{Almost two weeks before MFC 11}
"Are you really enjoying all this, Shin?" Matt sipped his tea on the balcony of Shin's mansion.
The ninja smiled, looking at the evening sky. "Of course, sir. This is all wonderful."
"You're probably wondering why I came here." The president put his cup back on the table. "Well, I just wanted to chat with you a little."
"I'm glad you want to chat with me. I will always be open with you." The champion widened his smile.
Matt could feel that the smile was genuine. Shin is thrilled to be in his current position.
"What if I told you there are things you have never achieved." Matt continued.
The ninja nodded. "Well,
"Shori, marry me!" Norug, wearing a neat white suit, knelt in front of the tribe woman. The dwarf warrior's hand opened a small red box containing a gold ring.Shori just came out of the cafeteria, frozen. There was no sign of embarrassment on her face, even though she and that man were the center of several people's attention."Sorry." The tribe woman just walked past Norug. "I can't accept it."The dwarf warrior's teeth chattered. He slammed that ring and shouted. "Tell me what you want! I don't know about things like this! Please, tell me how to make you want to be with me!!!"Shori stopped. Still using a cold tone, she answered. "There's nothing you can do. I don't want to be in a relationship with anyone."The Dwarf's ha
"I don't see Elisa anywhere." Gwae, wearing a green dress, looked around at the outdoor party. People were wearing neat clothes and enjoying luxurious food and drinks. Still, the former prophet was indeed nowhere to be seen. "Is her condition so bad that she doesn't want to come here?"Ariel took a sip of her wine. "I only know that she was moved from here, but I don't know where she is. Maybe for therapy.""I'm sure she'll take a long time." Wearing a burgundy dress, Lexi approached the two women. "She has a close bond with her goddess, and that's the only reason she fights. She must have complicated feelings about that."Matt went up to the stage, and it attracted the attention of the staff and fighters at the party."I don't want to disturb all of your fun. Maybe you guys don't want to see my face because of the Zerneider situation." The president started his speech. "But let's toast because we managed to beat All-savages in the number of viewers!!!"
Seraphina Thornhill stood in the middle of the CoB arena. The orange-haired dragon lady no longer uses her usual form. Her body was naked, but some parts were covered in crimson-colored scales, including her private sections. Her horns are much larger, and her glowing eyes are fixed on her opponent: Kenzo, the faceless samurai."MFC has a champion whose weapon is similar to yours." The dragon lady snorted. She had to raise her voice to counter the loudness of the audience. "Can you just give up and let me be the champion? This is my longest fight in CoB."Kenzo looked down. Several small pieces of his cracked, plain mask fell off."Still too lazy to talk, huh?" Seraphina raised her sword, which was burning with fire. "I hate the way you are."The dragon lady ran forward, and she clashed swords with Kenzo. Several times, transparent clones of the samurai emerged from the thin air and attacked Seraphina."Do you know why I'm happy with the current Co
The whisper was followed by an epic orchestral song, as usually found in historical films' epic moments. The audience was confused. They've never heard that music.Seraphina's attention was drawn to the entrance. Gilbert then signaled the medical team to take a few steps back.The music continued for a while without anyone appearing, then a silver-haired woman came out.The audience's roar erupted."It's Elisa Weinreich!!??" The male commentator squeezed his head. "It's really Elisa Weinreich, complete with her casket, silver armor, and blindfold!!!"The former prophet walked towards the arena, carrying the giant casket on her shoulder."What is she doing here!!???" The female commentator even rubbed her eyes to make sure it was really Elisa. "She joined CoB!!?? She is an elite fighter in M… She is at the top in another organization!!! How can she be here!!??"With her chin lowered, Seraphina walked closer to the silver-haired
"I can't believe this." Sitting next to Matt to watch that match on the laptop, Lexi massaged her forehead. "She's so synonymous with MFC, and she is the daughter of Lady Askreim…. This… I'm speechless."The president took a deep breath. "I don't know what to do with Elisa. The Goddess of this world entrusted her to me. So, I am responsible for Elisa.""Yeah." Megumi put on a faint smile. "You just want the best for her."Shin approached the three. "I was the one who suggested this. In the past, I felt more free when I wasn't just fighting for others. But the problem is, Elisa is so tied to her Goddess and this world."Lexi looked at the laptop again, which had now switched to displaying another program. "Weirdly enough, I feel that makes sense. Let her fight somewhere else first until she recovers from her pain, then you can summon her again here, Mr. President… You will bring her to MFC again in the future, right?""Of course
The visitors from the MFC exhibition hall had gone home, leaving the place empty. Shin stood in front of Zerneider's area, looking at the frames containing photos and articles of that hero.The Bazaiger walked over to the ninja, looking at several shooting drones. "You called me to hype the match, huh? This must be Matthew Nash's request, right?""No, this is my own initiative." The ninja looked at Daigo and smiled. "Ah, sorry. I've been smiling a lot lately. Maybe I'm enjoying all this too much."The corners of Bazaiger's lips turned down, indicating he wasn't amused. "This is what differentiates me from you, young man. I don't fight for trivial things like pleasing myself. I fight for my world and humanity."Shin approached Daigo, still smiling. "You remind me of the 'scientists' in my village. To protect our country, they put the essence of Enenra into some of our babies. Well, even though the project was canceled, and the only one left is me."
After a series of fireworks explosions followed by roaring cheers from the audience, Salvia's electric hip-hop song filled the stadium. "We started this special MFC earlier than usual. That's because Rory only has a little time before returning to his world." Matt explained as Salvia slid towards the arena. Lognar responded. "Hope this is not the last we see of him at MFC. He is one of our great fighters." Matt was worried that the audience would hijack the stadium by chanting Elisa's name. But it seems like the ongoing storylines at MFC make them not think about that. At least for now. The audience's voices became even more thunderous as soon as the regal military music was played. The big screen showed Rory doing his signature long walk backstage. Some of the staff and fighters lined up on the right and left of the hallway, clapping their hands or raising their fists to show their support. The red-haired warrior waved at
But the dwarf commentator's expectations did not come true. That rope of light continued to extend and entangled more of Salvia's body.But the cyberpunk queen managed to put her hand around her neck, preventing her from suffocating. Even so, her body felt the immeasurable heat from those ropes of light energy. That thing keeps penetrating her magic barrier."Salvia's position is extremely disadvantageous!" Lognar shouted. "Is this the end of this match!?"Rory stood up and was about to hit Salvia with his shield. The bonds on the cyberpunk queen's body were already so tight, and she was in an unfavorable pose.She only needs to make the wheels on her skate touch the floor slightly, and she can perform a maneuver. Unfortunately, the rope of light energy had already entangled her legs. That woman really couldn't move."Sorry." Rory raised his shield high.But Salvia's skates extend mechanical frames that carry the rotating wheels to touch the
