Chapter 2: Chapter 2: Rigorous Training
(Kasen wakes up, feeling dizzy.)
Kasen: Huh… Where am I?
Izaki: You're in my secret base.
Kasen: And… where are my clothes?
Izaki: I threw them away.
Kasen: What?! Why?
Izaki: One of them had a tracker, but I didn't know which one. So, I had to remove them all.
Kasen: Oh… Then why is she closing her eyes?
Izaki: She doesn't want to see you dirty.
Izaki: For now, wear this.
Kasen: Okay.
Hellesa: Can I open my eyes now?
Izaki: Yes.
(Izaki opens a secret door in his base, revealing a vast collection of weapons.)
Hellesa & Kasen: That many weapons?!
Izaki: These will help us fight against the secret organization.
Hellesa: But I can't fight. I'm not a warrior—I can only help with healing.
Kasen: No problem, we can train you.
Izaki: We could, but we need an open space for efficient training.
Kasen: No worries, I'll train her.
Hellesa: Thank you for taking responsibility for my training.
Kasen: Izaki, what weapon should she use?
Izaki: This claw-shaped weapon… My father told me to give it to Hellesa if she ever wanted to become an assassin.
Kasen: This doesn't look like an efficient weapon…
Hellesa: No problem, I will use it.
(She puts on the claw weapon, and the cube-shaped core transforms into an armor set that covers her whole forearm.)
Izaki & Kasen: What?! How?!
Hellesa: I can't believe this… This is amazing!
Kasen: It looks so good on you!
Izaki: Stop praising my sister!
Kasen: Okay, sorry! Let's start training now.
(They begin training, and Kasen trains Hellesa for five days.)
Izaki: You've trained for five days now. I want to test your strength—let's fight.
Hellesa: Okay.
(They start fighting. Hellesa continuously attacks Izaki, but he blocks every move. She attacks again, but he counters and strikes back. Izaki slashes at her with his sword, but she blocks it using her claws.)
Izaki: Nice move! Now, take this—
(Izaki jumps at Hellesa, but she uses her claw's hologram shield to block his attack. She counters, throws him back, and charges at him with full force. Izaki barely manages to block.)
Kasen: This is so intense and fun to watch!
(They continue fighting for hours.)
Izaki (exhausted): Let's stop here… I'm tired.
Hellesa: Me too…
Kasen: Why stop now? Only 99% of our energy is used up! There's still 1% left—let's fight until we're completely drained!
(Hellesa and Izaki lightly smack Kasen on the head.)
Kasen: Oww! Sorry…
