"The moment I summon them… both Ada and Carmen will wake up, and the trial begins. They'll have to fight each other inside that arena. The one who wins survives… and the loser dies, just as I said.
Of course… if an outsider steps into the arena, the trial is canceled and the Scale kills them both instantly. And if the holder of the Scale dies, they both die as well.
So I'm sorry, Frey… you can't kill me. Not yet!"
The more Maika spoke, the darker Frey's eyes became.
Inside his mind, Frey had already killed Maika dozens of times—but he didn't dare underestimate what Maika had said.
Maika, realizing he was still in one piece, grew more confident and continued spewing his madness.
"Let's gamble, Frey! Let's bet on who walks out alive from the trial!
Your sister?!
Or my mother?!"
Maika shouted with manic joy, provoking Frey even further.
"Why in hell would you do something like this?
To your mother… and your own family?"
