A handful of fanatics ca across the Lady Death’s Heel in a completely coincidental manner. Ves pushed the ch to the forefront of the catalog with a modest amount of spending. Every player in the Bright Republic encountered images of the ch in a handful of days, but most didn’t pay attention to it at all.
They quickly regretted their neglect for this ch. Over a span of a couple of days, it had grown into the latest fad. A decent number of bold girls with plenty of credits or in-ga gold to spare started to purchase the Heel by the thousands.
After that, they rained death from the skies.
One of the most successful and iconic Heel pilots was a seventeen year old girl called Irenal. As a daughter of a pair of bureaucrats on Rittersberg, she enjoyed a lot of privilege when she grew up. When the governnt discovered she possessed the aptitude to pilot a ch, her parents encouraged her to train her potential abilities.
Although she lacked the talent and the drive to work hard, Irenal nevertheless enjoyed so many tutoring sessions that she had reached the top ten percent of her age group. Her parent’s money and influence ensured she attended one of Rittersberg’s elite ch academies, and she flourished under the high-pressure learning environnt.
In actual fact, she had beco a little bored of the life of a potentate. She spent most of her ti training for class or training according to the schedule made by her tutors. Irenal hardly spent any ti with her friends.
Iron Spirit ford an important part of her training as the other simulators played like single-player gas. No matter how sophisticated they tried to emulate human ch pilots, they always felt too robotic.
The sheer chaos, genius and unpredictability of fighting against humans taught Irenal to stay on her toes. People pulled off all kinds of crazy things. Since she lived a rather sheltered life among the cultured society of Rittersberg, she constantly got bullied around online.
That all changed when she first saw an ad for the Lady Death’s Heel. The distinctive-looking feminine ch appealed to her fashion senses. Its sharp and narrow profile along with its elegant and fashionable curves appealed to her aesthetic sense.
It’s highly distinctive fighting style sounded completely different from every other ch she had seen so far. She desperately wanted to stave off her boredom, and an interesting ch like the Heel sounded just about right.
Without any further hesitation, she threw a bunch of credits at the store. "Now, you’re mine."
She went over the specs of her latest purchase and understood sowhat on how to use the ch. The Lady Death’s Heel excelled against lee landbound chs. They couldn’t retaliate against the aerial light ch when it started its descent.
"On the other hand, a bunch of rifleman chs will easily be able to chew this ch apart." Irenal bit her lip.
She decided to take the ch for a spin in a massive 200v200 Wartorn Instance. Even though the ch couldn’t be run for very long, the Wartorn Instances offered plenty of opportunities to replenish spent supplies. It was more important for her to maximize the chance of encountering a landbound lee ch.
"In duels, it’s a complete guess whether I’ll face a lee ch or not. I can only pick the largest battle I can enter and find my own targets."
After a short period of waiting, the matchmaking process finished and the players connected onto the hangar that brought all two-hundred chs in a single place.
Irenal ignored the bickering armchair generals trying to organize the players into following their chosen strategies. She had her own ga plan in mind, and it did not entail working together with others.
As soon as the hangar door opened, Irenal engaged the Heel’s flight system and flew out. The battlefield this ti consisted of a half-frozen aquatic moon environnt. This was both good and bad for aerial chs like the Heel.
"One one hand, the lack of air makes it difficult for the Heel to vent its heat while in the air. On the other hand, it can quickly dump its head onto the frozen ground as long as it lands."
Other aerial chs that possessed a working pair of legs would find no trouble landing on the ground I was a different case for the Lady Death’s Heel, which could not even stand upright on the ground. It had to lay in an unlady-like sprawl when it lost all of its power.
Irenal ignored this minor inconvenience and set out from the base. The instant she dove her consciousness deeper into her ch, she felt so kind of energy passing over her mind. She shuddered a bit as a previously latent desire to kill beca a little more prominent.
"I really want to kill soone with this ch."
Her desires beca stoked and her bloodthirsty side started to gain strength. She boldly swept towards the enemy side of the battlefield and started to sweep her eyes over the light chs that occasionally flitted past.
Even though she imdiately wanted to make an attack run, she knew that light chs would not let themselves be caught.
"I’ve got to find a dium or heavy ch."
After a few minutes of circling, the area beca a little more crowded with enemy chs. She often had to swing her aerial ch away from the anti-air pointed in her direction. After she had been driven out to the periphery of the frontlines, she happened to have encountered a juicy target.
"That’s a dium knight! He’s all alone!"
Knights almost never moved alone. They always grouped up with at least a single ranged ch in order to cover situations just like this. Irenal grinned, and she started to see red. "Dive, my ch!"
The Lady Death’s Heel hovered several kiloters in the air, but abruptly started descending. The lack of air resistance on the battlefield enabled the Heel to dive even faster. Despite this, the ch shook a little as its flight systems exertised its full effort into accelerating the fall.
The knight ch’s low-quality sensors finally alerted the pilot to a potential threat from the air. Its main head swiveled towards the air and found a tiny speck closing in. The pilot of the knight started to panic.
"An aerial ch! Damn! I thought this route was safe!"
Due to a lack of better options, the knight pilot controlled his machine to brace itself against the grown. It knelt down on one knee and braced the enormous kite shield against its arms at an angle facing upwards.
The pilot didn’t bother trying to dodge. His knight ch was too slow, even if it barely fell into the diumweight classification.
In the anti, the more the Lady Death’s Heel dove down, the more her passion beca stoked. Her heart beat faster as her anticipation ballooned to an unprecedented level. Her smile grew wider and crooked as various thoughts sprung to her mind.
Within seconds, the Heel reached the ground. The knight ch put up a desperate struggle, not quite knowing what it faced. If it knew a little bit more about the Heel, he might have chosen to dodge or find so kind of alcove in the frozen seas.
"Hahahaha! Death from above!"
The collision happened instantly. Irenal underestimated the force her ch brought to bear. Even if she piloted a light ch, they still consisted of many tons of alloys and composites. Not even the thickest ch armor could withstand the power of a falling ch concentrated into a single point.
The Heel’s pointed spike mounted on its lower body did its job. It pierced through the knight ch’s shield as if it was paper, and proceeded to dump an incredible amount of kinetic energy in its chest. The penetrative qualities of the bottom spike had instantly bumped against the chest armor of the knight, which was one of its best protected portions.
It lasted only milliseconds before the spike ran straight through the frontal armor. Still, the armor did bleed off a decent amount of montum, so while the spike had managed to pierce through the back, it ran out of steam at that point.
"This.... this ch is fantastic!" Irenal exclaid, but quickly halted her celebration when she found out the ch below her spike still showed signs of moving. It tried to grasp onto a sword that had fallen a bit away from its fingers.
"Oh no you don’t. Your ti is finished here."
This ti, Irenal rembered that her ch ca with a light hamr. She raised the handle of the weapon and swung it down against the torso of the knight. She hadn’t ant to aim at anything in particular. She just wanted to wreck the sitting duck apart.
This ti, the hamr just happened to fall in front of a very sensitive area to n.
"Yeouch! That hurt!" The other pilot cried over the open channel.
The neural connection between pilots and chs went both ways. If the pilot got hurt, the ch got hurt, and if the ch got hurt, the pilot received a little damage as well. In the ga, this reciprocal connection was kept to a minimum in order to prevent the players from being overwheld by pain.
It still felt awfully unpleasant for n to get hit down below.
Irenal grew a little interested at the man’s extre response. Her ch raised its hamr yet again and let it fall on the exact sa spot.
"My nuts! Stop it! Please have rcy on !"
The woman grinned when she heard the pleas. Ordinarily, she should have finished off her opponent and find so other prey in order to tilt the battle in the favor of her team.
Yet so kind of urge held her back from moving on. She wanted to derive more satisfaction against the ch that her ch had rcilessly impaled onto the ground.
The hamr rose and fell for at least a dozen tis. The torso area beca more dented and broken with each swing of the hamr. The knight adopted a defensive build, so its waist enjoyed a lot of protection.
A single light hamr wielded by a light ch wouldn’t be able to break the shell with a couple of swings.
Nevertheless, Irenal didn’t mind this at all. Instead, she began to get lost in her own world as the hamr kept banging against the ch’s lower waist. Even its engine module broke down from all of the stress and shocks. The knight could not be piloted anymore, and the entire ch turned into a greyed-out ch.
That ant its ch pilot had forcibly logged out of the match. Anyone who left the match prematurely suffered a lot of penalties from the ga. The knight pilot suffered so much redirected pain that he couldn’t take it anymore.
"Hahahahaha!" Irenal laughed in a deranged manner as her satisfaction broke through the roof. It felt good to hamr down a man. "More!"
Her ch lifted up into the air with difficulty. The brutal collision damaged the spike to the point where it incurred a minor mind.
The woman cared nothing for this, and sought out another prey with gusto. She eventually found an isolated dium swordsman ch and chose to impale it from the skies.
This ti, her opponent reacted a little smarter and moved his ch into speeds. It darted along the frozen wastelands in order to make it hard for the Heel to pin it down.
Still, despite its best efforts, Irenal succeeded in predicting its final monts. The swordsman ch beca impaled upon the frozen sea. The shock to the Heel was imnse, but it had been designed to withstand several of these kinds of shocks in quick suggestion. The ch wouldn’t fall apart that easily.
The swordsman ch impaled to the ground started to struggle. It had managed to keep hold of its sword, and began to slash apart the spike that nailed it onto the surface of the moon.
"Nuh-uh. You won’t get away from !"
The hamr banged down against the sword, flicking it out of the swordsman ch’s reach with a single blow.
The subsequent hamr blows fell down onto the lower waist of the defenseless swordsman ch. Its pilot howled as Irenal went to town with his ch.
The swordsman ch pilot quickly logged out as well, depriving her of her latest toy.
"Oh well, it’s not like I can find a new toy to play with." She said to herself as she lifted her increasingly battered ch to the air.
By the end of the match, she ruined five different chs. Her ch had beco one of the most prominent ones on the battlefield, and everyone who took part in the Wartorn Instance got to see a quick highlight of her actions.
Witnessing the ch demolish five chs in a row with the exact sa brutish thods led to extre indignation among the n.
"Whoever designed this ch is a devil!"
