Back to the tower, Kazuto's team continued their journey with the unconscious Niken to where the Maho awaited them.
Their steps stopped a safe distance between the two teams without lowering their guard.
The one standing at the very front was Richard, followed by Hiro, standing next to Richard. Behind them was Scarlet and then Kazuto, who was carrying the still unconscious Niken.
"What do you want? Do you want to challenge us?" Richard's hands began to reveal a fiery ball of fire.
Not only Richard but Hiro and Scarlet were also getting ready to counterattack as soon as the Maho team was about to fight them.
"We have no interest in being your opponents in this preliminary round. We are waiting for you on purpose to suggest you join hands with us."
Richard and Hiro looked at each other as if questioning the offer. They simultaneously looked back to ask Kazuto's opinion regarding the mix-blood wizard's suggestion.
