As there was free range for the cut made by Mal, Fuyuto cut with all of his might to make as big of a wind blade as possible. But he did not have enough energy to cut the Flan it appeared. With the Flan body wobbling, and Fuyuto only capable of standing by leaning on his sword due to his exhaustion, he was disappointed in himself, not able to cut the Flan, and felt like there was nothing left to do. Then a calm, almost regal voice came telling them to get down, as Fuyuto crouched before suddenly, there seemed to be an explosion of sorts. Huh? he thought, as he looked up at the giant Flan. A man of around 35, dressed in military blues with the sheathe to a longsword strapped to his left side, and a shotgun to his right had stabbed the Flan and his sword had exploded. The Flan become a pile of ooze and vapor. It looked kind of like melting jelly. It was an odd sight to see.
The man that had appeared seemed to be an acquaintance of Mal. Fuyuto started to stand again, as the man picked up his sword. The man questioned Mal about Fuyuto and Rena, before turning to Fuyuto and sizing him up.
An odd comment came out of his mouth, "You play too many video games". Fuyuto looked in surprise. Fuyuto never even owned a game console, let alone a game. How can this man judge him that way, he thought. The man introduced himself as Leo Firelight, commander of the Magibreakers. Fuyuto felt somewhat irritated by Leo, who had ordered them to make their way into the city. But nonetheless, they were saved by him, and had introduced himself.
"The name's Fuyuto, I am not Mal's apprentice, we just happened to be in the forest together, and were making our way back to the city." Fuyuto spoke and started to point to Rena. "She's Rena, Mal's apprentice."
"So ... what are the Magibreakers?" Fuyuto decided to ask.
He could hear approaching them from the city direction was someone on a chocobo. Fuyuto did not turn around yet, waiting to hear Leo's reply.
