When Togami and Reina were eliminated from the mock battle, they returned to Shiori and Kanae’s side. Both were unsatisfied with their personal performances, and Reina’s face in particular said as much.

“Guess I was too naive,” she sighed. “I counted too much on my equipment to get me through.”

Reina didn’t think relying on her gear was a bad thing in itself: the better one’s accoutrement, the stronger one would be in combat. To her, using gear that boosted her combat power far beyond its normal level wasn’t cheap or unfair—hunters had to do whatever they could to survive. Still, she had to draw a clear line between her native strength and the capabilities offered by her equipment. The results of the mock battle disappointed her because they proved she’d severely misjudged where that line lay.

Thanks to the powerful gear Shiori had procured for her, Reina had finally been able to meet her own high combat standards during the events in Iida. But as time had gone on, she’d unconsciously begun to conflate what her suit had to offer with her own competency. So she’d assumed she would fare better during this test, even though her outfit was on loan from Kiryou and much less capable than her usual one.

In short, she’d been too conceited and had ended up offering a lackluster performance and amateurish actions throughout the mock battle.

Realizing how full of herself she’d been before the battle started, Reina sighed a heavier sigh than usual. Still, she couldn’t dwell on this outcome forever, so she tried to put it out of her mind.

“Well, at least now my eyes have been opened. I’ll just put this down as a learning experience and move on.” The more shortcomings and weak points she discovered about herself, the more she’d know what she needed to improve. By looking at the event from a positive angle, she prevented herself from feeling down in the dumps over her failure like she would have in the past.

Reina’s constructive outlook got a passing grade from Kanae. “Way to go, missy! Not only did you avoid making excuses like ‘I was just off my game’ or ‘I could’ve done a lot better,’ you turned this into an opportunity to improve. You really have grown up a little! Congratulations!”

“Yeah, yeah, thanks,” Reina replied dismissively, detecting the teasing tone in Kanae’s compliment. But in truth, Reina felt quite happy to hear praise from her. Unlike Shiori, who often complimented Reina, Kanae rarely approved of the girl’s performance and would always nitpick her faults. So Reina felt rather accomplished to hear her utter an actual compliment.

Sensing Reina’s feelings, Shiori spoke up. “Miss Reina, I’m sure you must feel dissatisfied and unhappy at the results of the battle. But you did more than enough to satisfy Kanae and me. It’s certainly important to avoid complacency and to continue striving for greater heights, but being too hard on yourself will adversely affect your growth. Take a little more pride in your accomplishments.”

“Well, I understand that, but I can’t help but think I could’ve done better,” the girl said.
