Chapter 30 [The Chase for the Spell Caster]

Now with the chase underway for the mysterious person that interupted Yui's capture of Yoshino, Yoshino started to now fight back to attempt to get herself away from Yui who was now enraged at how the girl wasn't answering her questions...

*Shing!*

Even more shards of ice began being launched at Yui but this didn't do much as Yoshino had hoped it would...

One after the other... The said shards only shattered upon impact on Yui's spear which she spun to deflect the projectiles.

"What's wrong...? Cat got your tongue?"

Yoshino seemed to be panicking as she heard Yui ask this question, as if she was now afraid of Yui unlike before.

I have a order to complete... These projectiles... Why do they never work on her...?

Yoshino tried, tried, and tried but this didn't work as she thought they would.

Yui just kept spinning her spear everytime she tried-- slowly making her way closer and closer to her.

"I don't have the time to mess with you!"

"Oh? You wrecked havoc hear and you expect me to just let you get away with it...? Are you a fool?"

*Whoosh!*

Yoshino erected a wall made of snow to attempt to get away and finish the order that a person that made her a servant gave her.

"Oh? That's new.... But... Too bad for you, this isn't gonna do anything."

Yui bended her legs then jumped over the snow wall without any issues.

"Wha---"

Yoshino was startled that her new "spell" didn't work on the emmensely powerful fox.

*Clang!*

Yui slammed her spear onto the concrete ground making a metalic sound reverberate around her.

"I'll ask again, Who helped you escape?"

Dammit... What is this...? It hurts....

Now in pain, Yoshino covered her ears as the sound from Yui's spear entered her ears causing it to hurt.

"I-I can't tell.... you.... I'll be killed...."

Still not gonna fess up, huh?

The silver-haired activated another capture spell with the expectation of it working this time.

"Fine, I'll get our superior to make you confess."

"Haaaaaaaah!"

A voice of someone in the distance, behind Yui was heard along with fast-paced footsteps.

More reinforcements, huh?

Fine, I'll take you on...

Yui turned the oposite direction with Yoshino now binded and already about to teleport to one of the interogation rooms back in the tokyo branch of E.I.M.D with her weapon now on the ready.

"I call upon the spirits in this spear... Lend me your strength... For I am worthy..."

Yui started chanting a spell for her spear to make her stronger as the unknown enemy that was fast approaching.

Red markings started to appear all over her body just like what happened to Ten when she went into her chaos form...

Both of her eyes turned gold, her senses improved, her mana multiplied, as with her speed and abilities.

Lets see how far I can take this...

Yui began her sprint towards the source of the shouting...

What she had done is potentially dangerous with how concentrated the magic that the spirits on her spear had given her, one wrong move and her mana would be dried up and she would disappear.

***

Currently in the middle of chasing after the person that interupted Yui's capture of Yoshino's "reinforcements", Miku and five others jumped from rooftop to rooftop in order to hunt down the person.

This chase could be compared to how Yui was chased down by the people of the Tokyo branch of Earth's Immortal Management Division had hunted her down with how this chase was a five on one.

"You're not getting away!"

Kuro exclaimed, casting a barrier in front of the caster to stop him or her from getting any more further away from them.

Kuro's attempt to block the caster off was successful, with the person that dispelled Yui's capture spell now at a dead end they were able to catch up.

"Aren't you getting a little cocky, fox?"

The hooded figure spoke with a voice that could be described as a woman's voice, she pulled down her hood exposing long black hair, red eyes, and cat ears on top of her head.

It was Ten- The one that attempted to kill of the Tokyo branch's members.

"Ten... Are you the one that helped that snow woman get out?"

Kanade now with a fox flame on one of her hands attempted to interogate the nekomata.

"I have the obligation to answer to you lot..."

The black-haired cat humanoid laughed at Kanade's attempt on questioning her before she jumping upwards starting the chase once again.

"Get back here!" Kanade exclaimed, chasing after her with the other four right behind her tail.

With magic-based traps that was set by Ten activating one after the other as the girls continued to give chase to their target, the gap between them slowly became wider and wider.... until she was nowhere to be seen.

What fools.... They fell for every single one of them...

The nekomata began to laugh once again as she losses sight of the group that was persuing her, with a menacing grin across her face.

I can't believe that girl agreed to serving me... How stupid is she...? Can't she see that I'm only gonna use her?

"Dammit! I should've sensed the traps...." Kanade now injured due to the explosions of the traps that went off as they chased their target, could only shout in frustration.

I'll make her pay... I'll make sure of it...

Meanwhile, the other four weren't injured at all because of how far away they are from Kanade due to how fast she was moving.

"Are you all right?"

Miku casted a healing spell on the wounds of Kanade making them close back up.

"I'm fine, It's just a few scratches."

"A few scratches? What if you died?!"

Akagi shouted in concern, seeing how badly injured Kanade had gotten.

"Wha- Why are you shouting? I'm fine, aren't I? Look--"

Kanade raised both arms showing how torn her clothes were, as well as how injured she was.

"Quit lying! You girls are like family to me now... If anything were to happen.... I don't know what I'd do..."

Akagi who was known to the group as the toughest after Yui began to sob.

"Um.... C-Calm down, Akagi."

Shumizu attempted to calm down the crying fox, approaching her slowly but her attempt was only badly received by Akagi.

"Shut up! Look at her! Don't you see how much burns and cuts she got from those traps?!"

Akagi...

Shumizu froze in place as the red head raised her voice.
