The Undying Mecha Emperor-Chapter 260 Getting Serious

Like a Goddess of Death in some anime-based game, Emma spun in midair with her twin swords stretched forward towards me.

It made for a very, very ferocious attack, one that would definitely deal a killing blow if it hits.

IF it hits.

It was an extremely big if, because such a wild attack was not only easily dodged, it was also very taxing on the attacker and could be disrupted with relative ease.

Just spin your body round and round ten times at extremely high speed, and you'll probably have a rough understanding of how it would feel to execute such a reckless and wild attack.

I have no idea why she would attack me using that particular attack sequence. Maybe she watched too much anime the night before.

Gifted kids and their relaxed schedules.

Sigh.

But anyhow, after being surprised for a split second, I instinctively reacted to disrupt her attack using the simplest possible method - by flinging a mecha towards her and forcing her to either crash into it or abort her attack. Both of which would place her in a very off balance and disadvantaged position.

I grabbed at the nearest mecha next to me and heaved.

"Gahhh!!!"

The mecha not only did not budge, he also launched a fearsome attack at me.

I had forgotten that I had depowered my mecha!

"Sheeeeeeeett!!!" I cursed loudly as my brain went into overdrive to deal with the massive crisis I was facing.

In front of me was Emma with her ridiculous spinning attack, and to my right was a stupid enemy grunt attacking me with his war hammer!

What else could I do?

I modified my original plan of picking up the heavy mecha and tossing it towards Emma, and spun my body around to get behind it.

"If I can't toss you, then I'll use you as a shield!" I thought to myself as I successfully executed my complex maneuver.

BAAAMMM!!!

Emma smashed into the heavy mecha and smashed it to pieces.

"HEY!! Why the hell are you so strong??" I shouted at Emma as I scrambled away from the heavy mecha which was falling apart right in front of me!

"Hmph! Stop hiding behind others and fight me!" Emma shouted as she flung the cockpit of the ruined heavy mecha away.

The poor pilot.

He or she must have pissed in his or her pants in fear.

But I had no time to worry about piss in pants.

Emma was displaying a strength way beyond that of a practice mecha!!

"Don't tell me… Her experimental mecha core is… active?!" I thought with great excitement.

Without hesitation, I raised the strength of my practice mecha to that of a weak blue mecha, a Baron.

Just in time.

Emma charged at me and unleashed a flurry of hyper fast sword strikes that I was barely able to block with my enhanced speed.

Bam bam bam bam bam!!

After five exchanges, I realized that her strength was around that of a standard blue mecha, a Viscount.

But her speed…

It was insane.

She was fast!!

Much too fast for a normal blue mecha, faster than even a standard white mecha!!

"What the hell?" I cursed as I continuously and shamelessly raised my power just to be able to match her speed. "How are you so bloody fast?"

Bam bam bam bam!!

Five hits became fifty as our high speed exchange continued on.

"Hmph! You think you're the only special one? Let me teach you a lesson! There is always a higher mountain! And in your case, ME!" Emma shouted eagerly, the excitement in her voice betraying the sharpness of her words and revealed to me that even for her, all these were pretty new.

Emma increased her speed once more. And not just that, she started to move in a strange but extremely efficient manner that allowed her to efficiently and with the greatest strength, unload a series of attacks that was aimed accurately at my weak points!

I was completely overwhelmed by then.

Out of ten attacks, I was probably able to block only eight. And as the seconds ticked into minutes, that number dropped further and further down to six, then five.

By five minutes into the fight, her momentum had snowballed so massively that I was only able to block half her attacks!!

If I wasn't so shameless as to raise my power once more to that of a white mecha, I would have definitely lost then!

In terms of skill, I was completely outmatched!

Still, even with my serious deficiency in fighting skills, I could easily see that Emma was in a state of hyper excitement.

Her attacks, though deadly fast and fatally accurate, would be twice as deadly if she was to calm down and pick her targets properly.

"It must have been a recent awakening. Let me see if I can infuse my power on her and control her." I thought to myself as a brilliant idea struck me.

WHAM!!

I darted forward as she was unleashing a down swing and grabbed hold of her arm.

In that instant, I pumped a massive amount of my red energy into her mecha, seeking to inundate her with my power and gain complete control of her as I did the other mechas.

But to my surprise, my red mecha energy rebounded from her mecha the way water splashes around a car after being sprayed by a high powered hose!!

Well, maybe not quite.

It was closer to an explosive magnetic repulsion by two powerful electromagnets.

WWHAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!

Both of us were flung in opposite directions with extreme force!!

BAM!!

I landed heavily on my ass.

Emma, being much more agile and gifted in terms of movement techniques, managed to right herself in the air and somehow land quite impressively on her feet.

"HOOORRRRAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!"

The entire battlefield suddenly erupted with a great resounding cheer!

Without us realizing it, the battle had stopped, and almost everyone had their eyes on us.

And even though every single one of them had no idea what happened, the fact that I landed very heavily on my butt, and Emma landed beautifully on her feet like a gymnast could only mean one thing.

She won the exchange!

"WEAK ASS FIRST GRADER! THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR CHALLENGING OLDER KIDS! DIE!" Shouted an extremely emotional senior boy.

"He is fighting Emma Whitefrost. She is only eight years old." A kind hearted soul corrected his erroneous sentence and caused him to probably fall into depression.

"All hail the gifted program!! We are the best! We are the strongest!! HUZZAAHHH!!!"

"Hahahahaha! Finally! A real fight between two geniuses!! Awesome! Epic!! I love it! Fight more!!"

Along with the eruption of shouts from my enemies, my allies made sure to let their thoughts be heard by me too.

"Hey, don't tell me you're losing to a little girl? Damn it! Did I choose to follow the wrong person?" James shouted loudly into my comm device.

"Hohoho. You're losing to a girl. Girls rule." Elise Wang very casually and happily gave me a verbal kick when I was down.

"Weak. My shi fu would never lose like you!" Eliana Wang shouted with extreme bias and subjectivity. fre𝑒𝘸𝚎𝚋n૦ѵℯl.c𝒐𝘮

"Sigh. You are still so green in fighting. Tsk tsk." Olivia Summers tsk tsked at me.

"Don't get caught up in matching her speed. Focus on your strengths." Margaret advised me.

"Finally a constructive feedback! All you guys are so useless! Are you even on my side?" I cursed at them all as I slowly got up and started to think on Margaret's words.

"Focus on my strengths. My strength is… my cheat code. That's right. Why the hell am I depowering myself? My ability to power myself up is my strength!! There is no need to be ashamed of what I have! There is no such thing as fairness in battle!! Even if its against Emma… No. ESPECIALLY if its against Emma! Giving her special treatment is disrespecting her as a fellow dragon!" I thought as I finally woke up from my delusions of being a fake ass gentleman.

"Alright Ems. Enough playing around. I will show you my real power now." I growled.

Without changing form, I strengthened myself to the strongest level I could physically achieve at that moment.

Whoosh.

I became so powerful that a repressive aura surged out from my mecha and silenced every single one on the battlefield.

Shingggggggggggg.

The sudden absence of sound from almost ten thousand mechas on the battlefield created a ringing silence that was no less deafening than the roar of thousands.

Boom.

I entered the basic stance of fighting and levelled my spear towards her.

Whoosh!!!

Gulp.

I could almost hear the thousands of throats gulping in nervousness as my aura sublimed and turned sharp into a killing intent.

"Good. You're finally serious. I will be serious too then." Emma said softly as her voice thundered around the battlefield.

Whoosh!!!

An aura no less impressive than mine surged out from Emma at that moment!
