Flamma: “Rise and shine Louise, it’s a new day and the day of the fight.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPcAfdba5e
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIteA9Gi2M
Louise tossed and turned before getting up and meeting the day. Thoughts of the story Flamma told her yesterday still floating in her mind.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcDy7jkaAe
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qCanBN3n5
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrYx4W8PpQ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUYoknkLL2
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIumbzpAXp
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmTnqYdHLy
While Flamma helped Louise get dressed, she asked a question.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJ63tvPH9X
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkNGqoZ86w
Flamma: “I really want you to see me fight but if you’re not up for it then I’ll be fine.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV70S3O9dg
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeZbeo3WIt
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.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA2JdByonVm
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu4c5okCr0
Flamma: “She’s in a worse state than you think. But I understand.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXkHi3Bmjp
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWiiuQ7lyV
Flamma: “What a minute, where’s your wand?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xyQUxupT9
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROjkFZsSz5
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NGwCQgZVn
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjCIAE4u2P
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4s6eSjC9e
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLJdlaeT7Q
Louise: “I don’t need it for now. I might even get a new one soon. Don’t worry about it.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsatZQoPCo
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs01PdOCPKA
Flamma: “Well, alright. Let’s get through classes fast so we can get to the fight quicker.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYE6FElZgM
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbamAxPFYlF
Louise nodded before opening the door and rejoining school life.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohsDh1gQC6
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKUvLFeyJn
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ51YxejT1VC
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVRiGfBAqV
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGLxyjFPzb
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKJDvcm6VD
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsY1KY5yGVv
Kirche: “Hello again, Zander. How was your trip back home?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtScQdRkisJ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1lQF7tEmT
Zander: “Standard for the most. Maintenance, fighting demons and spending time with the priestesses. But they did notice that I smelt like another woman.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeuVY2Ecrl
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuRbv6WcVI
Kirche: “Oh? I hope didn’t get you in trouble.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb52DLd7WgY
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75bQsUX6NE
She says with a seductive and sly smile.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BWphmItwB
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7fKMdDZBe
Zander: “Nothing I can’t handle. But for both our sakes, I would recommend keeping a few feet away.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUnwxEtT3R7
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8KK2puf72
She sighs before doing what Zander asks.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8J4LRu8r4i
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2x7hkPoGjb
Kirche: “Very well, I’ll do as you ask.”

Kirche: ‘For now.’
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQ4wwgK8NI

With that done, all that was left was the fighters. Another fight that will make history is about to begin.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57PskjMM6R
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70OgAumuJO
At the same time and same place as yesterday.

382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZyL0Ikyld
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYO7QhL4sj
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZVHHj2X92
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Otbk5Qdzu
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1NM2rgyc3
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0kjEB4j4x
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4vCnlIW0L
Flamma: “Heh, considering the turnout, this better be a good fight.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1uvJemlwX
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0jgtnNA3y
Dove: “Sadly, I have a feeling this will be very anti-climatic.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCTD78Uj1w
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4ccuRuehr
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.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv9J1pZUotF
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzuq536DSG
Guiche: “My Runic title is Guiche the Bronze. And this is-”

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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvapt9QHCY
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYk1oge3XZu
“Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to this fight, I am Nav, your AI speaker for this slaughter!”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NlqAnyS0u
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jjPTrSAYm
Another small ball, painted in yellow and black floated over to Guiche and announced a message(with his face plastered on the screens).
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8lW3yge2v
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmhFgt868K
“In this corner, is the Challenger- Guiche the Bronze! Say hi to the fans bub.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMaJD1qByr
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2HfTqsIDN
Guiche wasn’t sure what to do but went ahead and did a quick wave and hello. It then switched to Dove and Flamma.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqa4nnI7EMe
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnRUVylMUU
“And in this corner, we have the maids Dove and Flamma! Careful, they are more than what they seem.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qxw1x9rEu
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJQ6kPf5d7
Dove: ‘Yeah, that doesn’t raise eyebrows Tech.’
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHQT4QDzJr
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4JRlywEqQ
Flamma: ‘Cool.’
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4rDiTKKhX
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdknzRKUqxV
“But they won’t be fighting alone, no sir. Guiche foolishly challenged 3 opponents.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZrIaTIOaH
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuQUTFrHZ3
The large doors to Tech’s lab began to open up slowly with shadows holding a silhouette of some figure with large bulky arms.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZcyXLZYDv
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXzglfnNCZ
“The center of this deadly trio, lady and gentlemen, welcome to the field the long-time Genius- Tech!!”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIt4kXU5YHG
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYb27w3leS3
It was then that Tech stepped out of his lab with his new Exo-Ware named Brute Fist.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdKIlBPUAf
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOCPhgUlpd
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!
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08QS9MZVss
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dwGMJcrvx
He took a few heavy steps forward and banged his large fists together, generating sparks.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi40ZleTe6
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM6EhBMSYU
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NlfdvQeXT
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2fhhQSJE7
Tech: “So…what do you think? I made this especially for you. Like it?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH2cmwH8Rl
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xHNZPinDC
Guiche: “Like it? It’s completely gaudy! You have no sense when it comes to beauty or elegance do you?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QB68AIZ2j
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg7XTRB12Z
Flamma: “Well I for one, like it.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrXZm8RaPX
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSb9D9BAg4
Dove: “It’s a very…inspired design.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuipg04TIV
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxJFRTPfgK
Tech: “You may be the playboy but it seems I’m the one winning with the ladies.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuxvaMKIcj
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrClJfrtTH
Flamma: “Don’t push it Tech.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0hwBhBql3
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ifrmZYOqW
Guiche glared at the trio and held out his Rose wand.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw5k16BFQw
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WOYRk5CNL
Tech: ‘Really? This guy is a complete dork!’
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkYOSUsSIX
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANE57vP1hK
Guiche: “Enough! Are we going to talk all day or are we going to fight?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMz1or6yR8
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJ87zwhpzL
Tech: “No, please by all means. Go ahead.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AuFRdEvvL
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eO64R7iGL
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCJqjisQIk
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU04vcoj1mK
Guiche swung his wand, petals touching the ground bringing forth 3 of his female Valkyrie golems.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rtNvjTSLi
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFI7a87B9Pk
Flamma: “Is that all?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXEpwvhzehd
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8sLlWEHwsQ
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?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmm7CqSCfa2
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdXuOxyWPMP
Dove: “He does think we’re nothing but commoners.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqPHCxmitT
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKfvjCn0tO
Tech: “I know but…this is just sad. So how should we do this? Slaughter or turn-based?”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cGZmkH0FN
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UVehTsM4s
Dove: “I think it would be more impactful if we started things off.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMnAYS5bch
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn68mFEO0Nh
Flamma: “Yeah, I’m dying to give playboy a very rude awakening.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMsuD76MMTT
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlysR1huAUx
Tech: “Alright, but don’t rough him up too badly. I want a turn.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjg4wSmGQU

Guiche: “Don’t mock me!”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQryTzLZXnQ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzs1kW4yMgy
Guiche commands his summons to attack the two maids.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2oD683im0
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlYB83qS2K
Dove: “After you.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOvgyjIRZS
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNzBo1lVFr
Flamma: “Thanks Dove, I’ll give a good opening act.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNMGbiX3Pr
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuepeVtM6i
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeg1xHoAZl
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixLnJqEu1c
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqQIuUzJXK
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozj6Vwe7HG
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.’
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlONLyGjOo
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyaegL2inf
Everyone who was not in the know, gaped at her. A mere commoner, sliced three golems summoned by a noble with just one hand.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL2P6QgTVG
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhA8AyRXL96
Guiche: “No! This shall not stand!”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLH6aqVFG2d
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPrSQL94q5
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAluvCLf7kK
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMQJK2cesG
Flamma: “Six? Perfect, Dove you take one half.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvqJwxtqyR
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0innP1IyTT
Dove: “Got it.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItfas3akqU
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk6qKJ8rxa
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…
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9J4el8lwf
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJickB2Nr88
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXce3X13pz
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVHoPB9i7I
Everyone stared back, dumbstruck at Flamma. Guiche was nearly pissing himself in unadulterated terror.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jJeBgxMoY
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAqy7itr8G
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBpfSDnbR6
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXcHlNYHBr
Dove: ‘What? She can partially transform? Wish I could do that with Dragon Aspect. Actual limbs instead of just ethereal armor.’
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIN9yMybem
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlomiN34we
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt0qRmFCZX2
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrESvLdFErM
Flamma: “That was fucking pathetic.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YGkPREyvM
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXqRnWsap4
Dove: “Agreed.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4c4FUJZzrf
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsB7SBgxOme
Tech: “Hey! Don’t take them all out. I want to test this thing.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrLI7q0Zmb
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7siXX4GVDj
Flamma: “Fine, I’m bored anyway.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipLPipvATh
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EEMinS8Hx
Dove: “Your turn Tech.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9OZrJLqLJ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGUFnfzFsps
Tech: “Great, time to show this world what science can do.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfniZyMxzU
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvlMp8aJLD
At this point, this wasn’t much of a battle. But it got even worse when Tech entered the ring.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmqCoo4x4eu
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHld2OFUbp
Tech: “Come Guiche, I know you can do better than that. Set up some more golems for me.”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUVkLGUuT8
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKps1ldKzh
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImZ2ioc3xg
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKb5qrEII6f
Guiche: “This isn’t over. Once I’m done with you, I’ll-”
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudjD5MoBXd
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXfWhBl4zA
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddPVPIv9VI
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡig5Q4XMXQe
But Tech wasn’t done.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWMDoEA8r5
Tech: "Time to change things up."382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZCggnJdW8
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXi7FYDFS04
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8F7zT6D8p
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJk8jefl8v
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ265J5Nez0V
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08obmIVRej
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVYwaTByhp
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6E9Y5xMmt3
Tech: "I am a Mad Genius!"
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2w3g9YS1Vv
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCwakI49ot
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqt4KQ9cemT
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yMlAAUnTJ
Tech: "Activate…Kinetic Cannons"
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0idvUyoC5
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNAJY4EOG8
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLR43U7xwO
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdij6MW7VsT
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwZjl5DSc5
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ230t9AWGi6
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqUDBKBGtP
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxdpnPHj8m
He then smiled under his face plate while bringing back his right arm and calmly saying-
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBPGDXAo7v
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSMJqPZBUJ
Tech: "Get over here!"
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEAIVwNB44
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1wyy4NCAq
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZ2RTRkE9w
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9F0JhFfwvn
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.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBhx1yUO5k
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEC36ECR2oX
Once he was right in front of him, he cracked his knuckles.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuiTEHfihWl

Tech: "Gad enough? Or do you prefer I show off a little more?"
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRuqIJFD5S
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5BjrGtdbx
He says while grinning like mad under the face plate.
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tnzeaJUuC

Guiche: “I-I-I y-ye-yeild.”

Flamma coughed, getting Tech’s attention. He sighed before editing his statement.

Tech: “Fine, a draw then. Or maybe a half-point for magic. You can’t deny I destroyed more Golems.”

Flamma: “If Guiche could handle it, I’m sure we could destroy more.”

Tech: “We should settle this when I make my own small army of golems. Then we’ll see who’s better.”

With that, the battle was over. Tech began walking back to his lab while the maid duo went to rejoin the crowd.

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. 382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvAwOJ8CwUX
