Loki who had just escaped from Leila stopped running on a roof of a random building. He had succeeded in his mission, even after many uncertain factors ca to disrupt him. Still, he wasn't expecting a person that could use sothing similar to mana to appear.
Loki looked at his arms and sighed. If he had stuck with that crazy woman for a few more seconds he might've actually died. Loki currently could no longer move his arms which were numbed, as his mana had depleted to a near zero. He took this ti when his arms could not move and his body was aching all over to rest up.
'What was that, her technique wasn't as strong as the warriors back in my old world, but her speed alone could match up to those at the master swordsman level.' That was an extrely great complint coming from Loki as master swordsn back in his old world were people that had stepped foot in the realm of the strong. Even though there were many master-level swordsn in his old world, that was a world filled with mana. In this world that was nearly devoid of mana to train to that level at such a young age was incredible.
'No, she did use sothing different from mana. Maybe the people of this world had discarded mana for sothing else. It might be a weaker version of mana, but what it lacks in purity, it makes up for in quantity. I wonder if I could train the sa energy as well... The school of Sword Light, maybe there are other schools in this world that could teach how to use that energy... No, that might draw too much attention, based on how she was the only one I saw using that impure form of energy amongst thousands of people within the city, that would an only a few know how to use it. So learning it from a school might make stand out too much.'
Loki raised his arm as he could finally feel it again. He clenched his hands into a fist trying to see if there were any problems.
'Still, if I can sohow activate that sa energy on my own that would be for the best. Yeah, if it is better to train in that impure form of mana than the pure mana I'm using then I would train in that. An assassin must quickly adapt to his surroundings. There is so much that I still don't know about this world, I hope the mories of the past owner would quickly co back to . Having a lack of knowledge such as the basic information of this world is proving to be quite troubleso.'
...
Loki could finally feel his arms functioning again and sighed. His body was aching all over and he even after resting for half an hour his mana wasn't restored properly, still, it was enough for him to use [Enhancent] so that he could land safely on the ground. As he landed at an empty alleyway, Loki looked at his watch and sighed.
'I need to get ho quickly or else Alisa would get mad at again.'
...
A few days ago when he dealt with Luke's group and went ho at around two in the morning, what awaited him was an angry Alisa.
"Big brother where have you been?!"
"I had so business to attend to, didn't I send you a text ssage? Also, why are you still awake Alisa, don't you have school later?"
"Don't change the subject big brother! I kept on calling your phone but you turned it off! What business would you need to do in this hour? Also, you're still on sick leave, not to ntion the problem with your mories. So what kind of business do you need to attend to in your current state?!"
Alisa was really angry but at the sa ti, she was crying. Loki was shocked to see that reaction of hers and didn't know what to do.
"Big brother, please take better care of yourself. Mom and Dad are no longer here, and we only have each other left. I can't, I just can't big brother!"
Seeing the pained expression that Alisa was showing, Loki felt a pang in his heart. Doing sothing like this with that face of hers that looks so similar to Shera's was a devastating attack on Loki. He approached the crying Alisa and hugged her.
"I'm sorry Alisa, I'm sorry to have worried you. I just wanted to look around the city wanting to see if so of my mories would return, but if staying out this late makes you feel worried then I promise that I won't stay out too late."
Alisa wiped away her tears and nodded her head. "It's a promise then."
...
Loki needed to change his clothes first before heading back to the house. It was already nine p.m if he hurried he might get ho at around quarter to ten. It was a tight schedule but he needed to do it, he no longer wanted to see Alisa looked that hurt.
'I guess I'll deal with the other gangs next ti. Since I already dealt with the biggest gang, the others shouldn't be that much of a problem for as long as no uncertain factors like Leia appear.'
...
"Achoo!"
Leila who was returning to report to the leader suddenly sneezed.
'Is that guy perhaps thinking about ?'
As she was heading back she couldn't help but rember the fight she recently had. That was an exciting fight, it was even more exciting than when she fought in that tournant nine years ago. She was just thirteen years old back then and was considered one of the youngest that joined.
There were many in that tournant who were stronger than her, many of which were an absolute beast on the battlefield, yet compared to them she felt the most excited while fighting Fade. When she fought him, it was like fighting a cloud in the sky. No matter what she did, it felt like he could evade any and all strikes coming at him. Not to ntion she could feel the thick scent of death on him, it was like he could've killed her any ti he wanted.
'I can't wait for our next eting.' She gripped her sword while rubbing it on her crotch as she got excited just thinking about her next battle with Fade.
