Lost Paradise | BOOK 1

Three arrows launched once. Kamo Noritoshi and Fushiguro Megumi where dueling in a secluded area; one of the buildings in the paremeter.

When Yukiko entrusted him to take on the third year, he expected it wouldn't be as easy.

But he has the advantage.

"You can summon more than one shikigami correct?" Said the older male "I don't really appreciate you holding back."

"You're down to your last arrow too right?" Megumi countered "I won't help you if you collapse from anemia."

Kamo's cursed technique allows him to control whatever touches his blood.

It was quite fitting for someone of the big three clans (Gojo, Zen'in and Kamo) that's values bloodline so much.

"Don't worry," the third year assured. "These arrows are prepared beforehand."

Noritoshi aims his last arrow upwards and shoots, making the younger momentarily drop down his guard and uses it as an advantage to get close to Megumi.

They now initiated in close combat.

The spiky ravenette being suddenly overwhelmed by the strength the blood manipulator had when he punched him.

"Nice reflexes." The Kyoto student complimented. As Megumi defended himself.

Noritoshi opened one eye and activated the true power of his technique.

(As you can see the author is practically winging it now lmao)

"Don't lose focus now!" Noritoshi scolded.

Kamo Noritoshi is a powerful male with a sad backstory. He's kind of like Dazai Yukiko in a way— that's why the female was sort of fond of him.

He has a powerful technique, which lets him manipulate blood beyond its form and motion.

Body temperature, pulse rate, the number of red blood cells, blood composition— all of it, is under his control.

He has a lot of expectations set out for him.

"Ehh~?" said starry eyed 13 year old Dazai Yukiko. "You're the next head of the Kamo clan, Kamo-san?"

The 1st year Kyoto student had no idea why they suddenly paired him up with thirteen year old Yukiko. They sent him on a mission to scout a curse in one of the temples around Kyoto, and for some reason they brought along a kid all the way from Tokyo. (Dumbass you're basically a kid too :P)

"Yes." He said simply. Walking the streets with the short brunette.

"So you're kind of like me huh Kamo-san?" Said Yukiko "Say, can I call you Toshi-toshi?" She asked.

"Do whatever you like." The male said nonchalantly. At least the kid wasn't as rowdy as the kids in his old home. "What for you mean we're kind of alike?" He questioned, sparing the girl a short glance.

"Well we both have expectations set out for us!" She smiled, though it seems a bit forced. Noritoshi simply brushed that off thinking she's just tired from all the walking.

"You are expected to be the next clan leader and me the next Gojo Satoru!" The female sighed.

"It's kinda tiresome right Toshi-toshi? Living up to others expectations."

The blue haired girl stood stiffly in the middle of the forest.

Her sword gone and taken by Mai's sister; Maki.
