Bab 12: Special Grade
My foot was plastered into the face of the Curse while I looked towards the three of my idiot students. Looking at their shock expression I step of the face of the cursed and walked towards Oe.
[Masaki and Nishimoto both watched at the man approached Oe, Nishimoto tried getting up feeling his limbs ache from the previous attack. Masaki just stared at the man in awe of his powers, but both had the same thought.
'Who is this guy]
"Are you hurt."
Looking at the trembling Oe, bending down to take a look at her making sure she wasn't hurt. Knowing Oe, she had most likely been dragged her by those two idiots. Extending my hand towards her I tried to soften my voice and shove aside my annoyance for once.
"I won't hurt you."
Looking up at me with a fearful expression she hesitantly grabbed my hand. Lifting her up I carried her to the other two and laid her beside them.
[As the man approached Nishimoto was gained an increased confusion. Why was he helping them, while trying to figure out who the man was. The man dropped off Oe near him making sure to sit her down softly. After the man finished, he instantly glared at Nishimoto and Masaki causing both of them to shake a bit. But while looking at the man Nishimoto noted a familiar feature of the man, he's eyes were yellow kind of like an animal.]
Letting out an annoyed sigh I looked at both of my impulsive students before bending down to their level.
"Both of you aren't hurt are you."
Both started shaking their heads but looking at Nishimoto I saw his still trembling hands.
"You definitely are."
Grabbing his arms and feeling it, I could tell that his right arm was fracture a bit.
'The adrenaline must've been numbing the pain. Still, it's impressive they aren't hurt that much. They must've fought well, or the curse must've not been trying to kill them. It must have other motives if the second options the case.'
Using reverse cursed energy, I steadily healed his arm. While healing all three students looked at me confused at what I was doing. After letting go I let go of his arm still crouched down looking at the three.
"Is it better."
"Y-Yea."
Nishimoto responded slowly.
[While Kota healed checked the health of his students. The curse slowly rose up. Masaki, who was still on high alert, looked over Kota's body seeing the curse. Kota still focused on his students this time looked at Masaki before asking him the same question he asked Nishimoto.]
"Are you hurt."
I looked over at Masaki before noticing him pointing behind me.
[Masaki quickly tried to Kota to the danger of the creature behind them.]
"BEHIND YOU."
Yelling out to the man about the monster I tried to warn him. But to my surprise his expression just grew annoyed until asking the same question.
"Are you hurt."
This time his words were more demanding. I looked at him than at the monster before shaking my head no.
"I'M FINE I SWEAR."
My words became more panic as the monster slowly approached us.
[All three of the students grew concerned as Nishimoto and Oe finally saw the monster approaching after Masaki had yelled out. Nishimoto looked at the man confused as he was focused on Masaki and grew anxious. Joining in with Masaki warning the man. Oe sitting beside them was still too scared trembling as the monster came closer. Masaki face was filled with fear completely focusing on the Monster.]
'I got to get out of here while I still can.'
My knees were still a bit weak from the previous encounter, but I slowly tried to get up and escape before being pushed down by the man in front of me.
As he got up and turned around, he watched at as the monster approached before turning his head a little.
"You two, how about you guys do something productive and stay out of the way."
[The monster started speeding up approaching while Kota just stood still staring at the curse spirit. When the cursed spirit got in close range all the students felt their hearts stop. Kota on the other hand had a calm expression before easily dodging the attacks thrown by the curse spirit.]
"How predictable."
Dodging a punch, I grabbed the curse's arm before throwing him away. As he flew through the air and after landing, he slowly rose up.
"Creepy."
Staring at is hideous appearance I saw the many heads coming out of its body and grew annoyed.
"You're a strong curse, you mind answering some question of mine?"
Standing and looking at the curse while it stood also looking back, I saw a smile rise onto its face.
"What's your name?"
I grew even more annoyed than before.
"Are you stupid?"
The curse's smile still was on his face while he looked down and grabbed a face on his body, caressing it softly. Dry heaving at the sight, I felt absolutely disgusted at this creature.
"Can I tell you my name."
"I won't remember it."
Getting tired of its antics I started walking towards the curse spirit prepared to exorcise it. Continuing to smile, began laughing before pulling out the faces of his body.
"My name is Iha Ichirou, Fukuda Mika, Taira Hachiro, Hagiwara Nobuyuki, Hirabayashi Hitomi."
[As the monster keep naming names. Oe, Masaki, and Nishimoto watched as the faces in the monster's body slowly started falling offing up individual monsters. using her brain Oe covered her mouth with her hands knowing exactly what these monsters where. Nishimoto face darkened looking at the sight.
'Those names, those are real people aren't they.'
Thinking back to When the monster asked their name earlier. They all grew sick to their stomachs before quickly feeling a since of dread while the monsters surrounded the man. Kota's didn't feel anything from the sight of the extra monsters besides one emotion.
Kota was filled with a growing annoyance.]
Looking at the smiling curses with its summons, my mood was instantly ruined even more.
"So, you're the one who's been spreading the curses."
The curses surrounded me before beginning to laugh.
"Well, I guess those brats did one thing right. They found you."
All of the curses ran towards me in an attempt to overwhelm me. Watching them approach I saw the main curse was heading towards the kids.
'Putting me into a sticky situation seems he isn't as stupid as I thought.'
[Kota who wasn't used to protecting people when fighting instantly felt like he was backed into a corner. Looking at his students while they laid down fearful of the monster who was stalking towards them. Masaki tried to get up and run but felt like his legs were jelly. Gripping his hand in defeat he felt a few drops of bleed come out from his grip.]
Looking at the monster caused my heart to quicken and my body to shake.
'I'm going to die like this. I can't even get up and run away. Maybe I deserve to die here a coward.'
[Feeling his pride be ripped to shreds by his own actions, Masaki who only had that had given up.]
Getting to my feet I quickly scrambled for a scared Oe and silent Masaki.
'I have to move.'
[Only one of them were able to get up. Nishimoto quickly got up and grabbed the unmoving Oe throwing her over his shoulder. He grabbed Masaki before trying to escape. Slightly struggling to carry both he tried to run away while the monster slowly approach. Taking pleasure in the despair he was causing.]
"Come back."
The monster voice was hoarse and scratchy, causing a struggling me to shiver.
"Fuck."
I heard the voice of Masaki who I could tell was mad at the situation.
Carrying the two of classmates, I couldn't look back only feeling his voice come closer and closer.
'Come on, just a few more steps.'
The weight of both Oe and Masaki on my back had slowed the escape before I felt a Stange feeling in my chest. I felt my chest become heavy; my heart started to beat like a drum. I was getting tired and fast, trying to quicken my pace my right foot fell down awkwardly causing me to slip slightly.
Falling to the ground and dropping them I tried to get up and again feeling the monster still coming. Trying to grab both of them again I felt his voice again a reminder of our impending feeling of doom.
"Come on, tell me your names. I'll tell you mines."
Feeling him come closer I closed my eyes fearful of what was going to happen.
Then all of a sudden nothing happened. Turning around and facing where the monster was supposed to be I saw the man from earlier lifting him up with one hand. Holding him by his mouth while the monster tried to claw his way free.
"Why don't we resume our fight."
[Oe and Masaki turned to look at him surprised. Masaki looked behind the man spotting loose body parts evaporating into the air. Nishimoto only focused on the man a smile growing on his own face. Noting the mans unharmed state they could only guess one thing. He had defeated the countless monster in under a minute. The curse looked at Kota feeling a sense of fear looking down at the smiling man as he gripped him. Kota wasn't an ordinary cursed user, after being backed into a corner and put into a situation he had never encountered. Doing what he thought was the right thing he simply got a little serious. After all he was technically a special grade, and when you put a wolve into a corner it'll simple show it's fangs.]
Holding the cursed spirit, I looked up at it smiling. Feeling the curse trying to speak probably to use its technique I tightened my grip not letting a word come out.
"You asked for my name remember.
The monsters face spoke millions of words. His fear and knowledge of his coming death was apparent as he still tried to struggle and get out of my grip. I definitely wasn't letting that happen.
"Just call me the Hound."
Throwing my other hand back I coated it with cursed spirit before punching the spirit in the stomach forming a hole.
"Have fun in hell."
The monster slowly evaporated being exorcised. I turned my head at the wide mouth kids.
"Go home, and this time don't fuck it up."
I slowly made my way out of the warehouse. Walking into the night, I had to confirm if the other curses had disappeared.
