Improvement

Her next battles were quite simple as she had continued to improve upon her mastery over her danger sense.

Each of the enemies movements had prompted an instinctual reaction on several parts of her body and as she made slight changes to her stance according to her experience, she was able to detect how much the feeling of danger had dropped.

As she made a wrong movement, the danger senses warning had increased while it allowed her to sense how to move her body to increase or reduce the danger.

With a couple of tiny movement of her body as she was not wasting any energy, she made minute changes to her stance as she dodged a punch or kick.

When she had made a mistake in her choice, she had no choice but to meet the opponent head on and when she had stepped into a more advantageous position, she was able to practice deflecting her opponents power with her own attacks since they would already he slightly off course.

A slight deviation from her body as they hit air and brushed past her was enough to put some off balance and she was able to turn their power against them.

She had reduced the output of her power and had slowed herself down to allow herself to practice more and she was very quick to make use of her opponents before she had thrown, kicked or punched them from the fighting platform.

Each time that she had won, she went back to study up on the Destruction Cannon technique and occasionally watched Ideo fight his opponents.

The square fighting platform had formed many cracks as the tiles were broken each time a powerful fighter stepped forward but each time they had been replaced and cleaned up before another battle took place.

As the day had ended, Alyssia was called to the room of the boss. "Have you thought about my offer?"

The boss looked over and smiled. "If it is possible for you to fix it then I would really like to talk to you about some more things."

He opened a chest which was full of files that were filled with newspaper clippings.

Alyssia looked over and sighed internally. "I see that you are a big fan of the strong, you must really love your job to be able to be so meticulous about this."

She appreciated that he ran things smoothly and had many bases covered but it was also a positive thing that he was a fan of martial arts and the strong people in the world.

To be able to do a job well and enthusiastically, a person often needed to love what they were doing and have an interest in it.

The boss had many news clippings, photos and pieces of information on many well known and less well known people.

There were many notes that had detailed estimations on their overall strength and abilities and some charts were drawn to estimate their growth in a couple of years.

He had made one for her too which had prevented her from gaining more berries through bets but he could not possibly guess her current strength and abilities based on his normal experience because she had a system to help her grow far beyond those expectations.

The boss showed a wide bashful grin. "It is just a hobby of mine."

He then turned to the page with a photo from the newspaper along with the information and analysis on her. "Hm.. so you are Alyssia Lucine but you do look a little different from your photo. How big of a voice do you have within the White Storm?"

He tried testing her out to see if she was the original but also pried into her status and power so that he could know if she was worth working with.

Alyssia calmly answered. "I am a core member and am very close with Alfred. I am a mercenary of the White Storm but I am also a recognised scientist within the Creation Union of the White Storm so you do not have to worry too much."

She presented some documents and identity cards which showed that her place within the White Storm was very high but she also presented the documentation for her noble title as extra proof.

Although the title was low, it still helped to prove that her words carried nothing but truth.

The boss sighed with relief and beckoned her. "I will show you to the room where the broken machine is so that you can take a look at it. I have an assistant waiting there for you so you can ask her for to acquire anything you may need."

She was lead to the room and the woman had greeted her again in a new and professional suit. 'It seems she received a promotion since the last time I met her. Is this the result of my actions? Never mind.. all is good so lets get to work!'

She started inspecting the broken power measuring machine and let out a sigh. "He really did go all out on it."

She could tell right away from the damage who had caused it to become broken. 'Ideo.'

She inspected it thoroughly as she used some tools to dismantle it while manoeuvring though the many traps set then she wrote down a long list of materials but at the bottom was a request for some food and drink.

The woman took it and ran out in a hurry to carry out her duties as Alyssia spent sometime rearranging the parts in preparation to rebuild it after she had found a way to replace some of the broken parts.

The woman who had left had been promoted in advance once the boss had investigated Alyssia a little but there was too little information about her so it was difficult to tell if she was actually the right person.

Upon learning that she was the real thing, he had prepared the paperwork to appoint the woman as his personal assistant as a reward.

The next morning came as Alyssia had spent some time fixing the power measurement machine before going to bed and she prepared herself for another series of battles.

Alyssia had also made some notes to pass onto the boss which contained some ideas for cooperation with the White Storm as they were stepping into the New World and bringing their business and mercenary groups with them.

She had gained even further mastery of her danger sense as her natural beast instinct had helped her to carefully navigate through the incoming dangers.

Each opponent was defeated while she matched their strength and movement speed but there would always be a large endurance and stamina difference even if she tried to match her enemy so when she had matched an attack, the opponent felt as if they were hitting a very tough object.

Those weaker who had been unprepared for the impact of their attack backfiring on them had ended the match with an injury so Alyssia tried her best to avoid injuring others again.

The final match of the day had began and a strong fist came towards her but a very small movement as she stepped to the side a little had put her in a position where it would hit the side of her face and then travel past.

As she turned her body a little and as the punch made contact with her cheek, she turned her head so that the punch would pass by her head.

She turned her body and then grabbed his arm which allowed her to toss him out of the fighting platform.

Many were astonished once again as many of the fighters were very strong and equally skilled but in front of her, it was nothing but child's play.

She could instinctively feel what were the correct movements and techniques to use against her opponent and she was also able to find ways to use her opponents power to her advantage or rebound the power of their attacks back at them.

The more that she fought against many different types of fighters that were able to adapt to combat like herself, she was slowly gaining a better understanding of how everything was coming together to form her current set of skills.

The final day came afterwards as the third place and forty place would be decided from the losers of the day before that fought Ideo and Alyssia.

Alyssia watched Ideo prepping fir the fight and occasionally looked towards the platform as she awaited the finals.

The winners were decided and Ideo was called to the fighting platform as the boss had come on stage this time. "XXX Ranked Boxer, 'Destruction Cannon' Ideo is a member of the Longarm Tribe and is also a previous champion here! Can he do it again? Or is it his challenger this time?"

Idea walked on the stage as heavy music played and a spotlight was on his body that was created with some form of Sea Snail technology.

As he had stood to one side, the boss then continued. "No Rules Martial Arts Champion of the last Karate Island martial arts competition, Alyssia Lucine! She is a member of the Mink Tribe which is rarely seen in the world but she has stated that she does not wish to go against the rules of the competition even if her abilities are natural. Please give her an applause for her braveness and her shows of strength and skill she has shown so far!"

"Woo! Alyssia Lucine!"

"Yeah! Win for the women of the world!"

"Ideo! Do not lose!"

"Yeah! She may be of a special race but you have your own advantages! She is a fool to hold back her advantages against someone like you who uses them to your advantage!"

Alyssia rolled her eyes. 'Sorry kids but you think too much.. if I used my Electro then the fight would be over in an instant. I just want to have some fun here!'
