Lillian let out a groan as she walked through the streets of the Bazaar. They had just exited the Virtual Reality pod after she had failed to last even 5 minutes against the Assassin.
She gave a sigh, "I don't think I'm making any progress at all..." This thought was more evident by the fact that the Assassin hadn't even used her element in their fight.
Marionette, who was walking along beside her, patted her shoulder. She then said bluntly:
"Because you're not."
"Urgh..."
Lillian flinched at her cold words — her head drooping.
"You don't gotta be that harsh about it..."
Marionette's eyes softened, raising her hand and patting the back of her head.
"Don't worry, Lillian. How about I rephrase, then?"
"Hm?"
"You're not making any noticeable progress... When it comes to beating me." Marionette then tilted her head, "How about that? Did that make you feel any better?"
