Bar

Two creatures could easily kill a rank eight Anomaly. If not for the fact that the one who said it was Yamda, Komi would instinctively think it was a lie!

It was a miracle that those two beings side with humanity. As far as Komi remembered, there were about six creatures roaming the street before the sunset.

Regardless, Komi was relieved for the fact these mythical-like beings were friendly towards humans.

He doubted the city would last until tomorrow should they attack!

"Just who is the one who summoned them?" He asked curiously but didn't hope for any answer. This was because until now, it had yet to be discovered or at least that was what he thought.

"It's Sixth."

"Eh?" He blurted out an interjection and was lost for words. Also, for a brief moment, his eyes turned blank out of surprise and couldn't believe such an answer.

Took him a few seconds to snap from his daze.

"So, the one who arranges us to defeat that thing is Sixth? But rumors suggest that he was the one who summoned that dragon."

It didn't make sense, Komi added silently.

Only few knew that Sixth arranged fate as though melody and those few people were Komi. His captain had a large network connection.

Gaining uncommon and rare information was quite easy for Komi. He simply asked his captain.

Of course, curiosity killed the cat so Komi only asked questions according to his situation.

"Rumors are rumors, they are often wrong. I discovered it thanks to my connection." Yamda rubbed the edge of the cigarette on the nearest table and put it on a silver cigarette case.

As they talked, the blood silently flowed to the corner of the bar as though the floor wasn't even. Not only on the floor, the one on the ceiling and walls too.

Their movements were slow like snails.

"I don't quite understand. Why would All Beyond view Sixth as an enemy?"

"They are afraid of the unknown. Sixth may not show his maliciousness now but you can't be certain with the future.

The stronger one becomes, the closer they are to madness. Have you considered what would happen if someone like Sixth lost control?"

Komi was enlightened, so that's the case. All Beyond wanted to catch him before something went wrong. They rather be safe than sorry.

He paused for a short moment and said, "But rather than chase him like he did something wrong, why don't All Beyond approach him with no ill intention?"

Yamda shrugged his shoulders, "I'm not either the grandmaster in the branch or HQ."

Komi let out an awkward laugh.

"Look at you two, chit chat in the middle of bloody corpses. How can your nose get used with the smell?" A woman's voice sounded near the entrance of the bar, seemingly displeased.

"Jyun-sama, you're here." Komi said politely with a smile as he quickly straightened his body.

The door opened and showed a figure. She was wearing a black, witch hat. Black robe like that of an ancient mage and underneath her robe was brown blouse.

Her skirt was to her knee and black, long tight covered her feet to her skirt.

Her facial features were beautiful. With a glance, she appeared to have a bad temperament.

"Sorry to disturb your dream, princess," Yamda said teasingly with a smile and raised his right hand.
