I had no idea how I ended up here, but as I opened my eyes again, I saw myself lying in a hospital bed. The last thing I could remember…
Oh right. I lost the battle against Augustus, which effectively threw me out of the tournament for good. Not too unexpected I guess, any other outcome would've surprised me much more.
At least I managed to hit him as well, which is in fact way more than I had expected of myself. But in the end, he still had the advantage of age and experience, so I was doomed to lose.
I turned my head, looking around the room I found myself in. Most of the other beds in here were left empty. But just as I thought all of them were, I glanced at the final bed to my right.
An all too familiar girl was lying in it. Emilia, the one I had knocked out of the tournament and someone who had tried to get closer to me for a while now.
