Flamma: “Rise and shine Louise, it’s a new day and the day of the fight.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjMK2s9xpa
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnJi7k63Qv
Louise tossed and turned before getting up and meeting the day. Thoughts of the story Flamma told her yesterday still floating in her mind.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxn5ggxxFE
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN3TJIJvzL
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3I4o3LJjs2
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8HOUOsVvq
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8TxUPvOqV
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmv63NwiDlF
While Flamma helped Louise get dressed, she asked a question.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUi33RUhPsD
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtDO3zzobX
Flamma: “I really want you to see me fight but if you’re not up for it then I’ll be fine.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu4mVaayNn
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrmXgEV2Ry
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.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NGk4tTVfM
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQcVD5Ak0ZO
Flamma: “She’s in a worse state than you think. But I understand.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJlBwBprVC
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtu7rjlwEp
Flamma: “What a minute, where’s your wand?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDNwgv4A4k
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnSRHowtO7
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqccjzzHh7P
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBm15VPcmr
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oNtLReq5g
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91VkefMMBv
Louise: “I don’t need it for now. I might even get a new one soon. Don’t worry about it.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyG7hd3XIE
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1IjmBgwOc
Flamma: “Well, alright. Let’s get through classes fast so we can get to the fight quicker.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLO4gmvIAM
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp66wNgLwil
Louise nodded before opening the door and rejoining school life.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcxRfAd3HE
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPdUgPP4Va
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhpppXlcvt
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnm6rqTZ5m5
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrTFRAPSn1
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGYtypc3TK
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyCxxEcsiM
Kirche: “Hello again, Zander. How was your trip back home?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8jWXgbhUz
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgXmbg6A1g
Zander: “Standard for the most. Maintenance, fighting demons and spending time with the priestesses. But they did notice that I smelt like another woman.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzesshC5v2
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaG86WgvPE
Kirche: “Oh? I hope didn’t get you in trouble.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAZUYr1wsyw

She says with a seductive and sly smile.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGWp5zZEnd
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdE09dBGw3
Zander: “Nothing I can’t handle. But for both our sakes, I would recommend keeping a few feet away.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxuEENaQw0
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO5brxDokd
She sighs before doing what Zander asks.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGztPwKy6n

Kirche: “Very well, I’ll do as you ask.”

Kirche: ‘For now.’
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHdIqzCgic

With that done, all that was left was the fighters. Another fight that will make history is about to begin.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuiRDfCK4F
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2DZZIciZf
At the same time and same place as yesterday.

366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTAdhBqyGZ
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIREMWfkAnh
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXUarH58mW
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhERko0EI2
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BLmxp2tIm
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXlPaekL36q
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQczSmvMXN0
Flamma: “Heh, considering the turnout, this better be a good fight.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpzfrXEIpt
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmiyoLy9Ze
Dove: “Sadly, I have a feeling this will be very anti-climatic.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53Tc7jT9Ig
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EJPrS3IZf
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.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9Ad0p7UnJ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah6B85arlB

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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlErl8Mtrr
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaM8vx8tsxk
“Ladies and Gentlemen! Welcome to this fight, I am Nav, your AI speaker for this slaughter!”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjmbPta8KJ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1oZ8IQzUX
Another small ball, painted in yellow and black floated over to Guiche and announced a message(with his face plastered on the screens).
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGy97Kadcl
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR06bIKDKuV
“In this corner, is the Challenger- Guiche the Bronze! Say hi to the fans bub.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcsegKauAv
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ApcYZlP6Q
Guiche wasn’t sure what to do but went ahead and did a quick wave and hello. It then switched to Dove and Flamma.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKNwJGH9EH
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2aUx0wILs
“And in this corner, we have the maids Dove and Flamma! Careful, they are more than what they seem.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPlbfTZxdsO
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2p8PFkHqKP
Dove: ‘Yeah, that doesn’t raise eyebrows Tech.’
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA0fWC0DQN

Flamma: ‘Cool.’
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOwl2FZ8VI

“But they won’t be fighting alone, no sir. Guiche foolishly challenged 3 opponents.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoM7Q8EgNCi
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GyaYlokYx
The large doors to Tech’s lab began to open up slowly with shadows holding a silhouette of some figure with large bulky arms.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuBqew64IB
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDe7BGtXzdY
“The center of this deadly trio, lady and gentlemen, welcome to the field the long-time Genius- Tech!!”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ07gaZcW4rf
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHwOoQF30j
It was then that Tech stepped out of his lab with his new Exo-Ware named Brute Fist.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkgxYi4JIJ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeIHdu4iG31
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!
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsokWHkwaym
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeBY2wuyjc
He took a few heavy steps forward and banged his large fists together, generating sparks.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHYNwtHQ3W
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3eSr94W1wT
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkpem03rhup
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgdLMI9YP5
Tech: “So…what do you think? I made this especially for you. Like it?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmueXYPkdwX
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi3qFWAXHq
Guiche: “Like it? It’s completely gaudy! You have no sense when it comes to beauty or elegance do you?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1NH97GZi4
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxc9bQS2Se
Flamma: “Well I for one, like it.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYRdVR3uPe
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpxOGW7umSk
Dove: “It’s a very…inspired design.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGNseFcFiu

Tech: “You may be the playboy but it seems I’m the one winning with the ladies.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrH6LFdxLj
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhzu8IJyLa
Flamma: “Don’t push it Tech.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutAFYFXuG5
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJausrUKlg
Guiche glared at the trio and held out his Rose wand.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfgNCIlxdi
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszbSLF23Al
Tech: ‘Really? This guy is a complete dork!’
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjd7RlYpx9t
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOWzr5IiTG
Guiche: “Enough! Are we going to talk all day or are we going to fight?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2GG8QzSnz
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJDiLVx8M5
Tech: “No, please by all means. Go ahead.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOmtqNzD8d
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNFzZ071ujL
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCN9bcn8L6
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgazsaYrRH
Guiche swung his wand, petals touching the ground bringing forth 3 of his female Valkyrie golems.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIuGV7lFt8U
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4c6mG04ft
Flamma: “Is that all?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJW1rZ5ejlA
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4nZg2XVZw
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?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiiqMgKVOR
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40YoxpaAxb
Dove: “He does think we’re nothing but commoners.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOqU2C4cc9
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqD5uv6vDA2
Tech: “I know but…this is just sad. So how should we do this? Slaughter or turn-based?”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRgB367sa5
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKHoiZaHwq
Dove: “I think it would be more impactful if we started things off.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf66b8CDhi3
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGO52zABJf
Flamma: “Yeah, I’m dying to give playboy a very rude awakening.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMG8AOnciY
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDz8fq9dlq
Tech: “Alright, but don’t rough him up too badly. I want a turn.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB0kJFOnVOV

Guiche: “Don’t mock me!”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNJlfMwz6Z
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6dIxiTEcAV
Guiche commands his summons to attack the two maids.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS2NpjPrYQ
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdRVkArQ53
Dove: “After you.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xTdDOyPAv

Flamma: “Thanks Dove, I’ll give a good opening act.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxoI06xWsn
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZdbm4iteF
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j1stpGd41
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ExhiuFQFL
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgX4TQylhp
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVD6PwmtwtL
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.’
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAqb8NaDYK
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGygcjQgH2
Everyone who was not in the know, gaped at her. A mere commoner, sliced three golems summoned by a noble with just one hand.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LvQbZtM2T
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2z4561GfWO
Guiche: “No! This shall not stand!”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDJhK7of0f
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmoURBM0K5
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaunqJuRwT
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEThn4ogDOj
Flamma: “Six? Perfect, Dove you take one half.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQqLrhtFRY
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RaPMUjJAf
Dove: “Got it.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAHmq3QFhH
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmeAV8RIbp5
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…
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RHIHJ30pF
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhxGjnJ6qp
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbEPIxrkbPt
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMZ88TYKjM
Everyone stared back, dumbstruck at Flamma. Guiche was nearly pissing himself in unadulterated terror.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLh4FgOHrx
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR42BklgLKg
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5C6unvwfFD
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPB0JLF8ao
Dove: ‘What? She can partially transform? Wish I could do that with Dragon Aspect. Actual limbs instead of just ethereal armor.’
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEKMHKYHkG
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2w8eYhTwzv
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5cXTh5hQA
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaKgzdqhM1
Flamma: “That was fucking pathetic.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5GR00hCkh
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoLV3WopXs
Dove: “Agreed.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qmlQpxbZ2
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MWP3k6Xbm
Tech: “Hey! Don’t take them all out. I want to test this thing.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0dcIBM3Yl
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23yqjSjGo5
Flamma: “Fine, I’m bored anyway.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡariYp6zO38
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNQXAI1OuU
Dove: “Your turn Tech.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeMirOzgUP2
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrH9xD6XjO
Tech: “Great, time to show this world what science can do.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyHLJjdSTW
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLi9xeL9fL
At this point, this wasn’t much of a battle. But it got even worse when Tech entered the ring.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLBhgfHgwk
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLWZuZOEwI
Tech: “Come Guiche, I know you can do better than that. Set up some more golems for me.”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd73xUYICma
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtHQdhRxtTu
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1PpKPqPDi
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn1ji45CIK
Guiche: “This isn’t over. Once I’m done with you, I’ll-”
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lddsaHSJS
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCF5ZGU70Y5
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgG6VCkxmj
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCzHqztUM3
But Tech wasn’t done.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBVLJh6R9g
Tech: "Time to change things up."366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNSaEy8UrM
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUUmeJ2mxH
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSM3N9BCnI7
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLC7S4ktRfj
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7yks99JaK
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCu7NykgGEH
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7ykSP3ahV
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZSZVLe5qc
Tech: "I am a Mad Genius!"
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYpYDzKV3d
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTpj4EIjEL
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhvFYuyi51

Tech: "Activate…Kinetic Cannons"
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaLsAjNZ5P
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FIhDqGNqh
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ysC09Kkxv
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vG9TsCpEk
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AoYd7tog6
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PC6JjNkFz
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVstohouc3Z
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ235V5uIVQ1
He then smiled under his face plate while bringing back his right arm and calmly saying-
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcK8CD7HwD
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFBamPz3QQ
Tech: "Get over here!"
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9PMxCMOJ7
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lCvKgtom8
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzT4nYtrAE
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnpLXSN0yj
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.
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3kuAZarLz
366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRyzpbaJ3BU
Once he was right in front of him, he cracked his knuckles.

Tech: "Gad enough? Or do you prefer I show off a little more?"

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.”

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.
