Different world, different body, different face,\" he added. \"This body didn’t match any memory I had.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden nodded slowly, thinking it through. \"That fits possession-type cases.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rachel finally spoke, her voice gentle and calm. \"Does that trouble you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion shook his head without hesitation. \"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at his hands, opening and closing his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This body is mine now,\" he said simply. \"I trained it. I pushed it.

Master,\" she said, \"have you ever tried to find out who this body originally belonged to?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion blinked. \"Nope.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia stared. \"...Just like that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion shrugged. \"Too lazy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several people groaned at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"At the start,\" Garion continued, \"this body was weak. Really weak.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waved his hand. \"So I trained. Ate. Slept. Trained again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shrugged again. \"After that, I forgot about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia sighed. \"Typical Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rested her hands on her hips. \"Still, do you want to know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion paused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia continued, \"It could’ve been a normal person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced at him. \"Or someone important. The body quality is good. Really good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion rubbed his chin, thinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...We’ll talk about it later,\" he said finally. \"After this match.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked toward the arena clock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s already been thirty minutes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia followed his gaze and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright,\" she said. \"Business first.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion nodded once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah,\" he said. \"Let’s win this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mood around the God Gym side shifted immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smiles sharpened into focus. Bodies straightened without anyone needing to say another word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stepped forward and raised his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir Sorien,\" he called out, his tone clear and steady, \"we’re prepared.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien turned from the Solmira platform, sunlight reflecting softly off his robes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you ready?\" Garion asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sorien smiled calmly. \"Of course. We’ve been ready.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lifted one hand slightly, and at his signal, a Solmira member stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man was tall, dressed in clean white robes with pale gold lines along the sleeves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was calm, his breathing steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped at the center of the arena and stood there quietly, waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A low murmur spread through the stands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion turned back to his disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So,\" he said, crossing his arms, \"who wants to go first?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could finish the sentence...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several hands shot up at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Valtor raised his arm high and laughed. \"Let me warm up the arena!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rynor cracked his knuckles. \"I’m in.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rynar stepped forward half a step. \"First round’s important.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clara bounced on her heels. \"Pick me, pick me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Seira opened her eyes and said flatly, \"I will.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion stared at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...All of you?\" he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dahlia grinned. \"Obviously.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arden swallowed and raised his hand a little later than the others. \"...I can go too, if needed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion rubbed his chin and looked from one face to the next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The energy was high.
