"This is commander Hughes of the Freeland special forces" the man on the helicopter said loudly through the megaphone
"You are trespassing in a restricted area" he said
"Peacefully surrender and follow us to our base for further questioning"
"If you don't, your life ends here"
"That's quite a generous offer" Orie replied at the top of his voice
"But I will have to decline" he said
"My anger has already been kindled towards you"
"So at this moment"
"I don't want peace"
"The only thing I want from you..."
"...is problem"
"The only thing I want from you..."
"...is conflict"
"The only thing I want from you..."
"...is blood"
"So look here, commander Hugh or commander Jackman or whatever you call yourself"
"Don't think you can get me just because you got the jump on Matéo"
Meanwhile, the fight between Mia and Genji was still at it's beginning.
Mia wasn't as fast as she used to be an her strikes carried less weight but she was still strong enough to bring down all the beasts that Genji sent her way.
Genji fought by summoning untamed beast. Beast are hard to to train but are quite easy to trap so Genji Genji fought by trapping many untamed beasts and summoning them in strategic positions where the first thing that the beasts will see and attack would be his opponent. He traps the beasts in a special paper and places them in any place he chooses and he can release any of the beasts at will.
Genji was able to maintain his distance with his numerous wild beasts and if Mia got close, he immediately evaded with ease. He had the advantage of distance and was still fast enough to dodge all of Mia's attacks when she came. He controlled the rhythm of the fight and everything seemed to be going in his favor but he was still bothered by the fact that Mia could still take on his beasts despite the amount of time that had passed. he had the upper hand in the battle but it didn't seem like he could bring it to and end.
On the other hand, Orie had started trouble with the army. The first person he darted to was Commander Hughes. He leaped with great force towards the leader of the special forces but the helicopter stirred clear at the nick of time and the rest of the force opened fire on him.
The soldiers could understand that their attacks weren't getting to Yamato because he was blocking with his water barrier but they couldn't understand Orie's case. Their attacks couldn't hit him and it didn't seem to them like he was moving fast enough to evaded all their shots. They just stood baffled as he ran around the the field reducing their numbers.
The soldiers fired with all their precision and skill but still couldn't get to Orie. Even when he was close enough that no one wouldn't expect to miss, the shots still couldn't still get to him.
It took just one hit for Orie to down his opponents. Whether he was punching, kicking, throwing, or whatever style he applied, no one that he touched got up again.
"Fire the missiles" commander Hughes ordered through his walkie-talkie
"But sir" a voice from the other side said
"Our men are still in there"
"JUST FIRE IT!!!" he yelled
"Yes sir" the voice answered
Not long after, as Orie was still dealing with the foot soldiers, a barrage of missiles fell on the entire field. As the entire place was being bombarded, Orie wondered "shouldn't they have tried the tanks first"
The fight between Mia and Genji was on a short pause. Genji had run out of paper and all his beasts had been taken down.
Mia on the other hand seemed to be out of energy. She was down on one knee and stuck her sword to the ground for support. She suffered no serious injury. She had incurred a few cuts and bruises but that was all. Her major issue was that she was out of breath.
"I may be out of paper" Genji said
"But I'm still full of energy"
"You on the other hand, are completely burnt out"
"I'd tell you to give up but I know you would say no"
"So I'm going to break you"
"Hmm" Mia sniggered
"You're right about me not giving up"
"But you forgot to add one more part" she said as she slowly stood up
"THE PART WHERE I WIN!!" she yelled as she summoned her last strength and charged at Genji
SHIN SEKAI SECRET: There are areas called forbidden zones where the most dangerous of creatures dwell. They are covered in darkness even at high noon and they cover about thirty percent of the world's land area. There are rumors of similar places under the sea but none has been reported yet.
In a field covered in smoke, there was a weird kind of silence. It wasn't that sounds could not be heard but that they could be heard clearly. The most prominent of those sounds was the sound of the helicopters that hovered above the field. "H3, what's your status" Hughes spoke into his communication device "I see nothing sir" a voice replied from the other side "I have no eyes on the..." The voice said and suddenly stopped "H3" "H3" "H3, REPORT!!!" Hughes yelled into his device but there was no answer. Then he looked forward through the windshield of the cockpit and saw one of his helicopters turning to face him "Oh sh**" he said he jacked a parachute from the side and jumped out of the aircraft. "Summon the mage squad" he spoke into his device as he watched the helicopter he was on burst into flames. With a loud cry and all her might, Mia swung her sword at Genji with the intent of taking off his head but for some reason, her blade couldn't go thro
"I want a sword that helps keep me alive" "A sword that once held will help me to survive" "A sword I can strike with that helps evade all strikes" "A sword for a coward to help me win all fights" Such were the words that went through Mia's head as she swallowed the glowing blue pill. As she vanished from Genji's line of sight, she reached out her hand for a sword. The moment she grabbed the sword that came to her, pictures of events she never experienced began flooding her mind, alongside the pictures came voices and an odd feeling of rage that she was sure wasn't hers. It didn't take long for her to understand that those were the memories within the sword but that wasn't the strangest part Despite the fact that there was rage within the sword and herself, Mia was sure that the the it was telling her to hang it on her waist and bring out something else. At first, she didn't listen and used the sword to attack Genji but when he covered himself in scales, Mia u
"Freeland has a law that states "superhuman abilities and magic of all forms are prohibited from being practiced. Any civilian caught using their powers in public will be charged with terrorism and arrested immediately" It is claimed by the government that this law was put in place to prevent the great Meta incident that occurred twenty-five years earlier but the law wasn't doing anything to help the underclassed citizens of the country. There were people, those that the protection of the government couldn't reach. Those who lived with constant fear in neighborhoods with the highest rates of crime. Those who had the power to fight back but were forbidden to do so by law. Soon, people grew tired. Those who were brave enough put on masks and took on nicknames in order to do what was right, they were called superheroes." Naomi narrated then took a huge slurp from her milkshake. "I moved here to join and make a difference" she added as she took another huge slurp. "So
Three shots to the head. That was all it took for Orie to end the mage squad that was held in high regards in all of Freeland. It couldn't be called a battle, it couldn't even be called a face-off because they all lost their lives as soon as they set their eyes on him. As soon as he had offed the mage squad, he set his sights back at Hughes. The commander who had just regained himself tried to run away but immediately got shot in both legs and fell. As the commander crawled in futility, the bringer of his death walked slowly behind him. Meanwhile, Shiro had found himself lost in the middle of town. "So what do now?" He asked himself as he paced around with Lighting speed. "I mean..." He said "...I had it down to the escape part but now I don't what comes next" "I don't know where my friends are, I don't know where Genji is" "How do I even...." "STOP RIGHT THERE!!!" a voice yelled through a megaphone "PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR!!!" the voice yelled aga
Nega had a bit of a hard time getting back home but he was still the first to arrive. He sat on his chair in the same room he had met Orie and the others and proceeded to get a smoke. He made sure his blunt was rolled perfectly and searched himself for a lighter but couldn't find any. "Need a light?" A familiar voice said from the distance. He looked up to see someone he knew that he really needed at the moment. 'Philip Vaquero', arguably the greatest bounty hunter of his time with very few competition. With an almost perfect record, he made his way to the top spot in the bounty hunter world and what made him fearsome was that all his bounties were top tier and of the highest grade. So if Vaquero ever came for you, all you could do was hope that you were wanted alive. Such a fearsome man stood in front of Nega and called him "BOSS" with a casual salute and he reciprocated with a casual "yo" "You're quite early" Nega said as he reclined back on his chair "Well boss"
"If you ask questions that have already been asked, you will get answers you've already heard" "I find myself having to give answers to a question that has been asked many times" "A question with many answers" "An whatever action I take" "I would just be chosing amongst the multitudes of answers that have already been given" "What would you do if someone you love turned her blade against you?" "Do you strike back?" "Do you let them strike you?" "Do you find fault in them?" "Do you find fault yourself?" "Do you blame an enemy?" "Do you blame yourself?" "Many answers are given to this question" "But the only true answers are given by those who already made their choice" "Some would say that a gentleman would first try to initiate dialogue before drawing his sword" "But I am not a gentleman" "There is a creed i stand by for all situations" "If you want the story to go in your favor" "If you want to stand high at the end"
"OVERSHADOW", that is what was heard before the entire hall was thrown into a complete white-out. Everything was affected including the color of Mia's skin and hair. For a brief moment, Mia's expression showed that of one who was remorseful of her actions but it immediately switched back to the paleness it had before and she continued attacking Shiro. Her attacks had become sloppy. The intense color altering caused by Shiro's technique had a great effect on her ability to concentrate and differentiate the things in front of her and she found herself running into walls more often. "The real Mia would have figured this out by now" Shiro said in disappointment as he effortlessly evaded all her attacks. The battle stretched on and after a while, things started to regain thier normal appearance. The ominous figure in the dark made an observation. Even though he could see Shiro through a monitor, he could not feel a shred of his presence at all. The case was different a while ago
Mia recalled a conversation she once had with Shiro. She remembered asking him "if I ever turned my blade against you, what would you do?" And Shiro's answer was "I don't know" "I don't know if I could bring myself to fight against you" was Shiro's answer but it wasn't one that she approved of. "If I ever turn against you" she said "It would not be of my own will" "and I wouldn't be in my right mind" "So whatever happens" "Stop me" "Even if it means breaking my bones" As Mia recalled the event, she gave Shiro a piercing stare that carried the message "You thought I meant it literally?" and he gave back a look that said "well... I don't know what you're talking about" and her stare turned into a cold gaze. "Shiro dear" she said in a calm but threatening tone "You know I love you right?" She added and Shiro was like "oh shit!!" "But..." She said and Shiro already knew what was coming. "I'll surely get back at you for this" she said and Shir
