When Jin heard about the appearance of the high-ranked metaphysical what was inside his mind was helplessness. He knew that he along with his group would be unable to defeat this metaphysical and he thought to leave everything to the adult who was working at the White Knight Order.
Such a thought was normal or rather, no one would blame him since the appearance of a high-ranked metaphysical was something that they couldn't defeat.
The only one who could defeat it was the group of Rank A Saviors or a single Rank S Savior, however, in small countries such as Japan, the number of Rank A Saviors was only so much and there was only one Rank S Savior, and they couldn't be sent immediately so one thing for sure, there would be a lot of victims that were hurt or died.
Even though everyone on the Striker was unwilling, there was nothing that they could do. They could only stay on the Akane Academy and stared at the monitor, hoping that someone could solve this situation as soon as possible.
When everyone from the Striker gathered together, Kanzaki quickly noticed that Haru and Jeanne weren't there so she quickly asked Jin to call them to check, telling them to come to the academy as soon as possible.
However, even without Kanzaki's reminder, Jin had already called out Haru, asking him to come to the academy, and Sophia also did the same by calling Jeanne.
Both Jin and Sophia then sighed in relief when they learned that Haru and Jeanne were at the church together and they knew that they should be alright from the metaphysical's attack.
The relationship between Sophia and Jeanne was quite good since both of them were foreigners and they were also devout believers so it was normal when they became so close to each other.
However, it wasn't the time to explain about that, Jin and Sophia quickly told both of them to go back to the academy to stay together both Haru and Jeanne only answered with a perfunctory answer.
Jin and Sophia didn't think too much, but they also felt something bad might happen and it seemed that they were right, especially when Jin received a call from Shizuno and this time, he was startled when he learned that Shizuno and Satsuki were on the shopping mall where the high-ranked metaphysical appeared.
Jin gritted his teeth and told Shizuno that the help would come soon, even though he didn't think that the Saviors from the headquarters of the White Knight Order would come sooner, however, there was nothing that he could do.
No one was in a pleasant mood at that moment, realizing how weak they were, and they could only stay in school so they wouldn't be hurt because of the metaphysical, but then everyone was dumbfounded when by chance the camera caught the appearance of both Haru and Jeanne that were flying toward the direction of the shopping mall.
"This?!"
Jin didn't expect that Haru and Jeanne would break his order, coming toward the shopping mall to help both Satsuki and Shizuno, but at the same time, he also felt ashamed with the fact that he was standing in a safe place where a lot of people were in a dangerous situation.
Jin clenched his hand hard, but then he heard that Mari would go toward the shopping mall and without hesitation, he decided to come along with her.
Both of them were going by car toward the shopping mall, but when they arrived.
*BOOOOOM!!*
The earth was trembling slightly and they were dumbfounded when they saw the cause of this earthquake.
"......."
Jin and Mari opened their eyes and mouth wide open, when they saw half of the head of the Nine-Headed Hydra metaphysical were blasted into a piece of flesh, but then their expression turned serious again when they saw how it regenerated all of its heads easily, however...
"ROAARRRRRR!!!!"
The Nine-Headed Hydra metaphysical was trapped by something and then...
*Splash!*
"........"
It died.
The Nine-Headed Hydra metaphysical that was feared by a lot of people just died like that without any resistance.
Jin and Mari were a bit sluggish when they saw what was happening, but after they had recovered, they quickly moved toward the location of the battle. In their mind, they thought that Haru had used forbidden technique and thought that Haru was in weak condition, but when they arrived..
"You two are late," Haru said while looking at Jin and Mari.
"........"
Jin and Mari saw Shizuno, Satsuki, Jeanne, and Haru were there and the four of them were unscathed which made them relieved, but when they saw the piece of metaphysical flesh that was floating in the air, they weren't sure what to say for a moment...
---
From the beginning to the end, Haru had never expected someone would come so fast to help Shizuno and Satsuki. He knew very well that no one wanted to die and he knew the only person that was capable of defeating the Nine-Headed Hydra metaphysical except him, Jeanne, and Andou in this country.
Haru thought for a while and took out his phone to call Andou to tell him that he had defeated the Nine-Headed Hydra.
"Kasugano-kun, did you defeat this metaphysical alone?" Jin asked with a trembling voice.
When Haru heard this question, he was wondering whether he should say that he defeated the metaphysical alone, but if he said that, he would ignore the feeling of Shizuno and Satsuki who were fighting against the metaphysical before.
Mari was in silence and also wanted to hear Haru's answer.
Jeanne didn't say anything since she believed in Haru, however, Satsuki wanted to jump out to show off that Haru had defeated the metaphysical alone, but Shizuno seemed to notice that and quickly stopped Satsuki by holding her mouth.
Even though Shizuno knew that Haru wanted to become S Rank Savior, she didn't really want him to become one since she knew once it happened, then he would lose his freedom.
Haru thought for a while and put down his phone, then said, "I am not alone, if Satsuki and Shizuno didn't stop this thing before then the consequences might be unimaginable and if Jeanne isn't beside me, then I might not be able to come so soon." He felt the feeling of Satsuki and Shizuno were more important so he said that answer and even if he made such an answer, he believed that someone who was thirsty of authority and power would jump out like a clown, telling him that they would help him to become S Rank Savior.
Haru had always loved to use such people since he also used that kind of people before during his quest on the Black Bullet.
Jin seemed to be disbelief since he knew very well about the power of Satsuki and Shizuno were impossible for both of them to defeat this metaphysical, but Mari quickly stopped him and said, "Then I will handle the rest, Kasugano-kun, all of you should go back and rest, I am sure that you're all tired."
Mari knew that even though Haru had said that the one who defeated the metaphysical was the four of them, she was sure that someone would know that the one who had defeated it was him and she was sure that the situation would be more troublesome from now on.
Mari thought for a while and felt that it was better to move directly to Haru's house later.
