Old Division
Chapter 2 - 3: Destination

Zaki is seen exiting the main door and returning to Linda, Casta, Ayla and Yuichi.

"How is he doing?" ask Zaki to them.

"Hmm. as you can see, things are getting hotter," Yuichi replied in an annoyed tone and looked towards Zaki with a visibly annoyed facial expression.

"Why do you look at me with such a facial expression?" zaki asked while giving an annoyed facial expression to Yuichi as well.

"That's because you ran yourself inside to find safety right?" yuichi retorts to slander Zaki.

"Huh?.. I went inside to find Mr. Jancoct so he could help Major Misca defeat that man" Zaki explained.

"Hmm... Have you met the old man?" yuichi replied in a flat tone.

"Yes, he said he'll be here soon."

"Hmm.. good then," Yuichi replied in a flat tone and held his chin and nodded his head.

Zaki only looked towards Yuichi with a flat expression as if he did not understand the thought path of the person who had just argued with him.

Then Zaki again looked towards the road where there were two people who were preparing to continue their fight.

"Hmm... Why did Major Misca take off her clothes?" ask Zaki wonder.

Ayla and Yuichi answer simultaneously with different intentions, but Ayla does not have time to finish her words because Yuichi's voice is bigger.

"Ah.. that's because Major Misca...."

"Hmm.it's because he wants to show off his big melon," Yuichi replied as he let out an innocent-like expression.

Instantly those who heard it immediately pointed their eyes from the direction of the battle towards Yuichi who still put on a face that looked stupid.

"Well?.What do you mean?" asked Casta in an annoyed tone.

Yuichi turned his gaze from Major Misca to Casta's chest.

"Hmm. a woman with a small melon like you won't understand," Yuichi replied with a flat, stupid expression.

"Huh?.. perverted base," replied the embarrassed Casta and covered his chest with his right hand and his left hand striking Yuichi's nose with his index and middle fingers.

"Arrggggkkk.." in a tone like pain Yuichi cried out for mercy.

Because they were too noisy with a big noise, Misca and the stranger then joined in to hear the chattering of those who were behind a large concrete pole.

"Hmph.so so that's your strategy," the stranger laughed in a mocking tone at Misca.

"Well?.what strategy?" misca replied in surprise because the stranger laughed at her.

"You don't have to pretend to be stupid anymore, because I already know what strategy you're going to use I'm going to start being careful now," reply the stranger while pointing towards Misca with confidence.

Those in the back started to go back into silence and whisper.

"What strategy will the Major do?" ask Linda in a surprised tone.

"Nah Casta, Ayla, have you not known Major Misca for a long time, what strategy would he use to defeat the stranger?" ask Zaki seriously to Casta and Ayla.

"I don't know what strategy Major will use, after all we rarely meet, so there's not much I know about Major" Casta told Zaki.

"Hmmm...." Zaki again looked seriously at Misca and the stranger.

Then the stranger spoke again in a tone like a creepy person.

"Since I already know what you're going to do, then now all I have to do is keep my distance from you" the stranger said.

The stranger again clasped his Artifacts and let out a bright yellow light from his eyes.

But there is something different, in the pupils of his eyes not only glowing, but also seen an image on the pupils of his eyes that are shaped like the shadow of an eagle (Harpy Eagle).

The soldiers who had been on standby were ordered by Misca to retreat because the situation already looked very dangerous, because Misca knew that a user of Artifacts could bring up the Artifacts motif that was being used on his pupils, this means that the person is on a different level.

"So you're really serious now?" misca said with a serious tone and gaze.

"Of course, to avoid your cunning strategy, I will finish you off quickly" said the stranger as he looked towards Misca.

"Huh?.. I really do not understand what you mean," said Misca confused.

"You want to use that big melon of yours to poke me, don't you?" the man underestimated Misca.

Zaki, Casta, Linda and the others were shocked to hear that the strategy the strange man was referring to was Major Misca's great Melon.

"Haaah... What's the problem with my melon?" misca was Annoyed.

"Hmph.you do have a big enough melon, but it's not enough to beat me" said the man preparing to begin showing his strength.

The sky turned dark, a strong and cold wind blew to the bone, the man floated amidst the soldiers who were still on standby to shoot him with sharp bullets.

The man raised his left hand up with a gesture as if he was holding something in his hand.

"Wind Ball.." said the man quietly.

Instantly formed a ball from a black wind that size is quite large.

Misca who saw it narrowed her eyes and looked towards the man's eyes.

"Haha..so it's like that." said Misca lirih then grind her teeth while still looking up.

The man then prepared to pass the ball of wind towards Misca.

"Well..now die...."

But just before the man's hand began to flip the ball towards Misca suddenly the man's left arm was penetrated by a shot that resulted in the ball that was in his hand had disappeared.

"Have I come at the right time?" said Mr. Jancoct while carrying a black Sniper Rifle-shaped weapon with a red pattern.

"Papa.." said Misca looking at the direction of the shooting.

Misca then retreated towards the stairs but remained in a prepared position.

"Papa... Can we minimize the damage that will occur here?" misca.

"Well, I'll do it" replied Jancoct.

Seeing that someone was helping Misca, the stranger became upset that he was bothering him to kill Misca.

"Who are you?" said the man was upset.

"I am the guardian of this place who was given the mandate to get rid of all bullies like you" said Mr. Jancoct angrily.

"Then I'll finish you both off."

The man then again made the wind to attack them both, but much bigger than the previous one.

Misca and Jancoct sir who saw it were again preparing for battle mode.

"Misca you go ahead, let me shoot him from here" Jancoct said, aiming at the stranger.

"Okay papa," said Misca as she advanced and tried to approach the man who was on the air.

Mr. Jancoct kept shooting at the man in the air with the gun he was carrying, every time the man dodged the bullet he was shooting at, the bullet will chase the target until it can be lodged in the body of the target.

However, even though the bullet could chase its target wherever it went, the stranger's Artifacts strength far exceeded their estimates, when the bullet would reach the man, the extremely thin and sharp black wind managed to cut through that pointed lead very easily.

Misca who ran under the man then prepared to jump with the power of Artifacts he had.

"High Jump...." Misca jumped up and was right in front of the wind barrier that the man had just made, "Iron Fist...." misca said as she clenched her right hand with all her might and tried to hit the man in the face.

But unfortunately, before Misca could land his blow, the wrist of Misca was torn first by the winds are very sharp like a sword, like a sword, then Misca who felt that she was in danger of pulling back her punch and dropped down while holding her injured hand.

"Cih.." said Misca annoyed.

Those behind who were hiding behind the wall were shocked to see Misca being injured.

"You're okay, Major," Casta said in a panic.

"Oi. oi. why is the difference in strength so far away like this" Yuichi said confusedly as he let out a panicked expression.

"When the Mayor had managed to corner the man before," Linda replied, looking confused.

"Major.." said Ayla slowly while looking at the situation of Major Misca from afar.

"Even the weapons carried by Mr. Jancoct still can not help Major" said Zaki annoyed.

Mr. Jancoct kept trying to shoot the man from a distance using the weapon he was carrying.

"Misca are you okay?" ask Mr. Jancoct.

"Yes, it's just a small wound, papa" Misca replied, covering the wound from her hand.

"Hmph... is it only limited to the ability of people who are in this era?" asked the man while looking at Misca who was injured.

In an ongoing tense situation, Linda was suddenly confused.

"Hey... Where did Zaki go?" ask Linda to Yuichi.

"Did?" reply Casta while looking left right looking for Zaki.

"Hmm. he disappeared again to secure himself," Yuichi replied in an annoyed tone.

Meanwhile, inside the main room, Zaki is looking for something that can be used to help Major Misca and Jancoct who are fighting against strangers outside the building.

"Is there nothing to use here," Zaki asked in annoyance as he looked towards the corners of the room.

"Well, if it's not wrong there are various weapons that can be used," said Zaki running while rushing to the room in question.

Arriving at the door of the room in question, Zaki tried to open the doorknob, but it turned out that the door was locked.

"Heh?.. It seems like I'm in the wrong room," Zaki said with a look of foolishness.

Since the door could not be opened, Zakipun turned his body and prepared to look for a door that could be opened.

"Where can it be so." he turned around again and kicked the door open and with an expression that looked very upset.

"Ah.... is open." she said again in a shocked tone and let out her stupid expression again.

Instantly he saw various types of weapons, ranging from spears, bows, double sticks, sticks, boards, beams, hoes, gear chains, swords to get to firearms.

Zaki searches for what weapon is suitable for him to help Major Misca and the fighting Jancoct sir.

"Heh?.. Why are there so many plates here?... hmm... isn't this a weapon room?... is it possible that the Colonel used this as a weapon as well?" zaki was confused.

When in the search for weapons in the room, Zaki's eyes focused on one weapon that was displayed on the wall, yes, the weapon was the sword seen by Jancoct sir earlier.

"Hmm. Jancoct sir was looking at this sword," he said curiously.

However, he also saw a gun was right on top of the sword was displayed, it looks the color and pattern of the gun looks exactly the same as the sword under it, which is the same color and style, it is black with a golden color.

And in dismay, Zaki thought seriously about which weapon he could use to help the two of them.

"Is this little thing useful?.. because I've forgotten how to use something like this" he said in an unconvinced tone.

Suddenly, a loud bang came from outside the building.

"Sadly, there is no more time, hopefully this thing can be useful," said Zaki complained as he picked up and brought the gun to use.

As Zaki raced out of the building, he saw that some of the columns had been smashed to ashes, and luckily the pole Casta and the others used was a little bit away from the poles that were targeted to be destroyed.

Casta who saw Zaki had just come out of the main door and ran towards the stairs and called out to him.

"Oi Zaki, wherever you have been." said Casta who looked panicked and shed a few tears.

"What's going on?" zaki was confused.

"Major Misca." Linda said with the same expression as Casta.

Then hearing that Zaki turned his gaze towards the dust that covered the fight of Major Misca and the stranger.

As the dust slowly began to dissipate, Major Misca's scarred body lay on the street, as well as some soldiers who were on standby to shoot at the stranger also lying with blood and there were some whose armor looks had been destroyed due to a very sharp wind attack.

"Misca.." said Mr. Jancoct while kneeling with a wound to his leg.

"Haha... Haha.." the foreign man laughed as he looked around and was filled with the casualties he had already managed to take down.

Seeing this, Casta tried to get out from behind the pole and ran to Major Misca to save him.

"Major.." said Casta while laying down Major Misca's head.

"Hmph..I'm sorry Casta. I can't protect you guys" said Major Misca, laughing as she held back the wounds on her body.

"You don't have to think about that, you stupid Major" said Casta, angered by his tears.

"Haha.I will punish you for calling me stupid," Major Misca chuckled.

The stranger could only be speechless seeing Casta and Misca right below him.

"Heeh... Are you done with the drama?" said the man in a slow tone and a look of bored expression.

"You don't have much to say" cried Casta angrily at the stranger.

Because of that shout, the man became angry.

"Then, I will immediately eliminate the two of you first," with a serious tone and a sharp eye look towards Casta and Misca.

Then the man raised his hand up and gathered the black wind and turned it into a wind spear.

Seeing that Ayla came out from behind the pole to Casta and Major Misca, Linda and Yuichi also came out and ran towards Zaki who was standing near Jancoct sir.

"Zaki..is there nothing we can do to help them?" linda asked with a panicked expression.

Zaki just fell silent and held an object placed behind his back shirt.

"Currently, this thing can be useful, while weapons like the Jancoct sir are incapable of fighting it!" zaki said in a heart filled with doubt.

With a sharp and serious eye Zaki looked towards the man who was preparing to throw the wind spear he had made towards Casta and Misca.

As Zaki was muttering to himself, suddenly Ayla's voice came out.

"Stop!. or Colonel Mervis will look for you because you have attacked this place.." Ayla shouted at the stranger while standing in front of Casta and Major Misca while stretching her arms.

"Huh?... A mervis?" ask the man confused.

"Yes, he is a great Colonel and the owner of this place" Ayla said in an angry but cute voice.

"Haah?. You think I care about that?" said the man again in an annoyed tone.

Having no idea what to say anymore, Ayla just fell silent with an angry expression and puffed her cheeks and looked very cute.

"Hmph...if you are done, then I will end this immediately," said the man preparing to throw the wind spear in his hand.

Casta and Ayla who saw the movement could only lower their gaze while closing their eyes, whereas Misca could only smile a little because she thought that was the end of her life journey.

Zaki, Jancoct sir, and Yuichi who saw that were only able to clench their hands very firmly and grind their teeth.

"Oi Zaki... Can't we do something?" yuichi said in an annoyed tone while shaking Zaki's body.

"Zaki.." said Linda slowly while looking at Zaki who was just silently staring while looking at the stranger.

Then I heard Linda running down towards Casta and the others.

"Oi Linda, where are you going... Arrrggghhh.I'm like a useless person here" Yuichi said in a confused and upset tone and held his head with both hands.

Then came the voice of the stranger...

"Then die.." cried the stranger began to swing his hand.

Zaki who had been looking at the man then turned his eyes to Linda who was running towards Casta.

In a very short state of time, Zaki suddenly saw something different in front of him.

Yes, he saw a memory from his memory where there was a woman dressed in army fatally wounded in the left forehead, and Zaki saw that there was someone exactly like him and there were four others there.

"What is this." he said quietly in his heart accompanied by great confusion.

Zaki learns that the people in front of him are talking but there is no sound and he only guesses through the movement of their lips.

"I.." he said slowly while looking at the injured woman.

The woman is seen smiling gently even though she is suffering from a serious injury.

When they were talking, two of them moved away, and only three were seen treating the injured woman.

"You okay?" Zaki tries to follow the lip movements of the person who looks similar to him.

Zaki also sees someone similar to himself carrying an unusual weapon, because the picture he sees is only a black and white illusion, but for him it feels very real.

Not long after, the two people who had left had returned with some plants they had brought.

They immediately treated the wounds experienced by their friends with the plants that had been obtained earlier.

However, as they become alert, Zaki finds out because of the movements of those who continue to look towards a single point, yes, that's right, suddenly appeared a group of soldiers carrying firearms and pointed their weapons at them.

Zaki looked at the man who looked like himself could only look at the soldiers who were aiming at them with hateful gazes.

Then suddenly the memory fades and slowly disappears.

"Why.." said Zaki speaking in his heart.

He was in the darkness, where a place full of emptiness was.

"Who am I?. What am I doing here?"

"Can I fix it?"

Zaki kept saying those questions in his heart...

As he stared straight ahead in the darkness, a speck of bright red light appeared talking to him.

"Your friend will die soon.then, do what you can now!" say that red light.

After hearing those words, Zaki suddenly returned to the real world, where in front of him his friends were waiting for death.

Zaki looked back at Linda who was running and a little more to the place where Casta, Ayla and Major Misca were.

Then Zaki turned his gaze towards the stranger who was in the air a considerable distance away from him.

While focusing on the man, then Zaki closed his eyes, Zaki suddenly heard a sentence from the man.

"Spear of the Wi...."

Not yet had the man finish his sentence, Zaki quickly opened his eyes which turned out that his originally black pupils had now turned into a deep blue color, and in the pupil of his eyes there is a picture of a wolf head with silver color.
