Garyu moved his hand in the empty air as if trying to feel something, while Inuki lowered his body while continuing to put up his nose. There was a slight expression of confusion on the Dog's face.
“I'm very sure they're still around here, the smell isn't where – is but....why? Strange, is there something wrong with my nose huh?”
“Your kiss is good – is fine, there is only one problem here. Transparent barrier”
“If only can not be seen I still believe, but touched can not”
“Leave one choice then, forcibly”
“Oi oi oi, do you know the exact location?” Inuki raised next to the eyebrows.
“What do I care?”
The Dragon Shio let out heat from his nose, growing – plants and water began to dry up. Slowly floating into the sky with his right hand raised, the panicked Inuki tried to find shelter.
“Woa woa woa patiently patient! Give me time seben—“
“Twin Head Temple Special Techniques; Ryu Shuha!”
THE DUAR! WUSH OFF! KRAT!!!
In an instant, the location was scorched in flames. Inuki came out of his makeshift hole while cursing, for a moment he had thought it would be a roast dog if it was too late to act.
Garyu landed quietly not minding the nagging – nagging his colleague, feeling annoyed at that attitude, Inuki decided to sit cross-legged and ogah helped the search.
“Barbarian basis, see the consequences of your actions on this beautiful nature”
“Inuki stop blabbering, fast kari”
“Iya – Yes why? Got anything?”
“Binggo” Garyu tore through the pungent smelling empty air then pointed right at his findings earlier.
------><------
“Quick Sir! Get as far away from here as possible! Don't look around anymore! You will reach Klouvi City if you leave the slopes of the west of”
“But...how with—“.
“Calm down, we're good – is fine. Now quickly go!”
Although it feels heavy leaving the village, Arya grabbed Kizuna's hand and then ran as fast as she could through the forest. Their figure is getting away until finally not seen again by the residents.
Twenty of them looked at each other, each step steadily upon the ground moving towards the entrance of Kakureta Mura. A gripping aura enveloped the entire tiny region.
“We've done our best” Hazu whispered softly.
“Huum, now just leave the rest to fate” said Kimba with a smile.
The ground before them crumbled instantly once two figures landed there, the sharp gaze of this – man man could make an opponent as strong as any trepidation. Although still young, the ability of each – people is above all the residents of the village.
“Ara? Didn't think – is true there are people living in this location”
“Greetings to the seniors, we came here to look for – male and female missing. Did any of you see it?”
“Ohoho two handsome young boys, sorry to disappoint you guys, but in Kakureta Mura there are only retirees like us this”
The silence lasted quite a long time after the word – said earlier, five minutes interval Garyu immediately gave the order.
“Inuki can you?”
“Not far, just relax”
“Kajar”
“Give me a guk” Inuki bark before darting.
“Stop in—“
“Crazy Hound Temple Style; Inu Sentsu!”
WUSH OFF!
When it was about to catch up, Garyu was ready to block their path. He slightly yawned and seemed lazy dealing with the person – the person. A loud crackling of bones rang out as the strongest Shio-titled man stretched his body.
“Twenty ex-Fighter Generals from a hundred years ago lived together in the depths of a mysterious abyss, isn't this information really incredible?”
“And people – that person will stop you” Xiong put up horse – horse.
“Please stop, you are great war heroes who are very meritorious to the Werebeast race. No more counting how many lives you have taken. Let's finish well – well”
“That's the reason we haven't had a good night's sleep in the last hundred years” Hazu said as she gritted her teeth.
“Then why are you helping fugitives?”
“A penance” Kimba gives off a dazzling white aura from both palms.
“Hah...mau how else? Twenty-one against one, huh? Fight” murmured Garyu relaxed.
JDAR!
------><------
Arya and Kizuna have not stopped running since leaving Kakureta Mura. After whatever he was, the footsteps kept rhythmic. The aura earlier opened his memory of the strength of the Seven Great Sins of the Demon race.
Arya's hand was drenched in sweat, but tried her hardest not to let go of Kizuna's hand. While the girl had only been silent a thousand languages from now on, hope finally appeared when a bridge began to be seen from a distance.
“Kizuna is a little more!”
Just as the two crossed the middle of the bridge, Kizuna broke free and cut the rope so that the bridge was split in two. The gentle push of her fox tail managed to make Arya safe to reach the opposite side even though she had to hang on the former bridge.
“What are you—“
“Enough to get here, you must also realize that we're being followed right?”
“T..ta..but why?! You said you didn't believe war would be the way out!”
“I'VE HEARD ABOUT YOUR IDENTITY....!
Kizuna's body trembled violently, she turned around trying her best not to look at each other with Arya.
Anyway I have to keep protecting people – people who are precious to me, go! Consider this in return for accompanying and feeding me. Don't ever show up in front of me again, see you. Arya Frost”
Arya cursed inwardly as the figure of Kizuna slowly disappeared back towards the hidden village. He climbed the broken bridge until he managed to tread the land, while collecting Agnet. Arya breathes in – deep before yelling.
“KIZUNA....!!!
The fox girl heard the call and stopped, tears streaming down her face.
I WILL DEFINITELY PICK YOU UP!!! WHEN THE TIME COMES, PLEASE MAKE YOUR CHOICE IN FAVOR OF WHO....!!! BE YOURSELF THE STONE HEAD BASE....!!!”
‘Who do you call a stupid headstone! That's why we have to separate, I don't know what I really am if I stay with you. Guy sucks! Now I understand a little reason mom hates Man - men’
On the way back, Kizuna meets Inuki. After making sure the condition is good – is fine. As she asked about Arya's whereabouts, Kizuna explained that the Ice Elementalist managed to escape using a special trick so she eventually lost track.
“Ahh so, the important thing is that you survived. Thankfully” Inuki barked happily and then took Kizuna to meet Garyu. I don't want to talk more about Arya.
Upon their arrival outside Kakkureta Mura, a fishy smell filled the air. Kizuna was unable to resist the urge to run, accompanied by gasping breath – puffed the fox girl into the village then ended up seeing a brutal scene.
Garyu sat on top of the pile of corpses of the residents, his body covered in thick blood. Kakkureta Mura's condition is no longer the same. Everything has been charred in the flames, the Dragon Shio walked up to Kizuna while throwing – throw Kimba's head using one hand.
“It's nice to see you again”.
“Garyu..kau...why...” Kizuna's eyes widened, she clenched her hands so tightly that she began to drip blood.
“I also actually do not want to kill talented Werebeast like them, because it can certainly be useful for us. But all this is purely their decision so...mau how else?”
Unable to silence, Kizuna ran to take care of the bodies of – bodies of his rescuers, Garyu raised one eyebrow in wonder. Inuki arrived beside her a moment later.
“You realized it?”
“Iya, there is something strange with Kizuna” whispered Inuki confirming.
“True, keep an eye on him well – well on the way home”
