Chapter 13
The same time while Vayne is having a conversation with Vlad, Eliza and Erica is at the firing range trying out their new toys from Vayne.
Erica had been trying to get used to the new toy they had, it was different from the SAR that they were using from the past week and it had a noticeable difference between the two.
She saw a glance of Vayne's weapon designs once, one of it was the gun that Vayne was currently using, VS-01 Crossbow
The VS-02 was rather light and had a fearsome firing rate, it had a good stability and it had a switch where they could switch from single, burst and auto.
Though the downside to this is that it had a worst accuracy when firing in full burst and waste a lot of ammo in a short time, the power of the gun weren't worst from the handgun but not good as the other rifles.
It's good that the ammo for the VS-02 were massively produce in a single day, after all it had almost 10 different type of gun it was being used in.
When she first saw Vayne making the first series, she was very much confused and puzzled why he reduced the firing rate and focussed on the precision of the gun.
But then after a few test, she saw and realized the benefit of a pure precise weapon.
It could snipe an enemy in a distance of 500m with an efficient precision of not missing a single shot, how effective would it be when the limit out the maximum distance of the gun.
Vayne once told her that he desired it to reach of almost 1km away with still having a great percent of hitting the target, if that were to happen it would be fearful match.
She felt vexed because of it, she felt that her mind is inferior to his.
Because of it her mind had broaden, fully saw a wide horizon of unknown discovery ready to be discovered by her.
This made her decided, when Vayne woke up or when they won the match, she would ask for his guidance on weapons and equipment development and research.
She would use his kindness and knowledge to broaden her mind even further than anyone ever had, widen her perspective as wide as the horizon.
This may be selfish of her but she knew that Vayne would understand her and refuse to her request, instead he would gladly accept and nurture her mind and talent higher than anyone could ever reach.
Just to stand on a equal standing as him, not to left behind on the sideline and burden him for the rest of their life.

Eliza is right now on the training field, training more on to her new role that she was given.
But inside, she felt inferior to her younger sister, Erica, at a young age had already revealed her amazing talent as well as intellectual compared from her same ages.
Eliza couldn't understood the concept of the mechanic even from a simple handgun, failed to understood any of it.
From her hard work, she is now also compare to the other same ages but not great as Erica had, she could only boast on her great reflexes and mobility.
But the day when she witness Vayne's match, she then felt inferior to him because of his sharp instinct and good reflexes.
On the screen she saw him moving less and bullets would only graze him as it pass, dodging a barrage at the right time and successfully shooting them back.
She decided that she would take her new role seriously and keep up with the two so she wouldn't be just a baggage anymore, not just that she want to be standing side by side with Erica and Vayne.

With this new goal had been set, she began to train on reflexes and mobility to the point that she could almost outrun a bullet.

Just when Eliza decided to end her training for today, she bumped into her sister who coincidentally also decided to end today's practice.
Both of them were covered in sweat and without uttering a single, both took out their towels and clothes and immediately went to take a bath.
Arriving at the same time, going in at the same time, pouring water over their body and went right in to the bath at the same time, neither once they utter a single word and filled the room with an awkward silence.
They are bit distant between themselves but not far enough, both staring at the opposite sides worsening the awkward silence even more.
If interacting is a stream of water, then this awkward silence is more like a block of ice, frozen in their places.
Eliza is getting anxious with this silence, she wanted to break this ice but she could find the right word to start a conversation, neither is Erica in the mood to talk in this time.
Because of the silence, Eliza began to loss her patience and wanted to break the ice.
Waiting a bit more, she now open her mouth forcing a work out to break the ice.
"... Erica, I have something to tell you.""Eliza, this can't go on any further..."
"Eh..." «Eliza»
"If this goes on, we might become Vayne's shackles."
Erica had a serious expression as she continued while ignoring Eliza's baffled expression.
"It's mortifying that we are being left behind, the distance between us and Vayne are very wide. I don't want that, we can't rely on Vayne forever. We have to take the initiative and take the head start before he began to move and leave us."
Although Eliza didn't understand what Erica said at first, but now she beginning to understood that there are just holding Vayne back, preventing him from blooming further.
She earnestly nodded on Erica's declaration, and when they went back to their after the bath they began constructing their plan for the future.

While the girls busy making some personal plans, Vayne finally woke up from his slumber and found himself still in his workshop, alone with only little light around the place.
But he notice a presence near him, hiding from the shadow on the corner of the room.
"Fumu... Coming here at this time seems like the right choice. Nice to meet you Vayne Aethersell Colard."
Vayne wasn't bit startled that he knew his name.
In fact, everyone almost knew his name because of the rumors that were flying around the campus, so it was natural that he wouldn't be too shock that some knew his name.
When this person saw that Vayne wasn't bit flustered, he frowned a little.
"Che... Such a boring expression, well nevermind. I'm Arsur."
The person walked out from the shadow as he introduced himself.
He had a silver purple colored short hair, his emerald colored eyes are almost but not big as the girls had and his skin are lightly tanned comparable to the woman's skins.
Even though he introduced himself as a boy, but no one could even tell whether he is a boy or a girl.
He didn't appears to be a faculty member nor a student, but he had this mysterious aura where you would be wary off.
"If it is alright, I would like to take some of your time." «Arsur»
