Whilst Hal had declared the winner of the fight between him and Valyr, Loreina and Faulus looked at the crater, then at each other for a bit before wryly smiling.
"It seems we've still underestimated Ylvar even after he had revealed the strength he had been hiding," said Loreina, prompting Faulus to nod in response as he recalled the faint hope he had that Valyr would be able to triumph over Hal in their fight.
"He's really hidden himself quite well, don't you think?" asked Faulus in response, to which Loreina nodded in agreement. "At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if he's still hiding a bit of his strength in his fight against Hal."
"I wouldn't be surprised either," replied Loreina, only to go silent for a bit as she pondered over the thought. "Though, if you think about it, with how Hal unleashed his Intent Seed towards Ylvar, the chances of the latter still having strength to spare is quite low."
