Chapter 2 – Kaze and Kumo

[Normal world, Kaneki's team's recording room – 3rd Jan, 2016 13:20]

"… So it's time to end this episode here. Thank you all so much for watching! We will see you in the next video! Bye bye!" Kaneki, and a black haired and black dressing boy said. That boy was Kirito, also known as Kirigaya Kazuto. He was the male protagonist of Sword Art Online.

"This game is pretty awesome, isn't it?" Kaneki turned off the recorder, then took off his mask, and said.

"Yeah. Compared to other RPG game, this one has a very unique system, and the story is also amazing. But compared to ALO…" Kirito showed a sad face. It looked like something has happened in his own world.

"Don't be sad." Kaneki said. "I have promised you to revenge together, right?"

"Yes." Smile was back on Kirito's face. "But before doing so, we should train more to raise our prowess."

"Absolutely! However, Haro still hasn't finished the training machine…"

"Then let's go to see the progress!"

"Good idea!"

Then a cute voice came from the back. "Papa! Mama!" A cute white and black haired little boy ran towards Kaneki and Kirito.

"Ah, Haise!" Kirito picked up that little boy. "Come, kiss mama!" Haise kissed Kirito's cheek.

"Papa also wants a kiss!" Kaneki said. Then Haise turned his head and kissed Kaneki's cheek.

"Good boy!" Kaneki touched Haise's head.

"Papa! Mama! Let's play video game together!"

"But your Papa and Mama needed to do something else…"

"Can't play video game together?" Haise said disappointedly.

"Well, although we can't play video game now, we are actually going to Haro Lab. Haise, let's go there to see if there're some interesting new products!"

"Yeah! Haro Lab!"

"Then let's go!" Kirito and Kaneki gave all editing and uploading work to green Haro. They both held up Haise's hands, and three people together set off to the Haro Lab.

[Normal world, Haro Lab – 3rd Jan, 2016 14:00]

Kirito, Kaneki and Haise together arrived in the Haro Lab. Haro Lab were a place that researching on technology and science, and also the way to combine them with magic. There was a lot of Haro working in front of the computers or experimental equipment. Inaho and Slaine, the two male protagonists of Aldnoah Zero, were also working there.

"So these physical properties should be inside this class, right?" Slaine asked Inaho.

"I think so. But remember you should also add this one." Inaho answered.

"Hello! How is the progress?" Kirito walked towards them and said, followed by Kaneki and Haise.

"Ah! Kirito, Kaneki and also Haise-chan! You all are here." Slaine said.

Then Inaho looked towards them. "You mean the progress of the development of the training machine, right? Unfortunately, still 0%..."

"How could that still be 0%? We are here for more than 3 weeks now." Kaneki doubtfully asked.

"Because we are still in the process of developing Magicode. Our system needs magic to run. But if we use common magic to produce that, it will be difficult to combine them together. Therefore, we need a better system."

"What is Magicode?" Haise asked, with a cute voice.

"Good question, Haise-chan. Magicode is a programming language that tells a computer how to perform magic. Magic is related to the miracle and is able to modify our world. As our world includes a lot of physical and chemical properties, different magic can alter or simulate those properties. However, as there are too much magic and properties there, it is very difficult to combine them into a system. Therefore, we are creating a magic language that can be typed in a computer to make it easier to produce our training system." Slaine explained.

"That's interesting. If we finished the magic language, could we make magic game?" Kirito asked.

"Sure. That's how our training system will be." Inaho answered.

Haise was interested very much. Slaine picked him up to let him see the screen.

"Haise-chan. Want to see some simulation?"

"Yeah!" Haise said excitedly.

Then Inaho and Slaine brought everyone to a room. Almost all sides were covered by walls there. Only a door and a window could be seen on one of the walls. Behind that window, there was a confined space, and a table inside it. Inaho took out a laptop and connected it with a special device.

"What is that device?" Kirito asked.

"This is the magic battery. If we want to perform magic, oblation is needed. In this world, the oblation required is human blood, so this device is actually a container with human blood inside it."

"But… where did the blood come from?" Kaneki asked in surprise.

"Produced by stem cell technology. The Haro army just finished it."

Then Inaho input some codes to the laptop. After hitting the proceed button, a large metal cube was produced on the table in the other side.

"We now successfully produced Francium in the other room." Inaho said.

"Francium? Is that the element which only has a short half-life?"

"Yes. But I just extended its half-life to about several thousand years by Magicode, so we can do whatever experiment on it. Now let's continue by producing some water." Inaho input more codes into the computer. A cube of still water is created, and it is covering the Francium cube. Then the Francium cube suddenly reacted with water and exploded.

"Great. Francium is really less reactive than Cesium and even potassium. The quantum effect is right."

"That's awesome!" Haise excitedly said.

Kaneki and Kirito were surprised by the experiment. It was unbelievable that magic and science could combine to perform this.

"So Magicode can really do everything?"

"Yes, but it depends on the capacity of the battery, a.k.a. the amount of oblations."

"Then our mysteries could also be solved…"

"You mean the mystery why only one of your swords exists in our world?"

"Yes. Only my Elucidator exists in this world. I missed my Dark Repulser and Excalibur."

"Also my Kagune. I can't use it here."

"Haro also wanted to solve these mysteries. However, more mysteries were found while investigation. So when we finish the Magicode, we will investigate on that."

"Alright…"

"So for now, the training machine is still not yet in development. We will try to complete it as soon as possible. We estimate the system will be done after three weeks. Maybe you two could have Yokai hunt for training at this time being."

"Ah, as we talk about Yokai hunting, in this morning, our sensor has detected an abnormal magic power source in an abandoned factory. You two can go there to investigate it."

"But then who takes care of Haise?"

"We are busy on development now… But you may ask Yuu and Mika to take care of Haise. They should be free now."

"Haise, would you like to play with Mika and Yuu now?" Haise nodded his head.

"Good enough! I can finally wield my sword again."

[Normal world, abandoned factory – 3rd Jan, 2016 15:22]

Kirito and Kaneki arrived in the abandoned factory. "It should be here…" Kirito said.

The two people walked inside the building. In front of them was a pile of human bones.

"These many human bones… This place must be the nest of Yokai." Kaneki said.

Then they heard some creepy laughter coming out. "Hehehehe. Stupid humans! It's unbelievable that you come here to become our dinner! As a prize, we will 'treat you well'!"

A lot of Yokai swooped out to attack Kirito and Kaneki. They were actually ghouls which have appeared before. Kaneki took out his red gun and started to shoot. Kirito also took out his Elucidator to cut them. They successfully killed many of them but there were more coming.

"It's not good. There's too much of them!"

"No problem!" Kirito took out a bottle of potion. He threw it into air and then cut it in half by his Elucidator. "Embraced by the magical tune played by mist. Now sleep! Black Etude!" The black potion summoned a black Sword Dragon. It charged towards those ghouls and killed every single one of them.

"I am not Black Swordsman anymore. I am now the Black Makenshi. Please call me 'Kuroki Kumo'."

"If you are the 'Kuroki Kumo', then should I be the 'Shiroi Kaze'?"

After Kaneki said that, there was suddenly an earthquake. The building started to collapse. Kirito and Kaneki ran out of the factory. A giant creature came out from the ground. "Damn you humans! How dare you kill all my children? You all must die!" The king of Ghoul with height of 80m has appeared in front of the two people.

"The boss monster is finally here. But he is too big. I am afraid my Elucidator and Black Etude can't damage him much…"

Then Kaneki looked at his Magun. The emerald on it started to glow. "It has moved!"

"So now it's your turn." Kirito said.

"Soil is my power!" A drill came out from the golden cylinder. Then a screw was produced and started to spin. White energy storm was produced. A three barreled golden gun was gradually formed, with a beating black heart at its core. "The Magun has thawed!" The Magun completed forming.

"So you are the one who killed three of my children before? But your Phoenix summon won't work for me as I'm not afraid of fire!" King of Ghoul arrogantly said.

Then Kaneki pointed his finger to the King of Ghoul. "The soil charge triad to use on you has been decided!"

Kaneki took out a gray bullet from his belt. "Grinding and devouring rocks, Shark Gray!" He just bounced his finger and the gray bullet was inserted into one of the barrels.

"The moment that dictates the time of extinction, Steel Gray!" Another gray bullet was inserted.

"And finally, the spirit that drops into infinite darkness, Silent Black!" Kaneki bounced the final black bullet to the air, and the bullet was just inserted into the final barrel. Then the black heart beat faster and the drill started to spin.

"Swallow! I summon you! Macrosaurus!" The Magun shot out two different gray and a black light. The three lights gathered and became a giant Kaiju. It was a blue and abnormally fat T-Rex, Macrosaurus.

The King of Ghoul roared and ran towards Macrosaurus. Macrosaurus released his Putrid Cloud and impeded King of Ghoul. Then quickly, Macrosaurus bit off King of Ghoul's head. Within a short time, King of Ghoul was just got eaten completely.

After the King of Ghoul has been completely swallowed, Macrosaurus roared towards the sky and disappeared. Magun has also turned back to the golden cylinder. The two people started to celebrate for their victory.

"No one could beat down the strongest man and wife combination, right? Shiroi Kaze?" Kirito said.

Hearing from Kirito, Kaneki started to smile."That goes without saying. Kuroki Kumo!" Kaneki answered.

"Let's go back home! Haise is waiting for us." The two people has gone back home. After the fight, Haro army turned the collapsed factory back to normal. Still no one knew that someone was behind to eliminate Yokai for everyone. But, the most important thing is, the new Kaze and Kumo has born!
