She held a sword larger than she was
Ange I was sent here to protect you
That was the beginning
I am an angel
Meeting this girl was enough to smash Fujita Mutsuki’s harmony to pieces
Adolescent Adam Chapter 2 - Micha and Ange
Pant PantAh
Mutsuki had never imagined it would be this difficult to walk with his legs weak from fear It felt like he had sat on his legs for hours on end so he was not even sure he was really standing He unsteadily headed home while leaning on nearby telephone poles and guardrails The way home normally took less than fifteen minutes but it felt horribly long now
(Whatwas that )
His head was spinning and he felt sick It felt like all of his blood was flowing backwards He felt a chill yet could not stop sweating and his head was filled with nothing but heat
He could only imagine the events in front of the train station had been a dream First a car had stood up and started to walk and then the fountain’s water had turned blood red Finally a girl
had appeared out of nowhere and sliced a boy in two
However
He gently held his right eye
A mirror was attached to a nearby guardrail to give a view around the corner so he hesitantly peered into it He saw his own face there but his right eye was proof that those events had been all too real It was black A black smooth object was located where his eyeball should have been It looked like a nontransparent plastic panel had been placed over the eye
And yet he knew better than anyone that he was looking at his own eye The covered eye had no pupil but the faint outline of the iris was there and he was able to see through that spot
His right eye could see and his sight was much clearer than before
He tried covering his left eye but that only closed off a bit on the left side of his vision
It truly had not been a dream That scared him so he looked down at his upper arms legs and inside his clothes He found no injuries
There were no red marks There was no sign of any kind of burns
Fwah Ahahh
The girl calling herself an angel grew wings from her back to prove her claim
Instead of the white wings told of in legends they were made of dull blue flames Still they were not actually burning and they moved in accordance with her will They bent just like wings and wrapped around Mutsuki as he was pinned to the wall He screamed as the blue flames burned him but Ange maintained a look of composure
Calm down An angel’s flames are a purifying light You shouldn’t even feel warm I’m only getting rid of the Succubi
Once she mentioned it he realized the flames were not even hot as if they were a mere illusion
However that was not enough to calm Mutsuki’s panic There was no way he could relax while flames enveloped him
Instead of burning him the flames burned the black liquid soaking his clothes and turned it to ash
The liquid fell away freeing Mutsuki’s body from the wall
He fell into the wall fountain below him The flames seemed to affect normal water too because it began to boil into steam but even amid the oppressive steam the flames showed no sign of weakening How pathetic
The angel girl named Ange watched in obvious exasperation as he flailed around in the water
But when he looked up in search of help his right eye met her blue eyes
She quickly looked away
Except for the Serpent’s Eye it seems
She faced the side revealing a cheek that was so flushed it was noticeable even in the light of the setting sun
Ange of the Double Flame hm
A moment later her face stiffened at a voice
The voice was Lucia’s He had supposedly been sliced in two but he looked entirely unharmed as he sat on the hood of the scrap metal that had been the Porsche
Even among the angels born from the purifying light of flames your flames were much hotter than normal You are the maiden born from blue flames of 2000 degreesIs that big thing the rumored Prominence I’m glad to hear I’m so famous
The girl clicked her tongue turned around and pointed her large sword at the boy
Even if it was hollow except for the core of support in the center the panel of metal was wider than she was but she easily swung it around in one hand It was an unbelievable sight
The slightly damp-looking black surface was made of metal and covered in the luster of a black pearl It looked just as gorgeous as the Japanese swords that were given as deep a shine as platinum despite being made of steel Just looking at it was enough to feel the solemn weight of the metal inside Oh god What a pain
Lucia jumped down from the hood
He pulled out the large red scythe stabbed into the vehicle His arms were far skinnier than
Mutsuki’s yet he not only easily lifted the giant scythe but he tore apart the Porsche’s red body like it was made of paper
They both seemed to possess the same mysterious and abnormal power
—————
All Mutsuki could tell was that they were enemies
The giant sword named Prominence sliced through the air and the two of them collided
Gh
The massive sword was going to strike the long scythe The sword had more weight so it would push the scythe back
However the boy ducked down before the blade arrived dodged the slash and sent the force of his blow to the other end of his weapon He sent the handle toward the girl’s torso
The high-speed exchange did not even last two full seconds Mutsuki’s eyes caught up but only after the girl used the momentum of her charge to jump away from the boy and avoid the scythe handle
Mutsuki was not even given time to gasp before the exchange accelerated When Lucia’s fingertips danced like he was waving a conductor’s baton the pieces of black water scattered across the ground formed hands and assaulted the angel Didn’t you know
The battle was over
An angel’s body cannot be defiled
The liquid demons approaching the girl turned to ash the instant they arrived within a certain area around her
Lucia’s eyes grew wide because the girl’s body was now surrounded by blue flames so thin they were nearly invisible The film of fire had created an inviolable barrier around her
A Corona
The boy’s shock created a brief opening In that instant Ange ran right up to the boy while protected by her burning fire
She unleashed a full swing of her great sword
Lucia somehow managed to catch it on his scythe but his slender body was launched several dozen meters as if a large truck had hit him
Dammit You really are strong
Despite his surprise Lucia placed his feet on a building’s wall to recover However he did not
immediately make a counterattack The film of blue fire that had burned the black water had spread as the angel approached and had scorched the boy’s beautiful face
His constant thin smile vanished for just a moment and his eyebrows twitched but he soon
giggled and the smile returned
Okay looks like I’m poorly matched against an angel
He jumped to the building rooftop with smoke still rising from him
Heh heh
That’s a lovely eye Mutsuki You can violate me more thoroughly later okay
After a parting wink he turned around and left
Wait Oh you Micha will be here soon so stay put
That was all Ange said before pursuing the boy
Mutsuki had no idea what to find strange anymore as the red-haired girl brushed aside gravity to jump on top of the six-story building with that mass of metal in hand
(Should I really have run away )
Mutsuki hurried home while hiding his right eye
(She told me to wait for someone named Micha but I couldn’t stay when people started gathering there Besides who knows if I can even trust that Ange girl)
He made excuses for his inability to do anything but run from that bizarre situation
