Anime Crossover: My Part-Time Job as a Giant of Light While Studying Abroad in Chiba

power cut.

The once quiet room was instantly plunged into an even deeper darkness.

Yukino frowned and instinctively hugged her arms tighter.

That feeling of being isolated from the world surged up along with the darkness.

"Meow--!!!"

Just then, the kitten in the corner suddenly let out an extremely shrill scream.

She suddenly turned around under the snow.

The carrier was shaking violently, and the kitten inside was frantically banging on the cage door, as if it had seen something extremely terrifying.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

Yukinoshita quickly ran over, trying to comfort it.

But the instant her hand touched the cage, a strong static electricity—snap!—severely stung her fingertips.

at the same time.

Suddenly, a blinding blue light shone from the center of the bluish-purple cloud outside the window.

Chapter 12 The Apocalypse Arrives!

Light pierced through the heavy curtains, illuminating the entire living room in a deep, dark blue hue, like the ocean.

—Hooray! Ho ...

An indescribable roar exploded from the sky, the sound penetrating the soundproof glass and directly into Yukino Yukinoshita's eardrums.

Yukinoshita covered her ears and crouched down in pain.

In that instant, she felt the entire apartment building tremble with that sound.

At the same time, a piercing screech, like a sonic bomb, slammed into Duan Zilian's French windows.

Crash—!!!

The double-layered tempered glass, which was said to be able to withstand a category 12 typhoon, shattered like paper in an instant.

Countless sharp shards of glass, accompanied by gale-force winds and torrential rain, blasted into the living room like shotgun pellets.

"careful!"

Hong Kai reacted extremely quickly; the instant the glass shattered, he had already overturned the heavy coffee table in front of him.

boom!

The heavy tabletop stood like a shield in front of the two of them.

The shards of glass clattered against the wooden board, making a crisp sound.

"Holy crap! What...what the hell is this?!"

Duan Zilian huddled behind the coffee table, her head in her hands. Her ears were ringing from the loud noise, and a bloody scratch had appeared on her face from the flying glass shards.

"coming."

Hong Kai's voice was terrifyingly deep.

His cowboy hat had been blown off, revealing a pair of sharp, hawk-like eyes.

He looked out the window at the broken sky.

The center of the originally bluish-purple clouds was now churning wildly.

Deep within that dark vortex, countless blue arcs of electricity were converging and compressing, as if an invisible giant eye was opening in the clouds, locking onto the building—or rather, locking onto someone in this room.

Hong Kai sensed the intense malice. He kicked the coffee table away, and a torrent of rain poured down from the shattered glass. He stood rooted to the spot, his clothes fluttering like a battle flag.

Sizzle—BOOM!!!

A thick bolt of blue lightning struck straight down from the clouds, heading directly towards the apartment where Duan Zilian was!

"As expected, they came for you!"

Hong Kai roared and grabbed Duan Zilian by the collar.

The force was astonishing; Duan Zilian felt as if she had been lifted up like a little chick.

"Wait! What are you doing—"

Before Duan Zilian could even utter the word "me," Hong Kai had already made a crazy move.

He grabbed Duan Zilian and rushed straight towards the broken French window!

"Jump!"

"This is the fifteenth floor!!!!"

Duan Zilian's screams were drowned out by the roar of thunder.

Boom!!!

Just as the two leaped out of the window frame, a bolt of blue lightning slammed into the living room.

The entire apartment was instantly engulfed in flames, and the shockwave from the explosion, like a giant hand, pushed the two people in mid-air even further away.

The icy rain hit my face like bullets.

The wind howled in my ears.

Duan Zilian opened her eyes and saw that she was suspended dozens of meters in the air, with streets below her as small as ants.

"I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to die..."

"Shut up! Hold on to me!"

Hong Kai forcibly adjusted his posture in mid-air.

He spotted an external air conditioner unit on the building across the street.

Bang!

Hong Kai grabbed the bracket of the air conditioner outdoor unit with one hand, and held Duan Zilian's waist tightly with the other.

The immense downward inertia caused the iron support to bend and twist, sending sparks flying.

"Cough cough..."

Duan Zilian felt like her internal organs were about to be thrown out.

Before they could even catch their breath.

zizi——

The dark clouds overhead rolled in again.

Another bolt of lightning was brewing, thicker and more violent than the last one.

It's like a Grim Reaper with a sniper rifle, reloading in the clouds.

"Is this still not over?! What kind of grudge is this?!"

Duan Zilian looked at the sky that had lit up again and shouted in despair.

"Because you have a smell that it hates!"

Hong Kai roared, veins bulging on his arm, and swung violently, "Hold on tight! We're going to the rooftop over there!"

Like a parkour master, he used the protrusions on the building's exterior wall to carry a man weighing over 100 pounds through a deadly dance in the raging wind and rain.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Thunderbolts struck one after another.

The air conditioner unit where they had just been standing was instantly blown to pieces; the billboard they had stepped on was burned to charcoal; and even a corner of the building's exterior wall was sheared off.

The oppressive feeling was suffocating.

It was as if the whole world was hunting them down.

The sky was stained a hopeless black, with only the deadly blue lightning illuminating their disheveled figures time and again.

"Huh...huh..."

"Run! Don't stop!"

Hong Kai roared and shoved Duan Zilian, who was almost exhausted.

The two had just made an emergency landing on the ground from the exterior wall of the crumbling building.

Duan Zilian felt like her lungs were about to explode.

Rainwater mixed with cold sweat streamed into my eyes, stinging painfully. The wound on my back had long since gone numb, leaving only intermittent throbbing pain.

The once bustling streets of Chiba were now deserted, all the streetlights were off, and the traffic lights swayed in the wind like hanged ghosts.

The water on the ground was already above ankle level, and every time I ran, it splashed up large sprays of dirty water.

Sizzle—Boom!

Another bolt of blue lightning struck ten meters behind them.

A convenience store sign was instantly shattered, sparks flew everywhere, and the blast wave knocked Duan Zilian off balance, almost causing her to fall into the water.

"What on earth is this thing?!"

Duan Zilian scrambled to her feet, wiping the mud off her face. "Why is it chasing me?! Did I kill its whole family?!"

"It's even more serious than that!"

As Hong Kai pulled him up, he kept a wary eye on the sky. "That's Magbasa! The Wind Demon Beast! It sensed the aura of light on you, and it wants to strangle you before you awaken!"

"Demon King Beast? Light?"

Duan Zilian's mind was in complete chaos. "Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about? This isn't a movie set!"

"This is reality!"

Hong Kai abruptly stopped, grabbed Duan Zilian by the collar, his deep eyes flashing eerily in the lightning, "Listen! This isn't a natural disaster! It's a living monster that wants to destroy everything! If you don't want to die, find a way to make that bracelet light up!"

Duan Zilian was stunned.

He subconsciously looked at his left wrist.

The old, dusty bracelet was now slightly warm.

Deep within that dim crystal, a faint white light flickered.

—Hooray! Ho ...

Just then, that metallic scraping sound rang out again.

This time, it was clearer and closer than ever before.

It was as if the owner of that voice had descended upon them.

"...As you can see! This is the center of Chiba City!"

In the pouring rain, a female reporter in a yellow raincoat clung tightly to a microphone, struggling to shout through the howling wind. The cameraman behind her had to crouch on the ground just to keep the camera steady.

"The wind speed is now over 50 meters per second! Surrounding buildings are severely damaged! Please, all citizens, absolutely do not go outside! Repeat! Absolutely do not..."

—Buzz! !!

A very low, rumbling vibration interrupted her report.

The reporter felt as if his eardrum had been pressed hard, and he instantly lost his hearing.

"What is that...?"

The cameraman's terrified voice came from behind.

The reporter looked up.

The camera then tilted up.

The once pitch-black clouds suddenly looked like a torn rag, with a huge gash split in the middle.

In that crack.

A pair of azure wings, obscuring the sky, slowly unfolded.
