There was complete silence in the hall. The only sound breaking it was the rapier striking. A fierce battle was taking place on the fencing strip. The coach paced back and forth with silent steps. The man perfectly understood all the advantages of Ivon Chela, but there was one "but." Coach Valeriano Parra was closely watching Ivon's every step. The third duel was underway, and he was winning. Overall, the guy had incredible talent, lightning-fast intuition, speed, and logic. But the coach understood that Ivon Chela had to overcome his fear completely to win. Finally, the last duel came to an end, and the scoreboard showed fifteen to eight in favour of Ivon. The opponents shook hands, and removing their masks, both approached the coach.
