THREE-WAY RACE (3)

[Pinnacle Academy, Stadium 1 - Arena A: Student Hallways...]

Where did she vanish to? I'd only turned my back for a moment...one moment...

Normally, finding Valencia would be easy, But because of how hard I struggled to sense energy or mana I needed at least a trace of Valencia's mana.

But I couldn't even tell the difference between a regular student and a cat...

shit...

I cursed under my breath.

Damn this tournament, and damn whatever serum they pumped me full of.

It wasn't just my normal abilities dulled but the fatigue was crushing, making each step feel like hauling dead weight uphill.

But no, instead, I was reduced to this…this human snail's pace.

haah...

Whatever, I just know that the game Morwen was playing, was dangerous, and Valencia was out there, alone.

If Morwen reached her first… Then parts of the story will most definitely be distorted
