Realizer of Death : The Reaper



"Those monsters are Mithril Golems..."

The words of one of the overseers shocked the Realizers. The Mithril Golem was a sixth-level monster similar to Fenrir and the Minotaur but far surpassed them in defense due to its body made of magical metal.

Its skin is much tougher and solid when compared to a Drake or Wyvern and slightly inferior to a true dragon. Despite its large size, the Mithril Golem can move at high speed and has very deadly attacks. Because of that, the Realizers were shocked when they heard the monster's name from the overseer.

"Can we handle this space collapse?" One of the Realizers said in a low voice, but the people around him heard his words.

"Yes, the number of monsters that emerged from the portal is several times ours, not to mention six Mithril Golems. I'm not sure we can fight those monsters." Another Realizer added. After that, the rest of the people responded to their words, showing pessimism about the current situation. As the Realizers sank into their fear, a voice returned them to their senses.

"Everyone is ready to fight! We must eliminate as many low-level monsters as possible before fighting high-level ones. Don't let them leave the Kumotori mountain area and enter the residential area! If that happened, the casualties would be enormous!" One of the overseers instructs the Realizers.

"We understand!" Most answered with burning fighting spirits, and the rest in weak voices. Those people felt they could not handle the space collapse when they saw the number of monsters and Mithril Golems.

Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

The monsters roared when they saw the many humans in that place. The Realizers had manifested their Phantasmal Objects and were ready to fight. But before they made their move, a shadow shot at terrifying speed toward the monster horde.

"Huh!?"

" What's that!?'

"What idiot would dare to charge into the midst of a monster horde alone!?"

"Is that person courting death!?"

The Realizers were confused when they saw the shadow. That person is Tenku, and he intends to kill as many monsters as possible to reduce the danger to his friends. Tenku manifested the Devourer Scythe and dashed into the middle of the monster horde. He swung his weapon and slashed dozens of Ogres' heads in one strike.

Tenku raised his eyebrows because he felt a Mutant Rat suddenly attack from behind. He stepped on the monster's head and used it as a foothold to jump into the air. Tenku compressed the genesis power into the Devourer Scythe and swung it successively at terrifying speeds.

Thousands of Slashes!

Tenku slashed dozens of Orcs and Mutant Rats with his weapon. Most of them died instantly, and the rest were seriously injured. After he landed on the ground, hundreds of monsters rushed toward Tenku and attacked him.

Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Tenku charged at the monsters without hesitation. Whenever he swung his weapon, dozens of Ogres' heads would be chopped off, and blood would spurt out. It looked like a massacre and was a horrific sight for most Realizers.

They fell silent as they watched the battle from Tenku. The Realizers shivered when they heard the screams of the monsters. Corpses and blood were splattered everywhere, making the people scared, especially when they looked into Tenku's eyes.

Tenku killed hundreds of low-level monsters by himself in just a few minutes. The Realizers saw The Reaper as a killing machine because he easily killed hundreds of Ogres like they were insects.

"What's with that person?"

"Isn't he just in the Asteroid phase?"

"How come he can move that fast?"

"Then what is that consecutive attack? Is that the ability of his Phantasmal Object?"

The Realizers said in disbelief when they saw the scene before them. Most of them trembled when they saw how Tenku fought and killed monsters.

Besides them, Akio and the students from Suisei High School were also shocked when they saw Tenku rushing into the middle of the monster horde and slaughtering them.

"This is the first time I've seen him fight in person. I didn't expect him to be that strong." Kaede said without shifting her focus on Tenku.

"This is also the first time I've seen him fight so fiercely." Setsuka responded to her words.

"But I feel that he is different from Tenku. His eyes are so cold, sending chills down my spine." Kaede muttered. Even though she didn't interact much with Tenku, Kaede knew him as calm and friendly. The Reaper she saw now was the opposite of Tenku and like a different person.

"Tenku is Tenku. Even though he turns into a different person when he fights, he is still Tenku for me." Setsuka said in a deep voice.

At first, she also felt the same way as Kaede. Setsuka saw that the current Tenku was very different from the usual him. He looks cold and cruel now. But her heart told her that no matter how that person changed, he was still Tenku, the man she loved.

"You are right." Kaede nodded in agreement with Setsuka's words.

On the other hand, Kirika was fascinated when she saw Tenku's battle against thousands of monsters. This is the second time she has seen Tenku fight. Kirika was amazed at how he used his weapon because it looked so skilled and polished.

While Kirika sank into that feeling, she regained her senses after hearing someone's voice.

"Why are you just standing still and stupefied!? Now attack the monsters and kill them all!" One of the overseers gave an order. The Realizers came back to their senses and answered.

"We understand!"

"Kill the monsters!"

The Realizers charged at the monsters simultaneously. Setsuka and Kirika also didn't want to lose to them and launched their attack. They want to go to Tenku's place and want to fight together with him.

Unfortunately, they couldn't because many monsters were blocking their way, and Tenku was moving so fast toward the farthest space collapse location.

"What does he want to do? Why did you go there?" Kaede asked. She fought shoulder-to-shoulder with Setsuka and killed monsters with spiky vines.

"I don't know. But it seems like he wants to kill all the monsters from space collapse by himself. I have to hurry after him." Setsuka said seriously. He froze the surrounding orcs and reduced them to chunks of ice.

"I will come with you. I can't let you break through that horde of monsters alone and fall into danger." Kaede responded to Setsuka's words and locked the movements of several Mutant Rats with roots from the ground.

"But what about the students? Is it okay if you don't protect them? If we go, I'm afraid the students will be in danger." Setsuka replied to Kaede's words while slashing at the monster that had lost its mobility.

"You don't need to worry about it. The teachers, Satoru, and the rest of the student council members will protect them. Besides, there are third-year students and Hijiri who will help." Kaede explained.

"I understand. Then, we have to hurry after Tenku." Setsuka nodded and thrust her sword into the ground. After that, the area with a twenty-meter radius around her froze along with the monsters.

"Let's go..." Setsuka wanted to say something to Kaede, but she saw an Ogre running at top speed toward her. She was ready to fight the monster. Surprisingly, the Ogre just passed her and ran towards the furthest space collapsed.

"That is..." Kaede was confused when she saw that. But before she could finish her words, Setsuka interrupted her.

"That's Kirika Miyazaki! She also wants to go to Tenku's place!" Setsuka narrowed her eyes and said coldly. She clenched her fists tightly when she saw Kirika standing on the Ogre's shoulder and smiling mockingly at her.

"Phantasmal Release..."

WINTER QUEEN

A crown of ice appeared over Setsuka's head, and her hair turned blue. Then she swung her sword in a circle, and the monsters within a hundred-meter radius of her froze.

When she saw the monsters blocking her way had become chunks of ice, Setsuka dashed off at high speed to catch up to Kirika and left Kaede behind.

"Wait a minute, Setsuka!" Kaede tried to stop Setsuka, but her best friend didn't listen.

"Kirika Miyazaki is so annoying. But why did she go toward Tenku? Does she also know about his strength? If that was true, her report to the principal was a lie. It looks like Setsuka will get a strong love rival. But now was not the time to think about that. I have to catch up with Setsuka soon." Kaede gripped her staff tightly and tapped it on the ground.

"Phantasmal Release..."

FOREST OF DRYAD

Trees suddenly sprouted from the ground, turning the area into a small forest. Then the branches and roots of the trees attacked the monsters around Kaede.

"I have to hurry after them." Kaede ran the way Setsuka had gone. But unlike her best friend, Kaede wasn't a close combat Realizer. Because of that, she ran very slowly. Although Kaede often exercised, it only slightly increased her stamina and speed.

On the other hand, the Realizers and students from Suisei High School fought fiercely against the monsters. Akio fights using his shining Phantamal Object and easily kills low-level monsters. It made several Realizers, whether official or illegal, admire him. But then Akio was confused when he looked around him, and he didn't find Setsuka anywhere.

"Where did Senior Setsuka and Senior Kaede go? Why aren't they here?" Akio asked Michiko who was fighting the Orcs.

"I don't know. I saw them suddenly dash into the middle of the monster horde and disappear." Michiko answered and killed the Orc in front of her.

Asuka was beside her, and her face clouded when she heard that. She already considered Akio as her ideal hero and left Tenku for him. But what she got after that was Akio only saw her as a friend, and he seemed more interested in Setsuka. Asuka felt heartache when she learned that.

She felt this way not because Akio fell in love with another woman but because Asuka regretted leaving Tenku, the man she had been with all this time. She could only keep those feelings in her heart and vent her emotions to the monsters around her.

"What!? They charged into the middle of the monster horde!? Are they following that person!? I can't let them go there. I have to catch up with them." Akio intended to go after Setsuka and Kaede, but the ground shook violently.

"What is this!?"

"Why the sudden earthquake!?"

"Did the Mithril Golem start moving!?"

The Realizers were confused when they felt the earthquake, but what they saw next stunned them. A gigantic metal wall suddenly appeared and divided the battleground into three. This made the Realizers panic and thought that it was the work of one of the monsters.

"Hahaha... this is a start. Next, we will slaughter them all without even one remaining." An illegal Realizer in a black robe laughed horribly and took a parchment scroll from his space pocket.
