'A bonus multiplier of 5... Does it really apply to our Mana or we have an artificial Mana during the match...' I'm probably thinking too much... And I don't really feel like watching the match... 'Let's visit Leo hehe...' I though with a smile, After all, it's been since I arrived in Spade that I didn't give him news...
"Spatial Magic." Still, Yami's driver's magic is really handy. After going through the portal that opened, I was transported to Leo's room and saw him sitting on the bed and... crying?
"Leo? What's wrong?" I never knew how to react to someone crying except when it was Yuno where I was happy... But seeing Leo crying, for some strange reason, it hurt... Could it be compassion?

"Can I come? I just want to spend more time with you..." In his eyes, there was desperation and hope... Did he want to stay with me that badly? Notice, I would do anything to stay with him.
"You know, you're just going to see me win, it's not very interesting." I said laughing and opening a gate. He smiled, took my hand and walked through the portal with me. Strangely, I feel much stronger...
