Kinto dashes straight at me in a one-step burst, unsheathing her blade and slashing right at my chest. I ducked, barely dodging the blade, she turned around and slashed at the back of my hip. I flipped backwards over her shoulder when she switched stance and smoothly changed a horizontal cut to a overhead slash right at my face while I'm halfway through the air, I coat my body in a dense layer of air and clamped the blade on the side, stopping her blade completely. I use the circular momentum and used the blade as a pivot to swing feet towards her chest. As I'm about to hit, a block of ice in a shape of a shield halted my movement. Then, Kinto appeared behind me with her arm mid-slashing towards my back. This demon! What the hell happened to using half of her power!?
>Danger imminent: searching best escape route<
What?
>Escape route found<
Say who?
>Use: Oxygen Implosion<
Huh?
>Implementing skill into host's mind<
>also, if you say "huh" or "what" one more time, I am going to slap you<
can you even d…sorry
My brain started heating up as new knowledge entered my mind. The Oxygen Implosion is basically an explosion of air, like a grenade, but just the shockwave part. You gather air around you and condense it inside of your heart, and then release it in a shockwave of air that burst out in a spherical shape, knocking back anyone around you. Kinto instantly notices something is wrong and switches from mid-slash to a block but it was much too late, she got blasted away and skidded away from me. I took that chance and dashed in while activating my Anigma, I felt the familiar feeling as my eyes sharpen and my body grows light. I launched a high kick which she dodged by ducking down. I transitioned to a spinning back kick, blocked. Low sweep, dodged. Rocket axe kick, dodged. Side kick, dodged. Roundhouse kick, blocked. She slid behind me using ice and slashed, knowing that she is getting cornered. I made a huge burst on my leg turning and entire 180-degree turn, sending my leg…crap, right into her blade… At this point, I wonder if I even have a brain.
>I question that too<
Hey! Wait you can read my mind?
>only those you want to share<
Your voice sounds feminine, are you a female?
>the battle is still going, conversations in your mind just happens to be faster<
Of that's right… do you, by any chance, happen to know how to save my leg from demon 1?
>just kick harder, the armor is indestructible<
Ah.
I used rocket kick straight to her blade causing her to get knocked back, why is she smiling at me like a proud mother. Or a psychopath. My Anigma shuts off and I instantly felt extreme fatigue, Kinto took this opportunity to freeze my leg, sealing me in place, then lightly tapping her blade on my neck
"winner, Kinto!"
My armor vanished and I collapsed beside Nickle
"bro! you were holding out on me! I knew the questions you asked were just you being a dxck" Nickle laughed "oop, I'm next. Seeya!" and he walks up on stage to face some random dude that I'm too tired to see
>I like this guy, he called you a dxck<
Oh shut it
>make me<
Wait, how are you even here? The armor vanished
>I'm inside your brain, I'm merged with you. The armor is just something I provide<
So…what are you?
>armor, weapon, companion, assistance. I can be a lot of things<
Sigh, oooh look! Nickle just did a sick combo
>how amazing<
Aren't you a sarcastic one
Shortly after, Nickle came down victorious after overpowering his opponent with relentless assault. Siro simply scared a guy off the platform, Kinto knocked a girl out while still in deep thought. Some random guy is currently bragging about his win to some random girl. Nickle came to me and sat down
"now then" he looked at me "did y-"
"yes I did, it really is a suit type" I interrupted
"oh, well wh-"
" I discovered the armor 4 minutes ago" I answered his question
"haha!" he laughed "if you don't wanna say then don't! but tell me wh-"
"I'm not going to tell you what the type is, in case you fight me"
"…is my ques-"
"yes, it's really obvious"
"…ok"
>you are so mean<
… je ne sais pas qu'est-ce que tu étés parler sur
>I speak French as well y'know<
…oops
Soon it was down to four contenders, Nickle, Siro, Kinto, and a random person (who is still bragging). Kinto went up first against the random dude, then knocked him out in 4 seconds flat and said she wasn't feeling too well, then proceeded to sat down beside me (the teacher knows she is lying but she just ignored her. So unfair) perfectly fine, making several guys slightly jealous. I was about to ask why she lied when I looked up to see who Nickle was up against, Siro.
"Kinto, you are so very cruel" I sighed, I wonder if you can get PTSD twice. Kinto smiled and winked, then we looked back on stage.
After the tournament ended, we were shown to our rooms (private rooms, hell yeah!). inside was a simple bed, carpet, a desk with a shelf, and a small table in the middle. Nickle stumbled into his room while Siro walked to hers, with a satisfied grin.
"remember the deal" Kinto whispered into my ears as I'm about to head into my room "we are meeting my father tomorrow". I completely forgot the deal…oh no
I went into my room and collapsed right on my bed
>you are very energy inefficient<
Well my bad. A cheetah is known for speed, not stamina
>well anyway, now that we are alone, we can get to know each other<
Please word that differently
>I mean, you are already relaxed on the bed<
Oh dear. Well first question. Boy or girl?
>I am identified as a girl<
Second, what can you do, battle-wise
>well, as you already experienced, I can give knowledge and provide you an armor that boosts your capabilities. Your armor has three modes: battle mode, assassination mode, and pure speed mode
Battle mode: It's the one you were using in the tournament.
-300% increased attack speed and movement speed
-100% increased elemental control and power
-100% increased physical strength
Assassination mode: used for quick kills and sneak attacks, as well as moving around like a ninja
-150% increased attack speed
-150% increased elemental control
-50% increased strength
Skills: silent steps, vital organ recognition
Pure speed mode: when you need to run away like a cowa-I mean making a tactical retreat<
…
>anyway. Pure speed mode:
-1000% increased movement speed
-100% increased attack speed
-x2 reflex time
-20% elemental control and power<
I think my brain got fried.
>sigh. Worry not, I'll remind you when necessary<
Aww you are so sweet, I never knew that under the evil computer lady is actually a thoughtful cute g-
>go. To. Sleep.<
But I'm complimenting y-
>do you want nightmares?<
Sorry sorry, good night
…
…
>…good night<
on a side note: je ne sais pas qu'est ce que tu étés parler sur
in french means: i dont know what you are talking about.
well then, enjoy!
