And then Luke really did blow me away. As an unprecedented prodigy, he was an incredible opponent at the best of times, so how was I supposed to fight him with half of my normal power? It was no contest whatsoever; I was swept clean off my feet. If I was training to get better at running away and enduring attacks from a much high-level opponent, then I could see how this was a pretty effective method. Even though I couldn’t do anything at all initially, over time, I would start to get a feel for how I should respond.

There was one problem, though: I couldn’t get over the aggravating feeling of losing to Luke. I got so irritated that at the end of the session, I made him wear the bracelet so that I could give him a thrashing in return. That made me feel much better.

“How about that, huh?” I gloated afterward. “Witness my true power! Bwa ha ha!”

“You really don’t let up, do you?”

“Well, I was angry! How would you like losing so many times in a row?”

“And I told you, you’re not really losing. You’re just competing with a handicap.”

“I mean, sure, but when it’s you, I guess I just can’t bear to lose.”

“When it’s...me?” Luke fell silent for a moment, before speaking up again. “Well, in that case, maybe I don’t mind.”

Huh? You don’t “mind” getting beaten up like that? This isn’t, like, your thing, is it? I-I don’t know how to respond to this revelation!

Then again, we all have our preferences. As his friend, I was prepared to accept Luke for who he was.

Anyway, we continued our special training sessions for the tournament over the following days. When we spent time together working toward a shared goal like this, I was reminded of when we were students.
