Leander hadn't quite expected the damage to hurt so much. Through his pained grimace and his strong breathing to try to control the pain, though, he grinned. The experience he just went through was too unbelievably amazing to [i]not[/i] grin at. Leander tried to get back on his feet, but the pain forced him back down onto his knees. Leander did perk up when a conversation sparked between Vincent and the mysterious lady, making him raise his head to look at the two of them. Leander had no experience in Xyz Summoning, but he was also curious about Rank-Up Xyz Summoning. After all, with such a powerful monster that had attacked him, how could he [i]not[/i] be interested?

Unfortunately, it didn't seem like the lady was willing to divulge her secrets on the matter. Disappointed, Leander was about to drop his head back down when the lady began to talk about the two of them. Leander was a bit confused about everything, but he did understand enough to catch the parts about others with powers like her, and how she expressed Leander's good and bad points about him and his style of Dueling. It seemed like the conversation was drawing to a close, though, so Leander had to ask a question.

"[color=fff79a]Who are you?[/color]" Leander asked. Leander knew that the question probably wouldn't be answered, but it couldn't hurt to try.
