Chereads / Mystic Academy (Rewritten) / Chapter 12 - Chapter 11

Chapter 12 - Chapter 11

It was rare for the map to rain as they fought onwards, the debuff being nothing as both players managed to bypass the debuff, using their constant stance switch to give them a single second of regular slashes. Like before they couldn't land a hit on each other as the timer reached sixty seconds, their health was just about the same as the swords and daggers they were using were only grazing each other's clothes and skin.

Both ReapingClover77 and DragonHarvest419 continued their onslaught as both used Leaping slash at the same time, 45 seconds. Both leaped at each other as they swung at the same time, their blades clashing once again as both turned around and launched the same move four more times. relishing tides, a movement style skill, into Exodus strike, an upward swing but a horizontal swing for daggers, then Grasping might, a command grab which cancels itself out, into a fake out quick slash.

With only 30 seconds on the timer both players jump back as they begin their chants.

"O' mighty Azure Dragon from the depth of the seas, heed my call and come fourth! Fight alongside your caller and help attain victory in your name!!"

"Death itself make yourself known, lend me your power and use my body as your vessel, let them feel pain and let them taste death!"

Both players intend on finishing the match as 15 seconds remain on the clock as a blue dragon comes up from the ocean depths, lightning strikes onto the dragon as the lightning begins to form and coat the dragon in a lightning-like armor. However, on the other side, a boat appears behind ReapingClover77, a hooded figure climbs out of the creepy looking boat as it hands the scythe to ReapingClover77. Without hesitation ReapingClover77's hand grabs onto the scythe as he spins it around him as he takes a different stance.

14…13…12…11…10…!

DragonHarvest419 launches the Azure dragon, using his sword as it's point of target, the dragon spiraling around the sword as the lightning sparks off of the dragon, forming a second dragon on the opposite side as they spiral around the sword towards ReapingClover77. However, ReapingClover77 stays in his spot, smiling before he spins and tosses the scythe like a spinning dagger, seeing it spin as it begins to form a black cloud.

9…!

8…!

7…!

6…!

5…!

The black cloud and the sword reach ever closer as the black cloud forms into the top hood and a skull underneath it, representing death itself as both items clash into each other.

4…!

Both begin running towards their items as ReapingClover77 and DragonHarvest419 both toss a secondary item towards the middle while they were running.

3…!

About halfway towards the clashed sword and scythe, both players switch places with their second thrown items as they both reach out to their summoned items.

2…!

Both players grasp onto their weapons as they both pull at the same time, retracting their weapons towards them.

1…!

Both players then swing again, ReaperClover77 doing a backspin to gain the most momentum to full swing his scythe as DragonHarvest419 forward spun, gaining the most momentum for his spiraling sword.

0…!

***

The Winner is…ReapingClover77!!!

A winner screen shows up on Kimura's screen as he sighs out of relief, sitting back on his chair as he was completely stressed about that duel.

"H-How did you win??"

A voice appears behind him as he jumps a bit in his chair, sitting up to see Ayameko over his shoulder, invested in what she watched.

"Jesus! What the fuck are you doing here Ayameko?!?"

"Well, you both clashed, didn't you? Then why did you win?"

"Uh, dagger."

"What?" Ayameko was confused.

"Dagger. My dagger landed on his side." Kimura says without hesitation.

"No, it didn't, I just saw you teleport and-"

"I didn't use that skill, I used it's variant."

"Huh?" she sounded dumbfounded.

"The variant allows the dagger to continue its track, while I can just do whatever, it's a simple slight of hand but it works efficiently."

"Huh…"

"I CAN'T BELIEVE I LOST TO THAT TRASHFUCK CLOVER77!!!"

The voice came from below them as Kimura and Ayameko went silent for a second, looking over the railing as they saw the player who was taking their time raging at his computer, eventually being kicked out for causing a ruckus and disrupting the chill vibes of the café.

"Pfft-"

Kimura and Ayameko laughed a bit at that as they just witnessed a rage moment within a net café. Kimura had the most out of him for the day as he wasn't expecting his opponent to also be here in the same café.

"That had to be coincidental!"

"Honestly, at this point I can't tell."

This was the first time Ayameko and Kimura were on the same page unlike yesterday, but it was short lived when Ayameko decided to try out the game herself. Sitting down beside where Kimura sat, she booted up the game as she made a username called TwistedFury81.

A button showed up for her saying if she'd like to try out the tutorial first. Tutorial? Tutorials are for bitches… she pressed decline as it showed up once again, giving a warning this time.

"Are you sure you don't want to do the tutorial?" Kimura asked her.

"Yeah, I'm sure, how hard can it be?" Those were Ayameko's final words before the hell she faced.

Within only the first mission, Ayameko was pushing buttons as she was being swarmed, deciding to play solo as she was being swarmed by arachnids.

"AH! NONO! MOVE!!"

She shouted, leaning forward as she began pressing buttons at random, doing random things as she later died from poison. Poison?!?! Ayameko re-ran the mission again as she began playing through it a little more efficiently as the swarm of arachnids was where she was taking the most damage.

The large Silk Weaver Spiders were poisoning her without her knowing as she hacks and slashes them down, upon reaching the next room her screen turned green as she saw her player fall to the floor.

"You've died from poison. Would you like to try again? (1 Times left)"

"...Yes…I…Would…GAME…"

She was furious at this point as Kimura couldn't help himself but let out a small tinge of laughter from his covered mouth as she looked over at him with intense anger. Kimura let out another small laugh as he couldn't contain his laughter, bursting out laughing.

"WHAT'S SO FUNNY HUH!!!"

She shouted at him as Kimura fell onto the bean bag laughing still as he wiped tears of joy from his eyes. Ayameko gritted her teeth a bit out of frustration as she picked out something from her bag, tossing it smack dab on Kimura's face.
