Harem In The Intergalactic Apocalypse

I started to run at them, but they were already a growing mound of molten lava that was growing upwards at a ridiculous rate. I threw my great blade at the growing mass, but it just sank into it, and I ripped it back, slowing down.

"Daniel!"

Firaga ran up from behind me, up beside me, making me come to a stop. We were about thirty feet away, but the heat was intense even from this far.

"Take this," I said, handing Firaga the Chimera blade, but she pushed it back.

"I can fight this one; you just sit back and watch!" Firaga said that as she started to glow, I had to jump back from her because my skin had started to sizzle.

The giant lava-covered man finished forming and blasted a beam of hot lava directly at Firaga. She only put a hand up to block it, and the lava splashed off it but then sucked back in like when she made my sword.

That was when I noticed that all the bodies were gone around me.

I looked back to see Firaga creating a giant bubble of magma in front of her hand, the beam just making it more immense. Chunks of dirt, rock and other impurities dropped as the giant fireman stopped.

"Why are you siding with the Hero?" Boomed the burning man.

Firaga had used her other hand to create an anvil and was holding her hammer. The blob dropped, and Firaga smashed her hammer down into the anvil.

The blob of red hot metal splashed out but instantly became blue and transparent like water before rushing back in. Firaga picked up a massive wavey blue transparent blade and pointed it at the monstrosity that was in front of her.

"Someone stole all my memories from me, and he gave them back. Die," Firaga said as the giant burning man put up his hands, and Firaga screamed, "Oceans Roar!"

Instantly, the blade burst with a massive torrent of water that blew the burning goliath off his feet. Firaga turned and tossed the blade to me, making me drop the metal sword as she walked over to the giant crystallized body.

When I caught the sword, I instantly got a read on what it was.

[Oceans Tempest Blade]

Okay, I got the name of it, but I was going to have to ask Firaga about how she did that. There was no way a system like that was mixed into this bunch, so it must be a new skill Firaga has.

I turned back to look at Firaga; she was melting the last Villains, looking extra shiny. I jumped over about seven feet in one leap but groaned as another chain burst from my back to latch on to the Oceans Tempest blade.

My other sword had sucked to my side, and my body grew vines to hold it as I landed. Firaga was just finishing sucking the last of the systeminium as I landed, and she turned to me.

"So, do you think that was worth ten systems? I used the worst ones of the lot for that sword, but I think it looks pretty and sexy!" Firaga said, and I laughed gruffly.

"Ten Systems? Not too bad, considering there is no way we are going to make thousands of weapons. This sword is really nice, like you said, and pretty strong. Marley would be able to use this since it is so light, but can you make it a bit smaller?" I asked, holding the blade up to her, and Firaga nodded.

"It won't change the weight, but I can change the shape. What do you want?" Firaga asked.

"A katana. Marley will like that, and the extra weight will help," I said and then asked, "Can I just snap the sword of myself from the chains, or do you have to do it?"

"You can't do it with this body, but you can with your main body since we are connected. Thank you for taking me with you! Now I can make a whole bunch of really cool stuff!" Firaga said excitedly as she ran her hand over the massive blue blade.

Once it shrank down, it looked like a blue glass katana, but it had some nice weight to it. I turned and concentrated, making a pair of quick slashes that shot out thirty feet as blades of water.

Even the ground had been cut up from them, and I smiled at the beautiful blade. This thing was cool as hell.

"Great job on this! I can't wait to see what you come up with next! Now, what do you think the Villains will do?" I asked after congratulating Firaga.

"In my honest opinion, I think that they will pull back for a day and regroup. We should get back to the forest. I am starting to feel drained; I don't know how you are still full of so much energy!" Firaga exclaimed as I turned to look at her with a smile.

"I made sure that I had some extra juice in the tank, but we took care of them a lot faster than I thought we would. I can carry you back if you want," I said, but Firaga shook her head, offering me her hand.

To my surprise, I took it, and she flung me up into the air. I wasn't really sure what she was going to do, but that was not on the top of the list or anywhere near it!

Suddenly, a rocket flew under me with handlebars that I graded onto. It took only a matter of seconds to get back over the forest, and I let out a loud whoop as we zipped over top of it.

This was our first big win, and we had kicked serious ass, so I really hoped that the AI was going to make them rethink their plan. I figured it was a small hope, but it might be in their best interest to get stronger first.

Regardless, match point, thirty-seven to zero! We won; they lost, Yahtzee!
