As Jash had anticipated, the protagonist, or Helios Auris, was behaving differently from the novel, in fact, way too different.
'Just how did I lose...? I was supposed to be stronger...'
(Host...)
The system did not have emotions but it could sense his, and wanted to console him, feeling the profound sadness within.
Unable to accept his loss, Helios was reluctantly consoled by Caeron, despite his frustration with the latter.
In the end, he just asked for some alone time, "Vivia, can you do me a favor and tell them I wish to be alone?"
He didn't even wait for her to agree and entered his room, locking the door.
Vivia stood there dumbfounded for a few seconds before leaving, trying to justify his actions as she had seen just how much he trained for becoming the Year Representative.
"Just what went wrong?" Helios yelled from frustration building within him due to his failure, it was a major failure.
"How?!"
