Meanwhile, at Yunyi's home.
Mayumi Saegusa Nanagusa stared intently at the message transmitted through the terminal, pondering how to convey its contents to Yunyi.
The twins Kasumi and Izumi, sat beside Mayumi Saegusa, and both of them saw the contents of the terminal. However, they were both confused as to why things had suddenly changed like this.
While the three were feeling down, Yunyi was in the room discussing their next plan with the others via encrypted communication.
" Yunyi, you've been quite abrupt this time. We've only just begun to quell the internal strife, and you shouldn't have revealed your identity at this time!" Xiaoxue stated her opinion with a serious expression on the communication screen.
The other person in the scene, after listening to Xiaoxue's opinion, also spoke up, "Yes, A-Yi, you were indeed a bit rash this time. Even you shouldn't underestimate the power of a nation!"
Xiaoxue and Chen Mei's opinions did not prompt Yunyi to offer an explanation. His gaze remained fixed on the figure in the center of the terminal screen.
After Xiaoxue and Chen Mei finished speaking, Shen Yi put down the documents in her hand. She looked up and stared directly at the communication terminal in front of her, saying, "Tell me your reasons."
Hearing her words, Yunyi nodded. After organizing his thoughts, he slowly said, "I did this primarily to distract myself."
"Everyone is aware of the current situation within the alliance. Although Xiaoxue is leading others in handling it, unrest like this can't be concealed once it gets going. And you all know the modus operandi of those ' Stick Faction' —how many of their subordinates are traitors? If the internal turmoil escalates even slightly, the surrounding countries will definitely be uneasy. But if Japan breaks out in Japan first, the rest of the world will certainly pay closer attention to this region. After all, in an era rife with magic, Japan, a magical superpower, is more likely to attract attention. We can also take this opportunity to quell the internal strife."
"Secondly, what I want to do is clear to everyone. Mages shouldn't be used as killing tools, but mages are far stronger than ordinary people. Without restrictions, the world will spiral out of control. To prevent this, we ourselves must possess the ability to control the magic world on a global scale. If the Japan government and military are really planning to take action against me this time, then it will be a good opportunity to test what we've prepared and give the world a little shock."
Yunyi's seemingly casual remark only made Xiaoxue and Chen Mei's expressions more serious. They were already somewhat familiar with the steps involved in the plan. The step Yunyi just mentioned was clearly being brought forward considerably.
Before the two women could speak, Shen Yi frowned and said, "An excuse."
"I need to know your true thoughts, not these high-sounding words."
Upon hearing this, Yunyi immediately wiped the smile off his face. He and Shen Yi stared at each other for a moment through the terminal screen before he sighed softly, "I still can't hide it from you."
Shen Yi raised her eyebrows slightly, but did not comment on Yunyi's attempt to deceive her. She simply waited for him to reveal his true thoughts.
After a moment of silence, Yunyi slowly opened his slightly closed eyes. His gaze, reflected on the terminal screen, entered the eyes of Xiaoxue and Chen Mei, causing the two women to tremble slightly involuntarily.
"The reason I'm revealing my identity at this time is indeed to attract attention. But saying it's for the sake of the domestic situation isn't entirely true. My real purpose is to provoke the Japan Ten Master Clans and the military to take action against me, so that I have the opportunity and sufficient reason to teach them a lesson they won't forget."
"A mere tiny island nation, relying on its advanced magic, dares to send an army to intimidate other countries and even thinks of coercing me? How can I not let their fleet sink into the sea to satisfy their arrogance?"
Yunyi's answer left Xiaoxue and Chen Mei somewhat at a loss. Only Shen Yi remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking, "The space carrier isn't finished yet. I can only deploy twelve 'destroyers' here to deter Japan, which could easily be exploited."
Shen Yi's words silenced Yunyi. They had only officially started implementing the plan a few years ago, and Shen Yi's main focus was on the construction of quantum computers and Skynet. The construction of warships had to be carried out carefully, avoiding the attention of various countries, so the number was naturally not that many.
"Isn't the US fleet also heading towards Japan? If I'm not mistaken, the US military must have made a deal with that guy Gu Jie this time, right? I think we might be able to take advantage of this opportunity?" Yunyi suggested.
Upon hearing the name Gu Jie, a slight change appeared on Shen Yi's calm expression. She hated this man who had killed her husband and manipulated his corpse with Ancient Magic.
"I know what to do. Leave the deterrence to me. Remember, Gu Jie shouldn't exist in this world."
After saying that, Shen Yi immediately cut off the communication. Yunyi knew very well that mentioning that name had stirred up his mother's emotions. But he didn't regret doing so. After all, since his mother left the country, her emotions had become increasingly calm, so calm that he felt she no longer cared much for this world.
If mentioning the name Gu Jie can "activate" his mother's emotions, he'll accept it even if she beats him up and dislikes him afterwards.
Yunyi turned her gaze to the other two, and Chen Mei sighed softly, saying, "I'll go check on Sister Yi."
After Chen Mei also ended the communication, Xiaoxue finally spoke up, "How confident are you about this plan?"
Yunyi chuckled lightly, "I won't do anything I'm not sure of. During these past few months of infiltrating Japan, I've confirmed one thing. That threat from back then is no longer a threat to me."
"I'm glad you didn't get too caught up in the romance. I'll handle the internal issues within the alliance, so you can focus on what you need to do."
After saying that, Xiaoxue smiled at the image of Tongxu and then disconnected the connection.
After all three small screens in the video went black, Yunyi leaned back in his chair. Just as he was about to rest, the call he had just ended suddenly rang again.
Yunyi frowned slightly. He picked up the communicator and glanced at it. After seeing the caller information displayed on it, a hint of doubt immediately arose in his heart.
"Did this guy get some information, or is there something else going on?"
