Erik Versus Nathaniel (1)

After thinking about the incoming match for a long time, Erik stopped being delusional about his win. He clearly accepted that victory against Nathaniel was impossible at his current strength. That if he couldn't use all his powers.

However, the fact that his friends didn't have a shred of confidence in him greatly upset the young man. That made Erik think, was it better to have friends that tried to cheer him up and believed in him regardless of the situation or friends who told him the truth regardless of how bad it was?

The young man was still too much socially inexperienced to understand or simply decide what he liked more. However, he was slightly disappointed by Amber, Floyd, and Gwen.

"Erik, do remember this, Nathaniel has the weird habit of toying with his opponents," said Floyd as they sat together in front of the ring. "He's always doing something unnecessarily violent and only cares about winning. Be careful out there because he will probably try to make you suffer!"
