ECONOMICS WAS PURE HELL. I SWEAR TO MALCOLM TURNBULL THAT SCOTT MORRISON MADE THAT EXAM.
Ahem...pardon me, just needed to let out some steam. Sorry that I wasn't able to post a new chapter up yesterday. I was watching Kekkai Sen-Studying. Yeah. I was studying. Anywhoodle, here you guys go! Thanks so much for the reviews as well, some of the rules made me laugh, and put some thoughts into my head. ONWARDS TO THE MEME.
Rule 2: Karel is not allowed to say "Omae wa mou Shindeiru". Seriously, none of us know if you're joking or not.
"FEAST MY BLADE! FEAST" Karel screamed as he hacked and slashed at the training dummies. The other sword users looked on in anguish toward the prospect of not being able to train once again. Some decided that enough was enough and went to confront the man and his demon blade.
"Karel? You've been here for far too long, let some of the new recruits have a chance to use the facilities!" Eirika reprimanded him, pulling off her most stern look.
It wasn't very stern.
Karel looked toward her and laughed.
"Only after my blade desires food no longer, shall I rest."
Of course, me being the excellent summoner that I was overheard the commotion and went to see what all the fuss is about.
"What's going on here? Why hasn't Chrom smashed all the training dummies yet?"
"I haven't had a chance to Akimo." Came Chrom's reply, currently standing next to Marth and Roy.
"Oh…why not?"
"Karel."
I looked toward the said suspect and noticed that he and Eirika were in a heated discussion. I waltzed toward the two, hoping to break apart the argument. If things got bloody, Ephraim would be angry…not that I had him yet but still.
"Guys! Guys! What's going on?" I asked the two, mostly directing the question toward Eirika. Karel's answers tended to be a little…over the top.
"Karel won't let others train!"
I looked toward Karel and sighed, giving him a tablet.
"Here, play with this for a while."
"I'm not a child."
"Too bad."
He looked toward the screen and noticed that it had a picture. On it were the words 'Hokuto no Ken'.
"Akimo, might I ask what is this?"
"Oh that? It's an anime. You'll like it. Have fun with it. Just…don't let it influence you yeah?"
Karel didn't really understand what I meant, but thanked me for the screen anyway. With it, he strolled towards his quarters, intrigued by the constant flashing of 'moving pictures'.
"Thanks Akimo!" Eirikia said happily, and went off to train with the dummies…only to discover that they'd all been destroyed.
"DARN IT CHROM!"
"What even is this device?" Karel asked himself for the umpteenth time, as he closed the door to his private quarters. Setting his Wo Dao + on the table, he sat down and pressed 'play'.
"Karel? Why are you up so early?" Came Ayra's voice as she observed Karel slashing the training dummies once again. Not hearing her, Ayra walked up to him and tapped him on the shoulder.
"OMAE WA MOU…SHINDEIRU!" He screamed, reappearing behind Ayra.
"WHAT!?"
Then it happened. Karel's eyes turned red. Lasers appeared in place of the eye sockets that he had used so often last night. Ayra looked at him in horror, and almost feared for her life that she would end up dying due to this. Almost.
An explosion was heard throughout the castle.
Sharena and Alfonse were the first to show up, the former in her pyjamas.
"What the hell is happening!? Are we under attack!? Akimo, what do we do!?"
I showed up a lot later than the two, yawning.
"What's going on? What's this?"
Ayra stood up from the rubble, in damaged clothing. Following her reappearance at the scene, Karel stood up. Also in damaged clothing.
"What the hell happened to you two!?" Came Alfonse's voice, almost dreading what would happen if the two were to fight on the same team during a mission.
"I don't know! I saw Karel training and decided to walk up to him! Then he said something that I didn't understand and the next minute, there was an explosion! Sheesh, what's his problem anyway?" Came Ayra's voice from over the smoke.
"What did he say?" I asked her, walking toward the scene.
"Something like…'Oh may war mo Shinto..'? I don't know!"
Something clicked in my head. Oh. Oops. I forgot that this was Karel we were talking about. A simple anime would not be enough to sate his blood thirst for…blood? Food for his sword? I don't know.
"Ohhhh, haha…ummm, about that…that's kinda my fault. Sorry." I apologized to her, while bowing my head in atonement.
"Umm, that's alright…I guess?" She trailed on, confusion spread upon her blackened face due to the soot from the explosion.
"Karel, forget I ever told you to watch that. Could I have the Tablet back?"
"Never! It is the bane of my existence!"
Anna suddenly appeared at the scene, holding said tablet in her hands. The absolute legend.
"Here you are Akimo! I was actually looking for this. What's the thing on it that you buy stuff and the percentages go up and down?"
"Anna give it here, and that's a stock market by the way."
Reluctantly, she handed over the device. I tapped the videos and proceeded to remove them one by one, as Karel's saddened face was made aware of the dreadful happenings that befall his favourite…'Anime'.
"You wouldn't be able to use it anyway…we don't have Internet here."
"Yes we do!"
I stopped whatever I was doing (Which was deleting all the files of Hokuto no Ken) and turned to her.
"We do?"
"Yeah! Why do you think I've been sending feathers to people and been purchasing so much express post satchels?"
"THEY HAVE THOSE HERE!?"
At that moment, all my delusions that the world of Heroes was a nice, sane place shattered around me.
"But-Bu…how did you..?" I stammered, praying that there was some logical explanation as to why Anna could access the Internet and purchase Express Post Satchels.
"You left the portal open a couple of times. Literally anyone can walk in and out of those."
"Oh."
"C-can I have t-the tablet back..?" Karel stuttered, hoping for some way to redeem his new favourite hobby. I looked at him with a blank stare.
"No. Also, you're banned from saying 'Omae wa mou…Shindeiru'."
"NANI!?"
I pointed the Breidablik at the massive, impeding stone tablet that had blocked my vision. These were my last 5 orbs for the day. I sighed. Here goes nothing.
'Please be witch Nowi, please be witch Nowi' I prayed with all my heart, hoping that a 5 star would show up.
A bright flash shattered my vision. Beautiful, blue, flowing hair appeared out of the portal as the swordwoman unleashed her blade. A blade that I had seen all too often. Letting out my happiness, I screamed.
"LUCINAAAAAAAAAAAA!"
So that was a thing. Honestly I can imagine Karel constantly saying 'Omae wa mou Shindeiru'. Yes in all honesty, I did summon a Lucina last night. She was...-Atk, +Def. Still gonna use her. I can't wait for Spring to show up again...maybe I can try again for bunnycina to complete my collection.
Next chapter will be up in...idk maybe a couple of hours? If I can be bothered.
