Ch 42: Karrions’s delegation.

"Rimuru there's nothing to do nya." Nekra says

"How about you go spar with Hakurou? He's been wanting to fight you for awhile." Rimuru says

"Is this you trying to get out of training nya? You knyow they would have none of that back in Sparta nya." Nekra says with a warning look in her eyes causing Rimuru to shiver.

"Spartans were crazy nya they beat their own kids and encouraged them to steal nya." Nekra says with a mixture of contempt and respect.

"But you are Roman right?" Rimuru asks

"Of course nya as barbaric as the Spartans May have been, they were worthy advisories. Well the few that were not mercenaries were." Nekra says

"I'm going to go spar Nya." Nekra says getting up and leaving.

Rimuru looks at Yuki.

"It's fine... she gets like that she had fragmented memories of her previous life and tried to use her knowledge skill to find out who she used to be. Problem is she got all knowledge retaining to a 1000 year old empire including its fall." Yuki says

"So she has the knowledge of... are you sure she's okay?" Rimuru asks

"I hope so... I really do, I love her with all of my heart you know." Yuki says with tears in her eyes from not knowing how to help nekra.

"I'm sure we can figure something out." Rimuru says with a smile while on the inside she has absolutely no clue what to do.

======================

"So, are you going to draw your blade?" Hakurou asks

"You know what sure, let's have this be a test of skill rather than pure strength nya." Nekra says drawing her gladius and a just a her wrists bracers.

"Well ladies first." Hakurou says with a bit of humor.

"How honorable just don't regret that nya." Nekra says as she dissapears from her spot there is the sound of metal clanging.

"Nya? You blocked that impressive nya." Nekra says as Hakurou returns an Iai swing from above.

Nekra deflects the strike breaking his posture with her left wrist guard while swinging her right arm left in a upwards direction. Hakurou leans to his right barely dodging it as the blade takes off a few strands of hair. Hakurou quickly retreats backwards.

Meanwhile they are starting to draw in a crowd.

"Nya? Not bad." Nekra says a little suprised most people wouldn't be able to dodge that quickly after having their stance broken.

"You baited into that.... that was impressive." Hakurou says sheathing his sword as there seems to be this full 360 degree barrier around him.

"Nya, intresting, super interesting." Nekra says as all of her instincts tell her there is some danger to entering that circle.

Nekra launches herself at Hakurou as everything seemed to be going in slow motion.

Nekra sees a blade coming towards her as she manages to use magic to move in the air as the blade passes above her.

Quickly entering Hakurou's space since it's harder to use a longer weapon at a closer range she uses a mixture of martial arts techniques to disarm him quickly.

"Hahahahaha." Hakurou laughs laying on the ground.

"Nya, good fight." Nekra says holding out her hand to pick the guy up.

Several people are clapping.

"That was impressive." A man with a black leopards tail says.

"Thanks nya." Nekra says

"So we are Lord Leon's delegation here to negotiate a deal.... Guys I want her." Phobio says point at Nekra.

Suddenly there is a storm of magicules as Phobio is no longer in his spot but instead several hundred meters away buried in the ground.

"Did he say something dear?" Yuki asks hugging Nekra from behind.

"Nya? I don't think so, he's just a neutered cat nya." Nekra comments about the panther beast man.

Several people are sweating nervously having heard that.
