"Speak," Xu Yang said.
"What a coincidence, this isn't the first time we've faced each other. It's been almost fifteen years, and we've both been through so much. Without the Seven Witches Ritual you provided, I would have been dead long ago and not as youthful as I am now. And you've become the 'leader' of this world, how interesting. Who could have thought that a down-and-out engineer and a witch would climb to such heights and stand before me today?" Honma Noriko said.
"What do you want?" Xu Yang asked Honma Noriko.
"I just feel a great sense of pity for someone like you, who after half a century of struggle, finally has the opportunity to speak with me alone," Honma Noriko said.
"Then why bother calling? Soon enough, we'll arrest you." Xu Yang said.
He responded to Honma Noriko from his train, which was steadily moving forward, heading into the heart of the Ark Bunker on the New Taixi State's great plains.
This is the final battle, he thought to himself.
