What happened to Dante Pendragon was nothing difficult to comprehend. He lost the duel to Dwayne Aldaman.
Yet, the real question remained: how?
The mystery of his defeat loomed over the four who had witnessed the match. Not one of them could explain what transpired in those crucial moments.
One second, Dante was dominating with his quicksand technique, forcing Dwayne into a precarious position. The next, Dwayne miraculously escaped and appeared right beside him.
And that was when the confusion began.
From that point on, the scene became inexplicable. Dwayne stood motionless while Dante continued to move, battle steps guiding his form as if he were still locked in combat.
But who was he fighting?
What was he striking at?
Nobody knew. Nobody understood. Nobody could answer.
It wasn't just hazy and confusing, it was as if reality itself had become impossible to interpret. To give meaning to Dante's display.
