Being so exhausted, Anna took him to his room to rest.
He slept through the night.
The next day looked like it would be a long day for him. His muscles still ached, but nothing exaggerated.
So he started his day in the Combat Arena on the wrong foot.
He lost the first three bouts, out of 15 for the day. That brought him to 60 points, and with 8 wins and 5 losses, he is a total disgrace.
The problem was that they were putting him against some powerful people. With so many restrictions, it was complicated.
Besides, they had more experience than he did in these arena fights; they knew how to take advantage of those advantages well.
But with determination, he won the fourth bout and then the fifth. Both gave him 15 points each, so he was back at 90 points.
In the sixth bout, he faced the person who had defeated him yesterday, the person he had underestimated. And this time he had a really tough fight.
