The terms of the duel

You walk through the dark void. You see Hilda standing alone and she smiles. "So, have you decided?"

You nod. "Yes, I want to discuss the terms of the duel."

"Very well." Hilda nods.

You and Hilda talk for hours. Hilda was surprisingly easy to talk to. She was very intelligent, and well mannered..., and beautiful... No! No! Don't let her looks lower your guard.

"So, it will be a battle of swordsmanship." Hilda said as she sat down.

You nod. "No allies, no magic, no traps."

"Agreed." Hilda holds out her hand. "So, it's a deal then."

You hold out your hand to seal the deal, but you stop. "There is one thing we haven't discussed." Hilda tilts her head in confusion. "If you win, I surrender my kingdom, but what if I win?" You were so worried about losing that you didn't think of what you would get.

"Oh yes, you're right. Well since I told you my demands, its only fare for you to decide." Hilda said in a calm voice.

You tried to think. Surrender her kingdom? No, they don't own any land currently. Give you control of the demon army? No, you could barely control your own court. As you tried to think you start to look at Hilda once again. Her snow-white hair, her flawless dark skin, her curvy body, and those blood red eyes. "You..."

Hilda looks surprised. "Me?"

You snap out of your trance and shake your head. "N-No. What I want is... um.."

Hilda smiled and laughed. Her laugh was like honey to your ears. "I see. If you win, you want me to serve under you." You nod your head trying to save face. "Very well. I will serve you and your kingdom if you are victorious." She holds out her hand and you two finally shake hands. There was a bright light that came from your hands. As the light faded you see a mark on your hand. "That marking will teleport you to the place we will duel." She shows a similar mark on her hand. "I'll be looking forward to it." With a smiles she turns and walks away.

You wake up. You look at your hand and see the mark. You knew this would be difficult. But you must win for your family, for your kingdom, and to have her..." "No, stop acting like a teenager." You say to yourself. "She's a demon. A dangerous and powerful demon." You see that it is just about dawn and you get dressed and head to the training grounds.
