After making a new friend, I checked on the other arenas for 'Alessia' and 'Anastasia'. Although I did not see their fight, from looking at their composed behaviour, I deduced that they didn't suffer much adversity.
Now, only a thousand participants were remaining from the initial few hundred thousand. Suddenly, the arena floor shook once again as they merged together to return to the original size.
Alessia and Anastasia also joined me and excitedly shared their experience.
"Little brother, did you see my fight? Ehehehe, I easily pushed them out of the arena with my fireballs."
"You have become too strong for others, dear sister. You should try to be gentler with them."
I praised my clingy sister, and as expected, she clung to my arm while tittering.
"You should also praise Anais…Tasia! She also was very awesome."
