Sora was confident in his sword skills. He could see how it would be confusing, but the battle was different. He had been tired, there had been too many men at once, and they had all panicked and fled, he was wearing armor that he was entirely used to fighting in. It was all a mess.
The Prince gave him a smile. It will be a secret!" If he did it. Probably he'd just seed himself in as a special round or something, to be fair.
Sora gave Riku's hair a gentle stroke. "It is alright, Riku. Tournament is not like battle or a duel, you are not actually trying to hurt each other, just win points." So it was a different kind of combat, really.
There was a knock at the door and Sora gave Riku a nudge so he could get up to get the tea tray and his violin from the servants at the door.
