“Grooar ..”
Aragami's roar rang out from around Ryan and the others. Slowly, one by one Aragami emerged from the surrounding ruins. They then walked over to Ryan's group. It didn't take long, Ryan, Lindow, Soma, Sakuya, and Alisa were surrounded.
Other than Lindow who had known about the arrival of the Aragami from the beginning, the expressions of Ryan, Soma, Sakuya, and Alisa became very serious.
There are several types of Aragami who surround them. Like Ogretail, Koungo, and also Vajra. In fact, there are hundreds of Vajras in this group.
“Grooar ..”
“Grooar ..”
Seeing this, Ryan who was still in Alisa's arms, held tightly onto Moon Blade. He then escaped from Alisa's embrace.
However, when he had escaped from Alisa's embrace, suddenly Ryan's body collapsed.
“Ryan!” As fast as lightning, Alisa instantly caught Ryan's body.
“Ugh ... thank you, Alisa ..” said Ryan.
Ryan's whole body is very painful. The feeling of helplessness from the bottom of the soul made the fatigue and drowsiness continue to hit Ryan's mind. This caused Ryan's vision to blur.
“Ryan, you always come to protect me in the crucial moments. Now, it's my turn to protect you!” alisa said with a firm look. He then laid Ryan's body to the ground and began to lift his God Arc.
At the same time, Lindow, Soma, and Sakuya immediately stood around Ryan. Alisa then followed and took a position beside sakuya.
"We'll protect you too, Ryan" Lindow said.
Seeing the First Unit and Alisa willing to protect him, Ryan's heart became filled. "I'm sorry .. Because of my condition, I'm a burden."
'This is why I refuse to use Stigma. I had expected that there would be a lot of Aragami I would have to face after defeating Venus. But unfortunately I have no other choice but to use it.' murmured Ryan with slight regret.
In addition to Venus, there were many Aragami who invaded the Russian branch, which is arguably countless.
During their fight with Venus, the Aragami forces that Venus leads receive orders to remain silent and not interfere in the fight.
However, after Venus died, no one else gave orders to the Aragami troops. As a result, they returned to their basic instincts and began to attack.
The hundreds of Vajras who surrounded them began to emit electric sparks from his coat. While the other Aragami, staring hard at Ryan's group as if he was looking at a very delicious prey.
The Aragami prepare to attack Ryan's group in seconds.
Seeing this, Lindow, Soma, Sakuya, and Alisa's hearts beat fast. They were completely concentrated on welcoming the impending attack.
Suddenly, a voice came from the communicator in Ryan's ear.
"I've managed to break it!" hibari shouted from the communicator's end.
Hearing this voice, said in a low voice. "Friends, it looks like the goddess of luck is on our side."
"What do you mean?" ask Alisa.
"Look and watch." Ryan's faint smile as he turned towards the main building of the Russian branch of Fenrir.
Seeing this, Lindow, Soma, Sakuya, and Alisa also looked at Ryan's gaze.
Soon, Hibari's voice is heard again from communicator Ryan.
"The countdown begins!"
"5"
"4"
"3"
"2"
"1"
"Slaid!"
With the fall of Hibari's voice, at the very top of Fenrir's main building, suddenly appeared a hole with a diameter of 7 meters. From the hole appeared a large glass tank accompanied by a fire underneath,
Like a rocket, the glass tank rose upwards and hurtled hard toward the horizon.
"What's that?" Lindow was a little surprised at the sight before him. The same thing happened to Sakuya, Soma, and Alisa, they were surprised to see a glass tank flying above the clouds.
The large glass tank was seen to have a long tail, as if it was a meteor. The tank continued to slide and gradually disappeared in the distance..
At the same time, the savage eyes that were being shown by all the Aragami around Ryan's group, suddenly turned lethargic. As if they were hypnotized.
Even Vajra who had been preparing for his lightning strike, instantly cancelled his attack.
Soon, the heads of the Aragami turned in one direction, beginning to move forward in that direction. And that direction is the direction of the departure of the glass tank containing the tail of Venus.
When Venus dies, the hormone controlling Aragami disappears. Therefore, the hormone released by Amor in a large glass tank is the best bait. With the hormone, Amor can attract the attention of Aragami and cause them to run to chase where Amor went.
Not only did the Aragami around Ryan go after Amor, but all the Aragami in all the branches of Russia, also went after Amor.
"The launch has been successful. Now, it has been detected that all the Aragami from all the branches of Russia went towards Amor. Based on estimates, all Aragami will leave the Russian branch within half an hour" said Hibari from the communicator tool.
Hibari then sounded like she was laughing happily. “This war is over Ryan, thank you for everything. I'll wait for your return, dear ..”
Listening to Hibari's sweet voice, Ryan became relieved. A smile slowly appeared on his face. Shortly after, Ryan's vision went dark. After all the burdens he carried were lifted, he was now able to faint quietly.
~***~
"Ugh .." Ryan woke up staring at the dark green ceiling.
Suddenly, a long-haired man walked into the refugee tent. "Oh, you're awake, Ryan-kun."
"Captain Amamiya?!" Seeing Lindow coming, Ryan immediately got up and sat down on his bed.
"Sstt ..." Lindow put his index finger on his lips. Then he gave Ryan a code to look to his left.
As Ryan looked to the left, he saw Hibari and Alisa sleeping in her seat. Ryan's heart warmed to see all this.
"For two days, they've been looking after you. They're so worried about you .." said Lindow
"So, it's been two days huh .. "Ryan sighed a little. He did not expect that the second time he used Stigma, he would be unconscious for two days.
'As long as I haven't found a solution to restore my soul, then the stigma side effects will continue to grow as more and more I use Stigma.' Ryan thought.
Ryan looked at Lindow. "So, how's the state of the Russian branch after I passed out?"
"Russia has lost 40% of its population, be it civilians, scientists, or soldiers. Meanwhile, public facilities such as hospitals and schools have also been ravaged" Lindow explained
"So, it's appropriate that I'm now being treated in a tent." After saying so, in Ryan's hand suddenly appeared a touch-screen tablet lent by Lindow.
Seeing this, Lindow was a little surprised. "Where do you keep it? Why did it suddenly appear like that?"
Ryan simply smiled at Lindow's question. He then threw the tablet at Lindow.
“I have copied many secret files from the Russian branch, including files regarding the Amor Project. With this, I am sure that the mission entrusted to the Captain has been completed.”
Hearing Ryan's words, Lindow smiled and patted Ryan on the back. "Honestly, I'm still curious about your trick. But, thanks for the hard work."
"And also, there's a lot of things to do after this. If you can continue to help, then I will greatly appreciate it."
"Unfortunately, I'm also very busy." Ryan smiled faintly. "I won't go back to work with you again after this. There's a lot I have to do."
This statement, made Lindow speechless. After a moment of silence, Lindow asked again. "Are you going?"
Ryan nodded his head at Lindow's question.
Lindow took a long breath. "Haah~"
"When are you going?"
"Now."
"Now?" Lindow didn't expect Ryan to leave immediately after he woke up. "Aren't you waiting for these two ladies to wake up?"
"I'll leave a letter for both of them." replied Ryan.
"At least, give them beautiful words." After which, Lindow walked out of the tent while waving his hand.
A moment later, silence re-emerged within the care tent. Ryan wrote two letters to Hibari and Alisa.
"OK, it seems like this is enough." he muttered as he placed the letter on his bed.
