As I approach the clearing my sensors notify me of an unknown flying aircraft or animal. I did not know what to expect, if I believe what Al has told me then the possibility of large beast is a most likely scenario.
"Could it be a large bird?" A griffin maybe that would be nice to have as a companion wouldn't it. No maybe a dragon if this really is a fantasy like universe then what Al saw when I was asleep was most likely a dragon.
“I wonder how strong dragons are” I blurted out loud :Real
“I do not know the thickness of their scales. Based on the novels where modern japanese soldiers go to another world, it seems that the weakest of the dragons can be easily killed by small arms fire so your rail pistol will likely be very effective. But they are just the weakest and most numerous of the dragon kin, the rarer more powerful dragons on the other hand seem to have scales as strong as tungsten making them flying tanks. But this is based on the novels and should not be taken as a credible source.” :Al
“Then it would be best to hide and scan those creatures to further understand the best method to take them out?” :Real
“Yes, it seems they are approaching our location soon please hide now.” :Al
I run towards a bush directly in my path and slowed down to go prone. Unlike goblins who walk on land flying creatures are best avoided by staying near the ground. “Damn I wish I had Active Camouflage” I slowly waited and after a few seconds “ raaawr…… raawr”. I heard sounds of two beast seemingly fighting but I still could not see them. As two the dots became bigger and bigger I could truly see their scales and large wingspans. With my estimates I think they were 30 to 45 feet long with a very large wings, but this did not surprise me because I have seen bigger aircrafts and creatures from other inhabited planets with similar if not bigger sizes. “Whoa what was that?”
What truly surprised me is the projectiles flying from each creature. At around 200 feet the beasts stop as I look closer from my prone position I could see what looks to be like people on top of them like horse riders. But what's odd are the shiny lazer like beams flying against each other and the barrier like forcefield they deploy to protect themselves.
“Al scan those people for any advanced technology and see if they are a threat” :Real
“Scanning now………. Master there seems to be no advance technology that would be of threat towards you. Whats even more confusing is that there is no technology at all that the sensors are able to detect.” :Al
“What” with a shocked face of disbelief “how is that possible” :Real
“There is more master, multiple sensors detected a faint energy in the air all over our surroundings remember I told you when you woke up. It seems that every time those people fire bolts and flames this energy gathers around them and transforms into the projectiles you see.” :Al
With an even more surprised look Real understood “So it's magic!” :Real
“As a hypothesis It could be, but a more advanced technology should not be ruled out either” :Al

Booooooooooooooom!!!
The fighting intensified and a I felt a great shockwave
“Al record this it could be useful later on.” :Real
I zoomed my vision using the optical sensors and cameras embedded within the exterior of my suit to get a clearer picture. I saw two figures one was a man in a black and silver trimmed full plate armor without a helmet, seeing as how his armor was damaged it probably fell in combat somewhere. The other figure was a woman, she had long red hair that fluttered in the wind with elegant striking facial features, something many would call gorgeous. She wore a similar attire to her enemy, a red trimmed silver plate armor (not full plate) could be seen. It did not accentuate her figure but gave her a courageous and unyielding look.
After the big explosion the two created a distance from each other and stopped. Then took their stances with their mounts, The female looks tired as she is panting. She started talking but I could not hear her very well, since the two dragons won't stop growling at each other. So I enhanced the sound coming from the two people and started to eavesdrop.
With a grin of lust the knight said “Hehehehe you got a nice face there I wonder what you look like under that armor” :Black knight
“Tch” the red hair beauty bit her lip and gritted her teeth while preparing for what's to come.
“Why don't you give up already, I haven't had a women in days after this battle started. Heck if you give up know I'll fuck you until you are full of bliss” the man said with a big grin and elevated breathing : Black knight
The woman replied with a face bursting with anger “Go fuck yourself you filthy bastard! I'd rather die than have sex with you!” :Red hair Beauty
“So be it i'll try not to cut your gorgeous face and body, so you can feel the pleasures that men can deliver” the man laughs :Black knight
The black knight readies his lance. It was long and shined brilliantly “Is that some magical device” I thought. The woman did the same but rather than a lance or spear she readied her arming sword.
“She is at a disadvantage in this fight should I help?” :Real
“Hmph so you're no different from that ugly man master? Or is this the first time you saw a beautiful girl” Alivine would sneer if she could :Al
“No no no! Al look carefully who do you think is worth talking to, that garbage of a man or that woman in distress? You already know I hate rapists and the like” :Real
Alivine already knew and calmed down “Master It would surely be a good idea to ask someone about this world, and have a lot of our questions answered. I suggest striking from a distance to minimize risk, It does not look like their ranged attacks are accurate at long ranges.
While talking to Al The two started their charge so I refocused in their direction once more and took out my pistol just in case.
The two charged at each other shooting flames and ice while a barrier like forcefield blocked both of their attacks. But every time the woman used her magic she seemed to get even more tired.
As they got close they stopped their magic attacks and prepared for a close range engagement. The Black knight readied his shining lance for a stab, and his enemy did so as well she readied to slice at her side but her sword with a similar light started to flicker. With the longer reach of the spear she could do naught but parry the lance. She deflected the first strike but the man knew it would happen and prepared a second strike. With her exhausted body the second attack became fatal, piercing her armor and penetrating deep into her stomach. Once this happened she lost control of her mount and it jolted her off making her fall from about 50, 60 meters into the clearing.
She did not give up and used some form of magic to break her fall leaving her with only a few scratches here and there.
The bastard looked happy at his doing and urged his mount to land.
“Hahahaha, Yes This bitch is mine!!!” he shouted with a happy tone :Black knight
The woman lay helplessly on the ground growling at the pain she felt on her abdomen.
As I watch I became Furious.
