"What is it? You look down."

Riona questioned as she saw Amaya walking into her room.

"I barely won my battle today," Amaya replied with a downcast expression on her face.

"..."

Riona stared at Amaya with a deadpan look on her face.

"You defeated your opponent within 2 minutes, Amaya."

"I was forced to use Devouring Mist."

"And? It is the ability you were born with, why would you not use it?" Riona questioned, Amaya, however, shook her head,

"The opponents we are currently facing are average Semi Saints, we, on the other hand, are peak Semi Saints, it is a battle that shouldn't be very difficult for us in the first place, but I was forced to use my trump card.

We still haven't faced their Elites yet, I believe it is a weakness those Top Clans might take advantage of."

Hearing those words, Riona started thinking. She could understand what Amaya was talking about, this could be seen as a weakness of a sort, however,

"You do not have to be so hard on yourself, Amaya."

Saying those words, Riona held Amaya's hand and gestured her to sit beside her on the bed. Then, looking into her daughter's eyes, she spoke,

"You became a Complete Semi Saint in just 150 years, Amaya. That alone is enough to show the entire world how strong you are. I already know you are comparing yourself with Astaria, Aisha, and the others, but there is no need for you do to so. You have your own role here."

Riona's tone was gentle, full of endless love.

Amaya, however, just frowned,

"What are you talking about, mother?"

"Huh?"

"Of course, I have my own role. There is no way I would compare myself to a Succubus who has a ridiculously strong Bloodline or a Battle Maniac who cannot think of anything but fighting. There is simply no comparison between me and them." Amaya shrugged.

"..."

Riona, on the other hand, didn't know what to say.

"What I am worried about is that we might need Nux to act if our opponents play their moves correctly and that would mean Nux would win the bet,"

"The bet?" Riona frowned.

"That is correct."

"So you were worried about a bet?"

"Of course." Amaya nodded.

"..."

Riona's mouth twitched. Then, however, she just shook her head and,

"Talking with geniuses really is exhausting huh... It is as if the two of us live in different worlds.

We are mother and daughter, how can the difference between our talent be this vast?"

Riona couldn't understand.
