Ok, before starting this fic I'll tell you some things.
1. I picked EXeLD and I got Lynn's ending on my first playthrough, so this fic will follow this route.
2. I have the Noble "Inster here the weapon you crafted" as the strongest weapon in Story Wise, so I'll use it.
3. I defeated Golden Rampage Rabbit and then the extra bosses
4. I have EXeLD as a male, because of his voice actor.
It's been two months since he defeated one of the greatest menace that the world ever faced: a summoner as strong as cruel named Guren. With his powerful magic, he possessed the demom Goura in order to rule and destroy the entire world and many years before the same Guren , still using Goura, managed to kill the first Edge Fencer: Graham Colthearts. But his son, Edgar Colthearts managed to build a weapon strong enough to damage Goura's body, then, thanks to a piece of Goura's soul, the young fencer combined his power with a sacred jewel, the Red Daemon Gem, powering up an armor which was already capable of a great power, the Mono Shift.
But Edgar knew that he couldn't do all by himself, he was helped by his friends and his adoptive family. Bust most of all, he was helped by his Summon Creature, a mechaniloid soldier called EXeLD. Even though the last one was a robot, he shown great feelings, one time he even tried to pray for his master, but Edgar doesn't know that as he was talking with a woman.
Now, Edgar is traveling around the world in order to make new weapons and to become stronger. He and EXeLD defeated some powerful monsters like a satellite eye, the Death Reaper himself and a little but dangeous rabbit which turned golden, that was surely the toughest challenge even with the Mono Shift. After some rest, they went to the Hot Oni Springs.
"Aaahh, I remember this place." Said Edgar. "We met those two siblings who attacked us."
"But we were stronger, thier chances against us were below 1 percent."
"Actually they were pretty strong... You know, you tend to overstimate yourself EXeLD."
"Are you saying that my calculations are not correct?" Asked the robot walking towards Edgar.
"Uhm... I am not sa-"
"Do not lie! You are saying that I made errors! Impossible... IMPOSSIBLE! IM-PO-SSI-BLE!"
"Oh for Goura's sake." Edgar already knew what was going to happen. EXeLD started to smoke, then his eyes vanished. Some seconds later, he activated again and made a sound like a bell.
"Good morning Master. What happened?"
"Uhm, nevermind! We should go, I am curious about this unlock talisman."
"To see what it does we have to finish this dungeon again, where the monkey cursed those two ninja siblings."
"Yeah your right." Strangely enough the two did not had to fight any monster... Probably the couple defeated them, so Edgar and his Summon Creature hadn't any trouble. "Also I remember that we foug-"
"Yeah? ... Why did you stop, Master?" EXeLD turned where Edgar was looking, and he realized why there wasn't monsters.
There were two siblings, but not the ones they were talking about earlier.
Edgar could recognize those two figures by a mile, but he did not manage to say a word, so his Summon Creature talked for him. "Ehy Ryouga, Lynn." In that moment, Edgar mentally cursed his robotic friend for his... Yeah, robotic way to act.
The couple turned and saw Edgar and EXELD. The one named Ryouga hailed happily the two, when the woman Lynn smiled.
Edgar walked towards Ryouga, his best friend. The blue haired man and his (adoptive) sister had left Edgar's village because of Guren. Ryouga wanted to awaken Goura and always tried to stop the Edge Fencer, but in the end, he was doing this to sacrifice his own body instead of Edgar's.
"So." Ryouga said putting an hand on Edgar's shoulder. "How have you been?"
"Master Edgar seems incapacitaed since he saw you. So I'll speak for h-"
"Shut up EXeLD!" Edgar snapped. "I am just... Oh my god!"
"So what? Are you going to cry again?" Ryouga teased his friend and chuckled.
"Funny as always." Edgar said with an annoyed smile on his face. "By the way, did you defeat all the monsters here?"
"Yeah, I was training... But this place is full of weaklings."
"Also, I wanted to have some relax." The woman said.
Lynn, Ryouga's adoptive sister. She always tried to cheer up Edgar when Ryouga betrayed the village, giving him moral support... More like fake support since she was bonded to Guren and tried to kill Edgar. But he forgived her, he was too kind to hate someone. "Hi there." She smiled and approached the blonde boy.
"Greetings Lynn." Said EXeLD
"Uhm, hi Lynn. What do you mean by relax?"
"Didn't you see those springs? I love to have hot baths over there. And what are you doing here? Want some relax as well?" She finshed with a grin on her face which made Edgar blush a little.
"Uhm, a-a-actually I'm here for something else."
"We are here to to see what a certain talisman does."
"A talisman? And what do you hope to find here?" Asked Ryouga.
"Well, we found some special places inside of Goura's lair, then we had some battles inside deepest rooma of the Machine Factory, the Tropical Beach and in the Ice Canyons, so we are trying here. Besides, look at that rock, it looks like it is covering something."
"Hhmmm, maybe you are right."
Edgar walked towards the rock and the talisman blinked. Then it flied by itself and touched the rock which dissaperead in a red-ish light, revealing a tunnel. "Wow Edgar, you never cease to surprise me." Lynn giddled.
"Uhm, thanks Lynn." He smiled shyly.
Ryouga knew that moment too well, Lynn was toying with Edgar by teasing him, she did that almost every time she saw the boy. It always worked, and both of them knew that Edgar couldn't resist, he even confided with Ryouga calling her sister a "total babe".
He wasn't against this type of situations, but he was worried. Not about Lynn but about Edgar, what if they got engaged or even worse, they got married? Not that Ryouga was jealous of his sister, neither he had some special feelings for Edgar, but living with Lynn... Maybe his alliance with the foolish summoner Gedharm Camcarossa wasn't that bad.
"So, are you going to enter in that tunnel?"
"Yeah, this is our last mission here, for now."
"I have an idea, why won't we join forces?" Asked Lynn. "I want to see how much stronger you are since the last time."
"Yeah, she is surely curious about your strenght." Said both Ryouga and EXeLD.
"Ahahah, go on Lynn, we'll follow you!" Replied Edgar pushing Lynn inside the tunnel. "That sarcasm wasn't necessary." He said.
"I am not programmed to be sarcastic, I haven't any fault." Said EXeLD, hoping that at least he could be out of that, but Edgar's glare did not yield. "Er... I detect a great power inside of the tunner, I want to test my power!" Then the three followed Lynn
"You can equip your hammer to hit the geysers, me and Lynn will take on the monsters who will attack us. Maybe this time I am going to have some fun." Ryouga said with a grin, then he emanated a demoniac aura, in the end he transformed in a brown humanoid beast with orange hands and claws.
Then Lynn transformed too, becoming a humanoid creature with some giant hands behind her back, one of them was holding a black and blue spear. "You should stay on your guard Lynn, you lost all the strenght that Goura gave to you."
"I know brother, I am not a fool." Lynn replied, annoyed by her brother.
"Ehy, that is Toumei! Hi!"
"Edgar? What a surprise, I never thought to see you again... And... Those two..."
"Uhm, as I told you the last time, they are not on the bad side anymore." Edgar tried to defend his friends.
"That's right, we are free from Guren..." Said Lynn, walking towards him."You belive in Edgar, am I right, great shaman?" She continued emphasizing the word *great* making Toumei blush a bit.
"Uhm... All right, Edgar come here, I must recharge your gems."
After a strange ritual, the three gems that Edgar gave to him emanated a red, dazzling light. "Very well. Be spirited, both of you, Edgar and EXeLD."
EXeLD never cared about spirits but to avoid Toumei's endless blabbing he just nodded and the group started to explode the dungeon. As Ryouga expected, the monsters were much stronger than those pitful creatures near to the springs, and some times he and Lynn even needed to use them healing spells and other magic attacks, like the Burst Flare or the Chain Spark.
Sometimes even Edgar had to fight, using his Noble Buster, a weapon virtually indistructible and the only one capable to damage demons like Goura. In the end they managed to reach the end of the cave.
"Ehy, is that a monkey?" Asked Lynn when she saw a giant monkey with a necklace.
"Uh? Oh yeah, I guess it is the guardian of this place."
The monkey was staring them without moving or doing anything, probably if they left, it wouldn't attack them. But Edgar needed matierials to make stronger weapon so he prepared to fight, but the monkey was fast and attacked the blonde boy, sending him to a rock-wall.
"Edgar! Are you okay?" Asked Ryouga, reaching him.
"Urgh, yeah I am all right! Do not worry, I'll use the Red Dae-... Wait where are them?"
"Master Edgar, the monkey stoled your gems!"
"WHAT? How could it possibly take them when they were inside my bag?"
"Actually, Edgar... You put them inside your pocket after than shaman recharged them..." Said Ryouga with a dissapointed smile on his face. Edgar was as strong as careless, a great defect that Ryouga always tried to erase... Without any good result.
"Master Edgar, you are too distracted, haven't you learn anything from the day when Gabriel stole th-."
"Argh, please both of you just shut up." Said the blonde, irritated.
"Chain Spark!" Said Lynn and a purple thunder was thrown by her hand, then she attacked the monkey with her spear but the animal grabbed her extra arm and punched the woman in the stomach.
"Lynn! You overgrown monkey...!" Edgar jumped and tried to slash the enemy with his sword, but it blocked the weapon with its giant collar. Though, EXeLD managed to hit the monkey with his sigma collider, then Ryouga took Lynn away from the fight. "Stay here, Edgar and I will handle this."
"But..."
"No buts, this guy could be even stronger than me... Quick Move!"
A green light apperead around Ryouga's body and he attacked tbe monkey with his Burst Flare. "Ryouga!" Said Edgar. "Is Lynn ok?"
"Yeah, I told her to stay away from us. I think that EXeLD should leave too." "Your right, EXeLD! Go with Lynn, we will take care of this."
"As you wish, Master."
As EXeLD left the battle, the two friends rushed at the monkey and attacked it, Edgar with his sword and Ryouga with his claws, and the duo managed to damage the enemy which started to spit fire, but they easily dodged it. Then the animal tried to punch Edgar.
"Ryouga, attack this monkey while I distract it!"
The Edge Fencer grabbed his spear and started to block the punches with it, and the Summon Creature used his favourite attack, the Thousand Claws against the monkey, making it collapse to the ground, but the battle was far from be over. The giant primate jumped and spit fire from its mouth against Ryouga, damaging him. Then after pushing Edgar away, it grabbed the creature.
"Dammit... Hang in there Ryouga! Gale Strike!" The young fencer attacked the enemy with an energy wave created by his Noble Buster. The monkey groaned and left Ryouga whom used his combo again
"Wow, my brother is really enjoying himself. You know EXeLD, lately he is always searching for a challenge as he said earlier."
"Can I ask you something, Lynn?"
"Sure, what is it?"
"Why did you hold back against Master Edgar in Goura's lair?"
"Uh? What do you mean?"
"You always manage to block my Master when you meet each other, his temperature tends to rise when he is close to you. Why didn't you use that power when fighting us?"
"Wait, are you referring about...?"
"About the thing you used against the water spirit too... If my data is correct, it was called sexiness."
"Oh!" Lynn blushed. "Well... It's complicated."
"Now I can see that YOUR temperature is rising now."
"R-really? You must be joking EXeLD." And the woman made a fake laugh.
"I am serious, though I'm not programmed to be sexy... Maybe Master Edgar has some inner sexiness? It's because of that, am I right Lynn?"
"Uhm... How about keeping this as a secret, at least for now?"
"I cannot assure anything, I must be honest with my Master."
"I see... How are you feeling EXeLD? It seems you are damaged from the previous battles."
"My energy is at 53 percent and assistance would be appreciated, why are you asking me this by the way?"
"If you won't keep the secret I will deduce you trust Edgar more than anyone... So we don't need Orin to fix you, am I right?" She smiled innocently.
"Calculating... You are so mean!"
"So, how about a... Craftknight promise?"
"... I promise I won't tell anything about Lynn's feelings."
"Can I trust you?"
"A Craftknight promise is tougher than any steel!"
"Good robot." She giggled.
"AAAARGH!" Edgar was punched by the primate and thrown near to his creature and Lynn. "This guy is really tough!"
"Master, should I use my healing po-" The robot couldn't finish because of the monkey which spit his fire against the three. "Now I am done with you!" Lynn grabbed the enemy with her extra arms and attacked it with her spear. But she wasn't strong enough, the monkey effortlessly got free and hit her with its collar, making her faint.
"So, this is a new region, right?"
"Yeah it seems so..."
"I am sure we will have a lot of fun here..."
*... y... ke... p...*
*... ste... mon...*
*Lynn... Wake up...!*
*Sister, c'mon!*
"Uurgh..." Lynn opened her eyes and saw EXeLD with Ryouga.
"Sister! Are you ok?" Ryouga asked, worried about the woman.
"Yeah, thank you. Wait, where is Edgar?"
"Master Edgar is fighting the monkey, he and Ryouga managed to take the summonite gem!" Replied the robotic summon creature.
"Groooaargh!" It groaned in pain after a powerful attack from Edgar. The boy now was wearing a gray armor with some red traits, his hair went spiky and he was holding a giant sword, even bigger than his Noble Buster: That was the Mono Shift, his trump card. Now Edgar was fast enough to dodge any attack, and when the monkey finally managed to hit him, he wasn't effected at all. "This is for my friends, DISSAPEAR NOW!" The Edge Fencer finished his enemy with a energy wave from his saber, sending the monkey to a wall.
Then the boy disactivated his super form. "I can't afford to lose... Ehy guys, I did it!"
"Ehy Master, Lynn finally woke up!" Said the creature. "Really? Lynn!" Edgar runned towards the group, expecially towards the woman. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah, EXeLD and Ryouga took care of me while I was... Sleeping." She giggled a bit. "Ahahahahah, well I'll check those two boxes." He walked towards the boxes and opened them, then he returned to the group. "Look at this materials, I am sure that... What's the matter guys?"
Edgar saw his best friend with a serious look on his face, he seemed so angry... But why? "Ehy Ryouga..."
"I thought I told you to stay away from that monkey, Lynn..."
"Uh? Oh yeah, but in the end we managed to survive, there's not reason to be worried."
"That's not the point! You slowed all of us by putting at risk your life like that!"
"Oh... Well Ryouga, now y-"
"You lost your powers, Lynn!" Ryouga interrupted his sister. "When will you learn to listen to other people? WHEN?"
"Brother, I..." Her eyes started to fill with tears.
"Ohoh, that's nice, are you trying to make me feel sorry with this trick? Well that's not gonna work sist-"
"Ryouga STOP!"
Edgar pushed away Ryouga and hugged Lynn. "You are going too far with this!"
"Stay out of this, Edgar, this is not of your buisness!"
"We are a team, of course it's my buisness!"
"Edgar, you have your sister and I have mine, do not meddle with my family! Or else..." And the demoniac aura appeared again
"Ryouga, you are right, Lynn acted without thinking... And maybe you are right about the fact she should have stay where she was, but she was trying to help us!"
The eyes of the summon creature went wide at those words, but not for what Edgar could think. "Well I should have predict this... You are blinded by her charm too."
"RYOUGA!"
"Eheh... He is just right." Lynn pushed Edgar away from her and smiled. "I always trick people, you should know me."
"Lynn, what the hell are you saying?"
The woman left the springs and went near to the secret cave, ignoring Edgar who begger her to wait. The two friends along with EXeLD followed her and they saw a familiar light, she used the teleporter. Edgar and Ryouga looked for her in every fortress, Wind, Water, Thunder and Fire, the blonde boy even went to the village, but no traces of Lynn were found.
The three warriors met one last time, in the Goura's lair. "Did you found her?" Asked the brother, but the Edge Fencer did not answer him.
"Edgar... I..."
"Ryouga, you're a dick."
Those words surpised Ryouga but more than him, they surprised EXeLD. He was usually more straight than his master, due to his robotic nature, and even when Edgar shown some honesty, he never reached such levels. "I am going to home now."
"Are you going this soon Master?"
"You are free to return when you want, but take care of yourself." And he went to his home, hailed Blaire, Tataina and Orin and after dinner, he went to sleep without going out.
