Volume 3 Chapter 4: Reunion

While waiting for dinner, I ask their names since we are traveling, and we should know each other.

"I'm Yusa Arisa. This girl is Ichinose, and the boys beside Ichinose are Natsuki and Misato. and Last but not least, this waitress is Shiroumi. They are from the other world too."

"Other world?"

"Yes, they said that their principal summoned them. It turns out that that principal knows about this world."

"You didn't remember?"

"I have no memories of my family. I know another person who is from the world you were saying."

"Who are they?"

"Hizuki Sumire as Takanashi Mori from this world."

"Eh?! Sumire?"

"It's your cousin, right? Natsuki-kun?"

"Well yeah. But she didn't talk to anyone. Neither me nor her parents tho."

"Where is Sumire right now?"

"Probably, they are with my friend."

"Now you mentioned it, why did you leave your country?"

"I left the country, But i didn't abandon my dream. Do you really want to know what is happening in our country right now?"

"We insist on seeing Sumire since she is Natsuki-Kun's cousin, that's why we want to hear about your land first."

"War"

"War? What kind of war?"

"War without light."

"What do you mean by that?

"Are you referring to war without hope?"

"Well, you could say it like that. The current situation in our country is worse than before. I became the country's enemy, that's why I ran away here."

"What happened? Why did you become their enemy?"

"While they are torturing my sister, i forgot what is happening and killed everyone in that court. After that, I fainted and suddenly remembered what I did. So what do you think? Am I the same person?"

"You mentioned that you got amnesia right? You forgot what was happening and after that incident, you remember what you did? That's clear it's not you who killed those people inside the court. Well it's you but it's difference consciousness"

"So I'm really starting to vanish—"

I didn't sense anything and suddenly, four shinobi showed up to us inside the inn.

"Do not move, or you'll be dead instant"

Arisa tried to move and I stopped her.

"Don't move Arisa. They are strong."

"Pardon us, Arisu-sama, it's nice to see you again."

That voice… It's the princess who saves me from being killed by the Royal cops.

"Your majesty, what are you doing here? You're supposed to be in the palace right now."

"That… that's not happening. In our current situation right now, I can't go back there."

"So? Who are those people with you?"

"I'll introduce myself first. I'm Princess Juliet, I was born to rule the Royal Land."

"I'm Princess Victoria, Ruler of the Land of nature."

"I'm Princess Pandora, Ruler of the land of wind."

"I'm Princess Charlotte, the ruler of founder land."

"I'm Julia, an old knight."

"What? Why do all princesses do this?"

"Since we found you, why don't we have a little chat? You people should know about this too."

It's like we can't rest at ease at this rate.

"Arisu, everyone fell into their trap."

"Fell into their trap?"

"That's right, the demons did something about everyone. Probably, that's manipulating skill. The skill that if you looked into their eyes, your body will be manipulated by its power. It's visual magic I guess."

"So that means the people I killed were innocent?"

"We are not sure about that either. But we, the princess, have a duty to do right now. Did you know about the seven deadly sins? Amatsuru, can you get out of there right?"

"Do you know Amatsuru?"

"Of course, she is my first friend after all."

"Jeez, you didn't change a little bit all this time. Arisu, you can do the summoning magic right? You can summon me anytime. I forgot to tell you that I can be removed inside you by summoning me."

"Well, I'll try… I summoned the first demon, Amatsuru!"

As she said, she really did summon me in front of me."

Wow, i didn't know you were that pretty—"

"Shut your mouth dumbass"

"Alright, ma'am."

"Jeez, cold-headed as always. Anyway, Amatsuru, you did tell Arisu about the seven deadly sins right?"

"I already explained it to him. And it seems like he is the Wrath one."

"Then, about the sword?"

"I already did."

"So, Arisu, what do you think? Coming back to save our country? No, the world?"

"Not for now, I have things to do."

"Is it the curse about your little sister?"

"Curse? I can lift any curse." Charlotte Princess said.

"You'll help me out?"

"Of course, you are a proud swordsman in our land. Also, I liked to treat you well."

"We like to do it right now since we are saving time for the 7 deadly sins to wake."

"Shinoe, Arisa, everyone. We'll be leaving now. That's for everything, goodby—"

"A thunder strike destroyed the inn. Thanks to my ears, I activated the heavenly sphere that fast. I wonder what is happening this time.

A girl floating in the sky facing toward three X Demons.

What is this? There are tons of X demons.

"Everyone, get ready! Shinoe, Protect the princesses and get out of here."

"What's that? I feel fear inside my body."

"Arisu, that's the Thunder pillar."

Arisa walked out toward the pillar.

"Hey!!! Sato-san! Long time no see!!!"

The looks of the pillar's eyes were surprising. The pillar went down to see Arisa.

"K–Kazanawa-san? Is that really you?"

"Yes, it's really me."

Girls are so emotional. We are in the middle of death so get your ass awake.

"Save those reunions later, let's focus on four enemies firs—"

The pillar shockingly hugged me tightly. What is it this time? I can't breathe, her breast is choking me!

"Amayori-kun! I'm glad to see you too!"

"H–Hey! I can't b–breath!"

"Oh, sorry, I carried out. It's been a long time for you all. Do you still remember me, Arisu?"

She called out my name suddenly. Does that mean she knows me before? Or me when I still haven't still amnesia?

"Maybe not, I guess. Something happens to you terribly at that time. I didn't manage to save you."

"Let's talk later, this demon is troublesome to me."

"Huh? That kind of enemy? Troublesome to you? You used to crush every strong opponent before."

"I'll tell you everything later so let's focus first."

"Alright, mister cold guy."

That's a harsh reply.

The X Demon that I fought on the ship lands down and walks toward us. The look on his face seems very happy. I can feel the joy inside him. I wonder why he had that at this moment.

"Kitahara! What a coincidence. Do you really want to fight me that bad?"

"Er… Who are you?"

"Aren't you being so mean? Anyways, everyone, leave this boy to me."

"Arisa, if you can fight, help the pillar girl."

We vanished and went to a place where no one could interfere in our fight.

"Are you now confident about defeating me?"

"Who knows—"

I know he attacks surprisingly without listening to what I'm saying. The last time in our fight, he was not careful around him so maybe the heavenly sky will work somehow.

He appears in front of me and strikes a punch. His arms were cut into pieces and he fell back.

"Whoa… that's dangerous. What the hell is that thing? I didn't even see that. MUAHAHAHA this is getting exciting."

As my heavenly sphere vanished, I started to move my own body and strike the sword at him.

Like the old fight, he didn't seem to get stronger. He is still the same. Maybe I can kill him this time. Would Kusanagi work again if I used it? What if I try to use the perfect Kusanagi?

"Cut that crap off, you barely survived like nothing last time. I'm still conserving my strength to use it at the right time. This is not the right time so don't do stupid."

"Yes ma'am. Why I'm always called stupid."

"Don't complain dumbass."

His punch is getting heavier. His strength is increasing. He'll be faster soon. But if he is even furthermore faster than what I expected, I might not be able to dodge that with this eye of mine.

"Eye? Hmm…"

"Ugh… What did you do to my eye?" I asked Amatsuru

"Now, open your eyes."

I opened my eyes and I was able to use my left eye.

"Thanks, Amatsuru, I can now fight fairly."

"So you lost your left eye? Nothing will happen if you have it again. More than that, I'm not curious how the hell that happens. That regeneration… No, it's organ regeneration. Do you tell me that you have demon blood too? Even if you have demon blood, you can't still regenerate that fast. Even I can't regenerate that quickly. Not only that. I just want to say, are you still human? Those red eyes of yours. Recently, my skin started to tremble. KUAHHAHAHA!!!"

"What's funny?"

"As I thought so, you are really interesting to fight with!"

The atmosphere changes. The wind blows earlier stopped. Intense magic is building inside his body. And their blood is fusing with his magic. This will be a serious fight now. I made it this far to kill demons, I won't waste everything.

I drop my sword and loosen up the bandage from my left hand.

"Eh? You are going to try that one? Just loosen it up. Don't completely remove that. This enemy is not that strong."

Amatsuru and I trained inside her realm. Which means I spend half of the year inside. The inside, which is the time, is different outside. During those times, I always do exercises. She also taught me about combat skills. And most of that. She teaches me techniques of sun magic which is a really big help. But now, I don't think it's time to use that here. That's why I'll just loosen this bandage just a bit and it will be enough to defeat Kazura.

He flies and throws hundreds of explosive spheres toward me.

"Destruction storm!"

With my magic control. I managed to control the weather and made four tornadoes.

Before the tornadoes fuse into one, Kazura the four gigantic spheres each one of the tornadoes. I think that won't do anything but shockingly it blew the tornadoes away and vanished.

"Don't underestimate my kiddo. Like you, I can also use five elements of magic."

He made a tornado. He was inside and was creating hundreds of spheres Fire and thunder. Which means he will fire it everywhere.

I tried to use a hundred thunder spears. I got rid of them but he still released more.

"Massive Thunder-Clap!"

Two girls have said the same technique. I looked back and saw Lisa and Ryuka.

"L-Lisa? R-Ryuka? What are you guys doing here?"

"It's not just us, Look at it."

They pointed out the village. The village was being attacked by demons. But I don't have to think about the village anymore because it was being protected by Futoshi, Maki, and Sachi.

"Why everyone is here–"

I carried out. I forgot that I was in the middle of a fight and didn't know that he threw hundreds of spheres toward me.

"Water Magic, Dragon Roar!"

That magic… It's Kaori!

"What's going on? Why are you guys here? You guys are supposed to be in the Land of Nature."

"Arisu, we will bring everyone back. That's why we came here for your help."

" Shikito, Kaoru, and Coco are waiting for us. That's why we have to retrieve you back with us to not waste their efforts."

"Where are they? What are they doing?"

"They are spying on both Lands of Nature and Royal Land."

"Then how did you find me?"

"Let's talk later, let's finish this business first."

Amatsuru, lend me your power.

"Death Reality."

I used death reality for an instant kill. Since I controlled Death Reality perfectly, we appear in a different place. A place was far different than the death path.

I asked Amatsuru what that was. She said that this place is the true place of the power of Death Reality. It was called "Demon Realm".

"Kazura, talk"

As Kazura sees Amatsuru, he immediately Kneels. To a powerful like Kazura just kneel on Amatsuru. I guess, Amatsuru is fearful in her glory time.

"Amatsuru-sama, I have now completed what mission you gave me."
