But just as I turned one of the corners that I had to take to return to the hotel, I found myself stopped as a small golden furball came to crash onto my chest, its claws surprisingly not drawing blood as those latched onto my shirt.
I blinked at the frantic shaking of the little thing now desperately holding onto me and then-
"N-Niichan, help!"
It was Kunou's voice and as my eyes widened in recognition, but my full attention was swiftly moved away as I also noticed the twenty or something robed figures rushing towards me, some magical circles forming right in front of them.
Fuck, magicians!
I didn't hesitate, I just couldn't at this point, and I quickly turned around from the direction I was walking to, rushing towards one of the nearby alleys while managing to reach the sharp corner before any of the magical missiles reached for me.
Without stopping even for a single moment to stare back at my new pursuers, I started to laid down an 'unhealthy' amount of traps behind me to create some advantages against these bastards.
The moment I left the alley to race through the mostly empty street, I felt the first explosion of many going off with some unpleasant gory noises following after, and then several others started to detonate of the same intensity and brutality.
The Light Mines were doing their bombastic job in keeping the magicians busier and I continued to make some distance from them by pumping energy in my legs to augment my current pacing.
Still, I could feel footsteps getting closer to my current pacing and, without thinking much about it, I turned my attention at the various closed stands on the side as to glance at any objects that could be turned in projectiles, producing numerous seals with the Silver Lining combination to latch onto those and throw them behind me.
The sound of loud crashing and people shrieking in pain dignified the fact that I had taken some of the bastards down but it wasn't just over yet.
The brief relief from those two quick victories was suddenly crushed by the time I had reached the middle of a large intersection in the quarter and...
Front, left and right were obstructed by ten robed figures each side, I noticed some people in the roof ready to strike too and some footsteps still approaching from behind.
We were encircled and I grimaced the situation as it was.
"Your potential is impressive, brother of magic." A feminine voice stated by the front of the main force of magicians. "Let the girl go and we will accept you in our glorious group of-"
"Pass."
The cloaked woman stopped, a brief pause before sighing at my word of defiance.
"Think of the heights you could achieve-"
"Not interested," I rebuked again, sighing in annoyance as I felt the need to scratch my head but couldn't because I had my hands still busy with the bags. Plus I had to keep attentive for any sudden move from the approaching thugs.
Kunou shifted a little closer to my chest, trying to get the furthest away from the band of morons encircling around us and my mind was frantically lost in the search for any kind of distraction I could use to deal with these idiots.
"It's your death wish then..."
I saw several circles forming all over around me, but as the woman preached some recruitment pep talk I had finally noticed the best escape for this situation and I felt the need to grin at the little trick I was going to pull on them.
I wonder if common sense is something that everyone in the Khaos Brigate lacks.
"Or your failure!"
A small sphere of light appeared up above my head and a sudden flash of white engulfed the area.
Soon, several spells were launched right where I was last seen in that flashy bomb, some of those being explosive ones as to take revenge for those that had fallen under my merciless trapping skills, and those who sent off stunners were trying their best to avoid harming the Yokai attached to my shirt.
Sadly, all of those reached the ground, either exploding in loud noises or dispelling at the lack of an acceptable target and, by the very moment the blinding light of my spell gave away to reveal the aftermath of their bombardment… they found nothing.
Dust was still hovering around, but there was nothing that remained of 'me' or of the little furball that had sticked close and away from the fiends.
Surprise was replaced by fear at the possibility of having killed the offspring of Yasaka and having masterfully failed their main mission, ushering the large group of magicians to scatter around to try and look around area…
Missing completely the now-close manhole that led up to the sewers area of this large street section as its cover was now coated by shadow spell camouflaged as simple, muddy dirt.
Sitting on the cemented ground by the end of the ladder, I had long dropped the bags on the floor as my arms were now wrapped around the little kit on my chest, to comfort Kunou as she continued to tremble in my hold.
That had been way too close of a call to not be at least a bit scared from it, and I thanked Azazel for having gotten me to appreciate a little the sublime art of Shadowcraft.
I was still far from getting all of the other spells down, but the 'Shadow Camouflage' proved to be a successful first test in practical grounds.
And it wasn't just the only spell I was happy to have grown accustomed to use as the Flash Bomb had been a bet that not even I had been sure of its effectiveness but it had worked.
"I'm here now, Ku-chan," I continued to comfort her, her whining in her foxy form continuing for a little while, then she slowly melted in my arms and started to change back in her more-humane form. "There's no need to worry."
