Sis-Con with Dimensional Chat Group 832 Inter-Class Tournament 2

Ichika, Houki, and Cecilia stayed in the monitor room together with Maya and Chifuyu. They stayed together since they wanted to see the match better from this place.

Ichika was Chifuyu's little brother and it was very easy for him to ask permission to enter, especially with both Cecilia and Houki who were an IS Representative from England and Shinonono Tabane's little sister respectively.

"What is Rin's IS?" Ichika asked.

"Her Infinite Stratos is Shenlong. It's a close-quarter, melee type, just like Haru's Deathscythe Hell," Maya explained.

"But well, Haru is going to win in close-quarter combat!" Cecilia was confident in Haru's ability.

Houki didn't say anything, but she nodded.

"If it is that simple, then this match will end in a second, but ShenLong isn't that simple."

"What do you mean, Orimura-sensei?"

"Well, just watch."

No one knew what Chifuyu meant and could only watch the match between Haru and Rin which had just begun, however, they knew that this match would be interesting since it would be a match between close quarter combat IS.

---

Rin who was facing Haru had prepared, but she didn't expect Haru's speed to be very fast.

In just a moment, Haru was right in front of her and swung down his scythe at her.

BAAM!

The Ultimate Defense on her ShenLong protected Rin from the beam scythe, but it kept decreasing her energy and she knew if this continued then she might be in trouble. She swung down both of her blades at Haru, but he easily avoided it.

Haru, who had moved back, shot out a small Gatling gun on his side to Rin who was a few meters right in front of him.

Baam! Baam! Baam!

Bullet after bullet kept pouring decreasing the energy of Rin.

'This guy....!'

Rin thought that this guy was more troublesome than she had thought. She connected the two blades in her hands and spinning it around deflecting all of the bullets which were coming toward her. She flew once again at Haru to start close combat with him using her twin blades. Spinning her twin blades again, she swung it down very hard at Haru.

But it was easily dodged by Haru.

"What?!"

Rin was startled since Haru's movement was very fast then suddenly a scythe suddenly came struck down her side.

BAAAAM!!!!

Rin was thrown by the force of Haru's attack and created a large crater on the ground.

BAAAM!!!

'Damn!!!'

Rin had to admit that Haru was very strong, but it would be wrong if she decided to give up quickly. Looking at the energy of her Ultimate Defense which was originally 600 had decreased into 400 very quickly.

"Tch!"

"Rin-san, if you want to give up then do it quickly.'

Haru was in midair and felt quite uncomfortable bullying a little girl.

"Damn, don't look down on me!"

Rin stood up and the spherical device floating above each shoulder started to glow in a yellow light before shooting out something.

Haru frowned, but he hurriedly dodged that attack.

BOOOOM!!! BOOOOOM!!!

Two loud explosions happened right in his spot earlier.

"That is..."

Haru knew about those weapons since he had also gone to China in the past stealing the IS Core and the data of their IS which was known as Shenlong.

Shenlong also is known as Koryu, is a Close-Combat 3rd Generation type provided by the Chinese government. It is optimized for CQC. It has two abilities which are known as Souten Gagetsu and Ryuhou.

Souten Gagetsu is a pair of Chinese scimitar which could be combined to double-bladed form with blades on both ends and the hilt between them. It was also a weapon that was used by Rin to fight against Haru earlier in close combat.

Ryuhou or Impact Cannon, is a state-of-the-art Impact/Shock Cannon utilizing third-generation technology, a spherical device floating above each shoulder that forms a barrel by compressing nearby space and shooting out a linear-trajectory shockwave like an invisible projectile. It is, however, damaging to the cannon and user if fired at point-blank range.

Haru knew that it was a very interesting weapon, but its power was quite weak if it was shot from a distance and its power could only be shown from a close distance. He didn't need to build such a thing on his IS since it was useless for him.

In his opinion, a long-range weapon that has lost the ability to shoot from a distance is useless.

Haru thought that Cecilia's sniper rifle was better than Impact Cannon's of Rin.

Rin flew up again to Haru and started to attack him continuously using her Souten Gagetsu which had been combined into one. Spinning it around and attacking him with the very fast movement since she knew that once she was in close combat she could sneak attack him with her Impact Cannon.

However, Rin didn't expect the moment she tried to get close, Haru also got closer to her. He swung his scythe and destroyed one of her Impact Cannons.

BAAANG!!

"Uwaaaaa!!!!"

Rin was startled, but she saw a chance to shoot him down with her other Impact Cannon.

"You've been caught!"

Rin's eyes were excited since she thought that she had trapped him.

"You know the disadvantage of your cannon is obvious..."

Swinging down his scythe, Haru had destroyed all of Rin's Impact Cannon.

"It takes a few seconds to prepare and it is very easy to counter."

"Don't look down on me!"

Rin was annoyed since her two trump cards had been destroyed and she swung down her dual-blade wildly.

However, Haru was very relaxed and slowly decreasing her energy until it hit the red mark.

---

In the monitor room.

Everyone who looked at the match couldn't help but gawk at how easy it was for him to defeat Rin.

"Haru is the winner, right?" Cecilia seemed quite proud at that moment.

Houki nodded and didn't seem that surprised.

"Why is he that strong?" Ichika was confused. He had been training together with Haru, but he felt that he couldn't reach Haru's strength.

".........."

Chifuyu thought that she had underestimated Haru, and it seemed that he also understood Rin's IS ability which made it very easy for him to defeat her. She knew that Rin didn't have a chance to win against Haru after both of her Impact Cannon had been destroyed since she didn't think that Rin was able to fight against him using only a dual-bladed.

"Well, it seems the winner has been decided."

Everyone agreed with Chifuyu's statement and the champion of the Inter-Class Tournament had been decided early.

---

Looking at the battle which happened in front of them, the high ranking from various countries and organizations knew that the winner had been decided.

"Hyaaaa!!!"

Rin swung down her dual-blade, but it was countered by Haru by using the blunt part of his scythe to slam it at her head.

BAAAM!!

'Damn!'

Rin couldn't see her chance to win this battle and sigh, but she also didn't want to lose this easily. She charged toward him again, but this time she didn't have a chance since Haru rained her down with several strikes from his scythe.

Baam! Baam! Baam!

Her energy kept decreasing and there were only 10 points left.

'I lost...?'

Rin couldn't accept it for a while and saw a scythe which was about to strike her down suddenly stopped.

"Huh?"

Rin looked at Haru who was looking toward the sky and thought that he ignored her. "Bastard, don't ignore! Just defeat me quickly! Don't look down on me like this!"

"Shhh!"

Haru told her to be quiet with a gesture.

Rin didn't understand Haru's meaning and became angry, but suddenly the barrier of the arena dome was destroyed by a powerful purple beam.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!!

A loud explosion happened in the middle of the arena causing a powerful shockwave that shocked the surroundings.

"W - What's happening?" Rin was confused.

"It's an enemy."

From the middle of the explosion there was an unidentified IS that suddenly appeared and locked at both of them. They knew very well that this thing wasn't a friend, rather an enemy which was coming without a good intention.
