Chapter 427 A Mysterious Secret Agency

"Elayne! Are you alright?" Mark ran to my side.
"I-I am alright! But what about you?!" I asked, checking his entire body with my hands.
I lifted his shirt and saw a the left side of his stomach all swelled up. It was even purple, but it didn't seem to have pierced anything, and internal organs were alright as well.
"This is nothing, please don't worry…" Mark said. "Blackie, is he okay?!"
We quickly ran towards Blackie, but found him snacking on the hollows black mud. This time it hadn't disappeared completely.
"Nom, nom, nom… Meow?" He was completely fine as well, and he just glanced back at us with indifference before going back to his bizarre meal.
Cats, I guess.
"Phew… I am glad everything ended fine." I sighed, quickly grabbing the mud and the Hollow's crystal and storing it inside my Inventory for later. "We could probably have some use for these materials. Also it seems that items that originate from this world don't cost any MP to retrieve later."
"That's good… Ugh…!" Mark suddenly fell to his knees and began puking over the grass. "Aaghh, my stomach really hurts…"
"A-Ah right! Your stomach must have been twisted from that attack… Here, let me relieve your pain." I sighed, my MP had recovered a little, but not completely enough, so I cut the tip of my finger and poured my sap-blood over his mouth. "D-Drink this… It's my blood, but its like sap now, it heals whoever drinks it."
Mark blushed a bit, as he slowly began licking my finger.
This is super lewd for some reason!
FLASH!
His wound was already recovering fast, and the swelling disappeared after a little while. It seems my family didn't heard us fighting at all, I glanced in the distance, at the other side of the farm my brother was with Rita and everyone else showing them the chickens.
Well, that's for the better. It is a relief they didn't get in the way.
"I think I am fine now, Elayne…" Mark said, his face as red as a tomato.
"Oh? That's nice…!" I said with a smile.
"S-So, can you… erm, get off me?" He wondered.
"Huh?" I wondered.
And then I suddenly realized I was sitting over his legs while I was feeding him from my finger.
When did I get into this position?!
I quickly jumped off before things were to get even more embarrassing.
"S-Sorry!" I said.
"It's fine. Thanks for healing me, I feel way better now. Your sap is amazing… Though, don't you feel weaker by using it?" He wondered.
"Oh, maybe? But by eating I refill my blood easily." I said while puffing my chest.
"…That sounds like a Shonen Manga character." Mark laughed.
"Eh? Like Luffy or something?" I giggled.
"You know Luffy?" He was surprised.
"Of course I know! I love One Piece! Though I haven't read it in a while… Did it end?" I wondered.
"…No. Even though the author said he was ending it soon some years ago, it still on going." Mark said. "Sometimes I think he'll die before finishing it."
"Ahahah…" I laughed a bit.
"Well, that sure lifted the mood, huh?" The Great Spirit spoke, emerging in front of us in her carrot form.
"EH?! A-A floating carrot?!" Mark reacted as expected.

A phantasmal presence wandered the lands of Canada in the sky, unseen by anybody incapable of seeing magical beings. His red eyes scanning the area, as he suddenly sensed something. One of the many Hollows "marked" with his phantasmal powers which had evolved into a greater form ended finding something truly peculiar.
"Oh? Seems like I found her faster than I imagined…" The phantasmal entity started to laugh. "Then shall we pay her a visit, friends?"
Countless of Hollows started crawling all around the city and moving to the countryside, no people capable of detecting them yet, as they continued moving, devouring one another, and growing bigger, and bigger… It might take some days, but surely enough, they might reach their objective.
However, it wasn't as if all humans were defenseless and incapable of detecting magical creatures either. Some did see that, and various of these people gathered together, somewhere.
"Has anyone been noticing the Hollows moving towards the outside of the city?"
"What's going on, honestly?"
"Stop asking questions I can't answer you two, isn't it obvious I have no freaking idea? Seriously Canadians are so stupid…"
"What did you said?!"
"You damn American pig, go back to your stupid country if you don't like it here already!"
"Huh? Wanna fight? The world's has gone to shit, so I don't mind going a bit wild…"
As these three idiots were about to fight for no reason, someone else in the room stopped them.
"Stop it, you three. We came here to investigate the Mana Pollution, not to fight between one another. With the shit that happened some days ago the world's going to get worse from now on. Already a lot of other teams were sent all around the world." He sighed. "But this, this is bizarre… We might end up expecting a High Rank Danger Zone soon, the countryside of this little city might become a breeding nest for Hollows, and god forbid there's anything else than that."
"Boss, should we get moving then?"
"We need to quickly get there and stop them!"
"Also there's tons of Hollows, we could make a lot of cash…"
"You three will go, if we leave the city completely unprotected my own boss's going to fucking kill me." Sighed the man. "Now go, don't waste any more time. I feel like the week after The First Contact might become the one where a lot of shit happens, keep your eyes open."
"Yes sir!"
The three mysterious figures quickly jumped off the window, moving at superhuman speeds with abilities no normal person could possess, and slowly tracking down the armies of Hollows moving to the countryside.
The man that stayed in the city began smoking a cigar, while checking on his computer, countless registered cases of Hollows and even monsters began appearing one after the other within the hidden archives of the organization he worked for.
"Monsters, Dungeons, Awakened people that has no relations with Ancient Superhuman Bloodlines… How wild is this world going to become?" He sighed. "And it has only been like three days… Sooner or later, the Governments won't be able to hide this from the people anymore, and the event that might happen in this city's countryside might become the catalyst."
