Chapter 106: The Alien Tech
"What!? Why are you laughing!?" Manifesto asked, clearly irritated by the woman’s attitude.
"Ahhh... God, I’ve never heard a joke this good before," said Photon Fury, still chuckling.
"What do you mean?" Manifesto asked again, his eyes showing a mix of confusion and anger.
"You’re going to arrest him, and you don’t even know what your opponent is like? How stupid are you?" Photon Fury sneered.
"Heh! Don’t preach to me, Pamela Diamond. You’re not so different from me in terms of arrogance," Manifesto retorted.
The moment Photon Fury heard her full name, she clenched her fists but managed to calm herself in an instant.
"That’s exactly why I do have the right to preach to you, Manifesto," she said calmly, then continued:
"Nihilus isn’t your everyday villain. The moment you enter Arkadia and your face appears on the news, he’ll dig into the archives, gather all the information he can, and study you. He’ll prepare traps and contingency plans specifically to counter you." She paused, eyes glazing over, as if recalling the past, then resumed.
"This is a warning: if you don’t let go of your pompous arrogance and you allow him to know you’re coming, he will exploit every single one of your weaknesses. He has both the skill and a powerful EF. Don’t let your stupid pride make you lose," Photon Fury warned firmly.
Instead of acknowledging the warning, Manifesto scoffed.
"Heh heh—HAHAHAHA! You... I’m not like you, Photon Fury," Manifesto said, grinning. "My arrogance is backed up by power and skill. Yours is just that... empty arrogance."
He smirked and continued, "I’ll let you know we’re not the same. I want him to know I’m coming. And once I’ve captured him, you’ll understand—we’re built different."
