The rivalry between Leonard and Victor hinted at a deeper, hidden story beneath the surface. At the moment, Victor was setting the tone online, and the public's outrage was heavily directed at Leonard. It was unclear when Leonard would strike back, but it seemed like his young uncle was intent on seizing victory, even as Victor basked in his temporary triumph.
Though Victor had essentially thrown Leonard to the wolves—leaving him to be ridiculed by fans and pundits alike—Leonard remained focused. Rather than retaliate immediately, he was preoccupied with finding a substitute for his team to ensure they wouldn’t lose their qualification. Leonard's self-restraint and long-term thinking stood in stark contrast to Victor's impulsiveness and vengeful nature. Despite the mounting pressure and verbal abuse, Leonard remained calm, prioritizing the team's survival over personal grudges.
