The Least Common Denominator LXXXVIII.III Boyle's Law
With a grin, I walked forward amidst the sea of groaning metal and anxious opponents. It would be fun to see just how much I've improved over the years."Remember the Furnace rebellion years back?" I taunted, making sure that I show my grin to the poor shmucks in front of me. "That was me. I led that shit to freedom.""Wha-"The idiot that uttered his mouth was my first target. Before he even managed to complete a word, I was already in front of him with the Sange and Yasha poised to bisect him in half. With a flick of my arms, even runed armor was sheared like paper against my own creations, the Decimal's upper half falling in front of me with an unceremonious thud."See?" I snickered, pointing the Sange towards the rest of the tin cans. "I don't need flames to beat you all. Besides, I wasn't a Num back then and I stil
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXXIII: Kelvin
Fate was such a cruel mistress. While it might have been merciful in some aspects of her life, Fate had also taken much in terms of her own safety and relative sense of self. Kelvin always believed that her lot in life was set in stone; that if the Lady Flame wasn't able to break the chains of her fate, then so would she with her infinitely weaker power and standing. It was already a miracle that Fate deemed it proper that she be bestowed with the title of Prime at such a young age, let alone be this powerful in the first place despite not truly working for it as much as what she saw in others. In hindsight, it only reinforced her belief that it was simply impossible for those not in Fate's favor to succeed in life. Why else would their hard work be pointless while others were being born destined for greatness?"Ke- Miss Probability?"Then again, perhaps it was also Fate that
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXXIV: Lace VI
This was an unmitigated disaster.Lace knew that the plan to attack the palace was going to happen. It was one of the most important parts of their strategy, after all. Unfortunately, the plan didn't entail a single thing on what to do when the palace currently looked like it was under siege."What's the plan?"The emotive one of the twins wracked her head as Phillipe casually chimed in with his sarcasm again. The entire night had passed with them electing to wait the situation out and going on from there. Her twin thankfully already had a few plans drafted up, but it all depended on how well the siege progressed. If it was over in a single night with their Leader contacting them after the fact, then they'd spin the story that was expected of them and sow even more discord into the populace. Unfortunately, the siege didn't stop. No.&nbs
The Least Common Denominator Interlude XXXV: Descartes II
Some say that taking revenge was bittersweet. Fortunately for Descartes, she found it rather tasteful enough for her to like it. In fact, she had an inkling that she was liking it too much to the point that she might not even be acting in her best behavior anymore. Compounded with the fact that she was with the one person in their group that seemed to love encouraging her bad behaviors, the Vaion maid felt like she was crossing a line that she shouldn't even be near to in the first place."I have to say, Anne, you sure know your stuff~"The maid simply nodded even as she moved to snuff out more lives in service to her Queen. Her weapons might not be what she truly wanted to wield, but their effectiveness still proved to be deadly as her sickles tore through flesh and armor alike in a satisfactory manner.With a duck and a weave, Descartes held her
The Least Common Denominator LXXXIX.I Combustion
Combinations and synergy were something I obsessed with whenever I saw a concept or mechanic that enabled such things. Whether it was on my studies or games, it helped me remember a lot of shit in such a short amount of time that most of my classmates thought I had an eidetic memory. Along with familiarization tactics, and it enabled my insanity of not studying for important exams somewhat possible. It had its limits, of course, but I didn't really care beyond the fact that it helped me coast through med school like a maniac, much to the chagrin of my friends and professors. Then again, why am I even thinking about this shit in the first place?"So you return with even less of your current group? Such arrogance!"Oh, right... I was fighting someone that can control wind.I knew that this was inevitable so long as we continued going up, but it still
The Least Common Denominator LXXXIX.II Combustion
I tried my best to look serious as I leveled my sword against our opponents. With a glower, my right hand twirled before settling in a one-handed stance. The Firebrand stood between me and certain death, my Essence bristling from deep within my chest. My chest... My chest....Fuck! I can't stop thinking about it!"Lady, perhaps you would like to cover yourself up before we engage?" I heard Playfair speak like a pretentious gentleman. "We shall gracefully-""Shut up," I glowered out of embarrassment. "I can fight like this. I don't care."It was a lie. I very much did care, lest I would've used my usual two-handed grip for this. But a part of me wanted to fight like this for the sole advantage of being a distracting target. We needed every advantage we can get against two Primes. And if sacrificing my dignity would help
The Least Common Denominator LXXXIX.III Combustion
I blinked at the annoying blond in front of me as I flexed my fingers. If I wanted to fight like a maniac, I'm gonna have to be quick on the draw. Our battlefield was partitioned into a neat circle, thankfully. With Isaac taking care of the potential stragglers, I only have to worry about the two idiots in front of me....It was actually kind of daunting, now that I thought about it."Surely you jest," Playfair chuckled. "I refuse to strike an unarmed woman!"I felt my right eye twitch, "And I'm telling you that I'm ready, you ugly moron."I scoffed as the annoying blowhard froze mid-laughter. Like earlier, insulting or stopping his ability to grandstand hit a nerve. He spun his staff-fan around with his right hand, stopping in a combat stance as he showed me a cold smile."It is unbecoming
The Least Common Denominator LXXXIX.IV Combustion
Shooting forward, Playfair quickly resumed his attacks as his wind blades buffeted my approach. The Sange and Yasha did their job in keeping me safe, but I knew their usefulness will end as soon as I achieved my win condition. I just had to get close."Give up!"I almost scoffed at the half-hearted call-out as I managed to get close. Playfair actually looked amazed by the fact as I then delivered a slash aimed straight at his head. It didn't connect, thanks to his quick reflexes and sturdy staff-fan, but at least it stopped him from letting out more of those pesky wind blades.With a push, I flew back and landed on my feet as he readied his weapon. A grim smile colored his face, his eyes now firmly leveled with mine as my nakedness no longer affected him. That, or maybe he just got used to seeing me naked now."It would
