Chapter 3 - Chapter 3- A Foe or a Friend?

"Oops.. Looks like I overdid it...Sorry Mr. Ogre but we don't have enough time for chitchats(laughs*), At the end... monsters are monsters..they kill...because they want to.. they kill because..that's their nature..... Anyways, Kyva is still fainted..I need to go out of this ruin and go to the school medic right now"

Xinon picked up Kyva and starts to exit the ruin, after Xinon left the place where he defeated the Class-A monster....

"they kill because they want to?....they kill...because..that's their nature?!...b-but.... Im not like that!..."

A girl toned voice echoes at the ruin but Xinon is too far away to hear it...

Meanwhile on the far away hidden land called "Dister"....

"My lord.. I would like to inform you that Experiment 0.1 has been defeated..I know that our experiments for upgrading the A-Classes are much weaker compare to the true A-Class ones..Our experiments can barely talk..but....still our experiments can be stronger than three B-Classes....but a guy with a tremendous strength easily manage to defeat it single handedly..."

"hmm.. What is the name of that guy you're talking about and what is his attribute."

"Sorry my lord.. But his tail attribute is still unknown.. But his name is "Xinon Himaki" from the Dranora Academy.."

"Xinon... Himaki huh?.... This is getting interesting(smirks*)"

"My lord, I have another report..Experiment 0 break freed at the examination room..Our troops are finding her now.."

"Let her escape..let's see how worthless she is...after all...She is a failed experiment.."

Eventually Xinon arrived at the school medic and put Kyva in one of the rooms available...,

2 hours have past and Kyva finally gain consciousness.

"ahhh....uh...wh-...where am I?.. ouch ouch ouch my head...it hurts, wait..I remember that I fainted at the ruin..I wonder where is Xinon right now...Hmm..I think I'll check the news-"

Xinon saw that Kyva is Already awake and at the moment where Kyva will about to open the Tv..Xinon grabs Kyva's hand.

"eh?!...My..H-Hand..?"

"Kyva.. You are still exhausted from the ruin exploration, you used up to much energy.. I suggest that you should go back to bed immediately(smiles*)"

"HAAAAAHH???!!!! WHA-WHAT ARE YOU DOING H-HERE!!,....And uhm....don't touch my h-hand all of the sudden.....(But im not telling that I don't want it..)(whispers*)"

"Oh..Sorry.., but Im just worried about you..Now be a behave girl and go back to bed(smiles*)"

Kyva instantly laid on her bed and ask something to Xinon.

"Uhm..Xinon..Do you think that I avenge Kaye's death?....I never knew that...making a friend..is so much happy...but losing a friend is(sobs*)...so h-heartbreaking..."

"Calm down now...Kyva...Im sure that Kaye is very proud of you....but right now..you really need to get a sleep..goodnight..Kyva(smiles*)"

"But Im not sleepy-(yawns*)....fine...Good...night Xinon..."

Kyva falls asleep and Xinon sleeps at the chair beside Kyva...

The sun rise starts to shine..

"Ahhh..oh..its already morning..hmm?..I wonder where is Xinon right now.."

Someone knocks the door and Kyva opened it right away.

"Oh..Xinon..h-hi..Good Morning.."

"Good Morning Kyva, here, I brought you breakfast, eat up because I will take you somewhere(smiles*)"

"take me .....s-s..SOMEWHERE???!!!"

"Yes Kyva, lets eat first, we cannot go to travel if we have a empty stomach right?"

"r-right..."

Xinon and Kyva finished their breakfast and after that Kyva asked Xinon.

"Xinon...Uhm...Can I know where are we going?...Im a bit curious about it.."

"Yes, sure, I asked Teacher Dereda about how can I figure out what is my tail attribute fast, then she answered that there is someone who can tell me what is my Tail attribute is....but the problem is that it is far away from the school and Teacher Dereda said that I can see the witch that can tell attributes at the top of the mountain,.... so I am planning to go there with you(smiles*)"

"Mountain?...n-no...problem..Im happy that I can accompany you.."

"Then lets go, shall we?"

"yes Xinon(smiles*)"

Xinon opened the door to go out to Kyva's room but after he opened it...A lot of students are already outside Kyva's room and students starts to ask and praise Kyva.

(random student)

"Kyva!! You're so strong!!! How did you do that!!!"

Kyva has no clue on what is the student talking about and she replied..

"Eh? What did I do?"

(random student)

"Stop being humble!! We know that you are the one who defeated the Class-A monster at the Ruin!!, The researches of the Ruin said that there is a monster that is different from the others..and its huge..but they said that when they come there its already dead and its head has a big hole on it..Wow!!! Kyva!!! We don't know that you are that powerful!!!"

"EHHHH?!!!!! ME??!!!! No no no!!! You got it all wrong!!!, I don't have any ideas about that!!, and what did you just say?!! A Class-A Monster?!!! If I see one of those I will never gonna go close to that monster!!"

(random students)

"WHAT?!!,..IF THAT'S NOT YOU.... THEN WHO DID THAT?!!

"To be honest with you guys..I don't know who really is the one who killed that monster..But Im sure that he or she is a very powerful combat tail holder.."

(random student)

"Then we got it all wrong huh?..This is embarrassing...okay Kyva see you later!! Sorry for our intrusion!!"

After that...the students go to their own rooms

and Kyva asked Xinon.

"Hey...Xinon..you heard that?, they said that there is a Class-A monster that has been defeated in the Ruin..Have you seen it?"

Xinon knew that it is much better if Kyva did not know what happened at the ruin.

"Erm...sorry Kyva but after you fainted, all I did is to carry you on my back and go outside the ruin.."

"ohh....is that so?....but Im thankful that you are there to assist m-me...and Im thankful too that we haven't encounter that monster..If that happens...Im not sure what awaits for us..."

"You're welcome Kyva(smiles*), Come on, we should get going now, we have a long way to go to that mountain called Mount. Drike"

"I agree Xinon, Let's go(smiles*)"

After Xinon and Kyva packed their things, they starts to go out of their school to seek for the witch who can tell ones tail attribute quickly...

Meanwhile at the plains...

"Xinon...I think that we should get a rest for now...It is already afternoon..lets eat for now okay?"

"Okay Kyva, but I have a much better plan, let's stop to my house..We are almost there and my house is just right there, We can eat at my house and continue our travel(smiles*)"

(Kyva's Mind)

(H-HOUSE????!!! IM...GONNA..G-GO..TO....XINON'S H-HOUSE?!!! B-BUT IM NOT READY YET!!..If we stop there to eat...I think we will last 2 hours...but....b-but....THERE IS SO MANY THINGS THAT CAN HAPPEN IN 2 HOURS!!!

Okay...breath..Kyva..breath....WHY AM I THINKING ALL OF THIS!!!, THIS IS NONSENSE!!!!)

"Uhm..Kyva?, are you alright?, are you thinking about something?"

"HMM? NO..NO...DEFINITELY NOT THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING(laughs uncomfortably*)"

"Hmm..Okay..then let's go to my house(smiles*)"

As they walked towards the end of the plains..Kyva sees a big old house with a big tree beside it"

"Kyva we are now here,...welcome to my house.. as you can see...that big tree over there is Kichi, I mentioned about her at the ruin right?"

"Yes..yes..that tree...its bigger that I expected..also your house..it is so big..are you living in there just by yourself?"

"Yes Kyva..Im all alone at this house so Kichi is only the one I can talk too(laughs*), let's go Kyva I'll give you a quick trip(smiles*)"

"Okay...Xinon..."

As Kyva follows Xinon, She saw a picture of him in a frame and someone was in there with Xinon, but the picture is slightly faded to recognize.

"Xinon?...can I know who is this guy beside you at this picture?"

"That is my Grandfather..he passed away when Im only eight years old..He is the one who taught me to fight with my raw strength and reflexes..until now..Im using the way he taught me how to fight because I still don't know what is my tail attribute..The truth is..he is not my real Grandfather..he saved me from getting killed when I was little..I have a big respect for him..yes...that is my Grandfather(smiles*)"

"Oh now I understand..he is surely amazing...so this house is originally your grandfather's house?"

"Yes it is..and Im proud to call this house my home..(smiles*)"

Kyva and Xinon is having their peaceful conversation but someone suddenly opens the door by slamming it forcefully.

"HyaHHHH!!(pants*) YOU!! Boy!!(pants*)What is your name!!"

Said by a single horned humanoid girl and seems frustrated.

"Eh? You slammed the door and now you're asking my name?..fine...Im Xinon Himaki....wait...are you a-"

"Mwehehehehe yes!!! Greetings!! Im Siatra and I...am ..a Monster!!"
