"Sorry, but it's time to end this" Alya kisses Mestra on the forehead, Love Series: Forehead Kiss, this causes a massive explosion to erupt, causing most of the bookshelves in the area to be consumed by the blast, Metsuma, unable to react in time, gets consumed as well.
Alya stands victorious over Mestra's body as she is seen to be knocked out, smoking but with no injuries or damage. Alya turns to Metsuma and walks towards him, Metsuma is completely fine and uninjured, she rubs him on the head, you're okay now, she can't hurt you. "Wow, thank you, Ms. Alya," she says with gratitude towards her efforts in saving him from his killer, "Huh, Alya, Oh right my bad that's not actually my name, I got caught up in the moment, my actual name is Mahiro Kiana, sorry," she says a bit embarrassed from her miswording. Metsuma gets up and is lifted by Mahiro to his feet.
"So, what exactly was that, how did you do that?" Metsuma says looking up at Mahiro, curious at her strength, "Oh, that is what I call the Love Series, it's a special kind of combat I made specifically for my opponents" she says looking down at him, a presence very dominating, and assertive, Metsuma feels even smaller than her already is in her presence. "Wow that's cool, but how come it didn't damage me or her, the attacks looked quite powerful but only the surroundings were damaged," he asked her, wondering how her skill worked, "It's an attack filled with Love, I can choose whether or not it harms them or not and I chose for it to not be painful" she responds. She pats Metsuma again and this time he once again feels the same feeling of calmness and safety, "W-what is this?" he says clearly completely relaxed and carefree, "It's my second blessing of course, Mother's Authority, it will keep you calm as long as you're in my presence, sometimes I use it to get opponents to put their guard down" she says adding extra information just because she felt like it, "that cool, thank you once again but I really need to get going" Metsuma says remembering his mission to get the section 8, "Sure, bye darling" she says to Metsuma, watching him leave.
She looks at Mestra, picks her up, and runs out of the library extremely fast, able to reach the exit door in 0.005 seconds from where she is, traveling a distance of 10,000 kilometers on foot, she walks out the door and goes to the police station.
Metsuma finally reaches section 8 and sees little-to-know people around, he walks up to someone and asks, "Excuse me, do you know where I can find the section for Shinigami masters?" the girl responds and tells him that it is just in that direction, pointing in front of her past Metsuma, he thanks the girl before leaving to the section. After some walking and checking on the books, he manages to find the books about Shinigami masters and starts reading, "Whoa, it seems that Shinigami masters were quite powerful and it's perfect since no mana is required", he thinks to himself. He manages to find the information that he was looking for, "H-here it is, so to become a Shinigami master, I must defeat a Shinigami on my own first, with my own skills" he reads this but his face soon becomes filled with discontent, "Will I really be able to beat a Shinigami?" he thinks to himself, knowing his own weakness and doubting his capabilities, "No, I definitely should be able to, they were able to tame them before mana was able to be harnessed so I definitely have to potential to, I just need to do it strategically" he thinks about what he could do to be able to defeat a Shinigami but stops thinking about that as he first needs to actually look at Shinigami and find one that's easy to tame so he can build an arsenal.
The perspective switches to Accelerant as he watches Bal & Hyi go back and forth as they are now moving extremely fast that he can barely keep up with them during that time he had actually put on some stick earrings that have a glow center that he managed to find inside Gal's house. He knew that he was helpless in the current fight, so he decided to figure out a new skill and he thought of the possibility of stimulating his brain to help him calculate faster to be able to use his current skill quicker. The scene switches Bal & Hyi as they go back and forth, Hyi loving the challenge that he only has a certain amount of time to live until he succumbs to his wounds, relishes in the fight, while Bal remains on the defensive, blocking and countering his strikes with quick precision, her clothes having been destroyed in the battle, having only her bra, panties, white socks and shoes left on her, "Huh, when did you have socks on or glasses", Hyi says while still striking at Bal and smiling "During the fight, of course, I need these glasses if I am to keep up and the socks you don't need to mind" she says, gatekeeping her secrets. Hyi grabs Bal's bra and attempts to pull her in closer to punch her, however, she grabs his shoulder, transforms her other hand into a mana blaster, and blasts him directly in the face, Hyi just barely tanks the attack and manages to grab her other arm and break it.
Bal pulls away, which causes her arm to be ripped off, "Oh, it seems you did some good damage to me" Bal moves the upper half of her arm and sees the lower half in Hyi's hand. She holds her hammer tight in her other arm as she prepares to start battling again, Hyi however starts getting weak as he realizes that he is near death, realizing this, decides to go all in, one final attack that will end his life as he channels all of his life force into a single blow, Bal seeing this, she starts channeling mana into her hammer, which causes it to glow, she prepares to strike, opening slots on her back the reveal jets.
They both stare each other down as they prepare for the climax of this battle, "I'm disappointed in you youngin, I hope that in your next life, you do better", she says pitying Hyi for his decisions, "whatever, ya old hag" Hyi says having finished charging his life force into his attack. Both of them charge at each other, Bal swings her hammer with it also having rockets on the other side of the hammer, giving it more power, Hyi smiles creepily as he does an incredible and forceful swing, and both of their attacks clash, Accelerant watches as they clash, and is so impressed by his grandma's strength, realizing that she is a strong NPC from his perspective, "This power is impressive, I'll need to surpass this and get even stronger if I am to roleplay", it switches back to the clash as Bal channels even more mana into her hammer, causing the rocket to becomes even stronger, this allows her to get the edge and she overpowers Hyi as he becomes too weak to resist the force of the hammer, "Huh, not bad, guess old people do have their benefits" Hyi thinks to himself before getting crushed by the hammer from head to the ground, this leaves a splatter of blood on the ground, Bal emerges out the fight victorious.
Bal adjusting her glasses, uses her hammer as a cane to keep herself up. Accelerant runs to Bal with the rocking chair and sits her down on it, "That was awesome, that battle was like a protagonist and antagonist, sucks I couldn't be the one to finish the fight like the typical protagonist" he says while grabbing Bal's arm that is stained in a little blood from Hyi. "Is this the new form of slang you kids are saying nowadays, I don't understand what you mean by that" she says while laying back on her chair trying to recover from the last fight, "Give me my arm so I can repair it" Accelerant gives Bal her arm and she puts it closer to her upper arm which causes the pieces to slowly put themselves back together, "This is going to take a while to repair fully, sign, did you figure anything out for how you want to get better while I was fighting that boy."
Accelerant sits on Bal's lap and lays on her chest to explain his new idea, "I thought of maybe stimulating my brain to be able to make calculations even faster using my current skill", Bal noticing the earrings that he has on tells him something interesting, "You know those earrings that you are currently wearing can channel energy to a certain part of the body of your own choice" Accelerant becomes intrigued by this news, realizing that he has a potential solution to his theory already.
"Wait really, then if I can use these earrings right, then I should be able to use my skill so much easier", She thinks to himself while mumbling to himself with Bal just relaxing and waiting for her arm to repair, "This boy seems quite ignorant, laying on my boobs while I'm still nearly naked when I just fought someone, young people really have no manners," she thinks to herself while rubbing Accelerant on the head. The perspective switches to Mahiro as she walks out of the police station, having turned Mestra, "Oh right, college is gonna start soon, I'll need to dust off the uniform" Mahiro dusts off her uniform while running at extreme speeds towards her college to make it in time for classes, "11:00 am, just 30 minutes until my class starts."
