"Oi. Thank you for your hard work Ibuki. It was a good performance."
"...Was it justified?"
"Justified? You knew you had to do it without making a mess or you wouldn't have come here."
"Right."
I heard some shuffling noises.
"So, where's the card?"
"It's here."
I noticed through the tone of her voice, she hated Ryuen, she really did, but I understand her, I understand now, why she follows him.
"Ibuki, give me the card."
"...Right. It's just, he didn't deserve this."
I heard some heavy footsteps, and Ibuki took a sharp intake of breath.
"What he deserves or doesn't deserve doesn't matter, what matters is that he loses. The kind of person he is will always lose. Now, are you going to give me the keycard, or are you against me?"
"...I'm with you."
She sensed the hidden threat Ryuen said that with, and I sighed as I adjusted in my spot.
It's trivial I don't move too much, in case she comes back to check on me out of pity or something.
I heard Ryuen hum, the card presumably in his hand.
"You, come here to confirm it as well. You demanded it from the start. Be at ease, no one is supposed to be here in this weather and darkness. It's good to take precautions but don't waste your time."
I can only assume A class, if he was talking to someone from B class they would face my full wrath.
I heard some more steps through the rain, and felt my blood boil as the person spoke up.
"Looks like the real deal."
"Do you agree with this?"
Katsuragi, from A class.
This is preposterous.
A class teaming up with C class to help take down B and D classes? What is this madness?
It would make more sense if he teamed up with us in D class, since, hypothetically, if we become their only opponent, we'd be easy to squash.
"You managed to infiltrate D class quite well, how did you do it?"
"Well, that remains a mystery, doesn't it?"
"One of the members of D class, this Shizukana, their leader... what did you make of him?"
I could tell the question was directed at Ibuki this time.
"He's pretty strong, and smart, but he's foolish. His ideals are getting in his way."
"Will he be a threat in the future?"
"If he can get over his soft side, a little bit yeah."
"Ha."
I smiled, happy about this sudden shift in conversation.
"Haha, hahaha. HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Just wait and see!
Come tomorrow, your mind will be blown!
"Heh, return this back to him, I want him to be reminded of his failure each time he looks at his card."
A few minutes later, I heard some footsteps in real time, and someone soon stood over me.
They were just standing still, staring down at me.
