The Deal with X

"Well, either way…" I walked past X—my father—and headed for the exit. "… I've made my decision, and you've made yours. Looks like we'll be enemies from now on, huh?"

"Kai Kai… is there really no other way?" My father asked all of a sudden, right before I left.

I stopped momentarily, then clenched my fists.

"… No. I refuse to back down."

"I see…" X stood up from his chair as well, back still turned to me. "Well then… let us make a deal."

I raised an eyebrow. "A deal?"

"If you can make it to me and defeat me before I manage to advance antimagic enough to counter Chaos… then I will accept that you are strong enough to stand up against even those otherworldly beings I spoke about. However… if you aren't able to do that… I will wipe out magic and destroy the primordial Chaos in this world. Does that sound fair?"
