The President looked at the Grand Elder as if he were looking at an idiot.
"Short-sighted!"
"You'll never accomplish anything great!"
"No wonder you lost so thoroughly!"
The Grand Elder reacted as if someone had stepped on his tail.
"What qualifications do you have to lecture me?"
"Your status as a Noble Family Scion? Or your Level 14 power, piled up through resources?"
He paused.
"Besides... who told you I'd lost?"

His robes billowed violently, moving without any wind!
In an instant, the pressure radiating from the Grand Elder was completely
