((Josiah didn't hear Sally speaking. He heard about it from the people she attacked. Which is why he came out here in the first place.))
Josiah faced her fearlessly. "This isn't the real Orca so I can't undo what you just did, but I can still try and make you. For all that you think you know, you don't understand me at all. What do you expect me to do? Give up, say you're too strong, and let you do what you want to this place, to Virgo, and to my Orca? What would be the point in that? I've fought many opponenets that have been stronger than me. I've beaten some of them but I've lost as well. Losing itself doesn't bother me. If I lose then I'll just train harder and do my best the next time. No one wins every battle but that's no reason not to try, if you give up halfway through you learn nothing. I don't care if I lose when it's only my pride at stake, I'm not so insecure that it'd bother me. If this was just a simple duel then maybe I would have put it to a stop by now, said that you're too strong, and offered to fight you again when I grew stronger. But when lives are at stake, especially the lives of those I care about, I won't give up and I won't stop fighting. I'll do everything I can to save them." As Josiah spoke his was eveloped in a glow of golden light, having silently used Favor of the Gods. "I'm not "great", I'm just a ordinary gamer from another world who did what he had to do to stay alive and help his friends. But, to answer your question, yes I feel very lucky."

Unable to sense anything useful, Virgo began letting her magic power build. She had an idea. It was a long shot, but she had to give it a try.
