Chapter 81: Names, Part Ten

"Well done," the administrator praised Lianna as their opponents faded away, extracted from the simulation. 

Lianna heard a couple of loud beeps, sounding off throughout the virtual space, like notifications on her phone she couldn't turn off. 

[Uh, was that an announcement or something? Probably the names of the people we just beat. Wish we could see it.] 

Looking through Enverna's perspective again, Lianna found that the camera was focused on someplace else as a fight was breaking out elsewhere. 

Zura and her partner were engaging a duo themselves. 

[Well, I sure hope she loses.] 

Lianna turned toward her partner who looked strangely relieved. 

"We did it," she said with a proud smile. 

"Indeed," the administrator responded. "Don't lose sight of your goal, though. One victory is nothing. I won't have my partner getting anything less than the gold medal." 

"Right. Well, I'm ready."
