"What?!" Rui frowned with incredulity, widening his eyes.
"Yeah, I couldn't believe it myself when I first heard him, but he made it quite clear," Kane sighed, tired. "But he approached me when I was eating lunch in the cafeteria. And then he challenged me out of nowhere from the blue."
"And then?"
"Well, I had to accept since I hadn't accepted any challenge in the past ten days at all," Kane replied. "I'm so glad that killing has been prohibited ever since the war began, I would be a lot more nervous if it wasn't."
Kane had seen Ieyasu fight and had absolutely no intentions of ever getting into a fight with the man if he could just ignore and reject his challenge.
But unfortunately, he simply couldn't.
"But why?" Rui frowned for a moment before he arrived at an answer almost immediately.
"I don't know, honestly," Kane replied, sighing. "Why would the number one guardian challenge me, who's not even in the first class? Why even challenge anyone at all? It makes no sense."
