After the eliminated group had left the stage, the remaining twelve contestants were shown, and Gerard then bid her farewell in the audience for the time being.
With the music playing and the contestants singing along, the first live stage of Voice Arena was over.
Aerine and the others left the stage together and hugged for a bit.
Divine winked at her. "You're so good, Aerine. But..." She paused, giving a competitive look. "I'll face you head-on next time."
There wasn't any threat in her voice, and it was filled with a friendly, competitive spirit. This time they were in a group, but they might be opponents next time.
Aerine smiled, and her competitive spirit was also ignited. "Sure... Let's do our best, Divine."
At this stage, Aerine was glad to have met new friends. While it was a competition, she knew that being friends outside of it in the future was a possibility.
