Chapter 436: Roselyn (1/2)

The next day, Kai and Sofia had arrived at the school. The building was similar to his school back in the US Base, but the scale was far larger as if it was for more students. The moment they entered, they found a giant field where many students actually fought against each other.

Right in front of him, the student took his breath away, not because of her beauty but due to her weapon.

”What's that?” Kai asked.

Sofia smiled and pointed at the white spider legs that were on her back. ”That's also a part of the exoskeleton. You can say it's the extension. If the exoskeleton is normally used to defend your body from incoming harm and boost your physical abilities, those legs can actually be controlled to move together with you and become your weapon.”

”Heh?” Kai narrowed his eyes as the technology piqued his interest.

”Can you see there is something on her neck, running through the back side of her cheek and connected to her head?”

Kai nodded. ”Yes.”

”That's connecting the legs to your brain. It will move according to the brainwaves. Of course, calculating your own brain waves is hard and needs so many trials and errors. Even that person needed around two years to reach this level of control.”

”You know her?” Kai asked.

”Yes. She is the escort that Arnaud talked about, you know.” She stuck her tongue out.

Kai took a step back and widened his eyes. He once again checked the girl.

She had long light blue hair tied into a ponytail to tidy it up. Her blue emotionless eyes showed that she couldn't be easily shaken by something, so Kai felt that this girl wouldn't talk too much.

At least, she wouldn't be so annoying.

The girl spun her sparring partner's body and struck her on the stomach, ending the match right there.

”Thank you, Roselyn. It seems I can't win against you today.” Her opponent chuckled as she fell on her butt. ”I'm tired.”

”No. You're already strong enough.” She shook her head.

Suddenly, killing intent spread around before moving to target her. She flinched, took a few steps back, and took out a shield while blocking the sides with her eight spider legs.

Raising her head, she found a male that perfectly fit the description Arnaud told her and instantly realized who he was.

'Seriously?' Roselyn gulped down, wondering if someone like this truly needed protection. In that killing intent, she literally felt as if Kai was in front of her, choking her neck.

Kai, on the contrary, never really used this type of move because he never felt the need to be in the US Base. But since the Union wanted to monitor him, she needed to be someone capable or else she would end up becoming his burden.

He didn't mind taking care of a few people in the US Base, but he had nothing to do with the EU Base other than Sofia, so he wanted to see this person's ability.

At the very least, she seemed to be sensitive enough to sense a killing intent from fifty meters away, so it should be enough for her to escape if he ordered her too.

'So, that's Kai Carter…' Roselyn took a few deep breaths and calmed her heart down. 'How many magical beasts has he killed? Few thousand? No, I believe it's already beyond tens of thousands… No way, is it really above one hundred thousand magical beasts?'

She wiped the sweats on her forehead and tidied up her appearance as she walked toward Kai Carter with a serious expression.

Her sparring partner was confused by her action, but it was answered when she saw Kai Carter staring at them from the school gate.

While waiting for her to arrive, Sofia decided to introduce the girl. ”She is the number three of this school. Because of her specialty as a defender with that shield you saw earlier, she has been nominated to escort you around.

”Her name is Roselyn. Well, you have been informed that our school doesn't have the US Base's group system, but we have something similar. To be honest, you are to search for a mission alone. The mission itself comes from the military, so there are many people who will come for that mission on the due date.
