A/N Mercy and her deck were made by Royal2, thanks again dude and thanks to Rom as ever!

Arcadia

Euridice sat in her office within Arcadia as she saw live footage of the tournament, up tomorrow was Mercy, a former Arcadia student vs Minerva, the duelist with abilities to make people see their worst fears.

The office was dark and dim as a bookcase begun to slide across. Divine, Euridice's brother was walking out. Divine was still presumed dead from everyone except Euridice, not even Aki knew.

"So still not made Arcadia's move?" Divine said.

"Of course we have…. the two are left after Ran got knocked out from the tournament. We now have the number of students ready to assault this world… we just need more time for their powers to be as good as they can be. With Raito and Minerva causing some small mayhem along the way, it's a fact one of them will duel Aki in the final match."

"Then Aracadia would use that duel as a weapon…. good plan." Divine said. "And Aki?"

"None of the wiser that you're alive of course…. it's better that she lets the rage burn."

"When that boy "killed" me… Security dumped my body on your doorstep to scare you… soon this whole world will kneel to Physic Duelists." Divine said.

"And what about these other worlds?" Euridice said.

"Ignore them; I have no interest in them." Divine said.

Security

Inside Roget's office he looked on over his workers. He then moved a chess piece on the board he had seated next to the seat.

"This is not how I expected to win this game but… needs must…." Roget said. "Connect me to….. Arcadia." Roget looked in disgust.

Ruka – Commons

"Okay, we're done!" said a member of the Revolutionaries, the group who had worked with Ruka had now dug a tunnel which would lead them underground. They however left the last bit still standing to avoid alerting the guards until they raided it.

"Good and now we have to save them." said Ruka in response. "But now we need a plan."

Ruka Home – Garage

"Okay, now put the wire in there… and we should be done." Rin said to Yugo as he put in the Accel Synchro device into Ringo, their D-Wheel.

"I could've read that…." Yugo replied.

"Not when you wasted hours reading it backwards! I wouldn't be surprised next time if you read the German instructions…!"

Rin and Yugo looked at with delight as Ringo had finally been installed with the Accel Synchro software.

"Yes and now nothing will stop me from winning the Friendship Cup!" Yugo said.

"Well… maybe me…" Rin said.

"You can't beat me, you know that Rin!" Yugo replied.

"I've beaten you for the last five times…."

"That doesn't count of course! It was a while ago!"

"I think it would not be a good time for you two to discuss this." Rin's spirit Callistissaid. "Anyway… now you have the machine capable of using the power…. it's time you learnt how to use Accel Synchro."

"About time!" Yugo said.

"As I said before, the power can be pre-dated back to our world… the original world… Linette was quite good with it… so in theory Rin, this should be quite easy to master."

"And Clear Wing?" Yugo said.

"Well…. he was like you… it took him a bit more time…."

"So what's involved?" Rin said.

"To summon such a strong Synchro Monster, you need to connect with your Monsters…. you need a clear mind."

"Clear mind?" Rin said.

"A state of being totally focused, a mind void of any doubt.. fear, anything."

"Like Yugo's head?" Rin said with a humoured tone.

"Yeah… wait!"

"Anyway, that's just a part of it… you need to feel the speed… you must be one with your Monster."

"For you Yugo…. you're… unique style of mind will help as you're fully determined non-stop!"

"Wait… so am I?!" Rin said.

"Of course but you Rin, you put all that reasonability on your shoulders. While Yugo does as well… he acts before thinking while you're different, thinking rather than acting… that's not good enough to handle a clear mind."

"I will do it! I know I can!" Rin replied.

"Once you do… you will unlock the cards."

"And me?" Yugo said.

"Yes… Clear Wing can also… maybe it's a step closer to reminding Clear Wing of the happier times…. well, before he went crazy."

"Fine.. anyway we need to make sure Ringo rides properly." Yugo said as they opened up the garage door. "What?! It's night already?!"

Mina

"Now isn't that better?!" Mina said to Dennis who had his duel disk locked to his wrist. Mina's mind-controlled officers guarded the area as Mina smirked.

"Get this off me!" Dennis said.

"I've just placed a bomb in it and if you try and take it off, you'll go boom…. what's wrong with that?"

"What do you want from me?!" Dennis added.

"I put a bomb on Marina's duel disk… but that was a safety measure in case she went behind my back… with you I need something different, I need you to go back to Roget! And make him still believe you're under his control!"

"You're a disgrace to Academia."

"I don't care; I really really don't….." Mina said. "I still wish to experiment on the angels and dragons but I'll get to that point. Now go… if you value your arm! Boys, take him back!"

The officers entered the room and handcuffed Dennis as they dragged him away. Mina smirked as they exited.

Security

The officers had returned Dennis to his office as Dennis tried to keep as blank-faced as possible.

"So you finally returned? Why was your chip reading as not online?" Roget said. "Where did you go?" Roget's computer had the chip back online as Mina reattached it to Dennis's inner-ear.

"I was taken away by officers but we were kidnapped by Commons." said Dennis; he was doing his best to show he had no emotions.

"Fine…. why come back now?"

"We only just escaped…..!" Dennis said, trying his best not to sweat.

"Okay fine. Anyway, I have a job for you. Downstairs I have an old friend of yours… the Palaldin of Academia… Marina."

"Marina?" Dennis said shocked.

"Yes, I need you to remove her… permanently. She only wishes to die via a carding but…. we will do more… old-fashioned means." Dennis looked shock but he knew he had to maintain the image of him still being controlled.

"Why can't you do this yourself?" Dennis said.

"Excuse me? Maybe the chip is damaged…. regardless….She preferred a more noble death by my hands, but I m not going to give her that pleasure…That's why you are here…"

"How…. how should I do it?!"

"This explosive. It's a sealed cell, no-one will know." Roget gave Dennis a small device as he smirked.

Minutes Later

"Kill Marina… how do I get out of this one?" Dennis thought as he walked down a corridor with officers beside him. These ones were not under Mina's control.

"Right here." said a guard as inside a cell within another of Security's towers showed Marina's hands tied up with chains and her head was down.

Marina's duel disk had been placed out of reach on a shelf and Marina continued to look down as the guards opened the door.

"Place the bomb and kill her." said one of the guards as they both left Dennis alone.

"I knew you would come here…" Marina said. "No matter whose puppet you are…" Marina's duel disk bleeped as Dennis looked at the girl.

….

Somewhere within the stadium Serena was using the hacking mode on Marina's duel disk to find its location.

"Another Security HQ? I bet Yuri could be close by… why did his duel disk have to get broken?" Serena questioned.

Serena continued to use her training to activate a protocol within the duel disk.

"Now!" Serena hit a green button.

….

"Marina are you there?" said Serena on the duel disk. Dennis turned around.

"About time…" Marina said. "I'm here with Dennis… we need help."

"We?" Dennis said.

"I see you have a small addition on your duel disk, Mina got to you after I beat you."

"What?! Yes… my chip was knocked out of my head and I was freed… Mina sent me here acting as if I was still controlled." Dennis replied as he took the chip out from his ear.

"Okay good, we can deal with that witch later, now we need to remove these bombs on our duel disks." Marina said.

"Won't Mina be listening?"

"No, she's busy with something else." Dennis said.

"Good, now let's use this time we got now. I can remove the bombs, I just a few minutes…."

….

"Run, run run!" Marina said as she and Dennis ran out of the HQ tower which was now partly on fire.

Marina and Dennis had set off the bombs and Marina now wore Security outfits which they had found nearby to disguise themselves.

Tops – Warehouse

Serena and Marina as well as Dennis had reunited with each other.

"Thank you for freeing me." Dennis said. "Finally I'm back where I belong."

"Yes and now we need to find Yuri." Serena said.

"As the Professor's right hand man, I shall take charge from here on in." Dennis said.

"I would love to follow your orders but you do not know much about the situation in Synchro and I do not think you have a plan to try to get out of this situation." Marina commented while uncovering Dennis' dueling disc.

"I am Leo Akaba right hand!" Dennis gloated and Serena and her companion rolled their eyes.

"Your skills as spies are more exceptional than your ability to lead so to speak, that's why it's better to keep Roget thinking that you are still under his control."

"Strong words from a Commander talking to someone with a degree such as mine."

"Well, the Commander who led the forces in Ritual with success and the one who led a battalion in XYZ with equal success in addition to the person who saved your butt." said Serena.

"Anyway how can I…. the CCTV was recording all." Dennis said.

"I hacked the tapes; I edited it to show that you never appeared… and that Marina is now presumed dead." Serena said.

"And how do we get around the fact that Mina has a live feed of Marina's duel disk? She can see where we're going?" Dennis said.

"For a right-hand man, you don't know a lot about field work." Serena said. Marina got out some blank cards.

"We use these to communicate." Marina said. "These are for when Academia wish not to alert anyone"

"So I need to go back as undercover with Roget…. I hate this….!" Dennis said.

"Meanwhile me and Marina will try and build a new duel disk for her to avoid Mina." Serena said.

"Wait what?" Marina said.

"There's some junkyard nearby, Mina created the duel disks but I'm sure we could suss out how to make you a new one." Serena said.

"You wish to create one?!" Marina said.

"Oh.. sorry for speaking out of turn." Serena said.

"No, it's a good idea." Marina said. "Now Dennis, time for you to get back to Roget!"

"Yay me…." he said while sighing.

Ruka Home

Shun, Yuzu, Yuya along with Mercy returned home. They could not find Ruka or Mina anywhere.

"So… where is Mina?! Ruka is helping the people from underground but…. where's Mina?" Yuzu said.

"I have no idea?" Yuya said. "Did she step out for air?"

"Must have." Yuzu said. "Wait.. Rin and Yugo?! They duel tomorrow?!"

"I guess they're preparing their D-Wheel." Mercy said.

Garage

"Okay so it drives just fine." Yugo said.

"But… is it fast enough?" Rin said.

"Of course it is! Ringo is in the room, don't hurt its feelings!"

"It's a machine!" Rin said.

"We didn't know Monsters had souls… how about a D-Wheel world?! What if Ringo is a version of some ancient bike devil-lord?!"

"To be honest, with everything that happened to us I would believe that." Rin said. As they spoke Yuzu and Yuya could see Rin and Yugo working and they decided not to interfere with them.

"Anyway!" Rin walked off and quickly hit a toolbox which made her fall to the floor. "YUGO!"

"Rin, that's our only toolbox!" Yugo said.

"How can I achieve Clear Mind with you always messing up?!" Rin yelled. As Rin got up, her jacket had fallen down slighty and as Yugo looked he quickly turned back. "Damnit!" Rin yelled.

"I think we better leave them….!" Yuya said.

"Yeah, probably for the best." Yuzu said as Rin begun to rant at Yugo again. As Yuzu and Yuya walked away, Pendulum Warrior appeared and entered the room. "Not now Warrior!"

"Warrior?!" said Rin.

"You know you shouldn't hurt Yugo, he is your future husband you know!" Warrior said. Yuzu and Yuya entered the room.

"Sorry Rin…." Yuzu said

"Yugo is not stupid he is loveable." Warrior continued to lecture. "Also who is the person who is always by your side when you need him most? If it were you, I would value him more." Warrior patted Yugo head while he was blushing.

"He's not my future husband or anything!" Rin yelled. "Yuzu get your spirit under control…."

"Not even Ciel can control her…." Yuzu said.

"Maybe my Magicians could drag her away!" Yuya joked.

"Come on, all of you guys, they'll all end up together, although I know you'll declare first Rin, since you're the most mature on that." Warrior continued.

"You really need to learn boundaries!" Yuzu said, annoyed.

""And you should learn to clarify your feelings gorilla girl, because someone going to take your tomato soon."

"You requested us Master Yuya?" Time said as he appeared along with Stargazer.

"Oh erm, I didn't know you would actually come out?!" Yuya said.

"Is this brat annoying you?" Time added.

"Typical." Star said.

"Wait!" Callistis said who appeared. "Warrior is only trying to help."

"We didn't ask for you, angel slave!"

"Angel slave?! That's a very rude insult!" Callistis who tried to remain ever polite said.

"Yeah, that's what insults are!" Time said back to his brother.

"Oh great another spirit fight…." Yuzu said. Before she could speak Mozarta appeared and hit Warrior.

"You know Time, you should not get into other people's conversations especially on a topic like this that you're afraid of."

The sorcerer in Stargazed blushed when Warrior watched her with her macabre smile.

"Or I'll have to talk about your failed romances with those guys."

"Shut it!" Time added.

"You know Mozarta has a crush on you Star, she likes older Magicians and is a huge fan of your skills!" Warrior said, Mozarta glowed red and looked annoyed at Warrior. "Yeah, what are you going to do about it?" Warrior said. Mozarta grabbed her ear and dragged her back into Yuzu's deck. "You ruin all the fun! Why does Callistis never talk about her love life!"

"I don't think it's your business!" Ciel's voice could be heard from the deck as she was dragged in.

"So you have a love Brother." Time said.

"I'm too old for this." Star faded away with Time and Callistis.

Later

"I just got off the phone to Ruka and she hasn't seen Mina." Mercy said who walked into Ruka's main room where the others were.

"Damn… it's getting late." Yuzu said.

"I guess she's with Roget perhaps?" Yuya said. "We know Roget is a snake but Mina seems to trust him…"

"Well as long as she is safe." Yuzu replied. "She'll be here tomorrow I expect."

"Yeah… tomorrow…" Mercy said as she gripped her hands.

"You'll beat Minerva, no worries!" Yuya said.

"Yeah with your powers, you should be more then safe from any mind games she starts to play." Rin said.

"With Raito and Minerva still in… and Aki waiting for the winner… Arcadia is still at full strength…." Mercy added. "Arcadia is preparing something but no-one will believe it as Aki stops Commons from winning the tournament and becoming Tops. They also believe Arcadia will stop any revolts…. hence why Security hate them for replacing them."

"Look Mercy, you're hope for Physic Duelists is what Arcadia should be and it will be once we change the ways of this world. We need to continue in this tournament and win it to show that Arcadia aren't the way forward… we need to stop Roget but we know that will take a bit longer." Yuzu said.

"We know we can solve it all." Yuya said. "So don't give up hope Mercy!"

"Also remember the Entertainment Duels! They can help change this world!" Yuzu said.

"Well… I did enjoy my duel with Shingo…." Mercy said. "I will try it! However Minerva is firmly on Euridice's side… she won't change."

"Then we have to take her out of the tournament." Rin said. "You have to win."

Tournament

"Callistis, attack Turbo Booster!" Rin's spirit launched down a quick breeze of wind and ice which hit a yellow machine Monster. It was sliced in half as her opponent, a male with orange, bushy long hair.

Rally LP: 500 – 0 Rin Wins

"And there we go! Rin is through to the final eight! Her opponent Rally put up a good fight but he is heading underground!" Mellissa Claire said to the stadium.

"I failed…" Rally said as he looked at Rin who came to shake his hand. "Sorry Shinji…." he said while grabbing the dirt beneath his fingers.

"Look Rally, I know you're a Common as well… we can win over Tops as well as Commons… we don't need a revolution… I thought the same as well but there's a better way." Rin added.

"Better way? They've made our lives miserable!" Rally said.

"Look, we're working on a way to get people out from underground, just please, trust me." she whispered.

"Okay time to go." the guards said as they grabbed Rally and pulled him away, he looked at Rin as she could only nod back; she was begging Rally to trust her. Rin looked down at her wrist dealer which had her cards.

"I have to keep winning… to get Accel Synchro… I felt nothing during that duel, I guess I have a long way to go." Rin thought.

Tunnel

Mercy placed her helmet on as Yuzu was with her to wish her luck. Minerva walked in with her D-Wheel outfit on. She smirked.

"Mercy…." Minerva said.

"You won't get away with any of this!" Mercy said.

"We will, Physic Duelists will rule this world…. and you… pink girl, we know you come from another world… why don't you go back to it and mind your own business!"

"This world is under threat by Academia! A much bigger threat then your school can ever be!" Yuzu hit back.

"We shall see about that." Minerva replied with a cocky attitude. "Ran already got sent underground…. I will avenge her!"

"Ran seemed to change her heart after she lost! Something you lack, a heart!"

"Cute…. now are you going to duel or just talk like a traitor?" Minerva said.

"Mercy, don't let her get into your head." Yuzu said.

"I don't need to waste my powers on a waster… too think someone with the powers to heal turned out to be you!"

Duel

"Let's duel!" both Mercy and Minerva yelled as they begun the duel on their D-Wheels.

"I shall start first!" Mercy said.

Turn 1

Mercy LP: 4000 Hand: 5

Minerva LP: 4000 Hand: 5

"I'll go first!" Mercy declared."I'll start by summoning Skeleton Knight Foot Soldier!"

Skeleton Knight Foot Soldier ATK: 0 DEF: 0 Zombie/Dark/LVL 1

"With this card I can send a Skeleton Knight Monster to my graveyard from my deck except Foot Solider. I send Skeleton Knight Horseman to the graveyard and via Foot Soldier, I can draw a card! Next I use Skeleton Knight Reaper's effect! I can destroy Foot Solider to Special Summon Reaper!" Foot Solider disappeared and a reaper made of bones appeared.

Skeleton Knight Reaper ATK: 2100 DEF: 1000 Zombie/Dark/LVL 5

"Next I play the Spell Monster Gate! I tribute Reaper to thenI can excavate cards from the top of my deck until I can get a monster that can be Normal Summoned!" Reaper disappeared as Mercy sent two cards to her graveyard until she drew her third card, it was Skeleton Knight Shield-Men. "I summon level three Shield-Men!"

Skeleton Knight Shield-Men ATK: 0 DEF: 0 Zombie/Darker/Tuner/LVL 1

"Now I play the Spell Cursed Sword! I destroy Shield-Men and I draw a card! Next up is the fun part! When a Skeleton Knight is destroyed, I can summon Reaper, Horseman and Skelton knight Duel Sword-Men which I sent to the grave via Monster Gate!"

"Already?!" Minerva said with actual shock as Mercy's gained three of her Zombie Monsters on the field.

Skeleton Knight Reaper ATK: 2100 DEF: 1000 Zombie/Dark/LVL 5

Skeleton Knight Duel Sword-Men ATK: 2500 DEF: 2000 Zombie/Dark/LVL 7

"Horseman's effect when summoned the same way allows me to draw a card and double its level!" Mercy drew from her deck.

Horseman LVL: 4

"I tune Horseman with my Token!" Horseman became green rings as the Token followed through.

4+3=7

"I Synchro Summon, level seven,"I Synchro Summon level seven,Skeleton Knight Commander!" A skeleton in a red cape appeared.

Skeleton Knight Commander ATK: 2500 DEF: 1200 Zombie/Dark/Synchro/LVL 7

"I set two cards and end my turn!" The crowd all cheered for Mercy following her good first turn. She smiled at the reaction.

"She's doing it!" Yuzu said.

"Yeah, the crowd are on her side!" Yuya added.

Turn 2

Mercy LP: 4000 Hand: 2

Minerva LP: 4000 Hand: 5

"I draw!" Minerva said. "Guess I need to use my power after all… the traitor is going at me with everything she has…" she thought.

"Bring it on." Mercy thought in her mind.

"I play the Spell Emergency Teleport which allows me to bring out a level three or lower Physic Monster from my deck! AppearPsychic Commander!"

Psychic Commander ATK: 1400 DEF: 800 Earth/Psychic/LVL 3/Tuner

"I summonPsychic Snail!" A giant blue and orange snail emerged onto the field.

Psychic Snail ATK: 1900 DEF: DEF: 1200 Earth/Psychic/LVL 4

"What on earth is that ugly thing?" Yuzu said in the crowd.

"I play the Spell Double Summon which lets me Normal Summon once more! I summon Dr. Frankenderp!" A human with half a purple face and a robot hand on the same side appeared. He wore a lab coat.

Dr. Frankenderp ATK: 300 DEF: 300 Dark/Psychic/LVL 3

"I use Frnakenderp's effect! I pay 500 lifepoints to look at my next card in my deck and either add it to my hand at the cost of skipping my next Draw Phase or putting it on the bottom!"

Minerva LP: 4000 – 3500

"Good job I checked, this is useless!" Minerva said as she placed a high level Monster to the bottom of her deck.

"You really don't care about your Monsters, do you?!"

"They're tools for war! I tune Frankenderp withPsychic Commander!"

3+3=6

"I Synchro SummonHTS Psyhemuth!" A robotic dog appeared with crystals around its body.

HTS Pshemuth ATK: 2400 DEF: 1800 Earth/Psychich/Synchro/LVL 6

"Now Mercy!" Minerva looked back at Mercy as her eyes glowed.

"No you won't!" Mercy said.

"It's too late! You might have been able to become immune to my powers had you stayed traitor!" Mercy's sight went fuzzy as she tried to keep on.

"No! She's using her powers again!" Yuya said.

"Dirty cheat!" Yuzu added.

"I will just ignore the visions then! You might be able to tap into my fears… but I won't let that make me lose!" Mercy replied. "I play my Trap! Skeleton Knight Curse Field! All non-Skeleton Knights lose 500 attack!"

Pshemuth ATK: 1900

Snail ATK: 1400

Mercy begun to hear boos come from the crowd, she looked around and saw the people standing up and chanting at her.

"ARCADIA SCUM!"

"FREAK!"
"NO-ONE LIKES YOU!"

"No.. this is just her powers!" Mercy said to herself. There on the side she could see her friend Ruka even though she wasn't in the stadium.

"Mercy! I regret saving you! You're a disgrace! Arcadia SCUM!" Ruka yelled.

"Ruka?" Mercy was looking at the crowd and nearly hit the side of the track but she managed to spot this in time and pull her D-Wheel away.

"No Mercy…" Yuzu said. "Ciel, are you there?" Yuzu thought as Ciel was able to appear.

"I know what you're thinking." Ciel said.

"Can't you use some magic or something?" Yuzu said.

"Well…. I don't know… if it went wrong… we could hurt Mercy more."

"There has to be something?" Yuzu said.

"I don't know Yuzu; I don't want to risk it… I don't know if the power has changed something within her mind like a drug or…."

"Fine…" Yuzu said despite still wanting to do something.

"I equip Physic Blade to HTS!" The hound's crystals grew bigger, almost like a spear on its back. "I pay lifepoints in amounts of 100 to increase HTS' attack! I pay a maximum of 2000 so it gains 2000 attack!"

Minerva ATK: 3500 – 1500

HTS ATK: 3900

"What?!" Mercy yelled.

"HTS Pshemuthm, destroy Skeleton Knight Duel-Swords Men!" The hound charged forward and slammed into the Monster. Mercy felt the hit and that along with her visions made her scream in pain as it was destroyed.

Mercy LP: 4000 – 2600

"Snail's effect! I pay 800 lifepoints to allow my HTS to attack again!"

Minerva LP: 1500 – 700

"No! I must be able to do something but I… I can't remember what I set face-down… my head hurts!" Mercy thought. HTS hit Commander as it was blasted away.

Mercy LP: 2600 – 1200

"Next I play the Quick-Play SpellEmergency Provisions! I send my Equip Card to the graveyard to gain 1000 lifepoints!" Sword was removed and HTS returned to its normal attack.

HTS ATK: 2400

Minerva LP 700 – 1700

"No!" Yuzu yelled.

"I use Snail's effect once more!" HTS destroyed the final Monster in Reaper.

Minerva LP: 1700 – 900

"Once more!"

Minerva LP: 900 - 100

"I… failed…" Mercy said as she collapsed onto her D-Wheel as HTS slammed into her directly, sending her crashing across the track.

Mercy LP: 900 – 0 Minerva Wins

"No!" the whole group yelled as they tried to get onto the track but guards blocked their way.

"Mercy!" Yuzu yelled.

Minerva walked over to her, Mercy was knocked out.

"Can't heal yourself if you're not awake!" Minerva laughed. "Enjoy the pain… TRAITOR!"

"That girl….!" Yuzu said in rage.

"Yeah!" Yuya said as he eyes begun to glow.

"Yuzu!" Warrior appeared as he pointed at Yuya.

"Yuya now's not the time!" Yuzu added.

"That witch… I shall…. NO!" Yuya yelled as he snapped back to normal.

"Phew…." Warrior sighed.

"I will tell Ruka what's happened." Yuzu said as she got out her pink duel disk and tried to phone Ruka.

On the track the crowd all yelled for Minerva.

"Give us more! We want blood!"

"Oh…. is that so?" Minerva said. Minerva went over and begun to kick her in the leg, the crowd roared.

"NO!" Yuzu and Yuya yelled as Shun could only grit his teeth.

"This world…. is sick!" Shun yelled. Minerva saw the Lancers and winked as she walked off.

"Minerva! I WILL BEAT YOU!" Yuya yelled.

In the tunnel Yugo saw all as he was with Rin.

"No…. Mercy…. I have that Raito next… I'll…. kill him!" Yugo's eyes lit up in green as Rin still looked on in shock.

Security

"Sir, we have a response from Arcadia." said a worker. Roget looked at the screen as Euridice appeared.

"Mr Roget? What a surprise." Euridice said.

"Let's cut the stupid talk… Academia will eventually be here in Synchro, we must team up."

"I'm not sure if I should laugh or laugh even harder? You… come begging to me?!" Roget gritted his teeth but then smirked.

"Fine… if that would change your mind….Mikage!" A blank-faced councilmember Mikage come into the room and onto the screen. "One of the council is now under my control…. I could easily change the council's view on Arcadia now…. so… what do you say?" Roget grinned as Euridice looked on with anger.
