Acting as an innocent guy

[Later]

Solo took Luka and Alice away from the mansion and near San Ilia, Alice turned conscious while Luka stopped having stomach problems.

Luka: W-Why did you eat her like that…?

Solo: Meh, just wanted to do it…

Alice: *Sob* You're a monster…

Solo: And you are the fucking Monster Lord, now stop being a pair of pussies and stand up.

Alice was crying from the scene she just seen in the mansion while Luka was trying to stand up, but he fell on his back from puking too much.

Solo: *Sigh*...

[Tomorrow]

Alice and Luka needed one day to completely recover and starting to talk to Solo like nothing happened, right now they were camping, and Solo was teaching Luka another time.

Solo: Ok, this technique is divided in 2 versions, but I will teach you only the first one, because you aren't able to use the second one.

But you need to be careful, because this is an hand-to-hand technique, so you will be able to put it off only with really strong enemies, like Granberia or others, since you don't want to kill anyone.

Luka nodded and gulped.

Luka: 'If it is so dangerous like he said… Then I should follow his suggestion and not use it on normal monsters…'

Then Solo walked towards a really big boulder that he took in the way after splitting a small mountain with Crisalida, and put himself in a stance.

Solo: You need to concentrate your will in your fist, and hit like this…

Then Solo punched the boulder, but instead of shatter completely, it broke only in a small part while the boulder flew away, breaking countless trees.

Luka and Alice had their mouths open from shock.

Solo: This is called Ikkotsu, the second is called Sokotsu, but it will be for another time, this technique is able to give small damage, but it is capable of making your target feel all the rest of the damage in force, that will push him or her away like it happened to the boulder.

If I used a normal strike, the boulder would be crushed, but with this technique, it is still ok and flew away of some kilometers, do you get it?

Luka dumbly nodded and then Solo came near him with some big sticks, which he planted near him.

Solo: ok, now try to use that technique in those sticks without breaking them.

Luka recovered from the shock and excitedly said.

Luka: Yes!

Then Luka started his training while Solo guided him.

[tomorrow]

They were in the Forest of Spirits, Luka was able to learn Ikkotsu, even if it did have a really little effect now…

Alice: Along with Sylph, there are lots of fairies and elves that live here. But they usually mean no harm to humans… But the fairies can be a bit mischievous.

Luka: in other words, there shouldn't be any fighting. Alright! Let's go!

Luka sighed in relief while he stepped in the forest with Solo, and then noticed that Alice wasn't coming.

Luka: Hey Alice, why aren't you coming?

Alice: What do you think would happen if suddenly the monster lord would parade in the forest while being watched from fairies and elves?

Solo: ...She's right, well, let's go Luka.

Luka: Nn.

Then Alice waited for them while they entered the forest. While they were walking, they encountered some fairies, but they ran away once the were near Solo, as if his presence were scaring them.

Solo: 'Mh, it may be because I am an Arrancar…'

?: Wait a moment!

Solo and Luka stopped moving and turned towards an elf, who called them.

Elf: You are scaring those poor and innocent fairies!

Solo: 'I feel like imitating a bit Aizen…' So you are racist against my race?

Elf: E-Eh? N-no, I were saying that you are scaring them…

Solo: It's obvious, it's because I am an Arrancar, but judging me only for that is being racist, and I thought that Elves were gentle…

Solo pouted at her, while she panicked.

Elf: W-wait a second…!

Solo: For what? So you can tell me how much I am hated from everyone here? So you can make me feel bad for something I didn't even wanted to do?!

Luka was sweatdropping at his acting skills, while the Elf was feeling incredibly guilty

Elf: ...Please, don't get angry… I'm sorry... I didn't meant it… If you want to forgive me, I can do anything…

Luka/Solo: 'That escalated quickly…'

Solo: Thank you… Then can you tell me the direction where Sylph is? My friend needs to borrow her powers.

Elf: I see… No one has come to meet Sylph for hundreds of years. But I'm still sorry for what I said to offend you... It's just that since another unknown monster came here, we are a bit on the edge…

Solo: Then since you helped me I will help you…

Elf: No, sorry, don't take it as an offense, it's just that I can't leave our problems to people like you, who have nothing to do with it…

Solo: It's ok, me and my companion Luka will help you anyway.

Luka: 'How in Illias' name did you turned the situation upside down?!' Y-Yeah, we will help you.

Elf: Then thank you very much… You just need to go forward and you will meet with Sylph

The Elf left them while waving her arm at them. Then Luka turned to Solo and said.

Luka: How did you even did it?

Solo: Did what?

Luka: Trick her.

Solo: Meh, decades with Aizen as your boss will do that to you… Now let's go to Sylph.

Luka nodded and followed Solo in the forest, while being avoided from fairies.
