Chapter 9
~Next Day~
It was early in the morning as Hibari was roaming around the city with Hibird on his shoulder. Last night he had his fight with Archer and met a strange man afterwards. Knowing this, he took extra measures and started patrolling early in the mornings and late at night.
As he walked around, he felt as if he was being watched closely but he couldn't see the one responsible. However, that was the least of his problems. While he was walking around, Hibari saw a single figure standing alone at the park near the intersection road.
"So you're here once more."
"Mhm. Nice to meet you again, Hibari-san."
As Illya stood before Hibari, she quickly walked towards a bench and sat down. When her eyes gazed upon Hibari, once more, she was thinking to herself. She found the boy to be interesting upon their first meeting. However, before she could say anything, Hibari was the first to speak up.
"Are you apart of this war happening on my territory?"
One question. That one question told Illya a lot about what type of person Hibari was. A mage wouldn't even think of asking that question to anyone, since normal people aren't supposed to be aware of this. However, Hibari asked a question that basically told her that he was involved in the Holy Grail War.
Did he slip up? Was he just a novice mage? Those questions filled Illya's head. However, as she looked at him, she could tell one thing for sure. This guy isn't dumb. In all honesty, she's probably the most suspicious person in his eyes.
"Would you even believe me if I denied?"
"A war just happens to occur in my territory and you, someone new here, just so happens to arrive when said war is going on. Not to mention, i've been running into carnivores left and right after recently finding out my part in this."
"Geez. You sure are quick on the uptake. Yes I am part of this war, but if you're wondering if i'm causing trouble in the city and near your school then you can scratch me off your suspect list. I allow Berserker to rampage only outside of the city."
Hibari merely looked at Illya. Meanwhile, the girl in question was feeling a bit uncomfortable in his gaze. It was a gaze that made her feel like Hibari was looking deep into her soul. While this happened, Hibari merely turned around as he began to walk off.
"Where are you going?"
"You don't cause trouble in my territory despite having the means to do so. Not to mention, that you made sure to keep it that way. I guess I can consider you a guest under my protection. However, should you cause any trouble in my territory, i'll bite you to death."
Having said that, Hibari began to walk Homurahara Academy. As this happened, he still felt as if he was being watched, yet he didn't feel bothered by it. Meanwhile, Illya stared at Hibari's back as he walked away. For some reason, she wanted to reach out to him. She didn't want him to leave. Once more, she couldn't help but make a comparison between Hibari and him.
"Why? They have their differences, yet I can't help but see the similarities between them."
~With Hibari~
After arriving to school, Hibari walked around to make sure everything was in order. While the Disciplinary Committee was roaming about the school, Hibari was going to head to the roof until he was stopped.
"Hibari!!!!"
"What do you want, Sasagawa Ryohei?"
"I've heard that you've been patrolling longer than usual. If that's the case, there's some danger out there right? It'll be perfect to find the culprit and practice my boxing on them!!!!! To the li- where are you going?!"
"I hate crowding around."
"Oi, Hibari!!!!! Fine, just one thing. Matou has been acting strangely so be careful around him! You hear me?! Hibari!!!!!!"
~On the rooftop~
Hibari was lying on his back as he looked at the sky. He saw the clouds drifting away so freely. As a yawn escaped his lips, he said one thing.
"I never thought you'd follow me to school, Ookami-san."
"............"
After being noticed by his Master, Avenger growled and refused to show itself just yet. Unknown to Hibari, the wolf walked in a circle a few times before lying down behind him. As the wolf looked at the sky, he glanced at Hibari a few times.
"He shows know concern for nothing except his territory and his freedom, yet he's willing to safeguard any people here as long as they don't screw up the order he's maintaining. He acts as he pleases and no one can stop him. As for why I followed him....ever since he spoke to that man yesterday and I saw his own pack.......I felt my interest getting the better of me."
Just as Avenger was thinking to itself, both Hibari's eyes and its own opened widely as it felt the school shaking. While Avenger finally revealed itself, it saw Hibari looking around the school. A look of absolute irritation fell upon his face as he saw what was happening.
"To attack my territory so openly and with so many herbivores inside as well..........i'll bite them to death."
Hibari stood up as he walked inside of the school. As this happened, Avenger made itself invisible as it followed Hibari. When Hibari walked inside of the school, he suddenly found it a bit difficult to breathe. However, he didn't have time to rest, not while his territory was under attack. As he looked ahead, he saw something within the halls of the school.
"No trespassers allowed. Not to mention that i'm in a bad mood. I'll bite you to de-"
"I....won't stop!!!! To the limit!!!!!!!"
Before Hibari could charge at the enemies ahead, he heard the sound of Ryohei's voice. He had two options before him. Destroy the enemies in front of him and possibly letting the herbivore screaming out die. Or he could go rescue said herbivore.
"The last thing I want is a corpse loitering around my territory. Besides......"
Just as the skeleton soldiers lunged forward, Avenger suddenly charged towards them with incredible speed. While the headless rider would tear apart the soldiers with the hooks in his hands, the wolf would just bite down on them or claw at the creatures with ease. Seeing this, Hibari smirked as he looked at his servant.
"Looks like someone is raring to go. Do as you please Ookami-san. As for me......it looks like i'll have to keep the order in this place."
~Meanwhile~
"It hurts. It hurts so much, but I can't fall here. To the limit!!!!!"
Inside of a classroom stood one student. As Ryohei was breathing heavily, fists raised and blood escaping from his head, he looked around as he saw the Disciplinary Committee fallen and on the ground as foam escaped from their mouths. As Ryohei looked forward, he saw several skeletal warriors standing before him.
"There's so many of them, but....if I can't survive here, I don't deserve to be captain of the Boxing Club. To the limi-"
Before he can take a step forward, Ryohei fell to the ground. Slowly his vision was beginning to become a bit blurry. As the skeletal warriors approached him, he was ashamed of how weak he was. He braced himself for pain, but was surprised when he wasn't attacked.
"So you were here guarding the other members. I hate being in someone's debt. Fine then, i'll move you to a safer location after I finish taking care of these skinless herbivores."
As Ryohei looked forward, he saw several of the Dragon Tooth Warriors on the ground and broken apart. When he looked upwards, a smile appeared on his face. Just before he lost consciousness, he said one thing.
"Thanks for the save....Hibari-san."
"Not only is my territory under attack, but herbivores under my protection are being attacked as well....."
Hibari clenched his tonfas tightly as more Dragon Tooth Warriors walked inside of the room. When Hibari turned around, a vicious smile appeared on his face as he revealed the bracelet on his left arm.
"You lot will do for my stress relief. I'm very pissed off at the moment. Its a good thing there's a large number of you. Thinning your numbers should help ease my hunger."
As Hibari said this, a large amount of purple flames appeared once more, coating his tonfas. However, when this happened, the flames were being injected into his bracelet. Soon a bright light escaped from the stone within the bracelet. As this happened, a single creature emerged from the bracelet as Hibari glared at his foes.
"Its time to deliver punishment for those who dare to mess up the order in my territory. Its time to get to work, Roll."
