Kazuya was doing just fine in his physical training and was the top of his class in every subject. Ingrid did something no one was expecting her to do. The next time he saw her was when she showed up to his classroom.

She was waiting outside for someone, everyone heard of their fight. Why was she waiting for someone here you ask, well people believed that she was there to pick another fight against Kazuya, but to the pandora, in class, it was clear that it was not her intention.

They saw her standing to wait for someone innocent, shy and all cutesy. It was clear as day that she did not want another fight, but what did she want. Kazuya was not one to be able to read emotions too well, so he activated one of his volt weapons and with a sword in hand went outside.

"I am not here to fight so please disarm yourself," Ingrid told him as she looked at him. "I am here to apologize, I did not mean to insult your warrior's pride. For that, I am truly sorry and hope that you will forgive me. I also come to ask for a favor if you are willing to listen."

Kazuya simply looked at her. The silence was a sign of approval. "I am here to request to you that you be my sparring partner."

Kazuya simply wondered what brought this on. "Why would you want to spar with someone you clearly don't think much of?" Ingrid looked at him, "You maybe be in the first year, but you are also the only one that can push me to my limits. I want to grow stronger so I can better prepare to kill the Nova!" Kazuya simply took it all in, "I will spend time sparring with you when I have some free time!"

Ingrid smiled after hearing that and they both shuck hands. "But understand this I will not be your limiter, ever. So I would dismiss the chance outright."

Ingrid laughed for what seemed in a long time, "You don't have to worry about me Kazuya, I love my limiter so much I wouldn't be surprised we end up getting married after we graduate." Kazuya dismissed his volt weapon. "Well, how does next Friday at 7:00 pm sound to you for our first spar?" Ingrid understood that he was not going to interrupt his own studies.

"Sounds good to me, see you at the place where we fought last." Ingrid walked away. She did not notice the sheer look of anger that both Elizabeth and Satellizer were giving her. The misunderstanding was going to happen after all. Atia looked a the situation and felt that things were about to become really fun for her.

Elizabeth had wanted the position of sparring partner with the first year wonder. She felt that maybe she could teach him a thing or two. Having watched that fight blew that plan out of her mind.

She was the one that could learn a thing or two from him. So she would take her study materials to the male dorm library and maybe help him academically. If she wore nice seductive clothes when there were alone, then maybe she could get him more than a little interested in her.

She did not have to worry about someone seeing her, and it was clear to the top ranks of her year, that she had no problem being too forward with her underhanded attempts at seduction. The top 3rd ranks pretty much had seen here swim naked just to relax. At the very least she would be wearing some clothes when they were alone.

Satellizer was the one that was the most shocked, after what she heard in class that day. A new student transfer had introduced herself in a way that made her mad. She had walked in front of the entire class and as the instructor told her she introduced herself. "I am Rana Aoi, I do hope that you and my soulmate Kazuya can get along!" The instructor did not like the joke and had her her re-introduce herself. "Oh, alright I am Rana Linchen. We will get along just fine as long as you realize that Kazuya is mine! And if someone tries to take him from me, they had better be prepared to fight for him!"

Satellizer was more than ready to beat this new transfer to a bloody pulp. But she did not want to create a scene. "Does Kazuya even know that you are pretty much claiming him, without his approval?" Satellizer whispered to Rana as she took the seat next to her. "Oh, if he doesn't he will know soon enough, I will not have Kazuya suffer the taint of weakness. His tears of Kunlun shine brightest and that is how I intend them to remain."

Kazuya went through his day like any other, today was Monday and he was planning on reading some more strategy books and maybe a little psychology textbook that Doctor Elize had lent him. He was reading alone in the library. When he saw Elizabeth walk into the library room yet again. He stood up and offered to help her with her book bag.

She simply told him that there was no need. She walked and sat right next to him, in a way that he would easily see what she was displaying for him to see. If he ever managed to drag his face off the book he was reading. "I actually brought a few of my own books on strategy, you can't get this books from the library. So I felt like you might enjoy them." Kazuya simply thanked her for the kind gesture and continued reading.

It was clear that Kazuya was either incredibly dense or extremely focused on his studies. "Kazuya, could we chat for a little bit. As a member of the student body, I have been asked questions about you all the time. It would be a major help if you could clear some of these annoying rumors." Kazuya did not want to reveal too much of what his life was like or what he could do. Some of it was classified after all. But he did remember her kind gesture and believed that such a gesture such be paid in kind.

"Very well, but please note that there are subjects that are classified, and I will not discuss them ever. As long as you understand that please go ahead and ask your questions." Elizabeth took with the question she wanted to asks most. "Do you have a girlfriend, lover, or even arranged marriage partner?" Kazuya tried thinking hard and answered, "No, as far as I know I have no arranged marriage contract, no lover, and my girlfriend was killed by the Nova back in my home village."

Elizabeth was both happy and sad, happy that he was available, sad because she made him remember the loss of his girlfriend. "Did you love her a lot?" Kazuya simply gave a short and painful sounding yes.

"You look like you had professional training would you mind telling me what training that was?" Kazuya was conflicted with either telling her he was an elite fighter in his village or simply going to answer the most basic answer. In the end, he chose the basic and simple.

There was no way a civilian from another country would understand anyways. "I am a shinobi, I was the youngest to graduate from my academy. Was given full rights as an adult at the age of nine. Tutored younger classes and even a few older at the age of seven." Elizabeth wondered why he would be called an adult before even becoming a teen. He saw the look on her face, "Old enough to kill, old enough to be an adult." was his next statement.

"Why did you take that shape and why did you participate in the second year's carnival?" Kazuya again was thinking what to tell her. Some of it was classified, "I was ordered by the higher echelons in authority to take that form. Seeing me fight in my true form I would cause quite the scandal. I am the only one with my abilities after all. Why I chose to take part in the carnival. That is complicated, I was ordered as to make the officials of this school know my possible strength level, as for me I took part of it to test myself against what I believed to be strong opponents."

"I was sadly mistaken. Only two pandoras of the whole carnival took fighting seriously. If it was not for those two my time in the entire carnival would have been a complete waste of my time." Elizabeth had to know who could those pandoras be. She had suspicions remembering the ranking after the carnival. "Satellizer L. Bridget had a respectable desire to ensure victory, and Ganessa Roland at the time felt like she had a hunger to improve. After my fight with her, I realized that it was not the case. She had a hunger to feed her own vanity! So, in the end, she showed me how weakness can be hidden as something else."

Elizabeth could tell from his voice, there was something that Kazuya hated more than dishonesty. It was a weakness, he hated weakness in himself and in others. This made him even more attractive to her, finally, someone who shared her mindset. She was more and more determined to make him hers, and no one would get in her way without a fight.
