wow as much as I wanted lucas to win this is better as it would be BS if he can somehow win in his situation also mr author no need to remove the student cheering part don't let any negativity stop you from writing the story you want to write
i think the cheering is necessary to give the audience a sense of liveliness so i hope you don't cut it, and them not talking is kinda weird seeing a weak student not giving up in the face of absolute power.
You seem to steer clear of tacky stuff
Good keep going
.
By the way
Dear author, if you don't mind when Lucas's bloodline evolves, let his hair change to silver
