Last Life
The Leader in the Shadow
"........"
Sekai has not answered my words, when I look closely at his current condition it is not possible for Sekai to fight again.
And it looks like he needs help for a while ahead until he gets better again, half of it.
As I looked around and looked at the dangerous man, I helped Sekai clean his blood-soaked face.
I have decided, I took the initiative to protect Sekai from all attacks, especially from dangerous people earlier.
I guess I'll fight him without coming close to him directly to minimize the risk of getting an aura effect on him that is deadly.
But if forced to be close to him I prefer not to linger near him.
The man then moved to attack me, when I was right in front of Sekai about to put the wound plaster. Fortunately I swiftly avoided it while counterattacking from the water I still controlled.
It was unexpected that Sekai helped myself and escorted the person to a place that was not crowded more precisely in the castle garden.
At the moment, despite Sekai's condition of being injured he still forced himself to help me.
Right now I am made alert at every second, the reason is because the movement of the person is so fast in darting around when faced again with Sekai.
Even in my view it almost matches the people I know who have the ability and skill of fast movement.
Dash...
Bugh!
Bugh!
Dash... × 26
The kick then a sharp blow hit the person's body and face in the near future.
Then Sekai's consecutive punch aimed at his opponent without pause so that it looks like his movement is like a punch from many hands.
Grep..
Bugh!
Crackdown!
In the next attack, Sekai struck once again the man, causing him to be dragged down on the ground, creating a deep scar, and finally freeze himself.
While I was simultaneously looking at the fight they both had to be really serious when fighting the people who were attacking me.
Although I make sure they have ordinary abilities, but it has a fatal impact if I let my guard down.
Splash...
Splash...
In a few minutes I managed to defeat three people in turn.
When defeating them I thought of the leader of this city who until now has not shown his identity. There must be a reason why he has not appeared.
My original guess was that he would appear at the end when the people on my side were already exhausted after facing his subordinates.
"Sekai...here!" I said while telling Sekai to come closer to me.
I whispered about my guess to him.
Sekai understood, he then advised me to be careful when facing the people outside the castle.
"You want to enter the castle, not that it's too dangerous to be alone. I'm coming, right!?"
"No. You stay here Anita, soon the fight here will be won by our side. It turned out that Luu's comrades were extremely reliable, even though some of them had been killed before."
Which, according to my assumption, there is something hidden there, and it is not known to me or Sekai.
Given Luu had not been seen again until this moment. It was likely that Luu was dealing with her brother, it was the worst possibility.
If Luu were to kill him then the mission this time of reason failed miserably, which we should have brought the leader of this city in a still-living state. But the opposite is true.
Because Yanwu's plan was that if the city's leader could not be negotiated, another option was to defeat him. Then take him alive to Sekai's flying castle.
For the time being it seems like the number two way to be taken, let alone I have a firm conclusion regarding the decision of the leader of this city.
"Wouldn't be invited to negotiate, because his nature is so haughty, that information I got from Luu's story."
One of the god-human races who used his abilities was arbitrary towards those weaker than him.
Even manipulating those with extraordinary abilities and high levels to submit to him, with an equal right to him as the leader of the city.
A big city for an active city with an average population are people who are trapped due to good rumors about this city.
"It's not Anita, I'm just worried about your safety. You must have understood that the human god race was cruel and ruthless!"
"You might be taken hostage if I let my guard down, and I really don't want it at all" Sekai warned me of the risks that could happen to me if I followed him.
Blarrs...
Dash...
"They know we're here, you better get back to where we were. There Luu's comrade might have already finished the fight against the castle people outside!" sekai's word was full of emphasis this time.
I didn't need to go with him.
"Gram!!"
"Ugh!!"
He then left while defeating the person who was about to approach me and block him.
Back walking towards the area before I had absolutely no mood to fight them.
I even let Luu's colleagues take care of it.
Now they were only seven people left of the previous twelve.
"You're so pretty, maybe Luu's boyfriend. But I can't believe she has a boyfriend as beautiful as you!" said one of them was a blonde.
Currently the people from the enemy side more precisely who were in the area not far from the castle were defeated by them.
"...I'm not Luu's girlfriend." I said as I flicked my hands at those who were now looking at me, really, really awkward.
"Not yes, when I imagined you would get married one day," she said something she shouldn't have said.
"Hahaha, she is indeed not Luu's girlfriend. I've read his expression!" timpal is a blue-eyed man in summer clothes.
Unlike the three others who looked sad, it was possible to mourn the death of his colleague who was killed.
"Hey. It was likely that another opponent would be waiting there!" take the blue-eyed man to his other partner. Honestly, I totally agree.
Only a few of them agreed, including myself.
Heading towards the magnificent castle decorated by beautiful flowers.
Unfortunately the leader of the castle did not reflect the beauty of the flowers.
Dharr!!!
The sound of the explosion accompanied by a strong wave shocked me.
