Akihiko slowly opens his eyes and sees the light flickering a bit. He starts to float.“That’s a feeling I’m aware of…” he says and looks at his hands and feet in his astral form. Suddenly something comes flying and dashes into his body. A white creature which brought nostalgia to him.“Pei…” and the white object disappears. He closes his eyes and thanks Pei for his sacrifice and while floating he hears someone speaking outside the operation theatre. It was Ritsu and Seirei.“…stopping at an arm this time?”“Tch.”“What…?” says Akihiko while leaning on the door to try to hear them distinctly but they leave.“What did I just hear? I feel like it was a bad time to wake up… Anyhow, I need to wake up in my real body somehow.” He says while attempting to re-enter his actual body which was sleeping with an oxygen mask and a lot of wires hanging from his body.“I was really roughed up there. I still have to grow… I have to before I put those around me in danger.” He float

Hiding in anticipation, Seirei is seen inside one of the classrooms of the buildings under the teacher’s desk. “Alright… Now’s a really good time for one of them to pop-up… I really want to ask them who they’re being led by.” Seirei then takes out his phone and sends a message to Yasuhiro. [Where are you? Is it the leader who got you?] A reply arrives about 40 seconds after the message went across. [Yeah. He’s strong. I’ll need your help. There enemies here lots.] Seirei looks at the message unconvinced and types- [Do you think I’m dumb? Even a child can type better than that… This is 1st division commander and I command you to stand down] [Don’t care. We’ve sided with the monkey.] [You idiots don’t even treat him with respect after joining his side… DO YOU ACTUALLY THINK I’M A BEING OF LOW IQ?!!] [Yes.] “What?” says Seirei and the teacher’s desk flies away completely exposing his location. “Well, sh*t. Guess I’ve gotta fight then.” Seirei stands up on

Akihiko gets up from his seat in the empty classroom. The sun had gone down and moonlight filled the room. The classroom was a mess with chairs and desks scattered and tossed over. While leaning on his bench, he looks outside the window and says-“This is school… What a drag it must’ve been. Well!” says Akihiko and gets up from his seat, “At least not anymore!!!” and he leaves the classroom while laughing maniacally. During day-time in the abandoned building,“Here have some more! Aya~!” says Makimi as she tries to serve curry for Ayame.“I’m done senpai! I really am! Feed Natsuko! She’ll eat it…”“(Bleurgh)…” pukes Natsuko and asks them while pointing at the dead tentacle monster, “HOW ARE YOU GUYS ABLE TO EAT IN PRESENCE OF THAT?!”“Natsuko~! Sit here! I’ve told you countless times that during jobs such environments become common and it shouldn’t bother you. If you don’t want to eat the food your dear nee-chan prepared for you then you can go home!” and Makimi pouts.“Alri

Akihiko’s home. It was morning and the Sun shone bright through the window. Akihiko opens his eyes wide and says-“Good morning world!” take a small pause and looks at his hands and says, “Ah… I’m back in my body.”[Author’s Note: Now, to be more accurate the other Akihiko will be called ‘the other thing’ whenever he pops through the story.] He goes to the washroom brushes and splashes his face with water. Slowly making his way to the kitchen and making sure his mom isn’t awake, he grabs whatever he can from the fridge to eat and then goes to the main door with his bag. He packs a knife from the kitchen too. He grabs money from his mom’s purse and heads for the main door. After wearing his shoes, he gets up and goes to open the door.“Leaving?” asks his mom who was watching him go about.“Um… Well, how do I put this?”“Just be safe. You still need to go to school cause I’m paying.”“You could’ve been a little more glad you know…” he says while opening the door.“
