When They Beg, I Rise!

Lemira's move was devastating.

She took out two opponents in one fell swoop and left another seriously injured. After landing, her gaze briefly met the bloody aftermath on the ground where Alaric lay defeated.

Alaric, fixated on the screen, was engulfed by a wave of shock and disbelief. He knew Lemira was talented, but he had no idea she was this formidable!

But wait, Lemira hadn't always been this strong. When had she powered up?

From the moment he was captured, Alaric had resigned himself to defeat. But then Lemira swooped in, her agility and keen sense of play stabilizing the team and even turning the tide with King's move - a twelve-hit combo!

Alaric realized he might never have truly known his sister. Lemira had become a stranger to him, igniting a fear of losing her that he couldn't quite explain.

He hesitated before speaking, "You..."

But Lemira had already moved on, speaking over the headset, "Report the rest's location and status, I'll be right there."

Alaric was left on the spot, looking at merely a game character's cool retreating figure. Suddenly, he turned to cast a glance at Lemira who kept
