Chapter-9: Taking on a Quest

———————————————————\\\\\\\\\\

3rd POV | Cassell Agency Office |

Cassell Civil Security was the name that the group decided to name their agency, They also bought and requested custom weapons rather made with Varanium or coated with it

Like Ren got a Tang Dao coated with Varanium, Kanesada coated his sword body Varanium, and Sajuna didn't need that much weapons because of the strength of her Magical Splash Flare, but she still got a pistol with Varanium ammo...Toka also didn't need any weapons because of the sharpness of her blood constructs but she still also got a Varanium dagger...

Ren was just chilling in his couch, until...

Ding-!

『You have received a mission!』

Ren immediately became intrigued and started paying attention

'Show me the mission system' Ren said in his heart

「Mission Name: Kill the Destroyers

Info: You must receive and destroy a Gastrea Horde

Rewards: Haze of Rumbling Heavens Skill Book 」

"Oh? The skill that the King of Dwarves used in Tensura? Interesting...It seems like the system wants me to go down the swordsman route" Ren said as he pulled his Tang dao coated with Varanium from a pocket space he has created for himself, kinda like an inventory

Why a Tang Dao you ask? Simply because he found it cool and was tired of using a katana all the time. He was also inspired from a female Character called Bai Yuekui from Ling Cage

His Tang Dao was custom made, with a blue colored sheath, and handle, together with blue engravings on the sword that looks like it was always shining a frosty light, like it has ice in it's engravings.

Paching-!

The sound of drawing a blade resounded as Ren looks at his crystal clear reflection...The blade shone a cold light with Ren smiling coldly as he thought about the fanatics he could kill when they hurt lolis...Damn Loli killers!

Ren shook his head as he thought to himself,

"No, no, no, this thinking is bad, I shouldn't be bloodthirsty" Ren calmed himself down as he sheathed his sword again

Ren threw his sword in the air as a ripple appeared and swallowed it

Ren headed to the main room of the office building, and barged in

"Guys! We should take a quest!" Ren suggested to the Chat group members

They first needed to get to the headquarters of the Seitenshi (Holy Son of Heaven), and receive a mission there

"You mean make our debut? Let's go! We gotta make it as grand as possible!" Sajuna replied cheerfully as she stood up immediately

"We're not idols, we're basically mercenaries, that's how the system of the Promoters work" Toka replied as she teased Sajuna

"What are we waiting for?!" Sajuna said as she ignored Toka's side remark

"O ho?" Toka smiled as she realized that Sajuna is becoming immune to her teasing

The Chat group members then went to the very big branch headquarters of the Seitenshi, the governor of the Tokyo Area

Once they arrived inside, they were greeted by the many Promoters just moving around, interacting and picking Missions

"Wow, this looks like the fantasy games I was playing" Sajuna said as she remembered guilds from fantasy games

"Yeah, it does seem like that..." Ren replied as he also remembered

They headed towards the receptionist's desk, once they reached it, they were handled by a clerk

"Are you guys new here?" The clerk asked directly

"Yes, We have only just established our agency" Kanesada took the lead

"So do you guys wanna take a mission already?" The clerk asked them

"Yes please" Ren said as he nodded

"We...have quite an array of missions here, but you're still new so I'm gonna pick a relatively easy one for you all is that alright"

"Yup! No problem" Ren gave a thumbs up at the clerk

The clerk then took a paper, stamped it and then recorded it in a computer

"Okay, it's now processed, the way to prove that you have finished you quest is by getting any body part of the Gastrea" The clerk handed them the paper

"Thanks" Ren said as he took it and folded it

The gang went out of the building and proceeded to go to the mission site, the outside of District 11

What they saw was a horde of Gastrea lurking around, there were many types of Gastrea, from mosquito looking Gastrea, to boar-looking Gastrea, and bird-like Gastrea

The level of Gastrea in this area typically range from level 1 to level 2. So this is the area of the newbies and beginners

The military has enforced quite a strict defense line along this area, because no amount of awareness is never enough

"Let's just...kill?" Toka said as she cut her palm. Even though Varanium weapons technically allow humans to kill the Gastrea, The Gastrea can actually can be killed if a force is huge enough or is strong enough

"Let's just kill" Ren responded as he took his Tang dao from his pocket space and unsheathed it

*Bury The Light Theme song plays in the background*

Booom-!

A loud boom was heard from Ren as he sunk his feet into the ground deeply, and dashing. His dash was so fast that it produced a loud Sonic boom and the ground was destroyed

Ren reappeared near a Mosquito Gastrea, time seemed like it was in slow motion as Ren slashed vertically at the body of the Gastrea

The sword cut through the flesh and carapace of the Gastrea, disgusting green blood splashed at the surroundings, but not at Ren

"How did you not get any of that blood on you?" Toka asked while getting chills

"Oh, I have the ability to manipulate space, so I just manipulated it to make an invisible barrier" Ren said as he flicked his sword to rid it of blood as he turned to them

"Behind you!" Sajuna suddenly shouted to alert Ren

Swish-! Swish-! Swish-!

A huge slash erupted, then, followed by hundreds of slashed appeared as Ren disappeared in an afterimage

What was once impossible for Ren to do, was now possible, with his inhuman strength, speed, and reaction time, he managed to do a sword technique like the Judgement Cut End. Ren practiced his swordsmanship again when he arrived here, combined with his new ability, Slash Emperor Comprehension, his speed of learning and training increased immensely

Ren slowly sheathed his Tang dao with his eyes closed and a rain of green blood around him, splattering throughout the place

Kanesada's eyes widened at Ren's swordsmanship, even he, who was formerly a sword, cannot achieve that level of swordsmanship easily

Toka was also awed with his sword skills, she was once a genius with the sword but left it for her passion of cooking, and that's also the reason why she was so good with cooking, a good technique with the knife is one of the foundations of cooking

"Ah...I missed this feeling of cutting things again" Ren said with a blissfull expression
