"Since the moment you two entered Uttar Pradesh, I had awakeners on your tail to check what you were up to," Rudra revealed, walking towards me. "I was thinking of some method to frame you for a crime and kill you, but then you offered me the opportunity yourself by entering that gate."
"Wh-why are you... going to such—cough... cough—lengths when this was... the first time... we met each other?" I asked, coughing blood from my internal injuries.
"Blame your brother for that. He humiliated me in front of the whole world five years ago. I'm merely taking my revenge," Rudra replied, reaching before me.
"But you... will be... jailed for life... on the charge of... murder. Is it worth it... spending your remaining life behind prison... for the sake of revenge?"
"Do you think the government can arrest me? I'm an S-Rank Awakener and a symbol of the power of this country. They do not have the guts to offend me."
