"Ah~. So tiring."

The white haired male slowly stood up from the bench as he heaved a small sigh. All the while people were staring at him like he was some kind of lunatic.

Admittedly, it was justified, as the white haired male was in a dark blue robe with a red cloth around his waist. There were white outlines that made the robe distinct, yet at the same time, very un-Christian-like due to the white outlines creating a cross at unconventional places, like the relatively small shawl wrapped around his shoulders and fastened at his chest.

Or maybe it was because he held a pure white cross shaped spear that seem a little too sharp, especially at the tip. Even the big cross beams' edge seem sharp enough to fracture a human skill with the force alone. He had tried it after all.

On an actual skull from an already dead person, that is. There is no way he would kill a person unless necessary, as that was against his moral code.

In addition, he also had a white antique revolver at his left holster, with chains loosely wrapped around his waist that connected to the butt of the revolver. There were a few pouches on his sides, half filled with ammunition of different calibers per pouch.

He was no Honkai Hunter or whatever they call male Valkyries, nor was he a mercenary. He was just a male who is overprepared despite being 17 years old and shouldn't legally be able to hold a gun without permission that, for some inexplicable reason, can fight against the Honkai despite being male.

And people wondered why he was never enrolled into St. Freya when that answer was already obvious. He was a male. That much he knew, which was why he lived in the hills of Soukai City.

Where was he now? He was at the neighbouring city, returning to Soukai by waiting for the ship to arrive that would lead him back to Soukai City.

Ah right. He also had his backpack with him filled with supplies.

"Now then. To the por--" he was cut off when the whole city shook.

"An earthquak--?"

"Attention to all Hibachi City citizens," a news reporter announced, echoing worldwide throughout the city. The white haired expected the worst.

"We have a minor Eruption occurring in the nearby forest. We highly suggest that everyone must not flee from the city at all cost for your safety."

"Onore. . ." He cursed under his breath, before looking around. Everyone was, unsurprisingly, level headed, as they went straight to their homes without any time to waste, leaving the boy all alone in the empty street.

Japanese people are known to be extremely level headed in any given situation, which says a lot.

At least no one is staring at him now.

"An Eruption at a time like this? Just when I wanna get home?!" He complained, before sighing.

"Y'know what. I'm just gonna go ahead and finish off those damn Honkai!"

His declaration surprised those inside their homes, as they watched the boy, weapons ready as he ran towards the forest. They weren't sure if he'd survive, but considering that the boy seem well armed, they let him do what he wanted to do, as their main concern was their own safety.

. . . .

"Man, the Honkai energy is intensifying over here," he commented, feeling the Honkai energy getting thicker the deeper he went into the forest, before he saw a shadow of an airship fly overhead. The forest's branches shook furiously from the wind produced from the airship, and suddenly, the white haired boy became curious of the Valkyrie that was about to be sent down for extermination of the Honkai. Hearing the sound of something hitting the ground, he knew he was close, and upon arrival, he saw a woman that was in the same height as he was, with long strawberry blonde hair and a dark brown military outfit, complete with an officer hat. In her right hand was a giant black lance that she held simply with her one single hand. Overall, she seem very powerful.
