"You think this is an amusement park? What if you accidentally get Black Dragon killed? I'll deal with you later for this. When did you arrive?""Just got off the plane. It's been a long time since I got to participate in some killing and arson with you, Master. Now that you're finally up for a big operation, of course, I had to come." Lei Li replied confidently."You war-mongering maniac. How many conflicts in this world have been caused by people like you?" Masashi shot him a glare."Master, don't blame me.…-

Kazumi suddenly asked."Yes.""For how many more days?"This question also caught Rumi's eager attention."For another day or two. I think it should be about time.""I'm afraid you might not want to stop; after all, she's Miss Naoko's sister. How could she be anything less?"

You are indeed a very skilled chess player, but no matter how good a chess player is, they can't see the whole picture like an observer can."Masashi turned to look at the mixed-race beauty, who was now crying uncontrollably. "Ailin, do you know how Amy describes you? She says you're pitiful. Though she doesn't know why, she knows you've always been in pain.

"This guy is with the Chink; let's beat him up together," another boy with gelled hair shouted.As soon as he finished, several boys encircled Masashi."Stop, all of you, stop!" Aiko, rushing in first, shouted at them."Aiko, do you know this guy?" the bespectacled boy asked, looking at her."He's my friend, please don't fight. This is just a misunderstanding," Aiko said anxiously."Ikeda, he really is Aiko's friend. Don't do anything rash," Mami also ran over."I don't care who he is; he struck first. Today, he…-
