"So what's the plan?" Genshirou asked after they were transported to an artificial field that resembled a certain part of the Underworld that had a tall mountain and wide-open plain. After the random selection, the field and the standard game mode were selected. In the standard game mode, the teams would be teleported on the opposite sides of the map, and whoever takes out the enemy's 'King' first is the winner.
Right now, they were situated at a small hut on the edge of the plain which is the southern side of the field, "Although his members are competent enough, it's the leader that we should look out for.", muttered Kisuke while looking through the information regarding the Team Shooting Star. Although they lost all of their previous matches, it wasn't just about their inexperience in battles that hampered their abilities like what most of the articles were pointing out, but the fact that their leader couldn't control the power of his newly awakened Longinus, which ended up being a detriment instead, "But in this kind of field, winning is easy."
"Winning is easy?" asked Tiamat as she turned to Kisuke, "Don't underestimate the opponent. It's true that he can't properly control his power, but if he's given space to breathe, he'll be capable of retiring all of us with just a blast from his Sacred Gear. And them being on the top of the mountain, once he gets a sight of you, you'll be instantly targeted."
"Shooting Star would need some time to charge his attack so we'll have to cross the plain as fast as possible the moment we emerge to stop him. However, it's not just him on the other side, so we should expect an all-out battle in the middle of the plain and it wouldn't be weird if his teammates were to sacrifice themselves just to pin you down.", added Seekvaira recalling their previous matches.
All of a sudden Athena chuckled under her hood and mask, "I see. It'll be an easy win, indeed." Knowing some of Kisuke's abilities, Athena understood what must be done, "So we'll move together in the open?"
Kisuke nodded and said, "That's right~. Nothing is as easy as that."
Tiamat and Seekvaira looked confused and turned towards the other two who hadn't said anything, but they just started shaking their heads.

"Looks like we're lucky this time." excitedly declared Shooting Star's Bishop, "Since we're on the top of the mountain, sniping them with considerable power should be easy for you, leader."
"That's right. We just have to pin them down for a certain amount of time and we'll win.", the Knight added and prepared himself to move out as soon as they spotted the enemy team.
Those around agreed with Shooting Star's words and bore their weapons at Kisuke while slowly encircling him.
"No, I'm not. I've never looked down on anyone." And Kisuke was to be completely honest, he's really slightly terrified, 'With just a few seconds, he was able to amass energy that is equivalent to Cero Oscuras, the strongest Cero that an Arrancar or Visored is capable of. I'm just gone for a few months, yet people like this apparently started appearing out of nowhere. Maybe Issei didn't really need my assistance back then and he could have still gotten himself trained up.'
It's really a ridiculous world in Kisuke's opinion, 'I've gotten used to the Adventurer's slow leveling process.'
"But it's still a poor choice for you to come by yourself."
Kisuke shook his head, "It's already a good choice when you didn't expect me to come. Besides, the game had already concluded the moment you failed to perceive my actions.", he replied while pointing at one of his pockets.
Shooting Star hurriedly looked down at his vest and saw a small metallic black ball that he hadn't noticed. But before he could even think of taking it off and throwing it away, it was already too late as it had already started releasing high voltage electricity, instantly paralyzing him, "Ghhh!!!"
Nevertheless, that's all it did and it wasn't even enough to cause him any substantial harm, "This... I don't know what you had in mind but something like this is only enough to tickle me." Shooting Star forcefully moved his body and threw the ball away, 'I just need less than a minute to recover from that.'
Contrary to his expectations, however, Kisuke just smiled and responded, "I told you. It's game over."
Wondering what else might come, Shooting Star's members didn't wait any longer and pounced at their enemy. Though before they could reach him, a deafening high-frequency sound started blasting from beyond the trees, stopping everyone in their tracks.
Then again, it only became a mild annoyance as everyone was able to recover from its initial blast, "What's the use of these petty tricks!?" One of the pawns asked while resuming his charge.
"Petty? Say that again after looking at your leader."
At his cue, all of the Shooting Star's members looked behind them and saw Shooting Star had already dropped his Sacred Gear and was bleeding from the nose with his mouth frothing. He had already lost his consciousness and the retirement system had already taken hold of him.
