- EDA Ranker\'s Support and Intelligence Unit -

"Sir, requesting permission to access satellite recordings of Ottara city." the woman that was talking to Terry said to her officer.

"Reason?" the officer asked bluntly.

"We\'re suspecting that an unidentified high ranker from Torinto city has unleashed a large scale destructive attack."

"Oh was it that crimson-purple girl?" seeing that the woman has nodded, the officer continued. "Well, she\'s not unidentified anymore. Bell Holland, the local unit leader in Torinto city has vouched for her. Make sure to read your reports when you have enough time, Ms. Lucia."

"Yes, sir." Ms. Lucia replied, feeling her cheeks getting warm from embarrassment.

"Timmy!" the officer called on a blonde ranker that was busy checking on various screens at once.

"Sir?"

"Can you play the recordings you showed me again for two portals at the north side of the city?"

"Sure thing!" Timmy said and transferred a video file to a large screen at the center of the room.

Even though the officer has watched it before, he couldn\'t help but admire the precision and strength of the attack.

"She has such fine control that would put most of our rankers to shame..." the officer muttered before looking at the Ms. Lucia again.

"We\'ve already sent the footage to Mr. Holland so we\'ve done our part. And even though I\'d like to contact the girl and have her go help at the south side of the city, Mr. Holland had advised otherwise. Think of her as a free bird, so for now, just go back to monitoring the situation."

"Yes, sir!" Ms. Lucia said and went back to her desk.

*sigh*

\'I envy you Bell, for having such talented rankers in your city.\' the officer thought to himself.

"Timmy, make sure to check who the other two rankers with her are, I wasn\'t informed about their identity yet."

"Copy!"

A boy that can cut giants in one slash. A young man that can kill hundreds in mere moments. And finally, the girl who killed more than a thousand monsters using such a controlled mass destruction attack...

"My mistress!" the black haired demon called out for Raven.

"Uhm?"

"Are we going to fight on another battlefield?"

"Yea, we\'re going to another province actually. My friend told me there were several portals in Halifax - Nova Scotia, as well. And while they\'re close to the ocean, rankers are being sandwiched between two main portals.

"A huge water-type monster has appeared from the portal near the shoreline and two S rankers are struggling with that.

"And as if that wasn\'t enough, a floating island that was generated by a portal also appeared above the same city making the fight even harder."

"I see. That explains why you casted that massive destruction spell." the black haired demon said thoughtfully, as he was trying to approach the subject stealthily as his master had instructed.

*Cough*

"Ahem, ah- yea, of course that\'s why!" Truth was that Raven only hated the fact that the demon she summoned was doing, so easily, what she has struggled to do before.

"My mistress," the red demon called this time as he flew next to Raven.

Currently, both demons had their wings unfurled while flying next to Raven who had simply solidified mana around her feet, forming mana boots, while guiding them through the air.

She was basically air skating using mana boots, and her incredible mana control.

"Calcer? What\'s up?"

"Can I please be your servant? I mean after we finish this mission?"

"Aw thank you so much for the thought," Raven said as she tried to remove the image of Calcer\'s old self from her memories. The demon has changed quite a bit after she\'d named him.

"But I can\'t do that." she continued, giving Calcer a metaphorical punch to the guts as he hadn\'t expected his mistress to refuse him

"I\'m sorry but it\'s not that I don\'t want you, it\'s just that I can\'t keep the Summoning for so long. Remember? I only formed a contract with you."

Hearing till the end, Calcer\'s expression relaxed at Raven\'s words. "Then it\'s ok. If it\'s you, my mistress, I\'m sure you\'ll be able to perform a complete summoning in no time!" the red haired demon was so cheerful with a toothy smile that made Raven change her outdated view of demons.

\'He\'s just like a child wanting someone to take care of them...\' she thought with a warm smile. "How about it then? Once I\'m able to do that, you\'ll be the first I summon."

"Uhm!" Calcer nodded with a big smile, "thank you, my mistress!"

"Can you please summon me too, my mistress?" said the black demon, partially because his master has instructed him to do so.

After all, he wanted to know more about this human girl.

"Ah, for sure, hehe."

"Thank you, my mistress!"

Raven wanted to tell them to call her by her first name, but she thought she\'d wait till she actually fully summons them, not when all that binds them was a weak contract.

"Alright, let\'s hurry up, people need us!"

The trip by car would take at least a day, but at the speed the trio was going and the fact that they were flying in a straight line meant they\'d be there in less than two hours.

- Nova Scotia, Halifax coast -

The coasts and beaches in Halifax would usually be the tourist\'s number one destination when visiting the area in the summer.

Even the locals enjoy the current warm atmosphere in the area since it\'s mostly snowing all the time.

However, that wasn\'t the case today as many bodies were laying around. Both human and alien.

The golden sand was died red and the blue sky was covered by a huge floating island that blocked the sun rays from reaching the surface.

An enormous giant alien that looked like a hybrid between a turtle and an octopus was wreaking havoc and killing rankers left and right.

The monster didn\'t have any special abilities in particular, however, it\'s structure and size made it qualify as an S rank entity as even S rankers were struggling to avoid being hit by one of its tentacles.

In addition to that, it\'s shell was built in a way similar to a water cannon. It could use the internal curves to suck water in from the ocean and pump that at high pressure.

Needless to say, that was deadly as highly pressured water could destroyed houses and skin people alive.

On top of the one monster army, there were hundreds of other monsters that were attacking from the sky around the floating island.

If one was to describe them, they\'d be a twisted form of harpies as they had humanoid bodies with feathery wings, but instead of a normal face, they had a weird liquid ball attached to their torsos.

The ball didn\'t have any specific features but rather looked like a plane sphere.

Other than their annoying flight ability, they had weapons that would use mana to produce long distance slash attacks. The weapons themselves varied in shape and structure.

"Sara! Catch!" A flying blonde haired girl yelled at another girl on the ground before she threw her a winged monster.

"Ahhhhhh!!!" The other girl yelled, scared, as she saw the monster getting closer by the second.

Panicking, she attempted to slap the incoming monster. But before her hand could touch the monster, the air around it twisted and spinned forming a whirlwind that sent it crashing against the ground.

"Stop doing that, Bella!" the girl was almost crying, "it\'s not funny!"

"Aw, come on..." Bella said sounding guilty, "you know Sara, you should have fun in battle, or else it\'ll be just us killing other lives."

"But I don\'t want to take their lives..." Sara was at her limits already and her conscious was telling at her to run away, "I don\'t want to fight!" Sarah yelled as her eyes started to tear up.

"Hey, there there," Bella descended down and gave Sara a pat on the head, "I\'ll make mango salad when we get home, It\'ll be my apology so please don\'t cry, ok?"

"But I-"

Before the girl could finish her sentence, a light flashed in her eyes as a loud crashing sound deafened her ears.

Looking at the source, she found herself looking at what she thought was once a ranker.

The girls couldn\'t even tell the body\'s gender as the upper have was missing and it all looked like a bloody mess.

Instantly afterwards, a couple of cannon shots could be heard as the area around them was filled with craters.

Bella didn\'t hesitate for a second before grabbing Sara who was standing still in shock by the shoulders and flying away.

\'No, no, NOOO!!\' Bella was yelling in her mind, \'how did it get here? I made sure we were close to the shore but away from both the huge squid monster and floating island.

\'I only wanted to help some people while training Sara, how did it come here?\'

Sparing a second to look behind her while even increasing her speed, she could see the huge monster getting close to their side of the shore as the rankers were trying to push it away from the populated areas.

\'STUPID EDA RA-\' Bella didn\'t get to finish her thought before noticing that the monster had fired another pressured water shot at them.

It was by accident of course, the monster was aiming for the rankers attacking it, but nonetheless, collateral damage is part of any battle.

Sara couldn\'t see it as she was being held with her face facing forward. But Bella on the other hand, could see the shot approaching them in slow motion.

\'Nooo... is that how we die?\' she found it disappointed, if anything, as not one soul would notice their disappearance.

Even though they were technically fighting, they were supposed to be away from action so no one would even know of their sacrifice.

\'Even evading is not an option. I\'m not fast enough... damn... well, at least Sara won\'t see it... I hope it\'s fast and not so painful. I\'m sorry, Sara, I\'ve failed you.\'

Event though her wings were still beating at full speed, they felt completely still to her just like everything else around her, except for the water ball approaching them.

BOOOMMM!!

-SssssssssssS- Bella couldn\'t tell if she was dead or not, but she was sure that if she was to live, her ears would suffer from a long term damage.

\'Eh? It doesn\'t hu-\' again, she didn\'t get to finish her thought before being interrupted, but this time she was thankful because it meant she was alive, together with Sara.

"HOLY SH*T!" a feminine voice yelled after the loud explosion, "water dude is not kidding, huh? That shot would\'ve easily taken down a skyscraper if aimed properly!"
