Wizard duels had plenty of status attached to them, but the point was to show off, not to kill your opponent... barring a personal grudge. Godric had been doing rather well when Salazar asked, "Are you that good in a real fight?"
Having defeated Salazar's elder sister and two cousins, Godric replied warily, "I hope so. Was that a hypothetical question or a challenge?"
Salazar gave a startled laugh. "Neither. Have you thought of dragon-hunting?"
"I might try it one day."
"With only two wizards?"
"...Are you mad?"
"So everyone says."
"And breathtakingly audacious. When shall we start?"
Salazar grinned.
