<Choi Palace>

"...Yeah this was the last gun in the arsenal." The commander stated as Seungcheol and Jeonghan felt content.

"Jeonghan, what's your favorite weapon?" Seungcheol asked.

"Sword, no doubt." Jeonghan chuckled.

The commander nodded, "I'll show you some new swords of our arsenal." He showed them several swords and explained about them briefly.

Jeonghan took a sword he liked, "This is majestic."

"You like it?" Seungcheol picked another, "This one looks better though."

"Wanna try?" Jeonghan grinned, "It has been so long."

"Why not?" Seungcheol nodded.

"But..." The commander intervened, "The strength of the swords also depend on the warrior."

"Don't worry, we won't blame the swords." Jeonghan stated as he and Seungcheol walked in the middle of the practice ground.

"Your highness, any rules?" The commander asked.

"You say." Seungcheol looked at Jeonghan.

"No kicks and use of other hand." Jeonghan raised his spare hand keeping it at his back, "Only the swords should clash."

"First one to drop the swords on the ground will lose." Seungcheol completed.

The commander backed away as the other staff members also focused on the sword fight, the kings were going to have.

"Don't play dirty." Seungcheol warned while looking at the younger from top to bottom.

"I wonder what you mean." Jeonghan raised his sword, taking the lead to attack.

Seungcheol defended after which their swords kept clashing, the satisfying sound of the sharp metals striking, echoed.

The battle was intense as the two most powerful warriors of the kingdom were clashing against each other. The fight was endearing to watch as the learners were keenly taking notes.

"I see, you're trying too hard to win." Jeonghan whispered.

"What's the point of winning this battle when I've clearly surrendered to your eyes long time ago?" Seungcheol grinned.

"Flattering doesn't win battles, Mr. Choi." Jeonghan retorted.

"But it might help me win YOU." Seungcheol winked as their swords roared in unison.

The battle gave goosebumps to whoever was watching. Even if they weren't using any spells, the fire and ice element seemed to clash skillfully.

The duo's weapons were stuck against each other as both of them refused to back away.

"Darling, your gaze is much sharper than the sword." Seungcheol whispered.

"Don't try to play dirty, your highness. I don't melt during battles." Jeonghan grunted.

"Thanks for specifying." Seungcheol chuckled, "May I know when is the best time to flatter you?"

"Probably when you're ready to bow down on your knees." Jeonghan winked.

"To worship you?" Seungcheol retorted, "Always ready for that."

They pushed each other as they stood at a distance while their eyes met.

Seungcheol flipped his sword in the air with the intention to catch it back.

But before it could reach his grip again, Jeonghan sliced the sword into two as the pieces fell on the ground.
