Few hours later....
"How is this even possible? A draw? Damn it!"
On the way back to the dormitory, Leona grumbled, clearly dissatisfied with the result.
For the record, she, Ryen, and Leo all had the exact same record—
1 win, 4 draws, 0 losses.
The matches between the three of them had all been declared draws under the professors' mediation, and each of them held a record of 1 win and 2 draws against the professors.
Even with restrictions in place, the fact that they'd managed to draw against Professor Aria and Professor Lena was insane.
"Ugh, damn it… I could've won if I'd just done a little better," Leona muttered, kicking at the ground.
I thought back to how it went in the original story.
In that timeline, after her duel with Leo, she had stood frozen on the arena floor, staring at her trembling hands.
"I… lost…?" she whispered, as if she couldn't believe it.
Leo had smirked, brushing nonexistent dust from his sleeve.
