Semiu doesn't get paid enough for this. First, it is Rudo, a sphereite, and a strong giver, the fact that he somehow fell down from the top and is still alive is a miracle in itself. Then there is you, a person who can manipulate anima at will, not to mention you can also consume other energy as well. Semiu massages her temple, tiredly looking at the small list of what you can do.
“So… aside from being able to control your own anima, you can also transfer it to other people, which enhances their strength and endurance…”
“Yes, I can also increase other’s anima as well” - You said enthusiastically, a smile is plastered on your face
“...you can also consume other anima”
“Only from the beasts I beat up.”
“ Any human?”
“Nope, zero, nada.”
“Alright…wait here. I need to talk to the boss.”
You simply give Semiu a nod, as she starts walking away. Obviously, you told them enough about your abilities, not too little to restrict your action, not too much to expose all the cards you have. You silently touch the handle of the dagger on your lower back. You are glad that you still have your dagger with you. Sure, your punches and kicks are powerful, but it is nice to have something a little more… stabby.
As you are waiting for Semiu at the reception desk, the group of cleaners suddenly approaches you.
“Oi, what are you doing here? Waiting to meet the boss?” - Enjin throws his arm over your shoulder.
“Yeah, Semius told me to wait for her here.” - You awkwardly wave at other cleaners.
“Ah… so you are the new recruit, the one Enjin said that can control anima. I am Zanka Nijiku. It is a pleasure to meet you.” - The teen cleaner gave you his greeting, shaking his hand with you.
“Say… you still don’t know our names, right ?” - At Enjin’s question, you give him a look of ‘You think?’, which gives him a chuckle - “Sorry, my bad~ I am Enjin, but you can call me darling “
“No thanks, I will stick with Enjin”
Upon hearing your response, the room erupts with laughter and Enjin feigns to be hurt at your answer. After that, each member of team Akuta introduce themself to you.
“Urm… Rudo” - The white hair teen nervously said, his hands are shaking, as he is afraid you would scream and cuss at him, like those people when he was up there.
Seeing how shaking Rudo’s hands are, you sneak a peek at his soul, checking his current emotion.
‘Nervousness… Hatred… Frustration… Just what are you thinking, Rudo?’
Without hesitation, you pat his head, transferring ripples of calm soul wavelengths to him, in order to sooth his anxious soul, and it works like a charm. Within seconds, Rudo can feel his fists are unclenched, shoulders relaxed, all negative thoughts suddenly vanished from his mind
“Nice to meet you, Rudo” - Rudo swore when you said that, he could see the image of his father… Regto overlapping with yours.
“Ni-Nice to meet you too”
“And I am Riyo~✩” - The red hair girl said, hugging your shoulder on the opposite side to Enjin
“Pleasure to meet you all and thank you for helping me back then.”
“Well, well, look at that! I am gone for a few minutes and you already made friends. Didn’t take you for a social butterfly” - Semiu ruffles your hair with a teasing grin on her face, before giving the cleaner team her attention.
“Ah Semiu! Guess what! Rudo is officially a cleaner now!”- Enjin announced the news with a chirper tone, while ruffling the white hair teen's head.
“Oh, congratulations, Rudo! Perhaps your new friend here will be the next new cleaner.” - Semiu said, lightly pinching your cheek - “By the way, the boss want to speak with you”
After Enjin and other members of his team wish you luck on your interview and bid you goodbye, you are escorted to the boss’s office by Semiu.
“Greetings Joker, my name is Corvus. Arkha Crovus. I have heard a lot about you.”
“All good things, I hope.”
“Oh, the best.” - Corvus said with a grin on his face, his eyes bore into yours.
To be honest, you don’t know which one is worse, to meet face to face with the big boss himself, or to do that with the addition of his receptionist intensely glaring at the back of your head. One minute, she is teasing you and the next, she is ready to kill you, if you even so much as lay your hand on her boss’s eyelashes. Humans sure are scary.
“...Why do you want to join the cleaner? You are a sphereite, you know nothing on the ground, yet when Enjin asked you to join us, you agreed without a second thought. Why?”
“For research! You are right I know nothing at all! That is why, I want to know every single thing. Your culture. Your history. Your people. The trash beast. The anima. Everything and anything, even if I have to turn every stone on this land upside down, I want to expose the truth of this world.” - You rambled on, expressing your thirst for knowledge with passion in your eyes.
Arkha is simply listening on your ramble, even when you start showing him your journal, which is inside a bag you have on your waist, and begin yapping about everything you have written down. The leader of the cleaner watches you flip each page of the journal, explaining your analysis on anima, the no-eye trash beast in detail to him, and he has to admit your work is impressive. You not only make comparisons between the trash beast and the animals that have similar features as them, but you also theorize about their weakness, attack patterns based on those features.
While listening to your rambles, Arkha realizes you are a kindred spirit. A similar soul, who instead of fearing unknown, you embrace it, confront it even. You would even tear it apart just so you can witness the truth yourself and he would help you do it.
Putting his hand on your shoulder, Arkha wants to welcome you to the cleaner, yet what comes out of his mouth is his own opinions about your theories and analysis, which starts a long discussion that will become a treasure memory for the both of you in the future. Giving a nod to Semiu, Arkha guides you to the couch to continue your discussion with his hand on your back. He knows he isn't going to have any sleep tonight, but he wouldn’t trade this moment for the world.
Seeing a light nod for her boss, Semiu quietly leaves the room and closes the door with a soft click. As she makes her ways to find August, the cleaner’s artisan, to commission him your cleaner uniform and full face, Semiu can’t help but let a small smile adorned her face. It looks like she is going to have a new team member.
.

The next day, you wake up in an unfamiliar room with a note next to your head. After reading it, you have come to understand your situation. Apparently, yesterday you fell asleep in the middle of your discussion with Arkha about different types of trash beasts so he carried you to your new room. He left you a note, a key to your room, before leaving and locking the door. He even put your dagger aside to make you more comfortable. What a gentleman.
Making sure your door is locked properly, you unsheathe your dagger, holding its blade between your fingers gently.
“Obby…” - You whispered
At the call of its name, the blade slowly morphs into a black pixie dragon with golden eyes, your familiar, your partner in crime, your family, Obby.
“Kyuu~” - The small dragon rubs his scaly head on the palm of your hand, welcoming the warmth emitted from it.
Every witch has their own familiar that has a compatible magic affinity with them. Some only have one, others have more. In your case, Obby is a dragon that has affinity for dark magic, specifically shadow manipulation. He can transform into anything no matter the size, by changing the shape of his shadow. However, he can’t manipulate others' shadows but his own, not to mention, his magical level is impressive for a human, but it is nothing but an insult for his own kind. Just like you, he is shunned by his own kind, two defective outcasts flock together, and you wouldn’t trade him for the world. Letting him climb on your shoulder and nuzzling into your cheek, you stand up, getting ready for another new day in this world, which you are going to turn into one of your biggest experiments ever.
Hollow!Sans – his nickname speaks for himself. His soul is always empty and unable to give magic or feelings. Hollow is doomed to absorb the souls of others to make up for his own shortcomings. He is similar to Ink!Sans, but is his most horrible reflection.
His story
He came from an alternate branch of Undertale, where Chara and Asriel didn't dare to come to the surface. This changed history and in the future, Sans became an ambitious royal guardian while his father Gaster conducted an experiment to create the perfect living weapon, which was to be humanity's deterrent to conclude a complete world. And that weapon by all tests became Sans himself. Sans' soul had to absorb the power of the CORE to make Sans the strongest monster in the world. But something went wrong. The CORE began to overload Sans's soul too quickly and subsequently collapsed and exploded.
The entire universe was wiped out and only Sans was left alive. Or rather, the skeleton that was Sans. When he woke up, the only thing that was with him was his soul. Empty, without a hint of anything left. And just as his soul itself was empty, Sans' entire personality and memories were also empty. No magic, no feelings. Nothing. Over time, this led to powerful psychological symptoms and dissociative identity disorder.
It would have gone on like that if a wanderer - another Sans - hadn't arrived in his world. He tried to help the poor man, but he was concerned about what was in front of his eyes - the soul. Without thinking, he pounced on his savior like a wild, ravenous beast and devoured his soul. Eventually he managed to feel alive for the first time in an unknown amount of time. Emotions, memories, magic. It all flowed through Hollow's body. And seeing through the portal of the murdered Sans a whole universe filled with souls, it was not hard to understand what had become of this universe. He later realized that he too had powers that could help him go anywhere in the multiverse he wanted. All he needed was his blood. So, Hollow absorbed souls from one world after another. Hollow began to learn his new powers, abilities, and slowly mimicked intelligent beings until he eventually resembled a гusual monster himself. Hollow began to perfectly mimic all the feelings that humans and monsters have. He gained an incredible amount of knowledge. He became practically normal. But behind this mask of normalcy still lives a predator that has only one goal - to eat souls, because Hollow is a Soul Devourer.
His personality
His character is extremely difficult to define. Initially there are no feelings or emotions in him, only a thirst to devour. However, when he is not hungry, he can be described as neutral as possible. Whereas the colors create chaos in Ink's character, Hollow remains neutral after eating souls. It's just that he gets the opportunity to impersonate others. He smiles, he's sad, he's angry, but all of these emotions are just copied from the souls. That can often be revealed by his eyes if you look closely. It's hard for me to explain how his emotional spectrum works, but if he was a character in a D&D game, he'd definitely have the Unaligned characteristic.
As mentioned earlier, he may have a psychological attack causing dissociative identity disorder. But this only happens when Hollow is hungry, so he doesn't drive himself to such a state.
His abilities
Absorbing souls
Hollow's key ability. You can visually see it on his face: lines running down his cheeks from his mouth. It's the separation between his lower and upper jaw. In normal conversation, he keeps them connected.
When Hollow eats another's soul, it begins to digest in him and turns into a liquid that is extremely blood-like. Over time, this fluid disappears from Hollow's body, so souls are his constant diet.
This power also includes the ability to see directly the soul of every human and monster, as well as grabbing it and ripping it out of the body without too much difficulty.
It's worth keeping in mind that each soul has a different fill percentage. If he goes over 100%, Hollow, like Ink, will vomit. The fill percentage also affects the eyes and appearance of Hollow's soul.
Blood portals
From his liquid, if Hollow spills it and thinks about where he wants to go, a portal to the desired place will open in front of him for a while.
Copying
Naturally, if Hollow eats some soul, he can temporarily copy all of its abilities. However, the longer he uses magic, the faster Hollow gets hungry again, so he tries to conserve his powers.
Multiverses dreams
Hollow's unique power. Allows him to find himself inside the body of another version of himself while sleeping. He will not control it, only watch it, which is comparable to a first-person dream. But this is not a dream, but an opportunity to behold another's Multiverse and its events. In each dream, he sees a random multiverse.
Rarely does he get to see dreams where he sees snippets of the soul owners' memories.
Additional information
Hollow has a personal list of multiverses that he keeps in his head that other versions of him know about;
It follows that Hollow's memory is incredibly phenomenal and is photographic;
Of his belongings, he carries a dark brown side bag in which he keeps: a clerical knife, bandages, a marker, and soul vials that he stole from the Science!Sans universe;
Hollow's blood portals can't lead to someone. Only to somewhere.
Instead of teleportation, Hollow more often uses Undyne's spears as a means of transportation, standing on them as if on a surfboard or skateboard;
Keeps a tally of the universes it has devastated under the Papyrus glove;
Hollow is the most unusable vessel for the Fresh Parasite;
Hollow's birthday coincides with World Food Day (16 October);
Under no circumstances will Hollow eat the souls of Dream, Nightmare and Error. For that reason, he tries to stay away from all of them;
His offical tags: #HollowSans, #Hollow_Sans, #Hollow!Sans;

Death by failing from great height should scare most people, but you, dear reader, are not most people. In fact, you are not even a human, you are what people called a hybrid, a being that is made from little parts of everything. You are a meister, a demon weapon and a witch ( in power not genders). However, you weren’t born as a demon weapon, but a witch. It is due to an experiment from your mother dearest that now, you have all abilities of a demon weapon, except phase-shifting, a skill which allows a demon weapon to transform into a weapon, and magic skills of an average witch.
After aiding DWMA in the battle with the Kishin, you have retreated back to the shadow and started a life of experimenting magic spells and occasionally dealing with evil individuals under Shinigami’s order. During one of your experiments, you have accidentally created a portal… well more like an explosion that transported you to another world. Thus, this is why you are now free falling from the sky toward the polluted ground below.
.
.
.
.
<< Meanwhile, on the ground>>
After the huge explosion in the sky, everyone on the ground can clearly see something fall from it, leaving a trace of smoke. Thus, the cleaners have immediately dispatched a team to investigate. The said team is already at the location, where you should be landing, and they have already taken their position.
“Ok, remember everyone, our mission here is to investigate. Do not engage, unless the target is hostile.” - Enjin, the man with blond hair and a tattoo body, commanded his team Akuta
“Aren’t you excited Rudo? A fellow sphereite is here!!” - Riyo said excitedly, giving a teenager beside her a nudge
“Eh..? We don’t even know if that is a person or something else… but yeah… I’m kinda excited, I guess.” - Rudo, the teenager said, scratching his head.
“It is fine to be excited but don’t you dare scream like last time, you brat!” - Enjin whisper yelled to the teen
“Hah!! That was -” - Before Rudo can even start screaming, Gris has already covered his mouth.
“Please, don’t provoke him, Enjin.” - The blond supporter released a sigh through his mask.
Fortunately, when there was an explosion in the sky, the no-eye trash beasts of this zone have gathered at one place, due to their reaction to sound, and the cleaner team is in the appropriate distance not to be spotted by them, if they whisper that is. As the team is patiently waiting, they suddenly hear a manic laughter from the sky.
“HAHAHHAHA” - You are having the greatest time ever. After all, it is not everyday you are teleported to some unknown place.
Despite the fact that you are descending down at a rapid speed, you don’t care about your situation at all. You are too busy immersing yourself in the feeling of so many new souls you haven’t seen before. Concentrating your soul wavelength into your feet, you not only land on the head of the trash beast, but also cut its head clean off and create a powerful shockwave when the head drops off to the ground. Standing proudly on the remnant of the trash beast’s skull, you said with a cocky grin.
“So… are you guys a new species of monster?”
You may be defective as a demon weapon and an average joe as a witch, but you are a master at controlling soul wavelength, even more skilled than Franken Stein himself. In other words, you are a monster in your own league with the ability to amp up the soul wavelength of a demon weapon and the mastery in manipulating the soul wavelength of a meister.
As if to prove to this new world what you are made of, you are destroying those trash beasts left and right, by punching and kicking with concentrated wavelength fists and feet. There is one trash beast trying to smash you with its gigantic hand, only for you to dodge and run up its arm, delivering a powerful kick that blasts its head off to the side, shooting through the other two trash beasts.
Seeing your magnificent performance of strength, the cleaner team all have different expressions of shock on their faces.
“A- Are they a giver?? They clean those trash beasts so fast!!”
“Another sphereite that is a giver! What a lucky day!”
However, they immediately hide behind Enjin’s jinki, Umbreaker, when they see you jumping high up in the air with a concentrated high amount of wavelength in your fist before releasing it at the herd of trash beasts below, creating a powerful shockwave that flatten those monsters like pancakes. The shockwave is so powerful, it blows garbage everywhere, but thanks to Enjin’s Umbreaker, every member of the team is safe and sound.
Landing on the ground after the massacre of trash beasts, you flick your fingers, gathering the surrounding anima, which you mistook as souls, into one big orb and chomp down on them.
“Well, that is a new flavour” - You said, licking your lips.
Each member of the cleaner is stunned into silence, at the sight of you eating anima, the Anima, the vital energy. Nobody is supposed to do that. However, the sound of you coughing up blood pulls them back to reality and in the blink of an eye, Enjin puts a mask on you, as Gris is picking you up bridal style.
.

After being treated by Alice, an old doctor who is overjoyed when you recognize her as a woman, you have arrived at the cleaner's HQ. Semiu, the receptionist, greets you and the cleaners with a nod, while she is holding a dirty magazine.
“Yo, Semiu!! You don’t believe who we found today!!” - Enjin excitedly said, putting his arm over your shoulder.
“Enjin no… ” - Semiu glances at you, a tired expression is shown briefly on her face.
“Enjin YES!!”
“Rudo just joined the cleaner and you found another one ?”
“I know right!! I must have a talent for finding strong givers!!”
At this point, you are aware that you are in another world, if not for the explanation the cleaners gave you after your treatment, then it is the strange connection between their souls and their vital instruments.
‘Uhmm… It is similar to the relationship between meisters and demon weapons, I guess’ - you are lost in your train of thought, until Enjin shakes you out of it
“Come on, newbie, introduce yourself!” - Enjin gives you a little shoulder hug, squishing his cheek to yours.
“I don’t have any name but you can call me Joker. Pleasure to meet you.”
“Alright Joker, let me give you a look over” - Semiu said, as her eyes and glasses shine a golden light.
However, the moment she lands her eyes on you, she immediately closes them out of pain.
“SEMIU!! Are you ok?” - Riyo reaches to Semiu's side, catching her before she falls.
“...Anima …Their anima is so enormous. It is like looking directly at the sun”
‘Anima? Right… vital energy… hm I wonder if it is similar to how soul wavelength works…’
“There… I turn it down a notch, would you mind giving me another look over?”
“Turn it down ?” - Semiu is confused, but reluctantly, she gives you another look and the energy that shines so bright like a sun has shimmered down to an ember.- “What the…?”
“Semiu, what is it?” - Enjin asked, concern laced in his voice.
“They are no giver… yet they can control their anima.”
Upon hearing Semiu’s words, everyone’s eyes turn on you and their reaction is justifiable. After all, they haven’t heard of anyone who can control anima at will, they know givers can give their anima to their beloved objects, but not a single one of them can manipulate their own anima.
“Wait… If you aren’t a giver then… the reason those trash beasts didn’t come back is because you swallowed their anima?” - Enjin said, realization in his golden eyes.
“Oh yeah!!” - You answered Enjin with a big smile on your face, giving him a thumbs up, unaware of how much of a shocking revelation that is.
“I need a drink… “- Semiu said, releasing a big sigh.

Amo has always made people happy with her vital instrument, even though they would end up angry at her afterward. However, this time she has poked the wrong bear… no the sleeping dragon.
“WAAHHH!! You attacked Amo’s fan!! You meanie!! Why would you protect the party pooper??!! We can’t have a chat if he is here to ruin everything!” - Amo whined, before a lopsided smile appeared on her face - “Well, that is fine~ Amo has more than one friend after all~”
Hearing Amo’s words, Zanka starts confronting her head-on but you can barely listen to what he is saying. You are more focused on the sweet scent surrounding you.
‘Was there a smell from the beginning?’ - You thought, before your eyes widened in surprise
Before you, the figure of your allies morph and transform into the image of your mother, the culprit of all the scars and stitches on your body. The one that made you into a hybrid, your mother dearest, the Witch of Sewing.
Upon seeing her appearance, you subconsciously cover the entire tower with your murderous wavelength, which makes everyone activate their jinki, and for Amo to increase the amount of smell she releases from her jinki. After all, what they feel right now is more than just a shiver, it is something that awakens their survival instinct, it is Death, and all of that deathly intent is coming out of you like waves.
Before everyone can react to your sudden mood change, they are suddenly hit with the feeling of their heads getting chopped off. It is only when they check their own necks, realizing their heads are still intact that their shoulders relax a little bit, knowing they are still alive.
Luckily for them, the moment you hold your dagger and feel the wavelength of your familiar, you instantly come back to your senses before you could chop off all of your friends ' heads.
‘Obby… he is here… I am not alone…I am fine.. breathe.. deep breathe’ - You thought, feeling grateful that Obby is here and whatever it is that causes you to hallucinate can’t affect him. After all, your dragon friend has transformed into a dagger and a dagger doesn't have a nose.
As you stand there, still holding onto your dagger, you close your eyes, trying to feel the presence of the nearby souls instead of looking at it, in fear of seeing your mother’s hallucinations again. You can sense it, the shape, the energy of familiar souls of the cleaners, and the new soul you just acquainted, Amo.
‘These souls… they aren’t hers.. Of course, she isn’t here, she couldn’t… get your shit together, Joker.. but then how did I see-’
Suddenly, you burst out laughing, which dismisses the murderous wavelength that has been seeping out of you, and makes your friends look at you in surprise, even Amo is confused about your action.
Putting on your gas mask, your usual clam voice is back - “It is the smell, isn’t it? Your power is to manipulate people by making them hallucinate through inhaling the smell released from your jinki”
“Then all we need to do is put on our mask” - Zanka said, putting on his own mask, as other members follow suit
“That explains why you were so demanding that we take our mask off” - Enjin said, while having his mask on and activating his own jinki
As for Amo,she doesn’t like the way you spoil the mood. - “You are one smart cookie, dagger, but next time keep it to yourself. Nobody likes a party pooper.”
Amo lets out a huff, before continuing -” Well, that is fine. Mask or not, some of you has already become Amo’s fans~”
As if her “fans” want to prove she is right, Rudo and Follo suddenly throw punches at Enjin and Zanka when they try to subdue Amo, and Riyo is in a daze, seeing things no one can but her, even when she has her mask on.
Amo stares at you, putting a finger on her chin - “Amo doesn’t understand, Dagger is also one of her fans, why don’t you want to protect her?”
“Sure, I’m still under your influenced, but as long as I cover my eyes, I don’t see you as my loved one anymore” - you answered Amo, while putting a blind fold over your eyes
After hearing your answer, Amo bursts out laughing - “You are funny, Dagger, but you don't have to hold back on your feelings. Amo knows you want to admire her ~ everyone does ~”
The moment Amo finishes speaking, you unsheath your dagger, using it to deflect two beams of water without looking at the culprit, Delmon, who has awoken from a nap you put him into.
“That is impressive!” - Tamsy said, standing behind you, with his back turned - “Sorry for letting you handle it. I didn’t expect him to get up.”
“That is alright. I didn’t see him coming either” - You said, looking over your shoulder to let Tamsy sees your face, which is being blind folded
“Pfft. HaHahHa! I’m glad you can still be optimistic in this situation” - Tamsy lets out a chuckle, before addressing Zanka and Enjin - “You two, stay close to me. I don’t want to hit you with my jinki”
Upon Tamsy’s request, Zanka and Enjin immediately regroup with you, as the four of you slowly surrounded by your hallucinated allies. Tamsy releases a sigh, before pulling out his vital instrument.
“Toukishin”
At his command, the small distaff turns into a bigger one and when he uses his hand to unreel the rope on it, the rope spins in circular movement across the whole area, making a net and trapping Amo’s fans in it.
“Come one, everyone, do something!!”
“Now, now, don’t move around too much, you only hurt yourself even more” - Tamsy said, when he saw his fellow cleaners trying to wiggle out of the net.
“You’re wrong! They will do anything to help Amo, no matter how painful it is!!”
Letting out a sigh, Tamsy uses his hand to spin his jinki again. This time, he reels in the ropes, creating a large spool with Amo’s fans trapped inside, in order to prevent them from moving.
“Lady, turn them back to normal. Deactivate your vital instrument.” - You said to Amo, who was hanging upside down, thanks to Tamsy, yet the girl ignored you completely and just let out a blooding scream.
“Amo hasn’t been beaten like this in a long time!! You.. terrible… awful… MEANIES!! WAAHHH!! WAAAHHHH!! HELPPP MMEEE!!!”
Upon hearing Amo’s cry for help, your manipulated friends try to get out of the spool despite hurting themselves in the process, while chanting “No forgiveness!” and threatening you. As for you, you are so done with all of this whining, crying and screaming. With the last of your patience running out, you clap your hands together, creating a loud booming noise and through that sound, you transfer your soul wavelength to Amo and people who are hallucinating, without directly touching them.
Within a few seconds, the screaming mobs and crying Amo suddenly stop moving, as stitches made from your soul energy stretch all over their bodies, restricting their movement to the point they can’t even speak.
This is a soul technique you have learned from Stein. By transferring your soul wavelength to your target, you can create stitches, which run across the target’s body, and use them to manipulate the target’s action. In Stein’s case, he has to be in physical contact to be able to restrict his opponent’s body, but for you, you just need to use a soundwave you created to transfer your soul wavelength to one or many targets at the same time.
“Turn them back.” - You commanded, and before Amo could let out any retort, you directed your murderous wavelength on her, making the girl freeze up, while breaking out in a cold sweat.
“Turn. Them. Back”
Even with a blind fold on, Amo still can feel your eyes glaring into her soul. It reminds her of the deadly aura she had sensed in a few minutes after she activated her jinki… so it was you. She doesn’t know what you see, but she knows you are supposed to be happy, so why… Why do you look like you are about to kill her right now? Is she going to die? No… NO SHE DOESN’T WANT TO DIE.
Letting out a choked sob, Amo subconsciously deactivated her vital instrument, as everyone who is being manipulated, coming back to their senses. Seeing Amo’s fans have returned to normal, Tamsy also deactivates his jinki, releasing people who are trapped, he even lets Amo go as well.
“...Joker, everyone has returned to normal. It is alright now” - Enjin said, putting his hand on your shoulder.
Releasing a heavy sigh, you let go of your control on other people’s bodies, as the soul stitches on their body start fading away, you also stop sending murderous wavelengths to Amo. Taking off your blind fold, you are greeted with the sight of your friends being confused, as well as being bewildered at the situation, and a frozen up Amo with tears running down on her face.

Zanka knows he himself isn’t a genius, he is just an average joe, who thinks he is the best in his own little world. Perhaps, that is why he wants to spar with you, to see whether you are actually powerful or not. Enjin and Riyo have been telling him how cool and awesome you were when you fought trash beasts, and he wants to see if they are right.
Pointing his vital instrument in your direction, he is shocked to see you cover your eyes with a blind fold, before unsheathing your dagger.
“... What is the meaning of this? Why do you cover your eyes?” - Zanka asked, his hands clenched tighter around his weapon.
“Oh, this! I just want to even the playing field.”
Upon hearing your answer, a tick mark appears on Zanka’s forehead, as he lunges forward at you with murderous intent. However, he couldn't land a hit on you no matter how hard he tries. He keeps hitting you with fast and precise blows, only for you to parry them with ease.
Zanka swings his staff from above in a wide arch, aiming to disarm you, but instead of parrying his attack, you let go of your dagger, letting it fall in the same direction of Zanka’s blow. Then, you lunge forward, catching the end of the dagger’s handle before it could touch the ground, and swing it from below at a rapid speed.
You would have successfully landed a hit on Zanka, if not for his fast reflex to block your attack in time with his staff.
‘Tch!! They dodged my attack by letting go of their weapon, then catching the end of their dagger’s handle to increase their range of attack!’ - Zanka analyzed your last move, but your voice interrupted his line of thoughts.
“My turn”
Before Zanka has the time to react, you already appear in front of him, the tip of your dagger is so close to his face that he can feel the coldness of the metal. Fortunately, he manages to lean his head to the side in time, resulting in a few strands of his hair getting cut by you.
Jumping backward, Zanka swings his staff sideways to create some distance from you, only for you to use his momentum to redirect his flow of attack. You use the edge of the blade to smoothly lift the staff over your head and then bring it down to the other side. The moment your weapon is on top of his, you rush towards him rapidly, putting your dagger close to his neck.
You turn your head in Zaka’s direction, looking at him through your blind fold. - “ I won~!” - You announced with a smile on your face.
Zanka isn’t blind, he can see the skill gap between you and him, you move your dagger like it is an extension of your body and that is not something you can do without endless practice. You not only have the abilities to manipulate anima, but your fighting skills are also great… no extraordinary as well. Once again, Zanka is being made aware of how average he is, how much harder he needs to train.
“Ahhhh, I lost this time. You sure are good. Haha!” - Zanka said with a smile, but you notice how that his smile doesn’t reach his eyes, the way his hands clenched tighter around his weapon and the look in his eyes remind you of someone, who put so much pressure on himself because he undervalues his efforts.
“Zanka… Let’s have some ice pops.” - You sheath your dagger, before pulling Zanka along with you.
“W-What?!! Let me go! And why are we having ice pop?”
“If you are sad, sweets can always make you feel better!” - You grinned at him, leaving the other members of team Akuta behind at the training ground.

After asking the staff to let you make some lemon ice pops in their kitchen, you and Zanka are now enjoying the sweet frozen treats… well only you, Zanka is staying silent the whole time.
“... You don’t have to take pity on me, you know. I lost because I’m still lacking, it is my fault for being mediocre.”
“You know, Zanka… in the eyes of society, I’m actually defective. I am never gifted or having talents that other people are blessed with when they were born. The skills I have mastered are things everyone can do, if they invest their time and effort into it.”
“....”
“So I decided to develop the skills that I have and use them in a way only I can… The point is, there is always someone who is better than you at something, but that doesn’t mean you are bad at it. You shouldn’t undervalue your own achievements and efforts by comparing yourself to others. Be kinder to yourself, Zanka.”
Zanka stays silent for a while, then suddenly, he starts eating his ice pop aggressively - “The ice pop… it is good” - He keeps his head low, trying his best not to cry in front of you - “Thanks… “
You stay silent, giving him a pat on the head with a soft smile on your face. Both of you just stay in comfortable silence for a few minutes, until Enjin interrupts the peace by resting his chin on your head.
“Wooahh~ Did you make this? I don’t know, you can cook!!”
“Heh. Want some?” - You offer Enjin one of the ice pops, only for him to hold your hand, while taking a bite out of the frozen treat and maintaining eye contact with you.
You would have blush, if not for the fact that you just witnessed the man take a bite out of the cold treat, like it is a butter stick, and not get a brain freeze. What kind of sorcery is this ?! You are both impressed and horrified. As for Enjin, he just thinks your reaction is amusing.
However, the sound of Rudo aggressively devouring all the ice pops broke your eyes contact with Enjin.
“Rudo, stop eating so much or you will have to go on a diet again ~ “ Riyo teased, while enjoying her own ice pop. - “Oh, thanks for the treat, Joker” - Riyo glances at you, before turning her attention back to Rudo, who is now being held back by Zanka.
“S-Stop it, Rudo!! That is enough sweets for you!!”
As chaos ensues in the kitchen, you quietly take one of the ice pops and make your way back to your room. However, you are not alone, Enjin has been walking behind you all this time.
“Can I help you with something, Enjin?”
“I… I just want to say thank you for saying all of that to Zanka. He needs it.” - Enjin said with a soft smile on his face, leaning himself on the nearby wall.
“Ahh, it is no problem. I… simply said what I wished someone would say to me back then.”
“Still… thank you”
“You are welcome”
“ And Joker?”
“Yeah?”
“You aren’t defective, at least not in my eyes.”
“...Thanks. Well, see you tomorrow, Enjin” - You gave the blond cleaner a small nod, before retreating back to your room.
Back in your room, Obby transforms from a dagger back to his original form. You give him the frozen treat that you took earlier, while cooing at him.
“Thanks for your hard word, today!”
“Kuyyyuuu~” - The small dragon warps his tail around one of your fingers in response, as he keeps devouring the treat.
“You aren’t defective, at least not in my eyes.”
“You know, Obby. Someone out there doesn’t think I’m defective… Perhaps, one day I can believe his words.” - You told Obby, scratching his scaly head with your index finger.

Chapters master list
The cleaner’s artisan, August, is more energetic than you expect, like a bird that is having a sugar rush. After you just finished brushing your teeth, he was already knocking at your room multiple times, and when you opened the door for him, he simply pulled you along while making a bee line to his workshop at a rapid speed. Hence, this is why you are now standing inside his workshop, letting him get your measurement and answering his questions about… well everything he can think of, from what do you want your uniform to look like, to what is your favourite colour. It feels like you have spent a month of social battery, after having a 5 minute conservation with him.
Fortunately for you, you aren’t enduring this alone, touching the dagger at your lower back, you remind yourself that you still have Obby, knowing that fact makes you breathe easier. When August dragged you out of your room, Obby was fast enough to turn himself into a dagger and his presence is the only thing that keeps you sane right now. As you are trying your best to pay attention to what August is rambling about, the door of the workshop is suddenly opened.
“Hey, August! Do you have any spare supporter uniforms? Ours got teared apart from the previous mission.” - Gris along with Tomme and Follo entered the room.
“OF COURSE I HAVE!! I PUT THEM ON THE SHELVE OVER THERE!! HELP YOURSELF, MY MAN!!” - August answered with the an energy that an average person doesn’t have in the morning
As Gris and his fellow supporters go and grab the uniforms, his eyes land on you. - “Oh, it is you! How are you doing?”
“Ah, I am fine now. Thanks for carrying me to the clinic back then…urm… “
“Gris! I am Gris Rubion, sorry for the late introduction, and this is Tomme and Follo” - Gris shaked hand with you, as you gave a polite nod to Tomme and Follo separately
“I am Joker. Nice to meet you all.”
“If you guys are just standing here and chatting, do it outside!! I have work to do and Joker, thanks for the measurement and ideas! I will let Semiu know when I finish your uniform and mask!!” - August yelled with a wide smile on his face, pushing everyone out of his workshop.
Before you can even bid goodbye to the supporters and go your merry way, your stomach lets out a growl.
“Um… Do you know where the kitchen is?” - You asked Gris, trying your best not to blush at the embarrassed moment.
“Heh… How about we have some breakfast together?” - Gris let out a small chuckle, leading you to the dining room.

“Woah… you sure are hungry, huh?” - Gris said, watching you scarf down the food and licking the plate clean.
“Well… I didn’t eat anything yesterday so yeah I am starving” - You said, piling up another plate. Obviously, you also gave a few pieces of food to your dear Obby sneakily.
“Oh! I heard August said he was making your uniform! Does this mean you are officially a cleaner?” - Follo asked, changing the topic.
“Yeah… Semiu asked him to make me a full face as well.”
“Oh! That is great! Congratulations! From now on, we are counting on you as supporters!!” - Gris said, giving your shoulder a few pats.
“Supporter?”
Upon hearing your questions, Tomme starts explaining the role of supporter and cleaner in a team, along with Gris and Follo occasionally chiming in to describe their jobs and what they can do.
“A-Amazing!! All of you are amazing!!” - You exclaimed with stars in your eyes.
“Uh… It is nothing really… I mean that is all we can do. We aren’t giver, we can’t destroy trash beats.” - Follo said with his head hung low, his hands clenched tightly at his knees.
“So what? Giver or not, you are risking your life out there, whether or not you are fighting for yourself or for others, you are doing your best, giving your all for your dreams and ideas. If that isn’t amazing, I don’t know what is.”
All three supporters are stunned into silence, they expected you to pity them, or even ridicule them for being supporters, but you have praised them, like you were stating a fact, like it was a declaration, not a debate. Not to mention, the way you looked at them when you said it, makes them feel like you are challenging them, daring them to prove you wrong.
“T-Thanks… We appreciate it.” - Tomme is the one who broke the silence, trying not to sound too emotional.
“Say… How about we show you around?” - Gris suggested, changing the topic and hiding his blush at what you just said.
While walking around the headquarters, you and the trio supporters have light conservation with each other about mundane things, like your hobby or your favourite food, but when you reach the training ground, seeing Rudo is training with other members of team Akuta, you bid the supporters goodbye to join them.
“See you guys later! Thanks for showing me around!”
“No problem! See you around!”
“See ya!”
“Oh right, Follo?”
“Yeah?”
“That hammer… Are you planning to make it your vital instrument?”
“Yeah… What of it?” - Follo unconsciously clenched his hand around the hammer’s handle, expecting you to tell him how delusional it is.
“I can see a connection between you and the hammer. It is faint, but it is there. Whatever you are doing, it is working, keep at it.”
Unbeknown to you, when you turn your back to Follo and his fellow supporters, tears are flowing down on Follo’s face. It has been years since he joined the cleaner as supporters, this is the first time someone gave him a clarification that yes, he is becoming a giver, he can make his dream come true. Follo hangs his head low, while Gris and Tomme are patting his head. The trio supporters may not tell you outright how much your words mean to them, but they promise themselves to show you the same sentiment you gave them, to support you in any way they can.

“How is your training, Rudo?” - You said, ruffling the teen's hair and giving other cleaners a wave.
“U- Urm… It went well. Thanks to Zanka, I figured out how to activate my power.” - Rudo shyly said.
In the next few minutes, Rudo proceeds to explain to you how his power works, in which you congratulate him for taking the first step to master his vital instrument. You even praise Zanka for figuring out Rudo’s power, which makes the teen’s ears blush red and his ego inflates. Since Rudo already told you about his vital instrument, you decide to tell them about your abilities, as much as you told Semiu anyway. It is only fair.
“Yooo!! You can be both combatant and support with those abilities, you know! That is sick!” - Enji exclaimed, giving you a few pats on the back.
“Yeah, you can boost your teammate and beat your enemies at the same time! It is two birds with one stone!!” - Riyo chimed in with her usual enthusiastic smile.
Zanka is simply in his own thoughts, analyzing your powers in his mind. As for Rudo… well, he is doing his best to process the new information.
Picking up the trash that Rudo has turned into a vital instrument, you start feeling the anima inside it and suddenly, an idea pops in your head.
“Hey, Rudo!. Can I borrow this? I want to try something.” - You said, waving the triangle ruler that Rudo has used his power on.
“Uh… Sure, I haven’t deactivated my power, so yeah… you can use it.” - Rudo replied back, awkwardly scratching the back of his head.
If your theory is correct, then anima can be seen and controlled in the same context as manipulating soul wavelengths. In other words, whatever technique you have mastered in controlling soul energy, you can apply it to anima as well.
Feeling Rudo’s anima inside the object, you start transferring your soul wavelength inside it, making sure it matches with the amount and frequency of the object’s anima.Slowly and surely, you merge your soul wavelength with Rudo’s anima, combining two vital energies into one.
‘Soul Resonance’
Suddenly, the triangle ruler is covered in a strange light, which transforms it into an even bigger ruler with one of the pointy edges stretched out into a blade. Holding the ruler in one hand, you slash it into the ground, creating a deep crack on it.
Witnessing the power of your soul resonance attack, every member of team Akuta is once again stunned into silence. However, before Enjin could break the silence by saying how sick that was, Zanka decided to speak up.
“...Joker, let’s have a spar” - Zanka said, activating his vital instrument, pointing his staff at you in challenge.
