"That is the rule, then now the tournament of growth !! Start !!"
Eo's voice echoes throughout the water stadium, which is a sign of the start of the final tournament to determine who the winners of the Workshop Battle. On the west side of the northern area of the water stadium, now visible Rea who was standing on one of the cliff peaks, watching the volcano from a distance.
Behind her was Franz who was inside his main Lighthouse Unit to analyze the enemy's strength.
"Viole and Novick have made the move, It is the right time to give a signal to Mr. Aguero."
Hearing Franz's voice, Rea who was more subdued than usual brought up his Reel Inventory and pulled Chosinseong gracefully.
"Send the signal, we will start the movement now."
"Okay."
Then, Rea immediately jumped off a high cliff down like a feather. She fell with the right momentum and landed perfectly before running towards the volcano.
As ahe ran very fast, Rea returned to thinking about her conversation with Novick last night.
*
After the party ended, in accordance with what Kira told, Rea went to the inn where Viole was located with the aim to invite him into her team in the final tournament. After getting information from Franz, Rea immediately went to Viole's room to sneak up to avoid suspicion from the other FUG members.
But the results were in vain, Viole was nowhere and his room was empty. And that's when Rea met Novick.
"Looks like you managed to infiltrate this place well, Arie Rea."
At this time, Rea who was standing in Viole's room looked back calmly and looked at the owner of the voice, which is a big man with black hair, Novick.
Seeing Novick, Rea became alert and prepared if he suddenly attacked her. Her hands get ready to pull Chosinseong from Reel Inventory anytime. Actually Rea had already received data of Team FUG members from Franz, andKira said that there might be a number of people on the FUG team who personally sided with Viole.
And one of the suspects is a Khun Aguero Agnes former teammates according to data from Lighthouse, Novick. But that was only a guess, therefore, Rea remained cautious and asked Novick.
"FUG or Viole, which side are you on?"
While Novick who heard the question raised his eyebrows with a little surprise, he then recalled Viole's words to him the last few days.
'Is this also one of Viole's old colleagues? Or just someone who has a grudge against him? But how did she find out about Viole's problem with FUG. '
"I don't know what you mean, but Jue Viole Grace is FUG's Slayer Candidate, and you have infiltrated his room without permission like a thief, you must have thought of the consequences, right?"
Novick was pretending to be stupid, and because his motives could be clearly seen by Rea, she said.
"Stop your bad acting and just listen to my words, I'm currently in a very bad mood, therefore I will get to the point ..."
Novick gasped a little when he heard Rea's words. Then, with a serious expression, Rea looked into Novick's eyes.
"... I want Jue Viole Grace and you to betray the Team FUG and join my team in the final tournament tomorrow"
" Hah? "
*
Recalling the conversation with Novick last night made Rea anxious.
"Tsk, is that big guy really delivering my orders to Bam or not, GAH !!! This makes me frustrated."
Without stopping her steps, Rea continued running while thinking in her mind.
'Bam, please don't do anything stupid and let us save you. '
***
Inside the volcano where the first Fragment of Enryu's Thorn was at the moment, could be seen a teenager with dark brown ponytail standing up while looking at a large object in front of him.
The teenager is Jue Viole Grace.
It was as tall as having a very large size and could even match the size of a building. That thing is none other than a fragment of Enryu's Thorn which is owned by the Workshop at this time.
'So this is the real Thorn? 'Viole thought.
Suddenly a voice came from the side and caught Viole's attention. The owner of the voice was a boy with pale skin and blond hair, he was seen wearing a red hat and his eyes were covered by bandages.
"Amazing, right? That's the real Thorn that FUG wants so much. They call that 'The Thorn to Kill the King.'"
***
At the same time inside the Archimedes aircraft carrier, now it could be seen that a fully armed officer was walking in a dim hallway.
His footsteps could be heard clearly and broke the silent atmosphere in the hall filled with the sensor and security system.
Actually the officer was not a genuine Archimedes security officer, but Kira who was disguising himself using Fatamorgana. He is currently heading to the place where Po Bidau Gustang is, according to the data Mai gave him.
* tap * * tap *
'I should only need to go straight ahead to get to that person's place, but this is just my feeling, or the hallway gets darker the more I go inside. '
Kira continued walking at a steady pace, as if he was a real security officer. But as Kira thought before, the farther he went into the hallway, the less sunlight came in from the outside and that caused Kira a bad feeling.
* wuttt *
Kira suddenly felt someone's presence and immediately stopped in his tracks, and as he winked, the scenery around him had changed.
At this time the hallway where Kira was actually had been engulfed by endless darkness, and Kira was trapped inside. However, Kira does not panic and can calmly analyze the current situation.
'Why didn't I realize it, was my senses dulling? No, I'm not trying to defend myself, but this disguise is already at another level, anyone who tries to trap me right now can blend in with the environment perfectly. '
And at the same time, Kira's disguise slowly faded and began to display his original figure. But that was not on Kira's wishes, but rather a natural and sure thing to happen.
Fatamorgana is a technique that manipulates light around the user so that it can cause artificial optical illusions to others. It is a terrifying technique if used properly, but has a fatal and absolute weakness.
This technique cannot work without light, it is very different from Kira's light shinsu technique which can be used in a place that doesn't even have the slightest light in it.
That can happen because Fatamorgana is a technique that requires light to be activated, in contrast to his Light Shinsu which is the result of the change from Shinsu in the air into the light itself.
One manipulates the existing light, while the other creates light. It is true that Kira can use his Shinsu light as a light to activate Fatamorgana, but if he does that, then it is the same as unmasking it.
It also happened on the 2nd floor when he faced Lo Po Bia Ren and disguised himself Anaak. At that time if it wasn't for the light from Ren's Lighthouse, Kira's disguise might be exposed.
After his disguise disappeared, Kira's figure could be seen at this time, his blue eyes glowing brighter in the dark. Kira then looked around and said.
"Looks like you have been watching over me since I set foot in this hall, can I ask how you look through my disguises?" Kira asked.
Then, a woman's voice can be heard from nowhere.
"I can't see through your disguises, it's just that security guards aren't allowed to be in this place."
" Eh? "
Hearing that, Kira facepalmed and thought while feeling embarrassed.
'Gosh, I feel like a fool. '
"Since I was not given an order to kill, I advise you to leave this place immediately for your safety."
"My safety, huh." Kira murmured, his eyes continued to move to find her presence, with Mystical Dragon's eyes, Kira's vision became strengthened to the level where he could see the thinest Shinsu flow in the air.
"So you are Po Bidau Gustang's bodyguard."
No answer came from that woman.
"I take that silence as yes ... so can you let me go in and meet that person? There are a few things I want to talk to him directly."
But the woman did not respond to Kira's question.
"Didn't you hear what I said before? Get out of this place, right now!" The woman's voice was as cold as ice, and there was an implied killing intent behind it.
Feeling the killing intent emitted by the woman, Kira could conclude that the woman who was talking to him at this time was a trained killer and also not a reckless person.
"I will not leave before you let me meet Gustang."
* wuut *
But shortly after Kira said that, he felt the coldness of the blade on his neck that even made him widen the eyes because of the absurd speed shown by that woman.
"Stubborn, I'll kill you here."
The woman stood right behind Kira and put her dagger around Kira's neck. Her cold voice could be heard clearly, as if the death bell for Kira himself.
Her figure blurred and could not be seen clearly, as if she was enveloped in darkness itself. Only a pair of her golden eyes could be seen through the darkness.
However, even though at this time he was being cornered Kira only said calmly.
" Are you sure? "
Before the woman realized it, Kira had twisted his body 180 ° and kicked right into the woman's stomach, but when Kira swings his feet about her body, she disappears into darkness as if she had never existed from the start.
'Hm? Her figure disappeared ... 'Kira widened his eyes in surprise at the sight in front of him.
"Of course." A cold voice from the woman reappeared behind Kira, which made him reflexively swing a backward kick and try to hit the woman, but her figure disappeared again.
'She disappeared again ... I'm sure it's the real body but I feel as if I'm fighting against her clone. '
Kira then glanced towards the wall of the hall that was clad in darkness and thought.
'Then there is no other choice. '
"That's useless, this is a Endless Darkness domain-, Oi at least listen to me !!!"
The woman became annoyed when she saw Kira who looked unconcerned and instead walked to the wall beside him. Kira then spread hks arm and touched the wall.
The woman then thought with confusion.
' Huh, What does he want to-"
* buzz *
But, before she can finish her words, she suddenly felt her whole world vibrate.
*fwuosh*
'Eh? What happened? '
Then, the darkness that enveloped the entire hall slowly disappeared and crumbled. It was Kira's doing, he used his Chaos Energy to destroy the Dark Domain created by that woman.
After the darkness in the hallway disappeared, the woman's figure could be seen clearly at this time, her entire body was covered by a black cloth and only part of her eyes could be seen.
'He eliminated my dark domain which can even trap a High-ranker, who is this person? '
Kira who saw it did not give the slightest pause to the woman to go back into hiding, a small sword of light appeared in his hand and with lightning speed, Kira drove towards the woman and swung his sword.
* clang *
But the woman can parry it with a dagger in her hand. Their two eyes met even for just a moment, before the woman swung another dagger using her other hand towards Kira.
* swing *
Kira then immediately retreated back to avoid the woman's attack. But the woman did not want to miss the chance to kill Kira just like that, especially after seeing his strength that could even destroy her Dark domain.
She then murmured in a low voice.
"Yami no Hiketsu, Sandoshitsu."
The woman then used the air itself as a foothold, and slid towards Kira with her daggers covered in darkness.
"En!"
* zyuuut *
* clang *
The woman's speed was extraordinary and her attack was aimed right at the vital point of Kira. However, Kira can fend off the lethal attack with ease by using his immense reflexes and vision.
'A lethal assassin, that's all I can say, if I hadn't used Chaos Energy before to destroy his darkness, then she would have hurt me. '
Kira thought while continuing to fend off attacks from the woman.
* bump *
But the strength of Kira's body that has been enhanced by the Mystical Dragon gene is very scary. Kira spun around, and sent a kick back to the woman.
* fwuosh *
But the woman was able to avoid him, and Kira relentlessly attacked the woman using his palm.
' Guanyin Bodhisattva : One Clap '
* pack * * fwuosh *
The woman slammed backwards by Kira's attack, and clicked behind the shawl that covered her mouth.
'Tsk, my attack can't hit him at all. '
* tap *
The confrontation between the two of them then stopped when they did not make further movements. The woman was seen standing in front of the door that Mai meant in her message, the door of the room which was the place where Gustang was.
Kira was still standing in his place while looking at her using his blue eyes, he then said with a stoic face.
"I did not think there was an assassin like you in the Po Bidau family, I think they only contain people who like to do research and such, it seems that the stereotype is a little wrong huh. ' Kira praised her ability sincerely.
However, the woman seemed unhappy despite receiving praise from Kira. Seeing Kira who didn't even get hurt one bit after receiving her attack was an insult to an assassin like her, who used to finish her work quickly and precisely. If only the woman knew that Kira was just an E-rank regular who had just joined the Workshop Batlle, she might be very surprised.
But she has been wary of Kira since he destroyed her dark domain.
"So miss, I think you have also noticed, continuing this fight will only be your loss."
The woman pulled out her hand when she heard Kira's voice, she was silent because of his words and made the atmosphere quiet before the male voice came from her pocket.
{Stop Fae, let him in}
Hearing that voice, both Kira and the woman called Fae were surprised for different reasons. But Fae did not speak again and obediently obeyed the man's words. Fae then disappears from her place and goes back into hiding, opening the way for Kira. Seeing that, Kira immediately stepped forward.
He walked into the room and opened a large luxurious door, the door was quite loud and creaking when Kira opened it. After the door opened, Kira immediately entered the room and he was greeted with an amazing view.
It was a large room and was surrounded by transparent glass which allowed Kira to see the view outside very clearly. In the middle of the room there is a small circle stage on top of which there is a man who is sitting on a luxurious chair and backs to Kira.
* tap *
Kira then stopped walking and opened his mouth.
"So you are Po Bidau Gustang, I have long wanted to meet you." There was a hope behind Kira's words, finally the person who could help him to return to his world was right in front of him at this time.
However, Gustang who heard that said with calm voice.
" You brat don't know manners. "
Then the stage below rotates 180 ° and finally the appearance of Gustang can be seen more clearly, he then said to Kira with an calm expression and cold voice.
"It is such a coincidence, I've also wanted to meet with the troublemaker boy who made a mess on the floor under my control ... I welcome you, Kira."
