Subject: To those who waited.
First of all, I want to sincerely apologize to everyone who placed their hopes, expectations, and excitement into watching my final match.
Due to personal reasons concerning my family, I was unable to participate. That's all I can say at this point.
I want to extend my congratulations to Qi Mistress for her win. From what I've seen in her battles, she's a worthy champion.
It's a pity we didn't cross paths this time. But there will be a "next time." I'll make sure of it.
P.S.
