"That was too intense," Gideon murmured to himself as he watched Lady Deni's lifeless body being removed from the arena. He then turned to Gilas and asked, "Do you think Clara's alright?"
"She's not. This is her first time killing a fellow Cordonian," Gilas sighed.
"Right… Clara was so pale earlier," Gideon nodded in agreement. "She's someone who didn't really intend to kill in this tournament. She would usually either ask her opponent to yield or she herself would yield if knew she had already lost. But this Lady Deni was quite fast with her movements… She fought intending to kill, and if Clara didn't see her opportunity to strike through her defenses, then this fight would've likely ended with a different result…"
