Summary:
After the little misunderstanding on the situation with Hayato and Montaro, Seiten (plus the honorary members, Takeji, and Montaro) then finally discuss about the current situation in hand.

"O-oh, so Montaro said something really weird about you and then, out of anger, you pinned him onto a wall???" Arthesia asked, trying to process everything that Hayato just told them.
"U-um....yeah....But I was joking, I swear!" Montaro said, waving his hands in dismissal. "Joking my fucking ass." Hayato replied, before huffing in annoyance, a tint of pink appearing on his cheeks again as he crossed his arms.
"Uh....anyways. Let me explain everything now--"
"No need, Silverwing.....I know the deal with Mantis now. He left Fukushu, right?" Hayato guessed, and Takeji clapped his hands in amusement. "Correct, correct~! My, Hayato Matsuzaka, you are very smart for such a pretty man." The scientist teased, and that made Hayato's face even more red.
"What the- Shut the fuck up!" He yelled at the lime haired man, who only apologized with the joke excuse that Montaro pulled earlier (except it's actually an excuse, unlike Montaro). Meanwhile, Seito could only glare daggers at Takeji and Hayato's small little quarrel. A sense of jealousy arising in him.
"B-big bro...?" Yoshiki's voice snapped him out of his trance. "O-oh! Yes?" Seito replied, glancing over to his younger brother. "You look.....jealous. Don't tell me you--" "LET'S SAVE THAT FOR ANOTHER TIME, YOSHI!" Seito yelled out, his face becoming even more red each passing second.
"Um, let's actually get serious now. So apparently Yume rewinded time and now we're at two weeks before Fukushu took over, which greatly confuses me because she usually just starts with a new timeline instead." David explained, putting a finger on his chin.
"She said in my dream that she didn't want us to suffer any longer, I think? I can't exactly remember....." Rumi said, shaking her head. "Huh, she actually pities us. And here I thought she doesn't." Arthesia ponders, staring off into space for some reason, with Xander sighing at the sight.
"So! What are we gonna do from here on out?" Arei asked, turning her head towards Seito. The man in question sighed, shaking his head to get rid of the blush on his face, before finally putting on a serious face. "We just have to do our best to prevent Fukushu from doing anything. If we could delay their takeover at least a little bit, then things can possibly go smoothly for us."
"Good idea! But how are we supposed to do that?" Xander asked. Seito thought about it for a moment, however, Takeji managed to think of something first. "We try to get one of the members to be on our side. As far as I can tell, Tsukushi is someone who seems to regret joining Fukushu. With the decrease of members, Alicia won't have anyone to work with and thus things will go downhill for her."
"Ah! Right! Tsuku! I know about her being a member of Fukushu, and I know that she doesn't like being in it." Hibiki chimed in. "Eh?! You actually know her?!" Xander asked, with Hibiki nodding her head in response. "Wait, doesn't Ms. Alicia have many things she can still use to initiate the takeover, though?" Wolfgang asked.
"Yeah, but don't worry, I'll deal with that problem." Takeji answered the lawyer's question, a rather mischievous smirk forming on his lips, and Hayato raised an eyebrow at that. "Right....." He muttered, sipping his tea that is somehow there on the table infront of him.

No matter what, they can't fail this time.
