Ichi 0 Posted September 8, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Near a local waterfall, there were bamboos and some boulders that were convenient enough to serve as Ichi's training dummies. Standing naked in front of the boulder as the moonlight bathed his entire body, Ichi then began kicking the rock with his iconic semi-metallic shoe, boring a hole into the solid surface thanks to the strength of his legs. He repeated the procedure, each sound louder than the former, the same goes to the intensity of his kicks, until that part of the boulder was finally chunked off. The muscles of Ichi's leg tightened as he was getting excited to kill a pair of recently well known murderers. With the boulder done, he pulls of the safety pin at his right shoe and faces a bamboo. Slamming the shoe's toe against the ground, the heel blade protrudes from its heel and immediately, he starts slicing it to pieces like a knife, before turning to another bamboo, lift up his leg, and drops his heel through the bamboo, splitting it in half. He was ready. Aincrad, present. Today. Ichi is kicking a boulder in the fields in the same way as he did on Earth, except this time, he is donning only his boxers, and he wears no shoes. Instead he relies on the strength of his leg to bore holes through the hard surface, though he is aware that...he will have to use his weapons and equipment to fight of monsters and people for now. His martial art would have to be used as a final move or something...if it wants to be in good use in Aincrad. Field's quite breezy, and his body feels cool despite his intense training. @Ruby Link to post Share on other sites
Ruby 0 Posted September 8, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 8, 2017 While Ruby has been on this floor numerous times, she had felt a little more at ease lately due to the help of her new found friend Birdie as she had helped her out by giving her items after the incident she had come across earlier in her life here in Aincrad, she didn't really ponder upon it much, however she was very grateful for her help. And while she kind of has no business to be on this floor after the completion of Long Live the Queen in her own time, it wouldn't hurt to get another one of those items drops, never know... it could be useful down the road. Very recently she had joined forces with Knights of the Blood, as shown with her new fancy red and white clothing. She had walked down the pathways of the second floor to eventually find something, she had found a player splitting bamboo, she placed a hand on her hip as she had shook her head a bit, to her there was no reason at all to be doing something like that, however she wasn't going to judge someone for what they do in their free time. @Ichi Link to post Share on other sites
Ichi 0 Posted September 8, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) A few minutes have passed and Ichi has smashed another boulder with more, rapid kicks and his notable heel drop, which immediately bore a hole at the top of the rock. He pants heavily as he settles down, his face is usually timid and kind, or nervous at some occasions. But during training, he would smile like an innocent kid, sometimes grinning like a sadist. In fights or murders, he would be serious, but that would be where he shows no mercy and yell like a manchild. As he lets out a satisfactory sigh, he is about to stand at ease when he turns his head towards your direction, eyes towards you in a way that a deer would look at an incoming car with its headlights on. After no more than a few seconds of dumbfounded stares, he notices that he is still in his boxers, and quickly bows down as says, "I..I'm sorry. D..did my appearance offended you? Let me wear back my clothes and armor quickly!" @Ruby Edited September 8, 2017 by Ichi Link to post Share on other sites
Ruby 0 Posted September 8, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Ruby had shook her head "No, I don't care what you wear. Do as you please, I am not the boss of you." she had said to him as he had looked back to him and gave that gesture towards her. She had looked over to the side and let out a sigh "Please just for the love of god, don't let this be a case where this guy after one day falls in love with me. Its bad enough that guys what to actually date me." then she had looked back to him and said out to him with a smile "What? No introduction, no hi how are you? Just worried that what you are doing might offend me in any way shape or form?" she moved her arms to cross and said with a click of her tongue and shaking her head "Man you guys don't know how to introduce themselves." she had chuckled a bit and reverted her gaze back to the man "What brings you out here destroying perfectly good materials anyways stranger?" @Ichi Link to post Share on other sites
Ichi 0 Posted September 8, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted September 8, 2017 As Ichi is wearing a simple, black shirt and pants, he hears your words and jogs towards you so he can engage in conversation. Looking at you, he says in response, "Well, I am just training, that's all, even though I know I can't attack with just my legs now, not like on Earth. Want to see?" And with that, he begins to kick the air rapidly at his side, imagining himself mortally beating up a person as his facial expression shifts to a serious one. After that, he does a leg sweep before doing a roundhouse kick, which that alone, with the combination of his metallic shoes for maximum efficiency, is capable of breaking the face inwardly like a medieval mace. The roundhouse kick ends with his leg barely touching your face, and there he actually stops completely before he can even hit you. "That's how I do it, and they will be gone in a jiffy," says Ichi as he smiles brightly, then slowly, his leg retreats from your face and goes back onto the ground. He bows again for a short moment and continues with his introduction. "I'm Ichi Kakihara, level 3. It's nice to meet you. I'm currently looking for this...wasp queen an NPC told about to me." @Ruby Link to post Share on other sites
Ruby 0 Posted September 8, 2017 #6 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Ruby did not like his display at all trying to show off his own power, Ruby has slapped his foot out of her vision of sight and looked at him with a angered expression "I full heartily suggest that you shouldn't do that again, first off you asked and did it anyways I don't respect that, not at all. And second its common suggestion that you don't attack people in this world. People would take it the wrong way, or simply you'll do it to the wrong person and they'll kick your ass." she knew that eventually with an action like that, it wont impress some people, matter of fact some people might think that he's actually attempting to attack them. Its a simple thing to follow in this world, just don't attack people even if its showing off their power. "I suppose its nice to meet you, even though we are on the wrong track. I know where the wasp queen is, but however I don't recommend you go fighting bosses wearing literally nothing." @Ichi Link to post Share on other sites
Ichi 0 Posted September 8, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted September 8, 2017 "S..sorry...I was getting too far ahead of myself," Ichi says as he hears your warning and just remembers that mistrust is a big deal in Aincrad, especially since winning takes higher levels, stronger equipment, etc. It is no longer like real life, and that is sad. But it is a harsh truth regardless. "Not to worry, I have decent armor and weapon...well...I'm supposed to get a new sword but, I haven't heard anything from the owner yet.." he explains in a sad tone, though he is still patient to wait for her presence in the shop...or having enough money to buy a new sword immediately. He then equips his armor from his inventory and dons the double silver breastplate, followed by his pauldrons. As he feels the wind blowing around him, he feels ready. "Let's go find the queen bee, shall we?" Ichi says as he smiles again, equipping his iron sword before staring to walk towards the supposed location of the bee's liar. @Ruby Link to post Share on other sites
