The wolf growled at Mr. Compress and started walking towards him again. 

"N-No please, don't do this!" 

"I think there doesn't need to be an encore for your performance either, Mr. Compress. Don't worry, I'll take down every last one of the members of the League once you're put behind bars. Like you always say... Adieu."




Aster sat on the top of the derailed train, knowing that all the innocent people inside each car of the train were going to be unconscious for a while. 

"Geez, how long does it take a Reaper to get here?" Aster asked himself. 

As he was waiting, he heard his phone ringing in his pocket and he pulled out his phone to see it was Lily. 

"Hello?" 

"You're late for work again." Lily said. 

"Hah- figured you'd tell me that, but I don't think I'll be able to come to work anytime soon." 

"And why's that? Where are you?" 

"In Kanazawa." 

"Ka-Kanazawa?!?! What the hell are you doing in Kanazawa without telling me?!?!"

"Listen, Izumi got captured by a member of the League and Katsuki asked me to help him find her. We didn't realize she'd be taken to the Kanazawa train station and somehow Izumi ended up derailing an entire train filled with innocent and unconscious people inside. I stayed behind and am now sitting on the derailed train waiting for a Reaper to show up." Aster said. 

"Hah- If I'd have known this was what you were doing, I would've come. So why don't you just turn into a Shisa and get back here?" 

"No can do, I used all my energy to transform into a Shisa just to get to Kanazawa." 

"You- YOU TRANSFORMED WITHOUT MY PERMISSION?!?!" Aster had to pull the phone away from his ear.

"Figured you'd ask me that, but I had no choice, we were being timed and I had to get Katsuki to the train before something bad happened to Izumi. And from what I can smell now, it seems the front of the train ended up in the Spirit Realm." Aster said. 

"So they took the train and ended up using that entrance to the Spirit Realm, huh? Hah- luckily for them, it shouldn't take long for a Reaper to show up in there. I heard from River's assistant; Jun, that he was going to the Spirit Realm during this time of day today. And I'm sure if something were to happen, River would take care of it. Now can you find another way to get back here?" Lily said. 

"Mmmh... I don't really think I should leave a derailed train filled with innocent people behind, who knows if other members of the League appear." Aster said.

"You- Arg- fine! Can you smell any assistants in the area?" Aster pulled his phone away and sniffed the air. The second he sniffed the air, he recognized the smell of charcoal. 

"Oh, I found one." 

"Really, who?" 

"The scent of the Jade Dragon." 

"Ah- you mean Ryuu? Then that means-" 


"What a mess. How can there be this many disgusting souls sitting in one place?" 

Aster turned his head to see a man leaping off a large Jade Dragon. He had Black hair and eyes and was wearing a Black suit and holding a large Death Scythe.
