110 War in the Woods, Eleven. The Power to Remind

I woke up in the woods.

There are many explosions in the distance, and something smells burning from somewhere. I woke up with that smell and the stimulus of sound. When you look around while falling to the ground, there are no strangers around you who were so nagging until just now.... Where the hell have you been? Besides...

"... wow... what the... is that...?

When he managed to rise on the spot sheltering his painful body and looked in the direction of the explosion sound, he saw a fire column rising from a distant forest. Smoke is rising around the area. The smell of burning seemed to be that.... What's happening? And why am I in a place like this now...?

"... well, I was skipped. To the man in that suit."

I'm finally turning my head. I'm still unconscious... but I'm fine. I have dull pain all over my body, but my body manages to move. Maybe Akai is fighting over there. I have to hurry back there.

There's dull pain running all over my body right now. Instead, if they flew me from there to here, it's so strange that I'm done with this amount of pain. But it sounds like it's sounding pretty much to the bone. I guess it's a little impossible to keep running like this...... but right now, for some reason, I feel like I can use the power of alien powers very well.

"Ignition"

When I activate the anomaly, my body flutters and lifts easily.

Looks like things are still going well around there. And I'm going to apply my strength to the way up the fire column, and I'm going to start moving. Acceleration is fine. There is no anxiety of any kind of control even if the surrounding landscape is accelerated enough to appear distorted. It feels like the trees standing in line are avoiding me and slipping through me.... If this is the case, you can still increase your speed. I'll accelerate to my destination at once.

"... that you were still here"

At the end of your gaze, you can see a herd of 'Fae (Variant)'. I don't have time to stop and deal with them... but I'd better go ahead and beat those guys if I can. It would be more relaxing, but it would be less dangerous for Dr. Meliá.

"" Hotline ""

So, I activate the new Hotline (Heat Tray) that I just learned to try, and I shoot at the wrong head. I can't believe I was moving earlier, but I didn't feel like I could guess, but I feel like I could do it now. That's how...... I can actually do it when I try.

... What... That's easy (...), surprisingly.

When you get used to it, there's nothing you can't do while traveling like this. Instead, why did you ever think you couldn't? It's so easy. That's how I destroy the guy's head from one end to the other.

... Oh, you feel a little better. Gradually, my body ached. It's so easy right now. I feel like I can do a lot of things right now.

"... Mm-hmm, the firepillar has moved... that way...?

Far away columns are moving. There must be Akai over there.

The enemy just now is there, too. Me too, I have to get back there fast. If you think so and accelerate even further, you will be amazingly fast. The surrounding alien landscape slides distorted and flowing, but without any difficulty I crush all the heads of the different "aliens" on the "hotline (heat-ray)" and head to their destination.

... what the... isn't this really easy?

I wonder why I thought it would be so difficult. I didn't think I could do it until just now, which makes me look stupid.

... and now... I don't feel any physical pain that I just had.

On the contrary, the body moves very freely. It's so comfortable.

...... I feel very good (...).

And... my senses are so sharp.

I feel like I can feel every resolution of what I can feel, up to the movement of all the little particles around me (...).

...................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"... here or... there you are, Akai..."

And I quickly arrived at the place where the giant firepillar stood. There, after all, Akai and that skinhead man were colliding hard. In a sea of flames covering the area, they were bumping into each other like beating each other over and over again.

... but where did that guy in that suit go? I don't see him.

I approach Akai in flames.

"... Hey Akai. Where did he go earlier...?

A very low sound came out of my mouth. It's like you're not your own voice.

... I have no choice. Now my body is worn out by the shock I just had. Luckily for some reason I don't feel much pain, but if I shout it out, it always sounds somewhere in my body. So I guess that's what I'm doing. I'm sure it is. That's why I have such a low voice.

"... Serizawa, you're safe...? He's ahead of us. But this guy's in the way... I can't get through...!

"... that guy...?

Seen, the skinhead man facing Akai has created something like a transparent wall, preventing Akai from flaming. Oh, can't we go through because of this wall? Ahead...... is there that guy? Then...

"" The root system "… was alive? But not a step further..."

"Careful, Serizawa, this guy...!

"'Out of the way...... disappear (...)'"

From my own mouth, I heard an incredibly low voice myself.

Shortly afterwards, a mass of air in front of the man was instantly warmed and red-hot, exploding. His transparent walls were shattered by the impact, and the man was flown straight into the back of his sight.

"...... na......!? Serizawa, what are you...!?

"... well, let's go"

I have to go to that flying man, too. I wholeheartedly agree.

... that, why?

Why do I have to go after him...?

"Hey, that's not good, the direction he flew in...... damn it!!

Saying so, Akai erupted a flame from his back, and with considerable momentum he flew in the direction in which the skinhead man was flown.

"... oh yeah. I have to hurry too..."

Yes, I must hurry after Akai, too. That man who blew me out...... I have to go after him now.

Because.

I am.

Get those guys.

"'Cause I have to break it'"

... right.

I think so from the bottom of my heart. That's what I do now.

……………………

From the depths of my heart, I hear voices. That's fine.

I obey that voice. I have to obey. If you obey, it's comfortable.

Oh............... I feel so much better (...).

"Ignition"

That's how I accelerate. The landscape flowed to melt, and Akai's appearance, which looked like about a bean grain, soon approached. Akai was held back by that skinhead man's wall again.

Oh... I don't think so. Stop right here.

You can't move on................ I'll break the wall like that.

"Akai......" Retreat (...) "

I blast the air and gently blow Akai straight to the side, smashing the wall made by the man in front of me,

"'Heating Up'"

Thoughtfully warmed (...).

- Dogon!!

A dazzling flash ran from where I touched it, while a light impact was transmitted to his arm, and the man blew across every broken wall, vanishing right into the back of his sight as he snapped down the trees.

Oh...... that's fine. Now we move on. Come on, let's go.

"... Nah... Serizawa...!? What are you doing!?

"... what?

"In that direction, everyone... Kagura has non-combatant students!?

".......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Right, was it?... That's why you can't?... I don't know. Akai, what is this guy trying to say after all...? I don't know.

"... Hey Serizawa...!? You, what happened just now!? You all right, sweetheart? That's a little crazy!?... No, not now... damn!!!

That's all Akai said again, he blasted flames out of his body again and flew away. The surrounding trees broke by the shock and blew away. I eased the shock wave by rapidly lowering the temperature around me, holding it in with reverse wind pressure that was about to fall on the spot.

That was a little dangerous...... it was going to fall to the ground.... right. I have to go, too. We have to hurry.

"Ignition"

As such, the landscape slides again instantly. I overtook Akai in an instant, and now I get to the skinhead guy first.

"... be...!?" Root system "… now how…!?

Oh... this guy, too, is persistent. I'm waiting to build another wall just now, bleeding from all over my body.... at all, you still don't get to say that such a thing is futile?

... Now it's time to break it (...).

"'Heating Up'"

I jump up suddenly under the pebble that was rolling there, and when I take it in my hand, I heat it up even further. Pebbles gradually became spheres with red heat and drizzle melting, and began to glow gradually… as soon as thin muscles of light began to emerge.

This is it... this is it, okay. If I tap this into his head...

"Serizawa-kun!!! No!!!

Unexpectedly, behind my back, I heard a voice. Who is it?

... Is this voice... Dr. Melia?

Wasn't the teacher supposed to be evacuating with everyone?

Why is Dr. Meliá here?

No, by the way... I am now... what the hell are you doing?

"... that? Why am I here...?

... right. Sure, I run with Akai to protect everyone....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

"... hmm...? What are you doing, me...?

My memory is... vague.

Until just now, I feel like I've been having some weird dreams. My whole body hurts terribly. I'm finally standing...... no, I can't do it anymore. I can't do it at all... my whole body screams from my toes to my brain.

It's a severe pain that's suddenly come from where nothing's ever happened before, it's painful, it's breathing crazy.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! How...!?

And...!!

"... come on...... what.............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

What's in my hand right now... is the same thing I made during my training with gorillas.

Could this be... made by me...?... right?

................................. Shit.

Oh, no, no, no, no!!!

What the hell was I doing?!?

This then, keep it up, everyone here............!!!

"Serizawa-kun, let it cool right away!!!

I hear Dr. Meliá again.

... right. This is supposed to be something that was made of warming. You just have to do the opposite.

That's how I hang the glowing sphere in my hand to cool down. My whole body hurts, but I can't care less about that.

"... done...!!!

Instantly the sphere cooled and became just a cold stone. Now the worst part is, I got away. That's what I was thinking, and I threw up a lot of blood. I can get a big red stain on the ground.

............... what is this? My blood?... right?

"... ahhh...?

Gopri.

I spit even more blood on my stomach as if it had been accumulating forever, and I fell on the spot.

Clashing defenselessly to the ground, the impact echoes across the body.

"...................................................!!!

Very voiceless, pain.

Intense pain strikes every inch of my body at the same time, as if to curse what has ever been forgotten. Arms, guts, neck, legs, belly, and... guts. Screaming, screaming orchestra of every sensory organ. My body cramps due to pain and I can't breathe.

This.................. sucks. I can't get up at all anymore.

I see the enemy I just encountered. But I'm already...

I saw Akai and Kurosaki-kun, who started fighting to protect her, with Dr. Meliá rushing toward me in a plundering vision.
