"I am a.s.suming you have some kind of special move or hidden ability? Something really special?" I ask as it is something almost every fantasy anime character like her has.
"I do. It's called Frost Requiem." She has no emotion in her voice anymore, or rather; she chooses to show none of it.
"I see." I ignore those facts and try to focus on the most important part of the plan, "How much of an effect would it have on that Demoness?"
"It will kill her if I can strike from behind. If I strike from front though, there's even a possibility that it does no effect at all." She says as she looks not at me but at the nothingness between us, "Special abilities are like that for everyone."
I see. So, that's it. We need to make sure she hits that Demoness from behind. Well I guess, by 'we', I just mean 'me'.
"Okay then." I say as I stare out the window. "I'll make sure to give you the chance to hit her from behind. Don't miss it."
My plan was simply to use whatever special ability she has in the best way possible and hope for that to be enough. What? Did you expect me to be some kind of Ethan Kales who would come up with plans that can take down people stronger than him like it's a piece of cake? Well, I am not. I am an ordinary human being with good looks, the perfect recipe for a weak-a.s.s sucky anime protagonist. That's who I am.
And now that I'm done discussing the plan, there's something else that I need to do.
"Roswaisa!" I call out to her and she, who had also started looking out the windows, looks back at me, with the same cold expression as before. "I just wanted to clear something up before we leave."
*****
I stand up and raise my hand enough for my palm to face her just like she has done towards me and say,
"So there's no way I'm going out easy."
My raised hand, which is my right hand, holds a card. This card may look like an ordinary one, but it's actually Exodia from Yu-Gi-Oh!
Okay, no, it's not. But it's still pretty awesome!
"Now! Sphinx!"
As I shout that out, a mythical creature with the body of a lion, wings of a large bird and the head of a human comes out. This creature was known in Greek Mythology as Sphinx.
Before anyone asks if this can be seen by an ordinary human being? No.
Also before anyone asks if this is just a Yu-Gi-Oh card? No. This is what many might call a Eunion Card, or simply know as Monster Summoning Card.
And before anyone asks if this is just a card version of Pokémon? No. Anyway, it does just as the name suggests, it summons monsters to do the summoner's bidding.
And before anyone asks if this is just a combination of Pokémon games and Yu-Gi-Oh anime? Yes. What about it? There's nothing wrong with that.
"Kill that woman!" I yell my command to the monster I summoned.
"Pfft!" she laughs in a pretty demeaning way. "You don't really expect a mere monster to defeat me, do you?"
Who wants to defeat you? I am just here to buy time. Did you already forget that? I guess you did since you are trying to ignore us and go in the direction of Irium and Roswaisa. Too bad, someone like this Sphinx is a master at not letting something like that happen.
"What?" She yells in surprise as the Sphinx jumps right at her and even as she tries to get away, it follows her to no end, trying to block her path. "What the heck is with this thing!?"
"Foolish woman!" I say with a smirk on my face, "Don't go ignoring a mythical creature! You have absolutely no idea the extent to which that hurts its pride!"
*****
"And what's that?" With a little bit of surprise breaking up her demeanor, her voice still remains as cold as it can be towards me.
"Hah!" I sigh.
"We don't have much time to waste here." She urges me to hurry up, probably having a little more than visible on the surface reasons for doing so.
"Fine then, I'll say it." I sigh again and take a deep breath, "Roswaisa, I love you!"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"What kind of sick joke is that?" she says as she looks at the ground.
"If I were joking, I'd be making anime references right now." I say in a surprisingly calm tone.
"…"
"…"
"How can that possibly be?" she says as she tightens her fists.
"I guess I'll tell you. The reason I kissed you isn't because I wanted to get back a little on Danny, it was because I wanted to use that excuse to … just kiss you." I confess with a calm and unwavering voice, which I don't completely understand the root cause for myself. "And that, obviously, was because I was in love with you ever since then."
"…"
"…"
"You're lying." She says in an irritated voice while clicking her tongue.
"Nope! I'm telling the truth." I continue with my tone of voice unchanging, "I was just being a tsundere all this time, and well, seeing from how hard this is for you to swallow; I think I did a d.a.m.n good job."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"Let's go. Danny's life could be in danger right now." she says and puts a leg on the window, then uses it to jump out of it.
"Yes, let's go." I reply and repeat the process.
After we are both out of the building we were hiding in, she doesn't move an inch, as if waiting for something.
"Find a high place from where you can attack at her back and be sure to not come into her line of sight if you can." I tell her and start running towards where Danny and Aknin Vielos were when we left.
"And one more thing before I leave," I stop and look back and say in a slightly fl.u.s.tered voice, "It was love at first sight."
I say that, and without waiting for any reply, I start running again.
