Arthur Crimson

💥 Intro Scene – The Newbie Challenge ("Lion's Claw" Academy – Free Training Night)

A new student, Derek, a big guy at 6'3", challenges Arthur after class:

Derek (teasing): "Professor, they say you're the best. Shall we go for a few rounds? I want to see if it's not a myth."

The gym goes silent. Arthur wipes the sweat from his face, looks at Lena (who rolls her eyes) and then at Derek.

Arthur (smiling, taking off his mouth guard): "Of course, champ. But it's worth warning: I don't teach only with words."

(Round 1) Derek comes forward with a heavy punch. Arthur dodges, spins, and applies a smooth takedown, taking Derek down without hurting him.

Arthur (helping him up): "Brute force without technique is just noise. Again?"

(Round 3) Derek is already exhausted. Arthur, not even sweating. He finishes with a controlled punch stopping 1cm from his chin.

Arthur (quietly, just for Derek to hear): "If it were real, you would have already woken up in the hospital. But it has potential. Let's train properly?"

Derek, once arrogant, is now respectful.
