Conditions Of The Duel

"Such a fine synthetic world is not what I expected." Aphosis, who looked to be a young boy less than ten years old, said with a plain expression.

"No need to fret. This place is certainly special…and you even sealed off some things from my perception. I can break the seal but am not making any effort to do so.

"You are a very petty person. I do not want to negate the cooperative spirit of our agreement for a Synthetic World, no matter how special it is. They're more or less the same. Great for a lot of things but ultimately lacking for a true powerhouse of my level."
