Chapter 550

Kyon smiled bitterly to himself. The sudden attack in full force only burned the opponent’s palms a little… The opportunity to seize the advantage is lost. He could have used “The sovereign’s stare” at that moment, but common sense told him that the girl would simply look away because of her total luck. And it’s stupid to waste Synergy so thoughtlessly, the only matter that defies the calculations of the curse. Since now the girl knows what she may face, he will not be able to win easily.

{Why is he so strong and fast? And so strange?!} – Valkyrie tried to understand. She felt out of place for the first time in her life. The girl was used to defeating opponents, sometimes surpassing her by an entire phase, which clearly spoke of her monstrous talent. But she’s met her match when it comes to Baker. With him, everything is exactly the opposite, as if he is a genius here, and she is just a faded shadow next to him. How could a pathetic noble phaser put such pressure on her?!

Torres already regretted that she had spent a spiritual attack with a half-hour recoil on Asagi. With it, she would definitely instantly overcome Dick. It’s strange that the circumstances turned out that way, because usually all her actions have no unfortunate consequences.

{Anyway. I just wasn’t ready for his explosive speed and dark blade. Now he definitely doesn’t have a chance.} – Valkyrie was sure of it, and she rushed to attack.

Kyon met the approaching opponent with a horizontal swing of his sword, but she, using the wind flow, abruptly flew up and kicked him in the head from a turn… Her full-force blow would have cut off the head of even a royal phaser at the peaking stage.

Realizing that the opponent was not going anywhere, Valkyrie, with triumph in her eyes, was preparing to say another sharp phrase, but after a moment confusion and amazement appeared on her face: the fat guy was clearly going to bite her!

«Yaa-a-a-a-ah!» – Torres screamed in horror when he grabbed her boot with his teeth. She immediately pushed off with her free foot from his chest, however, the fat guy was not going to unclench his jaw, instead he raised his sword as if he was going to pierce her through.

Valkyrie was unnerved. The girl arched forward, unzipped the boot and finally pushed off, making a spectacular back flip, but losing the boot…

All the spectators took their breath away.

Master Felix nodded to himself: {His methods of fighting are not distinguished by an obsession with either honor or self-respect… He is completely focused on the result. How shameless, but effective. In a fight to the death, this young man will turn into a tiger!}

«Y-y-you… How dare you deprive me of the boot?!» – exclaimed blushing Valkyrie with a bare foot. The very thought of being undressed by a half-naked ugly Baker made her want to sink into the ground with shame… The girl’s eyes in those seconds took on the charming color of a ripe peach, as if speaking about her feelings.

«You shouldn’t have broken my dishes!» – Kyon snorted. – «But unlike you, I am kind.» – he nobly declared and threw the bitten, slobbered boot at her feet.

«I will never wear it again in my life!» – Valkyrie was indignant and, gritting her teeth, took off her second boot, deciding to fight barefoot. The shape of her beautiful delicate feet was perfect, and any man would love to know what they feel like.

{Just like in that duel with Kara…} – Kyon suddenly remembered. – {I wonder if the element of darkness corrodes her shorts, how will her master react? Will she blame me, considering that she half undressed me?}

With a flame in her already reddish eyes, Torres again rushed into battle.

The duel ensued.

The fact that the girl fights without weapons greatly simplifies everything, because she will not dare to face “The cut of darkness” with her bare hands, therefore, she can only parry all blows and look for an opportunity for a counterattack. But the guy’s right hand is not only excessively strong, but also fast, so he has a huge advantage.

However, Kyon took into account his failure coefficient relative to his sister’s incredible luck, so he was obliged to exclude the element of chance from the duel, subordinating the entire course of the battle to pure and cold calculation. Synergy! It is not only beyond the influence of the curse, but will also allow him to act as efficiently as possible in each individual period of time.

{Until she pulls out her weapon, I have a clear advantage.} – Lovr nodded to his thoughts.

But the next few seconds of the fight discouraged him. The girl, who has a significant advantage in speed, did not make a single mistake and did not fall for any provocation! As if she had 10 fighting fists. As a result, she managed not only to dodge absolutely all attacks, but also to seize the initiative…

~BOOM~

Valkyrie kicked the fat guy in the ribs with her heel, forcing him to scrape 10 meters on the ground.

Kyon’s ribs cracked, and the residual impact fell on the internal organs, which caused them to ache painfully. Fortunately, he could patch up cracks in carbon bones with the element of earth, and the healing technique, which can be quietly used right during the battle, can stop any bleeding by overgrowing torn tissues. However, it is unable to heal organs – that is, to regenerate new cells in them.

{The force of her blow… Is she a fucking master of pure energy?!} – Kyon wondered. It would also explain the amazing speed for her stage.

Torres continued the onslaught with a ruthless gleam in her eyes.

Rapidly losing the initiative, Lovr deliberately put his head up to take a blow at it and attack himself, but this trick did not work the second time… The opponent stamped her foot! He had to jump up, otherwise the underground blow would have hit him in the foot.

~BOOF~

Valkyrie’s eyes flashed, and she instantly approached him at arm’s length and struck the defenseless guy with a series of blows: in the ribs, in the side and with a squat uppercut in the solar plexus, sending him into a long flight…

All the air was knocked out of Kyon’s lungs. Hellish pain engulfed the whole body. If his nervous system hadn’t been upgraded, he wouldn’t have been able to move for another minute.

{How the fuck does she manage to move so damn well?!} – Lovr tried to understand. He refused to believe that his sister had 10 fighting fists.

With the look of a contented kitty, Valkyrie stretched sweetly and purred: «Usually I don’t enjoy beating up anyone, but you… You are an exception! So soft and nasty… It’s very nice to beat you! Hey, how about working as a training dummy for me? I will smile at you sometimes as payment…»

Many junior male disciples of the empress caught themselves thinking that, if they were in Dick’s place, they would agree with such a proposal.

The answer of the messenger of the goddess suddenly became very important to Elsa.

«I’m afraid you can’t afford me.» – Kyon snapped, which made Stone extremely happy.

«You overestimate yourself!» – Torres chuckled.

«The imperial phaser, who hardly competes with the noble phaser, convinces him that he overestimates himself… Well, well. If I say that you are actually a handsome boy dressed up as a noble lady, it will sound more plausible.» – Kyon snapped venomously.

Giggles were heard from the stands, Elsa, who wanted to annoy the scoundrel, laughed loudest of all.

The smile disappeared from Valkyrie’s beautiful face. The sharp words of the fat guy are aimed at her most painful place: a sense of her uniqueness… The very fact that he has held out in battle with her for 2 minutes is extremely humiliating.

Torres darted towards the opponent with lightning speed to teach him a life lesson, at the same time taking out all the indignation, but from the very first seconds something went wrong… The girl was shocked to realize that a blade of darkness was heading straight for her face.

{I won’t dodge!} – biting her lip, Valkyrie was forced to take the attack on her hands, having previously covered them with the elements of light for protection. But even so, the corrosive effect burned her palms, and the impact force made her scrape 5 meters…

Kyon breathed a sigh of relief and even laughed. Why didn’t he figure it out earlier? The sister’s luck reads the intentions of the soul, as well as the ability of Juno, and sends this information to its mistress, because of this, she always knows what to expect and how to react. She doesn’t have 10 fighting fists. It’s as if she sees the right answers on the exam!

It doesn’t matter how well Synergy calculates everything. The only thing that matters is that the ready answer should not get into the brain, and therefore the soul, because these two entities are now under the close supervision of luck. Synergy must control the body autonomously!

As a result, Lovr had the opportunity to show fortune the middle finger, or even use it to drive his sister into a trap, thereby undermining her blind faith in herself – in her intuition (in fact, the same notorious luck). And only then, when she stops listening to herself, she will start fighting with her legitimate 7 fighting fists.

Meanwhile, many viewers never stopped wondering why Torres missed the second attack! And this despite the fact that she already knew about the speed and strength of her opponent, that is, she was ready!

However, Felix, who had been frowning thoughtfully for a whole minute, trying to understand Baker’s style and appreciate his skill, was the most surprised of all. He knew perfectly well that his disciple was a monster. The level of her skill has long gone beyond reasonable. In equal conditions, if she wants it, he, the acting archmaster, will not even touch her! And yet, now the young man inflicted a second injury on her, although he did not demonstrate anything unexpected… Phenomenal! Is it possible that he is even more monstrous than she is? Who taught him that?!

Valkyrie applied a healing technique to her burned hands and angrily looked at the laughing fat guy: «You will pay for this…» – she took out of the ring a golden scepter, covered with patterns, as tall as her height. Its tip was a sphere with small gaps, inside of which a shining nephrite with a formation could be seen.

«Lady Valkyrie has drawn her weapon! She is serious!» … «The battle between heavenly geniuses… I can capture it! Wow!» – the audience was looking forward to the epic performance.

Torres immediately rushed to the attack.

Kyon met the blow of the scepter with the Scourge, however, to his complete surprise, there was no serious recoil from the collision… On the contrary, the girl’s weapon seemed to almost fly out of her hands. In response, she made a 360-degree turn and attacked again…

{What does it mean?} – Lovr was puzzled. – {Is this her style? No… Nonsense…}

After 5 swift blows, comparable to the touch of a fluff, Kyon had a bad feeling. He activated “The eyes of truth” and found his Scourge literally glowing because of the overflowing alien energy. At the sight of the shadow of a malicious grin that slid on the lips of the opponent, his pupils narrowed, and he lowered his sword and jumped sharply to the side…

~BA-A-A-ANG~

With a deafening roar, as if five full-fledged attacks were made in an instant, the burgundy sword flew out of the fat guy’s hands at lightning speed, almost hitting him.

~BA-A-A-ANG~

Due to the collision with the weapon, the barrier, capable of withstanding even the attack of the sovereign phaser at the beginning stage, vibrated dangerously and cracked, but still has been restored.

Some of the spectators were thrown up in their seats from surprise.

Even Lanatelle raised an eyebrow slightly.

Kyon rushed to the sword, but the girl appeared in front of him with the look of a hooligan…

«Well, well, well, where are you going?» – her eyes were beaming with complacency, as if she had just snatched victory with a sophisticated trick. The lady reasonably assumed that the fat guy was good for nothing without the sword, which was generally true.

«I need the sword. I gave you back the boot, give me back the sword. We’ll be even.»

«A-ha-ha-ha!» – Valkyrie burst out laughing, and her laughter, resembling the murmur of a mountain stream, caressed the ears. – «As you can see, I don’t have boots on right now…» – suddenly a compassionate smile blossomed on the lady’s tender lips. – «But unlike you, I am kind, so I will return the sword if you immediately fall to your knees and respectfully say the following: “Lady, this pathetic servant begs you to return his weapon to him”.»

If the fat guy fulfills her conditions, then she will really make a concession to him… Later. When she turns him into mincemeat. Well, why not? She didn’t say exactly when she would return it, so she would keep her dignity, and she would make him look like a gullible fool. Besides, she really wanted to taste the whole spectrum of his negative emotions: from regret and shame to become a laughing stock in front of the crowd to grief and despair when she would deprive him of his last hope.

Kyon saw through the girl’s plan and, sighing heavily, shook his head ruefully: «You are incorrigible…»

The Scourge appeared in his hand with a green flash.

Valkyrie’s mocking expression seemed to crack.
