The Sword of Red [1]

While Zero was returning from his home, some rather unusual things were unfolding at the academy. 

It was night, and the sound of someone's footsteps resounded in the night's quiet behind the Instrs building. 

With clean brown hair and a fair skin tone, the man carried a sword on his waist. He walked with an air of certainty around him, it was like the dark of night did not scare him at all. 

He walked a long way before he was into an isolated area, away from the rest of the campus where there was only plain ground. And then he stopped. 

His eyes were pinned at a certain something which was a distance of around a dozen of two meters. 

It was another man but since his face was on the other side, it was hard to recognize who it was. However, there was one thing which would seem strange to even a kid.
