The aura radiating from the two of them is quite intense, sothing that I don’t think I would want aid at . Two light bearers in the sa place with so really weird tension.
Airi’s sword disappears as a more frustrating look appears on her face instead.
"Whatever, at least it is taken care of," Airi says with an annoyed tone in her voice.
"I doubt that it is the only problem lurking about in this city," Zeno replies as he begins to walk away.
"Doesn’t that an you should help with clearing them out?" Airi questions.
"You have Liam and the girl over there, I think you’ll be fine," Zeno answers with a laid back tone.
It feels kind of odd for him to point us out here since we couldn’t handle the goliath on our own. I don’t mind the confidence in us though, that is kind of nice.
Airi definitely doesn’t seem to like zeno either, sothing else we have in common now.
I just don’t know what my reasons are for it just yet, but sothing about him really gets to . Eventually I’ll figure it out... For now I need to help with clearing out the zierel here.
Airi moves out of hearing range with zeno as I look towards alia.
"We should look for a safe place to make a camp," I suggest.
"Probably the best idea for now," Alia responds in agreent.
With that we both start to search for a good building to set-up camp in for the ti being. Each one is a ss from whatever happened here before the gates were shut.
I don’t mind searching through these places at all, it kind of tells what to expect with other cities around us.
Eventually we do end up finding a decent enough place to stay.
An old comic book store with shelves thrown all over the place, so old blood stains, and two ways in. In short, it won’t take us a lot of ti to secure this store.
"Did you ever read these before?" Alia asks while holding up one of them.
I take a look at it, knowing I haven’t read a single comic in my life. "My Ultimate Luck System". A guy flipping a coin is on the cover with a nice business suit, but I don’t know a thing about it.
"Definitely haven’t read it before," I answer while giving a shrug.
"I honestly haven’t read any comics before," Alia says while flipping through the pages.
"Comics have never really been my go to, especially when it cos to reading," I reply while taking a seat.
I take a seat on one of the dusty chairs that are sohow left in tact.
"Then we are kind of on the sa page with them," Alia says before sitting the comic down.
"My friend really enjoys comics but I don’t know if he’s even around anymore," I respond while looking down at my hands.
I don’t know why it took so long to even think about what could’ve happened to them. Claire, Rokuro... Are they even alive? So much ti has gone by since I last heard a single word from them.
"It is possible. We live in quite the world now," Alia says with so positivity.
"Would you take a risk if you knew your friends might be alive?" I ask with a serious tone.
"Probably not," Alia answers without hesitation. "I just don’t want to take the chance if there is no guarantee."
"I can understand," I say softly.
Creakkk.
The door opens up, footsteps following along with it. After a mont or two I notice Airi and Zeno walking through the door.
They close the door behind them and leave a small light by it, illuminating the room a bit.
"I’m glad you two found sowhere for us to set-up," Airi speaks up with relief in her voice.
"I didn’t want to take my chances sitting around out there," I respond.
"Rightfully so," Zeno says with a bored expression on his face.
Maybe the two of them talked about so stuff while we were busy finding this place.
It’ll be better if they are working together in the long run anyway since we could all fight against the zierel here. I think it just might be a bit overkill if anything.
"Who cares if it is? You don’t want to show rcy anyway," Celeste speaks with frustration.
I didn’t think that would be sothing to cause you to speak but I guess you have a point. Overkill won’t matter anyway, they all do deserve to die regardless.
"Exactly. So let’s just focus on killing them," Celeste responds softly.
That is the plan regardless... I just need to let my body recover so strength.
"You really do have a lot to work on," Celeste says.
I’m working on it, it’ll just take so ti before I can finally get to the best possible spot. Awakening the power within this sword will allow to reach those heights.
"Getting so more speed would also be smart," Celeste suggests.
I figure that will co naturally as I continue to grow; it’ll definitely be sothing I work on throughout the coming days as well.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
I turn my gaze to the person tapping my right arm, it is Alia.
"I’m slowly starting to understand, you’ve been pushing in the right direction," Alia whispers.
Honestly I don’t really know what she ans by that, or maybe I do.
"I just have been putting so faith in you, that’s all," I whisper back.
"You guys don’t have to whisper," Zeno chis in.
Both of them are sitting across from us now.
Zeno is looking a bit more closely at alia while Airi has her eyes on .
I guess the two of them are curious about so stuff but don’t want to ask? That’s what it feels like right now.
But Zeno doesn’t realize that I don’t trust him in the slightest, otherwise I wouldn’t feel the way I do about him. This is another reason for to do what aether said.
