Chapter 87 - Chapter 86 Fight

"Wait!" Serina stops him from throwing hands.

"....Why?"

"He's possessed remember?"

(Are you sure about that?)

"..Right, I forgot"

"Kyle, please--"

"No!"

Kyle swing his sword sharply to stop Serina from speaking any further.

Serina paused and gesture with her hands to calm him down.

"You know you hurt people right?"

"Huh?" Kyle turn to look at the hooded figure, his attention shifting to him.

"That's why we're here, to help you stop it"

"Stop what?"

"What's hurting people right now"

"And that is?"

"We thought you can help"

"...What's hurting people....right now...."

"Yes, something is hurting people right now, can you help?"

Serina look at Callum with confusion in her eyes, but remained quiet as she sees something is happening.

"It might be out there so we're gonna need your help"

"....."

Kyle look at Callum in silence, his weapon at the ready.

(What is happening? They need help, from me....)

"We're gonna look for it, with your help it should be quick"

"Right.....right...let's find it"

"Great, thanks"

Kyle put his weapon away and stood there.

"Since it's not here we think it might up on the upper floors waiting for us"

"Then I'll lead the way"

"Great, thanks"

Kyle then walk off without a second of hesitation and heads to the exit.

"....."

Serina watches Kyle walk away and turn to look at Callum.

"...It's just misdirection and stuff, helps keep him calm, for now"

Serina nodded, though she wasn't sure what sort of skill or magic he used, Callum somehow convinced Kyle to do something.

(He's better at convincing than me)

"Found it"

"Huh? What?"

Kyle look in the direction of a person leaning on a tree.

Aerina.

__________

(!!!!!!!)

Found it he thought.

Something collided from the back as he slowly raised his sword.

The two rolled onto the ground, Kyle getting back up first sword at the ready.

"Huh? Why are you stopping me?"

"That's our companion!"

"....She is?"

"Yes!"

".....Are you sure?"

"Yes!"

"You have an interesting companion"

"...Really? She's okay though"

"She's too beautiful to be considered normal"

".....Wait, what?"

(He thought she's a monster or target just because she's....better looking than normal?)

Callum looks at Aerina who is sleeping soundly.

Then look at Kyle.

".....Yeah, I don't get it"

"There's no way someone who looks this majestic while sleeping can be considered human"

".....Uh, she's human"

"Your eyes are clouded by her magic then"

(What is this guy saying?)

Callum began to think that the possessed Kyle might be having a severe case of possession right now.

(We might have to knock him out)

Right now that is the priority and nothing else should matter.

"Heyo, wassup?" a cheerful voice rang out.

(Oh, no)

______________

Dungeon mishap? 

Student rampaging?

Cool, hot, and nice-looking girl by his side?

How could Shin say no to such an adventure/companion mission with Snow?

The two dived into the dungeon without a problem breezing through the floors as quickly as the breeze itself, monsters cut to pieces and monsters frozen while the two ran past them, too bad they didn't have the time to collect the materials they dropped but that isn't the problem for the two of them.

Materials Drop

List of Materials from Defeated Monsters

Good systems come with good features that are convenient and hassle-free.

"Oh, hey Kyle," said Shin upon seeing who the culprit is.

"No, get away,y" said Callum.

"Hm? What? We're here to help"

"No, shoo!"

(Seriously? How rude)

Shin thought as he approached Kyle, prompting Callum to back off while doing a hand signal to Serina to move away as well.

(Oh, how smart, knowing how capable I am at handling this)

(Oh, we're so screwed now) 

"Shin....Morima"

"Oh, hey, you remember me"

"You!"

Callum ran behind the scene, picked up...Alaine? and ran off.

(Oh, wait, that's Aerina)

"?"

"Shin, be careful, that's the guy who caused a problem with me during the Robot Incident," said Snow beside him, her wand at the ready.

"Oh, did he now?"

Seeing what is about to happen, Serina comes forward.

"Please wait"

Callum appears from the bush and seems concerned judging by the direction of his gaze on Serina.

"What? We're just going to take him back up to the Academy, no biggie"

"We were convincing him just now until you arrived"

"Oh, you did?"

(No, don't say that!) - Callum

"You....did?" said Kyle.

"Yes, we were going to get you help"

Callum gestured with his hands not to speak further but Serina who has her attention on Kyle continued speaking.

(Nonono)

"Kyle, we're here to save you"

"Save....me?"

"Yes, we--"

"Save me?!?!?!?!"

Mana burst forth from his body violently pushing the hair on everyone head back.

"Sorry, but we're going to take care of this now" said Shin moving forward.

"Wait, I'm sure we can---"

"Rargh!"

A powerful burst of wind was created upon the impact of the two' weapon.

"Yeah, I don't think so" said Shin, gently pushing Serina out of the way while pulling his sword out of the scabbard.

"We'll make sure not to harm him too much," said Snow, beckoning Serina to move out of the way as well.

"....", Serina reluctantly distances herself from the tree and walks away.

(Great, time for the next part)

Shin gets ready, Kyle did the same.

"...." Snow prepares the spells and an army of snowmen appears this time with armor made of ice.

"....." Callum moves quietly towards Serina's location with Aerina in his arms.
