I'm doing abstract animation

After working for more than ten minutes, the blue-haired boy had now successfully moved all the survivors to that location.

He was now panting heavily, facing alone the monster that reeked of blood...

P.S.: Thank you everyone for your support!

A bizarre and fantastical city: Chapter Seventeen - Battle and Survivors (Large Chapter)

boom!

In the dimly lit open-air parking lot, a small blue figure, like a shooting star, kept crashing into a huge monster.

"This can't go on..."

Eriri, who was watching from the sidelines, muttered to herself. Although she had some recollection of what happened afterward, it was still very vague. In her memory, the blue-haired child had always been unharmed and indifferent.

But the child before her, covered in blood and with a ferocious expression, was someone she had never seen before...

Bang!

Another loud crash was heard, but perhaps due to exhaustion or a miscalculation of the landing point, the blue-haired boy landed directly next to Eriri.

Only then did she realize how miserable the boy looked.

His body was tattered and covered in wounds. Some were shallow cuts, like knife cuts, while others revealed the pulsating bright red muscles inside, and even the faint pink bone showing through the skin...

She couldn't help but cover her mouth. Usually, she would cry loudly if she accidentally cut her hand while sharpening a pencil. Just looking at these scars made her feel a pang of pain. She simply couldn't believe that such a thing could actually happen to her...

"Damn, this thing is really hard!"

The blue-haired boy gritted his teeth and clenched his fist.

It was only then that Eriri noticed that his palms were completely deformed and twisted, and several of his fingers were in a strange posture.

and many more……

He wouldn't be thinking of...

Click click click...

A sound that sent chills down Eriri's spine rang out, and the blue-haired boy slowly and carefully straightened her dislocated hand.

This is simply superhuman!

She began to admire the young man in front of her from the bottom of her heart. Putting everything else aside, his patience alone was enough to make countless people envious.

Boom boom boom!

Eriri's expression changed as the giant centipede monster once again swung its legs and charged in this direction. Its enormous size was like a small train!

"Wait, why is this huge thing moving so fast? Monsters in tokusatsu shows are always super slow!"

She couldn't help but start complaining, and her body instinctively moved to the side. Although she knew it was just an illusion and the monster couldn't possibly hurt her, she still didn't want to have any close contact with it, even if it was just an illusion!

After all, centipedes are the natural enemy of beautiful girls!

'Although this guy is fast, that little guy is even faster. He should be able to dodge at this distance, right?'

Thinking this, Eriri couldn't help but turn around to look, only to find the blue-haired boy standing still.

'What happened? Is it because of the injury?!'

She began to get anxious. The boy's injuries were not caused by a head-on collision with the monster, but rather by the monster's passive counterattack when the boy attacked it. Moreover, he had avoided a lot of damage.

About two hours had passed since the boy started fighting, but he had never directly confronted the monster, a fact that even Eriri could see clearly.

A young boy might not be a match for this monster in a direct confrontation...

But why is it like this now...?

The boy's gloomy and complicated expression immediately reminded Eriri of something.

She quickly turned her head.

'Sure enough... behind this little guy is where Mom and the others are hiding...'

She felt a chill run down her spine, and her face immediately became filled with complex emotions.

"Damn it, if it weren't for those human cubs, who the hell would care about the lives of the people in this world!"

The blue-haired boy roared, and a flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing a strange device in front of him.

This is a strange device that is solid at the bottom and has a triangular cone shape facing outwards.

Although the device was strange, Eriri's eyes lit up.

'This device might actually work wonders!'

Just as she expected, the blue-haired boy placed the device in front of him, its pointed end facing the menacing monster, and braced himself firmly against the back of the device.

"Die from your own impact, you idiot!"

With a roar, the boy braced himself against the monstrous force that was hurtling towards him.

however……

"really!"

"Fuck!"

Eriri and the boy exclaimed almost simultaneously as the monster abruptly veered off course while traveling at high speed!

By the time the blue-haired boy realized what was happening, the monster's hideous mandibles were almost touching his face!

Click!

The loud sound of the serrated teeth snapping together made Eriri involuntarily close her eyes.

'No, no way...'

'That's impossible, I remember he clearly appeared again later...'

After silently comforting herself, Eriri finally dared to open her eyes.

The horrific scene before her eyes brought her a sense of relief, but also a deep pang of heartache.

The boy must have narrowly escaped the monster's attack, but the price was that his left hand was completely bitten off at the wrist!

"how so……"

She looked at the panting boy, whose face was full of exhaustion, with some disbelief.

"You're a beast! You almost ate me just now, you know that?"

Despite looking like he was about to ascend to heaven, the boy arrogantly patted his left shoulder with the knife in his right hand, his words full of sarcasm.

Chirp, chirp, chirp!

The monster seemed to understand him, and immediately roared to the sky, and then... disappeared.

Like a bubble, it vanished in a flash right before their eyes.

"Eh?"

Eriri was taken aback: "What's going on? It's not nice to say it like this, but that was clearly a great opportunity just now..."

The boy was also taken aback, but he seemed to realize something immediately, and his face turned ugly.

"Damn it, no way, it's a summoned creature..."

"She looks way too much like a supermodel!"

As the boy cursed, he conjured a card out of thin air, which then transformed into a bottle of steaming blue potion, which he drank in one gulp.

Then, almost visibly, the boy's injuries began to heal, and even a new arm grew rapidly from the severed arm.

Eriri breathed a sigh of relief: "That's more like it. In my memory, this boy had both hands..."

Although the boy had recovered, his fatigue was still evident. He no longer walked with the same lightness as before, as if he were carrying a massive boulder, making his movements incredibly slow and heavy.

He thought for a moment, then walked toward where the survivors were hiding.

"It seems this battle will drag on for a long time. We must find the true form of this other-dimensional monster... We need to find a way to stop these hindrances from causing trouble..."

Eriri opened her mouth, looking somewhat ashamed, but still followed.

She had some vague memories of what happened afterward; the boy's actions weren't exactly smooth sailing, but rather, they made no progress at all...

Not only has there been no progress, but these survivors seem to have actually caused him a lot of trouble...

When the blue-haired boy dragged his heavy steps to the survivor settlement, a large group of children almost immediately surrounded him, while a large group of human cubs watched eagerly from the outside.

"Hey bro, did you defeat the monster?"

"Wow! You are amazing!"

"What's your name?"

…………

The blue-haired boy opened his mouth, his expression seemingly a bit complicated. It was an emotion that Eriri couldn't understand—a mixture of impatience, nostalgia, and above all, shame. He had lost, but faced with the expectant eyes of these human cubs, he really couldn't say anything.

"Alright, all of you stop crowding around him!" a little girl with long black hair said loudly from the perimeter of the human cub. "He looks exhausted, let him rest!"

Huh?

Why does this girl look so familiar?

Eriri stared at the little girl with long black hair, lost in thought.

Just then, she heard her younger self mutter something.

"Hmph, it's that arrogant Kasumigaoka again, how annoying~"

Yinglili: "..."

Kasumigaoka...

Could it be that famous senior from our school?

Wow, the more I look at it, the more it looks like it!

Was it really true that we went to the same school when we were kids?!

Eriri always felt there was a strange coincidence.

"Big brother, this is for you."

As the surrounding human cubs dispersed, a little girl with a bob haircut handed an apple to the blue-haired boy: "Thank you for saving us."

The blue-haired boy seemed a little embarrassed, but he still reached out and took the apple from the little girl, casually asking, "Thank you, what's your name?"

"My name is Kato Megumi, big brother."

The blue-haired boy nodded: "Kato Megumi, right? I'll remember that."

Little Eriri, standing nearby, cast an envious glance at him. Although there was a slight misunderstanding with this blue-haired young man at first, he had saved her and her mother, and she wanted to get to know him too…

Yinglili: "..."

She covered her burning face with a sense of helplessness, feeling as if she were looking at some embarrassing history.

"Alright, alright, kids, gather over here."

The adults exchanged glances, and one of the younger girls stepped forward and waved to the children. She was one of the three teachers for this summer camp.

Well, two of them were killed in the riot just now.

The children subconsciously obeyed the teacher's words, and one by one they went to gather on the other side.

"Ahem, little one..."

A middle-aged man with a thick beard coughed twice and stepped forward to talk to the blue-haired boy.

"Who are you calling a little kid?!" The blue-haired boy changed almost instantly the moment the human cub turned around. His initial awkwardness turned into a gloomy expression, and the moment the middle-aged man spoke, he interrupted him fiercely: "If you call me a little kid again, believe me, I'll scatter your ashes!"

He was indeed able to control his temper when facing human infants. Although some human infants at this age were indeed annoying, the elementary school students in this world did not have cell phones to play with, so they were not exposed to strange and unusual information. Overall, they were still relatively simple-minded, which is why he showed a little bit of kindness.

But when faced with this group of adults, he didn't give them a friendly look.

He has been taken advantage of by many adults before.

The blue-haired boy's fierce words made the middle-aged man shudder, then he scratched his head sheepishly and muttered, "He's just a kid..."

Blue-haired boy: "..."

His expression changed several times, but in the end, out of consideration for the human child, he chose to swallow his anger and said with a gloomy face, "Just call me Yuki."

"Um, Yuki-kun..."
