Robert was excited to play the new game. In the past, he had thought games were mere distractions from the path of learning, and he could not be entertained by them.
That was his misconception. Ever since he played Territory War with Lucen, he found that games were not only entertaining, they were stimulating.
No matter what it was, the things Lucen creates were sure to be great. He had already learned the rules of the game, and this time, he would achieve victory against Lucen once he defeated Mireya.

Similar to Robert, Mireya was excited to play the new game. She had waited for years for Lucen to create a new game; she even put in a lot of effort to finish his request so that he would create this new game for her.
She was not going to allow Robert to take her victory; she would crush him, and then she would defeat Lucen as well.
Mireya's lavender eyes were calm, but beneath that calmness was a quiet flame.
