"What?" Tenny asked with his eyes widening in surprise.
Darey had just told them that their going to Orion depended on them actually beating him. Tenny knew Darey meant business, and he would not joke about something like this. He had also anticipated that Darey would provide a condition should they fail, but he never assumed it would be this harsh.
"You heard me" Darey stated. "The truth is that in your current condition you'll only slow me down. Also know that the both of you were not in my original plan, and so i can't afford to take aby chances, especially if it risks it."
Tenny felt a sting within him, but he did not react. He was sure that it was Darey's intention to motivate him, in order for him to try harder, and that was what he would do. Darey was yet to acknowledge him, and this was his perfect chance.
"I won't lose." Tenny said with conviction.
