His match should be next.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elisa nodded calmly. \"The arena is still being repaired after Dahlia’s fight, so there is a short delay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion laughed. \"Hahaha! She really did hit him pretty hard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slifera’s mouth twitched. \"Pretty hard? She smashed him into the wall like trash.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Garion could reply, the giant holographic screen suddenly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A new match announcement appeared above the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[First Round - Second Match]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Rovak]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Drakhor Race]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[VS]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Miraq Veln]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Stone Scale Race]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Rovak’s image appeared, Garion’s eyes lit up with interest. \"Oh, there he is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the screen, Rovak walked into the arena with a huge grin on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tall, muscular body, backward-curving black horns, and faint dark-red aura made him look like a battle beast in humanoid form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion rubbed his chin. \"I only met Rovak recently, so I don’t know him as well as you two.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned toward Slifera and Elisa. \"Is he strong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them nodded without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He’s very strong,\" Elisa said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slifera added, \"Annoyingly strong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion raised an eyebrow. \"Annoyingly?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slifera pointed at Rovak on the screen. \"The Drakhor Race is ranked among the top one hundred physically strongest races in the Cosmic Universe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion’s expression finally showed surprise. \"Top one hundred?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elisa nodded. \"Their bodies are naturally powerful.

His opponent also looks tough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slifera nodded. \"The Stone Scale Race specializes in defense. They’re hard to hurt and even harder to knock down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elisa added calmly, \"But compared to Rovak, Miraq’s explosive power should be lower.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in the arena, Miraq stared at Rovak coldly. \"You’re smiling a lot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rovak cracked his neck loudly. \"Hahaha! Of course I’m smiling. A strong-looking opponent came out right after Dahlia’s match.

Looked pretty cool. I wanna try it too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the private viewing room, Slifera immediately covered his face. \"...Idiot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elisa sighed softly. \"He’s really imitating her?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Garion burst into laughter. \"Hahaha! I like this guy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miraq’s face darkened. \"You dare mock me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His stone-like aura erupted around his body as he stomped forward. \"Fine! Then don’t regret it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miraq shot toward Rovak like a moving boulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His massive fist gathered gray energy before slamming directly into Rovak’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BANG!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A heavy impact echoed across the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dust exploded outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when the dust cleared, Rovak was still standing in the same place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grin had only become wider. \"Hahaha...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked down at Miraq’s fist. \"Not bad.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then his dark-red aura slowly rose. \"But you’re gonna need more than that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Miraq’s eyes narrowed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, surprise appeared on his rough stone-scaled face. \"You’re serious...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rovak laughed loudly. \"Of course I’m serious!
