Chapter 12: Progress

~Zack POV~

*Clank*

*Clank*

Busy with some upgrades inside the island lavatory I began to create some weapons…

Nah.

I was busy creating a similar backpack that Penny uses for my own uses as I control machines with my [Machina].

Makes the progress of fighting a lot smoother for me to handle and have Penny as my sparring partner…

It was painfully obvious how much I got my ass handed to me…

She apparently also took in fighting simulations before I got her that she managed to hand my ass over.

Ow…

Rubbing my hand I remember the sparing practice from her trying to fight using aura and learning the most I can online.

Still, though my relationship with Trivia has been going smoothly as I open up my Scroll to see what she's been up to as of late.

Techno: Yo! How have you been ice cream girl?

Neo: Same old same old Techno.

Techno: Really? Must be bored as hell in that academy?

Neo: You have no idea how bored I am. At least I can speak freely with you during classes.

Techno: Yeah heard the news of what happened during Atlas?

Neo: Nope.

Techno: Exactly. I managed to take something precious from them and made it my own ice cream gal pal!

Neo: ':(

Neo: How so?

Techno: Hahaha! You forget Neo that with my power it was child's play… before the trouble starts knocking before I got just the perfect android.

Neo: Ohoho? Really is this new android is what taking your time?

Techno: Not really but hey on a serious note do you think I can visit?

Neo: You do realize that my school will find you outright?

Techno: Nope. I have my trump cards at the ready but on a serious note… how would you like to have your life changed?

Neo: That depends on what happens in said chance?

Techno: Tell me Neo… do you trust me enough –

Neo: Yup.

Techno: WHAT! I prepared a whole speech and –

Neo: I know. It's just I like to mess with you whenever I can sweetie. ;)

Techno: You're no fun, right?

Neo: So sue me Techno. But if you do happen to find me inside the academy just try and show me this 'change' why don't you?

Techno: Haha! Challenge accepted!

Closing my Scroll I smirked as I told Penny out loud as she goes through the system, "Hey Penny were leaving! I need to check up on my friend that I tell you about!"

*Thump*

Landing down on the metal ground she smirks at this as she replied to me with a salute to me happily, "Youp! Sorry for the lack of entrance friend Zack! But are you meeting your girlfriend perhaps?"

Blushing a bit I mumbled as I left seeing a smug look on Penny's face, "Hmph! Maybe…"

Tch.

I think Penny is rubbing off on me too much.

Getting my invisibility of cloak and getting ready to meet with Neo and prepare for the final outcome of dealing with those spiders.

Time for a grand entrance and with Penny following behind at a distance it should go well enough with the tech I got.

*Click*

Now that was easy bypassing their security.

Opening the automatic lock and messing with their comms and cameras in their academy I managed to get myself inside as I texted Neo.

Getting some replies and surprise I walked around to see the cameras all shut down as it will drag the headmaster's attention as Penny follow behind.

As I get out and about I see Neo come out as I take out the cloak I smirked as she saw me wearing new stuff as I replied, "Yo Ice cream girl miss little old Techno perhaps?"

She looked very surprised that I actually came as she texted me using her Scroll as I take her for a walk around the place heading for a specific location, 'No shit. You actually came over… how? The security…'

Placed my hand over my lips as I made a shushing motion as I playfully mess with her as I replied, "Nu-uh missy. I'm keeping those secrets sealed when we get out. Besides, I hate it when people are listening thanks to those cameras of your pins."

She looked surprised as she followed me and examine her pin as she crushes it to see the actual surprise.

Glancing at my eyes as we enter the headmaster's office I responded to her as easily as I breathed, "Simple sweet cheeks. Those pins are made from the Spiders spy network in Vale spying on the Xiong family and other political figures. You can guess where all the high-class people get their info traded for blackmail right?"

She gulps at the info that I gave her.

I already contacted Hei about the hit on this place as I came to get what I needed after I had the time to prepare.

While I'm busy he deals with the school spies in the progress as he pulls his own weight getting the law enforcement to handle them.

No way I'm letting those bugs scurry around so long as I'm around.

That and every time I encounter one they leave an annoying buzz to me.

As we search around inside the headmaster's room and using my meta-knowledge of the book if I were to click here and open here…

*Click*

*Thud*

And Walla.

Open sesame.

The door I open reveals all of the Spider networks of spying on every single important family or high-class noble in Vale all under the Spider info.

Neo looked surprised and immediately realized what was going on if she searched up the Spiders family of Vale as she glanced her eyes on me as she texted, 'Who… who exactly are you Techno….?'

Smirking at this taking out a flash drive as it began to download all the contents of the info within their database I replied, "No one special. Just your ordinary nobody traveler across the way of life. Possibly lost and ensuring the safety of my friend right?"

Neo nods at this but is a bit embarrassed at me.

What can I say I do like cute girls to mess with.

*Ding*

Like that the whole entire process was done as I took the flash drive.

"Now where do you think –"

Yeah…

No.

Not dealing with a headmaster fight as I called out to Penny to take care of her.

"Penny attack now! Use Sheer Cold."

"Yessiree!"

"What!"

*Swoosh*

Like that the whole place was covered in Ice as Penny used her Winter Maiden powers to completely overpower her.

Yeah, I'm not taking the shonen path of fighting but thinking of overpowering with one-turn moves.

Hence Penny used Sheer Cold.

It was super effective as Neo looked shocked as I grab her and took her away as I grinned at her, "Well I did say to trust me that your life will change! Now, how about we make you a free time gal right?"

Neo looked at me with surprise, awe, confusion, and many others but… the smirk on her face tells me all I need to know.

She wants in and how can I deny her of that.

But first, we have to escape and meet up with Xiong Hei first before we deal with her parents.

This Holiday is almost coming to an end.

Time to earn that happy ending.
