The End of another Spar

"I won!"

Like a child who had just won a match, Moxi had his arms raised widely as he shouted with excitement.

"Uff..."

Rin glared at Moxi's handsome face and felt annoyed.

'I should have focused more on the last attack.'

Rin thought to herself as she had closed her eyes before her sword could hit Moxi just because she was too sure that her sword slash was definitely a hit.

While Rin was going over her biggest mistake, Moxi approached her and patted her shoulder.

He stared right into Rin's eyes and Rin could only look back at him with a fool's gaze.

'What is he doing?'

She wondered but there was no answer to her question except the silence which followed the long-lasting stare of Moxi.

"Don't beat yourself over it."

"Wha-"

"Oh, I am sorry for being so strong."

Moxi continued without letting Rin take a turn. 

"Grrr~"
