Realizer of Death : The Reaper



"This is… What happened to this place? Where did Mount Fuji go?" One of the Realizers spoke and looked around.

"Shouldn't Mount Fuji be over there? Then why has it disappeared now?" Another Realizer added while pointing his finger in the direction of Mt. Fuji.

They still couldn't believe what they had seen. Besides those Realizers, Hideo and Homura were also shocked after discovering that scene.

"What you see is Mount Fuji. It seemed that there had been an intense battle here, changing the terrain in this area. What do you think, Hideo?" Homura said with a dignified voice. Then he turned his eyes to Hideo Fuyushima.

"What!?" The Realizers were shocked and returned to their senses after hearing Homura's voice. They looked at Hideo and waited for his answer.

"Yes. I don't know who is fighting in this place and who has the power to level Mount Fuji. I thought this could be a battle between humans against humans, monsters against humans, or monsters against monsters.

But I believe that someone who can wreak havoc like this, whether a monster or a human, should at least have the strength of a Realizer at the star cluster phase or a sixth-level monster.

But you still don't know where the thunderstorm came from. I feel that it is not the ability of the Ikazuchi clan. Therefore, we must investigate it carefully and properly." Hideo said seriously.

The Ikazuchi clan is one of the strongest Realizer groups in Japan, and their special ability is controlling thunder.

The Realizers held their breath after hearing Hideo's explanation. They did not expect such powerful people to appear in Tokyo and fight such a great battle that Mount Fuji would be leveled to the ground.

"You are right. This is not the ability of the Ikazuchi clan. After all, they would ask permission from us or the organization if they wanted to have a big battle in this place.

Most importantly, I had fought the head of the Ikazuchi clan, and the thunderstorm in this place was far more terrifying than him. Especially the few minutes before the lightning curtain that covered this area disappeared. I felt a tremendous power that chilled my spine." Homura responded to Hideo's words, and his face was solemn.

"Yes. I feel it too. I've also fought against the head of the Ikazuchi clan. He would not be able to create a thunderstorm as powerful as this. Only a Realizer above the star cluster phase could create this kind of phenomenon." Hideo nodded in agreement with Homura.

His words left the Realizers speechless. The phase above the star cluster was heliocentric; a person possessing such power was a legend and could no longer be considered human.

"Alright. We'd better not dwell on that matter for the time being. The thunderstorm has dissipated, and I believe the battle here is over. Whether that person is injured, dead, or has left the area, we must investigate immediately.

We can't waste more time as snow might fill this area and cover up the clues." Hideo said to the Realizers around him.

"Yes, Mr. Hideo is right. We need to inspect this entire area and find any clues quickly. But you must be careful and immediately tell us if you find something." The leader of the Realizers from the Holy Union said.

The other Realizers agreed with his words, and they divided their groups. Afterward, they split up to explore and inspect the area. Homura, his wife, and the people from the Natsukawa family were going to investigate Mount Fuji because that place was the center of the phenomenon and the most dangerous.

Meanwhile, Hideo was looking in a certain direction in the sky. He felt a faint presence, but it quickly disappeared when he tried to confirm it.

"What are you looking at?" Koyuki asked after finding her husband staring up at the sky.

"It's nothing. Let's check on the other side of Mt. Fuji." Hideo shook his head and smiled at his wife. After that, they and the Realizers from Fuyushima Temple also moved toward Mt. Fuji and started their investigation.

***

At the same time, Setsuka sneaks out of the Fuyushima temple together with Kaede. When she found out that a terrible thunderstorm had appeared on Mount Fuji and Tenku sent a message that he was in that place, Setsuka was worried. She wanted to go to that location with the Realizers from Fuyushima Temple, but her father and mother forbade her and told her to stay home.

Setsuka reluctantly obeyed her parents' words. But it only lasted until midnight. The longer Setsuka stayed in her room, the more restless her heart became. Thus, she decides to go to Tenku's apartment after discovering that the lightning storm on Mt. Fuji has disappeared.

Her intuition told her that if she went to Mt. Fuji now, Setsuka wouldn't run into Tenku. Therefore she went to his residence. Initially, Setsuka wanted to go alone to Tenku's apartment. But Kaede insisted on accompanying her because she couldn't let her best friend walk alone in the middle of the night. It is very dangerous for a woman.

Kaede and Setsuka didn't take long to reach their destination. The two walked slowly while paying attention to the situation around them.

Setsuka had to ensure no one around the place saw her coming since she didn't cover her face. She rushed out of the house wearing a thick jacket and no mask. Therefore, Setsuka didn't want anyone to see her.

Besides, Setsuka doesn't know whether Tenku has returned or not. She thought she would find Tenku on the streets in the neighborhood. Setsuka walked towards Tenku's apartment, and Kaede followed behind him.

When Setsuka entered the front yard of the apartment, her face changed because she saw a sword falling on her. She quickly manifested her Phantasmal Object and repelled the attack.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

Setsuka clashed her sword against the attacker several times in the blink of an eye, and her face became serious. She felt that the person who suddenly slashed at her was extremely strong. Setsuka quickly moved away from that place, and that person also kept a distance from her.

"Sesuka! Are you okay!?" Kaede said worriedly. She had already manifested her Phantasmal Object and was ready to fight.

"I'm fine. Be careful. That person is strong." Setsuka warned, and Kaede nodded in response. Not long after, they heard the melodious voice of a girl and footsteps approaching them.

"Who are you? Why did you enter the apartment area secretly in the middle of the night? Do you intend to commit a crime in this place?" The girl said indifferently.

Kaede and Setsuka couldn't see the girl because the darkness covered her. But they were shocked for a different reason after seeing the person who attacked them. She is a beautiful girl with straight, shiny black hair and looks elegant. That person was Wang Ruyue, and she walked up to them gracefully.

When Wang Ruyue was waiting for Tenku in the living room of her grandfather's apartment, she heard footsteps outside. She thought people who sneaked in in the middle of the night were criminals. Therefore, Wang Ruyue directly attacked Setsuka without asking.

Kaede was mesmerized when she saw that Wang Ruyue's temperament and appearance were no less than her best friend's. In contrast, Setsuka's face darkened when she saw the girl who attacked her.

"Are you Wang Ruyue?" Setsuka asked seriously. She recognized the person in front of her.

After Setsuka saw Tenku with the two girls in the video report about the space collapse in Beijing, she quickly found out about them. With the power of the Fuyushima Temple and the help from the Holy Union, Setsuka easily obtained information about Wang Ruyue and Huang Yuxin. Moreover, the two girls were quite famous in Beijing.

On the other hand, Kaede raised her eyebrows because she sensed the mood swings from her best friend. He saw that Setsuka's expression turned gloomy when he saw Wang Ruyue.

"Huh? Who are you? Why do you know me?" Wang Ruyue was surprised when she heard Setsuka's words. Even though she had come to Japan in the past, this was her first time visiting her grandfather's apartment. Wang Ruyue was sure that she had never met Setsuka.

"I don't know you and don't want to get to know you! More importantly, what are you doing in this apartment at this hour!?" Setsuka said with a cold face and had no intention of answering Wang Ruyue's question. She had been burning with jealousy after seeing a girl coming out of Tenku's apartment in the middle of the night. Setsuka thought that something immoral had happened between the two.

"Ah! I know who you are. You are Setsuka Fuyushima, right? I didn't expect to meet you here. You don't need to know what I do in this apartment because it's not your business." Wang Ruyue smiled playfully after knowing her identity.

At first, she didn't recognize Setsuka because she had only briefly looked at her photo. Besides, it was quite dark now, and Wang Ruyue did not see her face clearly. But after feeling jealous of the girl's words, Wang Ruyue was sure that the person she talked to was Setsuka Fuyushima.

Wang Ruyue had also searched for information about her love rival. She used the Wang family and her organization in Beijing to help her find out about Setsuka, and she quickly got her data.

Wang Ruyu was a little shocked when she discovered the information about Setsuka. But then she smiled fearlessly because she felt she was not inferior to her, be it looks or background.

"That is my business too!" Setsuka was irritated when she saw Wang Ruyue's smile. Then she moved and charged toward the girl.

"Wait, Setsuka!" Kaede wanted to stop Setsuka because she didn't want her best friend to make a scene in that place. But she was too late because Setsuka had left her and wouldn't listen to her.

"Come to me! I wonder how strong the daughter from Fuyushima Temple is!" Wang Ruyu said provocatively. Her face was serious as she could feel that Setsuka was quite strong after their exchange. Although she is a cultivator other than a Realizer, Setsuka also practices martial arts passed down from Fuyushima Temple.

Setsuka quickly appeared in front of her opponent and slashed her sword. Wang Ruyue narrowed her eyes and blocked Setsuka's attack with her weapon. The two fought using their Phantasmal Objects.

Clank! Clank! Clank!

The two girls clashed their swords again and then kept their distance. Wang Ruyue and Setsuka both looked at their hands. One was numb from being hit by the cold, and the other was trembling from the heavy and swift slashes.

"I have to beat that thieving cat!"

"I have to beat her!"

Setsuka and Wang Ruyue said simultaneously.

"Phantasmal Release..."

WINTER QUEEN

MOON RABBIT POSSESSION

They used their Phantasmal Object abilities. Setsuka's hair turned bluish with a crown of ice atop her head, while Wang Ruyue's hair became silver.

The two girls compressed the genesis power in their Phantasmal Objects and charged at the same time. Wang Ruyue and Setsuka closed their distance instantly and slashed their swords. But before their weapons could clash, a huge centipede appeared between them and blocked their attacks.

Clank!

Clank!

"Huh!?"

"What!?"

Wang Ruyue and Setsuka were shocked when they saw that.

"What are you two doing? Why are you fighting here? Do you want to destroy my apartment?" A boy spoke from the darkness of the night street, and the two girls quickly averted their eyes as they were familiar with that voice.

"Tenku!"
