This time, it was Cougar who approached Spade. Meanwhile, at the temple above the clouds... "Hey, Glen, come here for a moment." Glen, who had been waiting in the back, entered the hall when Ashlan called. "What is it?" "Take a look at this. It's interesting." The scene on the ground was being projected on the floor in front of Ashlan's chair. Glen approached and looked at the projection, his eyes widening as he saw the blonde man. "Master Cougar!" Cougar seemed to be fighting someone. "Where is this?" "It's the holy land." "The holy land?" "Yeah, they seem to be having fun. I'm glad I introduced him to her." Ashlan laughed. "To whom?" Glen asked. "That Gerbera over there. She recently became Cougar's lover." "What... what!?" Glen was extremely surprised. "Don't tell Harold." "When did that happen?" "Recently. Thanks to her, he's been quite fulfilled lately. It's a good thing." Ashlan seemed very pleased. Glen couldn't believe that Yuri and Cougar had gotten together so quickly. Glen looked at the man Cougar was fighting. (Isn't he the fairy who was with her back then? Are they fighting over her?) Glen's imagination ran wild, and his heart raced. Someone entered the hall. Ashlan was startled but relaxed when he saw it was Arias, leaving the floor projection as it was. Arias approached and looked at the floor, his eyes widening when he saw Cougar. "Ah, Cougar, stop him! What if his face gets scarred?" Arias said in a panic. The two on the ground were seriously fighting. "Cougar is a respectable adult." "I love that face of his!" Arias exclaimed. "Overprotection is not good." "He's not suited for this kind of fight." "That's not true. He's had proper sword training. Cougar is the disciple of the Sword Saint Bron." "That was 900 years ago! He got so many wounds back then, and I was so worried!" "Well, well, let's watch a bit more." Ashlan restrained the excited Arias. On the ground, Spade easily dodged Cougar's attacks and countered, seemingly not even using half his strength. Cougar blocked Spade's attacks with his shield of light. When Cougar counterattacked, Spade blocked it with his sword held in both hands. Spade quickly closed the distance and, releasing his right hand from the sword, grabbed Cougar's shoulder and pushed him down. Cougar's back hit the ground. "You've got quite the strength. I'm surprised." Spade said, looking down at Cougar, who found the act humiliating.
