"I... I lost."
The smoke eventually cleared, and all the spectators saw the outcome of the clash. As they did, they were all stunned speechless by what they saw.
Nyx, the girl who had displayed overwhelming power just moments ago, now lay on the ground, barely conscious. A frown marred her beautiful face, with two lines of tears streaming from her eyes.
"Just a little more, and I would've won," Nyx thought, staring at Wendy, who was looming over her with the sun shining behind her and her hand outstretched.
"Y-you're strong. I still can't believe you actually forced me to use one of my trump cards," Wendy stated. "For a five-year-old, you're too strong. I'm sure if you continue at this pace, a few years from now, even I wouldn't be a match for you. How about we become friends? I can be your big sister when you come to the Academy."
