"Duel!" x2
Kira, LP 4000 Ushio, LP 4000
Hearing that an officer from the Security Maintenance Bureau had come to duel the prison warden, every prisoner in the entire facility crowded against the bars of their cells to watch.
Under normal circumstances, the prisoners naturally saw the entire Security Maintenance Bureau as an enemy organization. They had no favorable impression of any so-called officer, seeing them only as representatives of a violent institution where the privileged class oppressed those below them.
