Last Laugh is Mine

Hours had passed, and slowly Master Sarawat overpowered me, and I was the first one to lose because of fatigue. The battle lasted for hours. And everything that I have worked upon the past years seemed to be nothing. Master Sarawat was still full of energy and continued to pound me with kicks and punches in the body. 

The only thing I could do was defend and hope for him to get exhausted. 

"What happened to your confidence earlier, Nicholas? How could you wish to protect them when this is everything you could show me?" Master Sarawat mocked me and my abilities, but somehow it was the truth. "Just because you have more experience than most of my disciples. That doesn't mean you can win against my experience," Master Sarawat added as he continued to mock me.
