He didn't exactly know what to expect out of this situation. Juvia seemed skilled in her wand work but he could tell that Juvia wasn't exactly too confident with her spell work. However, he was quite surprised with how things had been going in this little duel they were having. Aside from having a bit of fun, Levi was also studying just how well Juvia worked a field, an area or just how she duels in general.
She had managed to block off his simple spell much to his delight. A simple spell that he used was deflected by a simple protective charm. Sure enough, it was easy to do, but he wanted to see how she would react to multiple spells. He listened to her deflect the spell away with a small smile on his face as he waited in the corner.
What he didn't expect however, was her next actions. The bright light, revealing his location made him a sitting duck in the field. Levi had to duck roll out of the way of her spell as he retaliated with his own spell. "Confringo!" He called out whipping his wand toward the tree branch above her as he just only managed to dodge her disarming spell.

Juvia felt a surge of confidence when she was able to identify Levi's location. She knew she was exposing herself to analyzing here, but by now, she trusted Levi enough to not really care, and relied on the fact that he would give her the pointers she needed to succeed at dueling. It allowed her focus on the task ahead, and the thrill of this duel permitted her to keep her senses sharp.
As Levi casted "Confringo", Juvia had to look around quickly, fueled by the adrenaline that this duel was allowing her to have. She felt a solid piece of debris from the tree branch hit her shoulder just in time for her to realize it was upwards, and promptly ran backwards to avoid the rest of the collision. Although it wasn't as graceful as she liked, considering the impact of the explosion caused her tumble backwards onto the ground of the Forbidden Forest.
From the dirt, Juvia picked up her wand hand and raised it in aim towards Levi. Time for a more disruptive spell, "Langlock!". The incantation moved from her wand in motivation with the intent to cease him at least temporarily. At the very least, the spell being shot from the ground where she laid allowed her the opportunity to get back to her feet.
Without waiting to see the outcome, Juvia moved swiftly to another position, using the remaining wisps of smoke for cover. She crouched behind a thick tree, her senses on high alert. The forest was eerily quiet, each sound amplified in the stillness of the night.

Levi was shocked to see Juvia's sudden burst of energy. Had she been hiding this for some time? He watched as his confringo spell had hit the branch but she was able to dodge the effects of the spell much to his delight that is. She was able to locate him with ease which proved to Levi she was capable of working an area to her advantage.
In between the fading smoke, Levi was able to see her on the ground and made for a perfect opportunity for him to end the duel. He whipped his wand with a smile on his face. "Exp-" His spell was cut short when Juvia quickly snapped over with her spell. Unfortuantly for Levi, he was caught off guard with this spell.
The spell made contact forcing his tounge to be stuck to the roof of his mouth rendering him unable to produce any spells. His non-verbal magic was no match for this duel. That and he wasn't capable of producing non-verbal magic to use in duels just yet. He lowered his wand as he shook his head feeling his tounge tingling in the process.
He was non-verbal now as he walked around with his wand slipped into his pocket as he walked over to a tree where he knew Juvia was hiding. It was the last thing he saw as he got hit. Upon seeing Juvia, he had a smile on his face as he held out a hand. He was quite proud to see Juvia in her zone even if it took a while for it happen.

Juvia felt another rush of energy with her Langlock spell successfully marking Levi. She watched as he struggled momentarily, then lowered his wand and slipped it into his pocket, acknowledging her success. Juvia took in a deep breath, feeling like she could have kept going if that was the choice. Perhaps it was time to wind down. They were after all, in the Forbidden Forest. Cautiously, Juvia emerged from her hiding spot behind the tree, her wand still at the ready just in case. She saw Levi approaching with a smile on his face, and she relaxed slightly, sensing that the duel was over. His outstretched hand was met with momentary resistance, she had to remind herself that she trusted him before she shook it in return. Uncourtly, her hands were shaking with the adrenaline still soaking through her veins.
"Thank you for the duel," Juvia said, her voice steady. She released his hand and stepped back, just devouring in the fact that a duel like that couldn't ever be possible at Mahoutokoro. Not without getting caught. She let that linger for a moment before she raised her own wand and directed it at his face, "Finite Incantatem" was muttered next.

Levi nodded his head and bowed to carry on with the formalities of the duel. A simple finite spell was all it took for Juvia to release him from the hex to which he was very much relived. " Well done Juvia. " He greeted with a smile on his face. The duel was over and he was pleased with what he saw. There was potential to learn a lot from this and Levi could see how and where he could mentor Juvia to be a formidable duellist.
" You should be proud you know. " He responded clapping slightly. " Not many people are able to land a spell on me. " He responded not to boast but more so to make Juvia feel proud. Levi wasn't a self proclaimed prodigy child when it came to duelling but he was a force to be reckoned with none the less. He enjoyed dueling and wanted to continue doing it during his time at Hogwarts and after Hogwarts. "So wanna go again? "

Juvia felt warm. If not for the fact that she's been excessively moving her body throughout this duel, then for the fact that the praise that Levi was giving her was raising her confidence up just that much. "Thank you, Levi," Juvia replied, her voice steady. A kindness she affords for only a few.
When he suggested another round, Juvia's competitive spirit flared up. "Sure," she replied, her eyes narrowing with determination. "I'm ready." She took a moment to compose herself, gripping her wand firmly and rolling her shoulders back. She was eager to see just how much she can be pushed.

"Someone's keen!" He responded letting out a laugh. Levi was simply joking but it was nice to see that Juvia was always down for a duel should he ever need a person to spar with. " Let's take a little break shall we? " He responded as he shook his head and sat on the ground feeling the earth in his hands.
" Crazy don't you think? " He said as he gazed up and saw the stars twinkling above them. " How we can live in two worlds. It's like a whole other planet on the same planet. " He stated as he took a deep sigh and allowed the tension to drop from his shoulders. " What do you suppose we do now? "

Juvia watched as Levi laughed, appreciating his light-heartedness after their intense duel. Although she feigned disappointment, for the adrenaline was still coursing throughout her veins. It took her a minute, staring down at Levi at the ground, unsure if this too - was ultimately a joke. She allowed herself to settle by joining him on the ground as well. Juvia took in a deep breath, letting herself feel the cool earth with her hands, a much welcome feeling after how warm she got.
Then, she looked up to the sky. "Yeah, it is crazy," Juvia replied, following his gaze up to the star-studded sky. "Sometimes it feels like we're caught between two worlds, doesn't it?"

Now came the post adrenaline rush. The moment where he started to feel a bit tired from all the dueling. " So I think we should head back. " He said as he noticed the moon positioning in a different view point compared to what they had started with. " It's beyond curfew. " He replied switching back into his prefect voice. " Juvia Himura, I will be escorting you back to Hogwarts. " He said in a sarcastic posh voice as he laughed at his own words.
He stood up from the ground just as Juvia had sat. " Well why don't we take a detour? I know there's a nice lake near by? " He suggested with a smile on his face. He was still technically leading Juvia back but he took a more scenic route.

Juvia of course felt amused when Levi took on the role of Prefect. How funny. She scoffed in light humor, standing up and brushing any dirt off her robes. "Lead the way, Prefect Hilfiger," she replied with a smirk, playing along with his sarcasm.
As they walked through the moonlit forest, Juvia thought about Levi's routine. "Do you come here often?" she asked, breaking the comfortable silence. "To practice, I mean."

Even Levi had felt silly with the words he had just said but he did have a responsibility to up hold too. Even if he was just using dark arts in the forbidden forest with another student way past curfew and way past reporting time for prefects post duty. He knew he had to come up with a lie back at Hogwarts but that was going to be a later problem.
"Quite often. " He responded stoically as he walked toward the lake. " It's quiet, away from prying eyes and the perfect place for me to just meditate and gather my bearings. " He added as he looked over to Juvia. " Now, why were you again in the Forest? " Levi had a reason, being a prefect more than anything but he had forgotten why Juvia was there in the first place.

Juvia walked alongside Levi, the night air cool and crisp around them. She glanced at Levi as he spoke, nodding at his explanation. "I can see why you come here," she said, her voice thoughtful. "It's...peaceful in a way."
"Now, why were you again in the Forest?" Juvia hesitated for a moment. The truth was tangled up with her emotions, and she wasn't sure how much she wanted to share. But after their duel, she felt a bit more open. She did trust Levi by now, naturally, but still adding that layer of complexity to their friendship was something she wouldn't be able to come back from. It took her a minute to speak, fiddling with the flower pendant on her necklace as they walked in pure silence while she carefully considered her next words.
"I needed some space," she began, choosing her words carefully. "My grandfather passed away yesterday." This was so intently difficult for her to talk about to the point where she couldn't even reach eye contact with Levi, and focused instead on the path ahead of her. Juvia felt lighter opening up, but also terrified. She's given someone a weakness. She wasn't used to showing vulnerability, but tonight had been different.

Suddenly all the adrenaline rushed out of his body listening to what Juvia had said for her reasoning. " I'm sorry to bring it up. " He responded as he finally arrived at the majestic blue lake which almost looked illuminated to an extent. Possibly from some of the sea creatures with bioluminescence in their system. It was even more magical than the night he had been before.
His eyes shifted from the lake to the ground as a sombre atmosphere set above them like a rain cloud that just lingered. " Would you like to talk about it? " Levi only presumed that after the series of events, venting would actually help or talking about it. He respected that some people also didn't want to talk about such things.He took away his metamorphically speaking prefect hat and put on his friend hat. It seemed that Juvia just needed someone to talk to more than anything.

The glow of the lake added a surreal, calming effect to the moment, and she felt a bit more at ease. "It's alright," she said softly, her gaze fixed on the shimmering water. "He always believed in me, even when my father didn't. I just dunno what to do with that void now." Still unable to make eye contact, Juvia looked to the nearby set of trees, hearing the rustling sound of something. Suddenly her heart was racing and out of instinct, she reached for her wand again. Juvia paused, and had Levi look in the direction of the sound to ensure she was not going crazy.

Levi pushed away all his playful side as a somber mood hung over them. “ I’m sure your grandfather. Would be proud of you. “ He responded taking a moment to absorb his own sentence. He wondered for a second what it would be like to have a parental figure proud of their off spring. Naturally, he didn’t want to direct the focus on him so he focused purely on what she was saying. “ If I can ask, what did he pass away from? “
