The Aoi Syafiqi
The hallway was silent without a single being other than myself breathing, fighting against the dim darkness before the real fight began. Will it be slow or fast, I will also finish this dependency. At least I have to fight as much as I can.
But the atmosphere was not long disturbed by the movement around me. Whether it was a hunch or just my vigilance, I spread my gaze around.
Without giving myself a chance to rashly, I instantly prepared the blackstorage cue right before my palm silently. Fondled provide snapping, “Who's there?!”
“Aoi, yes. Thank goodness.”
‘That voice,’ my mind was immediately provoked for a moment to hear the tone of the voice.
“You are still safe, yes,” greeting Yogairu while showing himself from the shadows in front of me.
“Yogairu, you?”
“Yes, I'm this. Where have you been?” he said with a slight emphasis on the tone, maybe he was overcome with annoyance because I immediately left them without a word.
“Sorry, I'll explain later. The most important thing do you know the source of the explosion sound before?”
I try to divert the conversation from that. If I had told him all the previous events, I wouldn't have been sure if I could explain them, not to mention Yogairu probably wouldn't have believed it.
“Kamigatsuchi,” reply short.
“Kamusgatsuchi? Fire god?”
The answer was enough to amaze me, events like this to the point of bringing a god. Isn't that overdone?
“Iya, just blessing only.”
“Could?”
“Iya, Sister Ayumi.”
‘Ayumi? Is that like Mashiro's story? The man who scooped the gods' blessings, my inner’ for a moment, slightly digested that short answer.
“Then, show me the way.”
After saying that, I immediately walked past Yogairu and down the former tail. However, not a pair of steps past it, Yogairu's grip on my arm made the body response stop.
“Wait Aoi, not just me here.”
“…”
I was silent a thousand words mute, Yogairu's intention must be to meet Syu. But of course it is a free thing, I can also explain it casually.
“Hei, Aoi. Previously, you were from the south there right?”
‘Sial.’
“Yes, I previously did not know the direction of the wind in this colloseum, but I did pass here.”
“Dan Shu? Didn't you meet him?”
“…”
‘He really wants to see her, shit!’
“Aoi?”
Can't be evaded, inevitably I have to explain to him. I swallowed saliva then said, “She, is dead.”
Suddenly, Yogairu's hand was squeezed, he was probably a little shocked to hear it. It is natural, to lose someone who has become one goal with us is a bad dream
“Loying?” his gerrick.
“No, I'm talking the truth. Shu died at the hands of one of the justice sect's men, but he also managed to kill her. Both of them shed blood, see him there will waste time on his sacrifice,” I said at length, I do not want the death of one of our colleagues to be an obstacle to his potential.
“So yes, thank you, Syu. Previously I apologize if borrowing your Skill suddenly,”, Yogairu said with a bow. A man like me works so hard that his tears don't spill on the ground.
“I will continue your sacrifice, Shu,” he added then immediately release my arm and turn in the direction I deserve.
“Then, come on, Aoi.”
“Yes, I also apologize once again, I suddenly left you guys.”
Yogairu faced me and gave a small smile, then said, “It doesn't matter, I know if you also struggle while we're locked up.”
“Thank you, by the way are all the participants free?”
“So that's it, we all Taka and Mafal Party made it out of that magic cage, but,” Yogairu stopped his sentence.
“But?”
‘Ta-Taka? What was? Not just-.’
“He has not returned, actually he is the one who gave himself up to let us be free,” Yogairu added for a moment immediately cut off my thoughts.
“Then the others?” I asked directly, I really want to know what happened when I was gone.
“Soal it...”.
The story begins, Yogairu tells me everything. From the moment I left until the moment we met. Even the conversation about Skill without Ergon, the temporary fight, until the plan that spread in all corners of the wind eye direction undigested in my brain. I'm a little curious about that.
“So the safest place is the room that Azzi and Asteria visited?” askaku after the relief breath Yogairu.
“True, that's the only goal we have now, and the explosion in the west is due to Zylx and his men.”
“Zylx?! But, instead of earlier,” said I was surprised for a moment to remember Mashiro's remark if the figure of the leader of the justice sect was being challenged.
“Not it?”
“Iya, Mashiro and Nathan-sensei are fighting him outside the hallway,” I'm obviously short.
“Ma-Mashiro? The user of the God Skill that disappeared? And also Nathan-sensei?!” sahut Yogairu was surprised by my answer.
“Yes, I don't know if you'll believe my story. But I dare to hold my sayings that.”
“So, after knowing if the magic confinement could only be eliminated by its user, I went straight to the end of the hallway and.”.
This time I was the one who told him all the events I experienced, the exchange of information between us. Starting from leaving them until I met Syu. Not to be let off if I keep Taka small talk with the justice sect, and also my meeting with Mashiro at Zylx headquarters. But, as far as I'm concerned, it certainly doesn't tell me that I come from another world.
“Wait, Ta-Taka?!” yogairu was amazed by my story.
“Iya, but he doesn't look like “Taka” actually. Her hair as well as her eyes like mixed with a purple silhouette color, her tone also changed.”
We both fell silent after my explanation, whether for Yogairu it was my hallucination or not, but he seemed serious about it.
“Cursed Skill, Nightmare,” he said breaking the silence.
“Cursed Skill?”
“True, do you remember a moment Taka fought a mysterious man after we trained a match?”
“Iya, it is true if he is not like his original figure, but at that time there was no change in his physique.”
“I know that, when compared to the physical changes in your eyes, means the same as Taka,” concluded Yogairu, his words have made me quite understand the explanation.
‘Truely too, is the case the same as me and Mashiro?’
After that, there was no conversation between us. Tracing the path of endless passageways for the sake of sheer freedom, is just awful. The longer it goes in, the faster it moves.
Until it reaches a place where the temperature is already different from the usual room. The heat and the heat were blaring at every corner.
“Heat,” grumbled me while wagging my collar many times. It was like going into a barn of fire, even the sound of sparks could be heard in my earlobe.
“Yes, this has already burned this whole room,” reply Yogairu.
“Then, will everyone there be safe?”
“Entahlah, if Kak Ayumi can control her power maybe Mafal will survive, but I don't know this.”
Yogairu stopped in front of the room with no color other than a flaming redness, with no life left other than the fire champ who was continuously crowing loudly. Then she turned her head many times as if looking for something, of course she was looking for her brother figure.
“Yogairu, are you sure?”
I reflect to say it, it does not mean I underestimate Kak Ayumi or Mafal who are there. Looking at this scene, who wouldn't wonder?
“That,” point Yogairu at the collapsed burning wooden chunk.
Not only is a piece of wood burning, but there is visible space underneath.
“Me,” my proposal while removing the sword from the blackstorage.
*wush!
Even without a single enemy in front of me being the main obligation of the Escalation Skill, but that loud slash created a whirlwind that broke the flames. So I used it to figure out the wind waves and increase them.
Real results as I expected, the impact of the attack managed to split the wood of the former foundation of the hallway.
Suddenly, Yogairu immediately ran up to him.
“Ma-Mafal?”
Seriate…..
