"Lady Astaria, we are here."

Keeve and Reeve bowed their heads as they walked into Astaria's room.

Astaria glanced at the two of them and questioned,

"How are you people feeling?"

"We are fine, Lady Astaria."

Keeve replied, however, he didn't dare to look into Astaria's eyes as he answered.

He was embarrassed. Not only he, Reeve, Wysten, and the rest of the members of the Shadow Unit, all of them were embarrassed as well.

It has already been 3 days since they were defeated, however, the memories of it were still fresh in their minds.

And Astaria seemed to know about this.

"I shouldn't have chosen you people to test that man huh."

She commented, then, she sighed,

"Haahh… I made a mistake. I didn't know that boy was so strong. I should have chosen someone else…"

Hearing those words, Keeve felt a strange pain in his heart, he couldn't hold back anymore and spoke,

"It was not your fault, Lady Astaria, we were just too weak to fight against him. We didn't train properly and got too conceited thinking we were the strongest Unit in the world when in truth, we were actually nothing."

Reeve nodded as well,

"Yes, we should have trained harder, maybe then we wouldn't have lost this shamefully."

Astaria glanced at the two of them and questioned,

"Are you doing it now? The training I mean. Are you working on getting better, or are those just baseless words you are using to make yourself feel better?"

"…"

"…"

Keeve and Reeve turned silent.

"You people weren't just sitting around, depressed that you lost for the last 3 days, were you?" Astaria questioned.

Keeve and Reeve tried to avoid eye contact.
