Realizer of Death : The Reaper



The Realizers participating in the joint mission of the three official organizations had entered the Kumotori mountain area. Most of them had manifested their Phantasmal Objects and were watching their surroundings warily.

Although the official organization could predict the day and location of the space collapse, the exact time and coordinates couldn't be determined. Space collapse can occur sooner or later anywhere in the Kumotori mountain area.

eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ Because of that, the overseers of the three organizations carried a device that could detect the exact coordinates where the space collapse would occur. But after they had walked for fifty-five minutes, they still had not found it.

Tenku walked at the very back and released his divine consciousness continuously to inspect the area around him. If he could find the location of the space collapse before the overseers of the organization, then he would be able to kill more monsters, and his strength would increase significantly.

But after he searched for almost an hour, Tenku still couldn't find a location where space collapse would appear. He gave up his search and let the overseers do their thing. Tenku was a little tired from using too much of his spiritual power.

When Tenku inspected the area around him with his spiritual sense, he noticed several people were watching him. They are Setsuka, Kirika, Akina, Daichi, Akio and Hijiri. He was slightly confused about why the latter kept looking at him. But Tenku didn't overthink it and focused on his surroundings.

Besides them, Tenku also found two suspicious people among the illegal Realizers. But he didn't sense any malicious intent from them. Tenku thought they weren't members of the Ghost Nebula, but he had to stay alert and watch the two people.

"We will rest in this place for fifteen minutes. Make the best use of that time to recover your stamina." One of the overseers from the three official organizations spoke up and stopped their search. He didn't want the Realizers to get tired before they found the exact location of the space collapse.

After hearing the overseer's words, the Realizers quickly dispersed and looked for their respective resting places. As usual, Tenku chose to sit under a tree while listening to music through his favorite headphones.

Not long after sitting down on that spot, Tenku raised his eyebrows when he heard the sound of footsteps. He turned his head and was confused when he saw Setsuka walking towards him. Not only Tenku but also the other Realizers felt the same way.

"Why did Miss Fuyushima approach that person?"

"Is it about the previous matter?"

"Does she want to talk about what happened in front of Mt. Kumotori's entrance?"

"Is she afraid that The Reaper will hold a grudge against that student?"

The Realizers gave their respective guesses when they saw Setsuka approaching Tenku.

"Why did Senior Fuyushima approach The Reaper?" Akio said in annoyance.

"This might be related to what happened between Daichi and The Reaper." The one who responded was Michiko. Daichi snorted coldly when he heard that. He was still irritated by what had happened in front of the Kumotori mountain entrance.

"But what is the purpose of coming to him?" Akio was confused about Setsuka's reason for approaching The Reaper under the eyes of so many people.

"Senior Fuyushima might be worried that Ther Reaper will hold a grudge and will harm Daichi in this mission." Asuka replied.

"Couldn't the teachers do it? Why does it have to be her talking to that person?" Akio felt displeased when he saw the girl he liked approaching another man, even though the other party was a forty-year-old middle-aged man.

"Hmm... maybe she thinks this is her responsibility as the student council president." Michiko answered. Akio was speechless when he heard that and clenched his fists tightly.

On the other hand, Kirika narrowed her eyes when she saw Setsuka boldly approaching Tenku in front of the other Realizers. She wasn't stupid and noticed the girl recognized Tenku, but the other side didn't know that. Kirika knows Setsuka's feelings for him, and she feels jealous of her courage.

"What is Setsuka doing? Why did she suddenly go near that person?" Kaede was confused by Setsuka's actions. Her best friend suddenly went towards Tenku without saying anything to her. But then Kaede's face changed, and her body trembled as she thought of a possibility.

"Could it be..." Kaede looked at Tenku intensely and said in disbelief. Then she looked at her best friend, who was approaching him. Setsuka stopped near Tenku and opened her mouth.

"Could I talk to you for a minute?" Setsuka smiled and asked. She courageously approached Tenku and talked to him before the other Realizers.

"What do you want to talk to me about? If you want to discuss what happened in front of Mt. Kumotori's entrance, you should forget about it. I already told you not to worry about that matter. I won't do anything to him if he doesn't provoke me anymore." Tenku replied.

"No. I don't want to talk about it. I want to chat with you. Do you mind if I sit next to you?" Setsuka shook her head and pointed at the spot next to him.

"Huh? Do you want to sit next to an illegal Realizer? You should know I'm a middle-aged man. Aren't you afraid that the people in this place will spread rumors about you? What is your purpose in sitting down and talking with me here? What do you want from me?" Tenku said in a deep voice.

"I don't want anything from you. I want to talk to you and nothing more." Setsuka said seriously. She could barely contain her laughter when she heard Tenku say he was a middle-aged man.

"Then the reason is?" Tenku narrowed his eyes at Setsuka.

"I don't have any reason." Setsuka answered briefly.

Tenku was speechless when he saw the calm eyes and smile on her face. He felt Setsuka wasn't afraid of him even though he was an illegal Realizer, but he didn't know why.

(Did she already know my identity? But how did she find out? I never showed her the Devourer Scythe. So that's not possible. Then what's the reason? Is it just my feeling, or is she trying to get close to me? Setsuka wouldn't approach a middle-aged man without a clear purpose.)

Tenku pondered and kept looking at Setsuka's face.

"Hmm... It's embarrassing if you keep looking at me like that." Setsuka said in a low voice and lowered her head. Her face was red, and she felt embarrassed when Tenku kept staring at her.

"Cough! I'm sorry." Tenku just realized that he had been staring at Setsuka for a while, making the girl uncomfortable.

"You don't need to worry about that. I don't mind it." Setsuka shook her head.

"Do you know who I am?" Tenku wanted to confirm whether Setsuka knew about his true identity or not.

"Of course. Aren't you The Reaper? You are an illegal Realizer who is quite famous for slaughtering monsters in space collapse that appear all over Tokyo. Am I right?" Setsuka replied calmly.

She felt that Tenku had started to suspect that she knew his identity. But Setsuka can't tell him she knows who he is because she's afraid Tenku will stay away from her. She didn't want that to happen.

"Alright. Please, sit. But you'd better stay a little bit away from me so as not to create gossip about you and spoil your image." Tenku sighed and reluctantly allowed Setsuka to sit beside him. He wanted her to leave that place and asked her to stay away from him, but his heart couldn't do that. After all, Tenku felt that Setsuka still didn't know his true identity and thought that the girl had come for another purpose.

"Thank You!" Setsuka felt happy after hearing that and sat down beside Tenku without hesitation. Even though Tenku had asked her not to get too close, she sat beside him, and their distance was almost zero. It shocked the people in that place, especially the students from Suisei High School.

"Huh!? Why is senior Fuyushima sitting with that person!?"

"What were they talking about for them to sit that close!?"

"Has that person done something to senior Fuyushima!?"

The students from Suisei High School were angry when they saw that. They didn't accept it when they found Setsuka sitting beside Tenku.

The students wanted to go to that place and warned Tenku not to get close to Setsuka, especially if he had bad intentions toward her. The one who led them was Satoru because he was displeased when he saw Setsuka together with a middle-aged man. But they had only taken a few steps when someone stood before them and stopped them.

"What do you want to do?" Kaede stood in front of the students and asked.

"We want to go there and ask the president to come back. The matter at the Kumotori mountain entrance had been resolved, so she didn't need to talk to that person. In addition, we also intend to warn The Reaper not to have evil thoughts towards the president because she is the daughter of Fuyushima Temple." The one who answered was Satoru, and the other students nodded in agreement at his words.

"What are you saying, Satoru? Did you see The Reaper force Setsuka to sit with him? Although I didn't hear their conversation, I can confirm that Setsuka sat beside him of her free will.

So you don't have to make up stories to move the students. Moreover, Setsuka spoke to him for the students from our school. Do you understand?" Kaede looked at Satoru and then at the students behind him.

"But if she sat that close to The Reaper, it would create gossip for her and possibly destroy her image. That's not good for Fuyushima Temple." Satoru didn't want to hear Kaede's words because he couldn't let Setsuka sit that close to another man, even though he was middle-aged.

"Whether that's good or not, that's decided by Setsuka, not you. She must have thought about that before she acted. Do you think that Setsuka is a fool without calculation? If he doesn't mind doing that, then why are you bothered?

I know what you're thinking right now. But you have to remember that you are the vice president of the student council, and you cannot recklessly move students around for your sake.

If Setsuka found out about this, then she would be angry. Moreover, you're trying to meddle in her affairs and Fuyushima Temple. So I warn you, take those students back to their seats, and don't disturb Setsuka." Kaede glared at Satoru and said coldly.
