Abnormality.

“Zakuya, do you notice any abnormality in the area you’re in?” Simch talk to Zakuya via the device on Zakuya’s ear, while he was on top of the roof.

“No, there’s nothing abnormality here.” Zakuya respond while he was in the roof.

“How about you Izumi?” Zakuya hear in the device in his ear.

“There’s nothing here too.” Futaba responds.

“Is that so, okay. Continue looking for an abnormality.”

“Yes, Senpai!” Zakuya, and Futaba respond.

After that they continue to look for an abnormality. Many minutes pass by, when Simch talk to the device.

“Hey, Zakuya. Do you see any abnormality there?”

When Zakuya hear Simch, he immediately looks everywhere to see if there’s an abnormality.

“No, I don’t see any Abnormality here.” Zakuya said.

“(This is bad, I need to get to him as soon as possible.)” Simch said in his mind, while holding a map that has a big abnormality near Zakuya.

“Zakuya, don’t do anything bad, okay. I’m coming.”

Zakuya, and Futaba were both shocked of what Simch tell Zakuya to do.

“Why? Is there something wrong?” Zakuya asks.

“Yeah, there’s a large abnormality near you!” When Futaba heard what Simch said, she immediately turns where Zakuya is, and she start to run, and jump roof to roof towards Zakuya.

“So don’t do anything, until I get there! I don’t want to lose another guildmates again.” Simch said.

Then suddenly Zakuya sees a guy with a whole body glitching.

“(Huh? What’s wrong with this guy?)” Zakuya said in his mind.

Suddenly the guy jump, and land through the roof, and now looking at Zakuya.

“He’s looking at me now.” Zakuya said.

When Simch hear what Zakuya said, he freaks out.

“What? Hey Zakuya! What is happening?!”

“A guy who looks like glitching. We’re looking at me.” Zakuya said, while looking at the guy.

“Zakuya! Get out of there now!” While Simch were talking Zakuya sees the guy tilted it’s head, and then smile.

“That’s the ABNORMALITY!” As Simch finished talking, the guy launch towards Zakuya. Zakuya immediately move to the side, by jumping to another roof. While he was in the midair Zakuya sees that the guy’s right arm turns into a sharp. Because Zakuya jump to dodge the guy’s right arm pierce through the roof. When Zakuya land to the other roof, the guy’s right arm was stack on the roof, but the guy’s right arm went back to its original form, and the guy was able to pull its arm out.

“Zakuya! What happen?! What was that loud sound?!” Simch said in the device.

“It attacks me.” Zakuya respond.

“What?! Zakuya stall it, until I get there!” Simch said.

“I will. Vegito!” Zakuya get his sword out.

After that the guy look at Zakuya while giving a creepy smile, then it attacks Zakuya.

“Huh—?”

The attack was so fast that Zakuya can only dodge. Zakuya move to the side to dodge the attack, as he dodge, Zakuya look at the guy, and the guy’s arm turns into black sharp thing, and it pierce to the roof, but it went back to its original form, and then look at Zakuya with a creepy smile.

“So fast.” Zakuya said after he lands. “Tsk! Flame Magic: Flame Wave!” Zakuya wave his sword upwards with its blade burning.

Zakuya watch as his attack, was deflected effortless, by the guy while it was giving him a creepy smile.

“(He just deflects my attack like that?)” After talking in his mind Zakuya get on his fighting pose, while he was a bit nervous. “(I’m going to enjoy this.)” Zakuya said in his mind with excited tone.

After that the guy start to attack Zakuya, but when Zakuya notice that the guy moves, he immediately runs away saying in his mind— “(I can’t fight him, where there’s a lot of people.)” Zakuya said that in his mind, because they we’re near a lot of people.

While Zakuya was running, he got attack the guy raise it’s left arm, and it became a sharp thing, and fired at Zakuya, but Zakuya raise his sword up, and he was able to block the attack. Then he continue running, while running Zakuya wave his sword down, and he look back to the monster who began to chase him.

“(That’s good follow me.)” Zakuya said in his mind, while running.

While Zakuya was running, the guy raises it’s both hands, and look at Zakuya. It shows some creepy smile, and then the guy’s hands become a sharp thing.

“Tsk! His going to shot me again?!” Zakuya said after seeing the guy’s arm become a sharp thing.

After that the guy fired at Zakuya, Zakuya move slightly to the side, and then duck, and continue running.

“(This is sucks, I can’t even counter attack.)” Zakuya said while running.

After that the guy fired the sharp thing at Zakuya again, and Zakuya swing his sword to deflect the attack, and after that Zakuya look up, with his eyes close, and he yells— “This is sucks!” While running.

After that Zakuya look to the guy again, and thinks of fast way to fight the guy. Then he thinks of a way.

“Hey, Simch. Where is the nearest forest here, or a place where there’s barely a people with?”

When Simch hear what Zakuya said, he was confused.

“Huh? Zakuya was are you trying to do.” Simch respond, while running.

“Just tell me.” Zakuya said.

“Okay, on your left side. There’s a field there. That there’s only a few people go. Zakuya what are you going to do.”

While Simch was talking, Zakuya interrupt him.

“Got it! Which means on my right side, behind this wall.” Zakuya said while running.

“What are you going to do? Zakuya?”

After Simch ask, Zakuya suddenly face the guy, and then he move close to the guy.

“I’m going to remake, what my master always does to me!” Zakuya lock his feet onto the guy, and then he touches the roof, and then he throws the guy so high using his feet.

When Zakuya does what he meant to do, Simch, and Futaba sees the guy in the midair. Zakuya smile, and said— “Here, I go!” And then he flout, and he follow the guy to the other side of the wall. Because of Zakuya’s kick, the guy flew up above the wall, and the guy land to the ground, face first.

Then Zakuya follow him up. Zakuya land to the ground, and immediately gets on his fighting stance. With his sword on his away from his enemy, indicating that he is on attack mode. After that the guy stand up, and it immediately points its both hands at Zakuya, while giving Zakuya a creepy smile. Then the guy’s arm extends, and Zakuya immediately notice it, and jump up to attack the guy.

“Flame Magic: Flame Horizontal Slash!” Zakuya swing his sword aiming for the guy’s head.

“(I got him now!)” Zakuya said in his mind.

When Zakuya’s blade was about to hit the guy’s neck, and the guy’s head shrink. Zakuya continue to swing his sword, and he miss.

“(What?!)” After that Zakuya continue to fall to the ground, but he immediately get back on his fighting stance. “(He can do that too?!)” Zakuya said in his mind, after he gets back on his fighting stance.

After that the guy’s room began to shrink back. Then the guy’s head went back to normal, and it rotate back to look at Zakuya with the same creepy smile.

While smiling the guy’s mouth suddenly opens, and a sharp thing come out, and it caught Zakuya off guard.

“(What? I need to dodge!)”

Zakuya notice the attack, when it was so close at him. Zakuya try to dodge by going to his right side, but he was hit on his left ear, and it cause for the device to fall.

“That attack caught me off guard, and the device falls off.” While talking Zakuya feels that there’s something flowing. Zakuya touch it, and it was liquid, Zakuya look at it, and it was blood.

“Blood.” After talking Zakuya look at the guy who was getting it’s sharp thing back in its mouth.

Zakuya decide to not go on his defense mode, and he stay in attack mode. After that the guy open its mouth again, and its hand extend, and attack Zakuya.

“Flame Magic: Flaming defense!” Zakuya swings his sword upwards, while his sword release some flame, and it erase the sharp thing that comes out of the guy’s mouth, and he just easily dodge the two arms of the guy.

“Now, for your both hands!” After that Zakuya proceed to cut both of the guy’s arm. After cutting both of guy’s arm. Zakuya move to cut the chest of the guy, since it can shrink. When Zakuya was closer, both of the guy’s hands are still coming back, and it see Zakuya so it’s head shrink, and when it notice that Zakuya were going to cut him in the chest, the guy instinctively move away, and because of that Zakuya only scratch the guy’s chest.

“Tsk!” Zakuya clench his fist, while distancing his sword away, after only scratching the guy’s chest. As Zakuya clench his fist, it releases flame, and then he punches the guy’s chest who was still moving away.

“Flame Fist!”

When the punch connect, air and shock wave comes out, and the guy’s crush to a big rock, and Zakuya falls to the ground. Zakuya immediately stand up, and he look at the guy, but he can’t clearly see because of the dust that his attack makes, if the guy we’re moving or not. After that Futaba arrived.

“Irumi, are you okay?”

Zakuya nods, and then Futaba talk.

“Senpai Luis, he’s okay.”

“Is that so, then wait for me there.” Then Futaba sees that Zakuya’s ear was bleeding.

“Are you sure you’re, okay?” Futaba asks. While Simch is asking— “What happened to Zakuya?”

While they were talking to each other, the guy was turning into something. While Zakuya, and Futaba was talking to each other, suddenly Zakuya was stab in his left shoulder, and Zakuya was pin to the wall.

“Argh!!! (Again! In my left shoulder!)” Zakuya yells.

“Irumi!!!” Futaba yells as she sees Zakuya we’re pin in the wall, by a black sharp thing. Then she look where the black sharp thing come from, and then she see the guy that Zakuya was fighting earlier was now cover by dark color, while glitching, and then it’s eyes was cover by dark color too, and it was levitating using a claw from its back. Futaba immediately prepare the big claws in her back.

“Luis Senpai get here already, Irumi-kun was pinned to the wall!”

After talking, she gets on her fighting stance.

“I need to get a weapon as soon as possible.” Futaba said in his mind.
