Hajime waited for Rica and Reiko to leave so that he could come out of the bedsheet. His eye that changed its color before in the woods from red to yellow, did not go back to its normal color but Hajime and the others did not notice it.
He sat down on the bed properly and looked at the daggers Reiko had left behind for him. He just stared at them for a few moments and did not lay even a finger on them. He stood up from the bed and moved out of the room.
In the corridor he saw a somewhat strange crystal which was growing different colors at the same time, but little did he know that the crystal placed in the corridor was there for security and should be active when it detects suspicious activity in the house.
He moved towards it and the moment he was at its range of severance it set off a bright that would have blinded dangerous people or creatures who would attempt to come into the house. But lucky for him he got blinded by the blinding light only in one eye. and that eye was of Couse his normal colored eye and not the one that tuned yellow.
He fell down caught by surprise, his heart started racing as if he was about to die. He moved backwards while still on the floor and unable to stand up.
He opened his eyes slowly, but it was like both of his eyes had been completely sealed off by the light, then he started seeing something blurry Infront off him, it looked like a door because a little amount of light was coming through it.
He approached it to maybe get out of the corridor and go back to the room he was staying, but once he reached it, he realized that door was not a door but a window. even so he climbed it to get to the other side of the house. The house had eight windows and of the eight windows two of them are of areas whereby a person no matter the age can reach from both sides.
"I need to get out of here."
He said while climbing the window he did not know that the window he was climbing was one of the tallest windows on his house, and the moment he climbed it he fell down to the other side.
A man who was passing by heard the noise that was made by Hajime the time he was falling down from the window, he went to check what was going on, but he found that there was no one there. He looked left and right to maybe see if someone needed help but still there was no person to be seen.
"Strange." Confused the man said while still looking around.
The time Hajime was falling he saw the man and by the time he fell down he run as fast as he could to prevent being asked a lot of questions the man. He hid behind the tree that behind the house and he hurt his whole arm due to the impact of falling.
His eyes were full of tears, and he was holding his injured arm with the other arm that wasn't injured. or though he could cry but one of his eyes was still out of vision completely while the other gained a little bit of vision that allowed him to move from the stop he was to the front of the house.
He grabbed the door and tried to open it, but the door could not open since it was closed and Reiko had carried her keys, and the spare set were inside the house.
He tried forcing it to open by pushing it, but the door could not badge. He looked up at the sky and had an idea to go back at the window and try to enter the house using but so he dragged himself to the closest window.
After he reached it, he looked at it and realized that there was no way he was getting back inside the house with a broken, the reason being he couldn't climb the window even if he wanted to because of his injured arm.
"I need to find something to climb with if need to get inside." He said nervously.
He looked left but he was unable to see anything since his eye was still blinded, so he tried to maybe turn completely to see if there was something useful there, but the moment he was about to turn a baby dragon started chasing him after it saw him standing there for a while.
He ran towards the village's town to maybe hide among the people who were there that he didn't realize that the baby dragon had stop chasing him for a while now.
"Fe, I thought I was going to die." He thought as he stops running near a weapons shop where the owner of the shop was throwing out some useless weapons and potions which had expired or broken.
Hajime filled with curiosity went to see what the shop owner was throwing away when he saw that the owner of the shop was throwing out a sword which looked pretty good and had no edges, and it wasn't broken even a bit.
"Mister!" Hajime called out.
The man turned to see who was calling him and why.
"Why are you throwing out that sword?" Hajime asked.
"Why am I throwing it out?" The man said as he looked at the sword.
"Simple. Because it's broken." The man added as he turned to face Hajime.
"Broken?" Confused Hajime asked.
In his eye, the sword was not broken even a little bit, but in the owner's eyes the sword was damaged and broken beyond repair.
The man looked at Hajime closer and noticed that Hajime was injured and needed some kind of help.
"Hey kid! are you okay?!" The man asked.
Hajime looked behind him if there was another kid, but he saw no one and he replied to the man.
"I'm doing fine. But thanks for asking." As he started to move away from the man.
The man confused asked himself, "Just how strong was that kid?" He did not know that Hajime was not feeling anything at the moment because the pain was being covered by the adrenaline rush that came from running away from the baby dragon.
Hajime continued to move forward since he was already in town and his original home where he stays with his mother was there.
He walked for minutes but as he got closer to his house his arm started hurting again, but he forced himself to continue moving since he was already there.
After he reached his house, he went straight to the bathroom to clean himself up so that maybe his arm could feel better and maybe he could regain the vision in his left eye, but the moment he entered the bathroom his vision came back and his arm and completely healed like nothing had happened to it.
"Wow. What just happened to me?" Amazed Hajime asked himself as he walked towards a mirror that was in the hallway.
Suddenly he started hearing noises from outside his house and the smell of burning materials.
"What's going on?" He asked himself as he went close to the house's main door. the moment he opened it he found that people were being slaughtered like pigs and almost every house was on fire.
"What the?"
