I'm the Beast Bride

My friend's hug greeted me afterwards. I was happy to win, but she seemed even happier than me.

"Maxxpain, Claud, congrats to the both of you."

Some of our classmates also approached us, and greeted me and Claud. I just smiled at those who greeted us because I didn't know the names of the others while Claud didn't even look at them. I let out a deep sigh.

Kennedy approached us next. I didn't scold him anymore because he seemed to be doing well again.

He walked straight to my direction and slightly smiled at me. "Congratulations, Maxxpain. You win."

"We win. We both win. Of course, I didn't lose to every battle."

I looked in the direction of Claud who suddenly spoke and my two eyebrows met in astonishment.

"What do you mean by battle? We just played a game."

My two eyebrows still met and I followed the look in Claud's eyes, who was looking in Kennedy's direction. Is he looking for a fight with Kennedy?
