"Mom, it hurts," Shasha said as she tried to break free from Alessia's hug, who had come rushing to the infirmary right after the duel ended.
"You did something very reckless, Shasha," Alessia replied, She then reluctantly pulled back to give her daughter some breathing space. "If you allowed me to help you then you would have won that match."
"I don't want to cheat," Shasha stated.
"That's not cheating," Alessia tried to use reason.
"It's cheating," Shasha insisted.
"Okay fine, it's cheating," Alessia, who saw how stubborn her daughter was becoming, decided to take a step back and nod her head.
Indeed, Shasha had lost her match against Char.
If they had fought the normal way then she might have had a chance of winning.
But, Char challenged her to end the battle in a single move, which put Shasha at a great disadvantage.
Even so, she decided to accept the challenge nevertheless.
