"After that first battle…we decided to go for a single fighter before we go to our next big time match. Now…all the way from Elibe! This Lord fights for honor as he protects his land with blade in hand. He is the Young Lion! So welcome…Roy!" Vi Per said as Roy entered.
"You can do this!" Eliwood called out.
"Bring victory!" Lyn called out.
"We believe in you!" Lilina added.
"It's finally Roy's turn." Hope said.
"Yes." Spade said.
"Leave this one to me guys, I'm gonna bring the heat." Stahn said, jumping down to the arena and drawing Dymlos.
"Go for it, Stahn!" Luke said.
"And now for Roy's opponent… Born and raised in the remote village of Lienea, this simple country boy was chosen by the Swordian Dymlos, and has proven himself to be a superb swordsman! He is the Bearer of the Crimson Flames! Give a shout for…Stahn…Aileron!" Vi Per announced.
"So…here we are." Roy said.
"Indeed." Stahn said.
"And the location this time is…Find Mii! So…let the battle begin!" Vi Per said as the two appeared on a ruined castle.

"Here we go!" Stahn said. "Azure Edge!" he called, launching a blast of energy through the air.
"Ha!" Roy cried out as he drew his blade and parted the energy attack in two.
"Dragon Swarm!" Stahn called, dashing in and performing a rapid series of four wide slashes on Roy. "Frigid Moon!" he followed up by slashing upward and creating a crescent moon of ice before shattering it as he slashed downward.
"Take…this!" Roy said, sending a flaming slash right at Stahn and landing a direct hit.
"Rising Phoenix!" Stahn called as he recovered and dive attacked Roy while the image of a flaming Phoenix appeared over him.
"Here we go!" Roy said as he reeled his sword back before thrusting at Stahn to land a Critical Hit.
"Not bad, but it's not over yet." Stahn said as he activated his Level 3 Mystic Arte. "Aaaahh! O scorching blade of deepest scarlet... Show us your true shape! And burn my enemies to their very souls! Finishing Strike! Blazing Apocalypse!" he said as he pointed his sword in the air to charge it with fire, and then performed a horizontal spin followed by a vertical slash to force Roy into the air. As he falls back to the ground, he surrounds himself with a spiral of flames as he thrusts his sword into the ground. Afterward, he charges through Roy, then turns around to send a wave of flames through him as he dashes back. Finally, he somersaults into the air and slams back into the ground, creating a massive eruption of flames that destroys everything in front of him.
"Whoa! Whoa! Dial it back, man!" Vi Per said as she saw Roy flying out of there. "And…the winner is Stahn." she said.
"Alright!" Stahn said, doing a victory pose as he raised Dymlos in the air. "Sorry, Roy!" he yelled, apologizing while sweat dropping.
"I have never felt such flames since the Lord of Inferno." Y'shtola said.
"Well, when it comes to fire, Stahn is one of our best." Kokoro said.
"That he is." Y'shtola said.
"Yes…however in the future…could we ask you to hold back just a bit. Your flames almost broke through the barrier protecting the spectators." Vi Per said.
"Sorry, I'll remember next time." Stahn said.
"Good…now…let's keep things going. We have a big match coming up in a few moments…one that will entertain you all, I guarantee." Vi Per said.
