Chapter 3: Mika Amami The SS-Rank Adventurer (1)
Good day, readers. Quite a few mentions were sent to me regarding the element, which is "ELECTRICITY" and not "LIGHTNING."
So here is my response: I intend to make "LIGHTNING" the development of "ELECTRICITY." Consequently, it will change in the future.
I appreciate you reading My Book.
*******************
As I waited for the monster to emerge from the gate,
Soon after, I noticed a silhouette of a monster the size of the building; it was only one, but I know how dangerous that bastard is...
It was an A-Rank monster....a huge one-eyed cyclops wielding a massive hammer.
Despite its size, its speed is not to be underestimated, and it has monstrous strength, which means a single hit from it will turn me into meat paste.
"...."
But I wasn't intending on fleeing because I'm used to fighting monsters that are stronger than me, and I simply need to buy some time until reinforcements come because the security on the floating island is superior to that of any other kingdom.
I was pondering my next move when I heard the monster growl.
ROARRRRRRRR...
Hearing the monster's roar I found an opening in his defense so I decided to make my first move, I began rushing towards it by manipulating electricity around my legs, and using my skill snake steps which increased my speed drastically, catching the monster off guard, I struck its ankles, but it wasn't powerful enough,
"It's too shallow," I grumbled to myself.
The monster was surprised to see me unharmed by the pressure it was releasing and yelled out in pain owing to the pain in its ankle.
It swung its hammer with full force as if to crush me beneath it, but I had already anticipated it and dodged his strike successfully.
The pressure it was emitting was no joke, but due to me already being used to the pressure stronger than it, and as my soul force is already used to that much pressure, I wasn't affected much.
If it was anyone other than me, they would have been paralyzed and would have been trembling in fear.
The monster appeared quite angry as a result of my gimmick, and it rushed toward me with its huge body, but its speed says otherwise;
It slammed his huge hammer to crush me beneath it again, but I dodged the hammer with thins breath and rushed towards it by manipulating electricity around my legs,
I then climbed its hand at a rapid pace, and decked my sword into its only eye.
The Cyclope was horrified by my unexpected attack and shouted in pain, and blood began gushing from its eye like a stream.
ROARRRRR...
Due to its pain, it began swinging its hammer left and right with all of its might, destroying all of the surrounding structures.
The shockwaves threw me far away from it, and I ended up striking the building at high speed while spewing blood all around.
I tried to soften the impact by burying my sword below with all my effort, but the sword ended up breaking.
"Well, I guess it was too early for me to face an A-Rank monster," I muttered to myself with a smile.
With blood gushing all over my body and a few shattered bones, I was barely conscious due to pain.
Even though my body was well trained due to prior Ares being the swordsman and him not neglecting his training, it still had a toll on this teenage body.
'Using electricity manipulation was still too much for my current body, and I need to get familiarize myself with using with snake movements technique as well,' I thought.
I tried to stand up using the shattered sword as a support because the monster was still alive and approaching me slowly by detecting my presence, the only thing slowing him down being that its eye was now blinded.
The monster was not that far away from me and I was planning my next measure, as to deal with it.
But as it got closer to me, I noticed that the monster's movements entirely halted.
I peered at the creature, trying to figure out why it had stopped so suddenly, but the scene in front of me made my eyes widen in amazement...
"...."
I noticed a massive crimson trail on the monster from the middle of its head to its lower abdomen, which resembled a clean sword cut, and shortly its body was torn into two halves, each dropping to either side.
And behind its corpse, I noticed a silhouette of a figure, who appeared to be a woman, carrying a katana in her hand, and it appeared that she was the one who had slain that monster.
She was slowly approaching me now.
The woman was dressed in a black and white kimono, with her black hair put in a bun, and her black keen eyes, with a beauty mark beneath her left eye, made her look even more lovely.
She was carrying two dark black katanas, one in her right hand and another katana hanging around the left side of her waist, she approached me and stood, right in front of me, without speaking up any word.

After seeing her up close, I got to know immediately who she was.
She was Mika Amami one of the Few SS-Rank Adventurers in this world.
She has a Crazy-Yandere-type personality, and in the novel, she was overly obsessed with her only disciple.
In the future, she would single-handedly slaughter the whole branch of Adventurer Guild, due to her disciple getting slightly hurt during his mission because its difficulty was somewhat greater than what was mentioned by the guild.
'Yup, she is 'that' crazy woman,' I thought to myself.
She just stood there staring at me. I, too, glanced back at her without saying anything. While my entire body was in pain and drenched in blood.
A glitter could be seen in each of our eyes as we stared at each other, and only silence fell between us.
Mika broke the silence after a few moment, she didn't even ask me my name, nor did she inquire about my injuries.
She only stated three words, cold and straight-faced,
"Be My Disciple,"
And I lost consciousness immediately after hearing those words, due to significant blood loss..., and definitely not because of those utterances.
"....."
