Following ra's monotone voice, Kain could also imagine the scene at that ti.
Cecilia crippled her hearing, ignoring her growing injuries and aid straight at ra.
Kain knew that this kind of situation would not last long.
Although not as fatal as losing sight, losing hearing ant losing balance. This was even more important for soone who relied on close combat like Cecilia.
But beyond Kain's expectations, when both ra and Cecilia had approached each other, preparing for a life-or-death battle, Cecilia stopped.
That's right, stopping in the middle of the fight, just watching ra's magic skill hit her.
As she told this story, even ra's voice was filled with confusion and doubt, because she fundantally did not understand why Cecilia did such a thing.
But Kain probably understood.
However, he did not explain much, just comforted her.
"So we've passed this round, huh?"
"Well, right now our opponents are only three other teams."
Kain said calmly, then his expression suddenly beca serious.
"ra, where is everyone now?"
"Them? Basically just relaxing, what's up?"
"That's good, I want you to secretly call everyone here, except Elna."
"Except... Elna?"
ra was startled.
Although she didn't like this new girl in the team at first, ra herself was originally cold on the outside and warm on the inside, so obviously after the recent battle, she also approved of Elna.
But based on Kain's tone, this was clearly ostracizing Elna from the group.
But her long-standing trust told her that Kain never did anything without a purpose.
"Just leave it to ."
ra made the assertion.
…
After she left, Kain lay quietly on the bed, his face still stiff.
Because now is when the true battle begins.
"Now, it's ti to expose this spy."
Kain spoke softly, but his eyes beca sharp.
A mont later, ra, Myra, and Katie all presented themselves before him. Without exception, all three of them showed relatively heavy expressions, after all, there was no one who did not feel burdened when knowing that a comrade fighting beside them was an insider.
Seeing that the people he needed were all gathered, Kain cleared his throat.
"I know, people probably don't believe it too much, so I want to tell the story from the beginning."
Kain slowly recounted, from the mont he received Faith's letter, until he confird his suspicions.
As for the other three girls, their expressions changed several tis. In their eyes, that period of ti was just a preparation period before the tournant. It could be said that there was nothing unusual about it, but hidden deep within that normalcy was a silent war between Kain and Faith, a war where Elna beca a pawn between the two.
In fact, the things that Kain and Faith thought about weren't so difficult that they couldn't understand them, because the things they thought about were logical and had a clear order, and could be understood just by explaining them.
But the thing to note here is that normal people in their normal state basically don't pay attention to these factors, because their concentration is not enough to attract their awareness. However, to Kain, these actions were as normal as breathing.
Although it may sound a bit arrogant, from the beginning until now, it has actually been just simple action.
Kain wanted to show Faith that he was caught up in this ga of espionage and counter-espionage.
Otherwise, Elna wouldn't have gotten any information at all.
And now, Kain needed to show that he was still caught up in this spy-counterspy ga, so that Faith wouldn't think he was preparing behind the scenes.
Of course, this is still just the first step.
"We can't disappear together for too long, so I'll approach one person later, tell that person the contents of the speculation and plan, and so on until all three of you understand everything, understand?"
All three of them nodded, and then Myra and Katie understood and quickly left, leaving ra and Kain alone in a room.
Obviously, everyone in the team knew that ra was by Kain's side most of the ti, so even if he was near her, it wouldn't make Elna suspicious.
Thus, ra beca the first object to which Kain communicated.
From the previous arrangent, it can be known that there are currently four teams left.
If Faith's team wasn't among these four teams, it would be easy, but Kain felt that this wouldn't happen, unless a strong opponent like Cecilia appeared in Faith's group.
Cecilia's power was so great that it almost defied all preparations and calculations. To fight Cecilia, Kain had to use all his strength and intelligence. Even so, in the end, he still had to rely on ra's plan to help.
Even with ra's plan, victory or defeat would still be difficult to predict if Cecilia didn't give up at the last mont.
The above is enough to show how difficult Cecilia is to deal with, and there is only one Cecilia in this entire tournant.
Therefore, Kain was forced to assu that Faith's team had won and qualified to advance to the next round, so his plan made sense.
During this ti, the last two matches were also taking place, but they were no longer aningful because Kain's team with a perfect record was already assured of first place. So Kain wanted to take advantage of this ti to carry out his plan.
It could be said that Kain had hidden it very well, but Elna seed to have noticed sothing unusual.
"Those people... all went to the place where Kain was unconscious once. Then each of them went to visit Kain alone once more..."
"Except ."
Thinking up to here, Elna suddenly realized a problem.
Most likely, Kain has awakened.
And he called each person over to convey so information, everyone on the team except herself.
Since Elna was a spy, she quickly deduced the possibility that she had been discovered.
"He found out, so he used this thod to hide himself?"
Elna was startled.
