Aaron (narration):
As we left the lab, we found a map showing where the fire exits are. Bingo! We went to survey the exit to make sure it’s safe. And of course it fucking isn’t!! A couple of large archaisms were guarding it, looking like they were ready to shoot.
Aaron:
Let’s fuck them up!
Yingli:
Earth guard!
…!!
Aaron:
You’re gonna pass out if you keep using arts without your Xipha!
Yingli:
Don’t worry about me! They’re coming!
Aaron (narration):
We played dodge ball with their bullets and got grazed a few times. Thanks to Yingli’s art, we didn’t get hurt.
Aaron:
Hah! I figured out the attack rhythm!
Yingli:
Me as well!
Aaron:
Let’s cut them down!
Aaron (narration):
We danced around all the bullets and landed a few hits on the joints of the archaisms.
Aaron / Yingli:
Blazing Slash! / Mirage Slash!
Aaron / Yingli:
Shuangxing Huangren!!
Aaron:
Just a little more!
Aaron (narration):
We aimed our last hit on the glass eye of the archaisms. We had to dance through another round of bullets.
Aaron:
Stab right through that glass!!
Yingli:
Understood!!
Aaron / Yingli:
Haaaaah!!
Aaron (narration):
Both of the archaisms now have a sword stuck right through its head.
Aaron / Yingli:
Spark Edge / Argent Thorn!
Aaron (narration):
Throwing that art at them did the job. We got away before they blew up in our faces.
Yingli:
(Breathing hard) That seems to be the last of them here.
…
I am sensing mana again.
Aaron:
Let’s check that exit.
Yingli:
Ofuda…
…!! I hear gears and some buzzing above us.
Aaron:
Get ready for another fight!
Aaron (narration):
I blasted the ofuda off with an art and sure enough, small archaisms dropped on us. This is really starting to piss me off! Fucking hell!! Yingli took my hand.
Aaron:
Yingli…
Yingli:
Deep breaths, we can push through!
Aaron:
…!!
Hah, I can’t lose my cool now! We will trash these things as many times as it will take!!
Aaron (narration):
We quickly took care of the archaisms and made our way to the fire exit on the packaging side of the facility. By this time, we pretty much got the layout of the facility down.
Yingli:
Now that I am focused, I can sense a signature of mana down there.
Aaron:
I bet all of your clothes another ofuda will be sealing that exit.
Yingli:
Eh? A-Aaron!! When did this become a gamble?
Aaron:
Just messing with ya, hot stuff!
You’re too cute!
Yingli:
(Sighing)
Aaron:
…So are you going to bare it all for me when we get to the exit? ~ 🎵
Yingli:
A-Aaron… please stop…
Aaron:
🎵🎵🎵
Yingli:
He- hehe ~ 🎵
Thank you, Aaron. I’ve never had this much fun during a mission.
Aaron:
…!!
Aaron (narration):
Holy crap!! Where did that come from? Shit! She’s just too hot like this! I took Yingli in for a kiss, I savored the moment.
Yingli:
Mmm…
Aaron:
Let’s get going.
Aaron (narration):
We got to the exit and sure enough, a few archaisms were there waiting for us. Here we go again.
Aaron:
Let’s get this over with!
Blink and you’ll miss it!
Rise for me! Phoenix Dance!!!
POV change to Yingli
Yingli (narration):
I feel my heart racing. The power and beauty of Aaron’s Phoenix Dance is unmatched! I will have to be prepared to follow up. Focus now, Yingli.
Aaron:
Left some for you, hot stuff!
Yingli:
…
Piercing silver thorns…
Your time is up! Moonlight Phantom Dance!
POV Change to Aaron
Aaron (narration):
~🎵~🎵
Ah… that should do it! Yingli’s Moonlight Phantom Dance isn’t just for show. She’s hitting their every weak point! Damn!
Yingli:
…
Aaron:
I fucking knew you could do it! That was hot!
Yingli:
Thank you, Aaron.
Aaron:
Now let’s take care of the ofuda.
Aaron (narration):
As we approached the exit, sure enough that thing was there, sealing the door shut. More archaisms dropped when I blasted it off. It didn’t take long for us to wipe them out. We opened the door.
