Looking at the name, that was when did Hana realized that it was her friend. Hana was so shocked by it and a tear dropped.
As soon as Hana saw the tear, she then asked herself why did she cried. What's on her mind now? What makes her feel really sad? Is it the happiness? Is it the reunion? Is it because of how many people actually cared about her?
Or is it about how she actually wanted to continue to live with her current life there. So that she could meet and see more of the people there? If she gets out of there. Will she be able to see Aikari again? Or will they both just go apart?
Hana began to think about that until she realized that maybe in the real world, Aikari won't accept her the way he did with her now. Maybe Aikari will just stay with her until his mission is accomplished and after that Aikari won't have a reason to stay with her anymore. It's weird. But Hana just got a feeling that she doesn't think that Aikari would do like what did she wanted to.
As Hana was thinking about that, suddenly a question began to appear in her head: "Why would I care about him? Is this what Love means?" As Hana continued to have that kind of thoughts, suddenly she heard a step of people running outside. Hana quickly took a look at it and then she saw a guy with a black robe are running with a big bag behind him. Hana could see that the guy was trying to escape by becoming invisible, but it's not working since he was in a radius of where Hikari lived. Hikari's metal body is jamming his magic. So he got no choice but to do some parkour.
He climbed on the roof and jumped to the next roof. Hoping that he will reach the exit. But then suddenly a magic arrow all cast on him. They are all coming towards him with a different elemental powers. But that guy is still able to escape from it by going down the street.
He's out of breath and now he hides within the town to take some breath. He looked at the bag he just stole.
"Zeeep"
He opened the bag and he could see a grey colored metal item in there. There is also something like a shining crystal on it. That man was so glad as he saw everything was in a good state. He signed in a glad and then began to plan his way to get out of there as he could hear people are searching for him. He was so afraid of it, and she zipped the bag again and then slowly sneaked around the town without getting busted.
"Tap Tap Tap"
He slowly sneaked around with a bag on his back. He knows that he needs to deliver the bag to his guy so that they can proceed with their project. It was an old project that even he doesn't know whether they can do it or not. But it's worth giving it a shot. The man continued to walk and he then arrived at the bridge where he could go out of the city from there. But the problem is that there are too many people that live there and it seems like it was lively there. The guard has also begun to search around that area too. That then just made him screwed up there.
The guy then needs to think of the other way to get out of there. He began to open the device in his bag and try to look at the map for another exit.
But the guards have begun to search around the area that he needs to run away. But as he turned around, he then saw a girl with a pink hair and red and purple eyes. He was so shocked by it, and he wanted to just push the girl away and run. But the girl then asked him, "You look like you're in a hurry. What's happening." The guy didn't think that he should answer that and just run away. But then he got stopped as he heard that girl ask, "Are you running from someone?" The guy held the beg tighter and said, "You don't understand just how could this thing change the world. YOU PEOPLE WON'T UNDERSTAND IT!" Hana then turned towards that guy and told him to tell her what is his plan was and with that then maybe she could help him up to do so. But there's a condition for that.
That guy could hear that the guards were getting closer and there was no way he could get out of there other than accepting Hana's offer. So he then asked Hana what did she wanted and Hana then quickly stated the condition there.
"The things inside your bag. Wherever did that item went, I want to have a share of it. Which it means, wherever did that thing goes, I will also get a share of it."
That man got no way to get out of there. He looked at Hana and the exit on where did the soldiers might come in. Unable to think of the way to escape from there, he then accepted Hana's request and then they shook hands.
Hana then told the guy to follow her. Hana brought him into an unknown building and then caused a big smoke there. The smoke filled the town and then they both jumped over the wall on where Hana cast a spell that they could go through it and exit the kingdom.
Hana and the guy were so glad that they had escaped and the guy then lay down on the ground in a happiness that they had made it. The guy looked at Hana and just couldn't believe he met a witch. He has never seen a real one before. All he did was watch it in the movie before.
He then stood up and asked Hana "How were you able to do something like that?" Hana looked at the guy with a weird face and asked him back "What do you mean?" That question made Hana stunned for a while. But the way that guy looked at her, it seems like he never saw such a thing as magic. But Hana was so sure that the guy jumped up too high before. Maybe he has some magic too?
Hana then asked the guy "You're not from this kingdom, right?" That man then stands up and nods his head. He told Hana that he travelled to here because of he was searching for that material. So he could activate the old machine in his base.
Of course when Hana heard that guy mentioned about a base, she then thought that guy was from a certain organization that wanted to do something with the material. So did she just help a criminal? That looks unbelievable, and she then took out her weapon and aimed her sword towards him. She quickly told the guy "You better tell me what's happening here. A base? That doesn't sound normal for me."
The guy then told Hana to calm down and he told Hana that they don't have many people right now because most of them are all dead. So he just wanted to at least make it a success with just a few members of them. To reactivate their successor machine.
Hana then lowered her sword and accepted the reason. But when she lowered her sword, suddenly there was a sound of a strong wind about to get to her, and she then quickly turned towards the direction and blocked it.
"CHANG!"
When Hana turned around she saw a girl with a glaive on her hand. Her hair is black and it looks like she is younger than she is. But that strike from her doesn't seem like she was playing there. Hana then cast a flame on her sword and charged towards that girl.
"HARGH!"
The girl didn't just stand there and clashed with Hana with all her might. Hana cast a spell towards the girl, but as her spell went through, Hana then saw her spell change its direction and go towards her. Hana was so weird about that and she then cast a shield to protect both of her and that guy.
As the magic disappeared, Hana then saw the girl still standing in front of her, and she then asked the girl "Who are you?" Ai then looked at Hana carefully and she began to remember if she had ever seen Hana before. She put down her weapon and stepped ahead.
When Hana saw the girl lowering her weapon, Hana then also lowered down her weapon. They both looked at each other and the girl asked Hana first, "Have we ever met before? I think like I have ever seen you before." Hana then looked at the girl and began to think about it.
A long silence happened and the guy also turned from the super scared expression to a weird expression. The guy looked at both Hana and Ai. Wondering if they're about to continue the fight or not.
But then Ai remembered the things and asked, "You, you're with Aikari, right? Then why are you helping the criminal?" When Hana heard that, she then instantly told Ai that they'd just mistaken it. I wasn't sure if she should believe Hana or not. But maybe it's better for her to hear what Hana is about to say. Because she doesn't know what is happening there.
Ai then looked at the material inside of the guy bag and told Hana to explain it. But before Hana could even talk, the guy dropped the bag and showed Ai what he had inside. He then quickly explained to Ai about what he got there.
"I'm sorry for stealing this metal. But I really need to use this for the machine that we have all been working on. I'm so sure that the machine could help everyone."
Ai still couldn't believe the guy and she then told the guy that he was doing it the wrong way. He should just ask the king 'Hikari' directly if he really needed that because she was so sure that Hikari would help him. But more than that, maybe he should just tell everyone about what is happening there. Other than keeping it a secret.
The guy apologized to Ai and Hana about it. But before that, he then introduced himself to them.
"My name is Kimeki Akaru. You can call me Akaru."
Both of Ai and Hana then smiled and greeted Akaru by telling their names too. When Hana looked at Akary's shoes, she knew that it's not just an ordinary shoes. She has never seen anything like that in the kingdom before. So how could Akaru produce that kind of shoes? Hana didn't think the people of this world could make one. So it must be true that Akaru is from a different world.
Akaru did tell them that he could show them about the things that he is currently doing. So Hana then told Akaru to bring them there. Ai agreed so. But before that, maybe they should tell Hikari about it too. Plus, maybe Akaru should apologize for what is happening there. Rather than go and run like a criminal.
Akaru was thinking the same too and apologized to Ai about what just happened. He told Ai that he hoped this kind of thing wouldn't happen. He never thought that they would be that kind. Again he apologized to them about what happened there, and suddenly they heard Hikari's voice saying.
"That's enough. I already know everything."
When Akaru lifted up his head, he then saw Hikari are standing next to Ai. He was so shocked by that sudden appearance, and he quickly bowed down and apologized to Hikari about what just happened. But Hikari didn't get mad at all and told Akaru to stop doing so, and he then told Akaru to explain what is happening there.
So since Hikari is already there, Akaru then told Hikari to follow him. Because if they could see the real thing there, then it might be easier for them to believe him. Hikari was thinking the same too and with that, all of them headed there.
But before they go, Hikari then told them that he might bring Aikari with them because he got a feeling that maybe there's some connection with Aikari in here.
Hikari wasn't sure why. But he wants Aikari to be there.
