[A powerful object... Yachi can only imagine what that means. Like a magic wand or a mind control ring or a sword that could cut through anything? Power to control the world???? That was sort of scary already; she can't imagine being driven to such heights, but she was no stranger to fierce sports competitions where it felt like each player literally put their life on the line for the sake of victory.
He is really amazing after all.]
I hope you aren't disqualified for being here, but when you get back, do your best and win!
A-are you?! [Isn't saying 'good luck' the proper response when someone's trying for something?!] You're not a gang leader or a delinquent so you can't be evil?? [those are some standards, Yachi, but basically the only real evils in a typical school life.]
[Other purposes... If not to win the prize, then that means trying to prevent somebody else from winning, right? So the weapon of mass destruction doesn't fall into the wrong hands?? Yachi looks up at Archer with something of reverence...]
If the fate of the world is in somebody's hands, then yours wouldn't be too bad at all. You're having a normal conversation with someone like me, so I don't think you're a bad person.
Archer blinks, looking almost indignant at that. He could tell her right now what a terrible person he is, what a worthless and distorted existence he has--
But he can't really bring himself to do that when she's looking at him so earnestly. Besides, it would really be a needless self-indulgence. He'll let her have her illusions. ]
The fate of the world isn't in my hands at all right now. We're on equal ground here for the moment, so the fate of the world could just as easily be in your hands.

[ He blinks at her in surprise. ]
Should you really be wishing me luck like that? You don't even know if I'm some kind of villain who'd use that power for ill!

Well, as it happens, I wasn't interested in the prize...I had other purposes in that contest. So it's meaningless anyway.

[OH NOOO NO NO NO NONO THAT WOULD BE A VERY BAD IDEA.]
I- I can't--!!
I don't know what to do with the world!!
WHAT IF I DROP IT?!!

Then you'd be a villain instead of a hero. Perhaps even a supervillain.
Would you like to be a supervillain? I'd have to fight you.

[She says it like it's a given, and it is. She's not even that great at swatting flies around the house!]
I'm not rich enough to afford an evil lair and I don't know how to say mean things to heroes who try to defeat me and I'm not tall enough!!
no subject
[ He shrugs a little. ]
You probably won't destroy the world, so try not to worry about it too much and let people like me protect you when it's necessary.

[The relief on her face is like bright sunshine]
The world is saved...~ But if I ever let evil take over and become a villain you have to strike me down!

[ He frowns a little at her last comment. ]
Obviously, but I'm not too concerned about that.
