Flat-Brim Samurai Chapter 67 : I'm dodging what?!?
CLICK CLACK CLICK ,"Who's that guy?" ,"Is he dressing up for a festival?" Narphun in his silver armor walked down a road, each step was perfect, without flaw. He was looking for something, or some place, he had found it. ,"This is it? What happened to my kingdom? Well, I guess I'll have to build it from the ground up once more." People looked at the man, wondering what he would do, he then raised his hand. A low rumble sounded throughout the entire city ,"AN EARTHQUAKE!" ,"WHAT'S HAPPENING!" The ground opened up and rock rose from the ground via Art: Telekinesis.
People screamed as they were running or falling into the massive hole. Narphun, being from the medieval era, nonetheless a king didn't care about the lives of lessers. He just continued to rack up deaths as he created his new castle. After reaching the material he needed he activated Art: Rock. He shaped the stone, creating bricks. After about 10 minutes, his castle had been recreated. He walked and opened the gate. He stepped inside and smiled ,"It's good to be back." He stepped forward and saw his throne. After walking up to it, he turned around, sat down and rested his hands on the armrests. He put his left hand on his chin and breathed out. A king has regained his throne.
Four Months Later…
,"Hey guys," ,"What's up," ,"Hey y'all," ,"Sup," The boys had finished their training with their masters. They had all received their medallions. They were curious as to how strong each other was but couldn't tell because they had all learned how to use Art: Conceal Presence. They analyzed each other's physiques to try to pinpoint power.
They walked as they sensed each other out and arrived back at Hiroto's mountaintop dojo once more. Except there was no one there, it was just a sign saying "If you see this, then you have gotten your medallion. Go to the highest mountain with the heaviest clouds." ,"What does that even me-?" CRACK BOOM A bolt of lightning sounded behind them, they all looked back. ,"I think that's it," Cias said ,"You think?" Apollo said sarcastically.
… CRACKLE CRACKLE BOOM A wave of energy rushed over them, they felt their bodies receiving a hint of electricity. Apollo gulped, whispering ,"This is gonna be interesting, knowing Hiroto," ,"What did you say brat?" (He heard me?!?") ,"Get up here," Once they reached the summit, they saw Hiroto standing alone, cross armed ,"Took you guys long enough," ,"So what's the final challenge?" Cias asked, Hiroto looked at them, then closed his eyes and said ,"Your final challenge is to dodge lightning." ,"I'm dodging what?!?" They all opened their eyes wide.
,"DODGE LIGHTNING!!!" Cias screamed. Devan was too stunned to speak whilst Noah smirked ,"YESS!!!" ready for the challenge. ,"Speed training is in your immediate future, it's time to dodge some of my attacks." ,"Wait wait wait!!!" Hiroto condensed his ki into Bolts FWING WOOSH. They all got out of the way ,"It's good you guys can dodge that, all that training would've gone to waste if you hadn't. If you didn't, you'd have no chance." Hiroto wasn't playing around anymore, he was the most serious he'd ever been, it scared some of them but Apollo most of all.
Knowing his grandfather all his life he'd never expected to see this side of him. It was like he'd brought back the man of his stories, the man who was ruthless and strong. Indeed, Hiroto wanted to train them as hard as he could because this trial could kill them. He decided that he needed to bring back the old version of himself, from his glory days as an interdimensional military general.
