I finally finished setting up for the plan.
As I then looked at Kazuhisa.
"I'm done now, All that's left is on you." I said as he seemed to understand.
"Alright, I'll go do my part." He said as he left me.
after he left, I began waiting for the signal.
Now to explain what I'm doing I'd need to go back to when I bought the supplies and began crafting them.
-------- A few hours Earlier. --------
I pulled out the jewelry and the gunpowder I bought and tried to craft them together.
[ Success! You have crafted B-Tier item Jewelry bomb! ] So that's how it works, There is a chance of failing and a chance of success...
I pulled out other stuff and began creating colored lights, bombs and an S-tier item.
This S-tier Item was a seal. It can seal one person and that's what I will use against Tsukasa to kill him.
I smirked as I then finished crafting all my materials I left to meet Kazuhisa.
--------- back to the present ----------
What I did then was set up the lights in multiple places across the city, as for the bombs I still have them, I plan to use them to lure them here.
The lights are set in certain rotations with a certain place and angle. That way they'd form a name.
Once everything was done I looked around and then walked back to the hotel.
once entered I encountered an angry Emi and an angry Luna.
"Mind explaining where you went?" Emi asked as I then looked at her and Luna nervously.
"I- Uhh... I... I was..." I said as I then got bonked by Emi.
"Ow... Have mercy please! I was just walking around the city exploring!" I said as Luna then said.
"Lies!" Am i that bad at lying..?
"Listen I just want some rest..." I said as Emi looked angrily.
"Oh no you don't Young man!" She said as I then got kicked out of the hotel.
"Reflect on what you did Haruki!" She said as I then looked around.
I'm homeless now.
I walked around the city having nothing to do.
While walking around I bumped onto a girl.
"Ow.. Sorry" I said as I stood up and looked at who I bumped into.
"Huh..? Na-eun?" I looked at her and then let my hand out to help her stand up.
She seemed scared and stood up by herself, I don't think she needed the help.
"H-Haruki..." She seemed scared.
"Na-eun I'm... I'm sorry." I apologized
"I did something I shouldn't have, and I really regretted it." I said
She looked at me silently.
"And I decided I want to change, I want to be better... I want to greet the world with open arms. Not with violence." I said as she replied.
"And yet you joined sides with him..." She had a point, how can I prove I changed If I'm working with the killer...
"You also hurt Sin." She said as I then looked at the ground unable to respond.
"Just Listen to me... Please..." I said as she shook her head.
"One day You'll hear what I'm saying, One day you'll understand, one day but not today because I can't tell you." I said as she replied.
"This day you lost it all Haruki." as she then walked away.
"Consider this as my goodbye." She said as she now left.
I smirked after she left.
All the puzzle pieces have been put. It's time to start the plan.
--------- Emi Pov ---------
"Haruki really is a big jerk isn't he Luna?" I asked as Luna nodded.
"Yes! He leaves without saying anything and when he comes back he expects us to act like nothing."
"It's crazy that he's the same kid I used to take care of in school." I said as Luna looked at me Puzzled.
"You two were close?" She asked as I began to flush and then brushed it off.
"Oh dear no! He was waaay too young back then, I'm saying he was 5 years younger than me! I couldn't possibly date him." I said explaining to her the story of how me and Haruki met.
She seemed angry at Kazuhisa and the school for not doing anything back then.
"Me and Haruki tried to do something about his constant bullying." I said as a question arose in my mind.
"Luna are you also a Player?" I asked as she shook her head.
"I'm a resident of this tower." She began telling me how she met Haruki and what she used to do before meeting him.
I have a feeling that my understanding of Luna has gotten better now!
Suddenly whilst we were chatting some more an Announcement was made.
[ The 89th floor of the Tower has been cleared! The people who cleared the floor are Two people! Haruki Suou and Tsukasa Renjou! ]
Hearing that announcement had my eyes widened.
The 89th floor was cleared...?
I looked at Luna who was also shocked.
"You heard it too Luna...?" I asked as she slowly nodded processing the information.
As suddenly Haruki and another guy enter the hotel.
---------- end of Pov -----------
I finally saw Kazuhisa's signal. It was three giant puppets.
As soon as That happened I pulled out the note that I had since getting kicked.
What the note said was...
------ Tsukasa Pov ---------
It seems like the plan is going smoothly.
I smiled and then stood up, Haruki did his part. Now it's time for me to do mine.
"Everyone stay here and don't leave." I commanded and then left the agency.
Back then after knocking Haruki out. I wrote a note in the note I wrote down information of Kazuhisa being alive. and that I needed to do this so he could join sides with Kazuhisa.
Haruki understood everything perfectly and now It's time for us to clear this floor.
-------- end of pov ------------
"Haruki, The real Kazuhisa is alive. Find him and join his side, That way you can fool him." Is what the letter contained. It also had additional information on his whereabouts.
I smiled as I put the note back.
I pulled out a button turning it on.
There The name Kazuhisa was in the sky.
And now, as for the bombs.
I threw them at the puppets.
After destroying one of the giant puppets.
There were two left.
Kazuhisa took notice and rushed at me.
"What is the meaning of this Haruki Suou?!"He shouted at me. I then grabbed his face.
"It's simple Kazuhisa." I said as I continued.
"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer." I said as I then slammed his face on the ground.
"Gah!" He shouted in pain as I then tied him up on a pole tightly.
"Now to play the waiting game." I said as I waited for Tsukasa to arrive.
Once he did I smiled and walked up to him and gave him a High five.
"Your turn detective." I said as I then went to take care of the puppets.
Alright these puppets are managed using mana, so It's time to use that dagger.
I pulled out the dagger that I used against sin once.
I then pulled out the other pair of that dagger.
I rushed to one of the puppets and Began slashing it.
"If I remember correctly... the core of the puppets is the heart." I said as I then walked on the puppet's arm and from there I jumped launching myself to the place of the heart.
Once there I used my new skill [ Dagger Pierce ]
I broke the core as the puppet was now dissolving.
One last puppet.
I rushed to the other puppet and Began to redo my pattern.
This one was different from the other one as It seemed to anticipate my movements.
I found a way though and that is from the back.
I began stabbing the dagger each time to climb higher.
I'll end it with you from behind!" I shouted as I used the skill Again.
[ Dagger Pierce ]
After taking both of them down I realized I have no mana left.
"Damn... I'll walk to where Tsukasa is now." I said as I then pulled out the S-tier item I made.
Pandora's box.
It was the same Box that was given to Pandora. It is said to contain all the evils in this world.
I planned on using this on Kazuhisa.
After making it with Tsukasa, I talked with him.
"So what will we do now?" He asked as I responded.
"This, I'll use this and Imprison him." I said as Tsukasa's eyes widened.
"So you won't kill him?" He asked as I then shook my head.
"What good would killing do? When mercy is a skill more of this world could learn to use." I said as He smiled.
"You're changing Haruki. I'm glad." He said as I then walked up to Kazuhisa.
"When we met I first wanted to be your friend Kazuhisa, But you fed your inner beast and kept bullying me." I said as Tears began forming.
"But by Imprisoning you here, I will move on and make sure my friends won't die in vain." I said as he then laughed.
"Getting emotional huh?" He asked as I then opened Pandora's box.
"Remember me Kazuhisa, I am your darkest moment." I said as I then sealed him inside the box closing it.
And there it was the announcement.
[ The 89th floor of the Tower has been cleared! The people who cleared the floor are Two people! Haruki Suou and Tsukasa Renjou! ]
