Ciara Merlin POV
'....What ? What ? What ??'.
My emotions were in disarray each time I tried to make sense of the Battle that had just occurred.
I couldn't fathom it. The amount of uncertainty that occurred in just a few minutes.
It was impossible to expect this kind of result.
I wasn't the only one surprised by his fighting prowess. My mother seemed to be in a similar state to mine. Her expression was dark and I could make sight of her lips moving as if she were churning her teeth.
".....am I supposed to fight someone like this….?" I muttered even without realizing it when I heard a loud eerie sound followed by a long and sharp stinging pain.
My right hand slowly touched my left cheek that was now glowing red as I slowly looked towards my mother who still had her hand stretched out forward with teary eyes.
'It's been a while since mother hit me like that…..I see…i must have been doubting my abilities'
