Rea’s Inhuman ability
Goki, on the other hand, sighed and said, "Right. You have a point. Let's put that aside for now. As you already know, it seems the vigilantes' target is the VIPs. And it seems like we can't expect help from the military. We are on our own in this. We needed to draw an immediate plan!"
The two instructors agreed with him.
After Ultima and Vortex left, Goki and the other instructors asked Yman to join them.
...
Yman told them more details…
Hah~
A deep sigh escaped from everyone's mouth.
With a frown, Goki opened his mouth. "I see. Then we don't have a choice. The city is in a very critical situation right now. If one of those VIPs suffered a grim fate, the city will be doomed, what's more, if all of them suffered a disastrous fate. This city will cease to exist in no time. Worse than that we will be persecuted publicly and we may be branded as irresponsible for the rest of our lives. Forget about finding good work in the future, we may as well live the rest of our lives rot in jail!"
"Eh? I-is that true?" Yana butt in.
"It wasn't an exaggeration. Goki was just stating facts. It would be the most realistic outcome if something bad happened to the VIPs," Instructor Torr was the one who replied.
"How about the students?" With a worry on her face, Yana asked again. Her concern was her brother's future.
"The students might skip the harsh punishment. But someone like us will not," Instructor Musk said.
After hearing it, Yana was somewhat relieved and worried. She looked at her brother. "Brother, we can't let it happen. I don't want Miss Pai to suffer a future like that!"
Yman smiled lightly. "Yeah." Miss Pai was the only person who showed compassion towards them. He would do anything to avoid such a future for her.
Yman looked at Rea. In any case, it all depends on her as he was in contract with her. "Rea, well. You see—" Yman wanted to explain to Rea, but she cut in immediately.
"It's fine. Do what you want but I'm coming along."
That made him happy. "Of course. I feel more at ease when you're beside me."
With his new ability to revive a dead person, Yman would rather bring Rea and Yana along with him. If by chance something happened to them, he would rather be at their side to immediately revive them. But if things happened while he was away, he might be late. Of course, he didn't wish for such things to happen. His ability to revive wasn't so perfect. The target's chance of revival depends on his remaining blood. So, the closer he was at them, the higher chances he could revive them.
Although he hadn't yet tested it in the bloodless corpse, Yman could already speculate of the outcome based on the experience he had with those two guards a while ago.
Honestly, Yman had no compassion towards the other people in this city except for the few he got acquainted with.
From Yman's reply to her, pink steam burst out of Rea's head at that moment when hearing Yman's reply. Her face beet-red, but she pulled down her hood to hide it— not because she was aware of it, but because she felt the need to do it. In short, it was a pure instinct.
<Partner, there's a sudden growth in your Charisma Attribute.
From out of nowhere, Sistela whispered to him, but Yman just replied with, 'I see.'
Goki and the other instructors decided to rescue the VIPs. "We must gather more capable people," Goki said. Everyone agreed to it. Then he looked at Yman. "Hey, kid. I don't know how you become that strong. But we will need your strength in this. I know it is inappropriate to ask this to a low-level magician, but seeing that you defeated Kiko, I can only think of you as a not ordinary low-level."
"....."
Yman didn't know how to react to it, so he just laughed wryly and said, "I'm just lucky," he said while rubbing the bridge of his nose.
Yman also agreed to help. But he asked them that his sister and Miss Rea would be coming as well, to which Goki and the other instructors agreed, albeit skeptical. They were skeptical because Yana and Rea were civilians. But because Goki trusted Yman, they agreed. Also, they could not waste time arguing about it. Well. Even if they didn't allow him to come with them, Yman would still go and rescue the VIPs.
"We needed more force," Goki said.
After hearing it, Yman opened his mouth. "Then, let's take them," he said as he pointed to the stage. Everyone looked to where he was pointing. All of them gawked when they noticed Almina and Maena were still fighting.
Swoosh~
Klang! Klang!
Because of the commotions, it was lost in their minds that the match of these two was still going on.
Nonetheless, Almina and Maena were exchanging fast consecutive attacks at the moment. Although it was a good fight to watch, none had the leisure to watch them at the moment. Everyone was more inclined about their safety. When Goki and the others looked at the stage, most of them had surprise on their faces. It seemed Almina was at a disadvantage.
Right at that moment, they heard a voice transmitted from the microphone.
*Toing!*
"E-Everyone! I-I don't know what is happening, but I think we need to find a safe shelter first!" It was from Mora Liz. She stuttered, sounding scared.
Goki sighed at that. "Please, kid. Tell them to postpone their match at a later date," Goki said as he rested his hand on Yman's shoulder.
Yman nodded.
After a while.
"Idiot Maena! Hmph!" Almina yelled at Maena and pouted.
"It's my win," Maena replied.
"What? That's not official!" Almina exclaimed.
"I don't care if it's official or not. The only important thing to me is that I won against you."
"But you didn't ko'ed me!"
"But, it's clear that you're already out of options."
"What? Who said that?!"
The two of them were still bickering even after they were advancing towards the tallest skyscraper in the City. Yman and the others didn't know whether to laugh or cry at them. Well, it was also good that they still have the energy to quarrel like this. To replenish their fatigue and lost mana, Almina and Maena drank expensive elixirs. They also drank health elixirs to regain their health points.
On the other hand, Bob, who woke up from fainting, went along with the group of civilians to safety together with Chloe and the other students.
It could be said that Bob had the most adorable reaction when he woke up. He shouted Mac's name, his System Deity, the first thing he regained his consciousness. It was a heartwarming scene when Bob hugged Mac with tears in his eyes. It wasn't easy to lose your partner, who you shared all the difficulties and trials with.
Anyway,
Those who lost in the competition with zero health points left were not yet able to use resonance with their System Deity, so they were advised to just join Jami's group. Bob's only regret was that he didn't see how his friend saved everyone and how he defeated the opponents. He only heard about it from others.
The group that went to rescue the VIPs consisted of Instructor Goki, Torr, and Musk. They include Yman, Rea, Yana, Almina, Maena, and finally Maku. They took Maku with them because they needed a reliable Support-type Magician. And they think Maku falls into the category.
They also include five other students from Class A. These students have strong range abilities. They were Mage-type Magicians. So in total, there were fourteen of them in that group.
While they were advancing in a hurry towards the place, everyone suddenly heard Rea call out at Yman. "Crimson, I heard several footsteps ahead of us."
Everyone looked at Rea in surprise. "Are you sure, lass?" It was Goki who asked. He couldn't believe it because he didn't hear anything other than Almina and Maena's bickering.
"Yes. About two hundred and fifty meters from our left. Based on their footsteps, I think fifteen people were running fast on that side. All of them are using Noise Minimizer ability. And on the corner across the street, which was in front of us, ten people were running fast towards the intersection street ahead. In about five seconds, we'll see them in that corner!"
Rea said, unbothered by everyone's doubt. After hearing her words, everyone stopped on their feet.
Except for Yman and Yana, it seemed everyone hesitated to believe Rea because it was really hard to believe what she said. Two hundred and fifty meters? And they use Noise Minimizers!? Then, how did she hear that? No normal humans could do that.
Although the Noise Minimizer was a low tier of Noise Canceller ability, it was still not easy to figure out, especially at a distance of two hundred and fifty meters away.
However, everyone showed bewildered faces when after five seconds, they really saw ten people ahead of them in the direction where Rea pointed.
"Damn! Enemies!" Goki grunted when he noticed they wore the same attire as the vigilantes.
"Everyone! Prepare for battle!" Instructor Torr shouted.2
