The Undying Mecha Emperor-Chapter 261 Margaret VS Emma

I was stunned.

True, I barely had ten percent of my full power out. But I had TWO experimental mecha cores and a massive bunch of mechas which I had absorbed!

My ten percent power was probably as strong as a full blown Peak White Mecha.

A King!

And there she was, in a practice mecha and casually emitting billowing waves of power which easily placed her within the top fifty powers in the ENTIRE world!!

"Hoo. So my full power is roughly similar to yours. You're not too shabby." Emma said rather condescendingly.

I grinned at her misunderstanding and did not bother to correct her.

"Stop talking like you're so strong. Come." I pointed my spear at her.

KABOOOMMM!!!

Even before the sound of her burst of speed hit my ears, Emma had already disappeared from my sight!

BA-BAMMM!!!!!

Her twin swords smashed into my shield which I was barely able to position properly with ridiculous strength.

But if she was an unstoppable force, then I was an immovable object.

Our clash created massive shockwaves so powerful that every single mecha around us were pushed backwards a couple of steps!

"You can't brute force your way to victory against me Ems. Such brainless frontal attacks won't work!" I smirked at her as I pushed her away easily.

Emma was someone who couldn't care less about what other people said about her.

But as they say, we give those whom we care about, the power to hurt us.

And because I know she cared about me, my words at that moment completely pissed her off.

"Oh yeah? That's what YOU think! I will prove to you otherwise!" Emma said hotly.

VROOO!!

A massive burst of power from her thrusters exploded backwards and propelled her forward to crash into me once more.

WHAMM!!

WHAMMM!! BAMMMM!! BAMMMMM!!

Emma unleashed a variety of powerful and creative melee attacks at me, all of which I ate up without even bothering to dodge.

"You want to take me down with your useless melee attacks? Very well. I will stand still and let you attack me to your heart's content! I will push you into despair... without even making a single move on you! Ha!" I shouted at her and stood casually while placing my spear horizontally behind my neck like Sun Wu Kong.

The fact that I was able to stand so casually without bothering to lower my center of gravity for stability was a powerful statement in and of itself.

I was basically telling her, "I don't need to bother with techniques to resist your pathetic and miserable attacks!"

Not with words, but with the far louder medium of my actions.

"You arrogant bastard! I will take you down even if that's the last thing I do!" Emma shouted back at me angrily while pushing up the strength of her attacks yet another notch.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!!

CL-CL-CLAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNGGGGG!!

Her attack speed snowballed to such great heights that the sound of her swords impacting me blended together into one continuous sound.

"Wahahahaha! Weak! Too weak!! Is this truly your full power? How come I am not sensing even the tiniest bit of threat? Am I being attacked here? Is there danger? Where am I being attacked? Oh! Look! There is an ant on my foot! I thought I felt something just now!" I shouted happily as I bent down to brush an imaginary ant away from my super armored mecha foot.

BAM!!!

Emma saw my butt being raised so high and immediately unleashed a powerful kick!

As strong as I was, there were limits as to how much resistance I had against the law of physics.

Off balance and with my butt raised so high, her kick was finally able to move me.

CRASH!

I fell headfirst to the ground as a result of my extreme cockiness.

"HUZZAAAHHHHH!!"

"THE DUMBASS HAS FALLEN DOWN!! KILL HIMM!! KILL HIM NOWWW!!"

"Justin you bozo! What the hell are you doing? The enemy is regaining their morale!!" Eliana Wang shouted at me. "Stop playing and finish her!"

In the distance, my resonance was telling me that two thousand mechas were slowly making their way towards us.

"Sheera is moving her forces forward. She still needs more time. Let me give her that time and draw the attention of every single bastard here!" I thought to myself.

I leapt up suddenly and then shouted with all of my strength.

"HA! IS THAT ALL YOU GOT? THE GIFTED PROGRAM IS BULLSHIT! EVEN YOUR BEST FIGHTER SUCKS BIG TIME! ALL OF YOU! COME AT ME! IT IS TOO BORING TO FIGHT AGAINST JUST ONE!"

"Justin, you're too much! Pride comes before a fall, remember that when you finally die today! Eat this!" Emma said with an angry and slightly hurt voice.

I felt slightly guilty, but I needed all of their attention on me.

As much as I disliked saying all those things, I disliked losing even more.

So there.

"COME! COME AT ME YOU WEAKLINGS! ARE YOU SCARED? COWARDS! NO WONDER YOU'RE SO WEAK! YOU ARE ALL COWARDS AT HEART!! POK POK POK! POK POK POKKKKK!!!" I continued my tirade as I started to parry Emma's attacks.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

With my full power, I was able to easily match Emma's speed and overpower her sword strikes. In fact, I parried so powerfully that I was able to mess up her momentum slightly due to the massive amount of recoil that she had to deal with.

After ten lightning fast strikes, I managed to push her back just as the first wave of angry gifted program students came at me. 𝘧𝓇𝗲𝑒we𝙗noѵ𝑒l.𝐜o𝘮

"ATTACK!! KILL THEM ALL!!" I shouted at my subordinates who had finally managed to catch up.

One hundred something mechas going against over four thousand.

It was quite the sight.

"Prepare to execute a fighting retreat back to the piles of dead mechas." I ordered them all even as we clashed together powerfully.

It was a reasonable order. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

As high as our morale was, we were outnumbered twenty times. We did not have enough mass to physically charge through so many enemies!

Within seconds, our fearsome charge lost its momentum and many of the hundred mechas started to fall.

"Retreat!" I shouted and brandished my spear this way and that way to keep Emma and a couple other powerful heavies at bay.

"Yeah! Run like the puss-"

WHAM!

I destroyed the heavy mecha before he could finish his words.

The sixty remaining mechas managed to disengage from the battle and started to scamper away.

If you do not know yet, then now you know.

Fighting retreats are hard.

Against a pissed off enemy who outnumber us?

Very, very, very hard.

We need to move backwards and keep their attacks at bay AND keep ourselves alive, all the time trying our best not to stop moving.

Within seconds, only thirty of us were left.

I could sense the enemy's bloodlust rising even higher and the desperation of my team mates.

"Just a little bit more! Keep moving! Once we reach the piles of mechas, they won't be able to kill us anymore!" I shouted at my team mates.

"CHASE THEM! DESTROY EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!!"

"DIE! DIE! DIE!!"

"YOU DARE TO DISPARAGE US HIGHBORNS? DIE!!"

The curses and the angry shouts from the enemy kept coming at us non stop.

"Guys, reverse charge and give the rest some time to run. On my mark. Three. Two. One. GO!!" I shouted at my five friends.

As one, we stopped moving backwards and charged forward instead!

"The rest of you! RUN!!" I yelled as I plunged deep into the enemy lines.

WHAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!!

Their attacks fell upon us like heavy rain.

"This is not good. We may be much stronger than them, but at this rate, sooner or later, their attacks will penetrate our defenses!" Elise Wang said in a slightly worried tone.

"Don't worry. Our freak of a leader should still have some magic left in his book of spells. He'll take care of it. Am I right?" James laughed as he unleashed a blinding sequence of attacks which left a trail of dead mechas behind him.

But before I could answer him, I saw something flash from the corner of my eyes.

WHAAAMMMMM!!!!!!

Two powerful sword strikes landed on James and instantly destroyed his mecha!

It was Emma!

"Little Emma. You're bullying James again? Come fight me!" Margaret shouted from the side as she bulled her way towards Emma.

But she needn't have bothered.

As soon as she was done killing James, Emma turned towards Margaret and exploded towards her in a massive burst of speed!

It was another match up of dreams. Margaret versus Emma.

The two incredibly powerful girls of the incredibly talented Whitefrost Clan.

"Nice! This will be good!" General Anthony Chang exclaimed loudly.

"Hmmm." Even the grouchy General Peter Long had nothing bad to say about the match up.

"Hell yeah! If Margaret performs well, the Navy wants her! Both of you listen carefully!" Admiral Terry Wei shouted.
