A few minutes passed and Olivia woke up, being immediately greeted by both her sister and Yuyen who had nothing else to do
" Where's the boy? "
Olivia questioned, while slowly sitting up, rubbing her head which had was bleeding
" Well, you see sister.. "
Alice replied, pausing as she didn't want to anger her, but before she could continue, Shu would glide past them at sonic speeds and after him would come the other two, causing the air to make the girl's clothes and hair flow back aggressively along with the grass on the ground
" So I was nothing more than a weak and boring fighter to him "
Olivia whispered, whilst slowly standing up, patting away at her clothes in an attempt to get rid of all the dirt and blood she had on herself
" Alice, tell him to come visit me at my residence "
Olivia said, looking down at her sister before red energy began to envelop her, and soon after she would fly away
" I hope she isn't thinking of having a rematch with him "
Alice whispered, loud enough for Yuyen to hear. Both of them would sigh, before looking at each other for a few seconds, proceeding to smile at one another right afterward.
While that happened, in the Sukeki village, a very important meeting was being held, by two important people
" I suggest we start the war in a week from now "
A woman with dark hair and completely violet eyes said, as she slid a few papers across the table they were sitting at
" What is this? "
The person who the other woman was talking to said, she seemed very much like a child, her body structure and height would suggest as much, but the conversation they were currently having would greatly differ
" That's all the information that Mikey and Jenna have gathered so far, and going by that information, I believe we should mobilize our army immediately, prepare food, weapons, and attack by the end of the week "
The woman with long hair replied, staring at the smaller woman who sighed a bit whilst slowly flipping through the papers her partner had given her
" Elena, please tell me you aren't suggesting we attack the second strongest kingdom in the continent just like that "
The smaller woman said while looking at the other now known as Elena
" But of course not, I wouldn't just rush in, I've come up with a plan—a strategy to take down the kingdom's army in one swoop, and you, Valentine, are the center of the strategy "
Elena replied, making the woman now known as Valentine suck in her teeth
" But that's the army, soon after, Romulus and his elites will attack us right after our army just took care of theirs—our warriors will be weak and tired "
Valentine exclaimed, reading the last piece of paper from the lot that Elena gave her, moving it to a side, being stared at by Elena who had a smile on her face
" Valentine. Don't you remember? About a year ago, me and Hanaku Fu, the strongest man on earth, had a meeting, do you want to know what we had discussed about? "
Elena questioned, making Valentine somewhat curious, leaning forward a bit while placing her hands on the table
" Don't tell me.. "
" Yes that's right, me, Fu, Yanu, and Anu will attack the king directly while the others fight. Ayami should be strong enough to face an Elite by herself, and Shu, master's grandson will be helping as well, there's no way we could lose "
Elena said, interrupting the smaller woman, who laid back against her chair, trying to think over the plan that her friend had just stated
" I get the plan to take out the army, but, what makes you so sure that Fu will win against Romulus? "
Valentine questioned, as she squinted her eyes a bit, making Elena chuckle in return
" Valentine, I have traveled across three worlds with Romulus, Fu, and master's other apprentices, and throughout that entire journey, the gap between Fu and Romulus's power was immense "
Elena replied while crossing her arms, making Valentin close her eyes, trying to think of a way the plan could fail as she still felt that something was lacking
" What if Romulus has become strong enough to fight against Fu? "
Valentine asked, making Elena smile in return while slowly unraveling her arms
" And? I'll be there to help as well. Just admit it, Valentine, there isn't any way this plan could fail "
Elena said, making Valentine shake her head, trying to think of ways to improve Elena's plan or point out its flaws
" Elena, you made this plan according to past experiences, what if Romulus sees this coming? What if he sent us these letters "
Valentine exclaimed, grabbing the papers, picking them up, and shaking them aggressively
" You're overthinking this too much Valentine, the plan is good, and you know it "
Elena replied, as her smile slowly vanished, looking at her friend with a calm expression
" When did you get these letters "
" A few hours ago "
Elena replied, making Valentine sigh
" Don't you think that's a bit weird? I mean, who just sends about twenty letters simultaneously? That's too suspicious. This is just a hunch but, the enemy could have made up all these letters and forced Mikey and Jenna to send them in "
Valentine said as she waved her hands aggressively from left to right
" But that's just a hunch, isn't it? Just trust me, I've already gone over this with the warriors as well as Yanu and Anu, and they have all agreed to it, now we just need your approval since you're the center of it all. So please "
Elena begged, as Valentine simply rubbed her forehead slight, closing her eyes in a bit of annoyance
" Alright, I'll agree to the plan for now, but if I find anything suspicious with it, we're dropping it. Deal? "
Valentine questioned, raising an eyebrow as Elena smiled, nodding a few times
" Great! Now all we have to do is give everyone their roles to play and we're set "
