Determined not to let my previous defeat define me, I sat up in bed, my mind made up. The system had already shown me that it was possible to return to the simulation immediately after a defeat, and this time, I was going to ensure victory.
"System," I said aloud, addressing the ever-present entity, "I'm ready for another round. Take me back."
[Are you sure, host?] the system's voice responded. [You just returned. You need rest.]
"I need to win," I replied, my voice firm. "Take me back."
[Very well, host. Initiating simulation...]
The familiar sensation of being pulled into the simulation enveloped me, and the world around me faded to black. When I opened my eyes again, I was back in the arena. The air was thick with tension, and I could sense Malgath's presence before he even emerged from the shadows.
