Who Tricked Who?

"Thersland wins!"

"Uoh!" The cheers erupted because Thersland was one step away from third place. If they could defeat their opponent in the next one, they would be able to gain the honor.

Mami bit her nail with a frustrated expression.

"What should we do now?" Masahiko asked.

Mami closed her eyes for a moment. "There is nothing we can do other than to do our best. Theodore and Alea will come up next. With Miyoko unable to control himself in front of Theo, Masahiko and I will go this round. Even then, they still have Phyrill, Laust, and Ellen as their backup."

All of them closed their eyes, knowing that everything seemed to be under Theo's control.

Still, the one thing that defeated them was a mere small gesture.

"I'm sorry. If I didn't tell you anything about his frustrated expression…" Masahiko clenched his fists.
