24 Day Two of Extreme Not-So-Ordinary Ordinary Day (1/2)

-Day Two-

-Early Morning, Human Village-

-??? POV-​

I hear the raindrops fall down on my Parasol.

'It can even block the rain, I wonder if it can block anything else.'

I think while looking at it.

'But let's do it on another occasion, I have more important appointment to attend to.'

I concluded my though and continue walking leisurely on the street, the Human Village street to be specific.

I looked around.

Few Humans are walking around in this rain, which is good; less walking fertilizer in my view is a good thing.

'It's a shame that my sunflowers will wither when the winter comes, but that's nature after all, and besides, there's another flower that will bloom in winter, there's no need to feel bad about it.'

I keep walking to my destination with that though in mind.

”…Hmm?”

After some time, I notice something ahead of me.

A human.

A male human teenager.

He's shorter than me and doesn't have any umbrella or anything to cover from the rain, resulting in his entire body to be soaked by it.

'Why is he walking normally in this rain? Isn't human normally run to cover when they are in the rain? And why is he walking while closing his eyes? Is he perhaps mentally retarded?' I curiously think.

As we getting closer I sense the magical item that he wears.

'A magical item? Not just one either, he wear a lot of them. A magician? Not the Youkai kin, just the human one.'

Since we just passing by and he's not doing anything to me, I opt to just ignore him and continuing my walk.

….But then, when we are almost walked crossing each other, I feel something.

'…this feeling…'

I stop and look at him while he walked pass me.

'…It feels just like…me?'

I decided to satisfy my curiosity.

I turn and looking at his back.

”Wait.” I said.

He immediately stopped.

For a few second, I waited, waited for him to turn around to face me, it never came, but instead I feel some kind of pointer that he's there and an old feeling from him.

An old feeling that I perfectly knew well what it is.

FEAR

”Oh my, it seems like you recognize me.” I said amusedly.

He didn't response.

I walk up to him.

Each of my steps causes his fear to grow.

I keep walking until I right behind him.

Now his fear turn into something else, something that's more delicious than that.

TERROR

”Fufu, it seems like you really recognize me.”

My chuckled make him enveloped himself with something, probably his ability.

I realize something else.

”Ah, I see, so you're using your ability to avoid the rain, but because we're crossing with each other, you attempted to make me ignore you, but you do know that it's useless right?” I said amusingly.

He still didn't respond.

”Did a cat get your tongue? Or are you perhaps frozen in terror? But all of those aren't matter with what I'm gonna do next.”

I sense that interesting feeling is coming from in front of his body, his chest, so I reach my hand toward his shoulder, to turn him around.

”Hmm? What is this?”

Somehow my hand can't get near him; it's as if it's rejecting him.

I put more power into it.

The rejection getting stronger.

More power.

It keeps getting stronger.

More power.

My hand finally getting closer to his shoulder but a second later something envelop my hand and it pull me away, I back to the start

”…Interesting” I said with amused tone.

More power.

Both the power that keep me away getting stronger.

More power.

The rain stopped hitting my Parasol.

More power.

The rain stopped in our surrounding.

More power.

The water going upward. I close my Parasol to avoid filling it with water.

More power.

I look at my surrounding; it's raining from the ground.

”Y-Youkai! It's a Youkai!!”

”Run away! Run away!”

”Kyaaaaa!!”

I hear some Human screaming while ran away from my location

”Fufu, really interesting”

I became more amused.

Much more power.

My hand slowly advancing to his shoulder.

My action causes him to create another feeling.

DESPERATION

My hand moves closer.

The surrounding becomes dry.

Closer

*thump-thump* *thump-thump* I can hear his heartbeat.

Wind start to rage.

Closer

Dirt and rock thrown into the air.

Closer

White light filled my vision.

Touch.

”I finally touch you, boy.”

As soon as I said that, everything is over.

My vision comes back, and then everything in the air starts going down.

I open my Parasol.

Dirt and rock raining down from the sky.

My Parasol blocked all the thing that rained down but the boy didn't put up anything, not even encasing himself with his abilities like before.

He's showered with dirt and rocks.

I look up into the sky.

Amid of this raining dirt, there's a hole up there, blue color between those dark one.

I can feel his new feeling.

RESIGNATION

*thump-thump* *thump-thump* I can still hear his heartbeat

'That's a shame, even though I starts enjoying it at the last second, he's switching to something that I hate, it's no fun if they stop struggling.'

I let go of my hand.

”Turn around.”

I ordered and he's finally complied.

I finally see his face in detail.

A tanned teenager with short straight hair.

There's dirt on his face, he's eyes also opened right now.

His eyes different like other human, it's gray.

”A blind Human?”

”Yes, that's right, Yuuka-san.”

”Fufu, so you did know me.” I smiled.

A rock suddenly his right side of his head.

He's not flinched by it but blood start trickling down from there.

'…Now, I really don't feel like to continuing this, why did Human even have these boring feeling?'

I start doing what I intended to do.

I reach my hand to his chest and opened his Yukata, revealing a green drawing is place at the center of his chest, his hearth.

Now that I'm directly seeing it, I can feel its energy, it's weak and little but it's definitely there.

”What is this?”

”A tattoo, it keeps me away from every mind and body illness.”

”…Do you know what this thing supposed to mean?”

”No, I just put it there because of its effect.”

'…Is he lying? No, he still feel resigned to his situation, he can't lie.' I though. ”I see, in that cases do come to the Garden of the Sun in the future, preferably in the Summer because that's when my Sunflower start blooming, that's also when I'm in my good mood.”

I turn away from him as new feeling start blooming from him.

Confused

”Now that my little curiosity is filled, I must continue on my original destination, but I am afraid that the Flower shop maybe closed from our little commotion so bye Human boy, try to not die until we meet again.” I said my goodbye as I walk away from him.

'Even though I said that, I have confident in him. With that kind of power, at least he will barely survive and escape from most of the strongest Youkai.'

I start taking mental note on another interesting human, next beside the Human Florist. After all it's interesting to see as how a Human can take care a flower even though they can't speak with each other.

-Me POV-​

[Lv.??? Daughter of Gaia, Kazami Yuuka]

[Impress the Daughter of Gaia]

[Reward: 20.000 AP & 20.000 IP]

I still thinking what I the system said few minutes ago and keep standing in the same spot even after Yuuka left.

”…I am alive right now, right?”

I pinch my cheek.

I barely feel it.

I punch myself in the jaw.

”Augh!” It hurt but something starts blooming inside me. ”I'M ALIVE!!” I shouted happily.

*grumble**grumble* the sky grumble.

”Yeah, yeah, fuck you too world.” I grumble back.

I start drying myself by moving away all the water from my clothes and body.

”I still can't believe I actually alive.”

'That time when I first recognize that it's Yuuka that I sense, I immediately eat those 2 pills and buy a skill.'

[Though Acceleration] = 6.000 AP

[Let the User speed his though process several time than normal.]

'Since the skill was not magical, I can safely use this while trying to safely walk cross by her with all my abilities off and I also can make quick judgment if something happen in my encounter with Yuuka. Oh god, but it proved to be for naught as she apparently called me out anyway, I thought my hearth would explode when she suddenly said 'Wait'.'

'I think there's a saying about 'There's always a price for any good thing', yeah that's exactly what happen to me just now, Gaia Tattoo is just too good of an equipment to be obtained, there must be a catch somewhere in the future.'

'Moreover, Yuuka said something about the meaning of this tattoo. The hint is there. Both of them have 'Gaia' in their name.'

The dirt rain already over a few seconds ago but I sense the original rain start pouring down again.

'Guess there's no need to worry about the future for now, Yuuka also said to meet her in the Garden of the Sun next Summer, yeah, next Summer…god dammit.'

My clothes already dried so I sensing at my surrounding. Because I goes nuts a few minute ago, the shape of the street is like someone 'scoped out' part of the ground and scatter its content in its surrounding.

'Time to fix this, I guess.'

I use Telekinesis to grab all the scattered dirt and rock that make the street un-even, I filled up the 'scoped out' area with those. After I filled up the area, I sense the street ground become bumpy.

Now I use Vector Change to move the dirt and rock in the underground more evenly and firmly.

I start sensing the street again, no more bumpy ground, Perfect.

'It's good as new, I think; I can't see so I don't know how it looks like, if they complained, they can just rebuild the road on their own, I already fixed my mess after all.'

Now that's already taken care of, time to take the road.

-Early Afternoon, Forest of Magic-​

Today is the time to give the Magicians their weekly Magical Ingredient, originally I intended to do that, even though there's 'derailment' in the middle, but it back on track few moment later.

But this…

I'm at the entrance to the forest right now, and its radiating dude.

The Forest

Somehow the Forest starts radiating some magic.

'What happened?! The deeper I go, many more trees start radiating magic, and I start sensing it when I'm on the way to Alice's House too. Coincidence? I don't think so.'

Just as I thought that, I sense something moved toward my location.

I open my eyes to check what that is.

[Lv.9 Lesser Fairy]

'Oh, it's just a Fairy.'

I start relaxing as I realized it's just a fairy.

It finally arrives to my location.

”Hehehe~, human, human, fun, hehehe~.”

'…what the fu.'

I start readying the counter effect in my Counter Armor.

”Eat, bullet, hehehe~”

I sense a Danmaku energy forming from the fairy.

'…O-kay, I guess nature is fucked if the fairy become this weird, now I'll show you guys why I didn't use Counter Armor in a Danmaku game, I consider fairy and other weakling are not on my list of 'don't make them mad by cheating in a Danmaku game', including Cirno, I maybe can walk around her, if I ever meet her someday.'

The Fairy released her Danmaku.

It's going straight to me.

It reached my Counter Armor.

And of course, just like its name, it countered it.

It shoot straight back at the Fairy, it's going faster than its original speed, Anndd…..

*Pi-chun*

'There's Fairy no more…Okay, I think I speak too soon.'

I sense another Fairy, sorry, Fairies, there's a lot of them going my way.

”I hope Alice-san is okay amid this chaos. ”

I'm hoping as I continuing my walk toward the Magician House.

-Alice's House-

I sense Alice and her dolls outside her house.

'Guess she's okay, I think.'

I walk closer to her.

”Ah, Arah-kun, are you okay?”

”Beside constant attack from the Fairies in the middle of the road, yeah, I think I'm okay, how about you Alice-san, you okay?”

”I'm fine, it's just that the Fairy going weird and start attacking my House's Door, I'm here to defend it and see what's going on.”

”So you didn't know what's going on either?”

”Yes, at first I just quietly sat in my House and then this happened, then how about you, did you know anything about this?”

”Nah, I start sensing it after I'm half way to this place, you think this thing some kind of spreading disease?”

”Spreading disease?”

I pointed the direction behind me using my thumb.

”Yeah, Fairies are related with nature right? If the Fairies turning weird then the Nature must be going weird as well, I sense the trees are emitting some kind of magical power, so I think maybe the Trees are infected with some kind of magical disease.”

”…The Trees…”

It sounded like she's thinking.

'Did she not sense anything wrong about the trees? …Oh, her House is in the clearance of the forest, there's no tree to be sensed near her House.'

I sense Alice and her Army of Doll moving past me and toward a tree behind me.

'Is she wearing a hood? Is that why she's willfully standing in this rain without any umbrella?'

”…The Tree indeed emits some kind of energy.”

”So, want to check how Marisa doing?”

I sense she turned toward me.

”…I think she's gonna be alright, we don't need to worry about her.”

”Then can we check our other Magician friend?”

”Other? You mean Patchouli from the Devil Mansion?”

”No, it's our blonde friend who likes using Mushroom for her experiment.”

I smile.

Both of us stay silent for a while.
