Chapter 34: Chapter 3 The Weakest Squad, Team Evaluation. Cont. 5

[A/N: Today’s typing was a little interesting. I didn’t think it would end up going into this direction. Forgive me I’m more into writing tragedy and dark stories so romance and drama related stuff is a little tough for me. Pls give me your honest thoughts on it. Also forgive me for the slow update, slow at typing and difficulty in description. I'd like to ask you guys how i can grow my audience as well, i hope to get some ideas from you guys. Working on the Cover photo, taking some drawing courses so i could do it myself.]

Part 2

Some two hours later it was our turn. It's was announced over the P.A.

"Challenge bout, this batch's 'unnamed' vs the Bravers. Begins in 20 minutes Report to your waiting stations..." Repeated a few, for everyone could hear even if missed earlier.

We gathered in the waiting room. We would be he but Rinji was nowhere to be found.

"Where is he?"

Rinji had told me how everything was going with Shimura-san's training, but he felt no results. The last three days he had being with the captain sparing and taking advice but it didn't mean he'd get strong over night. Unless...

I know his goals and all, desperately trying to achieve it, that he's still train with our mentor even as he saw no progress himself. In actuality it was too early for him to be hoping to see any improvement. After all, this is something that takes years to even fully understand the fundamentals. And look at us even we are still nowhere. But even with his goals he was rushing too much, even if it was something ordered by the bigwigs.

[Don't push yourself to obsession RInji. That attitude is toxic.]

"So what's the plan, Kae?" Shinosaki, blowing her gum, asked.

"We are outnumbered. We divide and conquer."

"Fair enough, but I don['t see them easily falling for it." I stood to the wall, my arms crossed.

"We have to try. Outnumbered and outmatched but if we can take them out one by one we can even the playing field. First we go after the weaker ones."

So we strategized a bit. This simple strategy is only plausible. Ozaki is a proud, though he's still a little thick skinned when come to his ego. He is the type to want to dominate, so there is a chance he'd not care and go with the flow wanting to crush us even with a plan set.

...

"Five minutes remain. Both teams should enter the arena."

We stood up after the announcement left the room walking down the corridor.

"He's still not here." Ro timidly said.

"There's no need to wait for him any longer. This wasn't his fight to begin with. Come on!" I said to him, a quick pat on his back to urge him.

Out through the threshold we came into the empty arena. I feel embarrassed to but there was not much of cheers only mockery. We ignore the sombre atmosphere moving into the arena a little.

On the other side when the Bravers came through we were drowned in applauds and cheers. We could only were self-deprecating smiles.

 

I wonder what environment they'd give us?

It didn't take long for my question to be answered. The walls around the arena opened up an array of project-like machines. They were used for mapping the empty flat arena we find ourselves and overlaying them with the terrains and environment we would do battle. If you could look within the eye of the projector, you'd see a bunch of magic circles, diagrams and runes forming layers of spheres. And then there was the three rings that revolved in opposition to the layered sphere. Truly a magnificent work of the art.

I honest do admire the ingenuity of magic art and their compositions. It really is a shame that the Awakened can't use magic. As much as I love it would I have traded for it?... Neh This me is fine.

So we got a scene just like when Ozaki's team had fought earlier. A ruin in a forest. Though looking slightly different and much denser.

I honestly thought they'd give up a suburb or perhaps a war zone, swamp, desert. Nonetheless a fight is a fight, it doesn't matter the location.

...

A minute after the environment, that looked something like a 3D printer, came for the vice on the P.A rang.

"In 30 seconds match shall begin. Hope you are prepared?"

We had taking our post in one of the ruins, surrounded by trees.While I leaned on a wall, such realistic texture, Shinosaki was perch on the top to my side. Inxy as usual is asleep on a large block. Ro and Cap stood before us, though she was somewhat angled towards the opposition's team in the distance which was hidden from our eyes in the lush of green.

A blue translucent countdown appeared before us.

"Ah, Cap, I think this is the time you're supposed to give us some awe inspiring speech." I was being sarcastic. To lighten up the tense atmosphere, but I didn't think she'd oblige,

"Try not to lose badly" She gave us a wry smile.

Wry smile and nervous chuckles was heard among us. Not a reassuring start.

10... 9... 8... 7...

"Sorry I'm late."

Just when the tense air got even tense with every second a familiar voice spoke. We looked to the side and saw Rinji stopping over from  run, a little out of breath, a sheathed sword in his hand. I can't put a pin on it but he seems a little different from before.

"What took you?" Cap asked with her usual smile for him.

"Got held up a little."

"Well at least you're here." Ro came close. He smile back at him, though a bit awkwardly.

"It's good to have you." I say.

I do appreciate Rinji's camaraderie. Even though he isn't meant to he, puts his mates first. He has it rough but he still keen on assisting. He is one who would do well and everything for his team success. Don't tell anyone I said that~.

"No time for idle talks. Times up." Shinosaki reminded us. And then came the mechanical voice on the P.A.

"Match begins."

Cap quickly pull her katana from its scabbard behind her. Everyone preparing themselves for attack.

"No time to delay. Hoshi-kun bring Rinji-kun with you and bring him up to speed on the plan."

"Yes Cap." I turn to Rinji. "Come, let's be on our way."

With a nod from him. We split from the group taking the side. Ro and Shinosaki, heading in the opposite direction. The Cap would move with Inyx after. There is only so much Inyx can do with her unique ability without facing facing its backlash.

Since the plan was a simple one I told Rinji, though I wasn't using much of strength he was keeping up with relative ease. He really seems to have grown stronger. What happened? Is it what I think it is?

"... I think I get it, somehow." I can only awkwardly chuckled at how hard he looked trying to grasp the simplicity of it.

...

On the oppositions side. Minutes before the match

The Blazers stood on the other end of the simulated terrain. A group of ten plus one Ozaki.

"I don't see why the Captain's obsessed with The Unnamed's Captain."

"If she's with that group then she's one of them."

Four were gathered at one side glancing towards Ozaki who stood alone peering to the distance.

"You two only came in recently but She was part of our Blazers before transferring out to join the unnamed.."

"I heard rumors that because of, she was to be kicked out and..." he glanced Ozaki's way. "And married off to him, as a way of uniting their family."

"It was for the same reason the higher ups sent her off to the unnamed."

"... So she's the Captain's fiancee?" One of the new questioned.

"Well, from what I hear she hasn't accepted but the captain doesn't plan on giving up."

"That's Captain Oxak for you."

"Hey don't think too much about it... And don't Vice hear you. Time's almost up psyche you minds."

A distance away, quietly sitting, a girl blankly staring ahead. Her above shoulder length hair was covered half her face, but you could clearly see her beauty on par with Yasagawa. Her eyes pricked as she listened to in on the discussions on the people around, some preparing and others idle chatter, focusing on what the quad had said. She squinted her eyes in disdain.

A little away from the group Ozaki stood rooted, a hand in his pocket, the other a half fist to his and a subtle smile on.

"Why are you hung up on her?"

"She is the only one worthy of me. And I must make myself worthy of her." He answered without looking at who it was.

A man? Boy? A teenager who look bigger and much muscular for his age dressed in their unique uniform, sleeves rolled up stopped by his side.

"It was only words of children. You're a passed that age."

"Maybe but I will prove to her that I am stronger and useful for her."

"You really are a blockhead. Do you think doing this would prove you are superior? Why not look at the one close by. You know she has always been by your side why not look at her. She bared with your obsession even till now in hopes for a chance that you'd see her."

The ignored the blue translucent countdown before them.

"It will. We will dominate this match. Overwhelm them. She looked down on me when we were young, she still does, even as one with a weaker ability she was able to surpass me. I will prove to her my worth and usefulness and have her accept me." He balled a tight fist.

"You are delusional--"

Ozaki interrupted, a quarter turn to his friend.

"... And what of you? You always watch her from afar. You say I'm delusion, yet you haven't even tried even a little to get closer to her."

"I know I can never get her to look at me the way she does you. I am musclehead after all." He gave an awkward chuckle to a self deprecating smile.

"... We all face the same problem." He concluded, turning away.

"I can't believe us four friends ended up like this." Ozaki looked reminiscent as he spoke.

"You say that but I doubt Yasagawa considered us such..." A soft voice came from their side.
