Yunyi landed on the rooftop. He walked past Tatsuya Shiba, reached the edge, leaned over the railing, and looked down before slowly speaking, " Tatsuya, didn't you ask me before what my purpose was in coming to Japan?"
"It's actually quite simple. I want to establish a power, a power that can balance the world's power structure. To do this, I need to understand the current state of development of Modern Magic, and I also need some powerful allies."
"So, you went to the America first, and then came to Japan? But I don't think that the regulatory mechanisms for magicians in those two countries would give you any opportunity to take advantage," Tatsuya Shiba said.
Yunyi nodded slightly. "You're right, but you've misunderstood something. The people I'm trying to win over are far from ordinary magicians. To be realistic, there are very few people in all of Japan who qualify for my recruitment list. As for the country's oversight mechanisms, are they really that important to us?"
Upon hearing Yunyi's question, Tatsuya Shiba fell into deep thought. Indeed, as Yunyi said, when a mage's strength reaches a certain level, the country's attitude towards him will change. Just like Mio Itsuwa, her status as Strategic-Class Magic allowed the Itsuwa Family to maintain its position among the Ten Master Clans. As for himself, he was only kept in the dark because Yotsuba Clan had tried so hard to conceal his abilities. If his strength were fully exposed, the attitude of the Japan government would be predictable.
"So, you came to Japan and entered First High School just to win over your brother?" Miyuki Shiba suddenly interjected.
"Win him over? Actually, my initial plan was to get rid of him, Miyuki." Yunyi replied with a smile upon hearing Miyuki Shiba's question. However, his answer immediately put Miyuki Shiba on guard.
Seeing her like this, Yunyi shook his head and said, "You don't need to put on this act. You should know that with your abilities, you're no different from an ordinary person in front of me. Besides, if I really wanted to kill him, I would have done it back in Okinawa. Why wait until now?"
These words stunned both Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba.
"Were you there at that time?" Tatsuya Shiba stepped forward, blocking his younger sister's path. Even after so much time had passed, Tatsuya Shiba still couldn't forget the feeling his sister had when she was on the verge of death, when the events in Okinawa were brought up.
"That's right, I was there too. I just used a vision-concealing magic to hide myself, so none of you noticed me. That was the first time I saw you two, and it was also a perfect opportunity. I originally wanted to take Miyuki away directly. If I could just take her away and then guide her a little, it would be a piece of cake to use her to control you," Yunyi said.
Listening to Yunyi's words, Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba felt a tightness in their scalps. The siblings had discussed Yunyi's plans and speculated on his motives in Yunyi. But when Yunyi said these things, they were genuinely flustered.
Especially for Miyuki Shiba, she couldn't help but wonder what her relationship with her brother would be like now if Yunyi had really done that back then?
"Are you wondering what your relationship with Tatsuya would be now if I had taken you away back then?" Yunyi looked at Miyuki Shiba and chuckled.
Miyuki Shiba nodded in agreement. That was indeed what she thought, and she didn't intend to hide her thoughts from her brother and Yunyi.
"Actually, you don't need to think about those things. Because it's impossible now. Even I don't have a way to travel through time. Once you miss that opportunity, there's no point in trying to do it again."
"Alright, let's not talk about the past. Let's talk about the present. Tatsuya, you just said that the ' Material Burst ' caused trouble?" Yunyi changed the subject.
Tatsuya Shiba nodded, cautiously replying, "After casting the spell, I had a feeling of unease. It wasn't until you appeared that I realized I had indeed caused trouble. Yunyi, can you tell me what happened? Is there someone important to you in the US fleet?"
Yunyi shook his head. "The people who are important to me are not on the US warship. However, the plane they were on was caught in the aftershocks of the ' Material Burst ' and crashed into the sea."
Yunyi stopped there. He didn't intend to continue, as it wouldn't benefit him.
But his words immediately put Tatsuya Shiba on guard. His hand was already on the CAD at his waist, ready to activate the magic at any moment. Moreover, the " Artificial Calculation Area " was also ready, and as soon as Yunyi made any move, he would activate " Gram Dispersion " to completely annihilate Yunyi.
"Remember when I told you and Lina that if you pulled the trigger, we would become enemies forever? Even though you didn't point the trigger at me, the result was no different from an attack on me directly. So, Tatsuya, from that moment on, we are enemies."
As soon as Yunyi finished Kanon, he got up and walked towards Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba.
Tatsuya Shiba cautiously watched Yunyi, having already drawn his CAD and aimed it at Yunyi. However, Yunyi had already activated his domain before arriving. After severing the connection between Tatsuya Shiba and Psions, his magic was completely unable to be activated.
Approaching the brother and sister, Yunyi raised his hand and pointed it at Miyuki Shiba.
"Before we fight, let me remind you of what it feels like to lose someone important," Yunyi said with a smile.
" Miyuki, run!" Tatsuya Shiba pulled the trigger, but his " Gram Dispersion " failed to activate. At this moment, Tatsuya Shiba realized that Yunyi was chatting with the two siblings here because she was completely fearless!
Discarding the CAD file, Tatsuya Shiba raised his leg and kicked Yunyi in the head. Knowing Yunyi as he did, he knew this kick wouldn't pose any threat. But in the current situation, he only wanted to force Yunyi back, creating an opportunity for Miyuki to escape.
But his foot had barely kicked out before it froze in place, not even fully extended.
Tatsuya Shiba, frozen in place by the magic, was extremely anxious. He wanted to speak, but found that he couldn't even do something as simple as speaking.
Yunyi's finger touched Miyuki Shiba 'Miyuki Shiba chest, causing her pupils to shrink. But before she could react, a tremendous force was transmitted through Yunyi's hand to her body, pushing her off the roof.
The moment her body was airborne, Miyuki Shiba immediately pulled out her CAD, intending to cast Flight Magic. However, being within the realm of the " Fool's World," her magic was destined to fail before it even began.
