(38)Chapter 1.1.6– The Mock Battles and Her First Battle. (Part -9)

  “Well, you see, I’m a greedy woman with too much confidence in my strength. But it does not matter, don’t worry about it, I’m more than sure that I won’t break a sweat even against the four of you. Get ready, the teacher like before, he will start the fight.”

  She flashes a smile at them as she says this, one that is filled with utmost confidence on what she’s saying, as she tells them what will happen and how things will end. With a loud “tsk” the teacher shouts to them to get in position, once they are in position and ready to go, everything is ready to start the battle.

  ........

  ......

  ...

  Tension rises up as the silence gets louder and louder by the passing seconds. Everyone quiets down, anxiously waiting for the teacher to start the battle. They are barely containing their excitement as they closely watch what will unfold.

  “Who will win?”

  “It’s four against one, surely, she can’t win! Right?”

  “It would be so amazing if she actually wins!”

  For the untrained and weak eye, I understand why these questions would pop on their feeble minds, however, even to a weak fighter, he knows well what will happen. Alice will win of course.

  Roxy- Miss Eris, do you think she can win? Do you think Miss Florence can win against four people? That seems a little unfair, but after what they did to Miss Pandora, I do want her to win. I want her to punch them into oblivion and beyond.

  Well, colour me surprised, although her voice still sounds monotone and with a weird remark at the end, I can somewhat feel a sharper tone to it, just enough to break out the monotone sound of the voice. Just like Kiana and Alice, she’s also “angry” at those people. Who wouldn’t be to be honest? While Roxy seems to be odd, that does not make her a bad person or an evil villain at all.

  Kiana- That’s not even a question you should be asking, you just saw what she can do, so of course she can easily win against them. Not only does she have that much more magic energy than the four of them combined, she also seems skilled enough to use it and, I also do believe she can handle herself in battle quite well. Also, you can call me Kiana, it’s kind of odd to hear someone call me by my surname…

  Roxy- Is that so? You can also call me Roxy then, and if you say that she can win, I’m inclined to believe. After all, you do seem like a professional at this type of stuff.

  Erm, how can I describe this? She first started normally until around when she said “I’m inclined to believe”, after that, hell broke loose. I guess? Not only does she try to say it with a jokingly tone of voice, she also does a weird movement with her hands as if she was trying to show what “that type of stuff” is, ending everything with her head slightly tilted sideways. What in tarnation just happened? Was she trying to make a joke? Did we miss something? Yes, we, as you can guess Kiana, is also beyond confused and has no clue on how to react to this.

  Kiana- Huh… Any-Anyway, I also believe that, if Miss Pandora had some type of training, she could probably win against them, but only one on one. Any more than that and she would lose easily.

  Roxy- Does that mean that she also has more magic energy than them? Or are you seeing something else in her? Some kind of hidden potential? Ooo, I like the sound of that.

  Kiana- Ah no, nothing like that. She has just a tiny bit more magic than them, however, what makes me believe she could win in a one on one is her problem solving, or more so, her creativity. Although she failed her plan, it was actually quite good and the explosion that happened did have a bit of a punch to it. With a little bit of training, I believe she could do some crazy stuff, but that will depend on what type of potions she uses. Or whatever they were. I know they had magic on them, but that’s the extent that I can say about them.

  Roxy- Ah I see, that does make sense. However, what about oneself? Do you think I have a chance? Do I have any type of potential talent hidden behind my sunglasses? You know, since they are hiding my potential talented eyes?

  This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

  Here we go again, this time, and again, she ends it with her head tilted slightly sideways and at the same time, with both of her index fingers in both hands pointing at herself. The finger from her right-hand points towards her chest as if it’s referring to her “hidden talent”, while the other finger points towards her sunglasses, this one seems to refer to “hidden talent behind her sunglasses” or “potential talented eyes”. Of course, this leaves the two of us beyond speechless. Well beyond speechless.

  “(Ehhhhh!? Is this how popular people act? Am I this distanced from these types of people? I’m so confused by her reactions! I don’t know what to say!)”

  Ah no, Kiana, don’t worry about it too much, Roxy is just an oddball, that’s it.

  Kiana- We-well, you also do have more magic energy than them, and by quite a bit at that. Just like Miss Pandora, with a little bit of training you can comfortably win against them, although in your case you could probably go against the four of them and come out at the top with ease.

  “(Thanks to that Magic Core I do believe what I’m saying. However, does she even know about it? I shouldn’t pry on her privacy… If someday she does say something about it then, I will ask her about it.)”

  Roxy- Well, I think that’s good to hear, but how do you know or notice all of this? How do you even know if any of us fought at full strength or anything like that? Maybe they have some type of hidden skill or transformation that will change the course of the battle. You know, like that one transformation where it makes your hair go all up, also gaining a yellow colour to it and increasing their strength by 50 times. You know, that transformation.

  Kiana- Erm, I don’t know what you’re referring to nor I don’t know any transformation that could do such a thing. In fact, that seems way too overpowered, where did you hear of that? I’m quite curious now, but anyway, I know because I know it!

  “Hehe! It’s a secret! So of course, I won’t tell you! A young lady like myself cannot tell the world about my secrets now, can I?”

  Crap, I might fall for her if I wasn’t stuck narrating this. Her silklike finger, the index one from her left hand, gently touches her soft voluptuous lips as she says this. With one of her beautiful golden eyes shut closed while the other one staring at Roxy with a mischievous look to it and with her head just slightly tilted sideways, she gently says this. Seriously, she looks extremely-

  “Cute…”

  I was about to say that, but Roxy was faster than me. It seems I wasn’t the only one who almost got trapped in a trance thanks to her beauty. Although I can say that, this word, this simple word left Roxy's mouth by itself as if it had a will of its own. At the same time, not only she says it quietly, almost to herself, her jaw stays a little bit wide open after saying it.

  Kiana- Erm, did you say something? Sorry, I couldn’t hear what you said…

  From that display of true beauty and mischievous side of her, she now has a confused look on her face as obviously, she was not able to hear what Roxy let out to the world. However, I do think that she would’ve become quite embarrassed if she heard it. At least I would, it’s not every day that someone calls you cute! Ah, how I wish Kiana would call me-

  “Ranks. What ranks would you give all of us? You know, the same ones that adventurers have.”

  Kiana- Yeah sure, right now all of you are at D- rank, the teacher is at a comfortable C rank while Alice should be around B- rank. As I said before, with proper training Miss Pandora could reach D rank while you could come closer to B rank. Although for this to happen, you do have to train quite hard.

  Roxy- That sure seems quite accurate, somewhat depressing and happy at the same time. Didn’t have a clue I was that weak, let alone I could reach such a rank. Oh well, it seems I will have to go to an island in the middle of the ocean to train, I guess. Must follow the turtle ways so that I can gain that power up and change my hair to yellow.

  Seriously! What is she on about!? This time for some god forsaken reason, with her hands she tries to show Kiana where that island would be! To make it worse, she says all of this with her monotone tone of voice. Whatever! It seems her lack of strength does not bother her at all, and to be honest why should it? Not everyone wants to be the strongest or strong in general, there are a lot of things in life that you can be good at, no point in getting depressed at being “bad” at something you have no interest in.

  Kiana- Ah, you don’t have to do that, you don’t need to be the strongest or something like that. Just follow what you want to be and work hard for it! Not only that-

  “I’m here with you! I will protect you no matter what! I’m quite confident in my powers after all!”

  With a smile from ear to ear she says this to Roxy. Her golden eyes now shine not thanks to her magic energy but because of her sincerity, her happiness. She means all of this and of course, with this small gesture we can easily see her Magical Girl persona.

  “Don’t worry, I will protect you!”

  Yep, that’s Magical Girl alright.

  “Thank you, Kiana, I will be counting on you if the time does come.”

  Oh my, am I seeing things? Was that a brief smile that Roxy did? Nah, no way, I’m seeing things. Roxy, she... She actually smiled at Kiana as she said that. It was a quick one as you can gather from my expert expression of my surprise, however, it was a soft and small one, but one nonetheless. That sure was unexpected but a welcome one, good job Kiana! Your Magical Girl charms are starting to take effect! Now, you just need to conquer her heart so that she can be all yours! Mhuahaha! A harem for our Kiana!
