60 - Another Sparring Match

I lasted longer than usual against Viktor... But I still lost in the end.

"You're improving fast."

He said as he walked toward me and helped me up, I was lying on the arena floor.

"Yeah, you better get ready... I'll catch up to you soon."

I replied as I took his hand and stood up.

"Ugh, shit..."

My left ribs hurt, I was hit earlier in my side. Though luckily, nothing seem broken.

Anyway, as I was massaging my side to ease the pain—

"You guys are awesome!"

Damian approached us and exclaimed that.

"Yeah, we know."

I told him as I patted my shirt clean.

"Haha, thanks."

Viktor followed, smiling smugly.

"I want to spar too!"

Then... Damian suddenly said that, looking at us with twinkling eyes.

"...?"

I tilted my head at him, Viktor did the same. We're looking at him weirdly.

"You want to spar with us?"

I asked. And Damian nodded his head violently, excitement in his eyes.
