"Fight me."

Arvina spoke with a serious look on her face.

"H-Huh?"

Nux didn't know how to react, there were many scenarios that he had played in his mind, however, this was definitely not something he expected.

"Fight me."

Thinking that he didn't hear her clearly, Astaria repeated.

"F-Fight you?"

Nux frowned.

"Yes."

"I-I thought the test was only defeating the Shadow Unit…?"

Nux questioned.

If it was the Shadow Unit, defeating them was simple, however, Astaria was in a completely different league of her own.

Heck, if Nux had what it takes to defeat her, he wouldn't even be here, asking for her permission to go to another Kingdom.

Why would the strongest seek any sort of permission?

It wouldn't make sense.

"It has nothing to do with the test, you already passed it."

Astaria replied to Nux's question.

"If I already passed, then why bother fighting now?" Nux couldn't understand.

"You held back."

Astaria revealed and Phorus and Iria's eyes widened in horror.

They turned towards the battlefield again and seeing so many bodies lying on the ground, their heart skipped a beat.

'T-This was him h-holding back?'

They couldn't believe what Astaria said, and thought of another possibility,

'Could it be that Lady Astaria judged incorrectly?'

"Well, I did hold back a little, but that has nothing to do with this test, does it?"

However, Nux's answer left them even more speechless.
