Chapter 31 - Chapter 30- rest

A few moments after getting away from the arch demon, Yuji and Yukina made their way to the place where Yuji left Elizabeth's body.

"Is this the place?" Yukina asked.

"Yeah," Yuji replied, as they both crossed the fence and went inside the house, "She should be inside,".

"Good thing this was far away, It's at the exact opposite direction of where I was luring the arch demon too," Yukina said.

Yuji nodded as he went inside the room where he left Elizabeth's body.

They walked inside silently and stopped in front of a certain closet.

"So she's in there..." Yukina said, "After we take her, we need to go further and find a place to rest,".

Yuji opened the closet for a short moment and quickly closed it back, after seeing Elizabeth.

Yuji grabbed a blanket sheet from the bed nearby and used it as a lock by tying it through bot handles of the closet.

"What are you doing?" Yukina said.

"You said we need a place to rest," Yuji replied, "this place could do,".

"Huh? well... this place does seem already convenient," Yukina said.

"Isn't it?" Yuji said agreeing with Yukina, "but I think there's somewhere more better than here..." he said as he walked out the room.

"Huh? but what you said was..." Yukina replied following Yuji.

"Hey..."

"Here it is! I knew I wasn't seeing things..." Yuji said looking at the floor by the corner beside a wall.

"Is that!?" Yukina said as she stoped beside Yuji looking at the what seems to be a door leading to the bottom of the house.

"It's a bunker," Yuji said as he kneeled down and opened the door.

"It's stairs..." Yukina said, looking at the stairs leading to complete darknes.

Yuji went down the stairs being careful.

"Wait!" Yukina said as Yuji was about to go further down.

"Here... we don't know what's down there yet..." Yukina said as she took a small flashlight from her mechanical bag behind her and handed it to Yuji.

"Thanks..." Yuji said, "by the way... isn't that thing behind you looked like a wing just a few moments ago? I didn't notice..."

"Oh this?" Yukina replied, "It's my mechanical bag, it's a specialized weapon... or you could say tool, made just for me,".

"Oh, for you to have that kind of treatment, you must be pretty special..." Yuji said.

"It's not much, most of us at the special forces gets personal specialized weapons to fit with our ability,"

"Special forces..."

"We can talk more later, just go down there already and check if it's safe so we can rest," Yukina said.

"Your right..."

And so Yuji went down the darkness inside the bunker with a flashlight on his right hand.

"It's really dark..." Yuji said as he looked around cautiously.

"Huh? is this..." Yuji said as he approached something that seemed like a switch.

The lights flickered for a short moment, but right after, the lights filled the whole basement.

"Oooh..." Yukina  said in amusement, "this place seem safe, and it also has electricity, hope it won't cut off soon,".

"Yeah..." Yuji said as he observed the area, " This place is spacy, and look!".

Yuji approached the corner of the room where there is a single shelf containing some sort of rags or cloth.

Yuji grabs the rolled object and stretched it open, "Its... a mat,".

"And it's pretty big," Yukina said as he approached Yuji.

"With this there won't be any problem sleeping on the floor..."  Yuji said, "by the way, how long are we going to stay here?" he said, facing Yukina.

"Hmmmm..." Yukina crossed her arms and looked at the side as she thinks, "I think... we should spend the night here, that should be long enough to see if glutton left the area..."

"I see... wait who?" Yuji said.

"Oh, Glutton!" Yukina said as she recalled, " I've been calling It that thing so you won't get confused, but apperantly that thing has a name,".

"Glutton..."

"Yes, It's arch demon, code name 005, Glutton," Yukina said as she sat down and slouched beside a wall, "and it's character is also explained by it's name..."

"Glutton... I guess I could already tell," Yuji said.

"Great, that means I don't have to explain much... there are 7 known arch demons in our continent, but you could learn about them yourself once were done here..." As Yukina was about to relax she suddenly recalled something.

"Oh yeah! speaking of names, we haven't introduced ourselves haven't we?" she said.

Yuji, who was about to go deep in a thought suddenly replied, "Oh... Oh yeah, you've been so easy to get along with I almost forgot, hehe,".

"Easy to get along with... me?" Yukina replied as if she was confused.

"huh?" Yuji went silent, being confused by her reaction, "Is she not aware herself?" he thought.

Yukina looked away, "Now that I think about it... I don't always get along with others as much as him... isn't he the sociable one?" she thought.

"Anyways, my name is Yukina Reiz," she said as she faces back at Yuji.

"Yeah... her name doesn't ring a bell," Yuji thought, "My name is..."

"Your Yuji... right?" Yukina said interrupting Yuji.

"Uh... yeah, Yuji Amanda, how did you know..." Yuji said in shock.

"Phew... so you are him..." Yukina said in relief, "I had a feeling you'd be him..."

"What do you mean?" Yuji said as his voice tensed up.

"Huh? umm... you see, earlier there was this blonde chick, trying to get back here when everyone was preparing to evacuate the city..."

"Erina..."

"Yes, that's her name!" Yukina replied, "everyone tried to stop her, but she kept resisting, and also, she was saying your name while she's at it,".

"And so, I just thought that this Yuji person, must be really important to her if she wants to go back to help him that badly," Yukina added, "I knew some background on her profile for reasons, that's why I knew what kind of person she might be right away,".

She pulled her knees together and wrapped her arms around it then buried her face, "I... was really exited to meet her..." she said, looking disappointed.

"Then I thought," Yukina said, setting her back straight, "If she is the kind of person I think she is, then this person important to her must be an awesome person too... that's what I thought, that's why... I kinda assumed you were him right away, hehe".

"So you think I'm awesome?" Yuji said, pointing himself with a blank face.

"Don't go making assumptions," Yukina said awkwardly, "I only thought that someone who could survive a situation like you had, would definitely be someone who Erina will respect,".

Yuji let out a small laugh, "I see... but the thing is, I'm not really that amazing, I'm not even strong..."

"Being modest, aren't we..." Yukina said.

"No, I'm really not"

"Is that so... then can I even trust you to watch while I rest?" Yukina said in a sarcastic tone.

"of course, that's just..."

"Then guard for me while I sleep," Yukina said pulling the long mat from Yuji.

She repeatedly slapped the mat with her hands, as dust came out from it.

Yukina then shook off the left dust at the mat then laid it down on the floor, "that should do it," she said enthusiasticly, as her face suddenly changed from a regular expression to a tired expression.

"Ok..." Yuji said, as he sees Yukina going straight to sleep.

"Well... she did had a long day, and she probably had a lot to deal with before and after this too..." Yuji thought.

"I still have so many questions, but for now... I should let her rest..."

"She faced that arch demon, she saved me and had to handle surviving such a situation... she has been through a lot..."

"And now that I think about it..."

"Didn't I just experience nearly the same thing!?? or even worse!?".

"Hey..." Suddenly Yukina talked as she was facing the wall at the corner, "we're taking turns, three hours of sleep should be enough for me... wake me up after...".

"O...ok..."

Yuji sat down in silence as he rest while being cautious of the outside.
