Chương 4: Chapter Four: Faker Face Death

"Major, I have my reports, I'll be sending them all in a file, I hope you can see this, I'm sending it directly through your personal chips."

Valerie mumbled and equipped her weapons, one metal made sword, it was upgraded to the latest ore in Armenian so it's fifty times stronger, merged with Mana Stones and Power Stones to become powerful. With one of the latest prototype products, Shinigami. A two hand pistol gun, with the same qualities as per the sword.

Shinigami was named after a Japanese Grim Reaper, the Shinigami weapon is capable of unnatural complexes and power strikes as fast as any speed above the average of a machine gun shell.

Two of them are equipped as a two weapon arms weaponry. They can't be separated, the two of them are powerful together, so once they've been separated at least a mile away, it will affect the performance of the other weapon.

It will become a normal weapon, and harmless. This applies to all Shinigami weapons, but doesn't with Ryukuji weapons. The naming of weapons was decided by a Japanese language, that is why the name Ryukuji is not validated to any meaning, rather than, it is made up of base references.

Ryukuji is a sword weapon type. There are twin sword types, but they aren't as sensitive as Shinigami. They can deal damage as strong as any weapons in Armenia, it doesn't have a friction of power that is why Valerie can hold it.

These weapons absorb her own powers to maintain her control over her own Aria, and Esper's ability to absorb weapons helps her maintain her Aria's mana. That is why, amongst her sister, Valkyries. She harnessed enough to use Espers as efficiently as she could, and as fast as she could.

Lyrica has a two blade type weapon, this blade can convert into a gun over a push of a mana completion. She's times more powerful than Valerie in counts of using Espers but if Valerie turns into a lost sheep, her Aria will overtake her and she won't have no match with her.

Esper is weaker than Aria but doesn't mean as efficient as Aria. This power, Esper can deal with physical and mental, both spiritual and mind. It brings the user to her best of ability, but Espers can only be used by a Valkyrie.

So how could she attain such restricted ability?

Valerie was experimented on as a child, her body since accepted unnatural abnormalities like, unable to feel pain, accepts higher dosage of drugs, have the ability to corrupt her system and conceived a new cell that can withstand such blows.

She's capable of harnessing that ability, because of her past experience in being a human experimental subject. Her body accepts any abnormalities a normal body can't, it created a cell that could accept the ability inside of her.

That enough is the reason she can wield such power. She breathed out and looked at the double gun on her waist before she nodded. "Major?" She said while awaiting her superior's order.

Lyrica nodded at the file she saw and held the tips of her earplugs. "I'm releasing permission to attack, Cassandra has successfully stopped the operation for the meantime. Take care of them, and don't let anyone enter the main building."

"Accepted," she said and stood up. The enemies finally saw her after her hiding.

A few of them took her heads on in thought that was just like the other defense team, all of them don't attack unless attacked first, the defense Valkyrie was taught that way in order to defend the base. However, that doesn't apply to Valerie who's neither a Valkyrie nor a defensive puppet.

She's more than that.

Putting aside the fellow Valkyries fighting at the east side, the central was covered in enemies who's in charge of protecting the exit. She turned towards some of them trying to pierce a bullet in her body, and she invaded every single shot.

The enemies don't use sword nor blade, they can only use guns, however, guns are faster than a sword in philosophy but that doesn't apply to her as a weapon master. She used a Shinigami type, but her sword was named after Excalibur which meant "the sword of King Arthur" a legendary medieval hero of this world. The Excalibur was said to be the most powerful sword ever alive.

Yet for such a sword, it must be wielded only by the true king. Even in myth this legend shouldn't be suppressed. The wielder must be the king she truly believes, a king who is neither born from a commoner nor a royal, a king who is brave and fierce.

She breathed out and smiled. Her speed as before changed, her enemies couldn't even see her moving towards one of their allies. She appeared before them and hit him in the belly where blood flooded from his stomach.

He tried fighting back by trying to shoot her with a handgun, it did work—mostly but he ended up getting strike in the stomach once more until he no longer breathed.

"You!"

One of them ran towards her but she only blinked and disappeared. Like what she did earlier, she ran faster than any of their eyes could see but she stopped half way through when a bullet suddenly hit her one inch from her face.

Unpredictable, someone can still see her at that speed, she thought and nodded. She looked at the one who almost hit her and stared blankly. Unlike all of the enemies, the one in front of her was a woman, wearing a navy uniform and ponytail.

A child? No, she does look like a child but she's not.

"You are an offensive Valkyrie?" The child-like girl asked.

Valerie pulled her sword back and nodded. "Yes," she stiffly answered.

The girl laughed. "Finally, I've been waiting for you, dear Valkyrie! I am Angelica, the only successfully mobile artificial machine created by humans!"

Her eyes widened, Valerie frowned. A successful human tool, ehh? She thought and smiled stiffly. Even humans can make such beings, but that's impossible with human resources. They didn't have the items, or anything that can use a heart to function a dead metal body.

That means, she looked at her. She's not a full metal made, she's a human in body and mind although in advance. She smiled and nodded.

"Tell me, Miss Angelica, what deal did you have in order to throw away your humanity like a scrap of marble trash?"

Angelica gritted her teeth. "How did you know!?" Angelica always believed that her past life could have disappeared from this world as she agreed to be a human experimental subject.

She succeeded in becoming one but she lost her human features. Her lifespan, and her youth itself. That is why she doesn't look much like a child, she gives up her chance for happiness in the sake of human greed.

"Valkyrie is made of metal but you are not, can you guess? That's because humanity can't achieve the power Sir Caleb has."

Valerie then pointed her finger as if she's insulting her but Angelica didn't take that as a warning, instead a threat.

"Shut up! You piece of scrap! How can a metal made from garbage talk to a human superior to them! You are a servants of humanity! I don't want to become like you, dead and annoying insects who don't belong to this world!"

She didn't think that she'd take that personally. However, that's not what a human mouth should be saying.

"Who said I'm a robot?" Valerie asked. This question made Angelica numbed, as if she's questioning if what was in front of her was a machine or human but she did think none of them fits her origin.

She pulled her Excalibur back and walked towards her. Many of the men soldiers tried stopping her but she was only stabbed them in the chest, blood scattered on the ground where both metal and human blood lay.

Angelica tried shooting her from a distance but her slow movement didn't help her. Valerie moves slowly while showing her fairness in a fight between a weak human and an Armenian.

"Damn! Why? Why? Why is this thing does not follow my command! Help! Help me!"

Angelica's distressed voice made the male enemies fight despite the fear of dying. Some of them ran towards her and tried using military knives, some shoot from a distance and none of them was able to stop her.

She kicked the first one like it was nothing, then her sword went flying on the other side where a man's face was almost hit, the others were shoot by her gun and others went flying after a few kicks.

Angelica's face turned pale, overwhelmed by fear and hesitance in front of her. She was looking at that same woman who killed many of her allies. Her face was unfazed, her expression didn't show anything and despite being a teenager, she looked like a devil with her face that doesn't look like someone of that age.

It scared her, how could she fight such a monster? She told herself and covered her mouth.

"This is why Caleb didn't use any human heart."

She mumbled and lifted her sword. "May you reincarnate in a peaceful life," she said and she didn't hesitate to cut her off. The splash of Angelica's blood mixed with the other humans who miserably died in her hand.

The blood splashes through her right hand and she carefully looks at it. For Valerie, this job has always been her way of living, no one can blame her. She didn't just lose her happiness in childhood nor the memories of her mother, she also lost so many of her emotions.

Empathy, sympathy, ego, sadness, frustration and her true smile.
