Good morning to you all.

I am seeking to add more sparring and training partners to my daily regimen. While I am a swordsman and a marksman, I have no special abilities like many of you do. At least, none that work on kaiju. I would like to train against those who are stronger than I who uses such abilities. I want to be able to learn how to attack and defend against a plethora of different attacks in order to be ready for anything a kaiju may throw at us.

In return, if you are interested in sword or handgun training, I would be glad to show you the ropes.

I'm a well-experienced combatant and seek those who will not hold back.

Thank you for your time.

huh. yeah, that's definitely a star-studded cast so to speak

have to ask, then. how'd you convince them?

[the_fourteenth]

Through battle. I had to prove myself first, and they were convinced by what they saw in me. I'm honored to have any the approval of demons of their ranks, and to have them fighting by my side.

["Demon" as a bit of a catch-all for all manner of supernatural beings.]

However, LILITH brought me here without them. This is why I am looking for more training - to make up for the crutch of having my demons to aid me in battle.

[fursuit]

...well, shit. gotta admit that it's exactly what I'd do too. consider me officially intrigued.

can't exactly fight by your side in the way you did before, I'm gonna guess, but training? absolutely. definitely wanna see what you can do now. I'll put you on the shortlist for one of my Trials, even, but gotta get to know you better for those

[the_fourteenth]

You may be surprised. I've actually been able to work with a few here that are, shall we say, not quite human, in what would be a summoner/demon relationship. It's worked quite well. They benefit from having access to my magnetite - my magical energy, if you will - and working together has been a boon in battle.

I've been willing to extend the offer to others. But I am more than willing to prove myself in a Trial first to see if you are truly interested.

huh! double surprised! but in that case, have to disappoint you with just my personal principles. he's not here, sure, but already got an agreement with another guy, so it'd feel weird to go back on it before our business was finished up. I'd take you up on it if I was running hot when it came to magical energy, but pretty intentionally dialed that back when I got summoned in the first place.

unless you're real good at healing. that I could make an exception for if I ever need to pull out the big guns! haha

[ whatever that means... ]

would still be intrigued about offering you a Trial, though. would be to your advantage, assuming you pass, anyways. I make them real difficult on purpose. no point in a divine test if it's easily overcome

buuuut we'll start out with basic training kinds of stuff. that's bonding. could even rope in my buddy set if you want the double experience of two war(ish) gods

[the_fourteenth]

I can respect that. I wouldn't want to interfere.
You're working with a summoner at home?

Unfortunately I can only heal once the battle is over, thanks to the healing upgrade.

I would appreciate any experience I can get. Training with two war gods would make me feel much more prepared to face down the next kaiju.

[fursuit]

sure am. they're just mages where I'm from, but he did summon me, so summoner is true too. real pain in the ass to do, so I have to give him credit for going through the effort. that and not backing down when I shot him haha

[ Not that Raidou thought he was kidding, probably, but as proof... ]

I'll hit him up, but I'm sure he'll agree. he's kinda more agreeable about that thing than I am, since he's war and I'm conflict, but that's a small point. can't have better training is the bigger one

good to see you're taking it seriously too

[the_fourteenth]

[He'll have to ask about that whole shooting his summoner thing later.]

Of course. I wouldn't ask something of this group so lightly. Without my demons here, I am at a serious disadvantage in battle. I want to do whatever I can to make sure I am no longer a liability on the battlefield.

Thank you for your help. I am Raidou, by the way. Kuzunoha Raidou.

good to meet you raidou. look forward to doing it in person of course but starting out with these texts aint bad

so! I'll hit Set up and we'll get a nice training regiment for you I'm sure
