My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—
Chapter 183 Interruption"Sure, why not, should we fight by the school stadium?" Satoshi was surprised that Simon would bring up a rematch out of the blue but just like him, he also wanted to have a rematch. Right now, he doesn't know if Simon got a lot more formidable compared to last time, but he could tell that there was an air of confidence within him.
Simon had been training, Satoshi could tell. Well, it's not like he hadn't been training himself. Besides, this fight would really gauge how much Nailgun had improved as an S-Grade Familiar. In all honesty, Satoshi had no idea what S-Grade really meant, but judging by the sudden jump from D-Grade to S-Grade, there should at least be a notable difference, right?
"How long have you had your superpower?" Simon asked out of the blue while they made their way to the school stadium.
"I was a late bloomer. I awakened my superpower a day before the first day of school." Satoshi explained. There was no need to hide that fact since it would be revealed later on, and it's not like that little piece of information would give Simon the advantage he needed during the fight.
"I see," Simon uttered. "I awakened normally— if you're curious about that."
"So you awakened when you turned thirteen? No wonder you were crazy good at using your superpower." Satoshi commented. "Your superpower's all about magnetic fields, right?"
"That's right, but it's nothing noteworthy. The reason I was able to win against you on the first day of school was that my superpower had a clear advantage... and also, if what you're telling me is the truth, then you didn't have time to practice your superpower back then." Simon exhaled, a smile forming on his face. "That's why I wanted to fight you again. I want to know if I could still beat you or not."
"Sure, but we'd have to finish the fight in half an hour, I have a prior engagement," Satoshi responded.
"No worries."
The school stadium loomed like a threatening mountain as they approached it. This was a place of bloodshed, a testing ground that expelled more students than Satoshi knew on their first day of school. Not only was it a place where fights against students are allowed, this stadium is also an arena for professional superheroes who want to sneak in some training in their free time— if the school allows them to, of course.
Fwoosh!
Slash! Slash!
Boom!
From afar, Satoshi and Simon could already hear the sound of someone practicing by the stadium, and the two of them simultaneously hastened their pace since they were both curious as to who was fighting right now.
They were both girls, Satoshi and Simon would notice because of their slender bodies and long hair that waved as they moved and weaved with grace, likened to a moving painting of a wavy ocean.
One of the girls jumped high, shooting a few invisible projectiles that made a 'blooping' sound as they touched the ground, eating away a portion of where the projectiles hit. Meanwhile, the other girl somersaulted a couple of times just to dodge the invisible attacks. On her last flip, she tightened her core and flung her arms wildly as if splashing water onto the other girl. Suddenly, ice spikes appeared and shot themselves at the girl who jumped mid-air. There was no way for her to dodge, that much was for sure, and Satoshi thought that he might have to step in or the girl would get stabbed, endangering her life.
"Soundzero." The girl uttered, waving her hand in a straight line before forming a circle with it.
For some odd reason, the ice spikes never reached her. Rather, they crumbled into ice dust, sparkling as they hit the invisible barrier that the girl constructed. Satoshi's lips curved upward as his pupils dilated, ever focusing on the girl who jumped as she seemed to float on her descent. Because of that, he managed to see her light movement of flicking her wrist behind her back.
"What is she— " Satoshi almost choked on his words as he felt the intense pressure that suddenly engulfed the entire area, like purgatorial flames ever unquenched.
As someone who had survived the first few years of his teenage life without a superpower, Satoshi had learned to subconsciously rely on his instinct. That's why he could tell danger without even seeing one. Without missing a beat, Satoshi summoned his Nailgun and rode on it, accelerating towards the girl who shot the ice spikes. The last time he rode the Nailgun, he could still see his surroundings since the Nailgun wasn't that fast. But right now, he accelerated so much to the point that his surroundings became a blur.
"Kage bunshin no— " Satoshi muttered, activating the Nailgun's skill of cloning itself while simultaneously giving it the instructions to block the attack.
In a split second, Satoshi gave three orders. One is for Dex to detect where the invisible attack would hit— Two, for the Nailgun to accelerate while Satoshi rode on top of it. And lastly, he gave instructions to himself that he would block the invisible attack with his full body, whatever that attack was.
Unbeknownst to the girl who threw the ice spike, the other girl actually flicked an invisible attack aimed at her right ear. It was sort of like a sound orb, made to explode as soon as it touched her skin. Once it explodes, it will produce a sound set at a very high frequency which had a hundred percent chance of busting her eardrum. It wasn't a lethal attack, but it would really give the ice spike girl the L if she couldn't dodge it.
Before the ice spike girl attacked the other girl with an ice attack, she noticed something fast accelerating towards her at insane speeds. It was so fast that her feet froze in place. Even if she tried to dodge, there was no way she could completely get out of the way, and that's why she just gave up on dodging altogether.
"Watch out!" Satoshi screamed as he flung himself towards Shiroi.
"Satoshi?!" Fuuka exclaimed as her attack connected squarely on Satoshi's back, rendering it useless.
