the legendary warrior with a system

mission and saving a purple-haired girl…



[Takuya's POV]

[2 hours later]

I was walking through the dark streets with my sword in hand and looking around for anything suspicious.

You may wonder why?... well it all started with this system message.

[System: A quest has been generated]

[Mission: kill the parasite(Parasyte).

Reward: 1 lottery ticket]

Yes, I have to kill a being whose head can make whips with very sharp metal blades.

And now I'm just talking to try to calm down, seriously I would have preferred a thousand times to fight a zombie to fight a parasite.

In addition, parasites are one of the anime beings that scared me the most. seriously beings that can turn their heads into one or more weapons, that eat human flesh and the only way to recognize one is to remove a lock of their hair... not to mention those that are united into a single body.

'Why... just, why?' - I thought as i sighed at my luck.

Now I am walking looking for the parasite, it is assumed that if the system gave me the mission the parasite must be nearby.

"MMM?" - As I walk I see a girl in a school uniform walking towards me... she's not the parasite, right?

"Miss, I don't think it's a good idea to walk alone in the streets at this time of night..." - I said, but when I finished speaking and I understood what I said. He can't help but want to punch me for the stupid thing I said. (nothing to do with it, but hey he's not in his best mental state to know what he says or doesn't say)

The girl stopped when she heard me speak to her.

I look like a gangster or an old pervert who just saw a pretty girl and is trying to freak out or something... seriously I'm too nervous to think about what I'm saying.

"Thank you very much for warning me, if you'll excuse me I have to go" - said the girl and then she kept walking while she kept her eyes on the ground... I scared her.

"You're welcome... CAREFUL!" - I answered a little uncomfortable, but when the girl was closer to me I managed to see something that almost made me have a micro heart attack.

"Hey..." - said the girl after I pulled her roughly towards me, managing to avoid being cut in two by the knife that came down from her.

The two of us were momentarily surprised to see the attacker, he seemed like a normal man but what surprised us was that from his neck, his head is a whip that has a metal-like blade and looks very sharp.

"We have to run..." - I said with fear as i pulled her and we both started running.

We both ran until we reached a place away from the parasite.

"Huff huff... I think, I think we lost it" - I said while trying to catch my breath, I really got scared when I saw the parasite... and I'm supposed to kill it.

"Huff what, what was that thing?" - the girl asked as she too tried to catch her breath.

"...in short, that was a parasite, a being that took control of a human body and now eats other humans." - After thinking about it a bit, I decided to say it, anyway I don't think the news of the existence of the parasites will keep a secret for a long time.

"A parasite?" - The girl said while I was looking around to see where we were.

'A building under construction?' - I thought as I saw that we were in a building under construction.

"Well, I think it's better if you leave, I'll take care of him" - I said while stretching a little, this will be my first real fight to the death.

"Wait, won't you run too?" - asked the girl.

"(Sigh) No, I can't" - I said as I shook my head and sighed... why wasn't it a zombie?.

"Then I'll stay too, I can't leave the one who saved me to stay alone and fight against it" - said the girl as she stood up and grabbed the boken she had on her shoulder.

"Listen girl, although your attempt to help is much appreciated, but you'll get in the way, what will you do with a wooden boken?" - I said as I shook my head, I appreciated her attempt to help, but it would get in the way.

"To help, you would first need one of these and even having it I don't think you could help as parasite attacks are not something a normal person would see." - I said as I took the edge of the sword out of his sheath and showed it to him, even having this for a normal person I don't think he would react and be able to stop a parasite attack.

"But..." - the Girl tried to speak, but we heard a sound of something falling to the ground and we saw the parasite standing there.

"I found them…" - he said now he had a mouth and one eye while she had two whips with blades.

"Damn... stay back" - I said as I stood in front while I tried to protect her... I don't know where this heroic side of mine came from, but ok.

The parasite didn't say anything else and started attacking using her whips while I was blocking them as best I could. training with san and masa-san is very helpful, especially when masa-san makes maki shoot me with her pressurized water bullets to improve my reflexes.

"How fast" - I heard the girl speak, but this time not to make the same mistake when I was training with san and I got distracted by maki's voice... this time I can die.

"Stay back... I'll get closer to him." - I told the girl as he made me more serious and started to move while he blocked the attacks, I have to be careful because he takes advantage of the flexibility of his whips to make unexpected attacks in places that are difficult to block.

"Stay...still" - said the parasite as he increased the movement speed of his attacks.

"Tsk" - I clicked my tongue as I started to run and used the metal beams of the building as protection.

"Ahhhhh bastard human, don't move" - said the parasite as he saw that he wasn't as intelligent as they normally are, possibly it's a new one and that they are just beginning to appear.

"ARGH!!" - The parasite screamed in pain after the girl threw a stone at him while he was unaware.

"Your human woman" - said the parasite as he used his one eye to look at the girl.

"Opportunity" - I said quietly as I took the opportunity to run towards him with all my speed.

"NO, I WILL NOT LEAVE YOU!!" - the scared parasite shouted after seeing me take advantage of the opportunity he gave me by being distracted by the girl.

"AAAHHHHHH!!" - Ignoring the attacks I kept running towards him, but in that the parasite attracted the two whips and merged them while creating a kind of scythe that took advantage of the fact that I was close to him and tried to cut me.

While I was trying to stop myself and block the attack, the floor didn't help me and I ended up kneeling while blocking the parasite's attack.

"..." - I'm not going to lie this parasite has a lot of pushing force, but no one said that this would only be a sword battle.

*BANG**BANG*

Taking the gun out of my inventory, I shot the parasite twice, the first hit him in the left lung and the second hit his heart. I had to make the gesture that I was pulling it out from behind my shirt to hide the fact that I pulled it out of nowhere.

"ARGH..." - the parasite began to decrease the force of the push and then began to take a few steps backwards as his strange scythe began to shrink.

"Huff that was hard" - I said as I wiped the sweat from my forehead and breathed a sigh of relief seeing the parasite die.

I know he died because I heard the "DING" from the system notifying me to finish the mission.

'But now comes the other problem...' - I thought as I felt my stomach turn.

'Don't vomit, don't vomit' - I thought while trying not to vomit.

"Hey are you okay?" - the girl asked as she walked towards me and I imagine she was looking at my pale face.

"Yes... alone, it's the first time I've killed, I'll be fine" - I said as I sat down, I needed to say it.

"What, is going to happen with that?" - the girl asked as she pointed to the parasite.

"Well, leave it there, I don't think it will take long for the news of a being that eats humans to come to light, but for now we should get out of here to avoid problems." - I said as i picked me up and started walking towards the house…I need my bed.

Without looking back I started to walk leaving the girl alone. the danger is gone and I played the hero. I'm not in the mood to play the gentleman and worry about her.

As I walked I was listening to the footsteps of the girl who was walking behind me.

I stop and see that she is walking a few steps behind me, I look at her while I give her a look that says "What are you doing?".

"I live down this road..." - said the girl as she kept walking and now that I realize, what the hell is wrong with her, she doesn't seem affected by what happened?.

"(Sigh) well..." - I sighed and kept walking without paying attention to the girl.

After a while I almost managed to get to my house, but all this time until now the girl has been walking behind me, I won't lie it was awkward having her a few steps behind me.

"...So you're my neighbor?" - I said quietly, but apparently not so quietly since the girl seems to have heard me.

"...are you the guy who moved in a week ago?" - the girl asked as she stopped near me.

"Well, yes... my name is kanbara takuya, nice to meet you..." - I said as i introduced me. Who cares, I'm not going to be playing the mysterious boy after he saw my face and aside from the fact that he lives next door.

"My name is busujima saeko, a pleasure kanbara-san" - said the girl now saeko while she also introduced herself.

'Wait... did I say saeko busujima?' - I thought as i detailed her better and i realized that she had all the resemblance to the saeko from the anime.

'What the hell, now I'm the neighbor of one of the anime's female leads?' - I thought while now I understood why she wasn't so scared... even though I'm still surprised that she isn't scared.

=======

Just so you know, takuya doesn't mind saying something she wouldn't normally say because even if they try to put him in jail or something. he can return to his original world, so if he talks too much it's because of that.

About why saeko acts so calm, well I saw saeko as a girl who acts in front of strangers as a calm person without insecurities and all that, so that's how I'm doing it more or less.

There is a reason why the streets were alone, for people who are wondering about that detail, there are two more or less, but I will only say one. there was a small festival in that area so no one was around.

I hope you liked the chapter, I'm not used to writing fights of this type, that's why I prefer magical fights, I think I'm better at them. Or maybe I'm bad at both. :v
