Flamma: “Rise and shine Louise, it’s a new day and the day of the fight.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANApL7Ep6k9QO
332Please respect copyright.PENANAPJr4rlL3PA
Louise tossed and turned before getting up and meeting the day. Thoughts of the story Flamma told her yesterday still floating in her mind.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAqJ5fHY3czK
332Please respect copyright.PENANA25rAKw7zjz
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANALwGB9egnLt
332Please respect copyright.PENANAye0yqYpWNe
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAdkqnpvYBGj
332Please respect copyright.PENANA3EmIVTNvXO
While Flamma helped Louise get dressed, she asked a question.
332Please respect copyright.PENANALn5q5Z1UnX
332Please respect copyright.PENANA8z4VOBzzur
Flamma: “I really want you to see me fight but if you’re not up for it then I’ll be fine.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANA9mJigebbZM
332Please respect copyright.PENANARfsgXmVfIb
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.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAEjZdqZyXhq
332Please respect copyright.PENANAR34Fo4JnmH
Flamma: “She’s in a worse state than you think. But I understand.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANA61v436QzU4
332Please respect copyright.PENANAuBzdTvRg4o
Flamma: “What a minute, where’s your wand?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAJMX3zmBllG
332Please respect copyright.PENANAnSVxhcNeVw
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAJzjUuOFmeF
332Please respect copyright.PENANAsQkCrqkQ88
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAudDSCqayyV
332Please respect copyright.PENANAJGLCSjINTd
Louise: “I don’t need it for now. I might even get a new one soon. Don’t worry about it.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANALXH2s5lEfi
332Please respect copyright.PENANAkRGrVc6ase
Flamma: “Well, alright. Let’s get through classes fast so we can get to the fight quicker.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAuImNklepUp
332Please respect copyright.PENANAGPgVTlI9Cf
Louise nodded before opening the door and rejoining school life.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAmtKTJdR80a
332Please respect copyright.PENANAIE4G6jI3bF
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANA2GVcjtMEDA
332Please respect copyright.PENANACe2C89N12R
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANANmMWR3ZkDM
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANApxc3QpvDod
332Please respect copyright.PENANAqhTGWFjxXP
Kirche: “Hello again, Zander. How was your trip back home?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAU54siEardm
332Please respect copyright.PENANACK4Y4gbeuM
Zander: “Standard for the most. Maintenance, fighting demons and spending time with the priestesses. But they did notice that I smelt like another woman.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAurZZNoNM4i
332Please respect copyright.PENANAC24AFP2QrP
Kirche: “Oh? I hope didn’t get you in trouble.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAOyCmpjZ9UB
332Please respect copyright.PENANAEtjL12OAES
She says with a seductive and sly smile.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAAz0kHoDjeG
332Please respect copyright.PENANAjSEtw0r0Wn
Zander: “Nothing I can’t handle. But for both our sakes, I would recommend keeping a few feet away.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAFp6iE7apoM
332Please respect copyright.PENANAinFm2eosJY
She sighs before doing what Zander asks.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAnjbXzCqv0m
332Please respect copyright.PENANATMcRbR42Ka
Kirche: “Very well, I’ll do as you ask.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAzJToYsIvtG
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQShHHp9UPw
Kirche: ‘For now.’
332Please respect copyright.PENANAdmJYkTx1dp
332Please respect copyright.PENANAcMNj7u9eVr
With that done, all that was left was the fighters. Another fight that will make history is about to begin.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAK9ZXCl7HBy
332Please respect copyright.PENANAucnSR5pzub
At the same time and same place as yesterday.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAjcgfbNLiP0
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQuxxkBeLCD
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANA4iYdfa60fY
332Please respect copyright.PENANAc4btTdKinE
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAuIj5Fir5qT
332Please respect copyright.PENANA6Vab6MVlwe
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANA3oIZSRgzAA
332Please respect copyright.PENANAXUg7AiVu8M
Flamma: “Heh, considering the turnout, this better be a good fight.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANA59rokCiIqZ
332Please respect copyright.PENANAOxYP2K1QyK
Dove: “Sadly, I have a feeling this will be very anti-climatic.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAW5lVtNILT0
332Please respect copyright.PENANAwN3rF8IGBw
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.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANArtnVWxKsdl
332Please respect copyright.PENANAG6UWxloefQ
Guiche: “My Runic title is Guiche the Bronze. And this is-”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAzzaXHow2RG
332Please respect copyright.PENANAVVBlMzPe0U
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQIbSrTmO7j
332Please respect copyright.PENANA7xzUfLVXhR
“Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to this fight, I am Nav, your AI speaker for this slaughter!”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAC1DdXq4ih3
332Please respect copyright.PENANA4f6rrlB0s3
Another small ball, painted in yellow and black floated over to Guiche and announced a message(with his face plastered on the screens).
332Please respect copyright.PENANAKKv7pUYLX4
332Please respect copyright.PENANATIu5vwc18P
“In this corner, is the Challenger- Guiche the Bronze! Say hi to the fans bub.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAyWWTYq6uzo
332Please respect copyright.PENANAY8hvfkBmp4
Guiche wasn’t sure what to do but went ahead and did a quick wave and hello. It then switched to Dove and Flamma.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQLVfajZNaa
332Please respect copyright.PENANAM0Fg782IaS
“And in this corner, we have the maids Dove and Flamma! Careful, they are more than what they seem.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAiWukb34NUH
332Please respect copyright.PENANAfkU3ijXFc4
Dove: ‘Yeah, that doesn’t raise eyebrows Tech.’
332Please respect copyright.PENANATEi0Rsrejx
332Please respect copyright.PENANAwKQkdIyJzm
Flamma: ‘Cool.’
332Please respect copyright.PENANAfqRH65R1jk
332Please respect copyright.PENANA6SExM0ig3L
“But they won’t be fighting alone, no sir. Guiche foolishly challenged 3 opponents.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAaGOx8j9F1k
332Please respect copyright.PENANAtBA3ikrmrm
The large doors to Tech’s lab began to open up slowly with shadows holding a silhouette of some figure with large bulky arms.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAfegeDsNTJj
332Please respect copyright.PENANANC3OX31KXs
“The center of this deadly trio, lady and gentlemen, welcome to the field the long-time Genius- Tech!!”
332Please respect copyright.PENANADC5ktW9exK
332Please respect copyright.PENANALx7RS0JpyH
It was then that Tech stepped out of his lab with his new Exo-Ware named Brute Fist.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAGG5QimYl3i
332Please respect copyright.PENANApTYnPY8CFz
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!
332Please respect copyright.PENANAPxlAGpYKXY
332Please respect copyright.PENANATb8sx0QThV
He took a few heavy steps forward and banged his large fists together, generating sparks.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAopwPQyQ3SS
332Please respect copyright.PENANAsXVvQt74nv
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAvG4bQHgIFt
332Please respect copyright.PENANAFuX4aJWNDY
Tech: “So…what do you think? I made this especially for you. Like it?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAGD2NIlPwdP
332Please respect copyright.PENANAN25u7W17DI
Guiche: “Like it? It’s completely gaudy! You have no sense when it comes to beauty or elegance do you?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAGNZlyk42tk
332Please respect copyright.PENANA5JRHaxj7og
Flamma: “Well I for one, like it.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAJGdF7L9yTb
332Please respect copyright.PENANAm9NhpPlYUp
Dove: “It’s a very…inspired design.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAYaUWthRzsh
332Please respect copyright.PENANAIqnGA78Sqi
Tech: “You may be the playboy but it seems I’m the one winning with the ladies.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAaIcnteb2Uu
332Please respect copyright.PENANAfVnFQEpjkn
Flamma: “Don’t push it Tech.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAeFNdvQYhCq
332Please respect copyright.PENANAO1GsMcq2CI
Guiche glared at the trio and held out his Rose wand.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAhQaTy3tbtR
332Please respect copyright.PENANABDVir8VbgL
Tech: ‘Really? This guy is a complete dork!’
332Please respect copyright.PENANAmihQ4qp1qE
332Please respect copyright.PENANAVBK24NWDUa
Guiche: “Enough! Are we going to talk all day or are we going to fight?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAHGBxzM1765
332Please respect copyright.PENANA8ECKIiIC6l
Tech: “No, please by all means. Go ahead.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANA23QjrC42Ui
332Please respect copyright.PENANAitRRwnq5l4
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAo8DwBSSn2u
332Please respect copyright.PENANAhJFa4iveZW
Guiche swung his wand, petals touching the ground bringing forth 3 of his female Valkyrie golems.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAPB8x0EZRAE
332Please respect copyright.PENANAiNKuiarVpM
Flamma: “Is that all?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAK4SMlCtqKj
332Please respect copyright.PENANADDh8kBTxgL
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?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAYMOvYyPaiq
332Please respect copyright.PENANApyP4wxI7XB
Dove: “He does think we’re nothing but commoners.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANABANaeqb28d
332Please respect copyright.PENANAqy19yMIp9c
Tech: “I know but…this is just sad. So how should we do this? Slaughter or turn-based?”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAzZ0E0rwZpC
332Please respect copyright.PENANAFrEJxPbn6C
Dove: “I think it would be more impactful if we started things off.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAPpYOm9JsQT
332Please respect copyright.PENANALKotd62hNs
Flamma: “Yeah, I’m dying to give playboy a very rude awakening.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAgy9yXw4Sl5
332Please respect copyright.PENANAO1MEySY7mU
Tech: “Alright, but don’t rough him up too badly. I want a turn.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAWPBXNIbqad
332Please respect copyright.PENANAUtdyQiNgtM
Guiche: “Don’t mock me!”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAXqxwMcA0bV
332Please respect copyright.PENANAUTCzZXbDpr
Guiche commands his summons to attack the two maids.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAUJqf84Lbc1
332Please respect copyright.PENANA5kaKZlLFUP
Dove: “After you.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAb9R7jig2IC
332Please respect copyright.PENANAGC03k0GUwv
Flamma: “Thanks Dove, I’ll give a good opening act.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAyVntgHCDkM
332Please respect copyright.PENANALFI5dONuDD
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAi3QjLYEzVM
332Please respect copyright.PENANA4ZM6OqPqTD
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAZyHOpqekm2
332Please respect copyright.PENANA9o93rcHBjW
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.’
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQ6AplWsf9U
332Please respect copyright.PENANAL4lZeW4lV4
Everyone who was not in the know, gaped at her. A mere commoner, sliced three golems summoned by a noble with just one hand.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAdMalj5nUrh
332Please respect copyright.PENANARMkqL1fygk
Guiche: “No! This shall not stand!”
332Please respect copyright.PENANA0826RgJpet
332Please respect copyright.PENANAazR1jGLmIg
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAaM0WnUzyHy
332Please respect copyright.PENANAmVXGaxnzbL
Flamma: “Six? Perfect, Dove you take one half.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAzWrSMYqKJ0
332Please respect copyright.PENANArbezmR49tX
Dove: “Got it.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5OiPeUUxr
332Please respect copyright.PENANA5dclcOLpsS
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…
332Please respect copyright.PENANAVpEZ944m5a
332Please respect copyright.PENANAkmZTTAeKwo
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANABC4Lvs6Nms
332Please respect copyright.PENANAI9OD3OZjEk
Everyone stared back, dumbstruck at Flamma. Guiche was nearly pissing himself in unadulterated terror.
332Please respect copyright.PENANA39YN0NX69s
332Please respect copyright.PENANAGLUCrS3GHl
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQmIv7pV7HB
332Please respect copyright.PENANA2eC8clNfah
Dove: ‘What? She can partially transform? Wish I could do that with Dragon Aspect. Actual limbs instead of just ethereal armor.’
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQKTKx1TpzG
332Please respect copyright.PENANA7vbmMFNw8x
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANA0WqzrZh5WK
332Please respect copyright.PENANANwLYPQPcm8
Flamma: “That was fucking pathetic.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANA4BKPDmOioU
332Please respect copyright.PENANA8Rg3psBGxv
Dove: “Agreed.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAAbEIZbuZv1
332Please respect copyright.PENANAvjU8sKe8Sx
Tech: “Hey! Don’t take them all out. I want to test this thing.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAGm0cZ7T4fo
332Please respect copyright.PENANA7yw25pev8C
Flamma: “Fine, I’m bored anyway.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAfe01rjB6pS
332Please respect copyright.PENANAEqEFGMDDxl
Dove: “Your turn Tech.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAz6hHuKoVzL
332Please respect copyright.PENANAUrYYbLSx1n
Tech: “Great, time to show this world what science can do.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAlJsbrw37wH
332Please respect copyright.PENANASiaHh0GwK8
At this point, this wasn’t much of a battle. But it got even worse when Tech entered the ring.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAvs8CUS6hP6
332Please respect copyright.PENANAawVD8WJ02r
Tech: “Come Guiche, I know you can do better than that. Set up some more golems for me.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAXVyKlMhDFy
332Please respect copyright.PENANAV5opj59PHb
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAtQRQEyNteM
332Please respect copyright.PENANACuYsuHXe1l
Guiche: “This isn’t over. Once I’m done with you, I’ll-”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAWX4t4uwkHO
332Please respect copyright.PENANAp46FWHlV36
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAJ7T9QIG7i2
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAq8i8fA7cW9
But Tech wasn’t done.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAjaRsQXkHcv
Tech: "Time to change things up."332Please respect copyright.PENANAypRWJ8OxJw
332Please respect copyright.PENANAOPAn721pft
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAU2v5pmpWYD
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQOeF8FjEr4
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAly68cAG9aQ
332Please respect copyright.PENANA2Z3d8Y58Lp
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAqLzF0hUtmS
332Please respect copyright.PENANAoHdYAk7vgz
Tech: "I am a Mad Genius!"
332Please respect copyright.PENANAcYiLAZYpKY
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQYM1a9czAA
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAp2meaLuNPd
332Please respect copyright.PENANANSI1y0VqTr
Tech: "Activate…Kinetic Cannons"
332Please respect copyright.PENANAsPyu0E4bKD
332Please respect copyright.PENANADawSinNjYU
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAYCLS4PHt83
332Please respect copyright.PENANA2y2giTbtEW
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANA4Xxcqd6N1t
332Please respect copyright.PENANAZqdmjqO4OV
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANA82112pZrhk
332Please respect copyright.PENANA66yKOvw1j5
He then smiled under his face plate while bringing back his right arm and calmly saying-
332Please respect copyright.PENANAcGvixG0v9A
332Please respect copyright.PENANAiN4sLPQOlz
Tech: "Get over here!"
332Please respect copyright.PENANAa0jRPLw6AD
332Please respect copyright.PENANAl2nIQ2fQ5U
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAw27tS3x4nE
332Please respect copyright.PENANA977RjDbVyI
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.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAxteEpgdWyG
332Please respect copyright.PENANADOuQEALqdT
Once he was right in front of him, he cracked his knuckles.
332Please respect copyright.PENANADxefTL2OBQ
332Please respect copyright.PENANAQePmQlv9cY
Tech: "Gad enough? Or do you prefer I show off a little more?"
332Please respect copyright.PENANAXB28HE1hJM
332Please respect copyright.PENANAz9LfYDie0e
He says while grinning like mad under the face plate.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAX1qHwvDkrC
332Please respect copyright.PENANAlhQJyVYEpR
Guiche: “I-I-I y-ye-yeild.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAIMdSA0KUR3
332Please respect copyright.PENANAwmMw28WpdX
With that Guiche passed out from exhaustion and simulation.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAXKaOxIFLxc
332Please respect copyright.PENANAsqAiEs13Gs
Tech: “Technology: 1, Magic: 0.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAf5WbFdvV3k
332Please respect copyright.PENANA4c9NBKWNwL
Flamma coughed, getting Tech’s attention. He sighed before editing his statement.
332Please respect copyright.PENANAqmp4pHnfAB
332Please respect copyright.PENANAONglQ1sqkK
Tech: “Fine, a draw then. Or maybe a half-point for magic. You can’t deny I destroyed more Golems.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANABeAGb3zPsw
332Please respect copyright.PENANAJC571rBJtB
Flamma: “If Guiche could handle it, I’m sure we could destroy more.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANANp5gmiPs6j
332Please respect copyright.PENANAexQwyw8Z9Q
Tech: “We should settle this when I make my own small army of golems. Then we’ll see who’s better.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAsMZR9B2kI9
332Please respect copyright.PENANAZ1cdYgNQYr
Flamma: “Looking forward to it.”
332Please respect copyright.PENANAbOQFVRqqI4
332Please respect copyright.PENANA08Lual7Puf
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. 332Please respect copyright.PENANABDxC8WOFVv
