Although the words Laura said hit the nail on the head, it wasn't the reason for Anlor's depression. No, the reason he was depressed by the defeat was due to him losing to someone who wasn't as famous as he.
How much of a promotion did that battle give Anlor?
With the rancor in his heart completely gone, Anlor walked out of the shadow of his loss.

Although all things have been said and done, Laura felt troubled. She didn't expect for this matter to have blown up into something so big. Anlor was her main vanguard; with him being beaten so soundly, how could she feel anything but worry?
There was also Sharmie, that crazy girl who kept on pestering her. It was as if Anlor's loss amounted to her victory. Simply preposterous.
