Luna thought they had to wait for Panterra to announce that he had yielded over Apollyon verbally, but he didn't.
She guessed that the Feline King was too proud to do just that, so Cederic had bestowed Apollyon's victory without further ado.
Luna's brows knitted in confusion.
Cederic had mentioned the sword duel rules that Panterra had to admit defeat before Apollyon could be declared the victor.
Perhaps, he honestly forgot.
Luna doubted that the Feline King would admit defeat in his own words when his actions had spoken louder.
The shameful proceeding had sapped the poor panther's ability to feign a feeble enthusiasm for becoming a sport.
She kept repeating the same thought repeatedly, willing the military general to remember the rules of the game.
Panterra had to proclaim that he had lost before they could proceed.
