Flamma: “Rise and shine Louise, it’s a new day and the day of the fight.”

408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bcsjgOa1I
Louise tossed and turned before getting up and meeting the day. Thoughts of the story Flamma told her yesterday still floating in her mind.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPDmwWLTAx
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHWWth5ePf
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOWaXRKxea
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbCDJoPyFb
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCzsSSCF6L
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRNgeK6XCW
While Flamma helped Louise get dressed, she asked a question.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UNdXgZYAI
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9T43aIUQh
Flamma: “I really want you to see me fight but if you’re not up for it then I’ll be fine.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNBjD5TlsK
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2nwcAG3t0
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.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyNsRGKHzmV
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IAgoE5RHg
Flamma: “She’s in a worse state than you think. But I understand.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknqFtRs5QP
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTizQVcztv
Flamma: “What a minute, where’s your wand?”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHM5mz3g6S
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwcZRUyeud
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgobUpu1ODW
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6yPO7mAuh
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZLSwOSkck
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QtDSMr7J7
Louise: “I don’t need it for now. I might even get a new one soon. Don’t worry about it.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobdEJBnR5Y
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBIZyd1aqp
Flamma: “Well, alright. Let’s get through classes fast so we can get to the fight quicker.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKknxi8tBaJ
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe2ZxzWw3uH
Louise nodded before opening the door and rejoining school life.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSHZBYYDid

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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89wEAxcCVx
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWyDNe6ZvU
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbp2Z5cohKN
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6iZrhKPfB
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1btyOq6dUM
Kirche: “Hello again, Zander. How was your trip back home?”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWn9INy4LlH
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjLKldLTg5
Zander: “Standard for the most. Maintenance, fighting demons and spending time with the priestesses. But they did notice that I smelt like another woman.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJztEJp93am
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NlFFIsOXa
Kirche: “Oh? I hope didn’t get you in trouble.”

Zander: “Nothing I can’t handle. But for both our sakes, I would recommend keeping a few feet away.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQC1jFC04F
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgosHts8PTd
She sighs before doing what Zander asks.

With that done, all that was left was the fighters. Another fight that will make history is about to begin.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRM6IPPdrEc
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07PNw3xHoa
At the same time and same place as yesterday.

408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYEaV7b4xf
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvw0pXC2wY
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUZupTVTjd
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52m3a8ZGMt
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEXNR4I0TB
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMH47MC7OS
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYd10fEc2q
Flamma: “Heh, considering the turnout, this better be a good fight.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhQjPESDRf
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA7RJM0OMdc
Dove: “Sadly, I have a feeling this will be very anti-climatic.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWHgyefidG
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOi85Z7qfkw
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.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wHVbzZ1MN

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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwih6GvXSR
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDtbqW2owPP
“Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to this fight, I am Nav, your AI speaker for this slaughter!”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRG16cefI9
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIHgMlrcsn
Another small ball, painted in yellow and black floated over to Guiche and announced a message(with his face plastered on the screens).
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZguAN65fvO
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3DDiIpcqj
“In this corner, is the Challenger- Guiche the Bronze! Say hi to the fans bub.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTw4AxHmWiQ
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHNN2oKu6l
Guiche wasn’t sure what to do but went ahead and did a quick wave and hello. It then switched to Dove and Flamma.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AJOJsoK42
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c8kUA0tCb
“And in this corner, we have the maids Dove and Flamma! Careful, they are more than what they seem.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6W4UuGO4k
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXmXJdqLXH
Dove: ‘Yeah, that doesn’t raise eyebrows Tech.’
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjSuZvfnhD
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv28STFQ2id
Flamma: ‘Cool.’
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZkpjUrMA7

The large doors to Tech’s lab began to open up slowly with shadows holding a silhouette of some figure with large bulky arms.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaGDJgmjoL
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NtWqGlWsf
“The center of this deadly trio, lady and gentlemen, welcome to the field the long-time Genius- Tech!!”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIYh8UG5Ky
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuE8zEFyob
It was then that Tech stepped out of his lab with his new Exo-Ware named Brute Fist.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnY8jp7xqX0
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqILrOCm4t
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!
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGdFCtJUDq
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDtwfspHoc
He took a few heavy steps forward and banged his large fists together, generating sparks.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ujTgAMmMR
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3Uafl7DYR
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsHbbAeYnU
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwaRyTWe1J
Tech: “So…what do you think? I made this especially for you. Like it?”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PZMBYw7cG
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIqUespHiX
Guiche: “Like it? It’s completely gaudy! You have no sense when it comes to beauty or elegance do you?”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUAXCNttXI
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3zim1RMGH
Flamma: “Well I for one, like it.”

Dove: “It’s a very…inspired design.”

408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy04CJyGm2G

Flamma: “Don’t push it Tech.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUd7gH4MMF
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdp6jLTpxPP
Guiche glared at the trio and held out his Rose wand.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wGvQBvWei
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDPR6Gxbqt
Tech: ‘Really? This guy is a complete dork!’
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqmucq13gf
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GKvMB8Ij9
Guiche: “Enough! Are we going to talk all day or are we going to fight?”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUvAxGdiWM
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSthI162fRi
Tech: “No, please by all means. Go ahead.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpy0r7HRJcN
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWLpaOr45r
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnLlTjfzaF
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Dim7kWE4g
Guiche swung his wand, petals touching the ground bringing forth 3 of his female Valkyrie golems.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6Q7Pe1HKR

Flamma: “Is that all?”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2Ajro0Sis
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJfWNYJHC1
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?”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwGefPzWvZ

408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5I6QcdWYrX

Dove: “I think it would be more impactful if we started things off.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI1gxRfZ8V
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YYMUxMU9P
Flamma: “Yeah, I’m dying to give playboy a very rude awakening.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQTdfit5ec

Guiche: “Don’t mock me!”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6YwBVO7BX
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AZhUUwaux
Guiche commands his summons to attack the two maids.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHQB6EU0bM
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JB1AKE5RW
Dove: “After you.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGqpNsO66S

Flamma: “Thanks Dove, I’ll give a good opening act.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKT5VOhqQ8
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkC4JZATtd
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbKlHMY3cqU
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKotofu62d
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdf3GmaIHHi
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipmQgvWAog
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.’
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpyCRAJ3Hq
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMJvAm3MOZ
Everyone who was not in the know, gaped at her. A mere commoner, sliced three golems summoned by a noble with just one hand.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WKPobBG3g
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoWnaznPyu
Guiche: “No! This shall not stand!”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEGul0d7Dw
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBqwjOgy0A
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfXhPiLiuM
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqU2vwuhL2
Flamma: “Six? Perfect, Dove you take one half.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHudzuHRzh
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCCoexxXE0
Dove: “Got it.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL8G6mbYoQ
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tlSvUttUy
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…
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpCclXp9f8
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlcIikKIlf
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRNaI9rNEd
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXij3uGE4AY
Everyone stared back, dumbstruck at Flamma. Guiche was nearly pissing himself in unadulterated terror.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqki2xVRgE
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyEdB14WzV
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAcU5e5JhA
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwa0pOZgfm
Dove: ‘What? She can partially transform? Wish I could do that with Dragon Aspect. Actual limbs instead of just ethereal armor.’
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUpqMl7ikL
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRqtIx5tId
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBKSxuOiSr
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dK2mnlfx8
Flamma: “That was fucking pathetic.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLT6YnW2Lq
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7v3EFS22p
Dove: “Agreed.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPznj8SLFT

Tech: “Hey! Don’t take them all out. I want to test this thing.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ztTb4h45Q
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zQHAJBHXp
Flamma: “Fine, I’m bored anyway.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqHYdWwvmk

Dove: “Your turn Tech.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRB1SrvIn5U

Tech: “Great, time to show this world what science can do.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBLIuBWFgr
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykBYKsJapK
At this point, this wasn’t much of a battle. But it got even worse when Tech entered the ring.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBObChy0mwL
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOejuOB4IE
Tech: “Come Guiche, I know you can do better than that. Set up some more golems for me.”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjg42jIQeV1
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOfq8cjPlS
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGtV44qB1H
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbGTOynCPw
Guiche: “This isn’t over. Once I’m done with you, I’ll-”
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7qjWoxaSa
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKTwjw3bDH
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyMfzPL1Llm
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQVw1k7YYG
But Tech wasn’t done.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjbXL88uym
Tech: "Time to change things up."408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDGHiP7XgM
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiNJBnMGKF
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGzKfwlUsy
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT1y1OqPxHZ
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrqBkgMVkL9
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPbfTzeRQBK
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56Mn3y0tNC
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6xnQ7cMhev
Tech: "I am a Mad Genius!"
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDdzrJykQS
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡggsTjnHBno
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAudMqBYEgj

Tech: "Activate…Kinetic Cannons"
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlq4fUn5qjl
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbliCG9qBF
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLq0dX874Z
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGiu34BEf8
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJt1agGZSXQ
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaUWVTRpVG
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDku15E6hP
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaIgUcrSUZ
He then smiled under his face plate while bringing back his right arm and calmly saying-

Tech: "Get over here!"
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAKVNDMef0
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWILu3PF0r0
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6UPWZWpGG
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3JGRHYA43
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.
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSDGdgxf52
408Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGMJyKzLZ3
Once he was right in front of him, he cracked his knuckles.

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.”

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.

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.
