Heh… I guess lady luck still considers me his enemy thought Gentaro as he saw the snow like creatures in the basement.
“Hee! An intruder Ho!”
“Let’s kill him Hee!, let’s kill him Ho!”
“This is the sacred vault of the King! Hee-Ho!”
They noticed the man’s presence and then three of the creatures run after him.
This is bad, gotta retreat!, thought the man as he run away, not the counter, not the back entrance but upstairs, a bad idea that he would later regret. Luckily he ice demon was quite a slow runner.
One of the Jack Frost followed him while the other two noticed the clients at the counter and scared them away, at the same time, the door to the basement was closed and sealed with a strong ice.
As Gentaro run his cellphone buzzed and with a flash of light the Angel showed its form once again.
The man was taken aback and almost fell from the stairs, this small moment of distraction allowed the Jack Frost to impact him with a ball of ice.
Gentaro screamed as his mouth expelled blood, he was about to fell but the Angel took his hand and lead him through the stairs.
“A bad… moment for you to show up…. Whaat do you want?!” asked Gentaro in cold and pain.
“I told thee, I’m bound to thee… Let me treat thy wounds” said the Angel with a solemn tone as it raised its hand healing the wounds of Gentaro.
“Heh! That’s a nice trick you can do… what else you can?” asked and as if the application were to be sentient, the phone buzzed and showed the “Skills” of the Angel.
This guy… can’t fight?... Thought the man disappointed. However, clever as he was he quickly developed a strategy.
“This could be of use, listen pretty boy…..” said to the Angel. Gentaro told of his plan and the being nodded its head in agreement.
It was a luck to begin with that only one of the Jack Frost pursued him, otherwise he would be doomed, still the plan was risky.
“Where are you Hee? Are you hiding Ho!?” Asked the Jack Frost as it looked through the rooms of the second floor.
“Over here ice cone!!!” Exclaimed Gentaro from inside the bathroom.
“A human doesn’t insult me like that Ho! I’ll kill you!” Exclaimed the Jack Frost as it fired a ball of ice that blasted through the bathroom’s door and impacted Gentaro. The creature smiled however it wasn’t the only one. Gentaro was smiling as well.
Rakukaja, the skill to increase the natural resistance of a living being, it wasn’t a big change, but if Gentaro could withstand the first attack of the enemy, he sure could withstand the second one, more if covered by the door. It was still a strong hit that almost threw him back yet he did his best to maintain his position.
Dia, the magic to remove wounds and accelerate the healing process of the body, even while not suited to fight, this was one of the Angel’s great assets. The quick and risky strategy the man developed in the few seconds was simple, to increase his resistance, withstand a hit of the creature and then be healed again all so he could have a perfect chance to counter attack.
However a body made of ice would not be greatly wounded by a gun, thus resorting to an improvised and wishful move, Gentaro offered the Jack frost a smile.
On his left hand there was a lighter, on his right hand an aerosol. The Jack Frost could only look dumbfounded before understanding what that means. Soon, as if it were to be a flamethrower, Gentaro charged against the creature wielding his improvised weapon. Both the fire and the iced body entered in contact and a steam formed. The scream of the Jack Frost could only mean that the plan was working and the creature was slowly stepping backwards as Gentaro advanced. However, although wounded, the creature was not finished and once the man run of “ammo” the Jack Frost found its way to counterattack.
“Now I’m really angry Hee!” Exclaimed, however Gentaro smiled once again.
“Go, Angel!” exclaimed as the winged being showed in front of the Jack Frost and physically attacked him with the same palm strike it used against Gentaro before, a fairly weak attack, however…
Jack Frost fell, it was at the border of the stairs, the exact point where Gentaro lead it and thus although the attack of Angel was weak it pushed the creature and made it roll painfully through the stairs.
Gentaro could not lost any more second, he quickly run towards his room and picked hidden under his bed’s cushion a handgun which he hid within his pants, inside his closet a submachinegun and lying over the wall a black sheath containing a katana that he kept as an ornament and although he never used it he did know how.
He made sure he had all his money in his pockets and exclaimed.
“Angel! You handle the landing!” and then the man broke through the window and jumped from the second store, normally not a big height, but his house was very tall, even above standards. Thus, he would surely break a bone or two in the landing, yet the Angel carefully caught him.
Gentaro was breathing heavily yet he still had energy to perform a fist bump with the Angel.
Even when tired he could not lost time, hence he run away from what used to be his previous office and home and was now the base of a bunch of walking ice cream.
