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..."
