Heroes In Other Worlds
MEETING WITH RIVALS

"Who is he?" Kenta Ken saw a man leaning against an apple tree. "Wait .. I don't think I'm a stranger to that man."

Kenta Ken walked up to the man, and after the distance between him and the man was about twenty meters, the man turned towards him as he was about to bite the apple.

"Hazuki's." Kenta Ken mentioned the name of the man who turned out to be his own Hazuki—rival.

"Ken, we meet again here. If you're here, that means Sagachi is also in this area, right? You went with Sagachi to fight the demon lord in Zephyra Kingdom, didn't you?" guess Hazuki. The seventeen-year-old boy would have guessed it, had Sagachi gone along with Kenta Ken. Because at that time Cika and Chizu told him this.

"Why do you know? Who told you this?" ask Kenta Ken. He thought, if not Vitaloka or Furuko would tell him this. The two girls also went with him.

Hazuki then stood up, walking closer to Kenta Ken who was still standing looking at her from a distance. "Sagachi's theme told me."

Hearing Hazuki's words, Kenta Ken muttered inwardly. "Sagachi Friends? But who?" Kenta Ken thought for a moment, and after that a memory appeared in his mind. "Ooh, no more wrong. He must have known from both of them."

What Kenta Ken meant by the word 'the two of them' was none other than Cika and Chizu.

"Did Cika and Chizu tell him?" ask Kenta Ken to make sure.

"Yupz, that's exactly it. From the beginning my rival is very smart when it comes to guessing," replied Hazuki. Now he had been in front of Kenta Ken and was only about a meter away nearby.

"Then, what's your purpose in following us?" kenta Ken asked as he looked at Hazuki who was now in front of him.

Hazuki replied, "I will help you in the attack on the demon lord in the Zephyra Kingdom."

"Can I come with you there?" hazuki continued by asking.

Kenta Ken thought for a moment before deciding, until in his heart the black-robed man muttered, "It's good anyway. The more members, the easier it would be to defeat that demon lord. And this man's abilities are also almost on par with mine once. But I don't know what his abilities are now."

Kenta Ken was getting deep in his mind, "Aaah, how about I test Hazuki's abilities first."

"Hey! So, I can come with you guys, right?" hazuki asked by raising his intonation, because he had not yet received a response from Kenta Ken.

Kenta Ken who was pensive in his mind gasped slightly in shock. "Just take this you ... may, but with very conditions."

"What's the condition?" Hazuki asked immediately.

Kenta Ken replied, "I tested your skills first. How's it?"

"Oh, so you doubt my abilities, huh?" Hazuki prepared by taking the Dager Weapon she had tucked under her cloak. He already understood very well, if the intention of testing his ability must be by dueling.

Kenta Ken, who knows Hazuki is about to pull out his weapon, activates his bon-eye mode while quickly pulling out his Katana.

Somewhere else.

Now Furuko began to open her eyes slowly, this indicates that the blue-haired girl had begun to roar.

"Sagachio ... Sagach! Furuko is beginning to wake up." Vitaloka, who is still sitting near Furuko, tells about the state of the blue misty girl who has begun to roar.

"really?" Sagachi rushed towards them with a happy look on his face.

"Yes, it's Sagachi. This is your sister getting sober," Vitaloka repeated his words when Furuko had opened it perfectly. The purple misty girl immediately stroked softly on Furuko's head. He seems to have regarded Furuko as his own biological sister.

"Nisan," Furuko said in a weak voice, as she looked at Sagachi who was now beside her.

"Furuko, thank goodness you're awake. Nisan's been so worried about you." Sagachi stroked his sister's head gently.

"I'm fine. Thank you for saving us from the snake" Furuko said in response to Sagachi's remarks. The blue misty girl still spoke in a weak voice.

"No need to thank you, it's an obligation for a brother to always protect his sister." Sagachi did not want Furuko to be too affectionate with him. After all, he would always protect his brother and destroy anyone who would harm him.

"True, I will also always protect you, Furuko." Vitaloka said this time. "Because you've also been considered my sister."

"Yes, Vita-san has also been very good with me all along. I also consider Vita-san as my older sister," Furuko said in response to Vitaloka's remark.

"Then don't call me that again. Come on, call me Nesan!" pinta Vitaloka asked Furuko to call with that title, because the word 'Nesan' was a name for a sister to her sister.

"All right, Nesan."

Somewhere else.

Hazuki's fight with Kenta Ken looks very fast. These two Assassins were as balanced in terms of speed and agility.

Although Kenta Ken has activated his purple eye mode, it does not make Hazuki lose quickly to him.

The truce between Dagger Hazuki and Katana Kenta Ken gave rise to a loud clanging sound.

"Quick waiter is also now you, Hazuki." Kenta Ken praised Hazuki's ability which he said now has improved greatly compared to the previous one.

"It's nothing, I haven't put all my strength into it" Hazuki said in response to a compliment from Kenta Ken.

Their talks are still accompanied by a truce fending off between Double Dagger Hazuki and Katana Kenta Ken.

"So, how? Can I come with you to defeat the demon lord?" Hazuki had a few unanswered questions.

"Alright .. good. I admit, your abilities are much better than before. You can come with us." Kenta Ken shot straight back and kept his distance, the black-robed man to end his duel first, but that didn't mean he gave up, because he also had to return immediately with medicine for Vitaloka and Furuko who are now still injured.

"Enough!" Kenta Ken stopped Hazuki who was about to dart and was about to slash her. He stopped her by hinting at her hand.

"Alright, this time I won. And you're the loser." Hazuki is now satisfied with Kenta Ken whom she considers to have given up.

"Who tried it too? I'm not in time, I'm in a hurry to find a cure to cure them." Kenta Ken reasoned, he did not accept being defeated by his rival.

"Cure them?"
