Hyouketsu Kyoukai no Eden Vol 1 Chapter 1

{1}

Bidding goodbye to Chef, who was waving her hands, Sheltis left the kitchen.

Upon hearing Eyriey talking about it in such a relaxed manner, Sheltis could not help but hug his head and moaned, "My head, which was kicked by Yuto earlier, have began to hurt again."

"...... Can I retract my statement?"

A strange sound rang through the meadows, a sound that makes one a.s.sociate it with the word 'curse'. 

The purple mist surrounding the Yuugenshu gave off light like an amethyst. Not long after, these light gradually turned into rays thinner than strands of hair. 

—Mateki? 

"Eyriey, run!" 

"Eh?" 

The rays wove themselves into a complicated spiral-shaped image, and the concentric circles were expanding outward. Eyriey was at lost on what to do, and stood rooted on the ground despite those circles expanding towards her direction. 

The violet light began to intensify in color, and began to materialize- 

"I'll not let you succeed!" 

At that instance, Sheltis tossed out the electric spear in his hands. 

*Cha*...... The sound of the spear stabbing into the soil. The thrown spear had pinned the Yuugenshuu onto the ground. The impact of the spear had actually caused the body of the Yuugenshu to be airborne for a brief moment. Due to the interference, the light that had engulfed the metal barbecue stand and was about to touch Eyriey, stopped expanding for a moment. 

At the same time, the originally violet light began to materialize. 

...... zz ...... zzzz............ 

"The barbecue stand?" 

The stand, that could easily withstand temperatures of nearly a thousand degrees, disintegrated in a flash, like a pile of sand collapsing. Upon witnessing that scene, Eyriey's face turned deathly pale. 

—Mateki. 

That term is used specially on the special abilities unique only to Yuugenshu. Decay, poison, comatose and mental corruption- it is an energy wave that erodes and contaminates all living things and items of the floating continent. As a strange curse-like sound is given out during its activation, it has been given the name 'Mateki'. 

"Eyriey, take this opportunity to start the engines!" 

"...... Didn't you just defeat it?" 

At the ends of Eyriey's sight, was the Yuugenshu pierced to the ground by the spear. 

"An attack like that can't defeat that thing- hurry!" 

Sheltis pointed towards the vehicle while he fixed his eyes on the monster with its mist. Yuugenshu are not something that can be easily defeated. In the past, they had been the things he was always fighting against, thus he knows that better than anyone else. 

...... zz ...... zzzz ............ zzzzzzzzzzzz ................! 

The tip of the electric spear which skewered the Yuugenshu had began to melt, and flowed onto the ground as a pool of molten metal. 

What was left, was the mist monster suffering not a single scratch. 

Those bright-red eyes became even fiercer, s.h.i.+ning like blood-red rubies.
