That doesn't sound like a fun ritual. And yes - Ares is pretty cool, in his way. He's fun to watch. I'd say I'd be honored to fight with him as well, but he'd never let me go. Battles are no place for a woman, rawr rawr rawr! He's so cute. He was impressed with you, too - he'd probably tell you his side of any story if you asked. Be careful, though - Dite's expecting, and if you get too friendly, you get roped into babysitting.
