It's been a month since she fought the daredevil, right now she is attending the class with Matt at her side while taking down notes. After understanding each other, they became fast friends due to their common likes and similar profession like fighting crimes. It also helps that both of them were Stick students making each other treat as fellow disciples.
Matt was humorous and charming, although when it comes to crime, he became serious. But all serious facade vanish when she teases him and he blushes like a girl.
Currently, she was sitting beside him during class. She was while thinking of inviting him for a spar.
She looks at her status screen and frowns.

First, most of her skills have been stuck at E rank for years making her depressed how to rank them up. Thankfully she has a D rank skill but she didn't know whether it's useful or not. She needs to find a way to a breakthrough to advance. But the question is how is she going to do that?
Next, the current skills she can improve are the bio-electronic skills which are stuck at the rank F. Thankfully, by her [Bio-Electric energy (E)], her consumption of energy decrease by a 10%. She can feel that her control in energy was more skillful, making other Electric related skills have a longer duration.
"To rank these guys, I need to use them in real combat...thats the only thing I haven't done." she murmurs
She realizes that even she practices the skills too much, they never rank up. She got a theory that only by using them in the real fight can only these skills upgrade.
"Hey, are you okay?"
She looks at Matt who was now getting ready to leave, she only notices that the classes are already over.
She stood up from her chair and arrange her things. Then she suddenly stops and looks at Matt.
"Hey Matt"
"Yeah?"
"Want to go on a date?"
Matt suddenly gawk then blush
"You sure? I mean if you like-"
"Rooftop midnight, don't be late" she winks at him and was about to exit the room but stop at the entrance, she then turns around and looks at him.
"Hey, wear your favorite suit okay?" then she was gone.
-
It was a minute before he came back to his senses.
"A date! Someone asks me for a date!"
Although midnight at the rooftop seems a weird place to be their dating place, it was his first date.
"But what does she mean by my favorite suit?" Matt murmur looking confuse
-
Joan was looking at the city with dancing lights. She can feel the vibration of loud sound from here, the smell of smoke and alcohol, on some corner and moans of hookers doing tricks in the alley, and the song of the bullets serve as a firework in the dark night making the midnight very lively.
"It's impressive how he able to handle this kind of situation."
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
"Its practice." A voiced sound on her back
She turns around and almost laugh, but stop herself by biting her lips knuckle.
"Go on, I know you want too." Matt looking at himself then at Elektra.
Elektra was currently wearing a black tight suit and black cloth that covered her face. On the other hand, he wears a white formal dress while holding a bouquet of 12 white roses.
Elektra just smirks and approach him slowly, after arriving at his front, she slowly touches his cheek.
"It's cute, especially your clothes. I can't help but notice how you work out" she let her hand travel down to his Adam's apple making him gulp.
Matt growl making her laugh then she removes her hand.
"Whatever, I'm going home now." He was about to turn around but Joan stopped him by holding his wrist
"Where do you think you're going?"
"I said I'm going home! I don't want to play your games anymore- "
"What games?" she tilts her head in confusion
"This!" he waves his hand in the rooftop
"I thought we are going to date, but your just one those women who want to play with my feelings! "
"This is a date," she said seriously
"Are you serious?" he looks at trying to gauge if she is lying or not
Instead of answering, she walks in the shadow and grabs a bag then throw it at him.
He caught it in surprise. He can feel the bag was very light.
"What is this?"
"Why don't you check it out?" she smiles slightly and leans on the edge of the roof.
Curious about what inside, he opens the zipper of the black bag and put his hand inside. He can feel the softness of the silk fabric, when he pulls it out one by one and spread it, he was startled when he felt a t-shirt, black pants, and black cloth that have a hole which suits the eye. he can guess it cover the head.
He looks at her incredulously
"That is our date," she said while smiling
-
Two shadows were currently traveling on the rooftop; the leading man seems to be devoid of emotion as he uses his senses to find crimes. The other one seems very relax and just following him around like on a business trip.
The man suddenly signals his partner to stop at the edge of some rooftop. The woman stops and looks curiously down below.
She can see five men surrounded by one girl, she was barely 16 years old base on her facial structure and petite body. She was wearing a revealing tight red dress.
She frowns at what happens at the scene, she knows she doesn't have the right to judge people base on how they do their living. But she can't help but her eyes grew cold as the men look at the girl with lust.
She looks at Matt who was watching the scene indifferently.
"You're just going to watch?"
He just shrugged his shoulder
"Its everyday occurrence, it's not like I can guard all the people in the city by myself."
She nods looking down.
"Every day, girls like her either disappear never seen again or murdered in the cold streets."
She just sighs and electricity starts to flow to her body.
"Well, you just need to eliminate them until no one ever recurs trouble again."
Then she runs and jumps, when she was falling, she grabs her sai from her side and cut the wire connected to the other side of the building, with the help of the wire, she swings down to the group. When she was near them, she jumps landing in the middle of them.
The group was startled by someone's sudden appearance.
"The hell?"
"Look. Someone wants to join the fun"
"Who is this little shit?"
The girl tremble in fear and look at the masked figure in the hope
Joan didn't say anything when the electricity was on her body was at its peak, she releases electricity around her, bathing all the people around her in a 1-meter range. All person was close enough to each other to be affected by electricity making Joan job easier.
After they were stunned, she suddenly pulls out another sai and starts slicing the men's neck fast. Before 3 seconds end, all five assailants were already lying in the pools of blood.
The girl looks at the corpse around her and tremble, she was about to scream when she was suddenly knocked out.
Joan turned around and found Matt holding the girl.
"How do you process this kind of thing."
"It's best to call the police."
"So the police are still useful?"
"Some of them still believe in justice."
"Some?"
Instead of answering her, he carries the girl and lay her down, he pulls out her phone and calls someone, after a few seconds, he turns off the call.
"I'll have call someone to handle her, let's go"
Matt run to the alley's exit
Joan look back at the girl now unconscious, she shakes her head and follows Matt.
-
They continue hunting criminals until dawn, sometimes they just observe, sometimes they take them down. Joan never kills again after the five previous guys, she mostly uses her skill to stun her enemies and take them down by fist. Matt didn't say anything and continue patrolling the area. She felt her proficiency in energy increase. It means that her theory wasn't wrong.
They both look at the rising sun, both quiet in their thoughts.
"It's beautiful"
"Yeah, it's the only thing that beautiful here among the pool of shit"
She turns around and faces him.
"Would you like some coffee?"
Matt gawk but scratch his head.
"I don't want to overstep my bounds."
She just rolls her eyes and approaches him, before Matt could evade, she already grabs his shirt and pulls him to her, she kisses him with passion. Soon Matt was responding to her eagerly as well. After a few seconds, she pulls back breathing hard while her cheeks were tinted with red.
"Now, would you like some coffee" she emphasis every word to make sure Matt gets it.
Matt opens his mouth in a daze but close it and look at the crazy woman at his front and grin.
"I would love too"
-
While somewhere...three ninjas were currently kneeling on their front of a mysterious figure with respect.
"Here is your target" a hand appears on the shadow and hand them a document.
The leader of the black ninja grabs the pic. It was a girl with brown hair and deep black eyes, she was wearing casual black cashmere. The photo shows her getting out of the school gate.
"Kill her, you have only three days to finish the job." the mysterious voice echo in the darkness
"Yes," the three ninjas bow their head in obedient then they vanish in thin air.
-
2 days since she began her vigilante career, with occasional fun with Matt, they almost can't keep each others hand. Now she knows why those bitches were throwing themselves to hunk guys after experiencing how nice sex is.
Yelp, there goes her virgin card, but who cares. It's not like she going to live like a nun. She's human with needs after all.
"Ring"
She grabs the phone, she looks at the name of the caller and it was her dad. She answers it and puts it in her right ear.
"Hello"
"Hello sweetie, how is it going?"
She can't help but smile. Hugo Nachios was truly the father you could ask for. He was attentive to her needs and very protective at the same time, although he tried to spoil her, she tried to have a normal daughter-dad relationship with him, after all, he was the only relative left in this world.
"I'm okay dad, I'm having a good time"
"Good, good so how is school?"
She doesn't know why, but the tone of her father seems to lower a bit making her doubt if the phone was losing connection. She looks at the phone to make sure the call was still connected before putting it back to her ear.
"Hello?"
"Something wrong?"
She just was about to say something when she stops talking for a bit and perk her ears. She heard a small sound outside the house.
"Dad, I got to go. I still need to finish my homework."
"Sorry sweetie, just checking on you, tell me if you need anything okay?"
"Sure, don't worry about me. See you later." then she ends the call.
The sound was gone, making her frown.
"Am I imagining things?" She murmur
Suddenly she throws the throw pillow in the air. Something hit the pillow making the ambush failed, she pulled out the two sai under the sofa and activate her [Bio-electro body enhancement].
Three shadow ninjas immediately surrounded the sofa, not giving the target a chance to retaliate, they look at each other and nod. They rush both left and right, the last ninja jump atop of the sofa. But they were surprised to find the girl vanish.
Without warning the three ninjas was electrocuted making them stun for three seconds, a young woman rolls out of the sofa while holding sai, she throws the two enhance sai at the two assailant's head left and right, they piece the head without stopping until they embed at the walls. She jumps and throws an enhance kunai at the last one, before it pierces its head, she can see the unwillingness on its eyes before the kunai pierce his head.
