Yeah so a few guys actually reviewed (Thanks Zenko and LyingHiki). Sorry I never checked them before this chapter.
Well lets get to it since, I'm not easy on time.
Oh yeah I went with a Knight….A freaking Death Knight!
Sounds of heavy and rapid breathing could be heard inside a warehouse.
Yukinoshita was sitting on the floor and leaning against a box. She had leapt from the roof of a twelve storey building and if that alone wasn't crazy enough she had managed to do this for three building after which she had slipped and ended up falling through a glass roof of the third and had broken her right foot.
It seemed to be a large warehouse by looking at it and it seemed that it had not been cleaned in forever.
She didn't know why she did that, risking her life for one card.
She pulled the card out of her pocket and took a closer look at it.
The card was pressed and made of a hard metal. It was slightly larger than a pack of cigarettes and letters and a rough picture was drawn on the thin card. She raised the card above her head and it flashed. The card shone like it was under an incandescent light.
"Just what is the deal with card?" She muttered. Was this some sort of extra rare card in some card game?
And just who were those psychopaths?
They had to be escapees from some sanatorium as they were wearing those strange clothes and what was with that ugly costume?
A hundred questions rose in her mind before a wave of pain erupted near her leg and her wrist.
Her leg was broken and she had gotten a cut from the falling glass. The blood flowed from her wrist to her elbow. She hurriedly put down the card and wiped the blood with her clothes. She tore a piece of her shirt and tied her bleeding wrist. She didn't realize when a drop of blood fell on the card that was placed on the ground till the card suddenly began shining.
As she picked up the shining card it suddenly began to erupt with light as if one had opened the door to an underground market after walking through a mile of darkness. The blood on the card was absorbed and a book appeared in front of her.
She flinched with surprise.
The book was floating in the air. She brought his trembling hands to the book and it stuck to her hands like magnet.
The surface was made of a very luxurious leather material. There were no letters on it, just a book covered in black leather. It felt like he was looking at an old map book.
"What is this?" She muttered before she tried to open the book.
Then suddenly a screen appeared in front of her like a hologram.
[Analyzing your Data]
[••••••]
[••••••]
[Analysis complete]
She stared at the hologram that appeared in front of the book. Then the book opened of its own accord. The pages flipped to the center and on the page a square could be seen.
[You are qualified to use the book]
[Would you like to view the help text?]
She looked at the square and a message window popped up in the hologram.
Hero Summon
A Hero card can be summoned. If a connector connects the hero card then the hero can be summoned into reality and will cross time and space to do your bidding.
Then small squares started appearing beneath the larger one.
Sub-Cards
Monster, Equipment, And Item cards can be held in this deck.
The book closed after that explanation and a new window appeared.
Connector, do you want to register?
'What the hell?' That was the only going in her mind. This weird card-like-thing was asking her to register after performing a Magic show.
It was pretty confusing but due to her intelligence she was able to scrape together some information.
'Those people which attacked me must be….hero's, yes it must me true."
But there were too many holes that she could not fill.
"Hoo….." She hesitated for a moment. However, her moment of hesitation was pretty short.
Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!
Suddenly the firmly closed warehouse door made loud noises.
"What?"
Kwajijik!
Soon the entire warehouse door was knocked off. Yukino's eyes widened with surprise.
The oversized 3 metres large monster appeared. The hulk from earlier….well if it was a different colour then it would really resemble the hulk.
Oh my god….
She didn't have any other options at this point.
"R-register." She muttered and letters were written in clear ink on the book cover.
[Connector: Yukino Yukinoshita]
The book has been stamped. This book is now your medium that connects you to your cards.
[Class: A]
[Specialty: Specialist (C)]
The hulk like monster broke the door of the warehouse and disappeared. And then three people appeared. One woman and two men.
"How did she manage to escape you, according to the report her stamina was not good."
The female was the first to open her mouth. Her outfit was similar to the dress code of a SM club. It was a tight leather dress with a very short skirt. The long, straight black hair and female fragrance gave her a powerful beauty. Hearing that they knew about her stamina meant that they were not friends.
"I can't feel the magic of the card. Maybe she managed to wake up the card?"
'Woke up the card?'
Speaking of the card. Where did she place the card? She dug in her pocket but it wasn't there. Her eyes widened and he looked on the other side.
'Nothing.'
"Wake up the card? Isn't she a civilian?"
"She is the daughter of Yashiro Yukinoshita, not to mention that her sister was also an S-class connector. So she must have got a powerful card as well."
"…" Did they say, her sister?
There was a moment of silence between the three of them.
"Book." "Book." "Book."
And at the same time, all three of them muttered for their Book. At the same time, books appeared in the air in front of the three of them. It was the same book that She had now.
'Connector.' Now she understood what was going on.
Those three were connectors, the same thing that she had just registered as and they were after the card that her sister had sent her.
Suddenly, it was like Time stopped and at the same time three pillars of light descended from the sky.
'Hero summon' That's what it was. To further confirm her doubts. 3 figures arose in the middle of those pillars.
The woman summoned the Medieval Knight.
[Champion: Class A Knight]
Lancelot du Lac
A KNIGHT OF THE ROUND TABLE
The other two people summoned the hulk-lookalike and the samurai.
[Monster]
Half-Orc
A HALF BREED OF AN ORC AND A OGRE
[Monster]
Ronin
A WANDERING SAMURAI WITHOUT A MASTER
This time she saw their names. The Hulk-lookalike was a Half ogre and the samurai was a Ronin.
Wait, wasn't the knight from the same Lancelot from the legend of King Arthur?
"You smell of blood." The Samurai said and pointed in the direction of Yukinoshita with his blade.
The woman rapped her fingers and the knight rushed over to the place and lifted his sword and brought it down cutting the box neatly in half.
Yukinoshita screamed and threw herself at the wall. Now she was looking at them, her back to the wall while the woman gave an evil smile.
"Hand over the card and well let you go." But she had no intention of bending to someone who had hurt her and she would fight back.
First of all. She needed the book. The fights between Connectors used the 'Book.' She could tell just by looking at the heroes.
"Book!"
She also pulled out her book. The book automatically showed the first page as it appeared. It was however empty.
The message from earlier suddenly surfaced again in her head, 'One hero card is currently being held….eh?'
1 card.
That meant it was somewhere. She half-heartedly put her hand on the hero card slot in the 'Book.'
Pu-hung!
At the same time, a card rose up. She grabbed it as he felt the distinctive texture. The katana was falling at a 90 degree angle while a two handed sword was about to be stabbed through his stomach. There was no escape so it seemed like she would die now...
But-
Se had to try it. She couldn't even verify what was written on the card as she placed it in the hero card slot.
Chalkang!
There was a cheerful, metallic sound as her body was wrapped in a white light.
Kang! Kakakang!
The sounds were soon audible. It was the sound of the katana and the two handed sword hitting the wall.
"Shit…." The men said, "Now we're fucked." The woman ended.
She was in a mist. She couldn't see anything. The blood from her wounds had not stopped flowing so she started to feel faint.
The suddenly the fog cleared and she found herself in a…battlefield would be a better word for the scene unfolding in front of her eyes.
There were several soldiers in Red armors and in the middle of them was a single man in a Black armor which was caked in blood and around him several dozen lay dead.
Suddenly the red armor began to flock at him from several sides. However the man stood straight. The people attacked him with their swords, but whenever one would attack him he would suddenly be linked with a lightning chain to the man. Then as the 7 people were connected by the chain he suddenly rotated and using the chain threw all of them into the air. Then all of a sudden all of them exploded and fell down in pieces.
One surviving soldier tried to run away but the man simply lifted something resembling a flintlock pistol hanging from his side and fired it at the man who fell immediately.
All this while Yukino was lying on the ground due to her wound and watching the scene in horror. Then suddenly the man turned to look at her and goose bumps appeared on her skin.
The man began slowly walking towards her and she desperately scooted back but failed. She would die here she was sure.
"Bring it on!" She screamed, "Just kill me already!" She screamed with tears now flowing down her face, "Why is everyone so eager to kill me?" She muttered her voice now hoarse and closed her eyes to accept her death.
After a few seconds of nothing happening she opened her eyes and saw the warrior standing in front of her looking at her.
"Who are you?" He asked, his voice sounding unsure of himself, then suddenly after looking at her for a second he spoke again, "You're not a Yukinoshita by any chance are you?"
She wasn't able to control herself.
"So what? You're going to kill me to because of my family?" She demanded but the warrior just gave a exhausted sigh.
"For crying out loud, why am I stuck with this family?" Then looking at the Sky he yelled again, "Did you curse me or something you bastard?"
After cursing for a minute at the sky he focused his attention back on Yukino.
"Well, let's get along in the Future." He said while extending a hand. It was the right hand like he was asking to shake hands and so she also stretched out her hand. Anyway, there was no other way.
Hwaaak!
The man divided into dozens of pieces after they shook hands. Yes, just like a clone technique. The dozens of men floated in the air and moved around her. The clones were using some type of magic.
Once the movements finished, the clones gathered in one place.
Chwachachachak!
They joined into one man and gradually turned into a small light.
And
The flashing light slowly moved in front of Yukino. She raised her hands like she was spellbound and touched the light. Curiously, all the wounds on her body disappeared in an instant. She felt fit and unbelievable stood up straight, even though earlier her foot was broken.
Then suddenly she saw the letters "Hero Summon" in front of her and the world went white.

[Valkyria Chronicles OST- Battle]
She was suddenly back in the warehouse. The people and the heroes were visible once more. They looked scared.
Then suddenly a pillar of light appeared in front of her. The woman recovered her sense and shouted, "Kill her before the summoning is succeeds." She yelled and all of them charged at her.
Then suddenly all of the people and heroes were blown back by a blast of wind and fire.
Then suddenly a Black Armor was visible in the Pillar of light.
[A Hero has been summoned for the first time. As a result Full power of the Hero will be displayed]
Then suddenly a voice boomed out across the warehouse.
N.O…B.L.O.O.O.D…
N.O…B.O.N.E…
N.O….A.S.H….
Then as the pillar disappeared and the Black Armored warrior appeared. He was wearing slightly different armor than the Woman's Knight. It seemed more modern and he also had two flintlock pistols near his waist.
"K-Kill him!" She woman yelled.
The three hero's again tried to move but then suddenly the warrior disappeared.
An afterimage seemed to appear in front of Lancelot. The person was moving so fast that there was only an afterimage.
Pa pa pa pak!
At the same time, Lancelot's armor was shattered and he crashed to the ground. The knight's armor became needles and blood spurted into the air. Lancelot disappeared at the same time.
The A Class hero card had died instantly.
Then there was the 'woo' sound of someone running.
Kwajijijik!
The oversized Half Ogre flew towards the other end of the warehouse. And there was the sound of the warehouse windows and waste materials breaking. And the samurai's body also headed towards the Half Ogre and crashed into it making them both dissapear.
The one Class A and two Class B heroes were defeated in literally 3 seconds.
"No way!"
The woman took out a knife and rushed forward.
Syak!
Her gesture was blocked in vain. A gust of wind wrapped around her body. The two men as well. The three people seemed like they had been surrounded by a whirlwind as they floated in the air. And then a sound of bones snapping was heard.
She again watched in horror as the three people dropped lifelessly on the ground. Well there was no realism so she could get over it.
….Well just maybe.
Then as the people were taken care of the armored man appeared in the center of the carnage and began walking towards her. He stood in front of her with his arms folded, as if protecting her.
Suddenly she began to feel sleepy and before she passed out her hero's information caught her eye.
