"Ahahahaha aha I already suspect Hunn will win this duel. But I didn't think it would end so soon." Says Vahn who had seen the match as he had predicted.
"Huh? What did you mean just now? How could you predict that? I mean, can you see what's going on in there? I didn't see anything!" Spike asked Vahn
"Which is why I'm asking you to refuse to fight Borg before. They both are well below Borg rank. If you cannot even grasp the meaning of this fight, then it is impossible for you to win it." Silver's giving Spike advice back.
Some of the prisoners have started trying to get back to their respective activities now. They've seen enough bloodshed on one side of the issue.
"I'm still confused, what are they fighting for? Why take the position of a gang in a prison like this?" Spike asked the two men next to him.
"Being the leader of a gang means you have more power than a common prisoner. Any Credit point your people have can go to their chief. It’s just a fool for someone who refuses to become a gang leader." Answered silvers.
"What good is that stupid point if it can only buy junk food in a place like this?" Spike back again.
"What good is that stupid point if it can only buy junk food in a place like this?" Spike back again.
Startled by the statement from Spike's mouth, the two men gave him a quick look.
"Hold on, Spike. Don't tell me you don't know what your credit point does?" Vahn who early on wore a happy face turned into an astonished face.
"Of course I understand. The junk you're gonna eat in this place is bought with a point credit, right?"
he two people next to Spike facepalming. Silver said, "Spike, your point credit, is worth far more than buying a food."
"You're such an interesting person. But wait, does that mean that when you fight the Gorlocks, you don't use your own credit point?" Vahn is starting to wonder.
"No…"
"Spike, I know that sometimes a strange text appears in your eyes. Now open it up, I'll show you something interesting over there. Press your temples now."
"Temples? Alright"
A post suddenly appeared in front of Spike. Like a piece of information in a video game, there is a lot of data about Spike.
[ Name : Spike Bretman ]
[ Rank : 245 ]
[ Power Type : Enhancer ]
[ Available Skills : Null ]
"Hey… I've read these texts before. I read it when Hudson put me in a cell of his own. What is the meaning of this? " Said, Spike.
"We can't see what you're looking at right now, spike. But I would expect the names, rank, power types, and skills as well. If I'm right, then your skill is still null right?" Answered Silver
"Yes ... My skill is still null. Does that mean I can't fight?"
"No, it's not like you can't fight. If you want to get into fights with the people here in that condition. You're gonna lose now. You can't rely on a weapon with your right arm. You need a skill…"
"No way! I should have the skills! I had this when I was fighting the previous Gorlocks!"
On the far right corner of the screen in her eyes, she had this symbol that looked like a shopping cart. Spike immediately pressed it, wondering what happened next.
[ Strike of Heracles ]
[ When enemies get hit by this skill, they get stunned for four seconds and can’t do anything. It can only be used four times in one fight ]
[ Price : 20.000 Point Credit ]
[ Next Skill will available when Prisoners Ranking up ]
Spike gets pissed off, he should be able to buy the skills if he doesn't use his credit point to pay for that shit. He could really use a credit point right now.
"What's wrong, Spike? Is something wrong?" Said silver noticing something suspicious in Spike's movements.
"I'm sure he didn't have the money to buy his first skills. He used the money to buy the food, right? All I know is that all prisoners here need 20,000 points credit to be able to buy their first skills. Isn't that right, spike?"
He feels bad when he has to receive help from two people he barely knows. He feels that he may not be worthy to be helped.
[ 15.000 point Credits have been received from Prisoners #387 ]
"Hold on, I got a shitload of money. Silver, did you give me this money? Since when have I been asking for your help!"
"My name is Silver Boon, I can survive in this prison because I have never fought one prisoner. In fact, I gave them the credit they needed so I could refuse to fight them. And yet I'm sick of this place. I want to get out quickly. I've seen something in you, spike. I'm sure you'll bring change to this place. I give you some of my credits so you can grow. Promise me that someday you will be able to pay my credits back."
Spike's looking hard at silver. He still didn't really trust silver, but he sensed he could call silver's figure a friend in this infernal prison.
"Thank you, Silver. I promise to return the point credit to you later”
[ Strike of Heracles has been Achieved. Current Point Credit is 0 ]
From the sound of the speakers, there was a loud sound there right now. The screens around them have all changed too now.
"Ah! That voice, the announcement of the upcoming duel! I really wonder who will fight!"
[ A Duel will start 3 days from now. First Fighter is Spike Bretman, Prisoners #404]
Everyone's clapping, looking at Spike right now. Someone that was mentioned by name could only be stunned and surprised to hear the announcement immediately.
[ ... against Vahn the Night, Prisoners # 290 ]
Vahn's friendly smile turned into a deadly smile on Spike now.
"Ahh!... I didn't expect to be up against someone I barely knew. I'm sorry, Spike, but it looks like we're done here. I'll wait for the fight with you in three days from now See you…."
Vahn left, while Spike himself was still there full of panic and fear.
Spike, sense a strange aura emanating from that man…
one day has passed.After seeing the fight in the arena yesterday, Spike thoughtfully about how he could survive in this place with only his Iron Fist. All day he thought about all the tactics for fighting.The thing was, Spike had yet to learn who the real Vahn was. He didn't know what strength that person had. He couldn't predict and prepare for his fight with that person later.Previously, Spike had asked Silver. And just as it seems, Silver is just as clueless as Spike.Something was off about Vahn. He had never seen the man before in this prison. He came as if he had come especially today to greet him in the battle arena.Hmm... Why am I thinking too hard? I can always win whatever battle I face with ease...Spike sat silently in his own cell. Time has yet to show for a break. In his indecision, he was really bored in his solitude.***A few hours later, Spike who accidentally fell asleep wakes up hearing sirens in his own cell.The flickering and illuminating light in his room d
Goowasp turns out to have a size that doesn't match Spike's estimates. It is about the size of a watermelon. It's just that the flapping of the wings behind it looks weird. Instead of moving from top to bottom, but sideways from left to right.His skin was wrinkled, and with baggy eyes reminded him of elder people.His teeth were shiny silver fangs like sharp thorns. However, that's the only factor that makes him look dangerous. The rest, not at all. Spike is very confident that the monster is very easy for him to beat.“Hudson... You really underestimated me. You think I'd have a hard time-fighting flies like this?”“Goo…” The creature whispered again softly.Spike ran, getting ready to jump and pummel the monster any second."Sorry friend. I'm sure that you hate your own existence. But don't worry, I will end your suffering!”Spike punched the monster with his steel arm. Completely like a watermelon, the monster's body was crushed from the inside out. His own blood was blue with no
1 day has passed. Leading up to his fight with Vahn, Spike was given no time to get out of the cell he was in. All day he trains to be able to increase his stamina as well as strength he has.In the previous battle, he only got 3000 Credit Points along with one strange item called the Amulet of Hardness. As it's almost time for the fight, Spike checks what the Amulet's function really is.[ Amulet of Hardness ][ Rarity Type: Common ][ Power: Give users a slight amount of strength. Can be accumulated with other Gears ]As Spike read the lines before his eyes, he found this gear completely useless. He didn't know how much strength he would get from the gear.Instead of getting nothing, Spike also chose to wear it now heading into the arena.[ Prisoners #404 will be commencing Spartan Protocol. Please wait ]The robotic voice resounded in the cell of his room. The voice that had signaled his fight with Vahn would come back soon.Spike looked back at his iron arms, he wished that the fi
Spike was terrified that Vahn would suddenly attack him in a vital spot. He was certain that his current state was one of the abilities that belonged to Vahn. [ All Skills were active. Strike of Heracles and Hardened Walls were available to use ] Spike remembers it, he got the Hardened Walls skill when fighting the Gorlocks. Under these circumstances, a skill like that would definitely be very useful for him to use. “Hardened Walls!” Spike shouted activating his skill. “What skills are those? I thought you only had one skill?” Vahn's response heard the scream from Spike just now. "A gambler never shows his trump card!" Even though Spike still couldn't see anything right now, he was confident that he would be able to survive if he activated the skill. Vahn not knowing what the skill was, just immediately tried to attack Spike in his blind spot. “The Butterfly Knife is not a weak weapon. You will feel the pain right now!” From behind, Vahn tried to stab Spike towards his solar p
The siren sounded loud and the intensity of the beat was so fast that Spike was quite scared and panicking now. Just hearing the tone was as if something bad was happening right now.With haste and rushed steps, he dashed towards the gate where he was before. That man was pounding on the gate hoping someone would get him out of this arena soon."Hey! Quickly get us out of here!”“It's useless...” Vahn replied while still in his bad state.“Everyone must be trying to save themselves right now. The heartless robot guards are no exception.”Spike slammed into the metal gate that was protected by several layers of metal and iron. It was useless, his arm still wasn't strong enough to cut through it all right now. "I told you, it's useless. We can only wait here until everything is over…”Giving up on the situation, Spike leaned against the gate hopeless for now.His gaze was directed upwards, making him realize something.“Wait, is it normal for no one to watch when a lower-ranked prisoner
Long Time Ago“...that's the plan. You already memorized it right?" Said the tall man to the two small children in front of him.They have the appearance of twins, and can not be distinguished from the eyes alone."Yes Sir!" Reply the two children answered by nodding and so nervous. They were holding the teddy bears in their hands right now tightly. Behind it is a trigger that can be pressed for something“From now on, if anything happens don't come back to me. I'm not going to look for you. Go!"The man with a tall body and wearing a fedora hat left the presence of the two twins now. Mixed in with the crowd that was around the bustling place right now.“Vahn… this is a very important task. We can't mess it up!” Said the boy to his twin brother. Both of them could not hide their nervousness and fearful expressions.“Vahn! You must believe in yourself! You can definitely do it!” The twin brother of the boy held his shoulder hard while screaming. He had to steel his brother's mind now.
"That's the only memory I have so far. I realized that I might have done something bad in the past. However, my greatest regret is not being able to save my older brother on my own...“ Vahn said finishing his story.“Wow... that's pretty blue. Do you hope to meet him in the future?""I don't know, I don't even know what to say to him the next time I see him. I'm sure the figure he saw when he saw me now is completely different from before."Spike stood up, he was quite amused by the story Vahn had given him. Because of that, it's enough to release the fatigue of doing nothing in this arena.As he looked back at Vahn, he realized that the man's body had almost recovered to its previous state of health."Hey, wait. Isn't your body recovered now? All the bones inside your organs are nowhere to be seen! The flesh and skin have covered them!"“Yeah... I can feel it too. As it turns out, my skill really works."Suddenly, the gate that was behind Spike opened now. But the siren still didn't
Hiding behind a large box, Spike saw a man who strangely had bull-like horns on his head face to face with the robot guards.Behind that man, there were two people who also had strange physical appearances. One has a tail with fire on the end and the other has scaly skin like a reptile."Who are they?" Spike asked in a whisper to Silver as well as to Vahn.“Barro, Rhond and also Visco. They are members of the gang The Chain. They are always seen together in every situation. But what's weird now is, where are the other members of The Chain?” said Silver confused.“Maybe they're splitting up to find a place to get out. I don't know them, but what I know is that Barro has strong ambitions to become the leader of The Chain."Barro, the head of the bull, clenched his hand towards the guard as if challenging him to a duel immediately.“Let us through! Or I will use your iron as my new weapon!” Barro said.[Prisoners #342 has been violating the rules. Lethal system allowed ]“You only mentio
