Chapter 23 - The Reforming of New Friendship!

(Uchiura Beach)

(Leon POV)

(Week 2 - Wednesday)

Childe and I decide to take Lixue with us on the beach all trying to get a decent view... "Alright let's see what you can do Lixue," Childe said smirked steady with his spear "Right!" Lixue yelled as I watched far back to check on Siege working hard as Leonidas and Ruin helping him get better in movements and speed since Leonidas told us Siege is more endurance and speedy than Legion while he's balance and Ruin is defensive...

(They are sure different types of Legions out there waiting and hiding from people...I guess since some reappearing thinking of humans hates or try to hurt them...) I thought eyes closed thinking slowly "That's it Lixue!!" Childe yelled barely blocking his attack backing up "HAAAAAA!!" Lixue yelled had ice formed over his sword slamming down onto Childe both clashed giant shockwave... "Wahah?!" Childe and Lixue both waves of panic backfired little "Lixue...was able to master most of what I know easily and is quick to learn...even shocking Childe who had more experience than us both..." I said confused expression "Lixue you have a very perfect balance defensive but you need to strike more make someone punish their own mistakes," Childe said "Right...I was kinda well second-guessing which could be well bad in life and threatening situations" Lixue said sweatdrop "Yes that's is very bad that's why we have something called Skill Bursts" I said smiled "You mean like that attack I did??" Lixue asked confused "Yep the power of snow and ice that's what Scott Gale Rose Sword knew for" I said smiled "Looks like you also have that same hidden power too" Childe said shocked expression "So do I like to say, Skill Burst!" Lixue yelled "Yeah we do sometimes to unleash energy," I said "Skill Burst! Fatal Connect!!" I yelled slamming my sword into the ground huge slash of wind-wave into the waters...

"Woah..." Lixue said shocked expression "I can control water since it's my power I was born with Ruin over there well really did change my views and want me to find a new purpose...so I have to confess," Childe said sighed "Well what we need to know?" I asked "I was sent by Mr.Zerrick to kill you...but didn't expect Ruby and Hanamaru to be there and I had to play the nice guy...not till when I slowly realized what I'm doing...and listening to Ruby speech looking at the brooch then Ruin who telling me everything...he was also was one who changed me but importantly Ruby..." Childe said "I do know the location of Mr.Zerrick and destroyed his stuff placed on me when I realized my situation. I would also want to say I never really wanted to be working for guys like Mr.Zerrick and General Rais I was forced to go to their school due to my hidden talents and very experience fighter during over Odaiba..." Childe explained his situation... "I was waiting till the right moment after training Lixue then I would do what I need to end you Leon but I chose not to...not realizing what you do and how much effort you have put," Childe said "...So I'm asking not as an agent of Cobra Reapers High...but as Childe Konoe to join your new reform Rescuers group and continue training people like Lixue to control their abilites" Childe said as Leonidas stared Lixue was shocked but looked at me "...I'm glad you told me everything that I need to know...so thank you and of course! Welcome to well 2.0 Rescuers" I said sweatdrop "Thank you Leon and now Lixue let's continue helping you mastering skill bursts" Childe said "Right..and uh odd thing for me to say but I kinda knew you were troubled about something but looks like I figure it out in the end" Lixue said smiled "Heh you're one good observer as well might be the cautious one in our new group" Childe said chuckled "Yeah I agree" I said smiled "Well I still got a long way to go" Lixue said nervously chuckled then we all laughed...

*2 Hours of Skill Bursts Training*

"HAAAAAAAAAA!!" Lixue yelled channeling energy from his sword slamming down to the ground "LET'S SEE IF I CAN COMBINE BOTH SKILLS!!" Childe yelled spinning both energy swords slamming into one spear "SKILL BURST!!" Childe yelled charged "SKILL BURST!!" I yelled charged right back both attacks clashed...."WAHAHH?!" Both yells backfired into sand... "Ughh don't tell me to do that again...ughh," I said sweatdrop "Aha..*Cough* It was your idea..." Childe said groaning "WHAT WAS THAT?!" Lixue yelled shocked "Something you shouldn't do when trying to use skill bursts...Ughh" I said sweatdrop "Violet water and electricity something you wouldn't see everyday aha," Childe said nervously chuckled "GALE GLOBE!!" Lixue yelled firing miracle firing snow forming ice particles in the area..."Well looks like taking nice heal ain't too bad" I said nervously chuckled "Well it's made to do that" Lixue said sweatdrop "I got an idea let's introduced other Aqours members to Lixue!!" Childe yelled, "Wait what?!" Lixue yelled "Good idea Childe aha we should take a decent break from overdoing it doing these costs a lot of energy and stamina," I said sweatdrop "Yeah...hmm?" Lixue asked looked at Siege who retain his champion form then back to rookie...

"Getting stronger and being able to train at a rapid pace isn't that bad..." Siege said bored expression "Well come on we should be able to check on Chika and others," I said confused expression "Right I wonder what they are up to right now," Childe said confused expression "Probably got done with festival preps. Chika text me they were gonna be in the clubroom" I said sweatdrop "Let's head on back there then! Lixue you'll enjoy talking to them they are a really interesting group of people" Childe said grin "So what's with you and Dia anyway??" I asked confused "WHAT?!" Childe yelled "Well...you were being protective over her and Ruby soo," Ruin said, "Ruin not you too!" Childe yelled as we all laughed...

"So do you got read on Mr.Zerrick?" I asked "Yeah I decide to well ambush him over in the forest which I think you know what I meant," Childe said grin "Heh well then here we go," I said chuckled went to open the door "Uh.." Both said as the rest of them are in the middle of changing into maid costumes??? "...L-Leon!?" Chika yelled, "...D-Do you ever think of knocking?!" Riko yelled, "I did and it well opens on its own..." I said sweating "...Ah, C-Childe?!" Kanan yelled "..." Childe said sweating too as Lixue confused we both stopped him and slammed door shut...

"I'M SO SORRY!!" Both yelled "Eh?!" Lixue yelled flinched "...So anyway..." I said looking at Lixue "Uh hello I'm Lixue and a new member of Leon Reform Rescuers Group..." Lixue said flinched expression "So...what's with the maid outfits..?" Childe asked sweatdrop "J-Just trying them on for helping out at a restaurant..." Ruby said flinched "...O-Oh...I think I know which one you're talking about..." I said "Yeah I go there for morning breakfast it's really delicious," Childe said nervously chuckled "..." Lixue was sitting down kept eying on You for a bit (Hmm???) I thought elbow Childe who noticed too "So did you guys find what you're looking for?" Chika asked concerned expression "Yeah and well Childe wanted to tell you all something..." I said *1 hour of explanation later*

Childe finished looked at them with a serious but calm expression "Though don't worry about it cause Childe here did tell us where Mr.Zerrick is located he's going down tomorrow but I personally expected him to not be easily fooled" I said "You'll be surprised how dumb he actually is...especially when he's full of trying to get you specifically" Childe said chuckled "Well that's good to know" I said smiled "Wait to fight him already?!" Lixue yelled shocked "You'll continue training and keeping watch here it would be bad if you well get killed on second-day training with us," I said "Although this would be a good battle experience for Lixue," Childe said "...Alright but it's up to him if he wants to go or not got till tomorrow morning 8:30 sharp" I said "Right" Lixue said thinking...
