Chapter 6 - Locker room

"Welcome to the E rank Training room!"

The room was filled with various of weapons, magic and even the martial arts. Despite of all the various is more into Basic stuff such as low tier magic book. moreover, on the left side — is a locker room for female, while the right side — is the male locker room. Nonetheless, The E rank training room is a bit advance as they have two training bots. However, the Bot is an outdated version.

 

And so, Lia slaps the head of the bot as she happily smiles and spoke.

 

"This is TB-1! It's the first version that been created in the 90s. And the successor for TB-2 and 3!"

"Furthermore, TB-1 has been code to be a well-trained with any kind of user and its ability!"

'Cool!'

 

However, Lia didn't tell her about the downside of TB-1. TB-1 has various flaws, The material that was used to made TB-1 is entirely heavy since the material it was used was: a Large Mana stone with size of a human heart, Tungsten, Copper and other more. Moreover, TB-1 used more energy within the containment of mana inside of the mana stone. 

 

However, TB-1 has a risk to explode or overheat that could cause a malfunction of the bots and cannot be control or in any other way. And it will likely to attack any hero in training to death even when the hero wants to surrender.

 

"Although... Have you told your agent to make your training suit?"

"No, I don't have any agent."

"Then how did you get your hero card?"

"Well, the agent that helped me was send by the boss..."

 

"Oh, that guy"

"What's wrong with him?"

"Nothing, we just think of him liked a friend"

 

"Oh, but why?"

"Despite of his serious face and tallness. He's a kind man; many otherworldly people become a hero was because of him. He has become an inspiration of kindness to us people."

"Ah, I see…"

"Anyway, you can use mine for a moment."

With that, she took out a key, a locker key, for her coins pouch.

"Take this with you, my locker is very easy to find. only if you have the courage to get it" as she giggles a bit.

 

"Okay...?"

And so, I walked toward the locker room. Once there, I stood beside the door of the locker room. As soon I tried to open, the felt of danger suddenly rushing in my body.

 

'What's going on with my body?!'

 

My very own body freeze by itself. As if, something inside the door could killed me.

The sense of dread keeping my body lock as I watch something coming out under the gap of the door. A cold shivering fear started to take my mind. How it didn't last that longer as once remember the word my mother has said.

"Fear... isn't something to be scared of. But something that we're grateful to have. Our live can't be balance if one of our emotions were gone. Be happy, calm that the god gave you the emotion." As I see the smile of my mother as she watches the scenery outside the window.

 

'Calm... Even if the situation is bad. Stay calm...'

At last, my body could finally move. As I open the door to see the normal locker room, I thought to myself.

'There wasn't any danger, thank goodness…'

I sigh with relief, but with no further ado. I walked inside the room, thinkingly nothing would change. Sadly, the room suddenly change for a small crack appearing for the wall before dispersing into the endless space. Moreover, Locker, plants, and benches suddenly been pull by the gravity to make a cluster of a moveable platform, while some were left floating in the endless space.

With that, I slowly to realised that I've been fooled once more.

'Huh?'

'Wha- wait am I even in the locker room?!'

 

Oh, how I've been fooled again by the normal image of the locker room. And yet, I am very disappointed of myself as I've been fooled not just in the dreams, but also in the real life...

Seeing as I must dealt with this mess, I muttered to myself. 'Yeah… I should leave…' but as I looked behind, the door was gone, disappear. 'Huh?' I start to blink as the door was gone for a thin air.

'How!? There was a door right here!'

With that, I looked at in front of me as I sigh with realisation.

'Fuck...'

 

***

'It's been 20 minutes… and all this idea is very stupid!'

Time has stopped, Since the clock hasn't move for 20 minutes. However, while I was sitting on the ground. I have gathered some ideas to escape this mess. But all of it, is very stupid! Some could lead me to death, while some could leave me in space forever!

With no hope left, I took Lia locker key out for my hoodie pocket. As I looked at the key, I suddenly remember the world that Lia has said to me. "Take this with you, my locker is very easy to find".

'Wait… That's it! Her locker!'

And so, I looked at the number of the key.

'The number nine… where could the locker be?'

Theirs is many lockers scattering around and cluster into a big and small moveable platform to. However, many lockers didn't have the number 9. And so, I looked around the place to find the locker with the number 9.

'Where could it be…?'

Suddenly, my was caught by a bright light.

'Ah! My eyes!'

As I rub my eyes, I looked at the place where I got flash by the bright light. That was when I saw the locker, the number nine locker. The furthers of many objects could float away.

'So far away?! How am I going over there!?'

And I though to myself, what if I could somehow jump off to the floating platform? And so, I've got an idea. There are many clusters of objects for plants, benches and locker. Some were small, while some was big.

'That's it!'

With the nearest cluster was small but needed to jump onto it, I slowly back away before I ran before jumping onto that small cluster. 'Here goes nothing!'

And so, I ran as fast as I can before jumping onto the small clump platform. Thankfully, I have successfully jump onto the small cluster. 'Nice!'

As the cluster slowly moving forward toward the locker. I tried to rest a bit before suddenly swallowed by a big cluster that was the size of a building. 'Are you kidding me!?'

They were 2 big clusters clashing to each other that disperse some object to me. As a locker moving forward to me, Ava suddenly appear as she said.

[I am back! :D]

[I hope I didn't miss anything important :D]

[By the way, where are we--]

"Ava looks behind you!"

[Behind me? --]

[OH CRAP!?]

[Activate Eternal Shield!]

And so, the shield appears quickly as it blocks the locker for hitting them. Ava was to be shocked by the sudden attack as her screen was seen to be having a shocking face. [Alice! Where even are we!? And how did you get into this situation!?]

[Eternal Shield] An ability that can and only be used by the screen. This ability can block and defend they user for any impact, piercing, spells, and other more. However, to use this ability, the screen needed to have the permissions for the readers. And if the screen used it without permission, it needed to give a reason and explanation of why it used it without permission.

Seeing her shocking expression, trying to explain to her is a bit difficult. But I'll try my best to explain how it happens. "Well, you see…"

***

After a brief explanation, Ava finally understands what I've has said to her. [So, you telling me, you've finally made a new friend? And She gave you to permission to use her training clothes? However, the training clothes was inside the locker room?]

"Yep!"

[… I think she's testing you…]

"And why that?"

[Well… If she didn't try to test your capabilities, you won't need to be in this hellish situation! >:O]

"…that make sense…"

[Now than, how do we get out of here?]

"Well, I supposed we could open her locker and maybe it could somehow bring this room back to normal?"

[That make sense]

"However, do you have any ability to somehow counter this room?"

[Well, I sense that this room been spells by her. But I do have the ability to bring the room back to normal]

"Cool, can we use it? –"

[…No, if I used it without the reader permission. I would be giving a warning! Or dead! If I used it without the reader permission as I must force myself to use the Eternal Shield]

'Oh… I almost killed my companion…'

[With that question out of the way, Where or what can we do now?]

Indeed, what can we do? The locker is still far away, but with this two-cluster blocking the path. I'll needed to climb my way up there. And so, I stand up as I looked at the two-cluster.

"Hey Ava, can you create a grappling hook?"

[Okay let me ask the reader for permission] and she left for a minutes before coming back with an answer.

[I've got the permission to do so! :D]

'Nice!'

And so, I inhale and exhale before I started to climb the cluster. As slowly climbing the cluster I kept on watch in any object that could fall apart easily. Because any mistake could lead to death. As I was near the top, one of the objects of the cluster fell apart and I was close enough to fall to my death as I was quickly enough to grab other object while Ava using his psychic power to hold me.

'Phew… so close to died single'.

And so, I continued to climb to the top. And finally, I have made it to the top of the cluster. As I was panting for air, I shout. "Thank God! We made it!"

[Hooray!]

[Hooray!] as she used the party pooper confetti.

"Now than…" As she straightly looked at the bright light that is Lia Locker.

"Ava, give the grappling hook".

[Yes sir! >:D]

And so, Ava gave her the grappling gun she needs.

"Nice!"

With the grappling gun in her hand, she aims the gun toward Lia locker as she looks carefully. Seeing as the cluster in which Lia locker stood on has a bench, she aims up. 'At this distance, perhaps this would work'.

And so, she shoots it. As the hook was high in the sky, in luckily land behind the bench. Then pull it, to make it hook on the bench. And so, she looked around to suddenly found a pole. 'This maybe a good place to attached it'.

as she has successfully hooked and attached it, she jumps with joy before being stop by Ava.

"At last! I've done it!"

[Nice! But how would you go down there?]

"Ah- "

'Right, I forgot about that part'.

Seeing as they weren't a single item to be used to slide down there. Alice with his thought Has found away. 'There isn't a single item around here…'

'What item can I used to go down there? --' 

'That's it! A belt!'

And so, she looked at ava.

"Hey Ava, can you create me a belt?" 

[A belt? Why?]

"Would you rather let me climb the rope?"

[Good answer]

With that, Ava gave her the belt to slide down on the rope. "Thanks!"

Before she slides down, she down to see the endless space. However, she calms herself down as she said. 'No need to worry!' 

With that, she grabs the belt on each side on the rope before running. "Here we go!"

And so, she ran before letting it slide down. With it working, she holds the belt tightly seeing as one wrong mistake could lead her to died. Once she lands on the other side, she could finally relief herself as she shouts.

"I did it!!!"

And so, Ava congratulates her with the confetti and spoke. [Hooray!! :D]

[You've done it!]

At last, she took the key out for her pocket before opening the locker. 'Here we go!' And so, she unlocks the door to see the room has gone back to normal. As she behind and saw the place has gone back to normal, she finally can Jump with tear of happiness.

'I did it!!!'
