Old? [The view turns to show Rider, and he's paused the game to hear this] But that merchant, he said that this was the top of the line!
[But then it dawns on him, so he laughs] Ahh, I know what it must be! If this looks old, then may I ask what year it is in the world you came from, girl?
2011! Well, that is not so bad! I am used to hearing of differences in the order of centuries by now. But are they truly that much more interesting? I have been quite entertained by this one!
This? Ha! [He laughs heartily] Why, this is a game of strategy and war tactics, girl! This is Admirable War Tactics! They released a "video game," so I could not help myself but to try my luck.
A video game! It is a... [He pauses, his cheer fading just slightly. He's not really sure either, now that he thinks about it.] Well, it is a game accompanied with moving pictures! I have only recently learned of them myself, so I am afraid I cannot offer much insight.

[ You immediately have this young girl's attention, Rider - she's even leaning a bit closer at the screen as if she's trying to get a better look at it. ]
Not as much as I expected, honestly! The real thing is much more difficult!
[A cheerful laugh! But... of course it is, Rider.] This version, it's much more simplified. It's a matter of placing troops effectively and predicting your enemies' moves with perfection!
Ha, I will admit the controls and the box, they are confusing! It took me nearly half an hour to figure out how that worked alone! [he really needs Waver to teach him how to technology] But I do not mind learning and pushing through the frustrations for the sake of this game! It is something I am a great admirer of, this series.
I think it is fantastic! Though I am biased, admittedly, but I find it quite fun. As for how it works... Well, I do not know much of the technical aspects, but-
[He picks up the bracelet so he can show him] If you put one of the boxes in this box and press this button, then it turns on! The images of the game will appear on the screen. Then you use these, the controllers, to take action!
Ah! A 'video game', is it not? Being from a virtual environment, I am familiar with such entertainment. [Kind of.]
Very well, Rider! I shall bestow upon you the honor of accepting your challenge! After all, my imperium was not the size it was for no reason!
[Never mind that it was that already that big when she ascended the throne. She takes pride in her foreign relation skills! Watch as the Republic of Macedonia be the most coveted thing in this match.]
Well met, Saber! From my understanding, entering each others' houses can cause difficulty, so we will have to meet in a public place.
[He thinks about it for a moment, then nods] Ah, the arena! That would be quite a fitting place, and in my exploration of Asgard, I noticed there were some empty rooms that surely no one would mind if we used for a bit. Is that acceptable?
And you will find that it is an excellent structure! It is quite beautiful in appearance, but I also find beauty in its function. To have a small battlefield for our use here-there is nothing better!
But, yes, I will meet you there! I do not know where, of course, but I imagine I will not be hard to find! It does not seem a popular place.

Umu! I haven't the chance to explore the arena as of yet, so perhaps I shall take a self-tour of it after our competition of world conquest.
