Quick Analysis: Two bodyguards, both with rumored A-Ranked abilities and metallic armor. One of which has the Rad-A Geyser, which lets him shoot high pressured air from his hands. Judging from the weight of the air when it struck Yato's lightning and disrupted it, it's enough to break bone. The other bodyguard's Rad-A remains anonymous.

"Lukas, Edgar!" announced Mikael, holding up a monocle from his vest pocket to his eye, "Have fun fact from my Rad-A: Assessor. His name is Jukkonarius Yato, ranked S. His Rad-A is known as Trigger, but he can manipulate electricity to most flexible potential. Take care, my comrades."

"Figures," thought Yato, on guard, "Mikael Orlov has an identification type of Rad-A to help expose his enemies'— wait... huh?"

Did Mikael get his Rad-A wrong? Yato most assuredly heard him say "Trigger." Except... his Rad-A was known as "Instant Kill!"

However, there really was no time for Yato to reflect, for Geysers were already being shot at him. Yato transmuted into lightning, dodging the high-speed attacks that were near invisible. He figured that he needed to take out the offensive, teleporting right to Edgar's side for a flank, charging up a kick.

Bawham!

Crash! Thud!

"Edgar, don't kill him now," ordered Mikael, "We must be orderly and cause no such trouble in marketplace."

"Yes, sir," responded Edgar, feeling his earlobes.

Yato slowly got up from the crates he had landed in. The air pressure was so great that it knocked him back even when putting up his electrical barrier. However, Yato noticed it: Edgar's air pressure did not just come from his hands, but any hole from his body as well.

"Hey," said Near, eating some popcorn as he watched the television screen, "Do you think if this guy shoots air from any hole of his body, he can also shoot air from his asshole?"

"What kind of question is that?" responded Fairy, reading a magazine, not paying attention, "Wouldn't that hurt?"

"I'm sure it'd rupture something, but I doubt people would actually use it in a fight."

Yato needed to take another jab at attacking. If his usual flanks didn't work, he may need to just attack with brute force, using his electrical barrier to break through the air pressure. He just needed some time to amplify the strength of his lightning. As soon as Yato began charging up, the green electricity flowing around him, he was blinded in less than a second!

Wham!

Yato felt his electrical barrier's power disappear before getting hit by a barrage of attacks. They attacked at certain weak points of the body, with coordinated precision! Finally, he was kicked away, opening his eyes to find Lukas's leg in the air. This was a blinding ability, Lukas Carass' Rad-A: The Pure Sun. Coupled with Edgar's air pressure to blow away the electrical barrier, Lukas' martial arts skills let him dash forth and trade blows.

As Yato stood on one knee, he smiled as blood dripped from his lip, "It's about time you joined in."

The metal from Lukas' armor began to shake, and soon he and Edgar were pulled together by extreme force. Yato's electricity managed to touch Edgar's armor from his flank, and with Lukas initiating contact with Yato, electricity traveled towards his body. This in turn created a magnetic reaction, allowing Yato to pull them together!

"That was cheap," mumbled Lukas, fidgeting with his armor and taking it off, "My Pure Sun.. I can't feel it working right now. Buy me some time so I can recharge it. Make a grand entrance or something."

"You got it," replied Edgar, looking over at Mikael and Yato, who seemed to be chatting.

"Very nice trick," applauded Mikael towards Yato, "It seems you can fend off for yourself!"

"Don't worry," smiled Yato, "There's more where that came from."

Edgar wasted no time relaxing, propelling to the skies with air pressure blowing from his nose. Upon reaching maximum altitude, he dropped down, swooping towards Yato's general direction. There, he began swinging his arms in a circular motion, creating a larger area of attack to hit Yato, air blasting through the hands to create more pressure as he dropped down full speed using his nose: a Geyser Missile.

Yato pointed his finger towards Edgar, electricity sparking around the tip. He began to charge it up as Edgar grew closer. This was still in Edgar's favor: the speed he was in could cause an impact into Yato before Yato could fully charge any offensive ranged attack, and even if Yato did shoot it off early, the air pressure from his Geyser would protect him.

Just as Edgar grew closer, a blinding light soon erupted.

"Yes!" thought Edgar, "Thank you Lukas! An additional layer of safety to blind Yato so he can't aim well! Our teamwork is unmatched, not even to an S-Rank!"

And yet, Edgar did not hear a single sound upon the moment that he had landed.
