It seems that the gang had no other option but to confront kenneth nifuji by themselves, but how can they confront him?

After they've learned about the next holder of the Olympian's power, they needed to act fast cause nifuji wont take long in japan, he have a schedule in South Korea. Later on, they planned to let him sip a cup of coffee, but it seems useless since the security in his room is heavily guarded. So they just go with the flow, after they've reached the hotel where nifuji is staying at, they asked for nifuji's location, but since visitors are strictly prohibited in the hotel, they didn't gave them the room number. Suijin got frustrated and trying to convince the hotel staff to tell them nifuji's location. While getting frustrated, nifuji kenneth shows himself before them, saying "it seems like you wanted to meet me fellow japanese?" Suijin stumbled in excitement while kaminari feels unease, kaminari asked nifuji a "solo talk" buy nifuji replied with "I know your purpose here, you wanted to recruit me right?" All of them stumbled with fear and confusion, henry asked "how did you know about that?" Nifuji replied with a "a friend of mine, inherited the power of Achilles, so I know and can feel if someone is coming for my head" the gang was filled with shockness and fear, especially henry since the cult never told them about this. Nifuji requested an offer for kaminari "kitamura kaminari, isnt it? If you manage to defeat me on a 1 on 1 archery, I'll join your cult" Suijin suggests himself to be the one to fight but kaminari accepted the offer, henry, maki and suijin was worried. Nifuji explains the game mechanics, saying "since I know you don't know archery, let me get this game easy, if you hit the middle dot 5 times you won." Kaminari feel confident and accepted the offer.

The game meeting will be on Saturday, 9:00 AM, They have 2 more days to train.

On Thursday afternoon after school, they were in suijin's backyard. Suijin kept teaching kaminari archery, but he doesn't know how to use a bow and kept missing the target, he even almost hit a lady passing by, suijin felt hopeless and kept asking kaminari the perfect form, suijin kept telling kaminari that "you must maneuver your bow properly, otherwise you won't win against him" Kaminari kept trying yet he cant control the flow of his bow
