17.3 Duel?

[COMBAT COMMENCED]

"Here I come, Moriya!"

What the- "W-Wait!"

Not even having the time to react, my eyes were open wide as Guidance literally swung her keyboard right at me. She didn't even do anything special. She literally just tried to smack me right in the face with her actual keyboard that she used to manipulate reality!

"Wait? There's no time to wait in actual combat," Guidance scoffed, her [Manifest] lazily hefted over her shoulder as if it was an actual weapon. "Besides, what I did wasn't even that bad even if it hit you."

"W-well, I didn't think I wouldn't even get time to breathe," I sarcastically quipped, wiping the sweat cold sweat off my brow as I tried to regain my composure. "We're not trying to kill each other here. We're just trying to spar."

To my surprise, Guidance simply smirked at me as she placed a hand over her keyboard. "Don't worry, Moriya. Nobody can die in a [Duel] anyway. We can beat each other up to our heart's content!"

"Wha-"

"[Ruin]!"
