In Yunyi's mind, if Tatsuya Shiba couldn't be used by him, then he had to be eliminated. He was an existence completely beyond the scope of this world. If one wanted to establish a new order in this world, Tatsuya Shiba's existence was a problem. Even if he himself didn't have such intentions, that was still the case.
Compared to Tatsuya Shiba, Yunyi is also outside the established order. However, the biggest difference between the two is that Yunyi's abilities are almost impossible to pass on to the next generation through genetic inheritance. Tatsuya Shiba's abilities, combined with Miyuki Shiba, a cyborg specially tailored for him, might be able to be passed on to the next generation. If so, even if Yunyi can establish a new order during his lifetime, this order might be overthrown after his death using this power.
Therefore, after Mayumi Saegusa suggested trying again to win over Tatsuya Shiba and Miyuki Shiba, Yunyi agreed to her suggestion after only a little consideration. Moreover, in his opinion, exchanging a Japan for Tatsuya Shiba was a worthwhile deal.
Before this meeting, Yunyi and Mayumi Saegusa had already discussed some details. During the meeting, Yunyi acted as the one creating pressure, while Mayumi Saegusa offered timely words of advice and gave the other party some hope. The two worked together to try to persuade Tatsuya Shiba, or rather Miyuki Shiba, in order to achieve their goal of winning him over.
" Tatsuya, Miyuki, and Ichijo, you should know that I have left the Saegusa Family. But I was once a member of the Ten Master Clans. Although I am now Yunyi-kun's girlfriend, I don't want to see my country ravaged by war. But you also know that this war was entirely started by the Japan military. And what they rely on is the wartime conscription regulations for their own country's magicians."
At this point, Mayumi Saegusa paused slightly before continuing, "Personally, I cannot accept such unreasonable and barbaric conscription regulations. I don't believe that a mage's ultimate destiny must be to go to the battlefield. That's why, after learning about Yunyi-kun's identity and his ideals, I resolutely chose to go with him."
"The current war, in the end, is simply caused by the arrogance of the military's high command. Without the support of mages, even if they have ambitions, they cannot put them into practice. Of course, it is not just the Japan military that has such ambitions. Most countries in the world, as long as they possess powerful mages, will have such ambitions to some extent. And it is precisely for this reason that a new order is indispensable for the world today."
" Tatsuya- kun, I've learned a lot about you and Miyuki from Yunyi-kun. The power you possess shouldn't become a weapon in someone else's hands, threatening the world's stability. I want to invite you to join us and become the founders of a new order. Together, let's become a force that balances the world's conflicts."
Upon hearing Mayumi Saegusa's words, Tatsuya Shiba showed a hint of surprise. Miyuki Shiba and Masaki Ichijo, on the other hand, looked utterly dumbfounded.
"Chairman, do you think the new order you're talking about can be successfully established?" Tatsuya Shiba asked bluntly.
"I believe it's possible," Mayumi Saegusa replied firmly.
"But what should we do? Even if we can establish a force, how can we implement the new order we hope to build?" Miyuki Shiba asked.
"War." However, the one who answered Miyuki Shiba's question was Masaki Ichijo, who was sitting next to her.
This guy is a bit love-struck, but he's not stupid. He listened to the previous conversation while analyzing it in his mind, and the final conclusion he came to was war.
Of course, the war he was referring to was not one instigated by this newly established power, but rather one in which they intervened to check and balance wars that had already occurred or were about to occur.
"If the force that Saegusa speaks of is successfully established, it will become a check and balance for all countries in the world. And the so-called new order, in the final analysis, is just to help mages gain a freer status. So when war breaks out, if any force adopts the same conscription regulations as the Japan military to force mages to participate in the war, then that force will have a reason to intervene in the war. But Saegusa, do you really think that such an organization can achieve the strength required?" Masaki Ichijo's question was very straightforward. He did not believe that such a powerful organization could be established so easily.
"Okay." That was Tatsuya Shiba's response to Masaki Ichijo's reply.
Hearing his resolute answer, Masaki Ichijo was stunned. However, Tatsuya Shiba did not intend to elaborate further, but instead began to mentally calculate the feasibility of doing so.
In Tatsuya Shiba's view, the power Yunyi wanted to establish could be built entirely by himself. After all, with him around, all the mages who opposed him were no different from ordinary people. Moreover, Yunyi had now revealed his control over the Great Asian Alliance Military. Combining these two points, the power Yunyi led was enough to become a neutral check and balance. Tatsuya Shiba also understood why Yun Yi had invited him. His magic was a threat to this new order.
If possible, Tatsuya Shiba truly didn't want to be enemies with Yunyi. He understood Yunyi; if things escalated to a point of no return, Yunyi would inevitably eliminate him completely. At that point, Miyuki...
With this in mind, Tatsuya Shiba made his decision. But for now, he couldn't accept Yunyi's invitation, because he still had things to deal with.
" Yunyi, I will carefully consider your suggestion. But before I reply, could you please stop your actions that promote war? You should know that, in some ways, Miyuki and I also have our own difficulties."
Hearing Tatsuya Shiba say this, Yunyi was somewhat surprised. But thinking about it carefully, it seemed that this was the only path left for Tatsuya Shiba. After all, this guy couldn't possibly disregard Miyuki's safety.
"Sure, I can give you three days to consider. But Tatsuya, let me make this clear beforehand: if the Japan military does anything inappropriate, I won't keep my promise. Don't blame me then."
"I understand," Tatsuya Shiba replied.
Having received Yunyi's promise, Tatsuya Shiba immediately stood up. The Ten Master Clans were waiting for the results of their meeting with Yunyi. Now that they had the results, they naturally needed to return and report as soon as possible.
