I shook Shion while looking at them.
My stomach had a rough feeling. I couldn't explain it, a feeling that I should... abandon her and run now.
Oh, guess I explained it.
I can't... I can't... but... I have to run.. I want to live. Shion won't wake up... why does my body.. suddenly feel fear..? Why have I given in to the emotion of fear?! I slam my balled-up fists onto the ground.
My breathing quickens, and my mind fogs. I grab my blue dagger and hope for the best. I stand up and stomp my foot onto the hard rock as they fire their arrows. I swing my dagger as hard as I can in a full circle.
As I hoped, the sword appeared again. Everything within 30 meters of us was destroyed. I widened my eyes to look at the destruction before me, I drop the dagger, and the sword disappears. I don't see any casualties, other than those guys, I hope I didn't kill any innocent people.
Shion: Damn it... the grass was nice! You're definitely crazy! What a destructive answer for just magic bandits, but if you're worried about having destroyed something major, there weren't any cities or facilities within a hundred kilometers of this place... so thanks for saving the both of us. And you still look fine, not a scratch on you!
She calmly said while turning over and continuing her rest. What a brat, I should've left her. She was probably awake the whole time. Wait, no.. snap out of it Y/n. You did all of this just because you decided not to leave her. She looks fine too, no injuries either. What a relief.
Shion gets up without any problem and faces me with a calm expression after I've just decimated everything within a 30-meter radius.
Shion: Yeah, magic bandits tend to try and steal magic from others, magic in the form of items or spells or books, etcetera. Could you go fetch me something from the Hoshimachi clan? If you've absorbed enough information with that brain of yours, then you'll be fine! Get me a 'Frame Fragment,' will ya? I believe you'll do fine too.
I tilt my head as she gives me a thumbs-up and pushes me through a portal. I flail around before hitting the floor of a mansion's dining room with my dagger hitting the floor next to me. I hear the muttering of someone who seems annoyed. I move my a bit to look who it is. Blue hair, starry eyes, maid costume, giant.. golden axe on her back? Oh, of course, that's Hoshimachi Suisei.
Suisei: Can't believe it... I have to clean up the Hoshimachi Clan's mansion. Why would management give me such a costume, I mean I'm fine with it but, with the job?! At least I get this sick... axe...
She turns to look at me. We both stare blankly at each other. Not moving.
Suisei: ... Intruder!
Crap.
She grabs her axe from behind her back and dashes towards me, I rolled out of the way to avoid her attack. She jumped up while dashing towards me, before hitting the floor with her axe with tremendous force. Luckily I dodged that. I rolled towards her legs and grabbed my dagger, she jumped to avoid me, and in the process kicked me towards the wall. What is she... a master of hand-to-hand?
Before I even processed the situation she raised her axe at me.
Y/n: Wait, wait... Shion sent me here!
I said while putting my arms in front of my face while holding that small blue dagger.
Suisei stopped her attack right before she hit me.
Suisei: So, what does she want, again? She needs to get her own stuff, despite her being a lucky witch.
Y/n: A... frame fragment?
