1031 The Absolute One

Frustration coursed through Edward's heart.

His awe and affection slowly morphed into a strong desire to win.

Desperation clutched his heart tightly, and his bloodshot eyes clearly depicted his disbelief at his own loss.

Something like this shouldn't even be happening!

"Aries, do something! Help me!" Edward shouted, his powerful voice making the space around him quake.

~I am sorry, Edward. But with the current disconnect we have, I won't be able to aid you any longer...~

Those words shattered Edward's heart, and the crouching despair that once slowly enveloped him began to consume his very being.

'N-no...' He whispered in his thoughts. '... I can't lose now.'

Not yet! He hadn't gone all-out yet!

Yes... What else hadn't he done yet? There had to be something he had yet to try.

"No matter what you do, I will win." Jared's voice annoyingly rang in his ears, and his muscles trembled the more he heard his taunts.

'I... I am not weak. Not anymore! NOT ANYMORE!!!'
