"Challenger Candice used Mana.
Disqualified.
Round Two ends.
Score, 2-0
This concludes today's battle.
Winner, Nux Leander."
Arvina announced in an expressionless tone.
However, again, Nux could notice the slight disappointment in her tone.
Well, he can't blame her either, Candice was her personal student after all.
He finally stepped away and just smiled.
On the other hand, when her attack was nullified, Candice finally realized what has happened,
"I… I lost…" She muttered, her disbelief was clear in her tone.
"Candice Water, you did not lose." Nux, however, shook his head.
"Huh?" Candice turned towards Nux and frowned. Actually, his words filled her with some hope.
It was a best of five.
No, it was a dream.
Yes, this was just a bad dream, everything would disappear after she wakes up.
"You did not lose, Candice." Nux smiled.
"…" Candice glanced at Nux, waiting for him to continue.
"You lost overwhelmingly."
