Hyde lost...When he finally came to realize this, Hyde started to feel a lot of different emotions welling up in his chest, making him feel stuffed and uncomfortable. Among these emotions, there was unwillingness, anger, annoyance but most of all, Hyde was just feeling disappointed.All of Hyde's feelings were too mixed and complicated that even he himself didn't really know what to make of them, but if there was one thing Hyde knew, it was that his defeat was well deserved.Hyde did not hate Arran after losing to him, neither did he blame him for eliminating him from the tournament. Although it was a pity that he wouldn't be able to continue on for the rest of the ceremony nor would he be able to fulfill the wish of his master, still, despite all this, Hyde didn't hate Arran at all.For the most part, Hyde simply hated the fact that he wasn't strong enough.He was angry at himself for being too weak to defeat a peer of his.Hyde didn't con

"Hey Arran, how do you think these participants will react when they find out that you hadn't even used your full power to fight at all? Thinking about it now, it would be quite a hilarious scene to witness. I can almost imagine the looks on their faces already!"As Renee spoke, she had a glazed look in her eyes as she raised her head to the sky and started imagining the looks on the other participants' faces when they fight Arran and realize that he was more powerful than they had thought. Just thinking about how much despair Arran's next opponent would be in as he found out that the strategy he had come up to deal with Arran was not going to be effective because Arran was more powerful than he had imagined.The thought of seeing something like that really excited Renee. But more than that, Renee was actually excited about something else.Looking at Arran with fervor, Renee said to him, "As much as it would be very interesting to watch other people fall into de

The signal for the first match of the second round sounded out and both participants to fight in the first round started making their way onto the stage. As it turns out, the first participants who would be opening the stage for the second round of the tournament was Brianna who had drawn a bye in the first round prevention her from fighting then.Brianna's opponent was somebody who had fought in the first round, but her performance had not been anything outstanding compared to the rest of the participants.Like most participants here, during her match, she had struggled to win against her opponent as they went back and forth. It was only by gaining a little advantage over her opponent that this participant had just barely been able to secure a victory. At most, she had only been able to avoid suffering a serious injury from that fight, unlike some other participants.Brianna's opponent in the match was Jenna, the teammate of Hilda and Hyde, who from the very be

Brianna stood motionless as she cautiously stared into the colorful poison pollen cloud ahead. She was very wary about what could be hidden inside, as there was a faint sense of danger radiating from inside the cloud.Indeed, just as Brianna expected, sensing some movement coming from inside the cloud-like that of rushing air when an object is moving at top speed, Brianna quickly turned her body to the side in haste to once again dodge a fast-moving projectile.Stopping in place and stabilizing her body, Brianna had a solemn look in her eyes.It was already confirmed...There was something hidden inside the colorful poison pollen cloud that had not been used in Jenna's previous match. It should be a new type of plant that is able to shoot very fast projectiles towards others. As it was hidden inside the pollen cloud, it was difficult to pinpoint the location of this new plant, and the only thing one could do was dodge the speeding projectiles.Bria

The unknown was the most terrifying...People feared what they did not know and what they could not understand. This is a subconscious kind of fear that is unreasonable and cannot be explained in simple words. But when something seizes to no longer be a mystery... when the unknown becomes known, fear gives way to understanding and understanding gives way to courage.This was an irrevocable truth that relates to the link between fear and courage.Faced with the unknown, there are very few individuals that will be able to remain fearless, but most times, a fearless person is not always a courageous one. Most of the time, fearlessness can sometimes be attributed to recklessness or worse, ignorance.In the universe, there is nothing that was more fatal than ignorance, and it is worse when ignorance is followed closely by weakness. Ignorance and weakness in the dangerous universe are always the precursors to death and annihilation.They are the two grea
