Treacherous Situation

Animal Kingdom, Land of the Cats.

"Aaaaaaaargh!"

A loud scream echoed throughout a building.

The workers inside jumped in surprise and looked over to the corner room, which had its door tightly closed. Their cat whiskers twitched in curiosity.

At that moment, a person left that room. He was a short, curly-haired young cat boy, and he looked heartbroken as if he had lost something valuable.

"Young Lynx, is something wrong?"

An elderly cat asked.

"N-nothing, I-I must return home…"

Lynx avoided their eyes and left the branch location of Infinite Dojo.

To him, the color of the sun, the bright-colored streets, and the beautiful blue sky looked way grayer than what they used to be.

Small tears dropped from his eyes.

'How could I lose to a human? Such embarrassment. If anyone finds out… no, how could they know? Those matches are private, after all!'
