"No matter how I look at it, I'm weak. Physically, I'm no match for that Commander. When it comes to Mana, Yarnha outclasses me. Though she's a whole Forest, so I don't know if that counts. Lin had two of those High Elven Pupils, while I only have the one. In Status, Raven outclasses me so much that I could barely move in his presence. Feels like if he had told me not to breathe, my body would have stopped doing so. There's nothing where I can consider myself strong. It's not that I was stronger. You were just weaker."
The white-scaled Monster shrugged.
"Get it? It's a simple distinction really."
No answer came from the Ex-General, who clenched his teeth until they bled.
'Ice Magic... There was no way he could have reacted to my lightning in time! He completely read my timing and erected a barrier of Ice! Son of a bitch!'
Never had he been as humiliated.
Never did he think such humiliation was possible.
He lay there, silently.
