The next day
On a bright morning, a gentle breeze swept the green leaves with the sound of birds chirping in the air. Adrian was getting ready, wearing a white shirt, a tie, and polished leather shoes, as if preparing for an important outing. Seeing Adrian, Reys'a wondered where he was going.
"Hey Adrian, where are you going?" Reys'a said as he walked towards him. "How do I look? I want to go out to meet with the Hyken family for a while and I might be back a little late so if you want anything just let me know or just invite Mitsuya or Saei to go buy something." while adjusting his tie.
"The Hyken family?" Reys'a raised an eyebrow. Adrian just smiled at Reys'a's words. "Yeah, This may be one of the steps to achieve our goal and I heard that they also have problems with the world government and want to get out of sitting under them.
With this opportunity I will negotiate to get some benefits and information because they are among the families that have long ruled under the leadership of the world government. Perhaps, this will allow them to work with us once" which was undoubtedly Reys'a's statement.
"I'll tell you when I get back, okay?" Said Adrian.
Mitsuya also came closer from behind. "Yes, we have long wanted the Hyken family to cooperate with us, but brother, Saei told me that lately there have been more and more people looking at him when he goes out.
I'm afraid it's an enemy who wants to spy on him, but luckily Saei is good at escaping from them. So brother, be careful out there and don't forget our main goal." said Mitsuya who was worried. "Yes, relax, I still remember and I didn't come out just because. I'm also aware of that, so with this opportunity, I'll find out who they are." replied Adrian. He then left his room and went straight to the front door to go out. "Well, before I forget, Mitsuya," Adrian called Mitsuya.
"Yes, why?" said Mitsuya who was behind when he heard the call. "Later tell Zu Sheng when the thing is ready, give it to Reys'a, that's it, I'm leaving." Adrian then stepped out of the house without looking back.
Reys'a who heard the statement was also surprised by Adrian's meaning. 'Huh? What thing does Adrian want to give to me?' Reys'a curious. After hearing Adrian's statement, Mitsuya also went to approach Reys'a. "Reys'a, I think Zu Sheng has finished it, let's go see it." said Mitsuya inviting Reys'a. "What do you mean? What is that thing?" Reys'a wondered.
"You'll know what that thing is in a moment." they then went downstairs to find Zu Sheng and wanted to know what the thing Adrian was talking about? Zu Sheng was also at his desk doing what he always did.
"Zu Sheng, just now the eldest brother said there was something you wanted to give to Reys'a, what was that thing?" said Mitsuya. Zu Sheng with a sarcastic face smiled at Reys'a. "Here it is," while showing it. "I want to give you a weapon that I made myself. Before, elder brother asked me to make a flexible weapon so I made it and yesterday he said to give it to Reys'a."
Zu Sheng gave Reys'a the sword handle without the blade. "Huh? How am I supposed to use it if there is no blade?" said Reys'a who was wondering how to use it. Zu Sheng extended his hand to Reys'a. "Here, let me use it, first."
Zu Sheng held the handle and immediately a long sword blade came out of the handle. "Woah, how did you do it?" Reys'a's eyes widened as he watched the blade extend, his grip tightening in excitement.
"That's not all" he moved his thumb holding the handle down and automatically the long sword blade turned small like a knife, he also moved his thumb up a little and the sword blade became long but not too long and not too short. "How did you do it?" Reys'a was stunned.
"This handle is equipped with technology where just by touching it and using a fingerprint, you can activate it and you only need to play with your thumb down or up to adjust the length you want." He explained it to Reys'a. "Wow, this sword is really flexible, I can also take it anywhere with its blade that can be stored and becomes small, it is also light to carry. Reys'a said excitedly with the sword.
"Well, that's right, this sword can't be used by just anyone, only certain people and I named it Zairin's Sword. This sword uses a nanotech blade that allows it to change length.
Even so, this sword is still in progress and there are more things I want to prepare. But for now, you can use it first and see how it goes and this may have somes drawbacks." said Zu Sheng. "I'm also making new equipment, but I'll talk about that later when everyone is there."
Reys'a's eyes widened, fascinated by the name of the sword. "Zairin's Sword, interesting."
"Then let's use it, you fight me using the sword and just think of it as if we were practicing." Mitsuya said offering it. "Yes, that's good, we can also see how well this sword works in a real fight." Zu Sheng also agreed. Reys'a who saw the sword, held it tightly. "Okay, come on." Reys'a also wanted to try the new sword, making him more enthusiastic.
"Wait a minute, before I forget, hold the handle tightly, I want to put it into the system so you can activate it too." Reys'a did as Zu Sheng told him. He then opened his phone and activated it which was already in his phone system. "Now, you can use it, I have received your fingerprint in the system. With this I can see where I can improve it." Zu Sheng said. "Yeah, that's great"
The handle that Reys'a was holding now srruusshh.... the blade of the long sword came out of the handle. "If you like, let's practice outside." They went out to the empty place behind the house where they always practiced. "Just attack with all your strength Reys'a, no need to hesitate" said Mitsuya. "Okay if that's what you want" Reys'a was getting more and more excited to use it.
Reys'a dashed towards Mitsuya. Gripping the sword handle tightly. In an instant, the blade extended with sharp metallic hiss. Reys'a swung his sword at Mitsuya. He quickly dodged, leaping behind him. Before Reys'a could react, Mitsuya already struck with a swift kick, sending him to the ground.
"Reys'a, that's all you can do?" Mitsuya mocked Reys'a. Reys'a with a dissatisfied face, got up again and held his sword even stronger. Mitsuya who saw him also kept taking out the hammer that suddenly appeared.
Reys'a ran towards Mitsuya and swung his sword very hard towards his chest. Mitsuya then quickly destroyed the attack with his Hammer. Without having time to do anything, he continued to take out his nail that suddenly appeared from his hand.
He quickly continued to stab it towards Reys'a sleeve. In the blink of an eye, Reys'a's hand could not move.
"Huh? My hand was nailed? How is that possible? Without a surface?" Reys'a was surprised by his power. "haha, anything and anywhere I can nail it even without a surface and that's not all—"
Mitsuya immediately swung his hammer and the small nail on Reys'a's sleeve became large and pulled down. Reys'a fell down again and couldn't get up because it was nailed to the ground.
"Tchh..." Reys'a was furious and continued to pull his shirt hard and his sleeve was torn because of Reys'a's pull to get rid of the nail.
"Aaahh… My shirt, that useless Reys'a tore my shirt." Said Zu Sheng from the side who saw it. Reys'a was too focused and ignored him. He immediately jumped towards Mitsuya while swinging his sword, and he managed to stop him with his hammer.
Reys'a shortened the blade of his sword into a knife, and continued to target Mitsuya's stomach. Mitsuya was shocked when his blade suddenly changed and quickly dodged— but before he could finish dodging, Reys'a continued to kicking him with a roundhouse kick to his heel until he fell. Reys'a extended his sword again and aimed it at Mitsuya.
"Ouch, not bad." Mitsuya praised Reys'a. Mitsuya immediately swing the hammer and nailed his leg. Then, Mitsuya hit hard Reys'a's calf. "Ahh, that hurts." Reys'a pulled the nail that was in his leg very hard. "Hiyaaaaahhh... it's hard" said Reys'a. "Yes, once I nailed it, it's really hard to remove it except using my stick"
Reys'a also once again took off one of his shoes to be able to move again. He returned several blows and as usual all of them were parried by Mitsuya. He threw his nail at Reys'a to nail him again but this time Reys'a deflected it with his sword.
Reys'a threw his sword at Mitsuya. "huh?" He was surprised why Reys'a threw it. The sword that had a blade went right towards him, before he could dodge it, the blade of the sword went straight in back and at the same time Reys'a was in front of Mitsuya and made him surprised by his presence, because he was too focused on the sword hitting him.
Reys'a immediately punched and Mitsuya also wanted to hit him with the hammer but Reys'a first hit Mitsuya's hand that was holding the hammer and the hammer fell. Reys'a then punched his stomach making him fall to his knees and took his sword back. "I win" said Reys'a while drawing his sword at him.
"Not yet," said Mitsuya. He nailed the sky and made it a place to hold. He jumped and threw 4 nails towards Reys'a and the last one Mitsuya took out the hammer from thin air, and hit it with full strength, so that Reys'a was unable to deflect the last nail and it stuck in Reys'a's thigh. Without hesitation, he immediately hit Reys'a's sword and dropped. Mitsuya nailed Reys'a's left arm and right shirt so that he could not move with his feet neither his hands on the nails.
But Reys'a insisted on tearing the shirt and pants that Mitsuya nailed. "Okay, okay, enough, my clothes are ruined, don't tear them again" Zu Sheng ran towards Reys'a and wanted to stop him from doing so. Reys'a immediately stopped. "Aahhh I'm almost ready to win, it's okay if I lose this time, but next time I will definitely win." said Reys'a with regret at his defeat.
"Hahaha, I didn't know you wanted to win so much that you wanted to tear your shirt and pants. Then what are you going to wear? Naked? haha you're funny, Reys'a." His behavior made Mitsuya laugh.
"But you're not bad and I didn't think you would do that, throw your weapon to attract attention, clever ideas" said Mitsuya. "Aahh, my shirt" Zu Sheng is still upset about his shirt being torn to pieces because of Reys'a.
Mitsuya then pulled back the nails on Reys'a's legs and body, allowing him to move again. "It's okay, tomorrow we'll buy something else." said Mitsuya "Tomorrow we'll go to Zayrian City and we'll buy some clothes for Reys'a too."
"Yeah, fine then." Zu Sheng didn't get too angry anymore, because of his clothes. "Let's go inside to eat, Caelus must be waiting inside."
They also went into the house to eat breakfast. "But looking back you are more plump than when you came the other day." said Mitsuya while looking up and down at Reys'a. "Ouh, is that so?" replied Reys'a
"Yes, that's right. I also saw you gaining weight from the other day" said Zu Sheng as well. Reys'a smiled because he knew his weight was increasing and he didn't look so thin.
"But, you always eat messy!" Mitsuya said. "Hehe... sorry I always eating like that." replied Reys'a while scratching his head "Caelus, where is Saei and Valsar?"
"Earlier, Saei and Valsar went out while you were outside earlier, I don't know where they went, Valsar said he just wanted to go out for a while with Saei" said Caelus. "Well it's that so then it's okay." replied Mitsuya.
Meanwhile in another place. Saei and Valsar were in another place doing something??
What did they do? and where did they go??
