Mount Olympus Stadium (3rd Person Pov)

OST: Battle (At The Top)

Announcer: Gods and Goddesses! Welcome to the preliminary rounds of the Tournament of Mythologies!

Y/n: That's the best they could come up with?

Atalanta: They probably left it to Apollo and Hermes

Y/n: They probably did, anyway... where's Caenis?

Announcer: The rules of this tournament are simple! To book your place in the quarter-finals you'll need to collect 70 battle points in total from your 5 placement matches, winning two of your three matches within a battle will give you 10 points whilst winning all 3 of them will give you 30 points!

Atalanta: 70 points? So two flawless victories and a normal win would book our place for the quarters

Y/n took a look at the teams' list

Y/n: We should hope we don't get paired with the Celtics... they might be the biggest threat in this entire tournament

Atlanta: Hm?

Y/n: Cú Chulainn, Diarmuid Ua Duibhne and... my old mentor

Atalanta: Your old mentor?

Y/n: Scáthach

Atalanta: A god slayer like her was your mentor?

Y/n: What? Is that surprising?

Atalanta: *Sighs* Yes, yes it is

Y/n: Oh... well as I am now I have no chance of beating her

Atalanta: Seriously?!

Y/n: Not even a slight bit, in my current state it'll be a miracle if I even manage to knock her out of the arena

Atalanta: Then what about the Norse team?

Y/n: Siegfried, Skadi and Brynhildr, it won't be easy that's for sure but if I can release some of the seals on my sword then it's possible

Y/n looked up from the list and around the room seeing all the opponents and who'd he potentially be facing

Y/n: (There's a lot of strong opponents, stronger than me if I'm not careful then-)

???: Hey you!

Y/n opened his eyes to be met with a 5ft girl

Mordred: That's right!
