Kapitel 1701: Point of Failure

"…Interesting," Rui mused. "They actually agreed…? I wasn't expecting that."

He turned to Master Reina. "What do you think is the probability that they're sincere in revealing their identity?"

"…Fifty-fifty," Master Reina remarked with thought. "I depends. They could be either paranoid or duplicitous; it is difficult to discern which without meeting them."

"Agreed," Rui nodded. "Regardless, assuming they do indeed intend to reveal their identities, then I just need to survive all the assassins and let the Voidreaper kill me."

Master Gurren and Master Reina exchanged a puzzled glance.

"So you do intend to kill yourself?" Master Reina pouted. "That sounds boring."

"I intend to pretend to succumb to the hands of the Voidreaper," Rui chuckled. "I'm going to need someone to play the part of the Voidreaper convincingly enough."

He glanced at Master Reina with a pointed look.

"Me?" She was flummoxed.
