The Brightness and Loneliest Star (1)
[Kamiya's PoV]
I'm dreaming again
The dream was about a lonely little boy
He walked alone in Tokyo with no purpose, no hope of life, and no family, but there he have a reason to end all of this.
Night fell, he was still walking, now he had come to the village where he used to grow up, and when he wanted to drown himself, someone held his hand
"H-hey,don't die yet, you still have to see the new CD in my house!!"
And the dream ended
"Hey.....Y....."
"uughh...?"
What's that? why so noisy
"Are you all right?"
"I...I'm fine...it's just that my whole body feels like it's being bitten..."
"Just relax, maybe that's because side effects of Doctor Loki's research drug"
".....all...right...."
"Come on, get up, you have to eat soon and we will go to the training room"
Training....room?
"Okay....I'll be right away"
I still had a bit of consciousness, but parts of my body felt numb
But forget that, maybe because of yesterday's experiment, and at least it wasn't as bad as the first time
Eat and practice fast, so I can rest
*clank clank
"@$@$@#@?"
"$@$@&@#!!"
Did…that guard told us to go straight to the training room?
"let's go, You're done eating right?"
"...yes..."
Like yesterday, we lined up and what made the difference was the dismal situation, having lost one person
"By the way..."
"hm..?
"You haven't told me your name yet?"
Ah? Is it true? wait, I think so, she keeps calling me "you" or "human" like yesterday
"Forgive my rudeness...my name is Kamiya, Hyoudou Kamiya"
"Hyoudou.....Kamiya....."
"Yes, that's my name"
"...Nice to meet you, Hyoudou-kun!"
"Yes, nice to meet you"
Her lips curved, is knowing someone's name make her happy? But, to be honest I like her smile
but..... another Gate? we have arrived?
*The gate opened
.....so many children, are we the last one?
"Come on in, training is needed for us now, so nothing like yesterday happens."
I agree, yesterday was terrible
"Yo, isn't that Stella?"
? Who's he?
"Ah.....Rexa, did you just finish training?"
"Well that's it, they kinda disappoint me because their physique is so lacking"
"*sigh* you, cant compare a magic user's physique with a melee fighter physique!"
"But as long as there is physicality, all problems are solved!"
"God, where did you get that words?"
"I thought of it myself!!"
.....they are familiar with each other huh.....different from me who just came in, everyone has friends to talk to, even Chordino...it's better if I sit in the corner over there
"Ah-"
"? What is it? Is there any problem?"
"No...it's just that I was surprised to see someone in the corner here..."
"....."
"....."
This boy….seemed to have a resemblance to me, his blue eyes, and his brown hair.....reminds me of Issei, though there's a slight difference in color
After a while I sat down, and the boy was silent too
"....What's your name?"
"....Leon.."
"Leon huh....how long have you been here?"
"....about 5 months ago"
"Hm.....you've been here a long time, and by the way, how's your team?"
"My team is fine, we've worked together for quite a long time..."
"Oh, I see...."
It felt like a father asking his quiet son how things were at school
But strangely, we both enjoy this atmosphere
"Um...."
"?"
"Onii-san, how you get caught?"
"Just call me Kamiya, no need to use "Onii-san"
"....but you're older than me."
Woah, his thoughts were accurate too
"Fine, just call me whatever you want."
*nodded
"That's good. I was caught not because they wanted to catch me, it's just that I wanted to save someone who would be caught"
"....did...he managed to run away?"
"Yeah, I managed to make him run, and it's just that..... Fallen angels are too strong for a normal human like me, hahaha"
I can only laugh awkwardly
".....ordinary human?"
"yes....Is there any problem?"
"no, it's just...I can feel the demonic power as well as magic from your body…"
"? What do you mean?"
".....Forget it, maybe that's my imagination"
"hahaha, I was born from an ordinary human, how could I have Demonic power and magic"
Leon looked at me with curious eyes, and before he could say another word, Stella called out me
"Hyoudou-kun! let's practice with Rex, you have a good physique right?"
"...all right, I will. See you later Leon, hope to see you again"
"yes, me too, Kamiya Nii-san"
*nodded
"Yo, you're Kamiya that Stella was talking about? I heard you have a pretty good physique for an ordinary human."
"I take that as a compliment, but I'm only human, my physique is limited to my age."
"hm.....Well, I don't really care if you're human or not, let's spar with me!"
"...spar....?"
"yes, spar, I want to see how your human physique can withstand all the pain that Doctor Loki gave you"
"*sigh* Is there nothing else to prove it?"
"Nope! your spirit is how you really are!"
"Gosh, did it have to be like this?"
