Y/N: I'm making progress at least, I suppose I could rest for- No no no, don't get cocky, they're waiting for you to fall asleep and then take you out, stay strong Y/N!

Definitely starting to lose the few screws holding his mental health together, he forced himself to stay awake and even prepared the sword in case his brain tried to take the easy way out. After leaving the library for a whole day, he was still standing so it meant that he could still keep going.

...He'll stop when he drops down to the ground, no excuse otherwise.

Y/N: ...When did that get here?

He looked down and saw 2 books on the desk in front of him. He didn't remember seeing the both of them when he left so it must mean that the library wants him to see them. On top of one of them, a single order was given to him.


"A new group has decided to reach the library. Prepare as such, a total of 5 librarians, more and face the consequences."


Y/N: ...

He knew what it meant. 5 librarians was the synonym of an all-out war and a rare occasion, mostly staying solo and calling for his friends only when he knew that he couldn't take care of it himself, the emotional damage forcing his hand most of the time. If the library itself gave him the ability to have a group of 5, he couldn't take it on his own.

Y/N: *Whistle* What's next? I'm gonna get attacked by a goddamn train?

Nonetheless, he opened the book and took a deep breath, bracing for the impact that was coming his way. Just as he expected, a true maelstrom was coming their way and many fears emerged from the back of his mind.


[Reimu Hakurei]

-Hakurei Shrine Maiden: Gains 200% power against all that are not human.

-Laziness: All attacks lose 30% power. This ability becomes inactive after dropping below 50% HP.

-Time to be Serious: All attacks gain 30% power. This ability is inactive if the person's HP is over 50%.

-Going with the Flow: If this person doesn't receive any damage during a turn, becomes untargetable next turn and uses a special type of attack that can only be countered by the opponent targeted by it. Cannot be redirected by other opponents.

-Barrier Mastery: While defending against an opponent during a clash, Defense/Evasion increase by 200% and reflect damage directly to the opponent's HP instead of Stun Resist if the power of the person's defense is higher than the opponent's attack.

-Unstable Manipulation: At the beginning of a turn, has a chance to increase strength by 10% at a 50% chance, lose 10% strength for the turn if it fails.

-Magic: This person is able to use magic.

-Danmaku Fighter: Increase Evasion/Stun Resist by 20% during battle.

-Flight: This person is capable of flying.


At a first glance, he could tell that this person was going to be a pain in the ass to deal with. Sure, they were on the same level but she clearly would have the advantage in a 1v1. Koishi was right, everything and everyone can easily murder him in this world.


[Marisa Kirisame]

[Level 20]

[HP: 181]

[Stun Resist: 120]

[Passives]

-Speed III: Can perform 3 additional attacks per turn.

-Toughness: Reduce all ranged damages received by 30%.

-Ranged Only: Can only use ranged attacks.

-Love Sign: Master Spark: After 6 turns, becomes immobilized for 1 turn and uses a Mass Attack that targets all opponents next turn(A Mass Attack targets all enemies, cannot be redirected and will be used before anything else. To cancel the Mass Attack, all opponents' attacks must equal the power of the Mass Attack or surpass it).

-Magic: This person is able to use magic.

-Danmaku Fighter: Increase Evasion/Stun Resist by 20% during battle.


Y/N: ...A little disappointing honestly. It would be fine without her Mass Attack.

With a simple glance, he knew who to prioritize and who to keep for last. Stalling for time wasn't the idea and the plan would be to quickly take out one of them. However, things are always easier said than done.


*Dong* *Dong* *Dong*


???: Intruders detected inside the facility. Presence unknown, proceed with caution.

Y/N: ...Crap.

He stood up and hurriedly called for the book of his former friends, ready to summon them once he arrives on the scene. Carrying his sword, he ran past the many bookshelves and entered the entrance area.
