Chapter 25 - Chapter 25: our mysterious savior.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOO" Everyone was scared and his sister shouted, wanting to save me, but was pulled back by her friends; with everyone one in anticipation and fear, but suddenly out of nowhere. A man about 18 years old, with a tatter cloth and bandages wrapped on his right arm; had grabbed the yoma's wrist and redirecting it towards the clouds… while stopping the attack in the process, as the yoma attack had exploded, clearing the clouds and to everyone's amazement, seeing that a mysterious person had come and immediately deflected the attack of the yoma leaving the yoma amazed,

"It seems that I had forgotten to get rid of the entire pest." The strange individual had started to remove his bandages releasing so many auras that it was making the air think enough that even a sword can't cut through it, as he revived his arm having multiple ring on his fingers, each with different colors… each with different type of mana flowing through them; as the wind around him had started to pick up in speed and had started to blow violently… just who is this.

"COME."

--------------------------

Indra p.o.v:

'w-who is this stranger... his mana, is just insane! It even makes sir ray's mana seem… unnoticeable… amazing.' I was amazed and shocked by this sudden occurrence as I was just staring at the two power houses in front of me, whereby the yoma had towered over the stranger with about 4 feet, but then my attention was towards the rings on the stranger's right hand…. Might he be the cause of the monstrous like aura that had put the council on the edge?

"I suggest you go with your team mate, if not you may die when I increase my mana any further." The stranger informed me as I just ran towards my sister and the rest of the team, as I had sited the now unconscious sir ray; that seems drained and lifeless. After being defeated and drained by the yoma.

"h-how would you have risk yourself like t-that!" my big sister had exclaimed in a very worried tone as she had hugged me, while sobbing on my shoulder as I haven't seen her like this…. I must have really hurt her, by putting myself in ruk's place.

"I'm sorry big sis… I never kne- ouch! Hey what was that for!" I was hit on the head by my sis who was now facing the other way while pouting and had her two eyes closed.

"You deserve it, and next time if this happens again then you're dead. GET THAT!" she pointed her finger at me with a very scaring face, as I just nodded my head in a very fast motion and with a face palm.

"Y-Y-YES M-MA!" I gave her a salute why nodding very vigorously as it felt like as if my neck was going to fly off.

'Man-_-'sometimes she acts like a warlord … very dangerous one sometimes…. Okay most of the time, can't still forget about… 'The incident' stills gives me nightmares.' I thought as I just quickly turned my head away, not wanting to face anymore problems, but I then noticed something odd about the stranger, as he was just standing in front of the yoma with no fear in his eyes …. In fact he was smiling as if he was getting excited though not too much. Since that it was more like a smirk.

"YOU DARE INTERRUPTED ME YOU FOOL... THEN YOU SHALL FACE MY POWE-"

"Man you really like talking too much, do you? Hahahaha." The stranger had started too laughed, with a very dark tone that sends shivers into my spine, as even the laughter had grabbed my sister's attention; who was beating the living day lights out of ruk, for not saving me in time, though it was my fault, but… hate to be him right now.

" YOU ARE REALLY TESTING MY PATIENT'S YOU MANURE! THOUGH, IT SEEMS THAT YOU WILL MAKE A MORE SUITABLE FETERLIZIER FOR MY GROWT-." The yoma was interrupted by the stranger; who was just staring at the beast with a stoic and bored expression, and was apparently sticking his finger in his ear, while not paying attention to the yoma; who was now too enraged by his adamant attitude.

"yeah… before I kill you, can you like stop using farming terms on me… it kind of reminds me of work and my uncle apparently." He said as the monster was already flaring his monstrous aura which didn't even make the man flinch even once.

"WHY YOU!" the yoma had roared at him as he brought his arm up to the sky and was starting to increase in size at a very quick rate.

"Watch ou-."

Booooooom!

The yoma had slammed his fist on the individual with enough force to crack the ground in half and was able to create a very powerful shockwave that had push us back along with some other trees and rumbles.

" everyone! Hold on!" I had ruk shout out as he held on to a branch and had summoned his chronicle in a nick of time.

"What did you think!" my sister had plunged her sword into the ground, so that to avoid herself from getting blown away by the shockwave. As many others had attached themselves to my sister; also trying not to get blown away too.

"Okay. Space art: dorm!" ruk casted his spell, as a dark like transparent dorm had cover us; protecting us from the magnitude of the yoma's attack, but though it seems that ruk was also trying to maintain it from shattering; due to the force of the attack. Now everyone was safe from the shockwave and was now looking through the dorm towards the aftermath of the yoma's attack, as everything had settled down.

"Oh my god…. T-this is very devastating." I heard one of my guild mate say, as he was shock by the view in front of him. As the once filled with vegetation surrounding… was now a waste land. Just one punch, was able to cause this much damage.

"How would somebody ever survive this? Even the s-class are not that strong to this level. in fact, it would have taken an entire guild to defeat it." I heard my sister say. As she walked to the dome and had placed her hands on it, why looking down in solemn, about why the council had sent them on this mission.

"Damn it!" I heard ruk punch the ground as a small crate was created in the process. He glared at the ground with a pissed of expression on his face.

"i-is something wrong ruk?" I asked with a concerned voice on why his sudden action, as this had confused the rest of us.

"Those bastards… they knew!" he continued to lament on something that we still didn't understand… what was going on.

"Just spill it already ruk!" my sister shouted at him to talk, as she made her way towards him now about an arm length to him.

"don't you see Tamaki they just sent us here to be used as their toys!" he responded with rage in his voice, as my big sis had just gasped and covered her mouth with her hands and wide eyes, with tears threatening to fall.

"Ruk… sis what does he mean." I walked over to my sis as she just hugged me while sobbing on my shoulder. Ruk on the other hand had now wore a stoic expression on his face, as he just stared at a shadowy figure; which was just outside the barrier, as it just flicked it away with easy to revive the Stranger; who now had so blood on the right side of his face and had a stoic expression.

"He means that you were all used as canon folds."......… what, those bastards.

Now everyone was even more shocked to see that he had survived the yoma's powerful attack and had come out unscathed. As now we were able to see him more clearly, ignoring the blood on his face, as he has a white silver hair, with golden color iris and a slightly tanned skin, that really complement's his eyes and seems to be wearing a rugged and tattered cloth and had bandages covering his right arm. But then we all heard a roar coming from the back of him, as we were all getting ready to fight and was already in a combat stance.

"throw everything you got at it!" ruk shouted at us to get ready to throw everything we got at it with full force. Now the yoma was already at the front of the man; who seem not to focus on it at all.

"YOU ARE STARTING TO BE A BIG NUISANCE!" the yoma had started to charge up a massive sphere of mana within its two hand, as he launched at the man who just turn his head towards the yoma and had vanished without a trace.

CRACK!

And like that… the head of the yoma was twisted into a 540 degree turn. As the man was now looking at the yoma with an expressionless stare, but then the yoma had just fall down directly to the ground and everywhere was silent, as only the sound of the wind could be heard and the most shocking thing that just happened was that… the stranger had never been injured or killed for that matter, but was still able to take down the yoma with unparalleled strength… only.

'............… w-what…..' my mind was setback by this display of power as the same thing can be said about my sister, ruk and the rest of the guild mate; who just witnessed it to.

"Shit…" ruk said as he was still trying to understand what just happened.

"Just to make sure you never come back… FINAL BREATH" he casted and like that the yoma's body was instantly turned into dust.........….

"….."

"….."

"….."

"I think we just found the person behind the monstrous mana." Tamaki said with a face palm.

"You think." A guild member had responded with a sarcastic voice.

" I will like to thank you for saving us sir, though we will like to ask you some few questions. As we were sent by the guild council to come and investigate this site for the thing or being responsible for the sudden burst of mana… and it seems that we have found our answer, and request that you cooperate with us." Ruk had walked towards him: who seems to be focusing at a particular area while glaring at it… strange.

"Hmmm, it will be wise to do so… but unless you help me in achieving my objectives…. Do you have a Deal?" The stranger had faced him as stretched out his hand towards ruk for them to shake in agreement.

"....... Fine, you have yourself a deal." Ruk shake his hand; agreeing to the terms. But was still feeling that he was not to be trusted but sill was it fair. Since he did safe us from the yoma

"okay... now what do you want to hear?" the stranger asked ruk and was waiting for a response until he asked the perfect question, he could think of.

"What type of being… are you?" ruk asked in a very curious tone, as even I am waiting in anticipation, as the man had removed the hood that covered some of his hair and ears, to show an even more shocking revelation.

"Y-y-you're a-a" I was too shocked to even respond, after seeing one of the most shocking…. Review in my life.

"Yes… I am a human."

"....WHAT!" all of us shouted at the same time.
