He knew with the new power the Tsukumo boy had aquired, they were going to have more trouble than ever defeating him.
They needed a new kind of power, the power that Vector had so foolishly let slip out of his hands.
That power being Haruto Tenjo.
Misael knew it was beyond risky to try and apphrehend the boy himself, but figured was getting rather desperate at this point.
Alit and Gilag had still yet to waken. Durbe was just following along with Vector's, or was it Nache's, plans? Either way, Misael needed to take action. He would seek out the boy, defeat the elder, and get them the power they needed.
To be perfectly honest, he did not know much about the boy…he didn't even know what he looked like. But if he was Kaito's brother and had managed to shake Vector off, he had to be something of a challenge. Yes, he would defeat them both single-handedly, and be able to stop having to rely on Vector's petty, reckless planning.
Heading off towards the Tenjo estate, Misael caught a glimpse of Kaito from the balcony of the tower.
It was strange…he wasn't used to seeing the other smile so openly. What did he have to smile about anyways? The fool had no idea what was in store for him.
Sneaking by closer, Misael crept by to attempt to hear what he was jabbering on about with these feeble human ears of his. What a strange anatomy they had…everything felt so excessive. The others didn't seem to mind as much, but his face really did feel quite bare without his shell.
"Are you one hundred million percent sure you don't have a crush on her?" Kaito smugly questioned, leaning against the railing to look back at someone.
"She's just a friend from school! I don't go out and assume you have crushes on all of your friends!" a young childs voice replied.
"Oh come on! You hang around so many cute little girls, are you sure you're not in love?"
"Love?! Where did love come from!" the younger was no shrieking, causing the elder to laugh in a light kind of manner Misael didn't think suited him.
What was this kind of…strange light-heartedness he was partaking in? Teasing and…it couldn't help but remind him of how Alit used to tease Gilag about his little obsession with magical girls.
The child was now tugging at Kaito's arm, trying to poke at his ribs for some reason. Kaito began laughing now, trying to pick the younger up.
"Now I KNOW you love one of them, and stop tickling, that's cheating Haruto!" he began breathing out heavily, now close to tears.
"Take it back, or I'm telling Chris how you used to kiss your hand and pretend it was him!"
At this Misael too had to cover his mouth from laughing.
How absurd! He had caught Alit doing the very same thing! To think someone like this was…he acted so…
…he called him Haruto.
This…this small, fragile looking child was Haruto?
Misael's smile quickly faded, and though Kaito was now chasing Haruto back inside (something about promising to keep his mouth shut),he felt he needed to stay completely still.
He didn't expect him to be so young.
Swallowing down an unpleasant feeling that was swelling in his chest, Misael turned away from the Tenjo estate and shook his head.
Vector may be so low as to go after a child, but he was not. He would duel Kaito on his own terms, on an equal battle field.
Perhaps it was time to check on Durbe, he did say he was going to head to the human world soon?
Or…perhaps he would check on Alit and Gilag quickly.
He…couldn't help but miss them all of the sudden…
