"....." Crowslayer.

"You have no reason to refuse, do you? Only some insects fly too close to the light. Are they worth your precious time? My men have been getting information about you. You're done doing your part. Now, all you have to do is go home. After all, you are responsible for the core energy sector and its surroundings" the boy said.

"Don't do anything unnecessary!" reply Crowslayer.

"You still have to go somewhere, right?" keep the boy.

"..Alright. Only up you. I can't wait to see you fail."

"Oh..??"

"We're leaving" Crowslayer told his troops.

He then went to be with some Reunion soldiers. I don't know what they're talking about, but Amiya and the Rhodes Island soldiers feel that they must act. They must be able to thwart Reunion's evil plans. However, it could not be done easily because they still had to deal with the mysterious boy.

From the way he spoke, it seemed like the boy was a very influential figure. Even he was able to control someone older than him. But that was not enough with what he showed Rhodes Island. True, a large number of troops, who always obey and never defy his orders.

"One of the leaders of the enemy.?. took some of the Reunion's troops and left?" Amiya looked confused.

"What are they doing? Whatever it is, we mustn't let our guard down! There are many enemies!" sahut Doberman.

"alright. Let me apologize for what Crowslayer has done. He is a rude man. But if given a little advice, he would be a very good person" the boy said as he walked towards the Rhodes Island warriors.

"You can call me Mepishto. Nice to meet you guys, Rhodes Island." said the boy.

Who would have thought, it turns out that the boy is Mephisto who is often mentioned. From some previous episodes it has been explained that most commands carried out by Reunion are commands given by someone named Mephisto. That way, it is clear that Mephisto is not just anyone. He was such an influential person that he was able to control half of the Reunion forces scattered in Chernobog.

"...Why are you doing all this?! What does Reunion want to accomplish?!" ask Doberman.

"Oh, nothing special. To be honest, I don't mind if you guys leave. You're not even our target, okay?" answer Mephisto.

"If we're not your target, then why..??" amiya.

"However, I have the honor of being allowed to see your battles. The combat tactics you use and the personnel arrangements are quite interesting" Mephisto said with a small smile.

"...Interesting, you say? Do you think the massacre was.interesting?" ask the medic.

"Rhodes Island.I've gotten a lot of information about your group before. At first, I thought you were nothing more than a regular company. But, don't you think that your ambitions have gone too far? It would be boring to let you guys get out of here, wouldn't it? All I want is to hold a little competition, some kind of ritual."

"We don't have much time!" reply Doberman.

The Doberman then walked back towards Amiya and whispered, "Amiya, get ready! We might break through by force. To do that, I'll distract him!"

"Mm. okay."

Just.. out..!! Dobermanns fired flares into the sky.

"...Whatisit? Who are you giving singal to?" ask Mephisto.

"It's none of your business, son." replied the Doberman, "Amiya.." whispered Doberman without turning his head to make Mephisto unsuspecting that they were plotting to escape.

"Come on, we're all professionals here. Where's your modesty?"

"Doberman.All our exits have been blocked by his troops." replied Amiya.

"How come? How did he do that in minutes?"

"Hm. It doesn't seem like this is going to work. Although I gave you a sincere invitation.but all you think about is. run away, run away, and run away..??" at the end of the sentence, Mephisto seemed to be smiling to show that he was not joking.

"Sad.." Doberman looked upset.

"Actually, I'll let you get away from my hunting area safely if you win. Until then, all my friends here will keep trying to kill you" Mephisto explained.

"Victory to you if you don't die! The rules are easy, right?" once again, Mephisto again said with a grinning smile.

"Ace!" call Doberman.

"We're ready to break through. But we should be able to dodge their attacks first." Ace replied.

"...Why are you doing all this? Disaster is coming! If we don't leave Chernobog, then we will.." unfinished Amiya said, suddenly Mephisto interrupted his speech.

"Disaster? What are you talking about? Disaster.is a great time to celebrate!" mephisto replied with a grinning smile.

This is really weird. Amiya looked at Mephisto like someone who had a mental disorder. From the way he talks, and himself who thinks that death is an interesting show are signs of a psychopath.

If Amiya's assumption that Mephisto is a person with a mental disorder is true, then why would a person like him be able to become a leader? The way he spoke also sounded like a robot, heavy, and very hoarse.

"You're sick" said Amiya.

"O dear guests, I am honored to invite you into this game." having said, Mephisto then flicked his fingers to signify that the game of survival had begun.

"Kill them all!" said a Reunion soldier.

"Amiya, lookout!" sahut Doberman.

"Actually, we know exactly what you're doing in the central area."

".....??" hearing this, Amiya was confused.

"The masked man was very, very curious. Crowslayer is very fixated on what you will do next, such as where you will go. But I'm different. What I care about is.." Mephisto remained silent for a moment and turned to the doctor.

"Who are you really? Where you from? Yes, you, who are talking to me right now. You feel different than us. How can you survive in a place like this? I'm very curious." said Mephisto.

"Look, I'm not a mean person. How about this, my honored Rhodes Island guest. What if you give that person to me as a gift? It would be a shame if the game ended early, but at least I'll let you guys go. How's it?"

Anyone would immediately know that Mephisto had just raised a war flag. Therefore, for a person who can do nothing like a doctor, all he can do is take cover.

"Doctor.have hidden behind me!" amiya said without looking. Amiya was busy looking at Mephisto with a sharp look in her eyes.

"Oh, I get it. However, this was what I had expected from the beginning. All right, time for the party to start."

Seriate.
