High above the demonic stadium, Maya floated unsteadily in the air. Her breathing had become ragged, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.
Countless cuts and bruises covered her body, while Athena's relentless spatial attacks had torn her white clothing in several places. The confident smile she had worn earlier was gone. Only anger remained.
"Damn it..." Maya coughed blood into her hand. "I have already lost too much."
Her dark eyes flickered toward the glowing notifications only she could see.
[ Remaining Nexus Points: 40,500. ]
"I am not wasting any more Nexus Points on this fight." She clenched her remaining hand. "I need to get out of here."
Maya's cold gaze settled on Athena. The woman remained suspended in the sky, surrounded by faint blue spatial rifts. Her golden hair moved in the wind, while her veil concealed her expression. But Maya could feel it. Athena had no intention of letting her escape.
'That fucking bitch isn't letting me go.'
