Wins and Cons

I almost died.

That final attack he just did—if I was even a second late in summoning Raijin, I would've died on the spot.

Even with the protective suits on.... I doubt it could've handled that much condensed aura and power alone.

Whimper~

My familiar, Raijin, licked his burnt fur with saddened whimpers, his gaze fixed on Lucas with a glare of anger and animosity.

"Calm down, Raijin…."

Looking at Lucas's tattered body falling to the ground, I'm still in disbelief as to what happened.

"W-Winner, Riley Hell!!!!!"

The announcer, Senior Dilan, announced hypedly, making the crowd go intensely wild with cheers of congratulations and sheer awe.

Looks like I really won… but I don't feel like it.

Although summoning one's familiar wasn't technically illegal in the grand tournament, as familiars were a main fighting source for summoners, it felt like I cheated to win.
