After the treaty was signed, both Heitensen and Christine left with dark faces, while the expression of the benefitting Sif was somewhat wistful.
She looked down at the floor, somewhat dejectedly asking:
"Are you afraid I'll lose?"
If Roland was worried about her safety, it wasn't unacceptable.
But she truly was confident; if she couldn't handle Christine, how could she compete with Sofia?
She needed this opportunity to gain experience, why miss it?
"I believe you will win; I have absolute confidence in you, but can you guarantee you won't get hurt?"
Roland said calmly.
Sif fell silent.
There was no need to be stubborn in front of Roland. She certainly could win, but Christine was a talent heavily nurtured by the Divine Court of Light, she surely had the ability to fight.
If Christine went berserk and refused to concede, the end result could very well be a death and an injury.
Killing the Saintess of the Divine Court of Light would spark a major feud.
