Warning: Wrong grammars and typos

It's raining heavily outside. The legendary bladers were bored and having nothing else to do they just sprawled on their back on the cold floor inside the training room. They may have been heroes that saved the world from the clutches of evil aka Nemesis, but in the end they're still children. In the dead of silence, King started to shout, giving everyone a mini-heart attack.

"Aargh! When will this rain stop?! I'm bored!" Means that he will either pull pranks on the others or just going to continue to whine until everybody's ears bleed. It could also trigger Tithi to join in the whining chorus so leaving him on this state is a bad idea. I repeat, Bad Idea.

Ginga stares at the other more-rational-minded bladers in desperation. 'Quick, anyone! Do something before we die!' Is what written on his face. They begin to think of a way to undo this curse before it's too late. Then suddenly a light bulb appeared on a certain scientist head. "I… Actually, have an idea." The others turned their head to him, including King. "What is it?" Asked the Ares blader. Yuuki changed his position to sit. That's when they realized that there is a little smirk formed on his lips, that's new, they thought. "It's just a little quiz."

"Oh, that? No thanks." King went back to sprawl on the floor. Kenta who was laying on his back beside him can only sweatdrop. "What? Why? I thought you want something to do?" The little scientist complained. "Yuuki, thanks for your effort. But we don't really want to do any quiz related to physics and their question of 'If someone fell off the WBBA building, how long will it take them to reach the surface' kind of quiz." Ginga sighed in exhaustion. Yuuki tried to process what the Pegasis wielder just said, then when he connected the dots, he made an O with his mouth. "Well, that hurts me Ginga-san. But I can assure you that my quiz this time doesn't include that kind of thing, much less, logic." This statement made the others intrigued. "Oh, then what is it?" Chris asked as he sat up, the others followed him but King who's still not convinced. Yuuki smiled at his friends. "Well, I'm glad you asked Chris-san. This quiz is actually simple, but it requires some thinking, because—well, it's a quiz. Also, if you realize how this quiz works, you might want to call yourself as the stupidest person on earth because that's how I feel the first time too."

It's a challenge then.

King—convinced enough, decided to change his position again. "Alright then! I'll show you that I'm a number one in everything including this—whatever kind of quiz is this!" He grinned. "Well, seems like there's no one objecting. Guess we'll give it a shot." Aguma said, the others nodded at his words. Yuuki clasped his hands so their attention turns to him.

"Alright! First thing first! I'm going to give you the keywords and I want you to just get along with whatever keywords it is and throw every logic out of the window, okay?" He announced the sacred rule of the game first. After the little scientist got the sign of approval from his friends, he begins.

"Here are the keywords: 'The earth is round, 1 = 0 and 0 = 1', you get it?" They nodded, so he continued. "Now, how much is 1 + 1?"

They pondered for a bit, Dynamis is the first one to answer. "0?"

"Correct!"
Kyoya stared at both Yuuki and Dynamis ridiculously. "What? How come 1 + 1 becomes 0?" Yuuki chuckled at his question. "Well, Kyoya-san, didn't I tell you to just get along with whatever the keywords are, right? You don't need logic to answer this, just simply… Think." The Anubis wielder smirked at the last word, as if he enjoys the suffering of his comrades. "Okay, I'm going to give you another one.

"The earth is round, 1 = 0 and 0 = 1. How much is 0 + 0?"

They simultaneously answered. "2!"

Yuuki clapped his hands. "Congratulations! All of you are correct! Now, shall we advance to an intermediate level?" The legendary bladers braced themselves. Little do they know, Yuuki is grinning evilly inside his mind.

"The earth is round, 1 = 0 and 0 = 1. How much is 1 + 3?"

Legendary-bladers dot exe has stopped working.

"Wait, what? 3? Where does that even come from?" Ginga raised his hand in confusion. This time, Yuuki just shrug his shoulders. "Well, I don't know? So, what is your answer?"

Tithi was the first one to answer. "3?" Yuuki crossed his hands in front of his face, forming an X. "Nope, wrong, try again." They begin to think hard. "1?" Aguma guessed. Yuuki shook his head. "Try again."

"4?"

"Nope."

"2?"

"Nuh-uh."

"…Aargh! I don't know! Just tell us the answer already!" King scratched his head in frustration. Yuuki smirked playfully at them. "So, everybody give up?" They nodded in unison. "It's 0."

Kyoya pinched the bridge of his nose while murmured something that nobody could comprehend. "0? Where does it even came from?" Tithi turned his head sideway, clearly confused. Yuuki exhaled slowly, he pointed his index finger upward. "Listen, I told you to just get along with the keywords, this quiz has their own logic, and that is the keywords. The keywords. Are. Absolute. Okay? Throw all of the logic such as 1 + 1 = 2 as far away as you can.

"Let's restart this alright? The earth is round, 1 = 0 and 0 = 1. How much is 1 + 1?"

"0."

"The earth is round, 1 = 0 and 0 = 1. How much is 0 + 0?"

"2."

Now, "The earth is round, 1 = 0 and 0 = 1. How much is 68 + 2?"

Error 404. Page not found.

Yuuki glanced at the window and saw that the rain has started to die down. "Oh, the rain is letting up! I want to buy something outside, so I guess I'll have to answer that question myself. It's 3. See you later guys!" Then he left the room without a second look. The rest of the legendary bladers stared at the door where the little scientist was last seen. Only one word that slip out of King's mouth in the sudden silence.

"What?"

To Be Continued…?

Kurooba: Or should I say something that was made in the middle of exam week. I had a flu and studying only worsen my condition, so here it is. Something to relieve my stress. Tell me in the review section if you know how to solve this little quiz~

Also, the reason as to why I used '1 + 1' instead of 'one plus one' is just so it'll be easier for you guys to understand the trick.
