First step - 27

"Hi"

"Oh, Liza, finally you came too ..."

"Yes, sorry, I had to do something"

"You went to see how Zeto was, right?" David said, in his usual low, hoarse voice.

"You really took your teaching job seriously, huh?" Libert added

Liza did not deny the statements of her companions and sat down at their table.

"Isn't Ron there?" Liza asked

"He's training, as you know in a few days he has a really complicated match ..."

Liza nodded.

The leaders of the "Rings" had met in David's room to talk about the next steps regarding the arena escape plan.

"First of all, we have to think about how to recover our memories, as you know, in the last period we have had new members also because we promised them that we would make sure they remember their past."

"Yeah ... however we still don't know where they keep them and if they keep them ..."

"In my opinion, first of all, we should know more about this place and the Empire" Liza suggested.

"Using the computer-like devices of our managers we would probably trace some information ... but it is also true that they always carry them with them ... "

" Yeah, they never leave anything important in their offices ... besides, I don't want to get them into trouble, our managers have always treated us well, don't you think? " Libert said.

"It's true ... but also remember that that's their job, they don't really care about us ..." David replied.

"But ..."

"Then we should enter either a research laboratory or a control office ..."

Throughout the arena there were many rooms with limited access only to the Slter belonging to the empire, among these, there were many laboratories of research, the purpose of which is unknown to the Gladiators, and also many control offices, in which the personnel controlled all the actions of the Gladiators.

The events that were following in David's room were covered by an illusion, both visual and auditory, created by Libert, so they could speak freely.

"I would like to enter their laboratory ... I think they hide lots of secrets in there" Lise said.

"Mmh, it will be very complicated, but I'm in it too" said Libert.

David nodded.

"This will be the first step ..."

Everyone nodded.

"Ah, about Zeto ... maybe we should get him into this operation too." Libert suggested.

"Eh ?! it's still too early." Liza replied

"Actually, I was thinking about it too ..." David said.

"He's still a rookie, it's too risky!"

"Don't get upset Liz, don't get clouded by your emotions, his power, if it really shows him forward into the future, it would really help us." Libert said.

"But he just got promoted to the Magnolia Tier, he's light years behind us when it comes to skill."

"Well, given his growth, soon he will have already reached us, Ha Ha ... in the last event he finished second fighting with a level S monster, he can already be considered at the level of the Top of the Magnolia Tier, don't you think? Hahaha ..." David laughed heartily.

"In fact, he has had a frightening growth ... but it's still too early ..."

"Then he would act with us, not alone, at worst, we will defend him ..."

"Maybe you're right ..." Liza resigned herself.

[The union of the Rings - Rankings

Liza: 978 FP: Hyperion Tier

David: 1002 FP: Legends Tier

Libert: 1114 FP: Legends Tier: Top 1000

Ron: 1234 FP: Legends Tier: Top 50]

Ron, in a few days, would be fighting in a 1v1 clash against 24th in the standings, winning would enter the Top 20.

...

The headaches continued for days, and my power continued to be faulty, so Ri and I decided not to sign up for the match and to focus on restoring and enhancing my power and abilities.

Now I had reached 105 FP.

(FP=PF= fame points)

[September 21, 2037]

That morning I went to Ri, in her office, ready to train.

"Hi Ri, how are you today?"

"All right, you? ... Well let's not waste time and go to the training room."

"Today I wanted to talk to you about something ..."

"Mmh?"

"In your opinion, what are your limits?"

"Well ... I don't know ... maybe I lean too much on my power ..."

"Exactly, that's why today you will fight with me without being able to use it ... you will then concentrate on using your secondary ability, and, moreover, I would like to give you this."

It was a candy with a class B ability called "Wind Movement" inside, Ri explained to me that this ability would enhance my mobility.

"Wind Movement" was a skill that used the element of wind to improve and speed up one's movements.

"Interesting, but did you buy it?"

"Exactly, you know, with you being promoted I made a lot of money, I decided to invest part of this money for this skill."

"Oh ... thank you ..."

'she's always so kind ...'

"Well, thank me with facts." She smiled.

She explained to me how the choice of this ability was not accidental, this ability, being of wind, was very compatible with "Wind Cut".

"These days I would like to train you on these 2 secondary skills of yours."

I nodded.

'Tonight I must also inform Liza that I have exceeded the 60Mp quota she had asked me ...'
