The Next Day
Isamu had finished watching the Adam Roman video at his desk, his phone propped up by a slight stand. He leaned back in his seat, looking up at his ceiling. "Jeez, a Char-copy against a Char-copy. He's an A-Rank at that so he's gotta be tough. Wow. Still is King even going to respond?"
Isamu shook his thoughts of the video, there was other more important things he had to focus on. He turned his attention to his workshop, a better desk where all his Gunpla materials were. There was a new box sitting on the upper-shelf and below it was his G-Nexus. He had gotten the new Gunpla Kit after his training with Miyuki, he found some flaws and afterwards felt drawn to the hidden gem.
The Gundam Astaroth ... Something drew me to him but I can't bring myself to give up on the G-Nexus. Life is so complicated.
He stood up from his computer desk and strolled over to the standing G-Nexus. "I'll spruce'em up a little before heading into GBN. I wonder what they're up to?"

A message in response to Adam's challenge was sent to the European's inbox. In the video a male frame stared directly at the camera. King's hand reached out, gripping the upper-edge of camera's frame. "I accept your challenge, imposter. Defeating you will fly me far above your station and assure my title as Red Comet. Your Gunpla and status will make a suitable stepping stone."
He smiled. "A week. A week from now will be the day I end your career and reputation ... Oh and you mistake my position. The true number one in GBN is another. "
The video ended with his smile fading into a displeased grimace.
