Bright words for a puppet," Cao Cao remarked with a small snarl on his face.

"No," I refused to be called as such. Up until now, I had the freedom of backing away from situations that weren't meant for my level.

Fighting Kuroka? Avoidable if I hadn't helped Kunou. If I had been the mindless puppet like the moron was painting me to be, I wouldn't have pushed myself to the limits to protect the young girl.

"But I can tell already that the greatest of puppets is right in front of me," I returned with a fierce voice. "Someone that submitted his ambition to both a dragon that doesn't care for humanity, and a deity that just wants to get a pretty pedestal to stand into."

There was no verbal response to that, but I tensed up as I saw him spring in action. A battlecry preceded his arrival, the True Longinus firmly held in his hands as he prepared to plunge it forward and through me.

I felt Ingvild ducking already, the girl having spotted the approaching danger fairly quickly, and I pushed energy in my torso to carefully move out of the way of the approaching lance just barely.

There was a brief moment of silence, a brief moment where time slowed down where I could see Cao Cao annoyed and slightly surprised reaction at the lack of success at the swift strike.

I could predict the following moves from his facial features, but I didn't hesitate to react at the opening left for me to exploit with this sudden closeness.

Before he could step back and continue with his assault, I started to pump energy through my right hand, carefully channeling the Thunder element within my palm as a familiar electric string formed from it.

The other end latched over the staff of the True Longinus, stopping Cao Cao from commencing with whatever attacks he had planned for me.

He looked visibly concerned by this development, perhaps any recounting of my abilities was limited to how things had gone back in Kyoto, thus leaving him unaware of the full extent of my current capacities.

"You know, I find it somewhat ironic that the greatest of the Sacred Gears has the worst flaw possible," I pointed out quickly as the electricity started to spread all over the Longinus, reaching right into the tense body of a certain moron.

The 'zapping' scene that ensued gave me some comfort over the matter. It would seem like there was indeed some silly issue with Cao Cao that not many had tried to capitalize upon.

While the True Longinus was made with an unknown metal that was blessed by the blood of Jesus Christ, it was still made by metal. And most of metals are conductors for electricity.

I was forced let go of the brutal retaliation I had given to the delusional young man, now unconscious and possible on the brink of dying, when I noticed Ophis snap into action after witnessing this unexpected instance.

With the True Longinus still within my hold, I merely snatched it from its user and I turned its pointy end towards the Dragon of Infinity.

The rest of the audience tensed up at the sight, some ready to start a brawl to recover the unconscious body of their leaders, but surprisingly enough the large majority merely watched the scene unfolding.

Even the Pendragon siblings looked neutral at it, with just Le Fay looking surprised by this escalation while her brother and former teacher gave a careful and studious look over the matter.

Could it be that my words had some effect? I really hoped so, but my focus was once again directed at Ophis, and this time it was my turn to have the advantage over the predicament.

The girl paused, her eyes showing minor surprise at this turn of events.

"I don't really want to hurt you, Ophis," I warned with a careful voice. "But if you don't let us go, I will be more than happy to make your efforts of killing Great Red impossible to achieve by merely giving you a permanent injury."

The threat, while sounding fairly lightly to a normal human beings, was tantamount of horror from the dragon, and her widening eyes were proof of that.

It was a drastic twist, a decisive disadvantage that could seriously jeopardize her chances of taking revenge on Great Red.

There was also the fact that Dragon were inherently prideful, making the slight of getting wounded by a 'worm' like me the worst humiliation possible.

So she merely stared at me, her lips displaying a rare scowl as she contemplated over the next actions that she needed to take over this unpleasant diktat.

I was in a position of immense power, both because I had the True Longinus tightly in my control, and because I just took out the Hero Faction's leader.

This last one didn't seem permanent, I could see him breathing softly through the forced state of sleep, but it was enough to bring discord within their folds.

"Okay," The girl confirmed curtly, but I didn't move at all at that admission.

"Swear it," I pressed on with a tense tone, knowing that deception wasn't beyond the devious dragon in front of me.

She blinked, possibly confused over my lack of trust over this first encounter, but eventually she relented with a nod.

"I swear that you three can leave," Ophis commented dully, a subtle hint of irritation now playing in her words.

I nodded at this, and glanced at Vali. "Sougyoku, a quick way out please," I commented quickly, causing his tension to lessen up at the constant crescendo of novelties, and the young man threw and explosive spell behind us.

The wall cracked and crumbled, offering a new close exit that we could use for our evacuation.

Vali was the first to jump out of it, with me taking slow steps backwards while still having Ingvild latching onto me with a nervous hold.

She was still shivering, but the young woman seemed to have recovered well from that close encounter with hyper-death.
