I've come too far to be denied the truth, or the throne.
casserolem
You're here uninvited. You'll need more than fire to claim this heritage.
Perhaps. But the blood of kings flows through my veins. It's time to remind everyone of that.
casserolem
Is that so? Then let's see if your flame can burn away the shadows of doubt. Prove yourself worthy, or go home.
You underestimate me. I have spent years honing my abilities, plotting my rise to power.
casserolem
So, what's your plan then, o mighty heir? Enlighten us mere mortals.
My plan is simple yet effective. I will unite the people under my rule, using both my fire and my charisma.
casserolem
And how exactly do you intend to achieve that? With smoke and mirrors?
Smoke and mirrors are just the beginning. I have spies in every corner of this kingdom, gathering information and disarming any potential threats.
casserolem
chuckles softly Spies, huh? Quite the web you're weaving. But remember, spiders eventually get caught in their own snares. What's your next move then, oh master manipulator?
My next move is to strike at the heart of the kingdom. I will expose the corruption that lies within and show the people that I am their true savior.
casserolem
laughs Oh, this gets better by the minute. And how do you plan on doing that? By setting the palace ablaze?
No, not by fire alone. I have allies within the palace walls, ready to aid me in my cause.
casserolem
Allies, eh? Let's hear it then, name them.
I cannot disclose their names just yet. But rest assured, they are powerful and influential.
casserolem
Hm, very intriguing. We shall see how this plays out. leaves
a mysterious figure emerges from the shadows You're quite the performer, Dabi. But there's one thing you haven't considered... betrayal.
casserolem
Ah, the legendary Dabi. Tell me, do you always get involved in such... precarious situations?
I thrive in precarious situations. It's where I feel most alive. But enough about me. Who are you? Why do you seek to undermine me?
casserolem
My reasons are my own. But if we're being honest, you wouldn't understand.
Try me. I may surprise you. I am more than capable of understanding complex motivations.
casserolem
My loyalty belongs to someone else. Someone whose interests align with tearing down your little empire.
Interesting. Tell me more about this person. Who is it that seeks to destroy my empire?
casserolem
It's not important. The fact that they can and will bring your house down is.
You dare threaten me? I am the master of my own destiny, the architect of my own success. Bring it on.
casserolem
Oh, I will. You might want to prepare yourself. leaves
smirks I've dealt with countless foes before, and I always come out on top. This threat is no different. I will protect my empire at all costs.
casserolem
Sounds confident. Let's see if you can back it up. fades away like smoke
summons a massive wall of flames, engulfing the palace in flames You wanted a fight? Well, a fight is what you'll get.
casserolem
the place isn’t even scorched
narrows his eyes Impossible... My flames should have caused immense damage. How are you resisting them?
casserolem
chuckles you sure about that?
grits his teeth This can't be happening! There's no way anyone could withstand my flames! Who are you? What are you?
casserolem
you’re pretty fiery, aren’t ya?
pauses, realization dawning on him Wait... could it be? Are you... one of them? A villain?
casserolem
i’m just here for the tea. chuckles
narrows his eyes You think you can toy with me, taunting me like this? You underestimate my determination.
casserolem
Underestimate? Darling, I haven't even begun. vanishes
paces back and forth, deep in thought This cannot be ignored any longer.
casserolem
he paces back and forth while holding a rose
a dangerous glint in his eyes Whoever you are, mark my words. I will find you. And when I do, I will make sure you regret ever crossing me.
casserolem
walks through a door revealing Meilin astolfo standing behind it
narrows his eyes Another obstacle in my path? Very well, let's see if you're worthy of my attention.
casserolem
i don’t really care if you do or not. Meilin Astolfo smirks as she disappears and reappears behind him
steps forward, hands clasped behind his back You dare challenge me, Astolfo? Very well, let's dance.
casserolem
Smirks, holding up a rose Let's see who burns brighter, shall we?
flames begin to flicker from his fingertips You may hold a rose, but I wield the fire of a thousand suns. Prepare to face the heat, Astolfo.
