"I am sorry, guys…" Nath scratched the back of his head, ashamed of his poor performance.
"You did your best." Jin patted his shoulder and asked, "Need some ice?"
"I am fine." Nath sat down and poured water on his head to cool himself down.
While others were occupied by the next match that was about to start, Nath slammed himself in the head a couple of times and repeated:
"Damn it… Damn it."
…
"Whew, haha." Gray Ashworth let out a few chuckles of relief. "It looked dicey in the middle, but in the end, the match ended as expected."
"Hmm, oh…" Muriel looked over to the ring and turned disappointed. "It is not his turn yet, huh…"
"Oh, that must be Ryan Lee." A man with dark hair said. "I heard he is a Natural Fighter."
"Oh?" Gray voiced, raising an eyebrow in curiosity. "Like Johan?"
"Yeah, this might be an interesting matchup."
…
Ryan stepped up to the stage with a cold look on his face. Each step felt more suffocating as Kornelius' intense aura was locked in him.
