chapter 732 for the sake of a wish [part 3]
alessia's cry of alarm made rhia, who was watching the battle of her sister, start to tear up.
a moment later, the little girl started crying.
"wuwuwuwu!" rhia's face was covered with tears because her sister was hurt.
she was still too young to understand what was happening, and seeing her kind and caring sister getting hurt in front of her made her cry.
remi immediately hugged her and assured her that everything was fine. just like rhia, she looked up to her sister and treated her as an idol.
she believed that shasha would not lose easily, especially after the training that she received from their brother, zion.
back at the colosseum, char, who had just managed to stab her opponent's waist with her sword, frowned.
although her attack landed, she felt that something didn't feel right.
as if sensing something from her right side, the young lady immediately jumped to her right, just in time to see the blade of a rapier strike past her.
time seemed to slow down as char gazed at shasha, who was looking back at her calmly.
the two girls stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity before time returned to normal, with shasha moving past char, who had evaded her sneak attack.
but before the young lady from the lotte family could breathe easily, her sixth sense warned her that something was coming from behind herâa threat she couldn't ignore.
with only a few seconds to react, char jumped to her left side and rolled on the ground.
suddenly, a five-meter-long fissure appeared in the place where she stood earlier.
when the young lady was finally able to regain her composure, she noticed that there were eight opponents around her.
"clones!" char hissed because this was one of shasha's special abilities.
she was aware of shasha's abilities, but what she knew, the latter could only use them during the night.
it was then that she noticed a full moon hovering above the arena, making her cry out in disbelief.
one of shasha's obvious weaknesses was that her fighting prowess decreased drastically during the day.
however, the dance of the moonlight had an advanced skill called moonlight cradle.
this skill was special because it actually creates a domain of night in a certain location for five whole minutes.
obviously, this was one of shasha's trump cards, allowing her to use the full powers of her dance of the moonlight during the day for a limited period of time.
between the two of them, shasha looked more like the loser due to her injuries.
"it is," shasha replied.
after that, she lowered her rapier and sheathed it back to her scabbard.
it was then that they heard thirteen's words, declaring the victor of the match. "winner, shasha!"
as soon as those words were spoken, the medical team of the leventis family hurried to the arena and immediately performed first aid to the young lady, who looked beaten and battered.
even so, she had a proud smile on her face as she looked at her brother, making thirteen smile bitterly in her direction.
seeing shasha get hurt was not a sight he liked to see. but, he would rather see her hurt than dead.
suddenly, he heard something land beside him, making pica and pico, who were perched on his shoulder, look at the young lady, who was in the arena moments before.
"it's your win," char said. "now, what is your wish?"
"i'll tell you later," thirteen replied. "but there is something you have to know."
the teenage boy then moved in closer to whisper something in char's ear, making the latter's eyes widen in shock.
she couldn't help but look back at him and see whether he was just pranking her or not.
"i'm serious," thirteen said as if knowing what she was thinking about.
char hesitated for a bit before giving him a serious gaze.
"i'll know whether you are serious or not tomorrow," char replied. "until then, i won't expect anything."
after saying those words, the young lady left, making the audience wonder what the two of them were talking about.
the teenage boy then asked pica and pico to temporarily take over hosting the event, then left the stage to check on shasha.
the two pocopocos had already hosted the event once, so they already knew what to do. a few minutes later, thirteen arrived at the infirmary and looked at his sister, who was being cared for by the ladies who specialized in healing.
although she wasn't covered entirely in bandages, nearly half of her body was, making thirteen feel sorry for his sister.
however, the moment she saw her brother, shasha beamed and asked thirteen if she did well in her match.
"you did well," thirteen replied. "try not to hurt yourself too much next time, okay?"
"okay." shasha nodded.
the two of them talked for a few more minutes before thirteen returned to the arena to continue hosting the event.
there was one more day before he made his big announcement, and he was certain that the moment he did that, the league of dragons and phoenixes would never be the same again.
