Almekia Kingdom
74. Diamond - Little sister

Ruby immediately pushed Jade's body away from her, slouching and coughing as her hunting breath.

Ruby's condition seemed very miserable, his body staggered and fell on the floor. He looked at Jade with a pushy look full of hatred and grudge burning.

I could see tears flowing in the corner of her eyes. Whether it's tears of anger, sadness, disappointment. Or because of his hurt self-esteem.

"Damn it! I can't believe you're such an asshole!" he told Jade.

Jade slowly walked back towards Ruby, she crouched down near him. He looked up the girl's face so close to his own, looking at her very sharply.

"I have been patient to treat you well. But you keep provoking me. Don't you think I'm that good, I can make you suffer, too. So stop all your behavior and just follow what I say!" Threaten Jade with a sizzling tone full of threat.

Fearlessly Ruby stared back at Jade. Showing her unanimous determination and courage that she is not afraid of any threat Jade poses.

For a moment the two were just silent, exchanging gazes full of anger and hatred. Perhaps they could only curse and curse each other in their hearts.

"I will not hesitate to kill anyone who dares to block my path to have you!" Jade finally removed Ruby's face from the clutches of her hand. Leaving the girl who was still sitting on the floor just like that. Jade continued to step out of the room towards the hangar gear.

I approached Ruby who was still curled up and crying on the floor. Slowly I helped him stand up, I held him in my arms, trying to calm him down.

The girl just silently accepted my treatment with her body shaking violently and her cries getting melted in my arms. Zircon and Simone also approached us and looked at Ruby with concerned looks.

I can feel something warm and wet flowing and wetting my front work, Ruby's tears. I gently rubbed Ruby's red hair and occasionally lightly patted her head to calm her down a bit.

I don't know why I can't see it that way. So weak and helpless was very different from his arrogant and selfish everyday appearance.

Even though Ruby is a mischievous girl by herself, I don't know why I feel affection for that girl. It's like Saphir or Platina, as my sweet little sister.

Because it's also since long ago I never get angry when he did his action in the West Line area. I assume he's just doing juvenile delinquency to get attention, because he's lonely. I will always come to him and solve the problems he made himself without ordering my men. Because I knew he just wanted to see me, got my attention.

"I want to get away from him. He's gone mad...Take me away from here, get away from her." Ruby quivered in fear on the sidelines of her cries.

Neither I, Zircon nor Simone could remain silent and unable to respond to Ruby's request. Well either way one of us was in the line that the girl expected to defeat Jade, saving her from the clutches of Jade.

Kumasuki hangar gear with light steps as soon as the committee called my name to make preparations. When I entered the hangar gear, I found a red gear that was no stranger to waiting for me there, Phoenix.

As per the rules of the tournament gear used in the semifinals and finals is the private gear of each participant. Of course to offer a more interesting match. So that tournament participants can exert all their fighting abilities to the maximum.

I'll soon pick up my gear. I checked all my gear and gear weapons, I took two short laser swords and I placed them both on my gear thighs. I also took a standard-sized sword with a red handle and put it in the right hand of my gear.

I also installed a rhombus-shaped steel shield that extends in the left hand of my gear. The series of weapons I used in every fight and battle I had with the Phoenix. I turned on my gear's main computer and I called him.

"Hallo Phoenixes. We're going to fight for the tournament today" I told him.

"Hello Diamond's. What fighting mode do you want this time?" Artificial intelligence Phoenix answered my greeting.

"Fast aggressive battle by minimizing the use of magic power. All set." Phoenix again showcases a series of combos I can use as well as the energy sharing and fuels it will do during the game.

"Eh?" I was astonished to see this unusual Phoenix setting.

How could he know that I should save my inner manpower by minimizing the use of magic? I never even programmed my gear that detailed.

Amethys must have done it! Who else can push my gear and set it so that it can ease and reduce the burden of my body like that. But I don't like the fight mode that is too complicated, binding and a lot of rules so. I prefer to fight freely and endlessly follow my instincts.

"Return to the initial settings. Full pilot control." My orders to Phoenix.

"You only need to support and back up if the situation is desperate"

Phoenix instantly processed my command, making the statistical display on my gear screen change completely. Turns out Amethys' goal left me early in the morning to set my gear? So where is he now? Shouldn't he have come back to my side after doing his goal?

Why hasn't he come back until now? Did something happen to her? Was he caught trying to program my gear? I don't know why anxiety and bad thoughts haunt me when I think of Amy.

"One more time and warning indicator every ten minutes" my last command on that gear. I remember very well the limit time that modori told me, my body's current endurance limit.

Next I took out the medicine box that midori had given me on the West Line from my pants pocket. I opened the box and found three ampoules of medicine there. I took one ampule and I saved the remaining two ampules. I broke the ampoule cap, I found a sharp needle behind the cap, connected to the ampule body that contained medicinal liquid.

Immediately I plugged the ampule needle into my left upper arm. I can feel the flow of medicine entering and being absorbed by my body. The strange sensation I felt as the more liquid it entered my body, the lighter it felt. It was as if I could float in the air without the weight of my body.

Absolutely insane! This drug is even many times stronger than other oral analgesics that I usually consume every day.

"Let's go, Phoenix," I flew out my gear as soon as the hangar gear door opened and from the arena there was a roar and the cheers of spectators from all over.

Fade my gear right in the middle of the arena and soon Jade also landed right in front of me with her emerald green gear. The green gear looked sturdy and sophisticated with swords and shields in both hands. So the weapon he was wearing was the same as me? At least this fight will be a fair fight.

"Hello everything! Good afternoon and welcome to the semifinals of BloodyHell's annual tournament. Do not forget to place a bet because the betting prize for this round will be doubled. As soon as you choose and support your respective heroes" Voice Referee opened the event, echoing and booming in all corners of the arena accompanied by a rapturous reception by all the audience that I estimate numbering in the thousands.

"This time around, Mr. Diamond is the representative of the first Miss Ruby. He'll fight by controlling his red gear, Phoenix." The referee introduced me and my gear to the entire audience who were greeted by them with shouts, applause and other sorts of furore.

"The challenger in this match is Mr. Jade Nightray who is the son of General Obsidian Nightray and Miss Ruby's own sister. The Jade master would fight by controlling his green color gear, Grock." this time the referee introduced Jade and his green gear to the entire audience.

The audience immediately gave a more frenetic reception for Jade. Various kinds of screams, applause and various other noises.

'Hehe's interesting, It seems like more support Jade than me...'

"Are you both ready?!! .... READY? ... YOOOO!!!" the referee gave a cue and fired a gun to mark the start of the match.
