Chapter 22: Nonstop
The next day...
Karla: "(tearing up) First Adaly, then Joshua, and now Kevin?!"
Kevin has already been taken to who knows where, leaving Karla and Xavier.
Xavier: "We're the only ones left to gain the data on the Reuse card."
Karla: "(crying) How are we going to do that?! Their morality is through the roof!"
Xavier: "Then we just kick it back down."
Karla: "(crying) How?!"
Xavier: "Go after the weak link, Carlos Sakaki."
Karla wipes away her tears.
Karla: "(sniffling) Take him out to take the morality from the enemy.
Her Character Slate is Eriyall, Griffon of the Black Tower. It's stats are 10 ATK, 7 DEF, 128 HP, and 4 EP.
Eriyall: "What if we fall like them?"
Xavier clenches his fist.
Xavier: "Then I'll be forced to step in."
Karla looks at her deck.
Karla: "(deep breath) I'll do my best."
Karla exits the room.
Xavier: "It's all I can ask, but..."
Xavier looks at his Engager.
Xavier: "... she won't be satisfied."
One hour later...
Carlos: "So everyone is in the top 5 except us..."
The others are just hanging out at the Limiter Hub.
Derek: "Y-Yeah, looks like it."
Brai: "(awkwardly) That's just great..."
Raikiri: "Have fun being their new target."
Carlos/ Brai: "Wh-What's that supposed to mean?!"
Zerra: "We're saying that you're probably next in line as a sort of morality sponge."
Brai: "What makes you say that?"
Linus: "You're the only one not in the top 5."
Katie: "Do you want me to bring up your win rate?"
Awkward moment of silence...
Brai: "(awkwardly) Yeah..."
The sun is beginning to set.
Osilli: "So you need to make sure you've got what it takes to defeat Karla Tachibana."
Carlos: "Don't expect any miracles."
They all begin to leave.
Zerra: "You're going to need a few miracles..."
