"Look into my eyes," Thirteen replied. "Does this look like the eyes of a liar to you? If you say yes, I'll go pack up and return to the Aldeberan Continent. Good luck winning this war on your own."
Douglas and the Patriarchs of the Prestigious Clans had come to Casimir City for one thing, and one thing only.
They intended to blackmail Zion Leventis.
How did they plan to blackmail him?
They would not only use Princess Aracelle's departure as a way to make him owe them a favor…
But they would also use the remaining unknown within the 69th Battalion against him.
How?
They plan to forcibly take Stella into their custody and use her as a bargaining chip against the teenage boy. That way, he'd be more compliant with their demands and grant them a favor.
All they needed was one favor, and they would let bygones be bygones.
Unfortunately, they didn't know Thirteen very well.
It was impossible for them to scheme against Zion Leventis.
Scheme against the System of Cannon Fodders?
