RWBY/Sword Art Online (Discontinued)

Chapter 101: Kirito Vs Eugeo

Kirito and Eugeo's swords ignite as they charge toward each other, and chain swords.

Kirito: Why? Why did you lose to the Synthesis Ritual? I thought you trained to be a swordsman and leave Rulid to Centoria just to bring back your childhood friend, Alice!

Eugeo just ignored him as they both continue to whack each other with swords.

Kirito: Me and you never fought seriously before, haven't we? I've thought about it a lot as well. Which one of us would win if we really crossed swords? Honestly, I always thought you would surpass me one day. Well, here's something new I'd like to show you!

Kirito's feet light up as he kicks Eugeo's sword up to the ceiling. When he does, Kirito tries to strike him with a sword skill, but then, Eugeo quickly reacted, using a burst element sacred art, sending him flying back. Good news is that he got back up on his feet.

David: You ok?

Kirito: Yeah.

Alice: Is that person really your friend, Eugeo?

Jack: Come to think of it, this is the first time me and Adam are meeting him.

Amber: That's definitely him.

Kirito: Alice, didn't you say that Eugeo's already been synthesized?

Alice: That's true, but... I'm not sure how to say this, but for someone who just became an Integrity Knight, he seems too accustomed for battle. For instance, the incarnate arms skill he used earlier, as well as that aerial element skill just now, makes it hard to believe that he's a novice.

Evelyn: I bet that Administrator lady did something to buff him up.

Jack: Probably.

Eugeo uses the incarnate arms ability to bring the Blue Rose Sword back to him.

Adam: You want us to take him?

Kirito: No thanks.

Kirito looks at his black sword.

Kirito: I'm counting on you, partner. I promised to give you a name once this fight's over. Just lend me your strength. Let's go, Eugeo!

The fight continues as they keep whacking swords. Eventually, they strike each other's shoulders, and then, Kirito uses the sword skill, Sonic Leap, and Eugeo uses another sword skill to stop that move.

Kirito: Does that skill have a name?

Eugeo: Baltio Style. Storm Wave.

Kirito: That's Golgorosso's sword style. Do you remember who taught you that sword skill?

Eugeo: I don't know or care. She's the only one I need to know. It's for her sake that I take up my sword and live in order to defeat her enemies.

Kirito: There's no doubt about it. Just like Eldrie and Alice, Eugeo has...

Kirito remembers what Cardinal said about the Piety Module.

Kirito: Just what kind of memories can I think of that can take out the Piety Module? If I can just... No, words alone won't be enough to break Administrator's art. Whatever I infuse my sword with should reach his soul. And that's what I'm going to believe in.

They both separate from each other, and Kirito charges ahead at him.

Kirito: Eugeo! There are people precious to you! Selka, who's waiting back in Rulid for our return! Golgorosso and Liena, who instructed us at the Swordcraft Academy! Tiese and Ronie who have been worried about us right up until the moment we said goodbye! And overall, wasn't your wish to go back to Rulid with Alice?!
