Two Fires

Adam glared at Edir, clearly unhappy with the way events were unfolding.

Edir just smiled slyly, he knew that Adam had no choice but to take his advice. After all, even without Edir's desire, Adam needed 999 points to challenge the Guardian of the D-Zone to a fight.

"Argh... Damn, I'll have to fall for your advice, but... After that, you'll tell me everything!" Adam waved his hand irritably, heading for the exit of the dining hall. He didn't care who he fought, he would challenge the first person he saw.

Lola tilted her head, looking at Edir, puzzled.

"Why did you trick him?"

"Hmm, what are you talking about? Everything I said was the pure truth." Edir glared at her.

"Technically yes..." Lola muttered, poking at a lettuce leaf with her fork, "But... there are plenty of other ways to get 999 points. The fact that he withstood your attack is enough. He just needed to report it."
