Canon 10
Previously on Canon Distortion
Sora Minakaze had just arrived in the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi and was making his way towards the Kagutsuchi Museum to do a job for the 4 heads of Otsu. The job? Pass some information to Sector Seven who has been killing the couriers they have been sending. When Sora came face to face with the Red Devil, Iron Tager, it didn't take long for things to suddenly break out into a fight. And thus, both Sora Minakaze and Iron Tager are ready to clash with each other.
And now, The Canon Continues.
The Kagutsuchi Museum. Often considered by the Kagutsuchi Tourism board as a location that people need to visit but the locals don't really know why. Normally, it's empty halls would be home to dust and the occasional security guard patrolling around and making sure trouble was not being caused. Today however, trouble was being caused as Sora thrusted himself towards Tager with his Rev Blade, barely nicking the Red Devil's chest as the man barely got out of the way.
'The Red Devil's a slow ass man.' Sora thought as Tager's feet touched the ground, creating a small crater in the process. 'But he's one bulky boy. That means he can take a lot of abuse.' Sora thought as Tager felt a sense of danger coming out of Sora as he noticed through his small round glasses the seriousness in Sora's eyes. "Kokonoe, I would like any information you can give me on this man I am facing right now." Tager asked secretly through his comms where Kokonoe, from the safety of her lab's screens, was able to see everything that was happening at that moment.
"Trying to find that info for you right now, for now just engage basic combat protocol. Secure the weapon he's using and take him down from there." Kokonoe said as she began to comb through any database for information she can use against Sora, even diving into top secret NOL information to do so as Tager had his orders and began to go to work. As Sora attempted another thrust, Sora noticed the gauntlets begin to charge up with electricity as he was forced to block a sweeping attack that Tager made for his feet, causing that electricity to flow through the rev blade.
'That is not good.' Sora thought as he noticed the electricity sparks leaping towards him as he attempted to put some distance between him and Tager. As he jumped back, Tager opened up his palms and the same electricity he emitted before came back as Sora felt a pull like never before forcing him back into Tager's hands as he grabbed Sora and send him flying towards the wall, creating a small crater as Sora coughed upon impact a bit of blood.
As Sora landed on his knees, the wind knocked out of him for a bit, he reached out for his weapon only to realize that it was not there as he saw that Iron Tager had managed to disarm him off his weapon as it laid stabbed on the opposite side of the Tyrannosaurus Rex exhibit. "Give up, without your weapon you don't stand a chance against me." Tager threatened, trying to intimidate Sora but Sora didn't give much of a care as he wiped his mouth before spitting out a small excess of blood that had built up.
"No thanks, I would rather take my chances thanks." Sora said, forcing Tager to retaliate as he immediately released out the energy inside him into a massive electric ball that Sora barely managed to dodge, causing his cloak to be blown off him as Tager saw and gasped a bit at the fact that the man he was fighting was in fact missing an arm. "Professor, the enemy's missing a limb." Tager said, a bit disturbed by what was going on but Kokonoe knew better.
"It doesn't matter if he's missing an arm or a leg. He made the choice to fight without an arm. Make him regret that choice!" Kokonoe said as her eyes went towards another set of monitors she was looking at as she had managed to pull some strings within Sector Seven for her to get a squad into Otsu. She had to admit, trying to do business with Otsu was a bad idea in the first place and now that they know too much, she needed to close up all of the loose ends on her part. Her attempted hack failed and thus she's forced to take a more brute force approach.
"Professor Kokonoe, we are approaching the location of where the 4 heads of Otsu are." A Sector Seven soldier said as they took their positions in front of the Midnight bar, ready to storm in and kill the heads on her order. "Wait for 10 minutes and report back to me what they are doing." Kokonoe said as she knew better than to rush and get the men under her command killed unnecessarily. At the end of the day, it's just a couple of criminals who managed to get a whole hierarchical city under their control. Just what can they really do?
As Kokonoe planned to tie up the loose ends of her part, Tager was struggling to land a killing blow on Sora as Sora was just trying to get to the Rev Blade. 'I cannot let him get that weapon, I don't know what it can do but I must finish this before he can use it!' Tager thought as he was a rational person. He was able to put together that Sora needed the Rev Blade for something but what was that? He didn't really know as Sora himself knew he stood no chance against Tager unarmed and had to get to the Rev Blade.
'Well, Guess now's the time to put the upgrades that Caroline made to the Rev Blade.' Sora thought as he began to run on the display cabinets, his boots cracking on the glass as Tager saw what he was doing. "HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THESE PRICELESS ARTIFACTS!" Tager shouted, a man who respected the history that laid with these bones as Sora saw something he could try to exploit as he jumped hard on the glass display of the primitive weapons, causing the glass to shatter and the weapons to scatter into the air as he began to kick them right towards Tager.
Tager felt a sense of panic come into him as he began to use his magnetism to catch the priceless artifacts, being extremely careful with each piece as he looked at Sora, his anger starting to swell. "DO YOU NOT HAVE ANY RESPECT FOR HISTORY!?" Tager yelled as he charged right for Sora as he looked at a display containing the skeleton of a Raptor. "No not really, Didn't care much for history back in the day." Sora said as he casually took a bone from said display and tossed it towards Tager, causing the display to lose balance as Sora continued to make a break for his weapon.
Kokonoe at this point was starting to notice that Tager's readings were starting to become a bit erratic. "Tager calm down! He's just trying to provoke you that's all! Keep your head calm dammit." Kokonoe said as Tager caught the bone that Sora had tossed at him, moving as fast as he could to save the Raptor exhibit in time as he saw what Sora was trying to do. At this point, any hesitation that Tager might have had fighting a man missing his arm evaporated as he raised his hand towards the Rev Blade.
"I won't let you!" Tager yelled as Sora saw the Rev blade come right off the wall and flew straight for the other side, Tager intending to make sure Sora could not get the blade in time. Sora couldn't help but smirk at that as in front of Tager, at one moment he saw Sora running towards the Rev Blade. The next as soon as his eyes blinked he saw Sora, grabbing the handle of the Rev Blade and flying with the blade towards him as he managed to make a swing for Tager's chest, slashing it successfully as Tager's mind barely registered what had happened.
"Did...Did you just see that Professor?" Tager said, any anger he felt for the utter disrespect for the historical displays in the museum gone and replaced with utter confusion as Kokonoe herself had managed to catch a glimpse of what had happened, stunned by what she had seen. "I...I did. He...he was clearly running for the weapon so how..." Kokonoe's mind was struggling to process the events that had happened in front of her as Sora looked at the Rev Blade and quickly revved it, attracting Tager's attention.
"ENHANCED GEAR!" It shouted as Kokonoe immediately recognized the jingle that came out from the Rev Blade. Her eyes widened a bit in shock as she zoomed in on the weapon that Sora was using as for a brief moment, the lighting around the area had flickered. "No way... It can't be." Kokonoe muttered as she began to furiously type on her keyboard searching through the Sector Seven Database, using a live scan of the Rev Blade to sift through previous projects done by Sector Seven as she refused to believe what she was seeing.
As she did this, Tager couldn't help but feel a sense of caution loom in the air as Sora immediately came flying for him, swinging his blade several times as Tager could still sense some electricity coming from the blade, enough for one last magnetism as he allowed Sora to get extremely close before doing so, throwing his attack off course as he went for a chop aimed at Sora's neck to quickly end his life.
As he did so, his eyes at the last minute noticed a small smirk coming from Sora's face as his hand reached for the brake handle of the Rev blade and held it down before Sora twisted his wrist, revving the blade once again as he willingly released the blade towards Tager before kicking him in the face, deflecting his chop away from his neck and putting a massive amount of distance away from the Red Devil as Tager felt the weapon land onto his hands.
"Tager! You got the weapon! Now destroy it!" Kokonoe ordered, realizing what it was but silence came out of Tager's lips. "Tager! You heard me right! Destroy the sword now!" Kokonoe ordered as she finally got a glimpse of Tager's face and saw the small dread that had built up on his face. "Kokonoe... You are not going to believe me when I say this... But...I'm not holding a blade right now." Tager said as he slowly turned to look at what he was holding, not feeling a massive sharp blade in his hands right now...but something completely different.
"I'm...I'm holding an arm for some reason!" Tager said in surprise as Kokonoe's face paled when she saw what the blade had become and realized who had constructed the weapon as her sensors immediately lit up as she realized Tager was still in danger. "ABOVE YOU!" Kokonoe yelled as Tager looked up immediately upon hearing that and saw Sora on top of the Tyrannosaurus Rex's skull, pulling out a sharp knife and cutting the supports that held the head in place as Sora went into a free fall with the skull.
"OH NO!" Tager yelled, his first instinct being to catch the skull before it landed on him as he dropped the arm that he was holding at the heat of the moment and began to direct all of his electrical energy into magnetizing the falling dinosaur skull. As he did that, he felt two pairs of feet land on his back and push off, instantly realizing who could have done that as Tager managed to safely retrieve the skull before it could crash right through him as he turned behind him and saw Sora holding the arm in question as he now had a better look of said arm now that the initial shock had worn off.
The arm did not look like just a normal arm like what most mechanical arms were built and designed for. The arm instead looked more unnatural, with vents at the end of each finger tip and the motorcycle handle and brake of the Rev Blade now rested on top of the mechanical arm, folded into the arm itself and having it's own crevice to rest in as various vents were carved into the arm itself and not just at the fingertips. The palm of the hand had a massive open vent, as it to discharge something as Sora held the had up towards Tager.
"Thanks for taking care of my arm." Sora said in a calm manner as the device attached to his stump activated, furling out to form a skeleton arm as Sora shoved the entire thing into the skeleton arm, causing clamps to come out and connect the mechanical arm with the skeleton arm as Sora didn't even wince a bit as the arm began to vent out a strange substance out as Sora began to stretch his newly attached arm.
"Professor... what in the hell am I looking at." Tager said in pure shock at what he was witnessing as Kokonoe finally pulled out the schematics of the weapon that Sora was using. "What you're looking at Tager is the first prototype of a weapon that is capable of becoming a limb... It's true purpose is to act as a seithr absorber." Kokonoe said, surprising Tager as he quickly remembered the flickering lights when Sora revved the blade.
"So you're telling me he can use that weapon to absorb the Seithr into the area? Isn't that impossible!?" Tager exclaimed in shock as Kokonoe nodded her head. "Of course it is...because I made sure the project wasn't even allowed to get off the ground. It should have been completely dead with all of the red tape I did!" Kokonoe said as Tager himself was starting to struggle with what was going on. "For now, Be careful when he revs that thing! he's going to start taking away the Seithr in the area." Kokonoe warned as while Tager and Kokonoe were in the middle of this, Sora couldn't help but stare at his new arm with a bit of glee as he gave a few practice punches with it.
'Man... Did Caroline really make this Rev Arm sing. It feels so much better than the prototype she made me use for so long!' Sora thought as he punched his fists together, making sure the connection was solid as he immediately charged for Tager, deciding to really start pushing the Rev Arm through it's paces as his Rev Arm soon clashed fists with Tager's iron gauntlets, easily pushing them to the side as Sora was able to land a quick knee to Tager's chest as a result.
"His punch overpowered my fist?!" Tager thought in surprise as Kokonoe was rifling through any data she could get on the Rev Blade and Arm as she suddenly felt the phone on her desk ring as she picked it up in a bad mood. "What do you want right now! I am busy!" Kokonoe shouted as the voice through the phone simply chuckled. "Well. You really do seem busy right now Professor... or should I just say Kokonoe." the Voice said as Kokonoe quickly realized who it was.
"How the hell did you even this number Caroline?" Kokonoe said as in a separate laboratory in Otsu sat a woman in her chair, holding said phone on her left hand. Her voluptuous body made it easy for people to think that she was merely cosplaying as a scientist as she stroked her long blonde hair that she had tied into a ponytail before pushing up her red glasses. Her top exposed a bit of her breasts and her skirt had a slit by the right side to expose some thigh as the woman, Caroline Patricia Smith smiled through the phone.
Caroline: Well, I do have my ways. I mean, working in Otsu after all does come with it's own benefits, like an elite hacking team
Kokonoe: I should have figured that you are still alive. Even after you went missing when the NOL branch in Otsu was forced to close down.
Caroline: Of course I am, I had absolutely nothing after you did everything in your power to end my career in Sector Seven. I went to the NOL to try and get my work off there but with the whole revolution happening on the very first day, let's just say that my boss was kind enough to get me a job.
Kokonoe: As if I care about your sob story. What I want to know is how on Earth did you manage to finish the Rev System. I did everything in my power to make sure you couldn't get what you need to complete it.
Caroline: Of course you did, but for the legal channels. But here in Otsu, I can get whatever I want whenever I want and it's thanks to my Boss's connections. After all, this is Otsu, a free state where criminals can do whatever they want.
Kokonoe: You cocky little bitch, Do you realize what you have just done?!
"Do I look like I care about your little moral lecture!?" Caroline yelled, catching Kokonoe off guard as Kokonoe remembered Caroline as more meek and less assertive as she was being currently. "To this very day I still don't know why you tried so hard to stop my life's work. All I wanted to do was invent a device that could be used to clear the seithr that laid underneath our world. But you rejected my idea and instead of telling me why, you abused your power to get me kicked out of Sector Seven! I don't care who you are or who you parents may be, to me you're just one pretentious little bitch!" Caroline yelled, the anger she felt for so many years came swelling into her passionate speech as she tried to calm herself down to no avail.
"BOSS! SHOW MY BITCH OF A FORMER COLLEAGUE AND HER HUNK OF JUNK WHAT THE REV SYSTEM CAN DO!" Caroline yelled, hacking through Tager's communications for a brief moment to relay that message to Sora as he scratched his head. "Well... if you say so Caroline. I guess I am obliged to go all out for you." Sora said calmly, twisting the Rev Arm's wrist several times as the motorcycle handle and brake came out of it's crevice and swung around till Sora can grab and begin to rev on it, causing some of the Ars Magus lighting around the area to burst as Kokonoe pulled out her seithr readings.
"Seithr in the area's dropping! Tager watch out!" Kokonoe warned as Sora revved the arm once again, breaking even more ars magus lights as the emergency power for the building kicked in. "DISTORTION GEAR!" The arm yelled out as Sora soon charged towards Tager, slamming the gear back into the crevice and causing the seithr that he had collected to flow into him as Tager tried to intercept Sora by slamming his hands together to pancake him.
His attack whiffed however as he looked to the sky and saw Sora already descending towards him with a bicycle kick which forced Tager to block as Sora began to leverage the power in the Rev arm to begin pushing back against the gigantic foe in front of him. As he landed one of his punches right in front of the Red Devil's face, Sora grinned a bit before quickly dispelling out some seithr from the palm of the Rev arm, spraying it out as a mist that blinded Tager for a brief moment as Sora retreated into cover.
"Tager, I don't care if you have to level the place to do so, I am giving you permission to go all out!" Kokonoe yelled, determined to end this fight quickly as time was of the essence. Tager, realizing the gravity of the situation if his boss would allow the use of destructive force obliged as he began to charge up with even more electrical energy, as the area around Sora began to spark like electricity. 'Shit, he's going to use that magnetism trick again. And something tells me it's going to be even more powerful than before.' Sora thought as he opened the rev arm's motorcycle handle and began to rev twice.
As soon as he did that, he felt himself getting swept off his feet as he flew right towards Tager as he had one of his hands out ready to catch him. Something told Sora if he got caught by that that would be bad so he needed to act quickly. As he revved the handle a third time, the room around them suddenly became black as Sora slammed the handle back into the crevice. "ASTRAL GEAR!" The rev arm shouted as Sora's eyes flicked for a brief moment as he saw what would happen if he did get grabbed by that hand.
In his head, he saw himself being flow all the way into the sky before meeting an explosive end at the ground beneath him. In his mind, he knew that would kill him instantly as he saw a possibility that he could take and knew he had to take it. As he did so, his right eye flickered with an azure green light as he dived right between Tager's feet, completely bypassing Tager's magnetism as in real time, Tager and Kokonoe were finally able to clearly see what was starting to become very obvious to them.
"That disappearing and reappearing trick the kid's been doing. That's his drive!" Kokonoe warned as Tager immediately looked below to see Sora sliding right between his legs as he used his free hand to try and quickly intercept Sora but he was too slow to react and exposed himself in the process. Sora, having recovered at this point, punched with the Rev Arm right at Tager's back, sending him flying towards the Tyrannosaurus exhibit, destroying the skull before Tager stopped just in front of the rest of the artifact as his sensors got damaged by that one attack.
"Kokonoe! Is there any way to intercept the target's drive?" Tager questioned as Kokonoe was already trying to analyze the confusing data that was in front of her. She had thought it was super speed so she was trying to play the video in micro seconds, hoping to catch Sora when he would speed up to the speed of light. But that was not the case, the second he slid under Tager's legs was the same second he was running, there was no super speed in play but something entirely different.
"I am trying to find out what that is! it's not hyper speed and it's not looking like any kind of teleportation I am familiar with. This is something entirely different!" Kokonoe yelled as Sora looked at the Rev Arm as he could feel the seithr flowing within him. Before he would be limited by how much seithr was inside him and in the area around him, but with this device that he had paid Caroline to build him, he could simply just store seithr in the area around him and super charge his own moves that way.
'Man...it feels like this thing was built for me in a way… well no time for me to dwell on that, it's time to finish this fight.' Sora thought as he began to rev the arm once again. Tager, now knowing just how dangerous the device really was, launched a ball of electrical energy to try and intercept Sora before he could finish gathering the area's seithr as Kokonoe noticed something in the readings. As the area's level of seithr decreased, Sora's level of Seithr increased to dangerous levels yet he was not breaking down like most people who have high levels of Seithr. Instead it was building up even more past the normal levels, building into levels she never thought could be possible.
'Just what is even going on...' Kokonoe thought as Sora quickly raised his rev arm to release a blast of Seithr to intercept the ball of electricity, revving the arm three times before clicking on the brake and slamming it back to the crevice. "ASTRAL FINISH!" The arm yelled as Sora grabbed the fist, feeling a massive swelling of energy swell through the Rev arm as he struggled to retain the energy inside. At this point, Tager knew that all he could do was try to brace for what was to come next.
As Sora began to run for Tager, he felt his phone vibrate three times before it stopped, telling him what he needed to know as he ran faster than ever before, faster than he even knew was even possible as he managed to slip the rev arm pass Tager's guard, palming it right at Tager's chest as Sora felt a massive discharge of seithr waiting to come out as Tager looked at the Rev Arm. Tager could barely get a word in as Sora couldn't hold it in anymore.
"KAZE NO UNARI!" Sora yelled as he released the massive build up of Seithr that he had collected right into the Red Devil's chest, pulling the rest of the surrounding seithr into his chest as he flew right into the tyrannosaurus exhibit, smashing the whole exhibit to bits as Kokonoe's screen went blank temporarily. "Tager! TAGER!" Kokonoe yelled, wondering what was going on as she tried to get the visual screen back. As she did so, her eyes looked right at the screen with the Otsu 4 heads and realized that she had taken her attention away from the squad for too long.
"Hello? Is there someone through this tiny communicator watching?!" Vlad yelled, as Kokonoe saw the men she had asked for, tied up with the helmet of one of the soldiers now placed on the table where she could clearly see the four heads of Otsu, with Vlad tapping on the camera and looking at it with curiosity. "Will you stop doing that Vlad, I am pretty sure they can hear us." Tetsu calmly explained as Vlad grinned.
"Well if they are, they aren't responding right now." Vlad explained as Kokonoe felt her blood run cold for a bit. This was simply becoming easily her worst day ever as she decided to talk with these guys. "How on Earth did you guys know about the squad I sent you." Kokonoe questioned as she worked double time to fix Tager's sensors while talking with the heads. "Well… when you rule a city of criminals, we own everything...especially the city's security cameras." Tetsu explained as Kokonoe face palmed, unable to believe that she of all people would let something as simple as security cameras fly past her mind.
'Dammit, in all of my haste to make sure I covered my tracks I fucking forgot the most basic shit! I can't believe I am getting this damn sloppy!' Kokonoe thought, slamming her fist on her table as she reached out for a lollipop to calm herself down as she took a couple of deep breathes before knowing what she needed to do. "What do you guys want?" Kokonoe questioned as Sofia smiled and leaned in forward.
"Well...first of all, we want to know why you murdered our couriers Professor. That was not part of the deal. Are you trying to hide shit from us?" Sofia questioned, getting straight to the point as Kokonoe bit her lips, her mind racing to think of what she could say at this point as she knew that if she answered wrong, there would be blood on her hands, blood that she didn't need right now as she rubbed her forehead several times.
"Yes, I was trying to hide shit from you lot. Shit that I wanted to make sure stayed personal. That's all." Kokonoe said as she waited with bated breath for the response. "Well… that's the former SSS ranked criminal for you. Covering up her tracks like usual." Zhang Pi said as Kokonoe's eyes widened at hear that. "What? Do you really think we would just accept a job for the Professor Kokonoe without making sure to dig up any history she may have wanted people to not know. Bold move of you to delete your own bounty off the NOL mainframe. One wrong step and they would have got you right then and there." Zhang Pi complimented as Kokonoe's day was just becoming worse.
"I am so glad that you four know of my criminal past. Can we move on to the whole demands that you have for me to repay for murdering your couriers? I don't really have much time right now." Kokonoe asked, just wanting to cut to the chase and forget her grave mistake. The four heads simply smirked as they looked at each other before Vlad decided to answer. "Well now… since you murdered at least a couple of couriers, then tried to hack into our systems to delete data. I say that a proper payment would be for you to give us one of your top secret Sector Seven technologies for us to use. We are growing city after all and having some of Sector Seven's science will bring us closer to self reliance." Vlad explained as Kokonoe tched at that.
"We are interested in learning more about this Idea Engine of yours." The moment Kokonoe heard those two words come out of Vlad's mouth, Kokonoe felt her fight and flight response kick in. How did a bunch of criminals know about the Idea Engine of all things. "I am not in any hell going to give you guys any details about that. Pick something else." Kokonoe retorted immediately with some venom as the Otsu 4 heads looked at each other before Vlad shrugged.
"In that case, what about some other Sector Seven tech that has of equal value to the Idea Engine that you don't mind divulging." Tetsu questioned as Kokonoe was surprised by how quick they were to give up on asking about the Idea Engine. "I guess we can work something out from that… I'll send you the files of what I can find and you lot can pick what you want. So… Are we done here?" Kokonoe questioned, just wanting to get on to her next job, not wanting to waste time with criminals any longer.
"We are done for now… thanks for using our services this whole time, Professor." And with Sofia's last words, Vlad turned off the communicator as he pulled out the phone and rang a number which was soon picked up. "The job's done Comrade Minakaze. Thank you for your hard work!" Vlad praised as Sora was scratching his head, looking around the pitch black museum as he wondered if he had gone a bit too overboard with the Rev Arm before the emergency power kicked in.
"That's good to hear. Just wire the money to Pikaka and I am happy." Sora said as he smiled before hanging up the phone and patting Tager's back who he had to pull out from the wreckage. "Sorry about the whole fighting thing. Just our bosses being petty that's all." Sora said, apologizing to the big red man who surprisingly did not look as injured as he should have been. "You were holding back weren't you… why didn't you just kill me then and there with that astral?" Tager questioned as Sora closed his eyes and sat next to Tager.
"Because I was doing my job. And I don't take jobs that require me to kill people. Those days are long behind me and I want to do something different with my life that doesn't involve unnecessary bloodshed." Sora explained as he raised the Rev Arm into the air. "I want to live a life that I can be proud of...a life that I know other people can be happy with. I may take these odd jobs for now but someday I want to discover what is my place in this world and right now. I'm just traveling around, searching for that purpose." Sora continued as he looked at Tager.
"So why do you use such a dangerous system right now? You are aware of seithr poisoning right?" Tager questioned as Sora looked at the Rev Arm before grabbing the motorcycle handle and pressing on the brake, causing the arm to disconnect as the arm furled back into it's sword form while the skeleton arm did the same, folding itself back to the small compact shape that fit itself around his stump.
"I have a bit of a unique condition...that's all I want to say for now. But regardless, at least with this thing, I can still fight while maintain my way of peace. My only wish really is to live out the rest of my days in relative peace with the occasional action here and there." Sora said with a bit of a smile as Tager's comms kicked in, allowing Sora to hear Kokonoe's voice through him. "Tager, we've got to get going right now. I'll help you reboot your systems." Kokonoe said as Tager nodded his head before standing up, preparing to leave.
"Wait...before we go…. Tell me, who the hell are you?" Kokonoe questioned, making Sora point his finger to himself wondering if that question was directed to him. "Uhhh… Sora Minakaze. Why?" Sora questioned as Kokonoe paused for a moment before clearing her throat. "Just wanted to know. Let's go Tager." Kokonoe said as Tager did not waste any more time and left Sora seated on the ruins of their fight as he scratched his head.
"Well that was awkward..." Sora said to himself as he noticed something lying on the ground and reached out for it. Picking it up, he realized he was holding a pill bottle containing a strange red pill as he looked at it with curiosity? "Did Tager just drop this? Maybe I should return this to him." Sora said to himself but the moment he looked back where Tager had went, he realized that Tager was long gone. "Oh well… I guess I can always give it back to him when I see him again." Sora said as he decided to relax among the rubble before he began his exploration of Kagutsuchi.
...Curious to see what this town has in store for him…
"So is he the one that you were talking about Professor? The one that our recent contact was talking about?" Tager questioned as at this point, he was standing on top of a rooftop, surveying the city of Kagutsuchi from his high vantage point as Kokonoe was busy checking for the name Sora Minakaze only to hit no results. "Yup… that's the one the contact was talking about…" Kokonoe said, rubbing her forehead as she realized that she was starting to get herself into trouble that she was not expecting. "She will be coming in tomorrow to give you the information I need, we will have to change the venue because that museum's too wrecked for us to do anything in there." Kokonoe explained.
"Understood. And what if I were to meet with Mr Minakaze again in the city? It seems that he will be here for a while longer before leaving." Tager questioned as Kokonoe thought about what Tager should do. "Don't bother talking to him let alone pick a fight against that guy. With the rev system, the last thing we need is for him to drain the whole city of Kagutsuchi out of seithr and potentially cause a whole new crisis. I think we should let the contact know about him and let her handle that mess." Kokonoe answered as Tager was satisfied with that answer.
"Permission to be honest Professor? That man is quite abnormal… with how much seithr his whole body is housing." Tager said as Kokonoe pulled out the seithr readings that Tager was able to get before he left. "You're right, with the amount of seithr that kid has in him, he might as well be a walking nuclear reactor. Regardless, I don't really want to meet him again, just don't like him." Kokonoe said as she sucked on her candy while Tager simply nodded his head. "You're not the only one professor..." Tager said as his mind only went to one thing.
...Just how many priceless artifacts were needlessly destroyed during that fight….
GREETINGS LOST SHEEP OF FANFICTION!? HOW IS EVERYONE DOING!? I Know this is very early for me to post a chapter and there's actually two good reasons why. First, I was well really inspired to write this chapter so I wanted to write as much of it as possible. The second reason? This whole month of September is going to be a bit of a busy month with me going to work on my university assignments so I want to make sure that I let you guys know that I may not be able to post as early as possible.
