“YOU!” Hiriya yelled.
An evil smirk appeared across her half covered face. She readied a spear made of wood. Hiriya also virtualized his EM armor. As she threw the spear forward, a loud crash could be heard and a gigantic creature crashed through the roof of the cafeteria, instantly impaled by the spear near its neck area. On top of its chest stood a person in a white cloak covering his entire body. The creature did not move. At its chest, it had a huge hole in the crystal like ball at the center. The white figure looked at Hiriya, then at the black hooded girl.
“Hmph, you again, huh?” The White Beast sneered.
The girl seemed to be agitated at the look of The White Beast. She charged towards him.
“Hmph, it’s futile.”
The White Beast casually swung his arm and a strong gust of wind blew the girl off her feet and hurled her towards a concrete wall imprinting her into the concrete. She slowly slid down onto the ground.
“Is that it?” The White Beast said.
He walked up to her and grabbed her by the collar, lifting her completely off the ground.
“… heh, you’ve lost.” The black hooded girl laughed.
“What?”
A scream echoed throughout the cafeteria.
-Earlier-
“Boom”
An explosion destroyed the stadium. Four silhouettes jumped out of the smoke and rubble of the stadium. Shards of glass and metal poles holding the structure together continued to fall. The Judgement still moved forward towards the group.
“…ch, Miyabi, Mariette, focus attacks on it’s wings. I’ll go for the core.” The White Beast said.
“Got it.”
Midori and Mariana Sensei split up into two different directions and fired off magic projectiles of wood and water. The projectiles exploded when they came into contact with the Judgement’s wings. Huge chunks of the wings started to crumble and fall. Kyouki ran to catch up with the group, dodging the rubble as she ran. The Judgement slowly formed a purple black ball in its hands. Noticing this, The White Beast created three white magic circles circling around his EM armor.
[ELEMENT MIX: LIGHT, LIGHT, LIGHT]
A blade of light formed on The White Beast’s EM armor and wings made of light sprouted on his back. He dashed towards the Judgement. The dark ball in its hands slowly started to draw in the rubble from around itself. The wings gave a strong flap and The White Beast jumped up close to the chest of the Judgement.
[ELEMENT: LIGHT: HEAVEN’S SPEAR]
The blade of light extended and pierced the chest of the Judgement, its chest slowly started to peel back and revealed a huge crystal-like ball. The ball started to crack and shattered a hole, at the same time, the black hole in its hands also shattered. It slowly fell backwards…
-End-
Hiriya and The White Beast turned towards the scream; a person with a black hooded cloak was dragging Alicia with him.
“Alicia!” Hiriya yelled.
The White Beast dashed towards the two, suddenly, a wall of trees blocked his way. He turned; the person who blocked him was the hooded girl.
“I won’t let you get to her.” She smirked.
“…ch”
Hiriya dashed towards the wall. He virtualized his EM armor, a magic circle formed around his feet.
“Hang in there! I gonna save you right now, Alicia!”
[ELEMENT: WATER: AQUA LEAP]
A pillar of water elevated Hiriya as he jumped over the wall of trees, on the other side; Alicia was still struggling to escape from the hooded person. The person looked up and raised his right hand, Dark flames started to erupt from his arm, Hirya dodged and landed a few metres from the two. The dark flames scattered around the floor and ignited at the same locations they landed.
“Do not disturb our operations anymore, Hiriya Harima.” The hooded person said in a low voice.
“How do you know my name?”
“We have our ways…”
And with that, a dark shadow started to envelop the hooded guy and Alicia. Seeing this, Hiriya ran towards Alicia. But before he could reach her, the shadow had enveloped the two and they instantly vanished as the shadow disappeared. Hiriya slumped down.
“No… Alicia…”
“…ch, looks like I was too late…” A voice behind Hiriya said.
Hiriya turned and saw The White Beast Standing behind him. Beside him, laid the beaten body of the hooded girl, she had been unmasked revealing her green hair.
“Why… why did they have to take Alicia…”
The White Beast fell silent.
“You should know. You’re the one who is most involved in all of this! Why did they have to take Alicia! She didn’t even do anything.”
“Sorry, Hiriya Harima. I will need to put you to sleep now.”
The White Beast raised his right arm. A white blinding light shone in Hiriya’s eyes as he slowly blacked out…
-The White Beast-
He stared down and the now unconscious Hiriya. Three figures jumped down from the roof of the cafeteria and next to him. They were Midori-Sensei, Mariana- Sensei and Kyouki. They looked around and examined the surroundings.
“Looks like we were too late.” Midori Sensei said.
“Seriously, where did you three go to?” The White Beast complained.
“Another Judgement had appeared in the school, Level 6.”
“I see…”
“Where is the girl?”
“She has been taken by Judgemental.”
“Any idea as to where they took her?”
“…”
The White Beast became solemn, as if he were in deep thought. Kyouki began tending to Hiriya’s wounds. Then The White Beast put his hand onto the unmasked girl’s head. He paused there for a while, and then lifted his hand. Then he stomped on the girl’s face, it shattered into fragments of wood.
“…ch! They tricked us. How’s the restoration of the school barrier?”
Midori-Sensei shook her head.
“Currently only 20% of the barrier is still active so any damage caused by the Judgements will only result in a couple of bruises and cuts, however Exilated Exilers will potentially kill the opponent so any further duels are cancelled.”
The White Beast looked at Kyouki and Hiriya.
“Take him to the infirmary, Kyouki. Miyabi and Mariette, we’ll go and restore the barrier to at least 50%.”
“Hai.”
