narrowing as a dangerous glint flickered within them. The faint phantom of a green serpent coiled behind her for a fleeting instant before vanishing into the air.
"Such arrogance."
Her voice was neither loud nor hysterical, yet every word rang with unmistakable contempt.
"You dare mock me?"
A surge of pressure rolled off her body, causing the surrounding mana to ripple faintly.
"Just because you possess a little talent and somehow managed to enter the White Knight Guild..." she sneered, "...do you really believe you've become untouchable?"
She took a deliberate step forward, her gaze locking onto Lukas like a venomous snake sizing up its prey.
"Fine."
"If that's the confidence you're relying on..."
"Fight me."
"I challenge you to a fair duel."
A cold smile slowly spread across her beautiful face.
"I'll make sure today's lesson is one you'll remember for the rest of your life."
