Fox, Hero and Delinquent - Recovering from battle

Yumiko felt exhausted. Even her bones ached while sitting beside Erika in the medicinal bath. Not long after, they lost their sixth duel against the trio and the petty Kathryn. They both found themselves in this warm, medicinal bath. 

"Hey... Erika, do you think that Ryuji could win if he fought those women like us?" Yumiko's voice sounded dejected and lacked her usual vigour. 

The water splashed as Erika dragged her bruised arms through the strange, green water, feeling a slight tingling sensation before she released a pleasant groan. "Nn, this water is so nice. Mmm Ryuji? I don't know. He'd probably keep fighting until he won by sheer determination." She finished with a small chuckle.
