On the other side of the city, Arthur and the others raised against Time to get to the billion Arc building before it was teleported to an unknown place. Just then,a monkey like beast landed in front of them blocking their path to safety.To Arthur, this battle isn't to win, it's to protect and he had to do that
"Take cloud and run to the building... Once you get there, we'll teleport over to your side"
Danzai couldn't help but disagree with his plan
"What about you guys?"
"Don't worry once you get there we'll teleport there as fast as light"
"But..."
Rin lashed out at him
"Go punk"
Danzai runs to the building after putting his trust on Arthur and Rin but a boy wearing an all black outfit follows after him Which puts danzai on edge. He earlier decided to ignore him, thinking he was also looking for the building
"Danzai..."
"Huh.."
Shoot
Cloud who had been asleep the whole time suddenly wakes up and drags danzai down making him to fall on his knees
"Wha—"
"Oh she's awake...."
Danzai looked at the building beside him and realizes that a blast had melted through it and had only whizzed past his face when cloud dragged him to his knees. Speechless and scared,he turns his gaze over to the boy who had been smiling the whole time
"Long time no see clo—"
BOOM
"—ud"
By the time he finished his statement,he was on the other side of a building as blood flowed out of his mouth, accompanying the words he let out . With shock,danzai and cloud turns to see the attacker and realizes it was Arthur
"Hey— where's Rin?"
Danzai stands to his feet and awaited and answer from him
"He stayed behind to buy time for me to check on you guys"
"Eh...."
***
Rin stands over the beast exhausted after managing to decapitate his hand from it's socket. The beast seemed angrier as it writes in pain from losing an arm
It began to swing it's other arm desperately trying to land an attack on rin but he easily evades, agitating the beast more. A last resort from the beast sends him crashing into a building and the beast wastes no time proceeding with the finishing blow but rin evades again, this time alot slower than his last
Damn it
Rin jumps to the top of a building and stares up at the beast who seemed to be closing in for the kill
"Listen.... Right here you'll fall because I will protect this city"
The beast didn't seem to care about what he had to say and continued to advance forward. Rin readied himself with a stance and fixed his gaze on the incoming opponent, not diverting it for anything. The beast launched the first strike with a punch but rin simply points his palm at the beast and blows up a hole through its body with an invincible attack that left as much mental damage on him
Damnit now I've done it
"Wow.... He beat it"
A man who did nothing but sit at the top of a skyscraper commented on the battle that had just transpired
[And so should you]
"It wouldn't be nice to let it end like that.... Right?"
Suddenly a smaller version of the beast respawns from the corpse while rin was still trying to recover. It wastes no time in dealing with Rin, brutally injuring him as his mental state saps away slowly
"There..."
Damn it... I can't even concentrate. At this point I'm gonna die....damn
"Rin!!"
Rin looks and sees his friends, the ones who always follow him around shouting to him
"Wha—" Rin's words get cut off by a blow to his gut
It's over... I'm gonna die
"Who said?!"
"Huh..."
Rin looks and sees a girl standing over his friends with a smile on her face
"Have you forgotten who you are?"
Oh right
"Embodiment of gravity?!?!"
Rin grins and shouts back at them
"One cup of instant ramen for you all"
"Stupid!"
The beast closed in for it's fatal attack but rin uses gravity to extend the distance between them making the beast to miss it's supposed target.
"Why the rush.... Let's play longer—oh sorry"
Rin claps and two buildings slam into the beast, halting it's movement temporarily
"What a drag..."
Rin raises his hands in the air and puts it on the ground and a force flattens the beast exploding it's body into bits
Finally — oh shit
Rin falls to the ground unconscious while his friends run to him in panic. The man sitting on the skyscraper stands up and walks away with a smile on his face as a scar is revealed on his neck
"Found you...."
***
Danzai and cloud closed in on the building with a clear path ahead of them . Danzai grew tired from running with someone on his back but decided not to say anything about it. Arthur had already gone ahead and gotten into the building waiting for cloud to come close enough and teleport there given that her movements are ranged. Having been teleported there, danzai dropped off cloud and told them to find the billions coupon.
"If you find it, you'll be transported straight to the academy and you would have passed the first test"
"What about you"cloud asks feeling somewhat annoyed that danzai wanted to go out again
"I've to find Rin..."
"But...."
"Don't worry I'm not sure I'm an embodiment so there's nothing to feel bad about "
Arthur speaks up
"Go quickly.... We probably aren't in the East anymore"
"You too..... Hmph!"
Danzai runs out of the building observes a mysterious occurrence outside.
"What?!"
The billions arc building teleported to a place in the city where not even a stone had been turned, the exact opposite of the East where destruction was laid bare and buildings were on fire
"I've to find my way back there.... Somehow"
***
Jack runs back to his research lab and finds it empty which pisses him entirely
"Where is danzai?.... And why is there no embodiment killer captured here"
The guards bows in respect and plea
"Jack..."
Nindo, a man from the exiles call out to him
"What?"
"There was only sightings of one embodiment killer"
"Where...."
***
Sky sits on a trash bin with the woman's face buried in it
"You're boring.... I need a stronger person"
The woman explodes in power which blows up the trash bin and sends sky soaring through the sky with his hands crossed. He crosses his legs and floats up in the air
"There.... Show me more of that power"
