(Jacob POV)

I was training with Susie usual. Susie grinned as the shockwaves from our punches shook the entire realm of the training room “We have grown much stronger!”

I dodged her punch “I agree, I feel like our pasts elves would be ants compared to where we are now.”

We were interrupted by the training room returning to normal, Luna was standing there. She frowned “You need to meet someone immediately!”

Next to her was a pudgy purple cat in an Egyptian style outfit who stared at us “So these two are the fighters that you were talking about! They don’t look like much!”

Susie growled “Well if you think of little of us, then fight us! Unless you are a coward!”

The purple cat’s face contorted in fury “I am the God of Destruction of this universe, Champa! I will not be mocked by you!” I saw Luna frantically activate the training simulation, there a tall blue skinned female wearing an outfit far more modest and regal than Lord Champa.

I flew over to them. The female bowed “I am Vados, the attendant to Lord Champa. Your friend better be very strong or else she will die fighting Lord Champa.” I hoped the training we had done was enough. I didn’t my sister to be killed, especially by a fat purple cat.

(Susie POV)

I dodged the purple cat’s punch, slamming my fist into his gut sending hurtling downwards. I charged at him, he fired a huge blast. I created a small green shield, blocking part of the blast as I pushed myself against it slamming the shield into this face. Her gritted his teeth as his power flared up, I powered up as well.

Champa fired a series of purple blast which I dodged, I noticed that anything that touched seemed to evaporate on contact. He rushed at me, I dodged his punches grabbing both his arms. I slammed my knee into his gut, I then sent him flying upward with an uppercut. I then fired a huge blast. The cat, battered and bruised by blast glared down at me.

Champa formed a huge purple ball of energy, flinging down at me. I charged energy in my hands before firing a powerful blast. He tossed is the huge ball of destructive energy towards me, our attacks met int the middle. He poured more power his attack and I did the same our attacks growing larger. I simply starting pouring more and more energy out. I smirked as he started to tire, his orb vanishing as he is consumed by my attack.

I frowned as a tall blue skinned woman caught him, I frowned as Jacob flew over to me “Who is that?”

He frowned “That is his attendant, they are supposed to keep him out of trouble. She is also far stronger than him from what I could gather.” We headed over to Luna, Jacob frowned “Was then anyone else with him?”

Luna nodded “There was purple individual wearing an armoured coat, they called him Hit. He is being paid to be here by Champa.”

Once Vados joined, the five exited. I caught a purple fist in front of me, I had not seen where it came from. I glared at the purple being that matched Luna’s description of Hit. I glared at him “I don’t know how you moved so fast but you are overconfident if you think you hit me so easily.”

Vados raised her hand “They have already proved themselves, she was able to beat Lord Champa. Having said that, we wish for you to train with them. We will pay you for your time.” She tossed Hit a large bag of funds as the initial payment, Hit bowed entering the chamber.

Jacob grimaced “Why did we even leave the chamber?” I shrugged as we entered, Luna set up the chamber once more. We got ready to spar with Hit, he removed his hands from his coat. Suddenly he was right in front of me, I blocked his arm before kicking him away. Jacob rushed behind me. He started appearing feigning attacks from every direction, before vanishing again. It’s not invisibility.

I gritted my teeth “Jacob, he’s skipping through time. It’s how he’s moving so fast, he can’t attack while skipping time but he can close the distance! He’s getting better at it to!” The only advantage we had was that we were ahead which meant that as he improved, we did to. We got faster and we are movements grew sharper as well.

The fight ended as his stamina wore down while ours did not. Hit crossed his arms “You two are truly impressive.” We walked over to Luna who was sleeping next to the control and shook her awake. After a second or two of shock, she turned off the simulation. We headed to mess hall, while the three of us waited for food, we noticed Hit was looking at every exit.

Everyone around us looked at him oddly, he clearly wasn't comfortable with large crowds. I frowned “How about we retire to somewhere more private.”

He nodded “Yes, I’m not used to be in a place so open.”

Jacob frowned as the two of us “I’m going to stay and have lunch with Luna.” I nodded, I got up Hit following behind me.

Hit frowned “I surprised you are so carefree around me.”

I frowned “You are an Assassin and a very good on, you don’t kill unless you are paid. You are also a professional and would never let yourself be seen by your target. You would scope them out, from a distance out of sight and mind.”

Hit nodded “You have read me well, I have no contract to kill you and considering that Lord Champa will likely make you a member of his team. I doubt that he would take kindly take any attempt on your life. Assassins obsessed with money over their own survival end up dead very quickly.” We separated after that, he wished to find a guest room in the castle to get some rest in. I decided to do the same.
