She thought to herself further, "Thank you, for everything, Ty. I hope I get to see you at the end of all of this." Her thoughts were a mixture of hope and doubt, a silent prayer that she knew might never reach his ears.
Sighing deeply, Yun-Jin turned back to General Omina. "So, what is our next step? It's clear they've infiltrated on some level, and we know they have JJ in their grasp. What they did to Lt Daemon… there's no telling how deep their power goes or what fighters and skills they have. We have a general list of members, but one who uses black liquid to create portals? That's new, and it's dangerous. Continuing the tournament might be too risky."
General Omina was quiet for a moment, the slight twitch of her lips betraying her thoughts. "It is risky," she said. "But, I've got a fun idea—one that nips all of this in the bud." She gave a small smirk, her eyes hardening. "This way, we get our revenge for Daemon and bring down the old man in one strike."
