"Tch, I already wasted almost 5 minutes with lucifer and I still have to cross almost 7 km to reach Toyama park, this will take a lot if I use normal transportation damn it, I won't get there in time" Muttered Yuki while thinking about what to do to quickly reach his destination.

By normal means, he would get to the Sasazuka station, take the train that leads to Shinjuku, it also passes near Toyama park, but the whole journey would still take at least 15 minutes. That's normal, but thanks to the fucking devil he was just talking to, the Shinjuku station was still undergoing some repairs after the underground attack so it might not even be working right and he didn't waste time checking…

At that point, the mission would be as good as over, and saving Emilia might become impossible and he would lose his sweet attributes which was something he couldn't afford!

"Fine, we are going to do it GTA style" muttered Yuki before he retrieved the cat mask he wears during his underground fights before he started running down the street at a terrifying speed while avoiding people as much as possible.

Of course, he considered going on foot but he would still arrive late since he wasn't fast enough unfortunately.

After this day, many residents of the Sasazuka district would report that they saw a wicked ghost appearing around their street with its eerie long white hair fluttering in the wind behind it…

After he reached the main street, Yuki started to notice an increase in the number of cars, and without hesitation, he located a good car that was heading in the general direction of Shinjuku and just as it was about to pass by him. Yuki immediately used his [Quick step] skill to arrive at the back seat of the car.

After getting in, he finally had a chance to glance at the driver… It was a beautiful woman with long black hair and purple eyes and she appeared to be in her late twenties, but he didn't recognize her 'Sorry for doing this to you but it's necessary' thought Yuki as he cleared his throat and said with what he thought was a soothing voice "Miss please make a right turn here, we need to go to Shinjuku"

However, the woman didn't hear it this way and her heart almost leaped out of her chest as she almost crashed by losing control of the wheel and Yuki barely fixed the direction of the car before they hit a pedestrian...

Meanwhile, the woman quickly glanced at her rear-view mirror and saw the masked figure standing beside her, and its ghostly deep eyes staring deep down her soul…

"AAAAA" The woman screamed and she was about to press the breaks of the car but she felt something sharp against her neck as Yuki's soothing voice sounded again "Please don't' stop, I really need this ride, someone is in danger and I need to get their soon"

'Motherfucker, I'm the one in danger here' thought the woman in her mind as her fear increased with her life under direct threat so she didn't press the breaks and turned in the direction of Shinjuku….

"Thank you, just think of yourself as a taxi driver for a few minutes, I will leave after we get there… Oh and please speed up as much as possible" said Yuki putting down a 10000 yen bill on the front seat while letting out a sigh as he saw the woman was probably overwhelmed by her survival instinct which made her begin to calm down and analyze her situation while driving as fast as she could.

"Who are you? W-Why are you doing this? Why did you pick my car? And how did you get In? " asked the woman all of a sudden overwhelming Yuki with her questions…

'It seems she's still nervous despite my efforts to calm her down' thought Yuki after hearing her questions completely ignoring the fact that he appeared out of nowhere inside her car and even put the kitchen knife he stole a while ago from Maou and Ashiya in her neck to threaten her…

"Who I am doesn't matter, just know that you are actually doing a good deed and you will be safe, don't worry I won't harm you" said Yuki with a smile, but the poor woman only thought that the man behind her was the creepiest thing she ever met.

'Yea sure, that's what every kidnapper would say before he disposes of their target in a shallow grave' she thought before she replied to him with a nod and followed his instructions… Yuki quickly memorized the fastest route to the warehouse from Lucifer's 2D map thanks to his drawing talent that enhanced his memory, so his directions were the fastest route they could take to their destination!

But suddenly, He watched as she retrieved a cigarette and lit it up while driving with the same fast speed using one hand and even changing gears like that which made Yuki's heart shake slightly…

'It seems I found a strong woman… yea definitely strong and not a crazy one…. Speaking of strong and crazy, I wonder how Emilia's doing' Yuki was starting to get worried as time tickled down and he started to think of his plans when he gets there…

Meanwhile, a few minutes before Yuki received his mission, Emilia was enjoying her lunch break outside with her friend and co-worker Rika Suzuki.

"Oy Emi, you seem to be getting lost in thought a lot recently? What's wrong? Are you still traumatized by the earthquake incident?" asked Rika worried after observing Emilia's strange behavior for a while. However, the latter simply shook her head and replied "No, not really" 'It seems like I'm letting my emotions out a lot…' thought Emilia while letting ou a sigh.

"Oh, then this only means you are thinking about someone! Who's it who's it? How could you hide something so juicy like this from your dear friend" said Rika with a cheeky smile which made Emilia's face redden slightly and she pinched her cheek in retaliation "Where did this come from?" Asked Emilia.

Rika pouted as she messaged her cheek and replied with a sad voice "I mean, recently you always seem so absentminded for some reason"

Emilia was slightly shocked since she herself didn't notice her behavior and after remembering who she keeps thinking about, her cheeks reddened slightly, and replied "It's nothing, I just get distracted easily lately, don't worr…'

As if true to her words, Emilia suddenly stopped what she was saying and thanks to her enhanced hearing, she could hear a distant scream of terror echoing from the distance so her heroic instincts quickly activated and she stood up to her feet saying "I will be back shortly, wait for me here" Before she started running in the direction she heard the scream 'Is this the doing of one of the demons?'

"Emi wait!" Yelled Rika, but by this point, Emilia was long gone…

After running for a while, Emilia arrived near an empty alley, and stopped, her senses were telling her that something was wrong around here, and through her experience, she could faintly smell the lingering odor of blood… something she was very familiar with, and it was coming from a huge dumpster.

After approaching it carefully, she suddenly felt her instinct screaming at her and she jumped to the side to dodge whatever was attacking her from above before she turned around and to her shock, standing at her previous position was none other than the purple-haired girl she met with Yuki in Akihabara.

"Oh, it seems like my guess was correct, you are not a normal human, of course, you are not, such heavenly smell can't come from a normal human" Said Rize with a crazed smile while sniffing the air around her that still had some of Emilia's lingering smell like a sick pervert…

"Who are you?" Asked Emilia while inside she was thinking 'This is bad, I'm almost fully depleted out of mana and Emerada still hadn't found a way to restore it… What should I do'?

"Me? I'm Rize, nice to meet you" Said Rize with a slight bow "Now please come with me, or I will have to use force"

'It seems I can only ask for help' thought Emilia as she tried to take out her phone to call Yuki, but the moment she retrieved it out of her pocket, Rize appeared instantly behind her and took it out of her hand prompting Emilia to use all of her remaining magic to regain some of her power.

Rize witnessed with wide eyes as her prey's magenta hair turned as white as snow and a holy sword manifested out of nowhere in her hand as she lunged at her with terrifying speed.

"Interesting" muttered Rize, and to Emilia's surprise, something she never experienced before or expected suddenly happened, The normal-looking human girl in front of her suddenly had her eyes transformed into blood-red eyes, and a red sharp tentacle immerged from her back and blocked her swords easily.

"What in the hell are you?" Muttered Emilia before she made some distance between her and Rize, and the latter simply smiled and said "This should be the least of your worries"

Then, they exchanged tens of blows in just a few seconds and Emilia who was burning through her magic was slowly losing the edge in this fight, but she still felt like she had a chance to escape. But, it was all crushed when Rize suddenly smiled mysteriously and said "Enough playing for now, we are going to have all the fun we want later when we are on our own"

Then to Emilia's despair, another tentacle appeared from Rize's back which cemented the result of this battle, Emilia's escape path was cut off and soon enough, Rize, pierced through both her legs so that she can't escape anymore and the smell of Emilia's blood almost drove her crazy and made her eat her right there and then but she held herself back despite all of the cells in her body screaming for her to devour such a delicious prey that would make her stronger!

So, she quickly picked up Emilia whose hair turned back to its magenta color, and kept screaming in pain for help to no avail as they both disappeared and Rize took her to the abandoned warehouse which is when Yuki received his mission…

And then, Rize started implementing all kinds of sick torture, both psychological and physical upon Emilia to satisfy her sick urges and her curiosity about the weird power she witnessed…

Meanwhile, back at the car, Yuki and the dark-haired woman finally arrived near the abandoned warehouse, and Yuki frowned when he saw that his timer was at 19 minutes.

'Is he taking me here to kill me?' Thought the woman in fear, but Yuki simply opened the door and left the car while saying "Thank you for the ride, I will repay you if I can in the future, but you should leave now, leave as far as possible from this place"

The woman suddenly felt relieved seeing that her worst thought didn't come true and she couldn't help but stare at the fading back of this masked person curious about his identity, but her face suddenly turned pale in fear as she could hear the muffled sound of the scream of a woman coming from the warehouse and her heart started to beat even faster at the thought of what was happening inside so she quickly started driving away while calling the police…

After Yuki entered the warehouse, he could hear Rize's crazed laughter as she mocked Emilia "hahahaha you are still not talking, do you probably think someone will come and save you?"

Emilia didn't respond and simply gritted her teeth from the sheer pain she was feeling, but Rize could see the coldness in her eyes, the girl in front of her wasn't afraid of death!

"Fine then, we still have a long way to go" said Rize with a twisted smile but her nose suddenly scrunched as she felt like a pile of shit was shoved up her nose and she also felt that it was familiar so she quickly turned around and saw a thin young man slowly approaching her with a smile on his face as he said gently "Hi there beauty" at this point, Yuki removed his mask since he didn't find it necessary.

Rize was annoyed even more, because he was clearly looking at Emilia when he said that and not her, but unlike her, Emilia's eyes were wide in surprise and she even forget about all of the pain she was feeling as she stared at the figure in front of her in a daze and her eyes slowly started tearing up…
