Chapter 168 Origami Tobiichi part 3

"What?! Shidou is missing?!"

A few minutes before the end of lunch break, in the junior high school classroom, Kotori's cell phone was pressed against her ear, making a suspicious sound.

Then Kotori carefully glanced at Yoshino and Natsumi not far away. Seeing that they were not paying attention to this side, Kotori breathed a sigh of relief and then lowered her voice and said, "What is going on? Shouldn't Shidou be in school now?"

"Yes... that should have been the case, but according to the report from Analyst Murasame, the Katsu and Shidou sneaked out of the school during lunch break..." said the Ratatosk member on the other end of the phone.

"Huh? He slipped out during lunch break---it hasn't been that long now, right? Why do you say he's 'missing'?" Kotori frowned slightly.

"Ah---that's because after they sneaked out of school and went to Tobiichi Origami's house, we couldn't find any trace of Shidou only Katsu and he is unconscious from special medicine."

"Origami Tobiichi's house? Why would they go there?"

"Well, according to the information provided by Tohka, it seems that their homeroom teacher informed them this morning that Tobiichi Origami transferred to another school."

"this… …"

Kotori frowned. In fact, she knew what happened at the Tengu Festival, and she also saw everything that happened on Friday night through Ratatoskr afterwards. She was not unaware of the fact that Origami was wearing DEM's when she showed up last.

Origami Tobiichi once did help them, even going so far as to become an enemy of DEM, but it is hard to say whether that was some kind of agreement reached between her and DEM...

Or - it is possible that she was brainwashed by DEM. In fact, since the target is DEM Industry, it is not surprising that she was brainwashed.

"If that's the case... ...Based on Brother Ogi's willingness to repay a favor and Shidao's good nature... ...it's no wonder she did this..."

Kotori smacked her lips impatiently, then lowered her voice so that the people around her wouldn't hear, and continued: "But to disappear at this time... is really too suspicious. In the worst case, it's possible that she was kidnapped by DEM - their thing that can suppress spiritual powers... By the way, where are Tohka and the others?"

"Tohka, the Yamai sisters, and Miku are all having lunch at their respective schools. Except for Miku, who seems to be in a low mood for some reason, the others are all fine."

"I see. Although it's not good to make them worry, we can't just keep hiding it. Anyway, everyone should go and track down the whereabouts of and Shidou, and I will return to Fraxinus immediately. No matter what, I have to find Shidou before the situation got worst"

"Yes! "

The other end of the phone was filled with responses from the members of Fraxinus. Kotori ended the call and put the phone in her pocket, letting out a sigh of relief.

Then, while changing the ribbon, she walked towards and the others Yoshino and Natsumi who were eating their lunch boxes at the table together.

"Kotori? Who's calling?" Natsumi looked at Kotori and asked curiously. Yoshinon and Yoshino also gave her the same look.

"Ah...it's about work."

As soon as she finished speaking, she showed an uncomfortable expression and squatted on the spot, holding her stomach.

"Hmm…Hmm—"

"What's wrong with you, Kotori? Are you okay?" Natsumi stood up and came over to support Kotori with concern.

"Well, I don't seem to be feeling well... Sorry, I have to leave early today... Can you tell the teacher for me?"

"Oh, okay...but are you okay? Do you want to go to the infirmary?"

"It's okay. I'll leave the leave to you." Kotori pretended to be in pain, took her schoolbag in her hand, and left the classroom slowly - not towards the entrance where the shoe cabinets were placed in the school building, but towards the roof - she wanted to go directly there and teleport directly to Flaxinus who was rushing towards this side.

… …

On the top floor of the hotel, in the presidential suite.

"Is this really okay Ike? Letting her act on her own - even giving her a [God Killer]." Ellen ask in a cold tone to Westcott who was leaning on the sofa.

"Haha---of course it doesn't matter. I am happy that the young wizard is motivated. Moreover, based on previous dealings with the [Wizard], don't you think that letting her launch a sneak attack will have a high success rate? Regardless of other things, the possibility of being able to eliminate the [Wizard] is enough for me to support her in doing anything. Of course, I also want to test the performance of your sister machine [Mordred]."

"… …" Ellen was silent.

As if seeing Ellen's dissatisfaction, Westcott smiled slightly: "Actually, you also have a mission this time."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Ellen immediately became interested.

"Hehe---I think, when Tobiichi Origami and the spirits fight, [they] shouldn't just sit there and do nothing---"

Hearing this, Ellen narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes: "Elliot, the traitor --- Ratatosk..."

"Haha... traitor... let's put it that way." Westcott nodded, acknowledging what Ellen said.

The spirits staying in this city did not gather here by chance, but were settled here under the protection of the Ratatosk Agency, an organization that protects spirits. Both Ellen and Westcott are very clear about this.

Westcott also knew that Ratatoskr would monitor and protect the spirits, respond to space earthquake disasters, and have an aerial ship to fight against DEM's attempts to annihilate and capture the spirits.

If Tobiichi Origami wanted to deal with the spirits, they would definitely try to stop her.

Besides, Mana Takamiya, who was ranked second in strength in the former DEM company, has now left DEM and joined Ratatoskr.

If she took action, Origami would not have the energy to deal with the spirits.

"In other words, you want me to deal with Mana?" After Ellen asked, Westcott slowly shook his head.

"No."

"So, what do you want me to do?"

"I contacted the head office yesterday and asked them to send [Goetia] over."

Hearing what Westcott said, Ellen's eyes widened.

Then, he immediately realized Westcott's intention.

"—You want me to stop the entire Ratatosk fleet?

"Fortunately, you have a strong ability to understand." Westcott raised the corner of his mouth and smiled coldly.

"The battle on the Island, the battle at the Japanese branch, and the satellite incident a while ago—all involved Ratatoskr's airships. I'm sure that ship will be involved this time. But... for the last thing, I might have to thank them."

Westcott shrugged jokingly. However, Ellen responded calmly: "Is this really okay? Once you use Goetia, you can't show mercy. In the end, it may not be as simple as stopping it."

"Well. It doesn't matter. You are in charge of this matter. Do whatever you want. If they crash, it means that their ships are just like that." Westcott crossed his legs, supported his chin, and smiled intriguingly. "In this way, as long as Tobiichi Origami can deal with the [Wizard], everything will be fine."

Ellen listened to Westcott's words, took a breath, and nodded deeply.

… …

Near Raizen High School, Yuzuru, Kakuya, Tohka, and Miku, who rushed over as soon as school was over from Rindouji Academy, gathered together---

Because the space earthquake alarm sounded just now, it was clearly time to go home from school, but apart from the four of them, there was another girl who suddenly appeared---

"Origami Tobiichi?! Why are you here?"

"To kill you---!"

… …

In a hidden area, cracked walls and a ceiling with exposed steel bars together form a dark space that looks like a ruin.

Sitting on the chair, Shidou opened his eyes dazedly, feeling a burst of fatigue in his body. He looked around subconsciously, and then his brain slowly started to work and analyzed the current situation.

Katsu and Shidou went to find Tobiichi Origami, but he was drugged and knocked unconscious. Now he is tied to a chair... Emmm, was he kidnapped? Where is Katsu he should be in the same situation as himself.

Shidou shook his head to make himself more awake.

"Help! Is there anyone?! Help?! Kidnapping, extortion, robbery, rape! Help!!"
