Chapter 18. Sword fighting?

Of course, no one was going to discharge me from the hospital yet, because I was still with a memory problem at that time, but it was necessary to take some action…

After calling Kaji Uyato on the phone using a business card that was in my phone, I asked him to come to me to discuss something.

Nila and Miku were already in my room at that moment, because Nila still stayed in my room overnight quite often, but Nila herself had already called Mika, because she thought she would need her help.

A few hours later, Uyato-san joined us. We started a heated discussion of the action plan.

Nila suggested a surprise attack on the lair where Ari was hiding. Mika didn't mind either.

But Uyato-san decided to establish his own order. He wanted to first come to an agreement with Ari in a good way, that is, just declare peace to him, and if he did not agree, then attack.

The girls, of course, were outraged, but my decision confirmed the idea of Kaji for negotiations.

The problem remained small. I had to escape from the hospital. In fact, it was not difficult for me, because I can run very fast with my card.

Ari's lair was located in the building of one of the abandoned libraries, it was indicated on the map that was attached to one of Mimica's letters.

When I got there, I had to wait for the others, because none of them could run as fast as I could.

After about half an hour, they still managed to get to me. We went inside the building.

It wasn't like any other library I'd been to before. It looked like a very large maze with piles of books scattered everywhere.

Seeing the light at the end of this corridor, I began to gradually approach it, the sisters Otsuko and Kaji also quietly pulled up behind me. Finally we found a place that was free of scattered books.

But the happiness did not last long. The place was filled with a bunch of people who were already standing with weapons in their hands and ready to kill us. But suddenly, from the end of the hall, I heard the voice of some guy who sounded like mine…

The voice was definitely mine, I can't even confuse it with anyone… He said: come here, you ignoramuses.

What kind of appeal is this? - I thought , and even with my voice ... but what kind of impudence is that…

After walking a little further down the hall, I noticed a silhouette exactly resembling me, and after a few more steps, I saw exactly the same person, but only the eyes and hair color differed.

His hair was black and gray. His eyes were the color of a ruby... his clothes looked like clothes from a store with cosplays of the main villains.

- Ho-ho who do I see, it's my double Akishito Akato. - said the "main villain"…

- Let's make a bet, if you beat me in battle, then I'll let go of the Mimicry, because you came for it right? And I won't follow you everywhere anymore.

I nodded my head, started preparing for a fist fight, flexed my arms, shoulders, and so on.

But he stated the following rules of battle:

- The battles will be on swords, everything is very simple, but in order to increase the strength of your sword, you need to take a good opponent, because you will have to kiss her to increase the strength of your sword. In the same way, the victory will be fought until the two participants in the battle admit defeat.

Of course, he had strange conditions, but still a kiss was the most difficult condition that could be achieved by strengthening, because I am terribly shy.

Nila screamed at the top of her voice for me to take her as an opponent and I had to do it.

Ari took Mimicry with him as an opponent, after which a mini arena moved out instead of dusty bookshelves. There were racks with our statistics on it.

My statistics were certainly not the best, because I am the most ordinary in strength, I could only influence the outcome by the power of the cards. I didn't kiss Nila, but she, in turn, kissed me on the cheek, which still gave her a plus to strength. Mika watched from the podium, which was pushed out instead of other bookshelves. Mika's grin wasn't the friendliest, as if she was ready to finish me and Neela on the spot.

Ari was already standing and almost licking his Facial Expressions, even it was hard to call it a kiss, but his statistics still grew from this. And so the timer gave a countdown and ten seconds later the duel began.

The most reasonable solution, of course, was in my case to use my cards in the right direction. Map "Speed. Protection. The star." just came in handy for me here, because I will be almost not vulnerable if I use it. I was thinking until I noticed that Ari was pulling out a card with exactly the same name and looking at me with a satisfied grin.

Where did he get it from? I thought for a moment, although in my position it was better not to think about it yet. It was necessary to come up with a battle plan.

Nila used her card "Duplicitous Star" thereby turned into a Mimic that it was even difficult to distinguish it from the real one, thereby at an unexpected moment she hit Ari and he became clearly worse.

It was a very good decision because at that moment, I just needed to think carefully about everything in order to finish the battle correctly. According to the rules, it is necessary to bring the opponent to a state of complete despair.

A plan came to mind, though simple, but quite reliable. Merge! After all, Nila and I have the ability to do this, thereby we can make a competent merger and get power from the sword and from my cards at the same time.

I went up to Nila and whispered in her ear: "Let's unite." It sounded very ambiguous and Nila started telling me that I was a pervert and the like, but after a few seconds she realized what I was talking about and took my hand and we united.

The sword was heavy to lift, but because of the strength that Nila got, I was even able to lift two swords at a time.

Two enemies for one turns out now. It seems to be more complicated, but at the same time easier. After flying a few meters forward , making a filling on the Facial Expressions , I still managed to touch her and she said: "I'm completely desperate."

Thus, we were left with one enemy, who almost did not move after that blow from Nila. It was not difficult to finish him off. He showed off more... he resisted the pain for a few minutes before accepting defeat, but eventually it ended with the words "I'm desperate."

And so, in fact, our contract had to be fulfilled, Mimic let go and no longer pursue us, but still Ari forgot about the deal and said, "Grab them!"

We ran with Mimica and Nila as fast as we could, Mika also ran to us, but Ari and his subjects were no longer visible. We ran into some depth of the library. It was very dark and damp. It is immediately obvious that this room has not been entered for a long time.

After shining our map, we noticed that there was only one single book in this room and it, after being illuminated by the light from the map, began to glow itself.

We opened it and something unexpected happened… We opened the book on a fragment with an inscription in Japanese, which translated as "Alternative World" and we were immediately thrown back and we found ourselves in the same room, but the sensations were different. The atmosphere itself and even the mirror that wasn't there before… I decided to look in this mirror and saw that I looked like a girl… And then I remembered that I was connected to Nila together and immediately moved away from this stupid thought and disconnected from her. But it wasn't really her... Nila started to look like a guy... the sweatshirt looks like my old one, only the inscription is different… I looked in the mirror and saw that I had become a girl…

Just like all the other girls, they became the opposite sex, Mika became a beautiful blonde, and the facial expressions almost did not change externally, except that the facial features changed a little and freckles were added.

That's how our adventures in the unknown world began.
