FINALLY

A loud alarm disrupted the busy street of Kyoto, everyone whos walking on the street lifts their head and sees the big monitor in the tallest building around them. The alarm is the signal that a dungeon has shown up somewhere and that everyone should take shelter. Apparently, the dungeon appeared far away from the city and it calms the citizen but it didn’t stop some of them from panic. A moment

later a lady with a casual appearance appears on the TV screen.

“A dungeon has appeared we advised everyone to take precautions." I repeat a dungeon has appeared and we advised everyone to take

precautions. “ she repeats those words twice in a calm demeanor.

“It's very far from us I think for the monster to reach this place it might take some time, also our hunters are on the move there’s no need to panic” a random guy with a muscular appearance commented.

Some bunch of adventurers who are also near agreed with him.

Meanwhile, the headquarters of the Hunters Association are getting ready.

A helicopter with at least 5 hunters inside had been deployed to the site.

"Gyaaaaaa… finally"I am out!  " A female voice echoed all over the place. She stretched her arms and checks her surrounding.

“Hmppp is this JAPAN?" She muttered this question to herself.  She heard the sounds of the

upcoming helicopter even tho it's still several kilometers away from her. She looks above but she couldn’t see anything apart from the blue skies almost covered by the thick branches and greeny leaves.

“I wonder what is that sounds but I am having a bad feeling about it. I should leave this place. “ She whispered and vanished in an instant. With her flash steps, she can travel few kilometers even in just a minute. She didn’t bother to look back after she left. After she disappears from the place, the Dungeon also disappears.

The hunters who arrived to check the area were astonished and confused at the same time.

For the Dungeon to disappear, means it has been cleared and since they believed they were the first to arrive at the scene it's very surprising that the dungeon disappeared in just a short period of time.

"Are you certain nobody’s here before us?"  Hiro, a B healer and level 35 asked his companions.

"Yes, I'm certain. We are the first to arrive here and even if there is someone before us it's impossible to clear the dungeons in just a few minutes after it appears. Even for an S CLASS hunter. Also at the moment, Akagami, the sole S class hunter in KYOTO, is currently in TOKYO for a conference." Hiro's teammate explains.

"We need to report this to the headquarter. Maybe they made a mistake". Hiro suggested as he couldn’t

comprehend what had just happened.

The team also agreed with him and decided to go back.

Meanwhile, Tomoe is already approaching the City at a very fast speed. She was surprised by the massive change of the place. She cuts the big trunks blocking her view when she arrived at the bottom of the forest and then she jumped off from 5 meters above the ground, from here on she needs to pretend to be normal or at least be normal.  The city is still few miles away, Tomoe knows that she cannot mix in with the residents with her current appearance and she doesn't want to catch anyone's attention either. She decided she needs to find a way to change especially her clothes. Instead of heading straight to the city Tomoe took a detour to the field side. She planned on stealing even simple clothing as she's currently wearing very ragged clothes from 99 years back. It doesn't really matter in the dungeon as she's always wearing the armor, besides this is the only souvenir she had from back then. She found a tiny house next to the rice field, as she approached slowly she heard a woman scream begging for help. She followed the voice and saw a gang of bandits harassing a girl probably in her mid-twenties. Despite her haggard appearance, the girl looks very attractive. She was hesitant at first whether to help the girl or not but then decided she should interfere as she couldn't take to watch the men ganging up on her. She noticed an old man all beat up on the ground almost unconscious.

"He is probably her father. Her thought while walking close to the men."

"Excuse me, do you know where I can purchase some clothes? Do you know some shops near here?"  She asked casually and stand in front of them.

For a moment the men stop and lift their heads towards her. The girl used the chance to escape and run towards her father.

The bandits were surprised nobody noticed her presence, not until she started talking.

One man grinned and faced her. He then grabbed her hair and smelled her neck.

"This is a very lucky day for us boys, two birds in one shot. The bandit shouted and laugh.

His companions also laugh and then picked up their equipment on the ground. Another guy licked his sword like a mad man and walks towards her.

"Ara.... Ara.... I was just asking for help, how can you bully a weak girl like me". Acting teary-eyed and afraid.

"She looks dirty but she’ll be ok after cleaning her". One bandit implied

"Bring them with us!" A guy from behind appeared.

"A very bulky man probably the leader". Tomoe’s thought after the rest of the bandits agreed with him.

"Tsk. You know I really hate it when someone, not my friend stays close to me like this". She's referring to the guy who's up to now still clinging to her and keeps smelling her like a dog.

Before the guy could talk his head parted from his body and fell on the ground.

Everyone was surprised, the girl who was shouting for help earlier fainted out of shock.

Even the rest of the bandits were incapacitated for a moment.

The boss is the first one to regain his senses.

"You bitch!!! What have you done?"!!!!  Shouting in frustration.

Araaaaaaa....araaa .... My hand slipped. Oh my.  Acting innocent and fragile.

Nobody saw what happened because no normal human can catch up with her speed.

Kill her!!!!  The boss shouted and commanded his team.

The bandits prepared themselves to fight. One ****** his swords towards her and continue slashing her hoping to land a hit. In just a few minutes the bandits one by one fell on the ground lifeless. The boss was in raged seeing his underlings being defeated.

"Oh, my.... so weak. How can they be so weak?" She used a sardonic smile to mock them.

It was then the boss realized that she's not normal.

"You're a monster!!!!" The boss fell on his knees. He then crawls backward as Tomoe approaches him slowly.

"Noooo....: don't get near me!!!! Please." He shouted while swinging his sword in the air.

You're a monster!!! Getaway!  He keeps shouting like crazy. Unfortunately, Tomoe is also releasing a dark aura around her which affects the weaker one. Those without strong will reacts to her aura and will go crazy. The boss right now totally lost his sanity.

" Arrrrgggg........ What a pity." She lost her interest in him seeing his current state right now.

She swang her arms and was about to slap the leader but he lost consciousness even before her hand landed.

Geeeeeeezzzzz!!!  Annoyed tone as she's not satisfied with the fight.

The only person who saw everything was that girl's father. Although he was beaten up he was conscious.

He watched Tomoe picked up everyone’s corpses and pile them up. She was planning to burn them.

"Hmmpppp since they are bandits I should check their belongings. They might have some valuable items I could sell." Her eyes turn to gold out of excitement.

"****!!! These idiots are broke!!! They have nothing!" She complains upon checking and found nothing.

"Grrrrrrr...." aggravated tone. She then lit her fingers like a lighter and the fire spreads among the corpses.

"Ahhhhhmmmm. Excuse me. Thank you for saving us. Can we repay you in any way?"  The girl's father appeared beside her.

She totally forgets about them her mind was preoccupied with the bandits.

"Ohhhh. My....... You're hurt. Let me heal you". Suddenly her hand starts glowing and the wounds and bruises from the old man's body are slowly fading.

Thank you so much. The old man bowed his head.

"It's fine." She answered with a smile.

"Please let me offer you something we don't have enough but my wife is a good cook. If you don't mind can we invite you for lunch?" fear can be still seen in the old man's face probably because of what he saw.

Upon hearing the word lunch her stomach started growling.

"Hahaha. Well, I guess I can't refuse." Her face was all red feeling embarrassed by the situation.

The old man smiles and assists her inside the house.

Kira opens her eyes slowly. Her vision is still blurry but she can recognize her worried mother looking down on her.

Oh, thank God you're awake. Her mother exclaimed.

Mother! The bandits!!! Father......... Where is father???? She forcibly lifts her body from the bed.

Relax your father is fine. She tried to calm her and again put her to bed.

"That girl.!!" Upon remembering Tomoe.

"She saved us. She saved your father. The bandits were all gone". Her mother explained.

Ohhhhhh. Thanks, God. But where is she? I need to thank her. Kira insists

"She's in the kitchen, we offered her food and lend her your clothes to repay the kindness.

"But my clothes....she looked away". She's feeling embarrassed for someone who saved their life her clothes might not be worth offerings. She doesn't have any fancy clothes. Her family is barely surviving from the crops. And now the drought is threatening all their crops. It's been two years since the last rain. Most of the farmers inhabiting the area are almost gone.

"Don't worry. She seems a nice person she doesn't mind. Why don't you meet her?" She's still in the kitchen with your father". Her mother suggested.

She nods and then stands up and walks towards the Kitchen.

Sister. Thank you so much for saving me and my father we owe you our life. Also, I'm so sorry if we cannot offer you anything fancy.  Kira appeared at the door and started talking nonstop.
