“Are you sure you want to do that?”

"Yes," Lapunta nodded slightly as he laid still on a stone bed with magical carvings. “I must secure my own existence.”

"But you will be weak...", Lutes looked at Lapunta with a puzzled expression, and at the same time, the index and middle fingers of his hands joined together, touching the sides of Lapunta's temples to perform the ritual. “You can still defeat them in this match…”
