[Christine's POV]
-BOOM!!!
-Swish!!
-Slash!!
-Clank!!
-Clank!!
-Swish!!!
-BOOM!!!
-BOOOM!!!
I look at the fight between the two little monsters in front of me.
"Heh, you are so slow. Is that all you are capable of?" smirked that blonde girl, whose eyes were beautiful enough to make even girls fall in love with them. However, her opponent didn't seem to give two sh*t about them as she continued doing her best to poke them using her white sword.
"Stop ignoring me, you robot!!" shouted Lucy again as she attacked the black-haired, blue-eyed girl, Elizabeth Williamson, without holding back.
It was a few hours ago that I was tasked by Zero, my sister's saviour and partner in the Bryxton Massacre, to watch over the matches between these two.
-Shwish!!!
Elizabeth dashed towards Lucy, who was already moving for an attack and then she parried the attack with perfect skill and prepared for a counterattack
-Clank!!!
But Lucy had already recovered from that and blocked Elizabeth's attack as she held against her.
Lucy was irked when she heard about Zero knowing another girl. What irked her out was the fact that the other girl in question was someone who was similar in age to her and equal or perhaps even better in both beauty and skills.
"How did you meet him?" Elizabeth finally spoke as she looked at Lucy, trying her best to get an attack through.
"He is going to save me… without taking anything from me… How do you think it is possible when my fate is sealed in heaven to die in the future? He just came… and touched my hair, speaking, 'Nice to meet you, I guess. Here is my number. If you ever need me for anything, you can reach me here. See ya,'... and my fate itself changed," Lucy spoke with her eyes focused on Elizabeth as she asked back,
"What about you… how did you meet him?"
"He saved my life too… he said that he wanted something from me in return but… just like you, I too know that he never willed to take anything from me," Spoke Elizabeth as she pushed Lucy back and started chanting her attack.
Hearing their words, I narrowed my eyes at them before I began questioning things a little.
'He said the same things as he did to Elizabeth but… he still hasn't asked anything from us? If it is the same as them… if it is like that… does that mean that he would never take any help from us as well?' I thought as I recalled all he did for both Eliza and I.
"Do you love him?" Lucy asked again as she increased her pace towards her, while also chanting her own magic.
"I don't know… Reaper was my idol after what happened in Bryxton… how he massacred the mafia… I became his… fan. As for my current feelings.. I don't think it's love but more of an idolization," Elizabeth said as she attacked Lucy with a strange sword attack that filled water all around us.
There were waves and waves that attacked Lucy from all directions, but Lucy's body started glowing before she skilfully dodged all the wave attacks and moved towards Elizabeth.
I saw her moving towards Elizabeth at an insane speed, but Elizabeth's eyes started glowing silver and blue before she too matched Lucy's speed and the fight grew intense.
"What about you? Do you love him?" I heard the voice of Elizabeth echoing among the slashes and water attacks.
"I feel safe around him. My brother loves me too and I know that but he is too over protective about everything… but with Reaper… I feel safer… freer, than I had been in my entire life… Of course I am going to fall in love with him… for he is the first person I had seen as someone capable of having me," Lucy spoke without any hesitation and I heard the attacks getting fiercer with every passing second.
"Aren't you going to stop them?" I heard the voice of my sister, Eliza, standing beside me as she observed them. Then rather than waiting for my answer she stood up as her eyes turned vermillion as did the colour of her hair, which was white before, now started burning a little and changed to red from the endings.
"You guys… don't you feel embarrassed about those words?" She spoke in a bit of a loud voice as she distanced herself to get in a proper jumping position.
"Eliza… not you too…" I spoke out loud, a bit dumbfounded before I saw…
-Swish!!
-Swish!! -Clank!! -Clank!! Eliza jumped in the fray and attacked both of them at once, increasing the intensity of the fight for the next few moments before all three of them settled down and stood at a three point distance from each other.
"We are here to train and become strong enough to help him out in the future. If you have time to fight and quarrel for your stupid love talk, then you can do that later after you have helped him but now… we need to train," Eliza spoke as she looked at the other two.
I saw all three of them analysing each other with a serious expression before Lucy turned off her golden aura and returned to normal as she spoke,"well… I guess you are right."
Elizabeth too turned normal and so did Eliza as they both observed each other.
"You too, huh? That's already three… hmmm what about you?" spoke Elizabeth as she turned at me and the others looked at me as well.
'How did it come to me?' I thought before I pondered a little before speaking,"no. I don't think I have any romantic feelings towards him… just that I am fascinated by his weird and mysterious life and behaviour. The fact that you can never imagine what he will do next… doesn't it fascinate you?"
"My sister is a fanatic lover of people who are shrouded in mystery and secrets. Don't mind her," spoke Eliza as she looked at me before turning at Elizabeth as she spoke,"I don't think it's just us though… with how he is, he probably has already had at least 5 girls fall for him."
Lucy looked at me with a dumbfounded gaze as her eyes widened in realisation before Elizabeth spoke,"What's even more funny is that each of these girls… is probably a monster of her own."
And all three of them sighed.
I chuckled at them before clapping at them as I spoke,"Okay, that's enough chit chat for now. I have just got the files on your training, so let's get started, shall we?"
