On the round table, inside the luxurious room, there were six people sitting on the prepared seats.
There were seven seats, yet only six people came.
However, none of those people seemed to be unperturbed by the missing attendant and continued their discussion as if nothing had happened.
Those six people were members of the Reign Conference, the organization created to achieve the Absolute Duo.
"An alliance?" Sakuya opened her mouth, looking at the elderly man who seemed confident in his proposal, but inwardly, she disdained him since this guy was nothing but a failure, especially when all of his soldiers could be defeated by Tsukasa alone.
"Doesn't that sound ideal?" The elderly man was the leader of the Libers, and the creator of the Unit, Edward Walker. Without a doubt, he was an enemy, yet he wanted Sakuya to make an alliance with him.
"You surprised me."
"Tres Bien. To think that another member of Rein would want us to join forces."
Edward didn't care much about the attention brought by his words. Instead, he had been watching Sakuya without looking away. "You are already aware of the power on my Unit. If we were to unite that with the Exceed, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that we could accomplish just about anything. What do you say, Miss Sakuya?"
Everyone was looking at Sakuya, waiting for her response.
"No, thank you," Sakuya said immediately and without hesitation.
"!!!" Edward was surprised, but the rest showed different and various emotions on Sakuya's answer.
"What I desire and what you desire will lead us down very different paths. Naturally, wouldn't those paths end in a different place, as well? Therefore, joining forces would be an act of sheer stupidity," Sakuya answered calmly.
"The soul's power, eh?" Edward didn't seem disappointed and only laughed. "You take the impurity of everyday life and refer to it as training. This old man finds that a little too tedious."
Sakuya let out a sigh and said, "I still want to act politely since you're around my grandfather's age, but do you know how useless your Unit is? Have you seen if any of my students are troubled by your Units? No. You can see how useless they are that I can copy them easily. However, they're so useless that I don't need to do it since it is just a waste of money. Do you understand now? You lost once to my grandfather and were kicked out of the organization. Isn't that right, Equipment Smith-sama?"
*Crack!*
The cup that was held by Edward was destroyed, and he stood up, gritting his teeth, showing his anger. However, he knew he could play by Sakuya's hand if he dared to make a move on her, and he could feel Mikuni, who was her bodyguard, would kill him anytime when he started to move, so he calmed himself and sat down again.
The other people inside this room only watched this scene with amusement, and neither seemed to be interested in joining the argument between the two.
However, Sakuya's words made their expression serious since they realized Sakuya had mastered the technology to create the Units. Therefore, whether Edward was there or not, it didn't really matter since she could create it anytime.
Still, Sakuya thought of it as unnecessary, so she didn't plan to create it.
However, there was one question that they wanted to ask.
Who was the one who could create the Unit among Sakuya's people?
They didn't know, and this made them quite restless somehow.
Tsukasa and Sakuya had always been careful at maintaining Tsukasa's information. Even now, only the people above could only see his information, and the people below were clueless. They only knew that his Blaze was an exception, but no one knew the exact details.
However, even if his information was hidden, many people still knew him since his appearance was the most handsome and beautiful man in the world.
Still, this wasn't the time to discuss Tsukasa since everyone in the room was preoccupied with the thought of what was going to happen after this since they knew, without a doubt, Sakuya and Edward were going to start their first direct confrontation.
"It seems you wish to fulfill those past aspirations of yours. I have no interest in the ramblings of a pathetic old man."

Edward started to laugh after he calmed himself.
"What's wrong? Do you need me to call you a doctor?" Sakuya asked worriedly.
"......."
Edward's lips twitched, and he became even angrier when the rest of the people inside this room started to laugh at Sakuya's joke. He kept gritting his teeth and said, "Those are some harsh words."
"No, it's just the truth. Your Unit is useless, and there's no need for us to have a discussion."
"Don't be arrogant, you little girl?!" Edward roared, but he quickly shut his mouth when he felt a sharp thing on his neck.
"Calm down, Mikuni. You should show some respect to an elderly who has been working hard until now to fight my grandfather, right?" Sakuya said with a smile.
Mikuni only nodded, ignoring the gaze of everyone on him before he quickly walked out.
However, everyone in this place had a cold sweat since they didn't even feel Mikuni's presence!
In other words, if Mikuni wanted to, he could kill everyone here!
The expression of everyone started to tense before quickly calming down since they weren't weak enough to be defeated by Mikuni!
Where did their confidence come from?
Just because they could be chosen as members of the Reign Conference, it gave them confidence, and if Sakuya didn't want to become enemies with various organizations in this world, she shouldn't do anything.
"A witch's words are poisonous... even her magic is also dangerous. However, I won't just sit back and let you insult me like this."
Sakuya didn't say anything and just waited for what this old man wanted to say.
"Shall we settle this with a game, Miss Sakuya?" Edward took out his pocket watch to check the time.
"A game?"
"It's simple. My Libers will attack your academy, and your Exceed will fend them off. Whoever wipes out the other side is declared the winner. In other words, a killing game," Edward said confidently, causing many to show various expressions, but most of them showed a sigh, thinking this old man was just too stubborn.
"I gladly accept," Sakuya answered simply since this old man just wanted to send his soldiers dead, so why should she reject?
Edward was her enemy, and she wasn't going to show mercy toward her enemy.
However, was it going to be so simple?
"Then it's decided."
Edward closed his pocket watch and couldn't wait to see Sakuya's weeping face when he killed all of the people in her academy.
The two had made up their decision, and no one was going to back down.
The killing game had started, and the only way to stop it was by killing each other!
