Chapter 103 - Test

Issei removed his red overcoat revealing dark turtleneck inner long sleeves. He tied his hair into a ponytail still wearing his glasses but once his was narrowed down. His opponent Ku fei could easily sense the air around him had change into a colder atmosphere. Ku Fei's eyes went wide when Issei was in front of her in ready to strike.

He moved instantly without even living dust after moving. It was called flash step which used the force solely in someone's feet to propel them. Issei only used his precise control enabling him to instantly move without leaving a trace. Teleportation or spatial shift leave traces of his initial movement but Flash solely use strength of someone or Ki.

Issei slowly place his fist on Ku Fei who couldn't react fast enough when it finally hit her abdomen and the floor crack as he gather the force on the ground twisting his hips performing a one inch punch Ku fei could see a figure of mighty Dragon behind him starting down at her then.

[Nephilim Dragon God style – Hell's mercy.]

From the strike blew away Ku Fei in astonishing speeds until landing a hundred feet away from Issei landing on a building. She tried to stand up found it was impossible as her sense of balance was shaken from the attack.

As the name suggest it's a strike that shake the whole body of the person but mainly the abdomen and mind. Issej wanted to see if she could still stand after tasting a wisp of his power output. Ku pei winces in pain and tried to looked at Issei who was jumping building to building until arriving where she was.

Ku fei was struggling to even looked at him looking down at her. She was shocked that someone was capable of showing such a powerful strike in a short distance. Though, the technique needs to have precise control to work.

"Can you still stand up? Try using your Ki and focus on strengthening in healing yourself. You are limited informal training of what Ki could do."

As another aspect of being guided is an impulse to teach those that cross his path. Once he guided someone then it would be impossible for them to betray him unless they are mind-controlled. Ku fei who heard him try used her to enhance her healing capabilities gradually enabling her slowly stand up.

"S-So you're a hidden expert in the ways of martial arts -Aru?"

"I don't consider myself as one but I know enough that you are only using Ki as a way to strengthen yourself."

"Is their other ways in there Ki -Aru?"

"Of course."

Ku fei was interested even though she was a bit skeptical hearing his statement. Issei that there are any humans capable of using ninjutsu from this world but seeing the young girl standing up after receiving his attack is quite the feat.

Issei doesn't like teaching other people when It's first time but the Ku fei caught his interest and maybe vital assets in saving this world. It merely his instinct was feeling him that Ku fei was linked from something big.

"Can you teach me how to use Ki properly -Aru. I want to be stronger than before -Aru."

"It would be difficult to learn the proper technique that I know but if you truly determine to learn then you need to take a simple test."

"Bring it on -Aru! I'm just getting ready to fight -Aru."

"How unfortunate that you hadn't felt death before. This will surely help you grow stronger so make sure not to faint."

For a warrior to become stronger they needed to be near death then survive to gain newfound strength. Ku Fei was too carefree to reach higher heights of martial art because in the end of the day, martial art is the for killing.

Ku fei wasn't prepared when Issei gazes upon her felt an imaginable pressure unlike she ever felt before. Issei was releasing a small amount of his killing intent that was able to sense by stronger mages. Ku fei couldn't breathe properly from killing intent and couldn't even move a single step.

No one would be able to tell that the carefree and nice person was the same in front of them. The change of atmosphere was like night and day far too different even be the same.

"Young girl…if you faint then this is the end of your journey."

Issei approached her with each step echoed as Ku Fei couldn't even focus and only the thought of dying was inside her mind. She tries desperately to move but couldn't.

'Is this going to be my end -aru!? No I still hadn't find a lover yet to continue the Ku family martial art! This is a test and I need to move!'

She pushed herself even further while Issei was now in front of her then raise his hand looming over her ready to grasped her head. In that moment, Ku fei able to move and slap Issei hand then the killing vanished making her fall on her knees covered in cold sweat.

"Haaa…haaa….I…I did…it haaa..aru."

"…that certainly surprising but not unexpected. You are quite something, Ku fei-san. Well, a deals a deal I'm willing to teach you but not today since I'm exploring the Academy."

Ku fei slowly stood still covered in sweat which was erotic in Issei opinion especially with her tan-skin. She still shaking how someone could give an absurd amount of pressure before.

"Wait a tour of the academy -Aru? I can show you around if you want -Aru!"

"Hahaha you sure are something to be able still be energetic after facing my killing intent."

"Yeah what was that -Aru?"

"Let's talk about it while you give a tour around the school deal?"

"Alright -Aru…Oh no I still have school!"

She quickly realize that it her break was over and quickly run leaving Issei who chuckled at the hyper active girl. It was contrast of the first girl he met which was Ako Izumi.

"She didn't even realize that I hadn't told her where meet or when but its alright I'll just visit her next time."

Issei then towards the world tree then quickly appeared at the location. Spatial shift was useful since it doesn't create magical girl when cast and more a innate power. He observed the tree and up close radiate thick magical energy but normal human wouldn't be able to notice.

'Lets see if I can link my heaven system with this…'

He touched the world tree instantly sensing something connected to it similar to gateway to the underworld. Issei raised an eyebrows following where the gateway lead and quite surprised of the discovery.

'I'll be damn…never new that mars had other lifeform and they seems to be made out purely energy. Interesting….well I can't connect use it for signal but I'll to make one later.'

Issei called it a day and went back to meet up with the principal to asked about his living quarters. He did asked to find a room for himself but doesn't mind having a roommate. Still it would be awkward leaving with young teens. He arrived at the headmaster offices and found him reading perverted magazine.

"Hohoho I felt a strange killing intent did that come from you?"

"Yeah sorry for the inconveniences but I found an interesting girl. Anyway I'm here to asked if theirs any news about my new living quarters?"

"Ah yes here are your living arrangement and just used this place as long you want. I was about to place you to my granddaughter but you told me not to."

Konoeman gave him a pieces of paper and a key for the room where he'll be living for the moment while frowning at the old man.

"Konoe-dono I think you should be more considerate about your granddaughters feelings. Anyway I don't want to live with a young teenage girls where their hormone is running high."

"Hohoho you guess you are right it seem age is getting into me."

"Also do you want me to meet up with the new stuff member?"

"Ah yes since you two would be working together. This what he looks like in case I forget."

He took a picture that Issei surprised to see the same boy that one time vision. Issei realize their fate is interconnect with him being the one helping him. Still he wonders how can a young child be doing this and came to conclusion about personal and tragic reason.

'A young boy pinned down with fate quite twisted story that sound. Well he does look like Milicas especially how they seem to be the same age.'

Issei remembered the child of sirzechs that he still doesn't know that wasn't Grayfia child but rather another woman of sirzechs who died that was close friend of Grayfia. He'll found out far in the future but for now went to his new home and called it a night.
