Planetes
3. s. The Hell Level Hide and Seek (2)

Elliot's breathing was three times faster than before. Meanwhile the invisible creatures tried to break through the protector he made with his strength.

[I've guessed they won't be able to penetrate this shield. However, until when will this protector survive?]

(ELLIOT BAKA! YOU HEARD NO?!)

〔Clarissa?〕

(Listen! I'm heading towards you, if they gather at one point, it will make it easier for me to destroy them. Hold on until I get there, okay?)

Elliot sighed softly. That girl is really impatient, huh?

〔Support it's for sure. But..〕

(But what?!)

〔The protective layer I made is soon destroyed.〕

(NAME FROM EARLIER DONG, BEGO!)

Ryan would not want to speed up his pace. While running, he shoots the creatures with his magic bullet gun. He had to get to the place where Elliot was. If not, they've been doing all of this for nothing since.

'These bastards must be waiting for an opportunity where we make a sound or show a face.' Ryan bathes. 'Whatever happens, we cannot lose!'

The figure of a terrible creature managed to chase Ryan and make Ryan was forced to immediately turn it into stone. He held back his emotions so as not to explode.

In fact, the creatures in this game deliberately lure Ryan to make a sound or show a face. That's the biggest thing in this game.

Meanwhile, Elliot was still speechless inside the energy dome he had just created with his face still covered in a mask. It was impossible for him to let go at this moment, moreover those creatures still stole his soul essence.

「Sometimes, we don't know how the end greets us, right?」poseidon's voice echoed in Elliot's head.

〔Possy, than you mock me, better help me.〕Elliot looked at his other self. Surely Poseidon was not there, but Elliot seemed to see the figure of Poseidon there.

「So, at the end of the day I also have to intervene huh, Neptune?」

〔Some of my strength will be with you. So, there's no harm if you help me, right?〕

「Alright, tired of me answering with you.」Poseidon then appears before Elliot, then penetrates into Elliot's body and says. 「Listen, we only have less than 3 minutes! More than that would be dangerous for you!」

〔I understand.〕

(Elliot! Are you currently inside an energy dome?) suddenly Ryan's voice echoed in Elliot's head.

〔Ah, yes. I made it earlier. Can I get out?〕

(Don't, unless you want to get hit by an explosion.)

〔Nothing, I can hold it.〕

With the power of his eyes, Ryan made all the spirits in the place to stone and smashed them with magic. At least this left him exhausted quickly due to the outrageous number of spirits.

Just as the sun was rising, Ryan had managed to destroy all the remaining evil spirits in the building. Ryan's breath was puffing. His mana was drained quite a lot because the ritual this time made him use quite a large amount of magic.

"Clarissa, Clarissa?" Elliot approached the girl in the man's disguise. "You can stand? Is anyone hurt?" the face of the bentala showed an anxious expression.

"You don't have to worry, there are no serious injuries" Ryan replied as he caught his breath. "here."

Elliot was a bit awkward when Ryan asked him to hug him. Apparently still imagined in his mind will Ryan's rejection of him.

"What are you doing? I need additional Mana at the moment." Ryan's brows furrowed in annoyance.

"Ah, yes! Please." Elliot hugged the girl tightly and closed his eyes.

Ryan again bit the bentala shoulder and this time Elliot felt the pain because the bite of the girl was so strong. Come to think of it, she became similar to the female character in Japanese animation that her son used to watch. The difference is that the woman produces chakra and not Mana.

Ryan let go of his bite and let go of Elliot's embrace. His face looks red.

"You don't have to hug me that hard, El."

"Eh? Sorry!" the bentala looked wrong. "Anu, just now. who helped us is Poseidon."

Ain Ryan's twins are breaking into a pattern and suddenly he feels pain. Of course that worries Elliot.

"Clarissa?"

"DON'T COME ANY CLOSER!"

"But—"

"THE CAT DON'T COME ANY CLOSER!" Ryan roared furiously.

Elliot took a few steps away. He did not dare to break because he did not want the girl to hate him. Even though the girl's condition is worrying.

「Will he go out?」a foreign voice in Ryan's ear made the girl turn her eyes to the source of the sound.

Consciousness as Ryan was instantly lost when he saw the figure of Poseidon, replaced by someone who laughs horribly. That's Chylara, Ryan's cruel and merciless alter ego. Chylara licked her upper lip when she saw the figure of Poseidon.

"Clarissa?" although Elliot realizes there is something wrong with the girl he likes, he does not know how to behave.

"Who are you calling Clarissa, huh? I'm Chylara!" that figure rebuked Elliot.

Jesus, even Elliot just realized that the color of the girl's eyes is no longer yellow honey, but amethyst purple. Poseidon advanced forward, taking a stance of protecting Elliot.

「Do not hurt Neptune, he knows nothing about you, Medusa. If you have a grudge, vent it to me.」

"He, interesting." Chylara's scary smile appeared and suddenly the girl's fingers formed claws. He charged towards Poseidon. "Prepare to be destroyed, Poseidon!!"
