The moment he uttered those words, all the effects that had been plaguing him vanished. He could breathe again, and instead of Celestara, he once again found himself in the makeshift arena Gaia had made.
Yet with everything going back to normal, there also came a slight problem.
He lost.
That meant he wouldn't get the lesson from Evelyn, and not only that, it would count as a single loss among all the fights he had.
But of course, if he was being real with himself, then he had already lost three battles.
One against Zarkul, another against Minos, and now, a legit fight against Evelyn.
But despite that, Evelyn's expression remained calm as she didn't say a word. Instead, she nodded in Gaia's direction.
Immediately, a chair appeared right behind her, made of lustrous leaves. She sat down and crossed her legs, but not before pointing beside him where another chair made of leaves appeared.
"Sit down, Rael," Evelyn said calmly.
