As Kyon came to know, Juno"s level of development was at the 6th rank of the baseline. She was at the 5th only two weeks ago, though. He was at the 4th, but the critical factor was his stream (the total of the pure keys) which was 900% while the girl had only 290%, even though her talent and pure keys were a.s.sessed at the high end of the standard with 250%.

«I order... I allow you to attack me without weapons or any other accessories. It"s time you learned your place in our relations, and I will do that with my own hands, not some magic tricks,» – the guy said defiantly, taking up a fighting stance and pouring pure force into this body.

Juno"s eyes lit up with bloodl.u.s.t.

«The rest of your life won"t be enough to do it! Die now!» – She resolutely rushed to her former slave, eager to kill him as soon as possible. Previously, she fought with him only with the help of pure force, but now she decided to use her entire a.r.s.enal, that is, to use the element of wind, and the dangerous element of the ether in the battle.

In fact, Kyon was pretty concerned about his life and health; he blocked her first blow. As soon as Juno"s little fist touched his body, numerous bright sparks immediately flew into the guy.

*pah*

Kyon felt a powerful discharge equivalent to the impact of a stun gun. A dull pain pierced his whole body, the limbs stiffened up while shaking, everything turned dark and blurry.

Juno was already secretly celebrating her victory, she raised her fist for the second strike. Her opponent was stunned, the second blow was going to knock him out, and then she"d simply finish off the unconscious body. How great that her "master" was an arrogant fool!

«Please, stop!» - Kyon hurriedly blurted out, just in time to dodge from the next discharge.

«You little p.r.i.c.k… Arrr… I hate you!» – The girl growled with a childish insult in her voice and stomped her cute little foot. She was so close! But... The a.s.shole managed to give an order in defense.

«Please strike me with the same blow to the chest one more time,» – Kyon said in a slightly trembling voice.

The girl followed his order with a grimace of disgust, mumbling something along the lines of a "sick b.a.s.t.a.r.d" and "peculiar tastes."

*pah*

There was another crackling noise.

Electrical currents pa.s.sed through his body, making his hair standing on end; Kyon began to a.n.a.lyze the information he got during the sparring. He noticed that pure force was really a universal element. When he used it for protection, the impact of the discharge was lessened by about 60%. Pure force could absorb the attack depending on the power and potential of its owner, it never weakened the attacker or made the skin less electroconductive, all that had brought him to another conclusion: the ether bending is quite dangerous, especially if there"s an advantage in development. The solid barrier of ether is worth a lot, a technique that is a matter of priority among all the ether benders.


Kyon had thought things through and came to the conclusion that it was pure nonsense to fight with Juno under such circ.u.mstances. If only he makes one mistake and takes a blow, he"d lose consciousness at once, even if for a second. There is no guessing, the girl will make sure that he does not wake up anymore... It won"t do. He had to put off the victory (and another lesson of manners for his slave) until later.

«Please attack me using only pure force.»

«You must be kidding me!» – The young lady moaned frustrated and rushed to the attack at a more than double speed. Indeed, she was not that dangerous without wind and ether. She will need all her good luck to kill the opponent who was way more skilled in the technique of combat.

Kyon was delighted to discover that his speed of movement was a third faster than that of the average person, but there was another disquieting factor:

{Why am I inferior in speed to Juno? She is faster while the difference in our development is only 2 ranks.}

«Аааааh! You"re p.i.s.sing me off! If you"re so scared to fight with me properly, you"d better stop!» – Juno shouted in a fury.

Kyon only grinned with contempt, then meticulously questioned her how come she was moving so quickly; he soon found out (against her will, of course) that the girl had mastered a certain technique of the Stones movements. Roughly speaking, she used pure force in a unique way, which made her movements faster compared to the usual inflow of energy into the body.

Juno was angrily biting her lips until they bled but she had to reveal, under the influence of another order, that any technique of movement, just like any fighting technique, had its own rank: "E", "D", "C", "B", "A", " S ", where "S" is something unfathomable, it belonged to people"s dreams and fantasies, unimagined heights of excellence. The higher the rank, the more powerful and more efficient the technique, respectively, but at the same time it"s more difficult to master, the more difficult the path is to enlightenment.

It wasn"t for the first time that Kyon had heard about the rank system. Family members, workers, formacists, slaves, investigators, etc. are ranked in numbers, while techniques, formations, medicinal, unique bodies and everything that is not connected with people directly and has some physical value are ranked in letters.

Juno said that the Stones technique has a "B" rank, which is a good reason to be proud. With its help, one can make the pract.i.tioners of the same level lose due to a noticeable lag in speed.

{I"ve barely made the first step to becoming strong, and I already feel the importance of the influence, wealth and experience of the families... And... What to do? To study the technique of the Stones movements and then go mad with envy of opponents who use a better technique? Well, I do not think so…}

The guy decided to create his own movement technique. The masters and various simulations in the past world provided him with a complete package of knowledge about the ideal groups of movements of all parts of the body. He"d made a complete a.n.a.lysis of the neurons in the baseline of pure force which enabled him to carry out any experiments with the elements without any difficulties. His way of mastering pure force was different from how others usually did it... The fact is that other people could use the elements intuitively, without thinking, without a detailed a.n.a.lysis, as if according to a certain pre-learned program. But Kyon had taken the baseline apart totally and completely, therefore, he knew all the nuances in the smallest details, so that it was a piece of cake for him to study and create any technique. And the young man decided to take full advantage of his talents.

In the meantime, he needed to focus on the sparring to find out what else he was capable of.

Kyon ordered Juno to attack him again, clenched his fist, poured pure force inside, and then met at full speed the little fist of the bloodthirsty girl aiming at him.

*pam*

Two opposing pure forces collided with a quiet pop.

The impact of the counterstrike made Juno fly off by one meter, she squealed painfully, clutching at her hand trembling with recoil. Shocked big emerald eyes of the slave stared at the guy.

«It"s im-impossible... I"m two ranks higher... Why then... Why are you so strong?!»

Kyon laughed happily. He was pleased with the result, except that the speed and strength of his body left much to be desired. The maximum level of purity of his keys gave him a significant advantage. In the future, he"d find out that he was 5 ranks higher than an opponent with the standard purity of keys. With such an advantage, it was impossible for him to lose to someone with an equal level of development! In fact, based on the energy he produced, he was at the same level as a pract.i.tioner of the 9th rank, that is, five ranks higher than his own.

«Why are you laughing?! That"s not funny! I demand explanations!» – The girl exclaimed with displeasure, with her hands on her hips.

Kyon wiped away a tear of laughter. How pleasant it was to mock that arrogant creature.

«Oh, never mind. It"s just you are a mediocrity, and I am a real genius! Hhha!»

While the guy continued pus.h.i.+ng her b.u.t.tons, Juno could not get over the shock. She was a new rising star in the Stone family, the one who was intending to overtake the phenomenally talented Elsa, and she was dragged through the mud, she was called a mediocrity!

Her pretty face flushed with anger. She couldn"t possibly be weaker than a mongrel a.s.shole, who was two ranks below her! She could not! The girl clenched her fists till they hurt and with a fierce roar of an angry tiger cub, rushed into another reckless attack.

And again two pure forces collided... As a result, the young lady got thrown 5 steps away. Tears of pain and resentment welled up in the eyes of the loser. Her enemy seemed to surpa.s.s her in the amount of energy by at least three ranks.

The young man didn"t feel a thing from the collision, he was laughing again, mocking her.

A gaping hole grew in Juno"s heart: all her hopes, aspirations, and dreams weren"t worth a penny! All her expectations, a.s.sumptions, the claims of her masters that she was a real genius were nothing but a lie? The once insignificant half-dead slave had just defeated her! She could admit with some difficulty that he had risen two ranks in two weeks, but to believe that he exceeded her in pure force?!

Someone had stomped on the dignity of the haughty mistress, once again, and those were the legs of that disgusting giggling man. Confused thoughts were swarming through her head.

{Why? Why?! I... I"m no mediocrity! No no no!}

The girl turned pale from the anxiety; it seemed that the whole world at some point had become her enemy. At night she suddenly became a slave, and now her "master" exceeded her not only in the "position," but also in the force that she"d been so proud of until today!

«Well, well, well, what do we have here? It seems a talentless little girl wants to surrender and burst into tears?» - Kyon was gloating over her, not hiding the cold contempt for his victim.

Juno burned with hate and bitterness in her gaze the torturer standing in front of her. Her brain searched feverishly for a way out of that seemingly hopeless situation. She must have at least some benefits... Exactly, the speed! It was time to use the special family technique and win, otherwise, she"d never forgive herself for such a crus.h.i.+ng defeat.

The girl immediately rushed into battle.

Kyon chuckled merrily. {She is not a complete fool, after all, and not a crybaby... She was able to swallow her humiliation and even find strength for further resistance. I thought she was going to break down.}

When the young man tried to attack the slave, like it was the last time, she briskly jumped aside from the line of his strike. She understood perfectly well that she could no longer afford one more collision, otherwise, she"d simply get her hand injured. For the first time, she was dodging the guy"s blows: before that, she always used her usual aggressive style based on a fierce attack.

Even the pattern of her movements had noticeably changed - she got more flexible, with a better balance of her body, helped by the wind surrounding her slender figure. Juno used the element of the wind for protection, which, added to her impact half of the striking force.

And yet, a moment later, her side pierced a sharp pain from the opponent"s fist that had reached the goal.

The invisible translucent barrier of the ether went cracked, and then it burst, the girl was thrown about a meter aside.

Juno managed to dodge and stand on her feet, ignoring the new wound for her pride. The missing blow had an effect on her. The proud lady took a breath and with a fervent roar rushed into a new attack at the smiling guy, sending a message that she was not going to lose.

Kyon immediately realized that she decided to interpret his order literally - you cannot "attack" with the wind and the ether, but it doesn"t mean you can not "defend yourself." Indeed, her quirky mind had found another loophole in his order. He had to be careful and give more clear orders. Actually, he decided not to forbid her to block his attacks with the help of the elements: there was no point in fighting with a completely helpless victim.

About ten minutes of sparring pa.s.sed, it looked more like a fight to the death.

However, it looked so only for Juno. As for Kyon, he had missed out on all the drama, and it wasn"t hard to see why. When a golden-haired beauty raises her slender bare legs in silver sandals, her short gray skirt immediately lifts up and reveals to his eagle eyes exquisite snow white underwear. The young man thought at some point, the girl was using a smart mental attack. That kind of show would make Yegorka spurt out a b.l.o.o.d.y fountain of his nose.

He wanted to recklessly pounce on the cutie, pa.s.sionately grab her in his arms and bite to death for the slender curves of her captivating figure, for the pleasant and exciting aroma of her heated body, for her graceful body movements...

It was strange for him to realize he"d never had such acute and obsessive desires before, he"d never endured any discomfort. However, he could find a logical explanation to that: until recently, his life was constantly hanging by a thread, it could end at any moment; but now everything was different, henceforth he was the only master of his destiny, there was no pressure from the outside, and his feelings have found a way out. However, he had to keep in mind he still needed to consolidate his hold on power in the mansion. Therefore the former master of mankind was not going to ruin the hard-won results with trivial self-indulgence. Even though let"s face it, he really wanted to.

However, the seductive cutie did not even notice the masters" gaze, which he was very actively shooting at her body when she was doing spinning back kicks, somersaults or backflips. If only the naive lady knew that the look of her tough bottom in s.e.xy tight panties was better and way more effective than her most sophisticated fighting techniques... But alas, the only thing that she was worried about was victory, she was eager to defeat her mighty opponent in a fair fight, for she wanted to make sure the humiliating events of the previous night were never repeated.

Kyon wasn"t going to give up, the fight was not over yet.
