"Congratul-"
"You were wonderful, Lily!"
As soon as Lily headed back to Sylvia and her mother, her mother jumped at her, showering her with praise.
"…"
And again, Sylvia could stare blankly at the mother and daughter duo.
"Thanks, Mom."
Lily did not feel an ounce of embarrassment, getting spoiled like that in public.
A few students, who also just fought, passed by them. They threw a glance at them for a second but then ignored them as they headed to the resting hall.
"But can I go to the resting hall first? I feel a bit tired and want to replenish my energy before the next round starts." Lily asked with a tired smile.
"O-oh, sure."
Sylvia watched Lily's movements thoroughly as she walked back.
She had a pensive look while narrowing her eyes.
From her perspective, Lily was way too exhausted.
"Her opponent may have been an A-rank student, however, Lily shouldn't have struggled against him…" she muttered.
