Back in the time when Suisei High School wasn't isolated by barriers yet, Kohana came to that place again because she was bored with her school's learning exhibition and wanted to buy some snacks that she hadn't tasted yesterday.
Kohana came to Suisei High School wearing a female sailor outfit and the same fox mask. She visited the place secretly without telling Tenku or Setsuka. Kohana intends to surprise the two. But before that, the little girl wanted to buy a lot of snacks first.
When Kohana was walking around the school grounds with many snacks in her hand, she was startled after seeing a large portal suddenly appear in the sky. Kohana quickly ran away from the place. Sure enough, seven large objects fell not far from where she was before and destroyed the surroundings from the impact.
"What's that?" Kohana said in a trembling voice, and she subconsciously dropped the snack in her hand. She saw seven gigantic monsters with axes in their hands. After that, everyone nearby screamed in fear and ran around in panic.
The monsters moved and attacked the people around them. Kohana reflexively ran and tried to leave the place as soon as possible. After she ran a few steps, Kohana heard hundreds of objects fall to the ground again.
Kohana kept running with all her might and didn't want to look back. She knew that everything that fell from the sky was a monster and they were dangerous.
"I have to call big brother! No, it's dangerous for him! I better ask big sister to help me!" Kohana took out her smartphone and quickly contacted Setsuka.
Initially, the first person in Kohana's mind to ask for help was Tenku. But she quickly dispelled that thought because she didn't want to endanger Tenku. Even though Kohana didn't know what kind of monster it was, she was sure it was powerful and terrifying.
Kohana knows that Tenku is strong, but she thinks Setsuka is stronger than him. Besides that, her older sister had a best friend that was no weaker than her. Therefore, Kohana decided to call Setsuka instead of Tenku. She didn't have to wait long because her older sister quickly received her call.
"Big sister! Please help me... kyaaaaa!" Kohana said in a trembling voice and wanted to ask Setsuka to come to her location immediately. But she tripped and dropped her smartphone before she could finish her sentence.
[Kohana! Kohana! Answer me, Kohana!]
Setsuka's voice came from her smartphone, but Kohana couldn't respond because it fell far away. She tried to stand up but felt pain in her legs and arms. When she checked her body, she saw her knees and elbows bleeding. Kohana cried when she saw that. She was a crybaby when she saw blood, especially in her body.
Kohana walked and wanted to pick up her smartphone, which had fallen quite far from her. But then, a few people suddenly ran before her, trampling it hard.
Crack!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKohana panicked when she saw that. She quickly took her smartphone and immediately left the place. Kohana is confused about where to go because monsters are roaming around her. In addition, the distance from her location to the school building is still quite far. After thinking for a while, she hid inside a dumpster.
"My smartphone is broken. I can't ask my big sister to pick me up. Sob... sob..." Kohana looked at her shattered smartphone and burst into tears.
"Aarrghhh!"
"Help me!"
"Get away from me, you ugly monster!"
While hiding in the dumpster, Kohana heard the screams of people being attacked by the monsters, which frightened her. She stayed inside that place for quite a while because she didn't dare to come out. Kohana hopes that someone will save her.
"Big brother! Big sister! I'm scared! Please help me... sob... sob..." Kohana continued to cry but suddenly covered her mouth with her hands when she heard loud footsteps coming from outside.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Kohana's body trembled with fear. She knew that humans wouldn't have the sound of footsteps like that. So the creature walking near where she was hiding was a monster. Kohana held her breath and tried not to make a sound. Then the footsteps suddenly disappeared.
The little girl thought the monster had left and removed the hand covering her mouth. But before Kohana could breathe a sigh of relief, the dumpster suddenly flew up and fell hard to the ground until it shattered.
Boom!
"Aaargggghhhh!" Kohana bounced off and rolled on the ground. She felt pain because the impact added to the wound in her body. Afterward, Kohana heard the sound of footsteps approaching her.
Kohana turned her eyes toward the source of the sound and was frightened when she saw an Orc coming at her while grinning hideously.
"No... no... don't come near me!" Kohana said frantically, and tears rolled from her eyes. She crawled on her injured body to keep her distance from the monster, but what she did was in vain. Kohana looks like a caterpillar trying to escape from a bird.
"Help me, big brother! I'm scared! I'm scared!" Kohana said in fear and kept on crawling with all her might. When she looked back, she was surprised that the Orc had disappeared. But then something big landed right in front of her.
Boom!
"Kyaaaaa!" Kohana closed her eyes as a lot of dust flew toward her. Then she opened her eyes and trembled violently because the Orc had appeared before her.
"No! I have to get out of here! I have to get away from that monster!" Kohana wanted to escape that place, but her tiny body was hard to move because she had so many wounds. The Orc stretched out its large hand and poked Kohana's body.
"Aaaaaaaahhhhh!" Kohana was blown away and rolled on the ground. She felt that several bones in her body were broken.
"It hurts! Help me, big brother! Help me, big sister!" Kohana cried out in fear, but she couldn't move in her current state.
The Orc strolled closer to Kohana, and the monster's smile was like a nightmare for the little girl. That monster lifted Kohana's petite body and opened its jaws wide. The Orc slowly brought her to its mouth and intended to eat her. Kohana struggled to escape the monster's hand, but her efforts were useless.
"Big brother!"
"Big sister!"
"Please help me!"
Kohana screamed with all her might, but her voice became inaudible at the end.
"Big brother." Kohana said those words before her body completely entered the Orc's mouth.
She hoped that Tenku would save her again, just like he had done in the past. Kohana knew it was impossible in her current situation, but she still wanted to do it. She slowly closed her eyes and resigned herself to her fate. But then the little girl felt something was off.
Kohana should have entered the Orc's stomach by now, and the atmosphere around her should be pitch black. But she could still see the light from the slits of her closed eyes. Kohana worked up the courage to open her eyes and was taken aback. She wasn't in a monster's stomach now but in the arms of the man she admired and loved. When she found out about that, tears flowed from Kohana's eyes.
"I'm sorry for coming late." Tenku said softly. He felt distressed when he saw Kohana's condition.
Kohana was a lively and active little girl, but now she looks frail and helpless in her arms. Tenku was furious at the monsters and the people who sent them to Suisei High School.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf Tenku had arrived at that place even a little late, Kohana might have already been digested in the Orc's stomach. Luckily he quickly unleashed his divine consciousness to the max after exiting the school building. Because of that, Tenku was able to find Kohana quickly. It drained his spiritual power significantly and made him dizzy, but he didn't care. The most important thing for him is Kohana's safety.
"Big brother." Kohana said weakly. Then she closed her eyes and lost consciousness with a smile. The little girl was happy because Tenku came for her when she was in danger. She felt like a princess who a prince saved. Even though it was only her last dream, she was happy because it was beautiful.
Tenku quickly checked her space pocket and took out a small bottle with a beautiful ornament. He didn't have any potions or elixirs, but he had something even more potent in store. That thing was Holy Water. Tenku had used almost all of it in Beijing, but he was sure half a drop was still left in the vial. It was enough to treat Kohana.
He gently opened Kohana's tiny mouth and dripped half a drop of Holy Water into it. The little girl's body was enveloped in light, and the wounds on her body slowly healed. The healing process took longer than usual because it only used a little holy water.
"Sleep for a bit. When you wake up, everything will be fine." Tenku whispered to Kohana and stroked her hair slowly. He took out his smartphone and sent Setsuka a message.
Tenku asked her to come to his location and pick up Kohana. He was sure that Setsuka had an elixir or potion in her space pocket because she was the daughter of Fuyushima Temple. Tenku wants Setsuka to give that to Kohana so that the healing process will be faster. As usual, Tenku received a reply from Setsuka in less than a minute.
[I'll be there soon!]
Tenku kept his smartphone and waited for Setsuka at that place. Many low-level monsters came at him, but their heads exploded before they could take a step closer. Without him knowing it, Tenku had killed hundreds of monsters, and some of them were Wyverns and Cactus Golems.
Not long after, Setsuka and Kaede came in with sweat drenching their faces and out of breath. They were shocked when they saw piles of monster corpses around Tenku, but their faces changed drastically when they saw a little girl in his arms.
"Kohana!"
"Kohana!"
The two of them screamed when they saw Kohana covered in blood.
"What happened to her? Why is her condition like this?" Setsuka looked at Tenku and asked frantically. Afterward, Tenku explained briefly what had happened to Kohana.
Setsuka and Kaede's faces turned pale, and they cried when they heard about the terrible incident that had happened to Kohana.
"You don't need to worry. Kohana is fine now. I have healed most of her wounds. But you should give her an elixir or potion so she can recover more quickly." Tenku tried to calm the two girls down.
"Thank you, Tenku. You have saved Kohana again. I will immediately give the elixir to her!" Setsuka felt relieved after hearing Tenku's explanation. She and Kaede bowed their heads to him.
"You don't need to thank me. I had to do that because I couldn't see Kohana get hurt. Then please take him back to the school building and treat him. I have to go now." Tenku handed Kohana in her arms to Setsuka.
"Huh? Where do you want to go? Aren't you coming back with us?" Setsuka received Kohana from Tenku and looked at him in confusion.
"No. I can't go back with you because I have to... kill!" Tenku coldly said and manifested his Phantasmal Object. He fired the Golden Revolver in circles, and the orcs approaching them died instantly. After that, he shot out at a terrifying speed, leaving the two girls dumbfounded.
