COI C35
It's been two days after training and starts patrolling immediately, the city is changing their plans to get the resources outside and focusing on public order. Cases about many infiltrators and returnees inside the abandoned districts. Isekai City can house almost half a million with empty lots and residences who weren't caught by the incident. Although separated, there are many abandoned parts of the city put them into a different situation. Now home to any workers who lived somewhere else had home between Chojima and South Shore Bay. Where the swarms continue, they are preparing for the worse.
Somewhere in the city hall, many officials were planning out ways to deal the demands needed for the city to function. The staff announced it
"Supplies for raw materials such as ores or anything that are strong, flexible, or even conductive are now handled by Enders Bridge. Thanks for the city guild for gaining profits and now easily in good trades with them. However, if we can't continue profiting by doing outside work such as doing quests, we will soon lose supplies to maintain this city's progress"
These officials were different, the government service should be highly trained to serve the public interest. Now replaced with new people.
All of them wore in attractive uniforms fit for a cosplay with suits that give a charming appearance. Either way, their performances were not seen improvement for only just close to a month. Color schemes aside, the meeting needs to know.
"It is confirmed from the locals, in both sides, that they discovered people returned from the east side of the city. They were not updated or identified after installing the new security systems. No matter how advanced the shields are, they are still our city's former residences. There is nothing we could do but to commit hard actions when approached"
"Lastly, reports from the city guild, research department, by talking someone from Enders Bridge. It confirms a lot regarding about the goblin's tricks and his descriptions. Comparing their statements, it is certain that the goblin is giving half-truths with a few exaggerations than it is. Sadly, the mentioning how the security is doing for his opinion was stop after the case about the realms. These unidentified groups within the public were put into detail. Leaving no trace where its origin fled from the scene"
The report ended and for the officials continue to handle the situation.
"Then we have no choice"
"I thought governing would be easier now with our new upgrades to the system"
"Good news is that more Enders are here. They should be become useful with their expertise"
"Getting our own hitmen are sure give our ego down"
"Unless they would cause an uproar, but they are cheap when it comes to . . . how should I say this"
"It's alright, when we found their hidden bases. We will put the end of their crimes"
"Giggle* Oh come now, I misheard between those criminals and the Enders. But I really want to have a talk with that rat guy. He has some knowledge I never thought for a runaway"
The officials have received an update survey across the city, the most active location they found are from Mihayara District. Neither the partial remains of Fuki City nor the empty main roads to the west were no signs of criminal activity. They have thought those where they will be sneaking inside the city. No, in the east side of the city where the place is already fortified.
“The police on the east border toll have already secluded the area. Are there any reports about it?”
“All reports remained the same, no changes happened to the breach. Except for the first breached”
Checking in the criminal activities in Mihayara District, they found reports where the former bus stations where most people gathered. Both the locals and the civilians had report, and the officials know it will be a bait as they hide when spotted. Their manpower with qualified police forces is stretching thin as the city grew wider with every realm made and it is called as zones by the fugitives.
“We must accept the fact that the defectors have infiltrated the city. Tell them that they need to find their bases before it reaches deeper to the other districts”
Soon after dark in Mihayara district, Haw lays flat with the girls resting both in his arms. Both of them rests while he remained awake, it's been like this since after the city's summer event. These two girls seldomly went to work now, when they did, it was the usual empty building with cooperation by the other company. Every time he picked himself up out of their bed. They pulled him back in, nothing more having addicted by his . . . special skills. He had enough and bring himself out of their apartment. He changes his home clothes, gifted by them, to his Enders clothes, and one of them wakes up.
"Honey, please don't forget for our next session. There's no work for us and neither will you"
Haw is becoming helpless, not because how good they are but how their stubbornness put themselves into submission that they are willing to do anything for him to stay. He knows this is inhumane, but the fact that they are now his and put them into his control. They are insane, like all people are in this world. He got out of the building and found some trails with a familiar sight. The trails can't be seen by the citizens, and Haw noticed it started to fade. He rushed his way where the trails faded to. Surrounded by people soon no longer there where he stepped closer into an empty alley.
His run changed by walking, now turned into slow steps, then finally a quiet prowling. The trail is starting to get fresher and fresher where he is no longer trust his safety and remained in the dark. Going deeper to the dark alleyways where he saw moving objects with no sounds, he is now entering into what he can't comprehend. Reaching it deep then he stopped. A man lying down with pinned by pieces of sticks, a woman with a weapon standing over him.
"Nice job tracking him, I almost thought I was too late"
"Is this I have to do during a hunt?"
"Hunt!? There is no way we could let you torture a suspect"
The woman vanished including the man lying on the ground. The one she talks to reveal his position where the area was supposed to be dark, and the sounds in the environment returned. The man looks at Haw with the sticks he was carrying drenched in blood.
"There's no reason for you to be intervening. You are part of the team"
U'ecin appeared before him and Haw showed himself ready with only the Enders clothes at his back. U'ecin again said to him
"I'm guessing you were not allowed bring the stuff"
The two sit anywhere they could talk, either be on the benches or by lying on the wall.
Instead, they seated on the ground floor.
"So, what brings you here unarmed"
"Enjoying the night, I was ordered to get their equipment instead my own"
"Ha! Just like Rusic"
"Yeah, and the trail of blood seem to be not noticed by other people"
"It trails in dark ink with mist rising as it dried up. How they can't see it?"
U'ecin looks at the pins he holds and tried to stick it in on his hand. Haw didn't realize it where the head of the pin started leaking blood. U'ecin quickly pulled it out and look at his own blood, it is the same thing then use a different pin with different pin head. The stick was made it himself but not the head. He thought it was an improvement given by the police, but he had something else in mind.
"They did something with my sticks, better try removing it"
He removed the pin heads and sees his sticks what he wanted use for. Then Haw ask him
"Do you need any help?"
"I already have one. Ironno and the Rusic, won't even say his name, are joining the hunt. Myrrkei won't be much of a help"
Haw had expected much, but facing a citizen is near impossible to take down. Even more so in groups. U'ecin gave him an offer
"Would you mind? You’ll be using my kit without them knowing, their hospitals kept their good reputation to be their finest apothecaries. If we were about to die, those citizens can handle it"
Haw never once went into their hospitals, hearing it about saving lives in a dying state.
"I would, but will I have to . . ."
U'ecin pulled out his sets of weaponry including some alchemy sets. By the look of Haw's eyes with a quick nod and took the sets. He has no armor to wear but the risks were no greater than what he holds within U'ecin's hidden equipment.
"Indeed, now follow me to the others"
They left the area as they run and search for the others. The woman returned with a serious glance to find U'ecin.
"Fuck! Where the fuck is he?"
She looks around and found some pin heads lying on the ground. She screams
"Shit!!!"
and proceed to call the others.
The securities within the vicinity are underway to patrol the empty areas of Mihayara District. Ruby from Saint Heroes was there to search and suppress any suspicious bystanders. A man who was with the woman is now apprehended and took away into the police vehicle. Her device raised a distress signal, she opened up her device and heard the call.
"Call to all operatives, repeat, call to all operatives. Team Enders removed their safety gears. I repeat safety gears were removed"
Ruby had no idea what she said as she is here for her daily duties. One of the police said to her. She was worried and said
"The new guys possessed with sadistic weaponries. it will cause trouble when left alone"
Ruby just nodded at the police woman, she bowed at her and left. Her speed reached where they should be. She found the dwarf trying to fix up his weapon. The police baton was added few runes with it where the dwarf carefully carves it. The other one she saw reading a printed map of the city, giving only what left of the partial city.
"Rusic, did you see that U'ecin?"
"Yeah, that bastard found one of your targets and wander off. I heard they caught it"
She turned to the other guy.
"Hey Ironno, any idea after that"
"I'm not sure, but he will come back. He can't handle them alone . . ."
He paused after saying alone, she didn't hear a simple period of his words but a slow lowering tone.
"Why are you quiet all of sudden?"
He didn't respond.
"Answer me damn it"
Haw and U'ecin appeared from Ruby's point of view. She began to sigh in relief along with Ironno as well. Ruby quickly turned to him after she hears his sigh.
"I heard you sighing . . ."
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
Ironno was focusing on the map with his face covered by it. Ruby stopped there and ignored him. She moves in quick speed to U'ecin.
"Please handover the weapons when you removed its safety gears"
U'ecin can't resist and show her the sticks.
Ruby not knowing what it is and used her device to scan it. After few moments later, she read what it is. She starts to get worried when she starts combining what Ironno said if him being alone and with those sticks. In her mind
"Are you going to bleed the suspects to death? The safety pins were the one to stop the bleeding and prevent the citizens to see the blood evaporating into mist"
She picked them up and kept it in her inventory. She told him
"U'ecin, don't stray away from your orders. One of the police is looking for you"
She picked her device and called them.
"He's here, continue the patrol before the other suspects escape"
Ruby dashes away leaving no other instructions for them. Rusic didn't bother what was going on, he is just almost perfecting the runes on the police baton.
"There, hey it's the kinker. Wearing the Enders clothes again, say why didn't you wear your armory"
U'ecin breaks in Rusic conversation and said to him.
"More Enders are enough to settle the fight"
"U'ecin, it's been a long time I’ve done a, man to man, fight, but your weapons are being under controlled by the guards. I say, look at my weapons"
A police baton that fits the size of small sword for him.
"It's like a barbecue stick for children where the point at the end got curved . . ."
" . . . I know were facing dangerous enemies and I 'm using a children's weapon to fight them. I should bring my baby spanking hammer from my home city if needed be"
Both Haw and U'ecin look at the police baton carved in dangerous rune writings. Now hearing from him to be a children's weapon to let them know he too don't want those safety gears attached on his weapons. Only Ironno responded
"Agreed"
"You see, my friend here already know the situation without even bringing his own weapons. He is also using their equipment"
Haw turned to Ironno and take a look on his map.
Ironno did had nothing to carry. Haw then look at the map put some light on it by using the street lamps. A see through coming from the paper saw pieces of scrolls lying hidden with it. The writings are there and more to what he could read. It's neither from Ironno's writing nor Rusic, he knew Ironno well to be preserve in defense during their travel to the city. Rusic is more likely writing anything in hard surfaces and not on papers. Rusics never wrote something weak or soft. So, it must be from the two, Myrrkei or U'ecin. He moves away and waited for the police to come.
U'ecin takes a glimpse what Haw raised it to the lights where Haw leaves. He read it and later said to him where Haw left.
"How come they didn't notice about the scrolls?"
Ironno get back to reading the map and said
"They can't identify that are not yet complete. Giving a few examples how it can be smuggled in"
U'ecin never would have thought that Myrrkei is getting with another testament in this city. Haw checked the set, U’ecin gave, that would be dangerous but efficient enough to suppress. In his relief, he knows how to handle it. U'ecin saw him checked, he is assured that the set was not removed its important ingredients. He understands his concerns and continued on.
The woman who was with U'ecin appeared before them. Shroud by night and lights to her sides, she confronted him sternly.
"I appreciated that there are more of you"
She look around with only 4 in total. She scanned them by her device and saw what their previous occupations. Two were assigned for education purposes offered by the former adventurers. One dwarf was assigned into construction work in Stranding Island. As for U'ecin was already known for surveying the new dungeons. She put her device back and said
"Remember that this mission is a warrant action. It means to capture them"
They look at her being the impossible leader, she continued
"You will be assigned with the other policemen. They will do the rest while you search any more suspects without getting caught. Understand!"
"Yes Ma'am!"
Haw was the only one responds and the others did it differently. The dwarf slammed his hand on his chest and nodded ferociously, U'ecin quietly nods, and Ironno is picking up his stuff. The woman came closer to Haw as he looks ordinary.
"Why are you wearing those clothes? There will be a fight and that clothes won’t protect you"
"Thank you for your concerns, I will not be a hindrance from my appearance"
The woman took a pick from what Haw is carrying. A short moment glimpse helps her see the measure of danger he is holding. After that, there is no sign of dangerous substance.
"Alright, begin your search and don't advance without any backup"
They stood silent and give an approved sign. After what U'ecin did, a few policemen hide in the distance to supervise them. The woman left and leaving them to the search. Haw ask them
"Which of you knows how to hunt them?"
Pointed out only the two, U'ecin and Rusic, where he never experienced working with them. Rusic said his remarks
"I really don't know why that woman expect us to search them boy"
Rusic carried only a police baton and armor specialize on fighting big monsters.
"The first catch was someone got caught by my traps"
U'ecin had his own skills and by the look of his equipment, his body is strong and suited to look like medium quality armor. Either it’s heavy or durable, it looks kind of obvious until it used. Ironno was finished, picked up his stuff and said to them.
"I'll be making choke points. You will find me when the drip of dark mist from U'ecin's corroded blood stakes pierced on their flesh"
U'ecin showed him the remaining sticks on his hand with a pin head.
"Will they let me?"
U'ecin ask
"Will you let me?"
Ironno responded.
U'ecin looks provoked after his respond, seeing as if they know what they don't like what they are supposed to do. Rusic whispered to Haw
"Hey lad, do you know anything about them?"
"If we managed to witnessed them before we're taken out. We might know tonight"
"Or I prefer see each other in the Apothecary's. I heard more women are in their hospitals, haha"
"Most cities had them"
"Sure, what are we supposed to do on the next day? The shipments won't be in our area because they are focusing something else"
Ironno already left and U'ecin is calling for them.
"This mission will take all night. It is better time to change your mind"
Haw and Rusic didn't moved an inch. U'ecin agreed by their silence and proceed to move on. Wandering across the streets, less people found along the way but bright lights inside the buildings stayed strong. Other people introduced them and invited to their bars and other stuff. Haw kept hearing about restaurants or bars with women for company. He remembered hearing it from Shinji and Nanami about the dark side of their home world. Mostly trying to scam them if someone entered the wrong side of the streets. U'ecin easily replied to them in refusal, going on and on, there was a sound click from their backs. U'ecin turned and saw them, he tapped their backs and the signal is up.
The undercover policemen who were ordered to watch over U'ecin saw them react.
"They are on the move, go tell the others"
"Why me? You two boys are going hog all the action"
"I like to act all heroic in front of the girl, but we are still new in this realm of investigation. The veteran police are in the remnants of Fuki City"
"But . . ."
"No buts . . . we need to go"
The undercover police run as soon as they almost lost sight with the targets. Her disappointment quickly calls for backup
"Uh! Why would they go without me"
The other person on the line heard her and answered
"It's good that they let you take the call"
"Eeep!"
She got caught and out performing her duty
"It's alright we will be sending back up . . . What!?"
"Is there something wrong?"
The policewoman checks her surrounding after a confused callout.
"You must leave the premises, we lost signals from your partners . . . Damn it . . . LEAVE NOW!"
A shout from the operator made her shaken. She tried to run as fast as she could.
"What happen? Hello!? Hey!!! Is anybody there?"
She checks her device and the signal was closed. In her troubled mind realizing she entered into a trap, a realm. She looks around where her bright surroundings were faded to black and white.
Both scared and weaken, the zone put her in a debuff state. She pulled out her weapon and turned on the flash light. A figment of disoriented figure came along through the black and white zone. Acting like some bizarre creature, she flashes her flashlight on it and exposed who it really is.
"Freeze!"
The police woman calling out the suspect. The creature exposed and a man in a mask with shades hiding his face. The hoody designed with unfamiliar patterns. Its colored marks light up and blinded the policewoman. Coming closer as the suspect should, she fired blindly. The suspect dodged it.
The bullet should have missed, but the bullet exploded in midair and put the suspect into a surprised. He dodged it with his light feet and flown back where the force put him into. Somehow, another bullets pop in midair caused a force back that is greater than before. He lost his footing and tries to push himself closer to her. He can't move while in midair, he lost his advantage where her eyes adjusted from the brightness. She kicks him on the gut and shoot another one. He managed to dodge it and kept his stance. He quickly throws something at her before she is reloading. In such a close distance, he managed to hit her face and moved closer to her.
He used his body to slam her down to the ground while aching his gut from her powerful kick. The flashlight she carried were thrown away from his reckless counter. The shoes she wore were reinforced, he realized what she was.
"Damn it, a police officer. blegh*"
The policewoman tried to break free
"get off of me"
The suspect lied on top of her, continue to held his gut from the excruciating pain he's having. She used the hilt of her weapon to bashed his head. The hoody protected him where the flashlight no longer flashes on it. The same disoriented figure appeared, the horrific face, and its body pouring out from the hood.
A monster was summoned by his hoody. It pulled him up and thrown to the side
"AH! Just take her down . . ."
those last few words soften after realized what happened
"I lost"
the monster is now on top of her, she pulled another weapon aimed it on the head. The monster put its head on the end of the barrel as she fired. Shot fired where its entire body disappeared, she quickly tried to stand up but slam down as it reappeared.
"What kind of monster is this?"
The policewoman again repeats in the same position where the monster starts beating her down. The suspect remained down while she struggled. She turned and see the flashlight almost close within her reached as she got her head smack.
She tried to retaliate but the monster is kept going. The policewoman casted down any defense she had from shields to buffs. The pain kept coming. Bearing it all as she reached it and grab the flashlight. The ray of light exposed the monster and burned itself away. Her eyes are blurred by the attacks and tried to pull out her med kit. The quiet sound in her surroundings made her more suspicious by the creature. Blurred, she waves around the flashlight and hearing only sizzling. Hassled of finding her med kit, she got pushed away and drop her med kit. She turned to where she got pushed and the sound of sizzles coming from that direction.
She rushed to where the med kit is where the monster is lingering. Another attack is coming, she waves it again. Sizzling after sizzling, finally it stopped. She continues to wave around until the pain dull her senses. She grabbed the med kit and heals her instantly. She opened her eyes where she found another woman, holding up the monster she faced.
"You there!"
The woman turned to her with a sincere face seeing how she is bruised, she responded
"Oh my, are you ok? Monster like this is very dangerous"
The woman reached out to the policewoman to help her. The policewoman stops her.
"I am a police officer, citizen . . . please show verification"
The appearance of the unknown woman is sexually attractive, a sole woman who managed to beat the man's summoned creature.
"Sure"
The woman searched her pockets exposing her massive bosom in front of her. A really attractive woman with her long hair. The policewoman checked the suspect who just eyeing on the woman. Perverted but remained agony from her kick. She rolled her eyes and look at the woman's ID. She received it and pushed the woman down.
"Ow, hey! what gives?"
Exposing herself down on the ground where her hands hiding something.
"This is abuse of power . . ."
She noticed the policewoman took aim at her. She fired and woman quickly dodged the bullet. The woman quickly appeared next to her and aim for her neck. The policewoman activated her shields but quickly breaks and got hit on the neck. The policewoman lied down as she was paralyzed by the attack. The woman lied her down to the ground and wiped her head along fixing her long hair.
"What's wrong with you Ms. offic-e . . . er?"
A stranged look at her face where she saw the policewoman's device.
". . . Oooh, they update the system"
She checked the policewoman's clothes as she strips her.
The suspect remained in pain watch her go at it. The young policewoman dyed her hair blonde and she looks like any other pretty girls within this city, while the other woman looks some kind thick looking woman where the curved fits any man's taste. The woman stopped where the policewoman had left on her are her shirt and exposed panties then she noticed him. The suspect's hoody remained on the ground and looking at her. The woman gave him the policewoman's med kit. He quickly grabbed it and watch the woman carefully. By touching it opened up an UI that showed everything about it. He used it and he quickly recovered.
In his thought
"For the past month or so since I left the city, I never expect anything but electricity is back to the city"
The woman gave him a grin and said
"Now you are getting better. How about we do it here"
The man didn't get it; a policewoman lying down half naked, a suspicious woman looking all hot while she gives a nice exposing pose to her front, and himself in the middle of his own business.
"YES"
Quickly he answered . . . As if. By what the woman is acting . . . it was almost too perfect, her rushing to do it while she showing her body off with an unconscious policewoman.
He witnessed his monster got easily beaten by her, the policewoman gives a struggle to his monster, and now this woman pretends to beat it up out of her own strength. She didn’t show herself being a friend with him or that policewoman. Her action is mix, when she gives him the med kit. She is too skillful to act like that, and more to his suspicion how she entered the black and white zone. This zone is meant for the returning . . . de . . . fec . . . tors. Slowly feeling weak around him, he should be prepared like this but in this city, not yet.
The suspect felt a bit dizzy. A man who abandoned this city and never experienced the new features made in Isekai City. The woman sighed in relief and began stripping in front of him.
"I never thought someone like you returned to this fuck up city"
She gives him a nice strip dance where every clothing she wore tear and burned with every motion of her magic. A seductive look with her lustful gaze as she wanted more from him. He can't believe it, why at this very moment that she had to do it here. In the middle of a secret zone that caused many people to disappear and it is difficult to escape.
He admits that the way she did made him like it, he lied down on the wall as he watched her dance. Not understanding what's going on, he started to remind himself a familiar scene that she tried to do to him. The woman slowly burned off her outer layers and exposing only the nice piece of lingerie. Then he stopped and his faced started to mortified into something terrifying.
"Aw, what's wrong?"
The woman seductively smiles at him, removed her bra where her big chest exposed freely but it's gone with only a flat chest. He remembered a crime case before entering this new world, where a suspect with false identification commits an act of force homosexual activities.
The woman removed her long beautiful hair along with her face. Removed and exposed her true identity. A young man with a crazed smile looks on his face showing in front of him. The suspect began to lose his senses where his strength no longer to give that pervert an impressive beating. He can't move and only see the young man put on his glasses with his teeth shining, the only thing he could do is to watch that maniac do his thing where the last piece of clothing pulled down. The suspect fell unconscious in front of him where the young man ended his dance. Within a secret zone where there is no one could enter or escape.
