Chapter 18.2

Game of Tactics begins

Rick looked up at Sevan with a slight look of surprise, before growling when he sensed Sevan’s intention to make his partner look bad.

‘Don’t play around Sevan. Do you have any idea who you’re talking to?! He’s th-‘

‘X! Leave it man’, Crown ordered, cutting his partner of mid-sentence.

‘But he’s…’, Rick tried to protest but was stopped by a calm firm look from Crown who then turned back to look at Sevan.

‘….Nope. Crown does not have a number’, he replies to the leader of The Order, before smiling as he rubs the back of his neck, ‘I’m just the teams brains after all’.

‘Yes I see. A pity if you ask me. King should have been given your role. He’d be a better man to fight’, Fujimori mocked the young brown skinned male.

‘Hey fool! Shut the fuck up! If you haven’t already figured it out, Crown was the brains behind the operations which foiled your first attack on Rakkenhima as well as your Guardian project!’, Rick yelled at Fujimori.

‘Well that is true. Although the info you sent to me about which base the I.M troops would be hitting was very helpful in stopping the Guardian project, X’, Crown told his friend.

But Rick barely caught his words, his concentration and anger aimed at the ones from the order.

‘Well he may have thought out the plans, but you’re the one who did all the heavy lifting s-‘

‘Enough Damien!’, Sevan suddenly cut off Fujimori, stunning both The Order and the two boys.

‘Now the boy may not be a fighter but he is a brilliant tactician, seen from our countless failures due to his strategies. And to me it’d be more exciting to face a mentally strong leader then a physically strong one’, Sevan explained before looking at Crown, giving him a slightly friendly smile, ‘So my boy, will you be able to counter the plans I have laid out for your little Taskforce, hmm?’

Crown blinks a few times, never expecting to hear such words from Sevan. Once the initial shock faded and his brain processed the question, Crown gave a slight nod.

‘Yeah…I’ll counter them. But are you ready to face me in a battle of brains again, Mr. Martin Sevan?’, Crown answered with a question of his own, giving Sevan a similar smile as the he had given him.

A soft chuckle escapes the lips of the man who had been asked the question from the young leader of 666, who looked at his enemy with a sincere look of respect in his eyes.

‘I’ll always be ready to face you boy. Throw whatever you have at me. I’ll crush it’, Sevan replied confidently.

Crown merely looked at Sevan, a small smirk forming on his face, ‘Heh…What a coincidence. I was going to say the same thing to you’

‘Ok if you two are about done…A.D, tell the fool what you need to tell him and let’s leave. I’m getting bored’, Rick suddenly cuts into the conversation, his anger having cooled down once Crown had taken charge of the situation.
