Mythical Slayer: Mythical Girls Contract

"So, what do you want to ask? I can't say I will be able to answer all of your questions, but I will not tell a lie." Kai said.

"It's alright. I only want to ask some simple stuff." Griffin replied. "Let me set a soundproof barrier quickly. Don't worry, and it's harmless." He took out a Talisman paper from his suit pocket.

It was smaller than the one Kai had taken from the Slayer he killed. But as he had no deep knowledge about Talismans, he watched Griffin wave his hand in the air in interest.

He noticed a small blue transparent string attached from his hand to the Talisman that got suspended in mid-air.

[That's Spirit Power, Kai.] Amber talked directly into his mind, answering his question. Because it wasn't the first time, he didn't freak out and just nodded his head slightly.

"I see." It was really interesting. In just 3 days, he found out a lot more than he could've hoped. And he believed he would find a lot more interesting things in the future.

'It makes me want to get used to Supernatural World faster.' He mussed.

"Silent air. Please block all the sound." Griffin made a gesture with his right hand, putting it in front of his mouth with his index and middle finger put together, then pointed it at the Talisman after a light blue fire lit on the tip of his fingers.

A gust of wind hit Kai and Amber, ruffling their clothes, as soon as Griffin touched the Talisman.

"It's done." He said, turning to Kai. The Talisman stayed in mid-air without any string attached.

Nothing changed with the area surrounding them. Kai even tried to look up to the sky to see whether it turned purple, like when the usual barrier activated or not. The sky was still blue.

"Are you sure?" Kai asked because he couldn't really find the difference from before.

"It has activated, I am sure. Look at this Talisman. There is a light blue fire burning its tip, no? That means the soundproof barrier is successfully activated. It will disappear once the Talisman burns up completely. Usually, it will last for 30 minutes for a Talisman this small, but it will be enough."

For some reason, Griffin explained how the Talisman worked to Kai. It was a habit he brought over from his daily life. After he was done explaining, he froze and realized something.

'Oh shit. I explained some basic things to him because he asked me.' He slowly looked at Kai but found him nodding with his hand on the chin.

"I see." Kai muttered. "Alright, ask your questions." He continued, hiding the fact that he was secretly happy because he found something interesting. As Griffin had said, the Talisman was burnt slowly by the light blue fire.

It wasn't an actual fire. But instead, it was a Spirit Power shaped like a fire. It was a common practice to activate a barrier Talisman with it, and that was also why the barrier Talisman would stop working when the one activating it was unconscious or dead.

Spirit Power would disappear when they weren't controlled. Or so was how Amber explained it to him through Telepathy.

"Ah, yes. Questions." Griffin nodded. A single bead of sweat dripped from his forehead. "Were you attacked by two Slayers two days, by any chance? Both are men with brown hair and robust bodies." He asked.

"Yes, I was attacked by them. If you asked for their fate, then they aren't in this world anymore, is the only thing I can say to you." Kai replied confidently. He wasn't afraid the Slayer would harm him after all the effort he put up to wait for Kai.

He knew Griffin just asked for confirmation. On top of that, he only killed them in self-defense and left no proof for police to pinpoint him as a murderer.

Besides, the Slayer who attacked him identified himself as a troublemaker after some… talk with him. It should be no problem.

"I see." Griffin nodded. As Kai had expected, he didn't seem to have a problem with him killing the two troublemakers.

"Then about yesterday. I noticed a barrier was erected around Chinatown. Can you explain what's going on? Just a rough explanation for my report to the base, please…"

Somehow, in Kai's eyes, Griffin began to look like a hopeless person. His dignity slowly left, and he was reduced to someone who begged him to tell him a story.

Kai could just make an absurd story, and Griffin would believe it. He knew that would be the case.

So to break the ice and tense atmosphere between them, he decided to try it.

"We're making out inside the barrier yesterday." He said casually.

"Pfft!" Griffin did a spit-take. "R-Really?!"

Amber giggled happily from behind, trying her best to hold her laughter. Even Kai laughed a little as he saw the Slayer's face turn into disbelief.

"Of course not. Hahaha." He still laughed. "Who in their right mind does that inside a barrier? It was just a joke because you're too stiff."

But he noted something important. Griffin was really a pushover, and a barrier could be seen from afar.

'We need to be careful if we want to set one in the future.' He made a mental note to himself.

"R-Right. Ha-hahaha…" Griffin forced a bitter laugh. However, for him, that joke was far from funny. It was horrifying that a man was making out with a Mythical Beast. A cold sweat even poured from his back when Kai mentioned it.

"A-Anyway. Can you please answer seriously this time, umm… Chef?"

"Alright. It's just a Malice appeared on our way home, so I took care of it." Kai replied casually, and Amber nodded from behind to back his story.

"A Malice?!" Griffin seemed to be surprised. "How big is it?"

"It's just a small one." He shrugged his shoulders. He really didn't agree with Amber calling the 3 meters big Malice a small one, but he could only describe it as such if Amber said so. She was the one who knew Supernatural World more than him. "Just 3 meters big. Pretty small, right?" He said with a small laugh.

"… Right." Griffin's jaw dropped, then he recovered quickly and smiled bitterly. "It's a small one, indeed."

"Is that all your questions?"

"Ah, yes. That's all I need to report to the base. I am sorry for troubling you, but it is my duty as I am the one given the task to report anything related to Supernatural happening around this Chinatown."

"I understand," Kai replied. He didn't expect Griffin to be some sort of a supervisor or watchman in this area. "That means we are going to meet a lot from now on, right? Let's take care of each other, okay?"

It would be beneficial for him to have a connection with a Slayer, just like in this case. He would be able to tell him the truth without hiding something.

Not to mention, a Slayer definitely had some interesting news about the Supernatural World, so he would be able to ask for those stories from him if they had a good relationship with each other.

Griffin also looked like someone at his age, so he definitely wanted to become his friend.

"L-Let's take care of each other." He said.
