CIARA MERLIN'S POV.
I couldn't seem to make sense of the battle that had just ended or that was what I thought at first.
Since the beginning of the battle, my mother and I had placed a good amount of our attention on the last son of the divine family and we were affirmative that he should have lost that battle.
An unexpected occurrence….a variable had occurred. What our family stands against the most. I could tell from my mother's apparent disgusted expression on her face that she wasn't satisfied with the end result.
"my daughter…"
She called out with her stern voice and I had no choice but to kneel on one foot. It's a sign of respect all mages bestow upon her when she uses that tone on us.
We are aware of what next she would say.
"Do not disappoint".
"....yes mother…" I said in agreement but I already had no intentions of losing to someone who only depends on unexpected circumstances to win a battle.
