53-Negotiation

Koharu gets furious.

Koharu – You gave our location to Hiroshi and his group, and now you come asking for our help to stop the group that Hiroshi sent to Omeron, there's no way we're going to help you!!!

Alisiya is surprised.

Alisiya – How do you know that?

Koharu – Go screw yourself, no one here has any reason to talk to you!!!

Alisiya – That's the behavior of a princess, now I understand why you were abandoned.

Koharu tries to attack Alisiya, but is stopped by Shana and Cassandra who hold her back. Cassandra and Shana release Koharu after realizing that she has calmed down.

Grinn – Really Alisiya, we have too many reasons not to accept this truce and cooperation with you. So tell me why we should accept the partnership?

Alisiya – I can protect the kingdom of Omeron, after all I'm strong.

Grinn – That's a good point, but I don't understand. If you're that strong, why kill Hiroshi and free the slaves, or kill this girl and take the item she has?

Alisiya – First of all, killing Hiroshi isn't fun for me. I'd like to see Hiroshi meet Fujimoto and Koharu.

Fujimoto gets angry, and Koharu screams.

Koharu – You damn thing!!!

Grinn glares at Koharu.

Grinn – Please, Max and Kairo, take Koharu somewhere else until the negotiation is over.

Max – Okay.

Kairo – Understood.

Max and Kairo hold Koharu.

Koharu – Let me go!!!

Max and Kairo take Koharu to the garden.

Grinn – Let's continue, so tell me why you don't kill this girl and take the item from her.

Alisiya – I'd like to know why Hiroshi put such an item on this girl and what his need is.

Fujimoto – So you want to keep her alive to get her item and discover her abilities?

Alisiya – Exactly.

Alisiya then sighs.

Alisiya – Unfortunately, I'll need your help to save this girl, your Hidden Observatory and Cancel abilities are necessary.

Fujimoto then smiles.

Alisiya – Why are you smiling?

Fujimoto – I'm happy to work together with my older sister, besides I had already decided to free as many people as possible from Hiroshi's slavery.

Grinn – Alisiya, we'll accept your offer on one condition.

Alisiya – What's the condition?

Grinn – As long as the fight isn't in the city, I'm fine with it.

Alisiya – We can intercept them in the Giolal forest.

Grinn – Okay, then let's do a training period, that will be decided by drawing lots.

Minutes later.

Fujimoto – Hey, why is Sebastian here?

Melissa – It may not seem like it, but Sebastian is strong.

Fujimoto – I understand.

Grinn – I'll draw lots and name the pairs, the training location will be in the private duel room.

Everyone agrees.

Grinn – Alisiya and Cassandra, me and Sebastian, Melissa and Kairo, Fujimoto and Shana, Koharu and Max.

Everyone then goes to the private duel room.

Grinn – The order of the fights will be in the order in which the draw was drawn, so Alisiya and Cassandra will be the first to fight.

Alisiya and Cassandra enter the private duel room. Alisiya gives an ironic smile.

Alisiya – I hope you can serve as a warm-up.

Cassandra – Come on.

Alisiya then jumps and quickly hits Cassandra with a flying kick in the belly. Everyone is impressed by Alisiya's speed. Alisiya then grabs Cassandra from behind, dragging her by the collar of her shirt. Alisiya then throws Cassandra away. Cassandra uses Mahõkaze to keep her from falling to the ground, but when Cassandra was landing, she is surprised by Alisiya, who hits her with a punch in the face and knocks her down.

Alisiya – That fight was pretty good, but I have to admit that you have courage.

Cassandra – What do you mean?

Alisiya – You are not a guardian of God, much less someone of high rank, but even so you decided to go on adventures that could bring you death at any moment.

Alisiya and Cassandra then leave the room. Grinn and Sebastian enter the room.

Sebastian – Let's see if I still know how to fight.

Grinn – Let's go.

Grinn then pulls out his sword, but Sebastian tries to hit him with a punch. Grinn places his sword in front of him to protect himself from Sebastian's punch. Sebastian then tries to trip Grinn. Grinn dodges it by jumping. Grinn then throws a lightning bolt with his sword, but Sebastian counters the attack with his arms. Grinn then raises his hands up.

Grinn – I give up.

Everyone is surprised by Sebastian's skills.

Grinn and Sebastian leave the room.

Sebastian – Don't be fooled, the young master is strong, but neither he nor Melissa can use their skills in closed spaces.

Melissa and Kairo enter the room.

Kairo – Even though I know the chances are slim, I'll give it my all.

Melissa – Let's go.

Melissa then takes out her sword and quickly attacks Kairo, but Melissa pierces Kairo's body.

Melissa – So you're already using Intangibility.

Kairo – Get ready, I have more tricks.

Melissa is going to attack Kairo, but Kairo disappears.

Melissa – (where is he?)

Kairo then gets off Melissa's back.

Kairo – I'm here.

Kairo tries to attack her with a punch, but Melissa starts spinning and creating a small tornado that sends Kairo away. When Kairo gets up, he sees Melissa with a sword pointed at him.

Kairo – Unfortunately, I lost.

Melissa and Kairo leave the room.

Melissa – You and Cassandra have evolved a lot.

Fujimoto and Shana enter the room.

Fujimoto – I've improved a lot in the last few days.

Shana – I understand.

Shana – (I'm sorry Fujimoto, but I can't fight at my best, after all, I don't want your sister to see my skills.)

Fujimoto then tries to attack Shana with the sword, but Shana dodges, Fujimoto doesn't give Shana a chance to counterattack, Shana then just keeps dodging, Shana then trips on the floor and loses the fight. Fujimoto and Shana shake hands.

Shana – You've improved your skills a lot.

Fujimoto – Thank you, but I don't think you gave it your all.

Shana then smiles. Fujimoto and Shana leave the room. Koharu and Max enter the room.

Koharu – Come on Max, fight with everything you have.

Max – You fight with everything you have too.

Max then uses the Fire of Youth to increase the heat in the room, Koharu then uses the Feelings power to create a shield and a sword. Koharu goes after Max, she tries to hit Max with the sword, but Max protects herself by putting her arms up, Max tries to punch Koharu with her right hand, but Koharu protects herself with the shield, Max then uses her Physical Enhancement ability and punches Koharu in the stomach with her left hand. Max then defeats Koharu.

Koharu – You are very strong.

Max – You too.

Grinn – Now let's all take a bath and then have dinner.

Hours later everyone took a bath. Everyone is having dinner.

Grinn – Melissa and I had an idea to avoid fights at bedtime. We separated five rooms and then we'll randomly choose two people to sleep in each one.

Everyone agrees.

Grinn – Room one is Sebastian and Alisiya, room two is Kairo and Cassandra, room three is Max and Fujimoto, room four is Shana and Koharu, room five is me and Melissa.

Everyone then goes to their rooms.
