As the wingless Angels on the ground still have not spotted the Slayers, they knew that they had the upper hand at the first strike.
"Our first attack has to be a success. We have the odds of it in our favor."
Ignis Silva said before turning towards Luken Regalia, the Commander's field of view.
The Commander looked at his rival's eyes dead on.
"What do you want?"
The blue haired SS Rank Water Slayer asked.
"I, as the Operation Phoenix's leader, wish to have you take the first attack against these newly spotted monsters."
"Why does it have to be me, though? I am not really in the mood, Ignis."
Luken sighed.
"Because, you bumbling fool, as much as I cannot stand your attitude, I acknowledge your strength. I have little to no playing cards left, counting the ones I have in total – I only possess about fifty of them. I would do it myself, but I am in a bit of a rut, as you can see."
