Chapter 215 < Psychic Wars - Clash of the Gods (4) >
However, Dohyun didn’t pay much attention to Je-hyun’s added words.
He was too busy savoring the victory of the first fight.
It was truly a narrow margin.
If he had been just a little slower to reach out his hand, or if Je-hyun had thrust in more sharply.
Then he would have been the one to lose.
But, precisely because of that.
‘I won.’
Dohyun clenched his fist tightly.
So tightly that his fingers turned white.
It was as if he couldn’t control his excitement otherwise.
To the point where he might unconsciously burst into cheers.
Until now, he had never felt such an intense thrill from his victories.
His victories had been so natural.
Since he had never felt the sense of crisis that he might lose in the first place, he had not experienced the joy of victory either.
But now it was different.
‘I could have lost by a hair’s breadth.’
A victory earned after a fight where he truly gave it his all!
A precious victory gained in a situation where he could have lost with a slight mistake.
And that too, in a fight against an ‘equal’ opponent he met for the first time.
Dohyun tasted the joy of victory for the first time.
The right that only a true victor can enjoy.
On the other hand.
‘I lost for the first time.’
Je-hyun, who had died and resurrected due to the hole in his chest, gave a bitter smile.
He had never lost even once during his amateur days, before becoming a professional.
There was no need to mention his three years as a professional.
