Disappointment
"Next up is Vin Hargrave, Rank..." The commentator began.
However, Vin, waiting in his room, found it hard to concentrate.
"I should have lost sooner," he murmured.
He was pleased to have progressed this far in the tournament, but he was acutely aware of his limitations. A defeat felt imminent.
"Well, my luck ends here," Vin declared, getting ready to step out.
When Vin's name echoed through the venue, a frown marred the face of the Hargrave Family Head.
"Isn't he your Son, you should be happy that he got this far," Casie spoke.
"Am I supposed to be happy?" He asked glancing at Casie.
Casie remained silent. Although she was the cherished daughter of Xarax, she understood her boundaries. The man beside her was not just her elder brother, but also the Family Head of the Hargrave Family.
The duel commenced. From the onset, the outcome seemed predictable. Vin's opponent ranked in the mid 300s, and Vin was clearly outmatched.
