Bab 22: Growth and Results
Adelheid Suzuki
Devil Trainer Extraordinaire
Zero Tolerance for Weakness
"ALRIGHT KIDS TODAY YOU PROVE TO ME THAT YOURE NO LONGER KIDS, ITS SIMPLE 1V1 AGAINST ME. LAND A HIT AND YOU GET A 3 DAY BREAK. STAY IN THE CIRCLE FOR 5 MINUTES YOU GET A 1 DAY BREAK. GET KNOCKED OUT AND YOU'LL BE TRAINED PERSONALLY BY HIBARI!" As i yell out orders i see them shiver in fear at the idea of fighting Hibari personally. That man is the type to break your nose with a healing flame fist so you feel the pain without any of the damage. Truly monstrous.
"Is it really that bad? It cant be that tough right? I mean we are devils, and she's still human" quips Momo the white haired girl to the rest of her peerage on the side.
But before i can rebuttle the girl gets covered in a purple and black Aura as she falls to her knees and Aika and Ashleen walks out of the house behind her. "Human or not underestimating your opponent is the fastest way to die, one of the scariest men alive is a man named Frankenstein in Korea and hes completely human" explains Ashleen.
Ignoring them i face back towards the kids and look them in the eye and see that none of them flinch. GOOD. "Whos first?" Immediately Akeno steps forward with her introduction "Naturally as Rias' queen i cannot allow my King to come out first." I smile at this girl, as annoying as this Ara ara tweetie bird is, she's strong and diligent. I take out my fans and face her.
"Ara ara are you sure you dont want to use that fancy ring of yours" she teases but i can tell it irks her seeing me use my base weapons. So i keep it simple, look her im the eye and say "Make me."
No talk only Action is allowed in this 4 yard circle. She charges up her lightning and coats it around her body before taking out her whip. Hmmm 4 seconds thats too long to charge up. She rushes me with her whip at the ready but i intercept her by grabbing the whip pulling her forward before she lets go and launches a kick towards my abdomen. I bring up my fan to dodge before she accelerates and vanishes. I use my Haki to catch her behind me so i duck and wrap her leg in her whip and slam her on the ground before pulling her back towards me and with a swift kick i launch her out the circle. I hear a gasp and put the corner of my eye is the Sitri peerage staring shocked.
"Not bad Akeno you lasted longer this time, youre combat senses are improving but it takes you too long to charge up and even longer to adjust before you can accelerate. Also you let go of the whip instead you should've hardened the whip using it as an anchor to leverage me backwards giving you time to adjust instead of releasing it while it was still in my hand. If it wasnt a spar i wouldve wrapped it on your neck and a simple shock wouldve decapitated you." Sometimes its necessary to drop your weapon but its also a danger if your opponent is well versed in weapons. Akeno took a deep sigh before walking over to Law for a check up and Kiba stepped forward.
"Are you ready Kiba-kun?" He nods with a determination and he holds out his hands before trying the technique my Hibari taught him.
"UNLIMITED BLADE WORKS" he yells as countless swords and daggers fill in the battle field. A technique where he and he alone benefits as only he can use the blade his sacred gear creates. Impressive none the less only 8 seconds to stabilize the image and 3 more to pull it off.
He dashes at me and pulls a short sword out of the ground before he covers it in his haki and slashes upwards. I parry with my fan as an Odachi comes swinging in from my blind side which i dodge with a spin before bringing up my fans in an X to stop the western sword from scratching my pride. I squint my eyes when i noticed him almost slash my disciplinary badge and i get a little serious as i kick him hard in the chest using a bit of my glacier flames and haki. He tried to block it with two daggers near him but they shatter and he's sent flying.
"Not bad but you need more awareness of what weapon is where and when to use them in what situations. Your Haki is stronger but still takes too long to coat otherwise those daggers wouldn't have snapped."
He thanks me with a smile and a bow before heading over to law. Next up is Koneko. She steps in the ring and immediately launches at me with a Haki covered fist. I meet her fist with my own before she jumps back landing on her feet before spinning into a side.kick with a haki covered foot. I bring up my arm to block but then she catches me off guard by hooking her leg around my arm then pulling it down while using the momentum to lift her other leg off the ground bringing it down on top of me. I try to position my other hand when she uses the leg with my arm still in its grip to pull my whole body downwards trying to pincer me between her leg and elbow. This girl is truly a genius. I smile before activating my glacier flames to block her attack and she jumps away.
"Hahaha it seems as if Koneko is the strongest one in your peerage after all huh." For the first time since we started i take a stance. I throw my first fan at her as she bends backwards to duck yet as ita sailing over her head i rush forward sweeping her feet out then with a spin bringing my heel into her side and sending her flying. Right before she crashes into a tree a semi transparent circle surrounds the area as shes switched with a pillow and i look over to see her on a cot next to Law. He nods as i stare at Rias.
"The rest of your peerage has gotten stronger. Are you ready to show me the result of your hard work Rias?"
She looks down at the little cuff on her wrist before taking a deep breath and stepping forward with a resolute look in her eye. She has the orange book strapped to a belt behind her back. She looks at me before taking a Jujitsu stance. Rias isnt a fist fighter but at least she can hold her own against anyone at her level.
I step back and look at her before she yells 'SAISU' and launching a pinkish energy blade at me. I duck and rush in towards her only to be stopped by a 'MA SEUSHIRU' which forms a pink shield in front of her. I smirk and spin around the shield only to be met with another 'SAISU' to the face. I try to jump back only to realize that i got caught in her 'SEUSHIRO' dome and with no where to go i got hit with her 'SAISU'. It does no damage but i sit there stunned at the idea that she hit me.
"Hahahahahaha i must admit i didn't expect you to cast the Ma spell to lure me in close to trap me in your Seushiro dome so i cant jump back. While its easy to break the barrier and the Saisu doesnt have much power behind it you truly have grown Rias." She smiles and rubs the back of her head as the rest of her peerage including our group and Sona's peerage claps for her. "Congratulations Rias you get to take a break for 3 days. Now rest well youve earned it, as for the rest of you tomorrow same time."
"Um, Can i come back tomorrow as well? I dont feel comfortable taking a break seeing the rest of my peerage still working." I smile at Rias' growth before taking a key out of my natural chest pocket and throwing it to her. "Thats the key to your cuff. Starting tomorrow you guys work 1 hour with Aika and gravity training. Afterwards you guys will work an hour with Ashleen on your stealth and tracking skills, before coming back to me for combat and theory for the next 2 hours then an hour break and finishing it up with Chrome's mental training. Now go get some rest."
They bow towards me and i see Rias uncuff her bracelet as her destruction magic runs through her once more pushing her power levels back up, and after playing with it for a bit she locks the cuff back up and puts the key in her natural storage compartment. Im so proud.
"Um is it possible to train my peerage as well?" I turn around to see Sona standing there with her 3 girls behind her but before i can respond eveyone stops when they head his voice say "Of course I'll train you all myself." Needless to say Rias' group gave them looks of Pity while Sona's group just looked lost. Hehe poor new kids.
