Chapter 44 - Kamiya "God"(LOL) Kanade

Marin: Y… You… From that time…

?: Excuse me, but is there a young lady named San here presently?

Marin was shocked, but the man didn't stopped talking.

?: We are called Fairy Tale.

Meanwhile, Gabriel didn't have idea about what was happening because he wasn't using his En and was concentrated in something else.

Kurumu: He was killed by a monster!? Marin's husband!?

Gabriel: So she knows…

San timidly nodded and wrote something on her booknotes.

Moka: No way… Then us monsters are basically Marin's hated enemies…!?

San: "That's right… If I am found out as a monster then I'll also be forced to leave Marin…"

Her hands were trembling a bit while everyone continued to read the notes.

San: "So that's why… I'm asking, please don't let Marin… Know of my identity."

Tsukune: But… San and Marin, they seem so close that they look like a mother and daughter…

Gabriel's ears let out a small twitch and his eyes narrowed from the sound of incoming heavy footsteps.

?: ...Hoh, I just heard something interesting… Which means that in order to get you discard the human world, all I have to do is get rid of this woman?

Everyone turned around and saw a man holding an unconscious Marin on his left arm and an harp on his right arm.

?: Excuse me… I am the Section Chief of Fairy Tale's 7th Branch, Kamiya "God" Kanade. I've come to welcome you, Otonashi San.

Yukari: Marin!?

Mizore: You… When did you…

Gabriel: And what the fuck is Fairy Tale? (AN: They don't know about it because the one who should have given the information died before he could reveal it.)

Kamiya: Our scouter Tsubaki is a good guy… He assessed you quite highly. "I can't even measure her latent power, she had the most outstanding talent of anyone I have met so far…". Join our group, I won't let you think badly of us, Otonashi San.

And about your question, Fairy Tale is an organization that is created from monsters to overthrow the human society… Hmm? Hoho, I can smell it… You are like me, aren't you?

He smiled at Gabriel, who didn't react at him.

Kamiya: You eat other people, right?

Gabriel: ...So?

Kamiya: I will offer a place for you, too… What's your answer, will you join us? I promise that we will treat you fairly.

Moka: Gabriel...

Gabriel: Are you an idiot? Why would you even believe that I will accept to be with a group of retards like you?

Kamiya: *Sigh* You are so rude…

Then he opened his mouth, revealing a glowing ring over his tongue, and let out a sonic scream, Gabriel let out his tail and used his stinger to pierce Kamiya, but due to Gabriel underestimating him, Kamiya was fast enough to dodge the attack, he then create wings from his back and grew bird legs.

Yukari: Tch… Be careful, that form… It's a Siren! Their singing voice can trick humans to their death.

Marin woke up and immediately glared at Kamiya, ignoring Gabriel's insect tail due to being blind from rage.

Marin: You are… The one who killed my husband in this inn four years ago.

Ruby: Marin!?

Tsukune: Ki...Killed her husband!? That guy!?

Moka: Don't do it, you can't stop him, Marin….

Marin rushed at the man in anger, but San tackled her in the ground.

Marin: San!? Let go, that guy… That guy-

San was crying… Making Marin come back to her senses, before she started to cry too.

Marin: ...Why? Why does someone like this guy exist. It looked like I was going to forget, but thanks to San I was able to know what it was like to have family again. It looked like I was going to be able to treat that all as a bad dream… So why does he show up again now…

Disappear, monster! Don't have anything to do with the human world ever agaaaain!!

San and everyone else flinched, while Kamiya laughed like a maniac.

Kamiya: Ahaha, did you hear that, San? That woman really doesn't know anything.

Marin: What are you laughing for!?

Kamiya: Hahaha, listen well, okay? San is also a monster, the same monster as I am! What "Family", what "Human", you were being tricked, you were just being manipulated, mo-ron!

Marin was shocked while San was crying even harder, then Marin picked up a stick and slowly murmured.

Marin: …..What… What are you… LIKE THAT'S TRUUUE!!!

Kamiya: ...Hmph, geez… Ignorance is so unsightly, you deserve to die.

He opened his mouth and started singing.

Gabriel: '...Should I stop it? Nah, I am curious about San's powers…'

Tsukune: Shit… Marin!

However, before the sonic waves reached Marin, there was a forcefield that dispersed the sound.

Kamiya: 'What the!? My son was…. Countered somehow!?'

Meanwhile, Marin slowly turned around.

Marin: S...Sun? You, just now… Sang?

San took out her notebook and showed her the words she wrote before.

San: "I always thought of Marin as like my true mother." ...I'm… Sorry…

Then she put an hand over her chest and closed her eyes while she started dancing and singing, completely countering Kamiya's song. Marin grabbed San's notebook and looked in despair at San.

Marin: No way!

San had a pair of white wings on her back… She was a Siren just like Kamiya.

Her and Kamiya's songs were destroying the windows of the hostel while everyone except Gabriel backed away.

Kamiya: Eating humans… You're a little mistaken. I didn't really killed him to eat him. It was to play. Since ancient times, Sirens have been killing humans to play. This is similar to instinct. Actually killing humans is quite refreshing. It helps to clear up the mind.

Tsukune: Why is it that people like you exist…? All San wants to do is live together with Marin… We are hoping for monsters and people to live together in harmony, so why are there people li-

Gabriel: Tsukune, he will not care about it.

Tsukune calmed down and didn't said anything else, meanwhile Kamiya grinned and pointed at Gabriel.

Kamiya: You, pinkie called you Gabriel, right? Do you agree that killing helps? Don't hide it, I could smell the aura of death coming from you, how many humans or monsters did you kill? 10? 20? Or 100?

Gabriel: ...Can you stop talking? You are annoying…

Kamiya: Tch, you continue to treat me like an enemy… Very well, then I'll kill you too.

He opened his mouth and took a deep breath, San did the same, but Gabriel suddenly pushed her back, surprising her.

Moka: Gabriel!

He was walking towards Kamiya, who started singing to Gabriel, the latter fully took the attack and froze on his spot, his body was trembling from trying to move, which he did after resisting a bit the song.

Kamiya: Impossible! No one can resist a Siren's song just like that!

Gabriel: You were right, it was nice eating monsters… But while you do it for fun, I do it for hunger… And guess what? I didn't eat anything since two days ago…

Kamiya got a small shiver on his back, but he didn't let that be a problem and started playing his harp.

The ground below everyone started to have a liquid form, and aquatic monsters came out like zombies, surrounding the group.
