Flamma: “Rise and shine Louise, it’s a new day and the day of the fight.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANADGelJiCyXC
124Please respect copyright.PENANAaWYFEZfnnV
Louise tossed and turned before getting up and meeting the day. Thoughts of the story Flamma told her yesterday still floating in her mind.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA50o1vn5oF3
124Please respect copyright.PENANA1yvar07WKe
At first, she was mad and then deathly worried. She was a commoner and Tech was apparently sick. What chance did they have against a noble? But thanks to her experience with Aeron and reassurance from Flamma, she decided to trust her familiar.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8sCRnsFIB
124Please respect copyright.PENANAqxYejyOPl1
Didn’t make her any least frightened for her. She did not want Flamma to get hurt. The thought made her weak in the knees. But she didn’t let these new feelings show. Flamma is still her familiar and she is still the master. She can’t let weakness show.
124Please respect copyright.PENANADsf9NmVNNK
124Please respect copyright.PENANA8LK83MzqHa
While Flamma helped Louise get dressed, she asked a question.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAonB9zHwkR3
124Please respect copyright.PENANAlSxbLC0AQk
Flamma: “I really want you to see me fight but if you’re not up for it then I’ll be fine.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAwDRT9kjduV
124Please respect copyright.PENANAxVanauSAyF
Louise: “Don’t underestimate me, I’m perfectly fine. I can’t stay in bed forever. Besides, I need to get my hands on my fake.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAMaH6HedbSa
124Please respect copyright.PENANATcz8PPieIK
Flamma: “She’s in a worse state than you think. But I understand.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANA865VjDkXBo
124Please respect copyright.PENANAPVja2pwOk7
Flamma: “What a minute, where’s your wand?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAU9NPyCON4c
124Please respect copyright.PENANA5YCjGMg5bd
Louise froze when she remembered what happened to it. She doesn’t want to lie to Flamma. There should be nothing but trust between a familiar and their master. But…she promised Aeron.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAYVhRcxM4rq
124Please respect copyright.PENANA54G8bBCct1
As much as she liked Flamma, Aeron did far more for her. He taught her magic and freed her from her fate as a Zero. She had no choice.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA8PNek54Kf4
124Please respect copyright.PENANA2bqbzOO48f
Louise: “I don’t need it for now. I might even get a new one soon. Don’t worry about it.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAUVXbnW0NJ1
124Please respect copyright.PENANA6oN7l1g4jW
Flamma: “Well, alright. Let’s get through classes fast so we can get to the fight quicker.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAOWn6EGMTrz
124Please respect copyright.PENANAMXtzrF66JQ
Louise nodded before opening the door and rejoining school life.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAsHl5vjfy72
124Please respect copyright.PENANANsPC180M58
The day went by without much problem. It was almost normal. People were surprised by the structure built by Tech but a quick explanation by Raskreia calmed them down.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA9sPp9wj6NJ
124Please respect copyright.PENANAzPIOoECnK0
Time flew by until it was time for the fight. Everyone was in attendance. Even Jake was sitting in a tree facing the fighting arena. Aeron is also in attendance, but in a place no one can spot or sense him.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAi0h03UuxBg
The only person not here was Zander. But it didn’t take long for him to also show up. He opened a portal nearby and joined the crowd. Kirche almost immediately went to his side.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA8gIhF10ffJ
124Please respect copyright.PENANAtnZZ6kxHR6
Kirche: “Hello again, Zander. How was your trip back home?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANACxrGmlz4l1
124Please respect copyright.PENANAdTY2LrCHuQ
Zander: “Standard for the most. Maintenance, fighting demons and spending time with the priestesses. But they did notice that I smelt like another woman.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANA9CMm4xC5Xa
124Please respect copyright.PENANAxOwtiVJ38Z
Kirche: “Oh? I hope didn’t get you in trouble.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeDt541EiUd
124Please respect copyright.PENANA40P8XZn6wU
She says with a seductive and sly smile.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAWUpAN7JJhQ
124Please respect copyright.PENANATkHSYTwvHy
Zander: “Nothing I can’t handle. But for both our sakes, I would recommend keeping a few feet away.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAYknsu6oXV8
124Please respect copyright.PENANATXlWsTb9EB
She sighs before doing what Zander asks.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAwah1BGUqwb
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZ3SlLhBeo7
Kirche: “Very well, I’ll do as you ask.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAcRseQ3bKUP
124Please respect copyright.PENANACSfo91TXJX
Kirche: ‘For now.’
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4gn9tiZh9f
124Please respect copyright.PENANAlGFV2ibksM
With that done, all that was left was the fighters. Another fight that will make history is about to begin.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAAFW9BdGSFN
124Please respect copyright.PENANAbr8rxV1vVA
At the same time and same place as yesterday.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAsf6gS0jt38
124Please respect copyright.PENANAg3zDN7Zsge
The courtyard near the lab was filled. In addition to those mentioned, the student body, teachers, and servants alike all joined to spectate. Even Osmond was watching with bated breath. They all were wondering how these three would perform.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAQO8VhaljOA
124Please respect copyright.PENANARg7UBhUbOj
No one has seen Tech or Flamma fight. Only a few knew Dove was Dovahkiin but even those few were curious how she would fair in her human form.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAMvTdEZwwQU
124Please respect copyright.PENANAiekBKTPCea
At one end was Guiche, dramatically posing for the audience. On the other end was Flamma and Dove. Flamma had a unique red cleaver while Dove wielded a normal sword.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAdTyDCsKqrN
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeDTbl0GSQ6
Flamma: “Heh, considering the turnout, this better be a good fight.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeWVOSColLA
124Please respect copyright.PENANAD93bBLMHS0
Dove: “Sadly, I have a feeling this will be very anti-climatic.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAAcD3rOicKn
124Please respect copyright.PENANA5FnJRzQf8f
Guiche: “I commend you two for not running away like some people. But since one of you seemed to be a coward, it’s up to me to begin.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAilSIpmLcoF
124Please respect copyright.PENANAya1VS0hOjT
Guiche: “My Runic title is Guiche the Bronze. And this is-”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAuDxlxKJ5X5
124Please respect copyright.PENANAgPTaN2IVkM
Before he could finish, a small round silver ball came out of the lab and floated over the place while projecting a few holo screens for all to see. Even more of these balls floated out and took a place all over the combat area. They then sent their live feed over to the one hanging over them before an enthusiastic voice boomed over them all.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZqJeD7aO6q
124Please respect copyright.PENANAm2XYlOI761
“Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to this fight, I am Nav, your AI speaker for this slaughter!”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAri1FQHzcuu
124Please respect copyright.PENANAt7T0JQfyKh
Another small ball, painted in yellow and black floated over to Guiche and announced a message(with his face plastered on the screens).
124Please respect copyright.PENANAo9niX0Do7g
124Please respect copyright.PENANAe5qPIUfTOJ
“In this corner, is the Challenger- Guiche the Bronze! Say hi to the fans bub.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAgfyJ57V12Y
124Please respect copyright.PENANA1Duvyl0uf5
Guiche wasn’t sure what to do but went ahead and did a quick wave and hello. It then switched to Dove and Flamma.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZYDcWh389Q
124Please respect copyright.PENANAHSS8QLaYqH
“And in this corner, we have the maids Dove and Flamma! Careful, they are more than what they seem.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAulG7h8sqMf
124Please respect copyright.PENANAyxuCBtDRzN
Dove: ‘Yeah, that doesn’t raise eyebrows Tech.’
124Please respect copyright.PENANAkUDvU9Q7Ve
124Please respect copyright.PENANAMniYQytCDu
Flamma: ‘Cool.’
124Please respect copyright.PENANABYlejnQZ7S
124Please respect copyright.PENANAhWIXLT7aYV
“But they won’t be fighting alone, no sir. Guiche foolishly challenged 3 opponents.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAxXhfBcxfY3
124Please respect copyright.PENANAvrWmRx3mOl
The large doors to Tech’s lab began to open up slowly with shadows holding a silhouette of some figure with large bulky arms.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAEb66enG1y5
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4vLFnwOPQ3
“The center of this deadly trio, lady and gentlemen, welcome to the field the long-time Genius- Tech!!”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAI6oBLXDE5x
124Please respect copyright.PENANANJ7u9Nez8F
It was then that Tech stepped out of his lab with his new Exo-Ware named Brute Fist.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAS8t2tLr3l0
124Please respect copyright.PENANA0bAlpJFZIV
The arms were a dark green while its body was mostly black with dark green armor parts on its chest, back, head, feet, shins, and knees. His eyes were covered with a black visor and his grin could be seen showing his confidence. He was pumped for this!
124Please respect copyright.PENANAyH0q3VUV2k
124Please respect copyright.PENANAPDDBPdc6M7
He took a few heavy steps forward and banged his large fists together, generating sparks.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAHvjz21yXEE
124Please respect copyright.PENANAV1xvp97I0C
After his grand entrance was made, he told the visor to fold back into the helmet so he could look at Guiche with his eyes.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAwRizD2hhcI
124Please respect copyright.PENANAzQ4yP9564Y
Tech: “So…what do you think? I made this especially for you. Like it?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAVAb0sZ5Z4F
124Please respect copyright.PENANABsKlIdXSVj
Guiche: “Like it? It’s completely gaudy! You have no sense when it comes to beauty or elegance do you?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAfLb6YXsa0S
124Please respect copyright.PENANAGoUAlYTr4n
Flamma: “Well I for one, like it.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANApjLjwXKZO4
124Please respect copyright.PENANA3o3b7JLkpU
Dove: “It’s a very…inspired design.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAHqxn2cLEtc
124Please respect copyright.PENANARXm8mvColj
Tech: “You may be the playboy but it seems I’m the one winning with the ladies.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANA8yvR578u29
124Please respect copyright.PENANAmlwKapKCY6
Flamma: “Don’t push it Tech.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAJr4xonncjo
124Please respect copyright.PENANAsLVV2QPIvS
Guiche glared at the trio and held out his Rose wand.
124Please respect copyright.PENANALVHZjbgy2P
124Please respect copyright.PENANAQIb9utMhOQ
Tech: ‘Really? This guy is a complete dork!’
124Please respect copyright.PENANApFlNv6VZ9e
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeBjASm8EQz
Guiche: “Enough! Are we going to talk all day or are we going to fight?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAQQ5anh7ZRk
124Please respect copyright.PENANAEQK2pLfJ4s
Tech: “No, please by all means. Go ahead.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAPPHSeeaxFQ
124Please respect copyright.PENANALmIfq6DvbT
He said smoothly before doing a mock bow and sending the mental command to bring down the visor and shut the mouthpiece. Tech is ready for battle.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAWLh5Qz2CVV
124Please respect copyright.PENANAoirtTPB4L9
Guiche swung his wand, petals touching the ground bringing forth 3 of his female Valkyrie golems.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAxVWBrf8DOJ
124Please respect copyright.PENANAA4pmIP8K6I
Flamma: “Is that all?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANA2C2WLBWvGk
124Please respect copyright.PENANAtdrPKKFhN6
Tech: “Same, not very impressive. They’re made of bronze, empty inside and there’s no extra support. Is this guy…even taking us seriously?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeIsUbpJeEt
124Please respect copyright.PENANAmIHm1wkWzo
Dove: “He does think we’re nothing but commoners.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeIGdTtDIqe
124Please respect copyright.PENANAnP387N2UYV
Tech: “I know but…this is just sad. So how should we do this? Slaughter or turn-based?”
124Please respect copyright.PENANA1EKiUocn8u
124Please respect copyright.PENANANoC9R6rL5P
Dove: “I think it would be more impactful if we started things off.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAs9qfX0BQA7
124Please respect copyright.PENANAkRmHxL8vll
Flamma: “Yeah, I’m dying to give playboy a very rude awakening.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANANFCWE8qfsp
124Please respect copyright.PENANALoNaKHdO8r
Tech: “Alright, but don’t rough him up too badly. I want a turn.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZFOtJQbPYR
124Please respect copyright.PENANAnwqKPdEmJL
Guiche: “Don’t mock me!”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAmPmEZHMYug
124Please respect copyright.PENANA3pxeK5xBFV
Guiche commands his summons to attack the two maids.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAIhdQGJDCiC
124Please respect copyright.PENANAfVD57oQgLE
Dove: “After you.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAgui4AaipOL
124Please respect copyright.PENANAan6RKGoqqk
Flamma: “Thanks Dove, I’ll give a good opening act.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAM185Et7R4s
124Please respect copyright.PENANAHgUDj0jqzG
Flamma walked forward and watched as the three Valkyries rushed toward her. Before they could come in for a strike, Flamma’s cleaver started to glow brightly with a malevolent red color. Steam surrounded the blade in a screen.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAhNxHy0PAUe
124Please respect copyright.PENANA8D34DxbXFf
Flamma gracefully danced around the attacks from the Valkyries, leaving them wide open for attack. The rune on her left hand glowed the same color as the blade she was using. With a single swing using inhuman speed, she sliced the golems in half without much effort.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA2nM0LQI3MZ
124Please respect copyright.PENANAahhuL7xSbN
Flamma: ‘I don’t remember swinging my arms that fast in my human form. As far as I know, I can only do this in my dragon form. Oh well, might as well use it to my advantage.’
124Please respect copyright.PENANAb283WGuzrD
124Please respect copyright.PENANAtJiuHo4Yhq
Everyone who was not in the know, gaped at her. A mere commoner, sliced three golems summoned by a noble with just one hand.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAI98RM6CGFd
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZze4LmZpcV
Guiche: “No! This shall not stand!”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZWZt5dmOLZ
124Please respect copyright.PENANAlnLT8mLpSE
The blond declared while frantically waving his wand around. Six petals fell to the ground, summoning six more golems. This only caused Flamma to chuckle darkly.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAnT7OFSpPA1
124Please respect copyright.PENANAKMhpOaTlkl
Flamma: “Six? Perfect, Dove you take one half.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAXsKT3BYeGL
124Please respect copyright.PENANAwCONSV3hR3
Dove: “Got it.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAm7vuhc6ifc
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeN6GmQzVCm
Dove dashed into the fray, faster than most could see. She quickly and efficiently tore apart 3 of the golems. As for the other 3…
124Please respect copyright.PENANAqQz8aEEiOu
124Please respect copyright.PENANAkv1fhSf3Dz
A deafening chorus of metal crashing against metal echoed in the air. The crowd blinked before they turned to where the golems were. The last three were a mangled mass of wrenched armor parts, crashed into the wall between the wind and fire towers.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAWtqYR6d2N6
124Please respect copyright.PENANA1Tg3s5qPQB
Everyone stared back, dumbstruck at Flamma. Guiche was nearly pissing himself in unadulterated terror.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA1YQvNK4mO0
124Please respect copyright.PENANAoewsPLkaFT
Above Flamma’s ass, was a massively scaled tail with metal spikes on its top and concentrated into a massive club of pain at the end. The tail swung upward before slamming down onto the dirt, causing a small tremor.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAfxtVrRbGps
124Please respect copyright.PENANA6GirRE88ie
Dove: ‘What? She can partially transform? Wish I could do that with Dragon Aspect. Actual limbs instead of just ethereal armor.’
124Please respect copyright.PENANALd1YGAqJuH
124Please respect copyright.PENANAEVcKJWxRvO
But that wasn’t all, Flamma’s cheeks were covered in scales. The whites of her eyes were now abyssal black. Her mouth was curled into a smirk before she spoke with a volume that boomed louder than her voice would seem to manage.
124Please respect copyright.PENANALxT6v6yemL
124Please respect copyright.PENANAQOBUKvboGE
Flamma: “That was fucking pathetic.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAwrzdXXnEcy
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4e29INYb3s
Dove: “Agreed.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAU0lPQ7OjQS
124Please respect copyright.PENANAD51AipR3SA
Tech: “Hey! Don’t take them all out. I want to test this thing.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAFbjul53eiy
124Please respect copyright.PENANAhf04Bm4uER
Flamma: “Fine, I’m bored anyway.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAbpEILCgk6Z
124Please respect copyright.PENANAOmFHdy2pQE
Dove: “Your turn Tech.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAJa7nikSzyH
124Please respect copyright.PENANAclvHuJx1cw
Tech: “Great, time to show this world what science can do.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAvt8LGbGmXm
124Please respect copyright.PENANAp7k0l0Op2U
At this point, this wasn’t much of a battle. But it got even worse when Tech entered the ring.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAPbrURxqZE8
124Please respect copyright.PENANAfwgpkySfkj
Tech: “Come Guiche, I know you can do better than that. Set up some more golems for me.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAL9aO6Ye4xu
124Please respect copyright.PENANAQ86ok7xPIu
Guiche swallowed any raising fear and summoned the rest of his Valkyries. His rose wand now fully out of petals. 13 golems now faced Tech.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAD2m3JhnSLx
124Please respect copyright.PENANARvEARPmn7F
Guiche: “This isn’t over. Once I’m done with you, I’ll-”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAvizT8vD8nA
124Please respect copyright.PENANAjy19r6JJfQ
Tech did a mock yawn, cutting Guiche off. Tech charged and rammed one down before stopping on it with his heavy left foot, crushing it in one go. Then he pushed his right arm to the one in front of him, caving in the golems chest.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAtIaBi82cPP
Next, he ducked and spun left, swinging his arms out to push the rest back. Then, using that momentum, elbowed another with his left arm. Using the bent back arm, he grabbed another. Once he had a hold of its smaller frame, he threw at 2 nearby golems. Knocking two down with the one. He continued toying with and destroying the golems with no issue.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4RnWg51QPL
But Tech wasn’t done.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAaD02vaYAQ3
Tech: "Time to change things up."124Please respect copyright.PENANAnzNEQyP3CM
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4nVZRpY9r0
Both hands then shifted quickly into big maces. Tech swung these new weapons at four charging golems. Needless to say, they were torn to shreds by the force alone.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA84J60eewro
124Please respect copyright.PENANAYPfxhmt3Vb
When Guiche saw the carnage, he ordered his remaining four Golems to back away so he could think of an effective plan. But coming up with one was hard. He thought the boy was merely bluffing about it being "made just for him" but now…now he's paying for it.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZWyU4Sbtvh
124Please respect copyright.PENANAxXdsbpO7kI
As for Tech, he was grinning like crazy. In the frame of 45 seconds, he had demolished 8 of his golems with ease. Admittedly they were faster than they appeared, but he was even faster. Brute Fist was designed to be a brawling Exo-Ware; so he gave it fast reflexs and proximity sensors to warn the user of an incoming object or person. Faced with his unmatched intellect, he had to say it.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAVmUOUfDvHF
124Please respect copyright.PENANAzT6Sc0MfGz
Tech: "I am a Mad Genius!"
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZnL55G4R0Z
124Please respect copyright.PENANAWokPgZjfae
Deciding that Guiche’s three-second break is up, Tech attacks again, but with another little surprise. Sure it was a Brawling Exo-Ware, but that didn't mean it didn’t have long-ranged weapons.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA7BNw5H4CCh
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4j7BmJDWf8
Tech: "Activate…Kinetic Cannons"
124Please respect copyright.PENANAS1zYCMyzq2
124Please respect copyright.PENANA5bhcyjUVUk
The two hands then transformed into cannons. He then loaded them with compressed air rounds, so as to not rip through the golems and into the observers.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAT8RwrYgPks
124Please respect copyright.PENANADB9RVC1moX
He took aim at the first golem and fired, sending it flying with a pushed in chest. He then fired his other arm at one with a shield raised. The shield did take the brunt of it, but it also caved in and bent the arm back and hit the wielder in a way that made it useless.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAS5CX6up2Br
124Please respect copyright.PENANAbwsMvMahyG
His first cannon then reloaded after his second shot and fired at the next, ripping off its legs. Done with the cannons, Tech reverted his hands back to normal. But he wasn’t done.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAZisQlXZOJx
124Please respect copyright.PENANA14dHgbLeoT
He then smiled under his face plate while bringing back his right arm and calmly saying-
124Please respect copyright.PENANAjlta72HzKk
124Please respect copyright.PENANAjOqZXcHjcC
Tech: "Get over here!"
124Please respect copyright.PENANAPD6ruGR47x
124Please respect copyright.PENANA75Ag33SN5k
The hand was then trusted forward. It flew with a laser chain holding it and used it to grab the golem. Guiche was so in shock that he didn't have time to tell any commands to his Valkyries at all.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAobd5xV3JDu
124Please respect copyright.PENANAp9NOmD53tN
When his valkyrie was pulled back to Tech, he merely crushed it and tossed it aside. Job down, he calmly walked towards a now petrified Guiche.
124Please respect copyright.PENANADU9dCN0nLR
124Please respect copyright.PENANA5h97MMBj2F
Once he was right in front of him, he cracked his knuckles.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeCJYg75vz9
124Please respect copyright.PENANAVzZl9Bjav9
Tech: "Gad enough? Or do you prefer I show off a little more?"
124Please respect copyright.PENANA2qjEXVXzd2
124Please respect copyright.PENANAVoXNtgkIOf
He says while grinning like mad under the face plate.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4hEa9R1ARg
124Please respect copyright.PENANAokkJ8i0utG
Guiche: “I-I-I y-ye-yeild.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAs3ZWiOevRn
124Please respect copyright.PENANAvj6ngCWAkO
With that Guiche passed out from exhaustion and simulation.
124Please respect copyright.PENANA3bgllFJdt9
124Please respect copyright.PENANAeBiO9NA007
Tech: “Technology: 1, Magic: 0.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAfWsJcCeEYC
124Please respect copyright.PENANA7H3XBw1Foi
Flamma coughed, getting Tech’s attention. He sighed before editing his statement.
124Please respect copyright.PENANAVCoiry7p4f
124Please respect copyright.PENANA4VxVJbfS0G
Tech: “Fine, a draw then. Or maybe a half-point for magic. You can’t deny I destroyed more Golems.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAdhVfpJrQ77
124Please respect copyright.PENANA1gZu9jzXmR
Flamma: “If Guiche could handle it, I’m sure we could destroy more.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAB1GPrghjP1
124Please respect copyright.PENANAXkIZnsFDp7
Tech: “We should settle this when I make my own small army of golems. Then we’ll see who’s better.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANADwpu83VemU
124Please respect copyright.PENANAgkeHJkr0TR
Flamma: “Looking forward to it.”
124Please respect copyright.PENANAtzHMcGdNi1
124Please respect copyright.PENANAbThbQq3jEZ
With that, the battle was over. Tech began walking back to his lab while the maid duo went to rejoin the crowd.

The crowd was stunned by the display of power. Some for different reasons than others.

For the nobles, this was a wake-up call. Sure, Flamma wasn’t fully human but Dove and Tech were human to them. Despite being commoners, they had the ability and/or resources to challenge them.

Jake was surprised by just how advanced Tech’s arsenal was. If his world was that far ahead, even he would have trouble with it.

Tabitha originally followed Kirche just out of habit. She didn’t really care about the duel. But now she’s glad she came. Tech has caught her eye. The knowledge the boy must have to build all of this in one day. It’s truly fascinating.

Zander has seen many things but even he was impressed by the technology on display. He’s interested in what else Tech can do. Maybe he can even help his own realm.

Kirche only came here to spend more time with Zander. She didn’t care about this fight one bit. Tech did impress her but Flamma and Dove drew her attention more. She couldn’t help but see them as rivals for Zander’s affections. And with the skills they’ve shown, Kirche may have to step it up a notch to keep ahead.

Raskreia was possibly the only one not too surprised by the events. The only thing that did surprised her was Flamma’s dragon nature. It was much like her own, there’s even an air of divinity to her. Rask will definitely ask her about it later.

Osmund was deeply worried. Tech has shown to be very dangerous if trifled with and his full abilities haven’t been shown. With the support of Louise’s familiar and a maid with sword skills far above the norm, there is much to worry about.

Aeron wasn’t impressed by the maids but Tech could be trouble. He can tell that he will get even stronger in the future. Worse still, he has a good relationship with Flamma. The only other familiar that has some pull on Louise. Flamma alone was bad enough but her with Tech will be an issue. This is one weed he feels the need to cut quickly.

Miss Longuevuille was unsure what to think. In the beginning, she thought the old man made a mistake betting his money on the commoners. She was greatly mistaken. This had her shaken up for sure.

Colbert was amazed by Tech’s abilities but his focus was on Flamma’s runes. They were quite strange and somewhat familiar. He will be paying a visit to the library after this.

Louise was amazed. Yes, Tech was incredible and Dove impressive. Both beings she summoned and that is something to be happy about. But her focus was on Flamma. She wasn’t a commoner, but somehow part dragon. Her first familiar, the one that accepted her.

She could have easily refused like the other dragon but instead chose her despite having the power to refuse. Everyone else probably saw her abyssal eyes and felt fear. But for Louise, she thought they were the most beautiful things she had ever seen.

But more than any of the ones before, the one most affected was Siesta. It was a dream. A part of her didn’t want to believe what she saw because it was so impossible. But it happened. In all rights, she helped make history happen. But at the moment, she didn’t care. She was touched that they would go so far for her. She has truly never had friends like them.

She ran up to her fellow maids and jumped into their arms, giving them the warmest hug she could manage. They readily returned it.

Tech heard her and turned around. He waved to them to follow him inside. The maid trio went inside and the door shut behind them. As it does, Louise can’t help but feel a bit left out.

But she pushed down any jealousy and dispersed alongside the rest of the crowd. She had another familiar she could talk to. Maybe he’ll join her when she goes and confronts her fake.

Author Note: I'm alive and in a better state than before. I hope you like the length expansion of this story. But sadly, this doesn't mean I'll be able to update this on the regular. I hope I can since I love writing it but life will be a bitch so you know how it is.

Tell me what you think of the story so far and the implied pairings. I'll see you next time, if there is one. Thanks for reading. 124Please respect copyright.PENANAiNUCyB2UmL
