Chapter 642: 642
Chapter 642: Thank you, my dear knight
Translator: imperfectluck Editor: KurisuLater that night, Seiji was contacted by Hana .
"Those daggers are a spiritual weapon crafted by the Messengers organization . The people you met are from that faction," the cat-eared hat girl reported to him . "The Messengers organization is actually a new faction that split off from Soul World . The Messengers were created by some former members of Soul World that believe in using any means necessary to achieve what they desire . "
That was a lot of information to take in at once!
"…Did Sister Yui give you this information?" Seiji inquired .
"That"s right, Sister Yui told it to me . She"s a member of Soul World," Hana quietly stated something that should have been an incredible secret .
"Since she"s let you know about her ident.i.ty, that probably means it doesn"t need to be a secret anymore . "
"Yep, since it"s no longer considered to be a crime to be a member of Soul World . "
"Will she join Soul Society later on as one of their higher-ups?"
"I don"t know, but I think it"s highly possible . "
They both fell silent for a moment .
"So the Messengers are an evil organization that split off from Soul World, and Soul Society is the organization of justice that opposes them…?" Seiji folded his arms .
"I think that a more appropriate a.n.a.logy would be to call them factions of chaos and order . " Hana also folded her arms .
"I suppose you"re right… so the next cla.s.sical development will be the battle between chaos and order?"
"That depends on what the Messengers" goal is . "
"Sister Yui doesn"t know their overall goal?"
"She didn"t say anything about that . She only said that the creator of the Messengers was someone who would stoop to any means . "
Stoop to any means? This typically meant that one wouldn"t care about any collateral damage or harm caused to others . No matter what this organization wanted to achieve, being willing to "use any means" was already the best evidence that they were relatively dangerous .
It was truly unfortunate that Seiji had created a grudge with such a faction… but perhaps it was something bound to occur .
"What about anything else? Is there anything special about those daggers?"
"They"re a weapon that"s specially created for the Awakened . These daggers are capable of absorbing and storing the energy from defeated spiritual monsters and transmitting it to the holder . However, it should be noted that the transference mechanism is under remote control . Someone else is capable of controlling the mechanism and adjusting the energy output . "
"So, you"re saying that this weapon"s energy output can be controlled by someone else?"
"That"s right . This design allows someone else to control the weapon"s holder . Someone else with the control mechanism can self-destruct the weapon with a single press of a b.u.t.ton . Or, it"s possible to instantly have the weapon start transmitting energy at maximum level, without any regard to the weapon holder"s will or well-being . "
Seiji recalled the scene from before when he heard this .
Those three individuals who attacked him had all seemed to be rather abnormal . Perhaps they hadn"t attacked him out of their own will . Perhaps it was due to that person behind them…
Seiji felt that it was a pity he didn"t manage to stop that Spiritual Ability user and the last Awakened there .
Seiji felt pity for the three people under the Messenger organization"s control . He now also concretely had a better idea of what the Messengers were really like .
"Is there any more information?"
"That"s all about the daggers . Next would be regarding your friend Hos.h.i.+ Amami"s combat uniform . " Hana paused for a moment . "The damage to his uniform is highly likely to have been caused by spiritual weapons . "
"…Are you talking about all of the damage?" Seiji now had a serious expression .
"Yep, 100% . "
They both fell silent yet again .
Hos.h.i.+ had stayed behind in that realm by himself for more than three hours . All the various types of damage done to his clothing had been from spiritual weapons… Did Hos.h.i.+ go fight a battle against an army of Spiritual Ability users!?
Just how many people were there? What faction were they from? What was the result? Those were all important questions .
Yet, the main character of the incident in question had lost his memories!
It would have been fine if Hos.h.i.+ had only been fighting against spiritual creatures . Yet losing his memories after fighting against humans? That was no laughing matter at all .
"We need to think of some method to help Hos.h.i.+ recover his memories . Otherwise, we won"t even know what trouble he"s gotten into . " Seiji sighed .
"Perhaps he met another group from the Messengers and had a huge fight against them . " Hana took a random guess .
"…That"s possible, but we"ll only know for certain once he remembers . "
Well, it would be slightly better if Hos.h.i.+ had fought against another group of Messengers, since Seiji and his friends had killed three of them already . It wouldn"t change much more if they antagonized the Messengers again… the important part was if Hos.h.i.+"s ident.i.ty was exposed or not! Did they see his face!?
The Messengers organization was a split-off faction from Soul World that trended towards chaos . Becoming enemies with them would be no laughing matter . If Hos.h.i.+"s ident.i.ty was exposed, that would be incredibly dangerous!
"Maybe I should load back in time . " Seiji suddenly had such a thought .
But, he then sighed after recalling what Hos.h.i.+ had said back then .
"Let"s try to have my idiot junior recover his memories first before deciding what to do . "
Hos.h.i.+ was sitting down under a tree, observing beautiful flowers while watching tiny b.u.t.terflies dance among the flowers .
A light breeze blew past which slightly shook the flowers . There was a sweet aroma and bright red leaves were falling… This scene and atmosphere were so beautiful as to be addictive .
An ethereal song sounded . When Hos.h.i.+ looked to find the source, he noticed that the golden-haired girl was already standing next to him since an unknown time .
Hos.h.i.+ silently looked at her and listened to her song . He felt as if his very soul was being cleansed . He had no idle thoughts whatsoever, and his heart was completely calm .
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded .
Hos.h.i.+ turned around and saw a squadron of people in various types of clothing . They were all holding blood-red weapons or guns .
All of them had black, gray, or red misty auras around them which gave Hos.h.i.+ an ominous impression . He felt that they didn"t belong in such a beautiful location at all .
The golden-haired girl also looked at this squadron and stopped her singing .
These people then did something that caused a dense gray mist to arrive . The air speedily became chilly .
The flowers started losing their color as they wilted in large patches . All the b.u.t.terflies dropped on the ground and turned into dust .
Even the tall red-leafed tree was speedily losing its life force at a visible rate . Its bark dimmed in color as its leaves kept dropping… it finally became rather ugly and scary with how dried out it appeared .
This squadron of people then left this area .
They destroyed the beauty and calmness of this location and then left just like that .
A feeling of anger arose within Hos.h.i.+"s heart .
He looked at the golden-haired girl . Although he couldn"t see her expression clearly, he could sense her sadness .
Hos.h.i.+ then witnessed this scene repeating itself countless times .
At first, the golden-haired girl didn"t do anything at all . But as her sadness increased, she started hiding her garden"s presence .
Yet, those people still kept finding and destroying her garden . Evidently, they had a method of locating her garden .
After that, she was forced to start fighting off those people .
But even if she chased them away, they would soon return with even more and stronger companions!
The golden-haired girl was having a bitter and difficult time fighting against those people .
All she wanted was to maintain her garden . Yet, those people always brought along destruction and turned the entire world to grayness .
Hos.h.i.+"s anger reached its peak after witnessing all of this .
Just chasing those people away would be insufficient . They needed to be killed!
Only by killing them would they never return .
As if she sensed his anger, the golden-haired girl looked at him and slowly reached out with her tiny hand .
Hos.h.i.+ stretched out his hand and lightly held her hand in his .
Her hand was cool, soft, and smooth… a subtly wondrous sensation .
But, that wasn"t the important part . The important part was that this was the first time that he was finally able to touch her .
Hos.h.i.+ tightly gripped her hand, transmitting his own will .
"I will help you .
"I will protect your garden, your home! I shall make those people that bring destruction pay a fitting price!!"
The girl sensed his feelings . Her mouth arced upwards slightly as she smiled movingly .
She then spoke one sentence .
Hos.h.i.+ didn"t recognize the language she spoke in . Yet, he was mystically able to understand the meaning . . .
"Thank you, my dear knight . "
