The Meeting Begins
Zenon Kaiser sits at the center of the table, his cold gaze dominating the room. He looks at the other leaders, then starts to speak:
Zenon: "Chaos is rising. We've lost too many men recently... and there's only one person to blame for that."
Ryo (calm and analytical): "Toji Rakus... He wasn't just a tool like we thought."
Veit Marcus (smirking): "He was a sleeping beast, and now he's awake."
Kain Valz stays silent for a moment, then speaks in a calm but sinister tone:
Kain: "There's no denying Toji has become a threat, but the question is... should we kill him, or do we have another use for him?"
---
The Tension – The Betrayal Unveiled
Zenon stares at Kain for a long moment, then smiles coldly.
Zenon: "Kain... you've always been the smartest among us, but you're also the most dangerous... and perhaps the most treacherous."
Everyone falls silent... the tension is palpable. Kain keeps his calm, but his eyes flicker with caution.
Ryo (placing his hand on the table, speaking with confidence): "For a while now, things haven't been adding up... Some of our deals have been leaked, some of our enemies know our moves before we make them... Someone has been leaking information, and we've been searching for this person for some time."
Veit Marcus looks directly at Kain.
Veit: "Looks like we've finally found him."
---
The Full Betrayal – The Confrontation Between Zenon and Kain
Kain finally smiles, leaning back in his chair before speaking calmly.
Kain: "It took you longer than I expected."
The next moment, several armed men burst into the room... Kain's men!
Kain: "I knew you'd figure me out eventually, so I planned for this."
Chaos erupts – gunfire exchanges within the room. Several of the leaders are killed instantly. Veit Marcus charges forward to attack Kain but faces strong resistance.
Ryo hides behind the table, trying to think of an escape, while Zenon remains calm amidst the chaos.

Toji's Timely Entrance
As the battle rages on, the door of the meeting room slams open, and a blood-covered figure enters calmly... It's Toji Rakus!
Toji surveys the chaos before him, then glances at Zenon, still sitting calmly, and Kain standing with his armed men.
Toji (coldly): "Looks like I came at the perfect time."
Everyone falls silent for a moment... Kain looks at Toji, then laughs mockingly.
Kain: "Ah, there you are... I was wondering when you'd show up."
Toji says nothing. He just pulls out his gun and shoots one of Kain's men, reigniting the battle!

Kain: "This isn't the end... It's just the beginning of something much bigger."
Zenon says nothing. He just looks at Kain coldly, then shifts his gaze to Toji, who stands, heavily wounded, but alive.
---
The Aftermath – A New Pact?
The headquarters is in utter chaos, bodies scattered everywhere, some leaders dead, others in shock from what's happened.
Zenon looks at Toji and speaks calmly:

Toji grips his gun, his eyes burning with fury, but he doesn't shoot... not yet.
He leaves the room, realizing that this was just the beginning.
