Kenshi, The Spirit Swordsman

Chapter 10

-10/20/20XX; Floor 75: Collinia-

Right now, I am getting ready for my duel against Heathcliff with my friends here.

Asuna: You're such an idiot! Why would you do that?!

Kenshi: Calm down, bruh. It's not like I have another option for this.

Asuna: You too, Kirito! I can't believe you would make a deal like that!

_____

Kirito: If he lose and he has to join your guild,... then I will join with him too.

Kenshi/Asuna/Shin: WHAT?!

Heathcliff: Huh. Okay then.

_____

Kirito: Well, I don't want to let him to help you alone.

Asuna: Oh, and why is that?

Kirito: Um, I uh....

Kenshi/Shin: (He likes you, that's why.)

Asuna: Anyway, when I saw Kenshi's dual-wielding the other day, I thought his strength was on another level. But the commander has a unique skill too...

Shin: Yeah. We've seen it several times. Divine Blade. It maximizes attack and defense power. The attack is strong, but that defense is incredible.

Asuna: No one has ever seen his HP bar fall into the yellow zone. It's completely overpowered.

Kenshi: I know.

Asuna: What'll you do? If you lose, not only is my leave denied, but you and Kirito will have to join the Knights of Blood Oath.

Kenshi: Well, I don't plan to lose that easily.

Now, it's time for me to have a duel.

Shin: Good luck, bro.

Kirito: Yeah! And trust in the Heart of your friends!

Kenshi: Heart of my what?

Kirito: Heart of your friends. You know, friendship power and stuff like that will help you win.

Kenshi: But that's only happens in anime. Whatever. If Yugi can do it then I can too.

Just trust in the Heart of my friends and let it guide me.

So, I already have my duel with Heathcliff and guess what? I lost. Funny thing, really. I was sure that I had him at that time but he suddenly dodged it faster than The Flash and that's why I lost. It's not like I'm angry or anything.

And now we have to wear this...outfit.

Kenshi: Heart of my friends? More like Heart of my ass.

Kirito: I don't think I wanna believe in that.

Asuna: You guys look good, especially Kenshi since he always wear white.

Kirito: A guild, huh?

Asuna: I guess I dragged you two into this, huh?

Kenshi: No shit, Sherlock.

Kirito: Well, this is a good chance. I was reaching the limits of what a solo player could do.
