Chapter 5- The First Duel

The duels had started

Nazumo and the Chinese girl was first

“Well mr S class, you wouldn’t mind if I use my sword since your rank is way higher than mine isn’t it”?

“Come on do whatever you want, such a pretty woman as you can do whatever, I’ll give you any amount of handicaps you need my lady”.

The woman had grabbed a sheathed sword and stared right into his soul

“Stop trying to woo me ya horny bastard, I’m going to beat your ass so bad you won’t be able to stand up”.

She had stepped into the ring and immediately drew her sword

The ring was pretty large, it was surrounded by water, if someone had fallen in there they would lose the match

Mr speedster started darting around the ring taunting her to attack

She drew the metallic sword

It was too fast for me to see

As she put the sword back into it’s sheathe

Apparently it too was for mr speedster too as he had blood running down his neck

His eyes widened as he looked at himself in horror

“Holy shit it burns so much, i feel my skin crawling”.

He was on the floor crying to himself

A master samurai can instantly draw his sword in the blink of an eye

But this is overly fast

Almost superhuman

He slowly rose back up and stared right back into the swordswoman’s eyes

His eyes were filled with killing intent

“Come on Nagumo, weren’t you the person who said you were going to dominate me huh”?

She was filled with a sense of pride

Yet her body was fragile

I didn’t even see him move yet the girl was sent flying

But her sword had broke

Nagumo’s punches broke through bare steel

“You know what Nagumo? I won’t go easy on you anymore”.

Within her hands she had created a sword made out of pure red energy

Seems like her power doesn’t have anything to do with swords

“I’ll break that sword and break the rest of your bones”.

“It seems like I hurt your fweelings I’m so sowwy”.

“——————-“

I couldn’t hear what he had said

It probably went along the lines of

“I’m going to kill you”

He rushed towards her

At blinding speeds

His fist had stopped in midair

“A barrier”?!

A large red barrier had surrounded the area around her protecting her from any of the speedster’s abilities

He kept trying to brute force through the barrier as it slowly began to crack

She was obviously hiding someone behind her back but Nagumo kept rapidly punching the barrier

Every punch shook the ring, the shockwaves reaching extremely far

He was blinded by his rage unable to notice anything

She had pulled a translucent red machine gun from behind her back

“This one took longer to construct since the mechanisms are more complex”.

The barrier had shattered as the bullets grazed Nagumo

As he got closer, more rounds had been fired

Nagumo was bleeding all over his face

But his killing intent was still there as he slowly walked towards her

She drew her sword

hitting the chainmail under his shirt

“Gotcha”.

Nagumo had looked down upon her with his bright red eyes

A predator looking down upon a prey

His face twisted into a face of dominance as he smiled at the girl that was laying on the floor

He held her by her hair as he raised her up into the air

“I don’t just have super speed y’know, I also have the body to withstand it, basically super strength and super durability, there was no way you were going to beat me in the first place you piece of shit”.

His fist reached her face as she shattered

like a mirror

As red shards of glass fell onto the ground and disappeared

She had approached him from behind

A shotgun was pointed behind his head

“Well well well, just to be fair, let me explain, that body was just a construct I made, you only thought I could make translucent red constructs didn’t you? Well that was obviously a trick if you haven’t figured that out”.

The match was over

A person that was arrogant because of his powers versus a person that was arrogant because of her skills

The winner was obvious

Even if super speed is way more powerful, construction is way more versatile with the right person

An S- had won against an S class opponent

It wasn’t impossible but it was supposed to be very difficult

It wasn’t even a challenge to her

What was her name?

Ningxin was it?
