[Arc II-Royal Hunt]

        "Oh my~ Are you okay, Tachibana-chan? You suddenly drop your books~"

        "Ah! I'm so sorry, Tadokoro-san." I came back to my senses after hearing the shocking news and apologized after I bowed.

        "Don't worry about it~ Was it that surprsing?" Tadokoro-san asked while finishing picking up the books that I dropped.

        "Ah...yes it was." I said slowly with a concerned face.

        "Tachibana-chan." Tadokoro-san called me and opened a book in front of me. "Do you know what is the name of this {Gate}?"

        "No...I don't know about it." I answered back with a pair of tired eyes.

        "Then~ I shall make this quick since you look very tired~ This {Gate} was the first ever {Gate} that the first Astral created. It's called ."

        "Weird for having a name. What is it about?"

        "It was a magic that she created to give birth infinite possibilities of mankind~ Especially Astrals. Everyone was just regular people until 'The First One' came to this world and gave magic to them.

        "Ah! I see. So when you mentioned that Advants abilities orginated from Astrals-"

        "Yup~ Since Advants appeared later than Astrals~"

        "Though even all that...the mystery just kept getting bigger huh." 

        "Tachibana-chan~ You should go to sleep~ You don't need to go to school tomorrow~"

        "Thanks Tadokoro-san. I will go back now. Goodnight." I said as I waved my hand while exiting her room. She waved back at me with a gentle smile.

        "Goodnight Tachibana-chan~ Take care of yourself~" She said after I left the room. 

        "Now then......[Ascension Arrow] huh. This...could be extremely dangerous." Tadokoro-san said as she looked at the picture of it in the book with angered eyes and concerned tone.

                                                                             -Sora's Side-

When I woke up, the curtains was flying as the light from the sun shined at my legs as the breeze was very nice. When my eyes were fully opened, I saw a familiar ceiling and could tell that I was in the infirmary. When I got out of my bed, I nearly tripped as my legs were a bit weak.

I wondered how long was I sleeping as my memories for last night was hazy. As I turned around and looked at the clock, going to school was impossible since it was already 12:09. I went out of the infirmary and saw Hinako-san sweeping the floor.

As she was sweeping, she noticed me and smiled at me. She looked relieved as she continued sweeping. When I was going to walk up to her, the door exploded and Hinako-san fell down. 

        "Sora! Don't worry about me. Focus so you would not die." Hinako-san shouted as she already knew that I was going to help her.

        "Ah....YES!"

I instantly went out and found myself three people there. I noticed the 'Legion Angels' badge on one of them. I knew that I wouldn't get much rest but I did not expect them to attack me again that fast. 

A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

        "Well I'll be damned. Two Astrals and one Advant huh." 

        "Tch tch tch. You really are feisty, honey~"

        "Wha...." I was very confused. The person who replied me was a muscular dude.

        "Ah...so you're that type huh..."

        "HAAAAAA!? THE HELL YOU TALKING 'BOUT, YOU DAMN RUNT!?"

        "Can you calm down, you shitty loud bitch?"

        "THE HELL YOU CALLIN' SHITTY AVOLT!?!"

        "Keep quiet you both. We're here to talk to him, right?"

        "HA!?! TALK!?! YOU MEAN FIGHT, RIGHT!?!"

        "Riki is right, Robin. We're going to fight and not talk." Avolt agreed with Riki as he fixed his glasses.

        "Can't be help huh. Sorry honey~ Guess we have to fight."

        "Haha. Fight...? You mean kill, right?!" I shouted as my eyes were widened and instantly ran towards them.

        "THAT'S MORE LIKE IT, RUNT!!!!!!" Riki shouted even louder than me as he too ran towards me.

We both clashed with our left arm and punched each other in the face with our right fist. Both of us were knocked back and we kept punching each others' fist. It was painful as I did not experienced this kind of fight.

Riki was very rough and had no fixed fighting style. He was very wild with his attacks and random as well. Fighting him was very familiar as he was kind of hard to fight.

        "OI! OI! OI!!! WHAT'S WRONG, RUNT!?!" Riki shouted as he kept punching my fist.

        "Damn you. You're really persistent!" I shouted as I kept punching his fist.

        "Well then. We shall leave, Robin. Riki looks kinda happy after all."

        "True true~"

As Robin and Avolt was walking away from our fight, Rika shot five arrow-shaped wind to Robin's head. Unexpectedly, Robin actually died. Asvolt saw Robin fell down with arrows sticking out of his or her head. 

I was surprised that a member of 'Legion Angels' died that fast.

        "Wha....WHAT THE FUCK!?!?!" Asvolt screamed so hard to the point his voice went cracked. "How dare you....killing my only friend?!?!? Her {Energy} was not that good to begin with!!!"

        "HEH! THAT FREAK WAS WEAK TO BEGIN WITH! FOR AN ASTRAL, THAT FREAK COULD ONLY HEAL." Riki stated that very loudly while dashing towards the side of my body and kneed my ribs area.

        "DAMN YOU, RIKI! YOU WOULD NEVER UNDERSTAND HOW GENTLE SHE WAS!"

        "THAT FREAK IS A 'HE' FOR GOD'S SAKE! BESIDES! YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH THAT CHICK QUICK OR SHE GONNA FUCK YOU UP!" Riki's face was very excited as he slowly showed his smile of a person that love fighting.

        "Ha?!" Asvolt replied as he was a bit confused and turned around to see Rika was about to stab him. He quickly dashed backwards.

        "You damn brat! Taking someone's life away....I shall rip you to shreds! [By thou the sea sees the blood of the flowing rain poured down from the clouds.] "

Asvolt had his right hand out and a {Gate} appeared. A ball of blood was shot out of the {Gate} with high speed. The size of it was small but the colour of it proved that it will hurt a lot.

For Astrals, each day is a new birth of their body. When a new day begin, they have to chant their {Track} which is a sentence that would unlock their {Energy} and allow them to use their magic. The longer the {Track} is, the weaker the person is. 

Those who can chant short {Track} are extremely powerful Astrals. For {Energy}, it is basically stamina. People have stamina to work, exercise and so on. Astrals had to use their stamina to fight and use magic at the same time.

Astrals had to strategize on how to use their stamina carefully as it can deplete very fast. They either train their stamina when they were young or just relied fully on luck. 

        "COME ON! COME ON! DON'T GET DISTRACTED BY YOUR GIRL'S FIGHT!" Riki shouted while rapidly kicking me while I was guarding.

        "Oh shut up. I don't need to be worried for her." I said as I pushed him back to get some distance.

        "HEH! SHALL WE GET STARTED!?! I KNOW THAT YOUR ABILITY IS VERY POWERFUL...BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER AT ALL AS I CAN DEFEAT YOU EASILY!"

        "Then...shall we use one of our move at the same time?" I suggested it to him with confidence.

        "HAH! DO YOU REALLY THINK I WOULD ACCEPT THAT!?! NO MATTER...I'LL STILL DO IT! IN THREE IT IS!"

        "Okay....Three."

        "TWO!"

        "ONE!" Riki and I shouted in the same time.
