Alejandro was very upset, he thought that the matter of the duel would end with a single word from his mother, but he was disappointed since Anai left him to his fate.
Alejandro thought he was dreaming, his mother has always been protective of him and tolerated his whims, even when he messed up even so Anai made sure to clean his butt, but now it was different.
"Shit! Shit! I hate this!"
Fortunately for Alejandro while he was in a fit of rage, someone helped him..
'Ladies of War Industries'
This was a gigantic industry that before Deus Ex Machina appeared was the one that was at the forefront in the technological field, but now due to the warmth of its products, the company's shares fell and its credibility fell as well.
After all they couldn't keep up with Deus Ex Machina in technology, they still couldn't solve the power problem and thus Deus Ex Machina replaced them as a government affiliated company.
But this did not stop these companies, in the last three years they have been creating new technology, for them the duel between Alejandro and Arthur who is the son of the vice president of Deus Ex Machina is quite attractive.
Especially to show that their products are superior to this new company.
Therefore they visited Alejandro and offered him the new model, also during these days they offered him all the necessary assistance so that Alejandro can pilot this Wunder and fight normally.
They did not care if Alejandro had skills or not, as long as the new Wunder demonstrates greater performance and combat power than Arthur, they will show that they are still the best technology company in the country.
This was no longer a battle between teenagers, it was a battle of prestige between two Tech Giants.
"Another Great Day"
Of course Arthur did not care about such things, he knew that the one that is supposed to be his competition would not miss this opportunity to discredit his company, but they were simple ignorant trying to compete with the Akagi War Machine, the mother of the technology.
But it was fine, Arthur had already foreseen all this and it's also the reason why he left the three day deadline.
However just at that moment that Arthur was about to leave the room he trembled as he felt a look, he frowned and using augmented reality he expanded the visualization of him, unfortunately he found nothing.
"Arthur..."
And when he was about to open his eyes Akagi spoke to him, his chibi figure sat on his shoulder as she affectionately hugged his neck.
"What's happening?"
"My cover-up has failed..."
"That?"
Arthur couldn't stay calm, as this only meant one thing...
'The time had come to go home...'
"What happened? Why did your cover fail early?"
Arthur had already calculated the failure of Akagi's cover-up, after all she was not perfect not to mention that it was not her area of specialty, however according to Level Upper, such an anomaly was scheduled for a year later...
"A gigantic power intervened in the time lines and caused a failure in my system disturbing the calculation, I can not do anything about this"
Akagi sighed helplessly, there were many ways to track a person and each method used Akagi was responsible for blocking their signal, however now someone opened a space-time dimension and looked into the past, in other words someone from the future was spying on him ...
This is a flaw in the cloaking system, since it would be normal for someone from the past to spy on the future to find out Arthur's whereabouts, not the other way around, due to this all the resources that Akagi had from the future were limited which caused a failure...
Not to mention the great power this person had...
"But don't worry, even if I fail in Cloaking Time, my other abilities still work..."
"..."
Arthur didn't answer, he opened his eyes of infinity and began to calculate, he needed to know exactly how far in the future this person found him and who he was...
If it was the Angels he had to be prepared, likewise if it was his family he had to finish all the preparations in the human continent, for the war.
"Hmm?"
And at that moment his infinity eyes that seemed to look into the future met other crystal blue eyes that looked into the past...
"Grandmother..."
That's right, the person who found him also possessed another pair of infinity eyes and according to his data collected from him, in the world other than his grandmother, there was no one else who had awakened these eyes...
--------------
"I found you, my naughty little pup~"
In the future, Margareth had both hands on her eyes simulating a pair of binoculars, it had been so long since Arthur disappeared and they still couldn't find him that Margareth suspected.
Therefore instead of spying on him in the future he decided to go back and do the opposite, who would have thought he would succeed...
Who would have thought it would be successful...
Even so she was also surprised by what she was seeing, Arthur was doing well in the human continent and the surprises that this boy had prepared left her satisfied and surprised.
"It's still time for you to come back..."
Elizabeth will go crazy if Arthur doesn't come back, so even though Arthur was fine, she had to bring him back...
"Hm? Did someone beat me to it?"
However while she was spying, she also noticed the people who were already looking for Arthur in the Human continent and even already in the same city as him, it could be said that they were already waiting for Arthur at his house these days. moments.
"Kakaka what funniest women"
And since these two women were her own people, Margareth laughed and let them be the ones to bring Arthur home.
Since they were the first to find it, she Margareth would not deny them the reward..
That's right, the juicy reward that Elizabeth offered to the person who is able to find Arthur is very generous...
Such a reward that was limited to only those involved in the kidnapping incident and who knew Arthur was missing...
"Never mind, I'll take another look~"
Since Arthur was about to return very soon, Margareth decided to spend her time spying on the adventures he had in these years away from home...
------------------
"125 days, 3 hours and 25 minutes..."
Level Upper's calculation was accurate, as he needed to know how much time he had left, and he was somewhat relieved to learn that he wasn't an enemy.
"Fortunately I still have time for the continental competition..."
Arthur sighed in relief, one of the plans was to enter this competition and win, since it was important to his plans if he wanted to keep the human race under his orders, so the search for his family was a problem, fortunately he still had time .
Nevertheless...
"There are two anomalies... Akagi"
That's right, apart from Margareth's gaze, Arthur detected another presence from years in the future, he wasn't spying or anything like that, rather he was lost, but it was undoubtedly provoked by Margareth who opened this mirror passage in time.
"Hm? Oh you mean that, it's 10 years in the future and I don't think it's a problem..."
"Are you sure?"
"That's right, don't worry..."
Akagi waved her hand, it's not as if such anomalies weren't common, when looking in the future, many things happen and sometimes these anomalies appear, however before they cause damage or change is the timeline they are lost in space-time and they are destroyed.
Therefore Akagi wasn't worried...
"Okay..."
Trusting Akagi, Arthur left his room, the duel awaits him and of course also Indara...
"Liam, it's good to see you again"
"Miss Free..."
And with Indara she couldn't miss her good friend Libe, this girl has been coming to her house every day, Arthur already knew why she did it and her excuse was quite obvious, even so it's not like she was annoying or anything like that , was showing a slightly different method of conquest than usual, since unlike her older sister Lynne who sends her gifts expressing her romantic interest, this girl was starting out in friendship so she was distant and at the same time proactive.
"Nice to see you too, Miss Lynne..."
"Liam, I got your message, I'm glad you liked my gift..."
The expressionless Lynne also arrived and next to her was also Ludwig, the three sons of the Astariet Family had come to accompany Arthur.
"Thank you, I liked them a lot..."
Of course this wasn't entirely true, since Lynne's gifts consisted of chocolates and fine sweets, which Arthur couldn't taste since Akagi ate them, even so she wrote a message thanking her.
"You know, when all this is over, there is a nice restaurant that is famous for its desserts, do you want to go with me?..."
"Of course I would love to..."
Approaching Lynne took her hand and caressed him tenderly, although she was expressionless, her actions showed her affection, Arthur did not refuse, he smiled and let this girl take her hand and walked with her.
This action of course let Indara taste the bitterness of jealousy and Libe will doubt herself...
Since her older sister succeeded and invited Arthur out on a date.
(Wait! No! It shouldn't be like that!)
Libe thought that she had already figured out Arthur's personality and that the plan to conquer her was slow but sure.
After all MCs like Arthur were fed up with gifts, flattery and of course pushy women, such traditional conquests don't work for him, so Libe thought of going another route.
The Friendship Route, an MC like Arthur was common in novels and games, his conquest route was also to act normal and if possible cause annoyance to the MC.
For an MC so beautiful that a woman does not show interest in them causes their pride to be hurt and they are interested in them and therefore after some events, the MC ends up falling in love, Libe for that reason reduced her distance towards Arthur and at the same time He showed no interest other than friendship and he also used Indara for that.
Libe thought this was a safe route, but now she's not sure anymore, Arthur is not an MC who follows the conquest pattern.
And of course he wouldn't, Arthur isn't an idiot to be interested in a woman who doesn't want him.
In her past world he did the same with women and sent them gifts, what happened is that he was rejected, in addition that such a woman ended up in the arms of a man of a man who treated her selflessly.
Arthur knew what it felt like to be rejected, so he decided to fuck these disinterested women and take in the women who were interested.
After all, if these women do everything for him, it means they mean business.
