"Rebecca, why are you talking so much nonsense with that boy?" Suzune asked Rebecca.
Actually, although the woman was her mother, she never called her mother, she always called her by her name directly.
This did seem disrespectful, but Suzune was like that, she never respected anyone including her own mother.
The truth was that she only regarded her mother as the woman who gave birth to her and the situation left her with no other choice but to become an ally to her.
The emotional bond was almost non-existent between them.
And Rebecca herself thought in much the same way.
She never gave Suzune any affection. Every single thing she did to her was always about using her.
Rebecca didn't answer Suzune's question right away, she drank her wine again, this time until the entire cup was empty.
"Why not? I at least want to know what it's like to communicate with the man who will probably be our master in the future," she replied.
"What? What nonsense are you saying?" Suzune almost jumped when she heard her words, staring at her with wide open eyes.
"Why are you overreacting?" Rebecca looked at Suzune with an expression like she was looking down on her.
"I'm just talking in the scenario if we lose the next time we meet him," she said.
"Isn't that nonsense?" asked Suzune.
"There's no bullshit here. We live in a world of possibilities. Do you think the world will continue to revolve around us where nothing can stop us?" Rebecca laughed coldly as she said that, leaving Suzune speechless with her mouth open.
After a while, Suzune said, "so up until now you've been speculating that our plan will fail, and we'll be forcefully subdued by her? If that's the case, why should we do all this? It's tantamount to throwing ourselves into a crocodile's mouth. No, I don't want to submit to that brat, he's the one who should submit to me."
Her voice became louder with time.
Fortunately, they were in a VVIP room so Suzune's voice did not leak out at all unless the door was opened.
"Hehh, losing your nerve so quickly, Suzune, you're far from my level even when I was your age," Rebecca said in a dismissive tone.
Suzune was clearly annoyed by her words, but there was nothing she could say in reply.
In the end, she simply asked, "do you have any other cards?"
At this moment, she was suddenly suspicious because she didn't think Rebecca would just submit if she lost.
"My last card is my death and his death," Rebecca replied calmly.
Before Suzune could react, she continued, "Inside my body, there is a small but powerful explosive nuke. If I hug him and the nuke explodes, he will definitely die."
"You're crazy!" Suzune could not say anything other than that, finally realizing that following Rebecca was like plunging into an abyss with no way back.
"This will be a huge merit, I'm sure I'll still have a future someday," Rebecca said, staring at the sky outside the window with a deep gaze.
Suzune's expression became rather serious, she knitted her brows and wrinkled her forehead.
"You're really ready to die for something uncertain?" She said.
"Not necessarily, it's only an option if I don't like following that boy. After all, there's another possibility where I like him, if it's like that, there's no need to die, I'll just follow him. This doesn't matter because from the beginning I was also just a lackey, I can still accept myself as a lackey as long as I live in glory and determine the lives of many people."
Suzune, "..."

The night passed quietly.
Until now, Carla and Bella had not returned. They also didn't give any news so Arthur didn't know what they were doing.
However, through his spiritual birda inside their bodies, he didn't sense anything strange from them so they should be fine.
With their strength, practically nothing would happen unless they encountered another magus. Even if so, it might be the other party who was harmed because they were not weak as magus.
Around 8 PM, Arthur and Yukiko were already on the plane to Paris.
They deliberately used a plane to make the trip faster.
Of course, using the best seats. Yukiko paid for everything.
Her ninjas also followed them, so Arthur didn't need to bring anyone on his side.
This trip really didn't take long because it wasn't far.
As soon as the plane landed, Arthur immediately stood up from his seat, followed by Yukiko.
Today, her outfit was no different from before.
Arthur actually jokingly asked her to wear a short skirt to make her look like the Japanese girls he often saw in anime. However, Yukiko refused that. She apparently prefers closed clothes, which is her style as a ninja.
Exiting the plane, Arthur and Yukiko immediately arrived at the airport.
It was really a big place and full of various tourists.
Everyone from different countries could be found here, most of them wearing very nice outfits.
Paris is indeed a tourist paradise, there is no place in Europe that has more tourists than here.
"Arthur, hey, over here!" Suddenly a loud shout echoed out, much to the surprise of the tourists as no one had shouted so far. Those who were waiting for the average guest were using posters as markers.
Even Yukiko was surprised because she was sure that the one who was called was the man beside her.
Staring in the direction of the voice, she found a chubby young man with round glasses.
Surprisingly enough, he was accompanied by a sexy blonde beauty, holding his hand while leaning against his body.
Of course, he was Harry, the student sitting next to Arthur.
Before coming to this city, Arthur had communicated with him and he promised to pick him up.
Arthur didn't mind as it would make things simpler.
Upon seeing him, Arthur immediately stepped towards him.
The blonde beauty beside Harry looked at him with sparkling eyes after being surprised by his figure that was indeed attractive to any woman.
She wondered how Harry had such a handsome friend.
