Southern Entrance To The Kendo Dungeon.
"It doesn't matter who stays back, I just need one person in front with me. We'll capture the other zones before they can even blink!" Korimer said hyping up his teammates.
"Senior Korimer, let me come with you then" Kutote said, to which Korimer nodded in agreement.
"Cheim Nell, you and Konacho are the shields. Protect Illiopo. Illiopo, I expect you can handle yourself should they fail or get overwhelmed"
"I've got this side of things covered Senior Korimer"
"Great! Let's start this then!!" Korimer said grabbing hold of Kutote, placing his fingers on his forehead he spread his SE outward creating a sensory map only he could see. Then he said it, his prey!
"Got it, Kutote hope you remember the skill I taught you?"
"Yeah, I do"
"Great! Lock in these set of coordinates, when I give the word take us there. Lat. 32 Long. 16 bound Southeast at 27°... Now!" Korimer said his eyes still closed. And immediately Kutote snapped them away.
The two appeared just above two trainees from Marcellonia: Jvocik and Xvian. Landing with a this. The two Marcellonia trainees spun around to see who had snuck up on them.
Recognizing the ace of Four Stars Academy, Jvocik hissed and quickly brought out a scroll from his bag on his hip.
Dropping it on the ground he bit his fingers and spead his blood over the scroll.
A hiss erupted as a rune cast spread around him.

"And Jvocik whips out a scroll? Is that really a summoning scroll!" Keel Kun roared from the commentators box. In the platform above Sensei Pwain and Meris Veyna who were still flirting with each other looked at the screen intently.
"So you have one of those as well, a beast tamer."
A beast tamer as a beast walker are two different techniques that originate from the same history. Man becomes one with his summon. Gaining strength to turn the world at his command.
However the two diverge in their applications, a beast walker assumes the traits of his soul linked beast. This soul linked beast is a spiritual beast his family signed a contract with. Allowing the user to have the strength of the beasts.
But a beast tamer is different he summons the spiritual beast into the physical realm. He uses it to fight for and defend him. This summoned beast is also acquired through family lineage but can also be acquired if the spiritual beast see you worthy.
Therefore between the two already rare techniques, beast tamers are even more rare.
"Yes. I found him in an orphanage on the mainland. A victim of a demonic beast wave. I took him back with me when I returned to Marcellonia."
***
The hissing rose in intensity as a being begun taking form in front of them.
"Kutote, handle the other guy. I'll take the beast tamer."
"Got it." Kutote said and jumped into action, using his copied technique: Glaze Feets he shot towards Xvian. His hand ablaze with another copied technique: Resendo.
Xvian frowned as he realized he was being somewhat underestimated. Grabbing hold of his right thumb he pulled his bone out completely. However the thumb bone stretched till a bone whip about three meters long was formed. The end of the whip was sharpened for instant decapitation.
Thwat!!
The sounds made as the bone whip hit Kutote's flaming hands crawled across the dungeon. It seemed even the beasts were afraid.
"Icicle Spike!" Kutote said and shot an ice spikeout of his other hand at Xvian which dodge just in time. As he landed Kutote used another one of his copied skills, one he had just gotten his hands on: Warrpole, causing the area around and below Xvian to turn into quicksand.

Back in the stadium...
"What is this! Kutote keeps whipping out different techniques without end. Isn't he just showing off at this point!" Keel Kun roared from the commentators box.
Gerald Stecham watched in shock as he watched from the crowd. That was the technique of the Marcellonia b*tch. He couldn't help but wander how it had ended up in Kutote's hands.
In the VIP section above, Sensei Pwain who had progressed in his flirting and had a hand coaching up her laps frowned. That kid wasn't being careful! Showing off his ability like that was careless. Especially since even the guys he'd escaped from were here.
His gaze wandered to Corinth Ransthrol who was seated besides a smaller hooded man. Headmaster Kime had warned him to keep an eye out for Corinth and the High Priest of Brandish: Namor.
"It seems, I have to excuse myself Veyna. There is something I must take care of. I will return soon." Sensei Pwain said standing up still hoping to get some later that night.
"No problem. I'll be right over here" She said with a cherry smile. Though she wasn't intoxicated enough not to miss his subtle glances at Corinth and the Brandish High priest.
"Something is up, I just don't know what." she murmured to herself as she beckoned the bartender.
Pwain moved quickly. Navigating through the fleet of rows till he reached where Corinth and Absolam sat. Deciding to plant himself in their midst he walked towards them.
"Lord Corinth? I am right aren't I?" Pwain asked like he didn't already know.
"Depends. Who is asking?"
"I am Sylvester Pwain."
"Oh! The fabled sword saint! Rumors are that you were retired. I hadn't expected to see you here" Corinth said with a gasp. And reached out to shake Pwain's already outstretched hand.
"Yes well. I owe the legend Kime a few favors. He decided to check them in. Ending my six year retirement. It has been a pleasure seeing you again."
"Indeed, I believe it has been about twelve years since we last me—"
"Corinth. Mind your manners. You shouldn't be so rude. Introduce me to the sword saint" the hodded man said stepping forward.
"Of course! I apologize. Sword saint Pwain meet Lord Absolam of Logue town. He is also the last surviving member of the Archem Knights! But you already knew that didn't you, Sensei Pwain?" Corinth asked.
