Mission - 4

Standing next to one another, Oarion and Izado had yet to exchange a single word, the anomaly was watching the landscape visible from the building roof with attention while the human was trying to get his attention.

"Oarion?" simply said Izado after a while, choosing to call out to him to get his attention.

"What's the matter Izado?" responded the anomaly as he turned to face him.

"I noticed that you've been quite a thorn in the anomaly hunters side lately, they won't stop speaking of the one who take away people's faces" spoke Izado with a grin on his face.

"I have indeed noticed that the hunters seemed to recognise me, what are you getting at?" questionned the venerer.

"You're a celebrity to them now, they loathe you because of the event you must have been born from" spoke the man, moving his raised index around.

"The event I was born from?" asked Oarion, not quite certain of what he was refering to.

"Anomalies are named that but in truth, they are more of a byproduct of the actual anomaly" started explaining the human, his expression still retaining his smile as he did.

"An anomaly is an event that should have happened but never did, most anomalies are born from things like an assault or murder who didn't happen as it should have, the severity gets higher the higher you go in ranks, however, the AAA anomalies aren't born from such small events" spoke Izado, leaving some suspens between his words.

"They are born from calamities or world scale events that never happened as they should have, in a sense, the anomalies are gooddoers but they search to accomplish what their event should have, a decade back, an anomaly was born from an economical event meant to strike nearly the whole world, starting with the united states, the anomaly was capable of using a curse making anyone hit with it, go bankrupt, it was destroyed before it could become a bigger threat but I think you get what I am trying to say here" uttered the man as he prepared to go onto his other point.

"Now, some AAA anomalies are different from the others, they aren't the result of an event that should have happened here but from an event meant to happen in another world, normally, an AAA anomalies apparition is preceded by a great accumulation of energy in the area of the event but in the case that i talked about, the AAA anomaly just pop out of nowhere, completely slipping under the radar, that's you Oarion" spoke Izado, his smile as strong as ever.

"I see but that doesn't answer why they would loathe because of the event I come from" remarked the venerer and the human slapped his own forehead as he realised that he missed a few things.

"Ah, that is just because anomalies are all different in appearance right? The stronger the anomaly, the more define its appearance is in comparison to the event its tied to, since you look so much like a human, they must be assuming that you were born from the sole action of a person and thus carry their appearance in some form and let me tell you, human shaped anomalies can pretty much only mean one thing, great genociders and commiter in mass and in an especially horrible way of the worst atrocities possible" responded Izado.

"So, what event were you born from Oarion?" Izado asked the question he had been meaning to ask for a while.

Oarion wasn't exactly born from any event as he wasn't an actual anomaly in the first place but he could come up with something based on his goal.

"The event that didn't happen? I guess that would be the world going as it should have" he responded with his own, much creepier smile, a vague and strange answer but Izado didn't believe he could get much more out of him.

"Well, I guess its time for me to reveal the first reason of my presence here" talked Izado as he pulled out a bunch of papers from his large sleeve.

"I would like you to do something for me" revealed the human, seeing no objection from the anomaly, he started explaining his mission.

"I believe you had a first encounter with Tappu Daburu, the redhead with the brass knuckles" started saying Izado.

"Indeed, it was a total beatdown but I should be able to hold my own now and defeat her" commented Oarion.

"Did you get a look at the two girls that accompanied her?" asked Izado.

"I saw them from afar, through a window, a blonde and dark haired girls right?" Oarion confirmed that he had seen them and Izado smirked.

"The blonde one, Himari is a special case, she's an anomaly well, there is an anomaly that devours other anomalies before they can truly appear, she has stopped the apparition of AAA ranks, apart from you, for a few years now and the amount of A and B ranks has also dropped significantly, if we want to win and put the anomalies as the rulers, we need to deal with her" explained the human.

"You want me to kill her? She's quite a bit weaker than the redhead, anyone should be able to do it, no?" responded Oarion.

"I don't want her killed, that would also kill the anomaly inside of her, the well if you will, it is comparable to an AAA ranks in strength and can be let out of her under a certain situation" spoke Izado.

"I want the well to be let out, it is mindless and very berkerish in nature but its strength will cause damage to the anomaly hunters, they will have to defeat it as a well that was unleashed cannot be sealed again, the rate of apparition of anomalies will come back and the hunters will come out with reduced strength, its win-win!" he then said, throwing his arms up to mimic victory.

"I strongly believe you are the best for this mission, the others are too in touch with their event to follow such a procedure" he added afterward in a low tone.

"And what is it that I need to do to have her release the well?" asked Oarion as he skimmed through the papers Izado handed to him, it was a bunch of intel concerning the target and her teammate, the dark haired girl as well as some things concerning the organisation of the anomaly hunters, everything to prepare a good plan.

"You just need to make her real mad, that's it" responded the human flatly.

"She should have some self-control and even if she does get mad, it doesn't mean it will come out, you need to make her so mad, she passes out from sheer anger, blackout from seeing red, you see?" he added after that.

"I see, so angry heh? I know you will most likely be watching from afar but Izado, I think even you will want to face the other way when I enact my plan" spoke the venerer before walking away, exiting the rooftop without letting Izado answer him.

He had seen and done some pretty horrible stuff but he felt like he should follow the advice, he had sounded very truthful in that instant.

Don't hesitate to say if you have any idea you would like to see!
