Shiliu

Noire and Kallen are walking toward an abandoned military base in the wasteland

Noire: there are originium spots here and there but there are no originium slugs that can be seen

[Origium spots appears when the originium activity of a certain area goes up because of originium wastes or deposits of infected Individual]

Kallen: isn't it dangerous for people to go near originium spots?

Noire: of course, that's why we shouldn't go close to it... you can see the radius of originium spots if you use your Energy Vision

Kallen: awesome!!!

Noire: if you fully mastered the energy arts you can start to make a new branch of techniques based on your fighting style

Kallen: That's interesting... what are your original techniques Noire?

Noire: let me show it to you!

Noire hops and dissapears

Kallen: (is that her full power? I didn't see her silhouette even for a split second)

Noire: Tada~

Kallen: ehh?!

Noire appears with an originium slug on her hand that is inside of a red crimson sphere

the originium slug looks like a giant spider that emits a red glow

Noire: this is my Isolation Barrier it will completely isolate the entity inside removing their senses

Noire: and inside of it is an Infused originium slug or you can call it exploding giant spider

Noire: also mutants can become an originiutant if they are exposed to originium too much

Kallen: Huh?!

Noire: don't be surprised four major viruses attacked the blue planet

Kallen: I think the world is called Terra

Noire: I don't care I want to call it blue planet and you can't make me change it

Kallen: you are very stubborn in weird places

Noire: *hmph*

Kallen sighs at her childish outburst of Noire despite being with her for almost a month she discovered her cuter and cuter than ever

despite Noire being older than her she can't see her as an elder

Kallen: why are that your original techniques?

Noire: I can use these infused slugs as a substitute bomb!!

Noire throws the sphere in the origin spots and the sphere shrinks and explodes making the origin spot destroyed by it

Kallen: you can destroy Originium spots?!

Noire: it's like math, negative + negative = positive

Kallen: you are really smart Noire

Noire: of course! as a person that has many jobs, it's natural for me to be this smart

Noire: wait the ground seems restless...

Noire: Hmm?

The ground shake making Noire and Kallen alerted

When they both move away from their spot and a giant metal worm reveals itself

Kallen: what is that?!

Noire: that is an automatic tunnel maker that is been corrupted and also do you know that their acid can melt anything ranging from soil to even-tempered metals

Kallen: isn't that dangerous?!

Noire: not at all, this is so old model that it can easily scrap by a single punch of yours

Kallen: didn't you thought me that they evolve too?

Noire: aw... I didn't think of that

the giant metal work slams its body towards Noire but she casually stops it by hand without flinching

Noire: Its easy to be fair

Kallen: That's because it's you!

Noire: let me dissect this worm for a bit and let's continue

Kallen: *sigh* do what you want

Noire pulls out the entirety of the metal worm and the worm is whopping 20 meters long

Noire grabs her sword and red lines suddenly appear on the entire body of the worm

Then out of nowhere the metal worm suddenly got separated neatly and smoke suddenly appear

Noire: dissapears and the metal parts dissapears too

Noire appears near Kallen

Noire: Yosh! let's go

Kallen just shakes her head and follows Noire

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Noire: Hmm... this I very abandoned alright, there's so much destruction happened so it takes a long time

Kallen: why are we here again?

Noire: for your training of course meant you are going to survive here surviving bullets from the swarm of enemies

Kallen: That's kind of reckless...

Noire: In all honesty, this is probably very easy for you because this model only used energy type bullets meant the external energy shield can easily block it without danger

Noire: also you have air step that is very frankly can destroy an ordinary platoon of soldiers

Kallen: then does that mean...

Noire: you are freakishly strong despite being a human

Kallen: then I'm pretty sure you are freakishly strong despite being a vampire

Noire: Nah... I'm fairly normal because I am a progenitor

Kallen: you are what?!

Noire: Ah! it must've been the wind let's move along now

Kallen: don't say an NPC's dialogue just because it's convenient!

Noire continues to walk unarmed while Kallen protects Noire from threats and Noire flickers just to get the body parts of the fallen threats

Noire: I just recently realized that if you let these enemies continue to evolve they will become an Ascendant

Kallen: ehh?

Noire: Ascendants are corrupted that got self-consciousness and act more humanoid than they originally are

Noire: But also Constructs can become Ascendants too

Kallen: wait... this is confusing...

Noire: I'll compile my data of all enemies and give it to you so you can rest assured

Kallen: you should've done that in the first place

Noire: I guess...

Noire: Well let's continue

They encountered drones, turrets, minefield robots, and some old androids too

But Kallen easily disposed of them and Noire is busy picking their carcasses

when they meet a robot that wields two swords

Kallen shoots them but they repelled the bullets with their sword

Noire: it seemed the enemies are getting tougher

They rushed towards Kallen but she easily dispatched them with her kicks and punches

Kallen: are we entering deeper?

Noire: yes! I need more materials for future projects which means I'm training you and Collecting some materials at the same time!

Kallen: why do I think it's leaned on the collecting materials

Noire: do you know that there's a highchair there will be a virtual sim underground here

Kallen: I see now! as expected of you Noire!

Noire: it can't be helped I'm a genius after all

Noire leans into a structure and fixes her invisible glasses

she froze midway because her body instinctively moves like its very normal to do it and its weird for her

Noire:...

Kallen giggles at the sight and takes something out of her inventory

Kallen: Here an accessory glasses for you

The glasses are a black-rimmed one

Noire: eh?!! Thank you!!!!!

Noire glomp Kallen into a tight hug

Noire suddenly separated

Noire: I thank you because of your generosity and not because I'm addicted to glasses so don't misunderstand

Kallen: sure~

Noire excitedly wears her glasses and feels more peaceful than ever

Noire: this feeling never fades~ let us continue!!!
