The match continued, but my focus wasn't entirely on it anymore.
Not because it wasn't interesting—on the contrary, it was playing out exactly as expected. Lilia had realized her mistake, figured out the interference, and was now seething at the obvious manipulation happening right in front of her. But what could she do? The battlefield had never belonged to her in the first place.
And Selene… Selene was enjoying it.
I knew that without even looking at her.
Still, I kept my gaze fixed on the match, my arms crossed loosely as I leaned against the pillar, observing the subtle shifts in the flow of the fight. But then—
"Do you think life is fair?"
The voice was smooth, lilting with casual amusement.
I didn't react.
Not immediately.
Because that was a stupid question.
Instead, I remained where I was, my gaze unmoving, uninterested. I wasn't obligated to answer something so blatantly baiting.
