Later, Sky is having a phone call with Maria…
"Are you mad?" said Sky.
"I was mad for a bit, but after meeting this sweet little handsome Seito-kun, I am so blessed! Now if you don't mind, I'm gonna play with my dear Sei-chan…come on Sei-chan.. (in the background: "No!!! Help me…")….*click*…"
"Ugh… he is mad… so mad…" said Sky
"I guess I will buy some roses for him later…" said Chris.
"Chris, nice idea…"
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Later, Sky's house living room.
"I see that you have been on your PC for the whole night, never saw you this hardworking before, anything interesting?" Chris asked.
"Yes, this is the quest from Enma. Didn't he tell you anything?" said Sky.
"No..."
Chapter 26 – Quest from the After World!
Days before… Sky and Maria are walking at some dim and deserted area, the surrounding is covered with a thin layer of mist, some weird and deadly sound can be heard occasionally…
"Haven't been here for years, still as sorrow as usual." said Sky.
"Well, this is the afterworld alright, but I do senses some unusual atmosphere if compare with that day…" said Maria.
"What do you mean? Blaze." said Sky.
"Stop calling me with my codename. I don't know, just some weird presence." said Maria.
"Weird presence huh? I sensed that too…Let's get to Enma's place fast, this place is filled with a lot of dark presence." said Sky
"Okay." said Maria.
The Enma's palace is located in the middle of that death town which is not far from Sky and Maria's location. As they moved on by following the guide which is formed by some weird colored 'fireflies', out of nowhere, two figures appeared and blocked their way. It two identical-looking guys, one wears white kimono and haori another wear black light armor.
"Are they the new Mujous?" Sky asked.
"Probably, although I haven't seen them that day." said Maria.
"They don't look so friendly though." said Sky.
"You two there, where do you think you are going?" said the Black Mujou.
"You guys must be the Mujou's brothers right?" Sky asked.
"Yes we are." Said the White.
"We have got some invitation from Enma-sama, so we will be heading to his palace, would you open up a way for us?" said Sky.
The Mujous look at each other for a few seconds.
"We never heard that from our lord." Said White.
"And you two looks suspicious!" said Black Mujuo while flashing out his colossal sword.
"Yes, they indeed look suspicious, perhaps they are actually the sinners that just escape from the hell, we cannot let these two get near to Enma-sama ." said White with his whip.
"Sky, they don't seem like letting us pass through just like this, I guess we will have to break through them by force."
"No, Blaze, we ca… Blaze!!"
Without hearing advice from Sky, Maria covered his body with flame and charged straight to the Mujuos, while the Mujuos had well prepared with their battle form. As they are about to reach each other, the attacks been blocked by a strong magic, it's Sky, he stopped the attacks from both sides with just his right hand, although his hand bleeds because of the impact. The Mujuos flinched back as they feel that shocking huge amount of magic in one single handed block.
"Blaze, didn't I ever told you not to be so aggressive? No matter how dumbxxs they are, they are still Enma's underling!" said Sky.
"..Tsk…"
On the other side, the Mujuos seems like trying to launch a powerful attack…
"Stop it…You two…" A soft and weak voice coming from another direction, the Mujuos are shocked when they heard that voice, they quickly kneel down. Realizing who is coming, Sky and Maria kneel down as well…
A black-haired man wearing a black robe with silver lining is slowly walking toward them accompanied by a gentleman with glasses. That's Enma, he has a pair of dark and blank looking eyes, you can see the heavy eye bags under his eyes, giving you a flail, weak and tired look.
"So, Chris asked you two to come for his stead right? Come with me…" Then, they followed Enma into a black mist…
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Present, Sky and Chris are in the living room, examining the list given by Enma by comparing it with population distribution…
"Why do I feel so familiar with this formation…Wait a second…" Chris opened another file using his own laptop…
"Ah! It is the same!"
"Chris?"
Chris looks at Sky with a disturbed look.
