《Insignia》"The Phantom" Ch 81. Luna, Hiro, and the day before
Advertisement
Red: Was that supposed to make me feel better?
Kota: Ehe, sorry about that. Either way, it's not a lost cause. I am the water saint afterall.
--- Chapter 81 ---
Within the mountains, Hiro arrives up north. An older gentleman is at the top awaiting his arrival.
Hiro: Hey master Aibek.
Aibek: Welcome Hiro.
The door to the small temple slides open, and Sole walks out wearing only shorts and sandals. He’s drying his hair with a towel.
Sole: Oh, hey Hiro.
Hiro: Hey man, it's been a bit.
Sole: Yah, good luck on your training. Master Aibek is incredible with swords. And he knows a lot about Sataro’s.
Hiro: Right, I knew he’d be good. He managed to teach you after all.
Sole: Haha, true. Well, good luck again.
Hiro: Thanks haha.
Sole walks over to the cliff side and sits criss-cross and begins meditation. Hiro summons his blade and begins sword fighting with Aibek. Back in the guild hall, Luna sits in the center of a circle, with Gadreel in front of her. Tilda and the master are there spectating.
Luna: You ready Gadreel?
Gadreel: Mhm, you got it boss!
Luna: Good, now say it with me.
Luna+Gadreel: Oh great spirits, I contact thee, come forth and state your offer, and form a contract under the name of the great gates.
Moments pass in silence.
Luna: Man, it looks like I messed up again.
But as she finishes, A poof of smoke appears, revealing a man with an incredible amount of muscle, made of pure steel. While he looks naked, there are no “parts”.
Luna: Woah, what are… no, who are you?!
Steel man: You! Can call me Mr. Invincible!
Luna: Mister… Invincible?
Mr. Invincible: Yes indeed!
Luna: Anyway, what can you do?
Mr.Invincible: I! Am invincible!

Luna: So you're just invincible?
Mr.Invincible: Indeed! Completely and utterly impervious to any attack!
Luna: I see, so what's the catch, what do you want from me?
Mr.Invincible: Just to gaze upon you beauty mam!
Luna: … Yah it's a no from me.
Gadreel: WAIT! Think about it! That's a pretty ok deal for someone who's invincible, or any spirit really.
Luna: I guess. Fine, I accept your proposal, now may we seal this pact in blood.
Mr.Invincible: Mam, I cannot do that.
Luna: What? Why?
Mr.Invincible: I'm invincible! There is no possible way to draw blood from myself mam. Because, I'm invincible!
Luna: You really are huh? I see, well then a handshake should suffice.
They shake hands and he puffs into smoke. Luna turns her head to master and Tilda with a big smile. Tilda and Luna run toward each other. Tilda jumps up into a big hug with Luna, and they start spinning, Tildas legs flying back.. Apparent that they had grown quite close over all the time training.
Luna: I did it!
Tilda: Yahaha!
Luna sets Tilda down.
Master: Very good Luna.
Luna: Thanks master.
And Just like that, three months passed in a flash. Everyone gathered at the guildhall a few days before we left. Since Red was still here I saw him, but we barely spoke. We were both so exhausted by the end of the day, all we could really manage was a wave. Plus, we are enemies temporarily. Either way, I’m very nervous. I acquired some summons, but will it be enough to take on Red or Hiro? Plus, they definitely got stronger, and I'm comparing myself to what they were. Hell, there might be people stronger than both of them combined. Gah, why am I worrying. I’ll be fine, right? Love you, mom, dad. Wish me luck for tomorrow.

Many Minded
Synopsis: Issa Pyxis, Spacer orphan and illegal heretic, graduated from living on the streets to running with a gang years ago, but now it looks like that’s all going to change. Her inheritance, more specifically who—or what—she is, is catching up with her, and on a planet with the Emperor’s inquisitors slinking around in every shadow, nowhere is safe and no one can be trusted. What will she do? A cyberpunk story about identity, loneliness, covert infiltration, evil dystopias, and much more! Features: - Cyborgs and cyberpunk galore - This is indented to be somewhat “rational” and “hard” Sci-Fi story - Original Fiction however parts of my worldbuilding are inspired by other Sci-Fi stories (duh) Rationale: The future is cool, AIs are kickass, and questions about consciousness are simultaneously existential and yet unanswered. To me, this story is a vehicle for exploring these topics, and also, I wanted to write a story where the protagonist was unafraid of themselves and where their self is more like a git-repo than a meat computer. Disclaimer: This story primarily takes place in what we’d describe as a “cyberpunk dystopia” with some extra technocracy, autocracy, and religious fervor thrown into the mix, so there will be some “grittiness” in this story. Caveat emptor. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character and other characters in my story can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way they view the world isn’t always objective truth (if such a thing even exists) nor do their views and opinions necessarily reflect the views of me, the author. Cover art by me! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
