Chapter 13: Arthur Corvin
'What?'
'Huh?'
"Excuse me?"
Arthur spoke once again after reading my name tag and continued, "Did you forget? You're the girl who beat up that upperclassman, 'Riku Kisaragi,' by using your skill. What was it..." Arthur paused for a moment, thinking, then responded, "It was called 'Superior Blade,' right?..."
'What the fuck is he talking about?'
'No way, right?'
I looked around the cave for a second, noticing a puddle next to me. I scanned my reflection on the puddle without Arthur noticing.
[This character does not exist in this story]
'Made me freak out for no reason...'
'Then what the fuck is he talking about?'
Arthur tried reading my expression as I attempted to maintain a nice, calm, and cold appearance, but mentally I was banging my head against a wall. Arthur sighed, "I guess you don't like sharing about your skill. Well, that's fine. Anyway, can you teach me how to use a sword?"
'What?...'
"No."
Arthur looked at me for a moment, then asked, "Then how about a duel? Or a contest?"
'Seriously, what the fuck is happening right now-'
"No thanks..."
Arthur sighed, "How about--"
I cut him off, "No."
I checked the time limit as Arthur gave up and began messing around with his command system.
[Time limit: 2 hours]
[Enemies Remaining: 13,932]
[Cadets Remaining: 10,700]
'Oh, great we're only halfway through the second wave.'
Arthur paused and quickly stood up after hearing something shuffle among the bushes nearby as he spoke to me, "Yoon Harin, wait here..."
A small white creature appeared out of the bush, which had a row of sharp, deep crimson teeth and around its mouth, it had strange sigils. Its eyes were stitched closed, it had a triangular-shaped head with a hole through its forehead, and its white body was covered in deep crimson fabric, as well as many small sharp red horns sticking out of its head like a crown.
Barely visible was its bright red claws were barely sticking out under of its clothing.
As it slowly approached, I quickly scanned the creature and was glad to see the normal character sheet screen for the calamity.
[Name: Velvet Beast] (X25)
[Job: False Calamity]
[Rank: Common]
[Skills: [Bloody Slash] [Life-Stealing Bite] [Blood Bullet] [Blood Search]
[Calamity Analysis: These calamities always hunt in packs, with the pack led by a Royal Velvet Beast. They devour any creature with blood, draining its life source with every bite. They tend to track anything with blood using 'Blood Search' and pretend to be only one calamity to lure their prey over while the others in the pack hide. To defeat this calamity, destroy their horns, which are actually pockets filled with blood; once popped, they burst out blood upon destruction.]

'25?!?! There's 25 of them??'
I watched as Arthur Corvin equipped his sword but right before he was about to attack I quickly got up and threw a rock at the calamity's head, right at its pockets full of blood, bursting it.
*Squelch!* *Pop!* *Splrrshhh*
The calamity instantly collapsed dead.
Arthur paused for a moment, then he noticed more Velvet Beasts slowly appearing, having noticed their fallen ally. They seemed to be greatly angered, making various sounds at us.
*Tch-tch-tch-TCH*
"SKREEEEEEE! KREEE!"
*Chkk-chkk-chkk*
Suddenly a big calamity slowly emerged from the tree, is body shape and color being similar to the Velvet Beasts but it was cloaked with a various red colored fabric and fur shaped as a cloak, it had a massive triangular head, it had 4 eyes that were all stitched up in the same way as the other Velvet Beasts, its mouth was stitched making it have a permeant have a sad expression, its deep colored massive red fangs were bared, its white legs floated off the ground as it approached us and it stuck out its bright its neon red claws from out of its cloak.
Protruding from its head were 5 great dark crimson demonic horns and on its forehead was a deep hole with a dark red gem slowly glowing and fading again and again as it got closer.. as it moved closed I rapidly scanned it knowing it was most likely the Royal Velvet Beast.

[You do not have the required level to see more information]
I readied my blade readying myself for a battle but suddenly, Arthur Corvin quickly advanced ahead killing the calamities with his blade, smashing downwards at the Velvet Beasts rapidly killing a hoard of them before I even had a chance to move.
The remaining Velvet beasts roared out, as they attacked fangs bared and claws out to attack
"KAEEEEE!"
Arthur quickly pierced through their bodies with his blade, Sangis destroying their pockets of blood as they popped and exploded out like a symphony of sounds.
*Sqisssh!- *Pop!* *Pop!* *Pop!* *Boom!* Splrrshhh*
The ground was covered in blood as I watched in amazement as Arthur danced with his sword, slaughtering the Velvet Beasts like they were nothing.

'I guess he was the protagonist for a reason...'
He quickly advanced to the Royal Velvet Beast as it fired multiple spears of blood at him.
He almost instantly parried with his blade and slammed it downwards into the beast's left arm, cutting it in an instant.
"SKEREEEEEEEEEE!"
The beast roared out and slammed its other claw into Arthur, yet he easily blocked the attack and cut off its other arm in quick succession.
"SEKEEKEEEEEEEEEE!"
The beast roared once again in pain, creating multiple tendrils of blood that it attacked with in a last-ditch effort, but the battle was over.
'It's already over?...'
Arthur had pierced through the beast's head and decapitated it while speaking to himself,
"Too slow, you're already dead, fucking bloodsucker."
