[Kaitou]

I can't keep worrying about Innocents. It'll ruin my reputation and affect the Magic army's progress in this war, Koji thought.

He walked deeper into the forest and noticed a hound-like creature running throught the forest. He heard shuffling behind him and turned around. Another hound leapt through the bushes and at Koji. Koji drew his sword and thrust it down the hound's mouth. The hound wimpered and died as Koji withdrew his sword. He noticed a small barcode printed on the hound's hind leg. Koji knelt down and examined it closer.

"What the hell? Animals created with biomagic?"

The hound evaporated into streams of mana and disappeared. Koji stood up and sheathed his sword.

"Why would we need biomagic creatures?"
