Editing City Series:Volume8a Chapter6 (section)

===Myst’s Sight Mode: In Eastpointe, East DT===

'''<Myst’s Over Reload>

Myst, the artist in a white dress, shouted from the center of the road in front of the Yard.

“Have a taste of the pain I felt being reduced to a mere Anon2 while awaiting Master Suedomsa’s return!”

The Yard collapsed in an instant.

The destruction came courtesy of the giant floating hammer.

The power of the metal swung straight down.

It crushed the wind and dropped hard onto the building.

The contact and the crash of destruction were simultaneous. The hammer crushed the 3-story Yard HQ all the way down to the basement. The sound of breaking dirt and concrete was closer to a crashing wave than a rumble.

And after the hammer reached the basement…

'''<Animated Image Settings: Loop Number: 3>

It struck thrice.

The hammer obediently vanished into thin air once its mission was complete.

Meanwhile, similar explosive noises erupted from all over the city.

Every single Yard station had received the same treatment.

Alarms rang from every part of the city.

And some new sounds suddenly joined them.

The sounds were like collections of wood and rock bursting into the sky and of mounds of sand being broken through.

Those sounds came from three distinct locations.

Three explosions of destruction erupted into the city and giant dark knights stood from within.

The knights looked to the sky and released deafening screams.

Their voices were answered by the citywide alarms.

'''<Myst’s Over Zoom: Full Sight Open>

The carriages traversing the road around her came to a stop and the cars stopped their wheels.

People left their homes to see what was happening and fled after noticing the knights consuming the city.

Cries and smoke rose into the sky and a destructive wind swept down the roads.

Everything shouted louder and louder as if to confirm its existence among all the confusion.

Myst, the cause of the chorus of screams, chaos, and destruction, spoke in front of the Yard HQ. Her voice was not like the many screams. It was a cheerful thing. She laughed loud enough to be heard over all the confusion.

'''“Ah ha ha!”



'''<Mysts’s Over Zoom>

Myst followed up her laughter by opening her mouth and her will and shouting into the sky above.

“Ecstasy!”

She held her left hand to her mouth, bent backwards, and laughed.

“Did you see that, Mekton!? I didn’t even need your protection!”

“I feel like…I wasted my time…coming,” said the large man in the navy blue military uniform standing behind her. He gave a deep nod. “You are…useful. I am…not. You are…not like me. So you are…useful.”

“You better believe I’m useful!” she shouted, slamming the bottom of her Mouse Device against the ground. “In terms of flowers, an artist’s true power is like the beautiful white cherry blossom!”

She spread her arms to embrace the sky and she spoke loudly into the vortex of chaos there.

“An author’s duty is to provide everyone with the same set of values. And everyone who saw this masterpiece must have had the same thing burned into their psyche! It’s like a dream come true!”

After finishing her statement, she nodded at the echo of her own voice.

It was a deep nod of satisfaction followed by a triumphant snort. Then she inhaled in preparation to say more.

But at that very moment, a different voice raced down the street. It was a loud voice brimming with bared anger.

“You’re no artist!” roared the voice.

A man stood on the roof of the convenience store across the street from the Yard and to her left.

'''<Myst’s Over Zoom>

He had short black hair, he wore a black tank top and white shorts, and his musculature was slender but well toned.

He blatantly clicked his tongue.

“You insult cherry blossoms by comparing them to a moron who mistakes silly games for being useful!”

“Who are you!?”

“Mh,” he grunted before answering. “I am Aoe Shouzou, GASAS Team 4 Commander. My Dance Combat style is the Kobayashi School and my martial arts rank is Superior!”
