52 Episode 52: The Demon Invasion Part 1

I pedaled hard with Irina behind me. I summoned back Yuri so she is not present at the moment. While on the way, everywhere is chaos and I can see magicians and humans alike on the area trying their best to repel the demons attacking. This is just similar to a zombie apocalypse or monster attacks. Enemies are here and there everywhere I turn. Luckily, the school seemed to be fine for now since it is silent and peaceful around the vicinity of the area. I don't see any demons lurking about nearby so I sighed in relief before I drove the bike to the gate. The students were oblivious about what was going on around the city and because of the interference of digital items, they can't use their phones to check what is happening right now.

"Care to explain Kazuma? You are not being clear on what was happening right now and I am confused and scared right now. Did I just got involved in something I shouldn't have?" Irina asked me as I entered the gate.

"I will tell later. We need to secure the place first or else, everything will be in trouble as people here never really follow instructions and just do whatever they wanted to do."

We entered the school gate and saw Moonlight and Godou standing guard in front of the gate. They seemed to be watching over the gate for quite a while.

"How is the situation outside the school premises Kazuma?" Godou asked on his serious tone.

"Not really good. I saw lots of demons here and there and there are other magicians defending but I don't think it is safe to assume that they will stop anytime soon," I said.

"Does the demons able to reach the vicinity of the school? Many of the students are still oblivious on what was going on so it is best that they don't know and let the afternoon pass," Moonlight said as she looked into her phone.

"I don't think so, it would seem like they will find their way here sooner or later. They are already not too far but they are not yet on the vicinity so it would be sooner or later that they will appear here," I explained.

"Plus, this place is where most of the demons deployed never came back so it is more likely that they would go here in full force," Godou added.

"Demon bastards as always. Giving us magicians trouble as always," Moonlight shook her head before her gaze landed on Irina who is still hiding behind me.

"Kazuma, did you just bring a civilian? She is not a magician, why is she listening to our plan?" Moonlight pointed at her.

"Wait, wait. It's alright right? The whole of Tokyo is in lockdown anyway so we don't need to hold back on our magic."

"Well, you got a point," Moonlight sighed and holds the temple of her head.

This time, Irina responded to our conversation. "What do you mean the whole of Tokyo is in lockdown? And what is this about demons and magicians that you all are saying? Can anyone explain this to me?"

"Ah what a pain, Godou you explain. You too Kazuma. It is too energy-consuming to explain the information," Moonlight complained.

"Ah... Akari you need to change that attitude of yours. It's too annoying and everything is boring and energy-consuming for you. Anyways, you really want to learn? It's not really necessary for you to learn the existence of these guys and our existence you know," Godou said as he stares intensely on Irina. "Are you ready?"

Irina gulped and nodded.

"Alright. Where should I start...hmmm...-"

"Godou, stop that for now! The demons are here!" Moonlight shouted and pulls out the bamboo sword on her space dimensional storage.

"Ah, great. Storytelling will be postponed, for now, girl. We need to deal with something. Kazuma, protect her," Godou said as he punches the ground and the soil crawls towards his arms causing Irina to shook.

"I can go and support. I will have my familiars do it."

"Familiars?" Godou frowned.

I summoned Yuri and Yuto out. "You know the drill, protect her."

Godou was baffled speechless but I disregarded what his reaction is and activated the gloves and shoes together before I dashed and joined Moonlight who is defending the gate. I already saw the other students looking at us with strange looks and baffled stares but we didn't care. If everything is ruined, we will be done in this situation.

"Godou! What are you doing?! Get here already and assist us! The demons will start pouring in if we don't stop them!" Moonlight shouted.

"Ah! Right!"

The demons indeed really had different looks on their body. Most of them have the common red colors but some of them have the violet color which means that they are the darkness element demons.

Moonlight readies the bamboo sword and when one demon dashed towards her, Moonlight swiped once and the demon was slashed in half.

"Celestial Slash: Slicing through Space!"

Not only the demon that dashed through her were sliced in half, but even the demons behind the one killed were also sliced in half without sparing anyone. I was amazed by her skill but it was a unique sword magic style so I am not jealous. Besides, I also have my own magic skills.

Demons started to pour out in the gate but Godou did not care much about it. He punched his hands together and a shockwave occurred causing the demons to tumble. After doing so, Godou grinned and punched the ground hard sending another shockwave but sending it this time to the demons. I thought it was the same shockwave but before I can start charging, the ground started to release big spikes causing the demons above it to get killed and pierced to death.

"We need to start working Kazuma. This will be your first time to do some clearing operation. Are you ready?"
