The third book really isnt much use in the end. All it does is go over the specific differences in how the laws apply to a human compared to a Guardian. But I do feel like it could be sothing that might be tested over in a class, so I make sure to read it all anyways.
By the ti I finish reading it and look out the window, I realize that its already the afternoon, and my stomach is growling rather loudly. So I grab the three books and head off to turn them back in before going to the cafeteria and grabbing so food.
Several minutes into my al though, I hear soone approaching my table. And when I look up, I find it to be Sylver who doesnt seem to be all that happy.
Ive been looking for you for hours now, he states, irritation clear in his tone. Where have you been?
I stare at him for a few seconds before answering, I was reading up on Guardian Law in the library.
That seems to surprise him for a second, following which he lets out a sigh. The library. Of course.
So, why did you need ? I ask before digging into my food again, occasionally glancing at him in the process.
He watches eat with an incredulous look on his face as he says, Your father told to train you today since he couldnt make the ti to do it.
I finish chewing the food Im eating right now and mutter, Oh.
Sylver watches eat for a few more seconds then sighs and sits down at the table. Ill just wait for you to finish eating then.
Cool.
In hindsight I shouldve expected Allen to be too busy to train and teach on a daily basis. He is after all the CEO of one of the most successful companies in the world, and the leader of a powerful Association. Which cos with a lot of responsibilities.
Youre not even going to comnt on his calling Allen your father this ti? Tar asks out of curiosity.
No point. Everyone just keeps doing it anyways since its clear that Allen thinks of that way. And while I do view him as a father, there are reasons why I cant admit to it out loud. At least not until Im strong enough that my orphan status doesnt matter.
So why bother correcting it every ti?
Itd just get old fast.
The tanuki doesnt say anything in response to that.
Ti passes and soon enough, Sylver looks incredibly bored. That is, until right before I finish eating, when a shattering sound resonates throughout the city and the air itself becos tainted red.
Practically everyone shoots to their feet as a siren then begins echoing across the city, marking the beginning of another Demonic Assault.
Everyone, begin preparations for the Assault as you wait for your assigned Fractures, Sages voice echoes from the intercom, just as emotionless as always. They will be sent to you through your terminals shortly.
The intercom beeps as its shut off, leaving frowning at the ntion of a terminal.
You havent gotten yours yet, Sylver says as he taps the thing on over the forearm of his clothes. Then he reaches up and taps on the amulet hes wearing, making it transform into a full body magi-tech suit. Your orders should be going through my terminal as well.
As if summoned by his words, his terminal flashes and Sages voice echoes out of it, Sylver and Scarlet, you are both to head to The Ancient Dragon 5 Star Hotel to deal with the Class I Fracture there.
Sylver imdiately begins grimacing, likely at being stuck babysitting again. But this ti it goes away as he turns to with a blank expression and says, Well, lets go.
I make a sour face at the thought of riding on a hover cycle with him again.
Im left gawking for a second in front of the massive building that is apparently a five star hotel after we make it to the Fracture. The thing stands at what must be a hundred floors with a giant dragon snaking up the building in what I believe is the old world Eastern style of dragon? The one that looks more like a snake with wings than a dragon. A big snake with wings.
Snap out of it, Sylver says, breaking from my stupor to find him dismissing the hover cycle and walking over to the buildings grand looking entrance. Sage says that the core weve detected in the building is on the rooftop penthouse, where the building was apparently hosting a massive party. And the building itself is giving off Class I signals.
I quickly follow after him to the entrance as he continues talking, This ti Ill be leaving you to clear your way past each floor upwards as I skip through the stairs to the higher levels. Unlike the last Fracture, the majority of the people are in the top floors of the building, so the rest of the floors should have a much lower chance of casualties.
Without hesitating, we both pass straight through the active shield into the hotel, following which he makes a break past the demons in the entry hall to head towards the stairs. anwhile I take a second to focus on the demons themselves.

There arent any hounds on the floor, with the only type of demon here being panthers. And theyre all quite weak in terms of level compared to the last demons I faced.
The panther spawn themselves are honestly a little similar looking to the hounds. But as panthers instead of hounds. They have black fur with streaks of red going through the black, along with glowing red eyes that honestly remind a little of my own eyes.
Without wasting any ti, I imdiately use blood boil on half of them, drawing their attention to as that half begins whimpering and falling to the ground with small bubbles of crimson blood popping on their skin, soaking their fur in the process and painting the black parts crimson. After that, I activate my claws on both hands and rush in, focusing hard in order to use the new combat moves Sylver and Allen taught on the creatures before I eventually move on to demons that can actually prove more of a challenge.
