My second fight was over in ten minutes. I barely broke a sweat, let alone burned much mana. With no more matches lined up, I thought I could finally go back to sleep in peace.
I stood to leave, already preparing my half-hearted goodbyes to the other participants, when my smartwatch buzzed.
{You were voted by Student Rank #23 First-Year, Aurora Knight, to duel at 9:30 P.M.}
My brows furrowed. 'Another top-ranked student? Have they all gone insane?' If Luella hadn't provoked me earlier, I could've just surrendered quietly and kept lying low.
[Correction: you were the one who couldn't control your temper, and now you're blaming it on the girl?]
The system's blunt remark popped up in front of me like a slap.
'But it's true! I don't even know her, and now Aurora wants to duel me? What did I ever do to her?'
I ruffled my hair in frustration, glaring at the notification again. 'And why 9:30? She couldn't have chosen, oh, I don't know, maybe six or seven?'
