My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—

"So strong," That's the only thing Satoshi could say as he watched Simon's masterful performance of dodging. Not only did he manage to avoid the connecting attack of Fuuka, but he also disrupted the forming blizzard with his magnetic forcefield. As usual, Satoshi still couldn't tell how he scaled such a distance in a short amount of time. The only thing he could think of was teleport, but as far as he knew, Simon never had a teleportation superpower.

"Ah... now I see it." A smile swept across Satoshi's face as he realized the sheer genius of Simon's new skill. He was using his magnetic field all along, but instead of repelling, he was attracting. The metal rods he placed all around the arena weren't there just for show, nor were they there just for a ritual. They were actually magnetic rods, and Simon adjusts his magnetic attractability in order to travel from one point to another at insanely high speeds. That, in and of itself, was something that no ordinary superhero could do, especially since it required the precise timing on when to stop, and at the same time the reaction speed to act as soon as the attraction stopped working. It's the same with super speed. If your reaction time can't keep up with your speed, then that's as fast as you could go.

And yet, Simon was traveling so fast as if he'd been teleporting. He had complete control over the timing, not to mention his intricate proficiency in his magnetic force field.

"This was all thanks to you, Satoshi. Every single time I saw you fight on television, you always have another ace up your sleeves. That's why I just had to climb up my superpower ladder and try to catch up to you." Simon tightened his core as he activated his magnetic force field once again. In a hundredth of a second, he appeared right in front of Fuuka, firing off a punch right at her cheek.

The attack came as a surprise for Fuuka but she was somehow expecting it so she was able to react just in time. Before the fist connected, she flicked her wrist and directed an oscillating sound wave that acted more like a shield instead of an attack. Simon's fist didn't connect, barely stopping a few millimeters away from Fuuka's cheek. It's as if there's an invisible barrier propped between the fist and Fuuka.

,m With no second to spare, Fuuka fired off a couple of spatial and sound wave attacks right at Simon, hoping that one of them would at least hit him. To her utter disappointment, however, Simon once again disappeared from where he was, reappearing in front of Shiroi before disappearing and reappearing behind her. The movement was so erratic that even Satoshi had a hard time keeping track of him. He was simply untouchable and unstoppable at the same time.

"I got this," Shiroi extended both her hands as she stepped back, bringing them forward in a sweeping motion as if she was drawing an x with both her cuts. From the force of her movement came a bone-chilling wave of ice, traveling towards the general area where Simon was.

With the wide area of effect attack, there was no way Simon could dodge it no matter how fast he was. His instant movements were limited inside the territory that the magnetic rods surrounded. And there was no way he could travel out of the arena because that would mean an instant defeat as per the rules of the stadium.

In any case, if he didn't dodge, then he'd take the full brunt of the attack. And there's only so much coldness his body could withstand.

Satoshi immediately gave a few orders to Nailgun, instructing it to shoot a couple of nails imbued with the element of fire. The barrage of nails simply melted the wave of ice, traveling through it and piercing the offensive and defensive attack of Shiroi. In turn, Shiroi had to jump sideways just to avoid the powerful nails that almost pierced her as well. Her movements canceled her area of effect attack, and what's more, they've been pushed to the edges of the arena due to the powerful force of the nails. Even Fuuka, who had been relying on sound wave traps and spatial traps to shield her from the attack, was pushed back as well.

After getting his bearings back, Simon flashed a thumbs up towards Satoshi. " Thanks for the save. I almost forfeited back then." He said before resuming his onslaught of attacks.

While Simon was taking on both Fuuka and Shiroi in the front lines, Satoshi just relaxed from behind, supporting Simon and defending him if need be. He didn't want to spoil Simon's opportunity to finally practice with two people from Class 3-1. He's going to support him, of course, but other than that Satoshi left him the job to defeat the two of them. If any chance Simon was backed into a corner, however, Satoshi would step in.

"Don't let your guard down," Satoshi called out to Simon just when he blinked towards Shiroi's rear once again.

Suddenly, Satoshi felt someone looking at him as if those eyes were burrowing a hole through his nape. He immediately jumped on his feet and turned around, thinking that someone or something was probably planning a sneak attack on him.

That's when he realized that Fuuka actually successfully sneaked behind him, using her sound and space manipulation to the best of her abilities to mask her presence. He didn't even realize that she was gone from where she stood a few moments ago. It's as if his eyes just accepted that she was out of the picture.

"Whoa~!" Satoshi almost fell backward as he dodged some of the invisible traps that Fuuka chucked at him. It was a miracle that he was able to dodge all of them before Nailgun caught him and flew him out of the danger zone. "That was close, real close," Satoshi said to himself, a sigh of relief escaping his mouth.
