Chapter 14 - The Delinquent Human and A Strange Dalema
After spending some time within the arcade, Lukas felt a little relieved that he could relax after the events that had occurred recently. When he exited the mall, he realized it was becoming sunset, making him feel a little worried that he might be vulnerable on his own, but he sucked it up and began his trek back home. But along the way, he stopped when he felt a strange feeling in his stomach, forcing him to stop in place.
Everything started to slow down for him, making him rather confused on what this feeling was. It felt like a form of danger sense had formed in himself, but whatever it was, he wouldn't be able to react to it in time anyways. Then everything started to move normally when his shoulder was grabbed, with him turning to see a man wearing a black cloak, with the hood covering his face. He could make out that the bottom half was mainly a mask, but with an eerie smile carved into it.
???: "Excuse me sir, can you come with me please?"
Lukas: "Umm.... Did I d-do something w-wrong..?"
Lukas was having a bad feeling about this since he had encountered someone with a similar appearance to this individual. This time he couldn't resist, even if he tried. All he could do is gulp and hope this isn't something bad.
???: "It would be better to talk in a less dense populated area."
Lukas just nods his head and just follows the figure, hoping that he didn't get led into a form of trap or something along those lines. But the moment they left into some sort of alleyway, he was immediately pulled and pinned against the wall. And the next moment more figures wearing the same attire appeared, about three more to be exact.
Lukas: "W-What do you want!?"
???: "We know you are the Omni Magician human. So you are going to co-operate and come wtih us."
Lukas couldn't do anything as he was trying to resist, luckily he could tell that everyone around him was part of the supernatural, so this made him react. He immediately fired off a bit of Wind Magic to knock his captive back, which in the next moment one of them tried to grab him immediately. But sparks of lightning started to form around Lukas, making him blitz out of the grip without thinking as he was on the other side of them in an instant. His body was still aching, but because of him being in danger, his adrenaline was what was mostly keeping him going right now.
Lightning was sparking off of Lukas, keeping an eye on the four figures before him. They took out weapons of their own, going in to charge at him without hesitation. As the figures continued to attack Lukas, he had no choice but to continue to dodge them. But each time he would see an opening, he would fire off Wind Magic as like bullets from his finger gun movements.
But even as he was able to keep up with them, he was slowly being overpowered. One of the figures trip him, making him have to knock himself back onto his feet by using Wind Magic. But the next moment he was hit in the face, knocking him against the wall, forcing him to the ground. He tried to move again but his adrenaline finally gave out, making him not able to move without the use of his crutches.
???: "Are you done now you little shit?"
Lukas couldn't go anywhere, so he closed his eyes in defeat, accepting his demise.
???: "Hey!"
Lukas immediately opened his eyes to look in the direction where the voice came from. The four masked figures looked at this girl who seemed to be at least three to four years older than Lukas. She has blue-purple hair that is somewhat messy but is tied up. Her eyes are a light blue that reflects off of her glasses. She has baggy white pants with durable looking shoes. Her top half shows that she doesn't have a shirt, having wrapped fabric around her chest, while she was wearing a long jacket that split in half with its colours. The one side was a black while the other was a white, but the back of her jacket has a dragon design. She also has a wooden sword at her disposal.
???: "What do you boys think you're doing to this one?"
She was confronting the four figures, but they just laughed it off, thinking that she is just an ordinary human since they don't sense any Magic from her. Without hesitation she was immediately on top of one of the masked figures, slamming his head into the ground out cold.
???: "What the..?"
???: "Who are you!?"
Kson: "Well boys, I am not one for introductions, but you all can call me Kson."
She takes out her wooden sword, preparing for their attacks. The first figure charges in, but she counters by letting the weapon slide off of hers and then bashes her elbow into him. Once she succeeds in this action, she trips the individual and just turns to kick the other one that tried to attack her from behind. The third figure attempts an attack from above, but she saw this coming and just leaps back, allowing the figure's weapon to get stuck in the ground.
She then charges in, landing swift blows with her wooden sword, somehow badly injuring the figure, which she then kicks him into one of his pals, knocking them both back. One of them tries to attack her from behind but she backhands him, allowing her to turn around and land a swift kick the knocks him into the wall, knocking him out cold.
The two figures got back up, making the non injured one attack first. But she didn't waste time as she landed a swift blow to the guy's chest, knocking the wind out of him. Then getting behind him in an instant to neck chop him. The last one attempts to attack, but she just straight up lands a knee kick into the man's gut. Then tripping him over her, allowing her to land a final blow on the figure with her wooden sword that knocked him out too.
This whole time Lukas was surprised by her agility and skill. She seemed to have shown off no Magic whatsoever but was able to handle herself very easily. She put her wooden sword away and quickly went to grab his crutches. After she does so, she immediately went to Lukas.
Kson: "You alright?"
Lukas: "Y-Yeah.. Thank you.."
He tried to get his words out but it wasn't really easy since he had never encountered a beautiful person like her who was able to be this skilled. She helped him back up and gave him his crutches, which he grabbed immediately to balance himself.
Kson: "It's not a problem at all. Say, you do look familiar... Do I know you by any chance? Are you perhaps the son of Riku Misaki?"
Lukas's eyes widen in shock.
Lukas: "H-How did you know..?"
Kson: "In truth, my father knew yours before he left Japan. But however I didn't expect to see you out here Lukas Misaki."
Lukas: "Look... I get that you helped me and you know my family.. But I need to head back home before I end up in more trouble so..."
He then began to move away from Kson.
Kson: "You know there was something that was promised between our fathers. I feel like I should let you know."
He then stopped to look at her, confused on what she would talk about.
Lukas: "I understand if our fathers had gotten along but... I wanted nothing to do with my father..."
Kson: "Why that is good because, this should clear things up. Have you ever heard of arranged marriages?"
Lukas: "Yes...?"
Kson: "Well... We are in one."
Lukas blinked a few times until finally realizing what she meant. This made his face turn really red.
Lukas: "W-W-We are getting m-m-m-m-married!?"
Kson: "Well yes.. but- Lukas!"
Before she could even continue, he passed out from this revelation and she managed to grab him in time. She then decided to give him a piggyback to get him back since she already knew where he lived all because of Zentreya's information.
Kson: "Well, this is one hell of a start..."
She continued her walk until ending up in front of the house, knocking on the door. She waited a few seconds until it opened to reveal Zai.
Sonzai: "Why hello there. What brings you to-"
He then just notices Lukas on Kson's back.
Sonzai: "Why is he asleep?"
Kson: "I will explain everything the next time I visit, but for now, can you get him to rest up? I want to talk to him again tomorrow."
Sonzai: "Of course, just carry him to the couch and I will let him wake up at his own pace."
She then nods, putting him on the couch as she quickly leaves, saying farewell to Zai.
