Nine Tailed System 47 Chain-claw

Since the Safaru Ruins were pretty near from the borders of the desert, Marco and Alice were able to easily get out from it, and now they were in a savannah, just at the borders of the Noah Region, they were walking to the Grand Noah Castle now.

They could directly walk to the Undine's Spring, but first of all, Marco was curious about the Grand Noah Castle, he wanted to fight against another Heavenly Knight that is there, he said before that he would visit any place, and Alice, who was reading her old travel book, was curious about the food.

Alice: Hmm, it seems there are quite a few unique specialities to be found there. The Colosseum in the Castle is quite famous, too. Well, not that I care about what goes on in the Colosseum floor. But the food stands in the seating area are supposed to be riveting.

Marco: …

Alice: Hmmhmm… In the far off east from here, there's a village called Yamatai with a unique food culture. Sushi, tempura, sukiyaki, soba… That sounds awfully interesting…

Marco: 'Can't… Hear… Anymore… Kill me…'

Marco couldn't listen to her things about food anymore, and waited for a random monster to fight or something else… And now, he heard the sound of hooves nearby.

Marco: Huh? A horse?

Alice: Hmm, it's one of those insatiable breeding types. I'll take my leave.

Marco finally remembered what this moment was supposed to be, the start of the 2nd Chapter of the game, and the protagonist's first encounter is with a generic centaur monster. Alice vanished and Marco prepared himself for a fight, immediately using the 1st Gate.

Then, in front of him she came, it was a centaur with brown fur, she had a thin body despite the thickness of her lower body, she was wearing a leather bra and a collar made in iron, she had gray hair gathered in a ponytail and a pair of horse ears over her head.

She was looking at him with her light red eyes and a blush on her face, while panting, and said.

Centaur Girl: B...Boy, I have a request…

Marco: Nope, not gonna fuck you, if you want to use something just stick a sheath of a sword in a tree and use that as a dildo.

Then Marco walked away, but the centaur didn't want to give up so she immediately got frenzy and attacked him, Marco knew something like this would happen, but Marco didn't dodged her, he just raised an arm of his and blocked the centaur's charge.

The results were unexpected, Marco, who was smiling, didn't moved an inch from his place, while the centaur stopped moving, shocked from Marco's herculean strength, in reality, Marco was using Gnome's powers to transform his body in a unsurpassable wall.

Marco: 'Christ! This strength is fantastic!'

Sylph: Hey! And what about me?!

It seems that Sylph what jealous that he was complimenting Gnome's powers instead of hers, but Marco just replied with his mind.

Marco: 'Don't worry, there is something even more amazing your wind can do, it's just that I can use it only when I reach the 4th Gate.'

Sylph: Then use it!

Marco: 'No, I'm not, I don't want to make a big hole in the planet, you will wait for your moment to shine…'

Sylph: 'Yaaay! I'm useful too!'

Marco: 'Alright, let's finish this…'

Then Marco turned while holding the centaur with his hand, and used Demon Decapitation with his other hand, beheading her, then she glowed and turned into a small horse, who ran away.

Marco deactivated his 1st Gate and stopped using Gnome's powers to strengthen his body. Then he looked at his hand and said calmly while Alice came beside him.

Marco: Well, I think I can do better… Just a bit of practice…

Alice: ... Do you realize that no one could normally use the spirits like that just after not even a week of practice…?

Marco: Meh, don't worry about details… Since the sun is falling down let's camp here tonight.

Alice: Alright, make dinner…

Marco: Sheesh, not even a thank you…

Alice: You know what? I'm in good mood so I shall make dinner tonight, what sort of traveling gourmet I am if I can't even show off my cooking capabilities?

Marco: 'Oh fuck…'

[Alice's POV]

Marco finished setting out the camp and prepared the cooking items and ingredients for me to use, but he curiously put them away from the camp, then he strangely walked away with haste… Whatever, I'll satisfy him with my incredible cooking skills!

Alice: I'll make you addicted to my food…

Then I turned towards the cooking pot, and I narrowed my own eyes.

Alice: Hmph. Tremble before my unrivaled skill! 'Well, first of all I should start the fire…' "Omega Blaze"!!

Then the cooking pot was immersed in the sea of flames I just created, and it started to melt… Oh fuck it started to melt!!

Alice: Uhhhh… 'Let's just go away…'

Then I slithered away from the destruction I created, the trees around were reduced to ashes, so were the ingredients, some furnitures and the grass.

*Cooking Pot was defeated!*

Then Marco seen me while I wore a smile, and asked with a frown.

Marco: What's with that self confident face… *Sigh* We will have dried meat for dinner…

The smile got away from my face and I replied.

Alice: ...It was unavoidable, I was never taught cooking skills. All I studied was how to be a good Monster Lord, not how to be a homemaker.

Marco: I literally succeeded at my first try! And why the hell you used a magic spell?! …*Sigh* Whatever… How was being taught from only-you-know-it?

Alice: It was Tamamo, and she was a good teacher…

Marco: ...Now that I think about it, when is your birthday?

Hm? Why he wants to know? Meh, who cares…

Alice: It is at 18 June, I'll be 22 years this year.

Marco: Oh, nice. 'What a coincidence, it was my same birthday at my past life… Well, now that I think about it today is the 10 June…'

I didn't had any idea about what he was thinking, but with arrogance, I smiled and told him.

Alice: I'm older than you, show some respect. You idiot.

Then Marco started to laugh… What was funny about what I said?

Marco: Hahah… The day I respect you only because you are older than me will be the same day where I'll be baptized… 'Besides, I'm 30 years old if you combine my previous age with this…'

Tsk… Sometimes he makes me so angry…

Alice: ...That's enough, it's time to start tonight's combat training…

Marco nodded and started to use 'Start', then he followed Alice somewhere where he would not damage anything from their camp.

[Later, no POV]

Marco was covered in the powers of wind and was training under Alice's eyes, Marco had a small idea and used Sylph's powers to attack a thick tree with an attack rush, Alice was a bit surprised from the technique that Marco was trying to use.

Marco was twisting his body at a really high speed, as if he was a chainsaw, the wind-covered claws were mincing the tree with a speed which was impossible to follow at naked eyes for normal people, Marco was just like a beyblade, and finally he cut the tree.

The upper trunk fell in the ground with a loud noise and Marco deactivated Sylph's powers and took deep breaths.

That technique he just used was really tiring, they were 7 slashes per second, which required enough concentration and strength to not stop after attacking something hard and continue to turn around for the next attack with the other arm.

Alice: Hmm, congratulations, you created a personal technique.

She said with her usual uninterested tone, but Marco was satisfied anyways.

Marco: Alright… *Pant* ...Like any technique existing, it needs a name… Chain-claw… It doesn't sound that bad… What do you think about it?

Alice: I don't care, that is your technique, so you have the right to name it. Still, it's time to sleep now. Let's go.

Marco: Nn…

Then Marco cleaned himself and slept in his tent, while Alice coiled around a tree like every night.

[JUST A RANDOM IDEA, NOT CONNECTED WITH ANYTHING WITH THE ORIGINAL STORY]

.

In Hellgondo, from the castle of the Monster Lord, there were 5 figures in the highest balcony, they were the four Heavenly Knights and Alice, the 5 of them were watching something from far away with a dumbfounded face.

They weren't watching the abnormally black clouds which were forming a giant vortex by spinning around.

They weren't watching the countless red thunders crashing in the ground as if the apocalypse started.

But they were watching a figure in distance, which was probably at the border of Hellhondo, how could they watch something so far away when they were at the center of the continent?

First of all, their enchanted sight helped a lot, then the figure they were watching was a gargantuan humanoid dark green creature with a par of enormous demonic wings, they couldn't see it's face because it turned away from them, but they could see a human in its shoulder…

Alice: Goddammit Marco…

Then they heard a voice from far away. It was Marco that was talking with a strange language...

Marco: Stell'bsna Cthulhu!!! (Pray to Cthulhu!!!)

Cthulhu: ROOOOOOOAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR

…

Yeah… There are things that not even Author knew…

Tamamo: How… How did he even found Cthulhu!?

Alice: ...I honestly don't have idea…

Granberia: Well, he's gone now… And I wanted a rematch…

Alma Elma: ...So enormous…

Erubetie: *Sigh*
