169 Team Battle (Part 2)

Actually, Braiden was not too injured from the earlier attack. He was just caught off-guard and forced outside the stage boundaries. After his uncle helped heal him a little, he woke up right away. Wiping the blood away from his face, he looked towards the stage with a grave expression. Slamming his fist into the ground, Braiden's normally smiling face turned ugly. As far as princes go, he was not the type to really pay attention to keeping face and acting above the rest, but getting eliminated first was truly too humiliating. He could not help but feel guilty towards his teammates still fighting. All he managed to do was injure Keaton. 

"Don't think too much. You should believe that they will still be able to follow through. Who knows if that injury will become a major point later? You have to know that they do not have a healer, so he will have to keep participating with an open wound." The Duke's cold voice sounded by Braiden's ear.
