"Do you think I might lose even if Luthar uses Forbidden Magic?" Nolan asked.
"If you hold back, then you might struggle," Lyra replied. "But if you use fifty percent of your full strength to fight alone, stop time, and slash him down while making the crowd go wild, then you won't struggle."
Just then, the door opened.
"Master!" Celia exclaimed, a bright smile lighting her face as she stepped in.
"Hey! What are you doing here, Lyra? How dare you enter my room?" Celia added, frowning.
Lyra smirked. "Can't say the same for you. You didn't even bother to knock before coming in."
"Wait, wait. Please, there's no need to argue," Nolan said, raising his hands.
"Master, you were so cool! When you talked to Miss Cynthia," Celia said, excitement shining in her eyes.
"Really?" Nolanasked.
"Yes! You were amazing," Celia repeated, nodding enthusiastically.
"Master, I want to get stronger. If I keep increasing my mana, do you think I can improve?" Celia asked.
