"What do you mean?" Liora frowned.
On the surface, the Sea of Nothingness's questions seemed simple, as though it were merely asking why she was stronger than it.
However, such an assumption would underestimate a Prince of the Demon World-level being. Even if it had been defeated and captured, it wouldn't react this way to a simple defeat. Nor would it repeatedly question her true identity.
Clearly, there was something else going on.
"I can feel that Nothingness is afraid of you! It's refusing to obey my orders!"
Seeing Liora's puzzled expression, the Sea of Nothingness spoke again.
"Otherwise, how could I have lost so miserably? Even if you're stronger than me and I've sustained injuries before, I should still have been able to escape!"
Liora ignored the boastful part of her opponent's speech, choosing to focus on the other half.
Indeed.
As she recalled her previous fight with the Sea of Nothingness, she realized that Nothingness was weaker than she had originally expected.
