白と黒の雷光
In
a coliseum, King Eva Stolla with his pupil, White lightening Low were watching a
group of students practicing their skills. King Eva Stolla commented that the
Skills used in the Kuruda Annihilation Technique were white as well as black.
Even though Low was known as White Lightening, there would be another person
with the name of Black Lightening. That person to fit that name would be Shadow
Skill’s younger brother who also had great potential to become a Cevar. Upon
hearing this, White Lightening Low wished to challenge him.
At
the Octopus restaurant, Elle and Gau returned from their morning training. As
usual, Gau was defeated and was literally covered with bruises. Kyou, concerned,
offered to treat his wounds but Gau turned her down, saying that his wounds were
minor bruises. Elle teased him and actually kiss a bump on Gau’s head, causing
Kyou to be completely jealous while Gau was totally embarrassed. Kyou, still
fluming with jealousy, went off to town to get supplies for the restaurant.
Meanwhile,
Low was standing in front of Scar face’s statue and wondered about the poses
that he should make when he earned the title of Cevar. A group of girls walked
by and talked about the 59th Cevar, Elle Lag. Low instantly shunned
them off. To him, it was improper for a woman to become a mercenary. Instead she
should be gentle, caring, demure… etc.
While being deep in his thoughts, Low accidentally bumped into Kyou. The
moment he saw Kyou, it was love at first sight. He tried to strike up a
conversation but Kyou politely left. Still, Low was determined to win her heart.
For
days, Kyou had been receiving anonymous letters which she couldn’t understand
its contents. Folly volunteered to help her translated the letters for her.
After reading one letter, Folly mischievously told Kyou that it was a love
letter from a secret admirer. Kyou became excited and thought that it was Gau
who wrote them. Unfortunately, it wasn’t Gau who wrote the letters. To make
things worse (or hilarious), Elle misinterpreted that someone was having a
strong grudge against Kyou. As expected, Kyou walked off angrily, leaving Elle
and Gau baffled. That night, Kyou leaned against her windowsill and sighed
heavily. Outside the restaurant was Low, who thought that Kyou had fallen for
him.
The
next day, Elle and Gau continued to ‘analyze’ the letters, much to Kyou’s
annoyance. It was concluded between Elle and Gau that someone was going to
kidnap Kyou very soon. Immediately, Kyou left in a huff. Gau followed her to
town, insisting that she should be guarded based on Elle’s orders. Kyou
instantly snapped at Gau for being so obedient to whatever Elle said to him. She
ran off. Gau tried to follow but lost sign of her.
After
running away from Gau, Kyou walked alone along the alleys. Then, she heard
someone following her. Frightened, she quickly sped off into the market streets.
In the midst of doing so, she tripped and fell. At that moment, Low made his
‘heroic’ entrance. Seeing her frightened face and Gau (who had just
arrived), Low thought that he was terrorizing Kyou. Without delay, Low attacked
Gau. Luckily, Kyou stopped the fight.
Later, Low confessed to Kyou that he was the one who wrote the love
letters to her. Gau instantly accused him of trying to kidnap Kyou. Low was
slightly taken back by his outburst. Then a horrible realization came to Low’s
mind, Gau had read his love letters!
Totally upset, Low challenged Gau to a duel. (Poor Gau, how bad
can his luck get!)
Soon,
Gau and Low were in a coliseum, together with Kyou, Folly and Elle. Low formally
introduced himself White Lightening Low, Front Skill. Then, he saw Elle and
recognized her as the 59th Cevar, Shadow Skill. Low set off in
chiding her for being lack in her training. Elle rebut, saying she would be here
to support Gau. Low strongly felt that Elle was being too lenient with herself
and Gau. In addition, how could Gau become a Cevar, much less protecting Kyou?
Within seconds, Low was beating the heck out of Gau. Folly observed that Low had
a great potential to become a Cevar since his speed, strength and agility were
much greater than Gau’s. Elle felt that Gau was doing poorly because he was
struggling with himself to find a reason to fight Low. Kyou, wanting to stop the
fight, ran in between the two fighters just as Low was using Kuruda Annihilation
Technique, Haken.
Low
watched in horror as he thought Kyou would be injured in the process. Luckily,
Gau blocked the blow. His face set grim. Gau told Low that he would show that he
was capable of protecting Kyou. Folly smiled, knowing that Gau’s true strength
would appear when he was defending someone. So, the fight between Gau and Low
dragged on throughout the entire day and night.
The
next morning, Kyou awoke to find Gau and Low, still fighting. Finally, both men
collapsed out of exhaustion. When they have recovered, Low thanked Gau for
accepting the duel. He was convinced that Gau had a potential to become a Cevar.
In the end, they became friends, agreeing upon that they should compete to see
who gets the title of Cevar.
