There weren't many things that scared Sarah.
She wasn't scared even when facing the Mother of all Spiders back in the Red-ranked Dungeon.
But...
Today, for the first time.
She felt scared.
"Hahahaha."
A hollow and deep laugh echoed within the confines of the waiting room. She reflexively flinched when she turned her head to look at her manager.
Something about him made it hard for her to approach him.
Staring at his phone, he laughed. It was one of the rare times she had ever seen him laugh, and she felt scared by it.
There was something about his laugh that felt unsettling.
"Manager, what's so funny?"
"It's nothing. Just focus on your match for now."
Lowering his phone, the smile wiped off his face.
Sarah felt a chill run down the room and decided against further prying.
"...Okay."
All she could do was prepare for the upcoming match, set to start in the next five minutes.
