7'th fragment

[shred_the_sky]

I and Sho have cut open the path to the battlefield. The duel has ended as the sun approached the horizon, and it was my blade that dealt the final strike. Miss Windia can serve as a witness. She is a bride of neither of us, but she ended up overlooking the process by accident

Dude, what? You saying your pansy ass beat Sho?

Huh, maybe you're not just some pansy ass.

Don't know what the hell you mean by everything else though.

[shred_the_sky]

Sho is a good fighter, but a poor swordsman. It'll take more than brute force and a couple explosions to take me down.

They want me to get stronger. I don't feel any stronger. I feel like I was weak before, and only moved closer to the way I should be.

[justonehero]

Well well. Now I'm excited.

Feel like pressing your luck? Get another fight out of the way? Sounds like you don't especially feel like staying weak, and I've been itching for a challenge. Win win.

[shred_the_sky]

Tomorrow. I need to repair my uniform before I accept another duel. I don't want to pay for another one.

[hypotheticalend]

You defeated Sho? Congratulations, sir~

And that is certainly philosophical. Quite meaningful.

[shred_the_sky]

Thank you, but don't make a deal out of it. The first step is just that. A step.

Really now.

[hypotheticalend]

Very well, if you choose to see it that way. Still, a step well done.

Have you considered Religious or Motivational texts? You have the vague wording and dramatization down quite solid, sir.

[shred_the_sky]

I and religion are not on speaking terms. We prefer to remain as casual acquaintances who sometimes run into each other in the cafeteria.

[air_guitar_moar]

You are... amazing. We should... shake hands sometime, or something.

[shred_the_sky]

...it's not such a big deal. Students fight every day.

[air_guitar_moar]

Oh, I know. I'm Klavier Gavin. My door was stolen, you might remember. I know about fighting. I know about fighting Herr Minamimoto. He's no pushover.

You must be something to take him down.

[shred_the_sky]

Yes, I remember that story...

He's strong, I'll give him that. But he's not vicious or creative enough.

[heirofanri]

...Will he be alright?

[shred_the_sky]

It would be pathetic if he wouldn't recover from a couple cuts and bruises, don't you think?

[derniere_dragon]

Mr Ether! Why did you do that!? Are you okay? Is he okay? What happened!?

[shred_the_sky]

He wanted to fight. I felt like exercise. We went at each other. He ruined my uniform. I crushed his badge and disarmed him. I won and he lost.

Isn't that obvious?

[derniere_dragon]

B-but fighting! Just like that, Mr Ether! How can you be so calm about it!?

[shred_the_sky]

Why not? People fight all the time.
