"Just to confirm, no magic is allowed, correct?" I asked, right before my duel with Amane began.
"Indeed. I would like to see a battle of physical strength, not magic," the catwoman - matriarch of the Neko Clan and Amane's mother - said in response.
Alright...that makes it easier for Amane to take me down, which in turn makes it easier for me to accomplish my goal in coming here. Besides, my mana is also quite low, so I would like to avoid using any more if possible, until I get it refilled again. In any case, good start so far.
"What about guns? If I shoot a bullet and Amane ends up not being able to block it, wouldn't that kill her?" I asked.
"Do you have another weapon?" the matriarch asked, raising an eyebrow.
I thought about it for a second, then made my decision. "Yeah, I do."
Heya guys! Cyclxne here.
This chapter originally had more to it, but by the time I finished, there was uh...3 thousand words. So, I decided to split it into two chapters for convenience of reading (and also to keep the pattern I've been keeping up of 1.5k words/chapter, more or less).
Hopefully, this battle was exciting to read - of course, it's not finished yet. But almost. A little more in the next chapter, and it's done, and we'll talk about the aftermath.
Anyway, that's all from me for now!
And as always, I'll see you guys again in the next chapter~
