AC: Hello everyone. Sorry it took two weeks to complete it, but I didn't have my computer for a while, so I couldn't write anything because I didn't have my safe file of this chapter.
If you want to know if I've complete the next chapter or how much I progress when I don't finish it at the right time, which is Sunday. You can PM me about it and asked when it's going to be done, but please, don't ask it on the review.
I like and expect receiving reviews with little details like what you liked or not, but asking for when the other chapter is ready feels like a letdown when I'm looking for what comment I would receive. It's not hurting my motivation for the story.
Kyoya took his cellphone and called someone as he walked through the long corridor of his home. He waited for someone to answer.
A girl voice answered and said, "-Hello.-"
"Hello Terumi Kuchinawa," Kyoya said with a small smile.
"-Master Kyoya!-" she replied surprised, but quickly regained her composure, "-What is it?-"
"It seems that Azi is starting to get a little impatient with Kiri's mental resilience to the Disaster Force," Kyoya said.
Terumi replied, "-I notice the boy constantly having headache. I thought it was working just as expected. I know he still has it on his deck.-"
Kyoya then said, "Kiri's is a special case as Azi said. He had strong mental resistance, but it's been too long and someone might try something like destroying the Disaster Force eventually in hope of ending his pain."
Terumi apparently understood as she replied, "-You wish that I accelerate the procedure by destroying his mental protection?-"
"Yes. We should be sure that the Disaster Force starts affecting his mind soon. Also, I think we shouldn't let him suffer like that any longer," Kyoya replied.
"-Understood. I'll use my Disaster Force to accomplish my mission.-"
"Oh. I was wondering if anything happened to Gao yet? You've been watching them since Rouga cannot go to school anymore."
"-Nothing is happening right now. Is Gao also a special case?-" Terumi asked.
"As Azi said, yes, but in a different way. I think the Disaster Force has more trouble starting to affect Gao."
"Anything else master Kyoya?"
"No. This shall be all," Kyoya said as they both hung up. He put his hand over his face and said, "I wonder why it's taking more time to affect Gao than Kiri. Maybe it's his incredible magic energy he has in him, just like me."
Chapter 61: Tetsuya Was In Her Way
Terumi Kuchinawa was walking toward the playground and searched for Kiri to accomplish her mission. She was a girl with peach skin, red hair and green eyes with glasses. She wore a dark blue shirt and a pale blue overall. She walked around the students and avoided stopping anyone from doing their regular stuff. She knew that interrupting them will slow her down and might miss the chance of crossing Kiri's path.
She didn't know his schedule, but knew that he hanged out in the playground with Joker. His buddy is thinking that fresh hair might help him end his headache. That silly buddy doesn't know it won't work.
She searched around and she finally saw him sitting on a chair with his frozen buddy by his side. Joker was looking worryingly at Kiri's and spoke to the boy about things that didn't interest Terumi.
She put her hands in her gray stick with a Disaster Core on it. She walked closer and took out a special spellcard made for this situation. She remembered about this spellcard and was the only one who had the type of energy that allowed using mental spells on someone else among the organisation. She discreetly took out her spellcard from her stick and let them outside their sight, especially Joker.
She walked closer to them. She hid her smile as she was pretty close to them. Bot where oblivious to her approach and when she was closed, she prepared her spellcard when.
"Let's do this Yo!" someone yelled and distracted her. She saw the two other's turning their head and her stick and cards in the handle of her shirt. She turned around and saw Tetsuya and his buddy Asmodai dancing together with a radio by their side.
The music annoyed her and she looked at them. She wanted to shut at them but,
"Can you lower the music?" Joker asked as he checked on his buddy, "The music isn't helping his headache."
"Sorry," Asmodai replied with a small grin as they lowered the volume.
Terumi realised she couldn't do anything with those two who will surely see her. Curse those two idiots. I cannot do anything as long as they are here and I don't know when they leave.
She walked away, knowing it will be strange to stand around while they were present. She forced herself not to glare toward Tetsuya and Asmodai, she wanted to be someone not easily noticeable by anyone.
I'll get Kiri another time. I still have time for this.
A few hours later, Terumi noticed it was lunch time. She searched for Kiri and saw he wasn't with his friends on the roof today, so she saw an opportunity to accomplish her mission. I won't have those two in the way this time, she thought with a smile inside herself.
It wasn't long before she found him on the field with his buddy Joker. Kiri was eating while his buddy tried to cheer him up and helped with his headache.
Terumi casually walked toward them, hiding her intentions like an expert. She didn't need look at them, knowing where they were. She was getting closer to her target. Both of them weren't expecting anything to happen to Kiri. She prepared her stick, she was still fat from them, but the distance was starting to get smaller. She prepared her spell and was ready to cast it when something interrupted her.
She heard Tetsuya and Asmodai singing, but without the radio this time. They weren't getting Kiri's or Joker attention this time and she prepared her spell. Eventually, their song was starting to hurt her head once again.
She grunted painfully and whispered, "What is going on with me?"
The duo continued singing and dancing. She couldn't cast her spell and couldn't focus her energy in it. She put her hand on her forehead and hid her stick.
"I can't-" she turned toward the duo who continued singing and dancing. She wanted to yell at them or tell something, but didn't. She walked away in annoyance and fury. When she was far enough and couldn't hear them, her headache calmed down. "What was that? Why can't I focus when they are there?" she asked herself. She turned around and saw the duo continuing dancing. She contained her frustrations toward them, but it wasn't that easy this time. She wondered how she should approach Kiri without being suspicious and those two wouldn't be around.
Sadly for her, the next two days weren't going her way at all. Whatever she was doing, Tetsuya and Asmodai always danced around and broke her focus.
She tried approaching Kiri and casually talked to him, so she could use the spell while Kiri and Joker lowered their guard, but the duo appeared while they practiced their dance when she was midway and she continued, enduring the pain in her mind.
Another time, she saw him with Gao and decided to brought something for them to eat. She gave it to them, but the duo came and messed it up. She had a headache again and Gao kindly brought her to the nurse while Joker scolded at the duo.
The last thing she tried ended up the same way. She was alone, her face lightly red, having trouble maintaining her composure, Those two annoying... I can't even find an insult to express what I'm thinking of them! I need to get rid of them before trying to use the spell on Kiri and I won't ask anyone's help, especially not Shido. I guess I'll have to get serious against them, but I cannot let them see my face or I will end up moving elsewhere like Rouga and that cannot happen since I will surely do the same thing with Gao.
Terumi walked in her school with her large bag on her shoulder. She tried to look as casual and normal as possible. She was standing out a little, but nothing suspicious. She only caused curiosity. Once she was in the school she walked somewhere discreet and changed herself into someone no one would recognised. That way, her identity will be protected. She also took off her glasses, decided that she wouldn't hesitate against those two annoyances.
She walked out with a gray suit with a black belt, looking a little like a soldier. She wore a skull mask and red lens to change her eye color. She walked outside the school and searched for Tetsuya and Asmodai to be sure they were out of her way.
"I'm going to des-" she stopped talking when she saw Gallows looking at her with his iris expanding.
They looked at each other's silently and Terumi found it awkward and he made her a little nervous. If he spoke too loudly, she might get busted and ending up with a reputation she didn't want to imagine what it would be.
Gallows pointed his claw toward her and said, "You silly human. Halloween isn't today," he then flew away and grumbled, "The more I know humans, the crazier they are and that makes me feel like I'm normal in your term," he sighed before she lost sight of him.
Terumi was glad he didn't recognised her, but pissed off he called him a silly human, because she knew he meant insane because he had to tone down his speech by Azi order.
She pushed that thought aside and searched for Tetsuya.
She looked around and had some trouble finding him, while evading any contact with the other students or buddies around.
When I don't want to find them, they are here, but when I'm searching for them, they are nowhere! What is this about? Terumi grunted mentally after a while. She did come earlier before class and hoped to catch them before class, but it might not be the case. That was until she saw them just finishing climbing the escalator.
Terumi smiled behind her mask. She was ready to make them pay for what they did. She was about too, but thought back and decided to wait for Tetsuya to be alone. She realised she couldn't handle both of them with her spellcard if Asmodai could stop her. She patiently waited for them to split. It wasn't too long before they both went their own ways. Terumi followed Tetsuya while lightly attracting the attentions of the other students, hurrying up to class as they realised it was about to begin.
Tetsuya was among the last student to walk toward the entrance of the school, but Terumi, behind her mask, grabbed the boy's collar and said, "You don't need to go in school right now."
"But I can't be late yo!" Tetsuya replied, not taking it as a threat. The boy collar slipped from her fingers and was about to walk in the school when he was stopped, "Why can't I move?"
"Because I stopped you," Terumi replied with a spellcard shining at the end of her stick.
Spellcard, Tetsuya realised pretty fast, "Let me go now Miss under a mask."
"Don't call me that! I'm... I'm-" she realised she didn't have a name when she was disguised. She eventually replied, "You don't have to know!" She walked in front of the boy.
"Why are you doing this to me? I never saw you before and I think I would have notice you yo," Tetsuya asked, trying to move or grab his spellcard.
"Do not try to grab a spellcard or try to escape me," she warned him. She then said, "You want to know why I'm doing this to you? Well I don't need to tell you! I'm just going to get rid of you!"
"Rid of me? You can't do that yo!" Tetsuya yelled.
Terumi took out another spellcard and furiously said, "You are a nuisance to me. You are always in my way!"
"I did nothing yo! Just let me go!" Tetsuya nervously said while his hand managed to move a little closer to his deck.
"Do not worry, I won't kill you," she said with her eyes shining with malevolent intention, "You just have to be out of my way and stop hurting me."
"W-" Tetsuya was cut when the spell ended on him and she threw another spell. The boy closed his eyes in reflex, but the spell never came.
Asmodai was behind Terumi and grabbed her arm while cutting the energy to feed the spellcard with his magical ability.
"Asmodai!" Tetsuya said with a relief smile, "What are you doing here yo?"
"I just waited for her to reveal her intention, but I won't let her harm you in any way," Asmodai replied.
"You knew I was here," Terumi said surprised.
"I can feel your aura, asking you to eliminate us, in a way," the demon replied.
Terumi freed her hand, but the demon got her spellcard.
"Why are you after us masked girl?" Asmodai asked, although, Terumi didn't feel push by the question as if he knew something.
Maybe he's just enraging me, she thought.
"Yeah. You attacked me without any reason yo," Tetsuya replied.
"I have no reason to tell you anything," she replied furiously. She took out another spellcard from her deck and pointed to them, "I just can't stand any of you!" she let slip from her mouth. She said nothing else and casted the spell.
Tetsuya and Asmodai were blinded for a few seconds and when they looked around, she was gone.
"What was that all about yo?" Tetsuya asked confused.
Asmodai raised his shoulder, "I don't know myself. Maybe she has a crush on you or we did something annoying her without noticing it."
"Do you know what we might have done yo?" the boy asked.
Asmodai raised his shoulder with a smile, "Nope. We should see Kiri after class. We should cheer him with our dance."
"That annoy Joker," Tetsuya replied.
Asmodai grinned, "That's a bonus."
They went their own way.
Meanwhile, Terumi took off her clothing and grunted, "I didn't manage to get them or Kiri. Master Kyoya will be displease by this if I don't succeed soon," she thought about it and sighed, "I think I'll need some help after all. Maybe they are doing it on purpose. I need a distraction."
AC: This is the end of chapter 61.
