The night enveloped the city, casting a shroud of darkness upon the bustling street. Pedestrians hurried along, undeterred by the cold. The corners of the avenue echoed with animated chatter. Illumination flowed from ornate lamps, painting the entire street in a warm glow. Stalls were scattered across the area, creating a vibrant atmosphere.
Amidst this scene, a young man with crimson hair found himself captivated by the ambiance, transported to feudal Japan. Guards adorned in Yukatas and armed with ancient katanas patrolled the area.
The women, all dressed in a variety of Kimonos, added a touch of elegance with their diverse colors and shapes. Shuuta was keenly aware of the exquisite craftsmanship in their clothing, hinting at its luxurious quality and perhaps hefty price. Shuuta shook his head, reminding himself of his purpose.
He wasn't here for leisure or shopping; he had a mission to accomplish.
"So, how did it go?" Kakoyo's voice held a tinge of irritation, her impatience evident. "It went really well! We had a lovely date," Yuri responded, her words carrying a hint of wistfulness. "At least, it felt romantic to me..." Evidently, Hikaru, Kakoyo, and Yuri had conspired to create a storm of plans aimed at easing Shuuta's stress and bringing a smile to his face. Their scheme involved taking Shuuta out on a date. Of course, Hikaru wasn't tagging along; the date was to be shared between Kakoyo and Yuri. The two engaged in a fierce game of paper-rock-scissors to decide, and the outcome was Yuri's victory. "He does seem happier," Hikaru noted, casting a glance back at Shuuta, who was in the midst of performing his thousandth katana swing. Each swing was a testament to his dedication, honing his technique under Kento's guidance and infusing his attacks with newfound power.
"Another Owner?" A faint voice coursed through a small room; peer pressure filled the dim space, eerie vibes contained its grey walls; a young lad was utterly startled by that feeling, his eyes wanted to shut themselves, but his emotions held him back. Those sparkly silver eyes were glistening; his body looked like a shake-weight getting jerked aggressively by an athlete; he felt as if some pair of eyes were glued on his body. "Interesting..." An entity spoke in a fervor way. "Interesting?!" He parroted with a glint of fear. "Why do I hear a voice?!" His mind went crazy; his intention to leave the house rose every second that passed. His eyes flickered around the small room to check if anything was out of the ordinary. His boxes were stacked the way he arrived. However, they look like an entity out of this world in the night, wanting his blood and guts.
Time passed by, it was finally time for P.E., and Shuuta was wholly excited; he heard that the P.E. teacher was a beauty in her 20s and that she's been single her whole life! Granted, Shuuta didn't know how a beauty would stay single for that long, was her standards too high? Or was she a lesbian? Most of the third-year students tried to hit on her, but she was ruthless towards all the poor fallen men. Her punishment became a daily thing, even teachers were terrorized by the things she did. She gained a badass yet heart-shattering nickname: The Warm Embrace of Death. "Do you think that she likes BDSM? I mean, she likes to punish her students, so I might as well take one for the team and find out! Heh heh." Kazuma's mouth was drooling uncontrollably; Shuuta just frowned at him. How the heck did he befriend such a guy? All the boys were staring in amazement and lust at th
"Shuuta...Shuuta! SHUUTA!" The cute ghost was screaming from the top of her lungs, she pouted cheeks fumed up for the fact that she spent 4 hours yelling, but the soulless idiot was still out of it…somehow. "It's been 4 hours! And you're still sitting there just staring blankly at the wall. What happened?" Hanako's face exploded with curiosity; what made him react like that? "D...a...t...e..." Shuuta's vague voice startled Hanako, she shook her head, did she hear date? "D-date?" Her curiosity nukes! Why did he say date like that?! "If you don't tell me what happened, I'll burn all your manga!" Hanako didn't give Shuuta a choice anymore. She was over it, 4 hours of yelling at a wall were sufficient for her to snap. Tremble* "What did you say?!" Shuuta instantly retorted; his eyes glowed red like a
Shuuta felt an electrifying wind being filtered into him, completely losing sense of his body and mind; Hanako was beyond shocked; her quivering hands couldn't stretch to help out the red-haired boy. "T-they already found him...? How can that be?" "Shuuta!" Her acute voice snapped the boy back into his sense; he gripped the man's wrist and somehow managed to do the same to him. The stranger felt his whole arm screaming with ardor, dandling his wrist away from Shuuta's grip; the man then retreated and huffed, shaking his hand. "D-Devour? Interesting magic, I thought you were at least a human, kid. Nonetheless, I shall slay you for that is my lord's will." "W-what the hell are you talking about? Magic? Are you delusional?" Shuuta perked up his eyes, weakened yet revolted with anger. The man suddenly laughed maniacally. "An ignorant fool with powerful Magic!" He grips his
"What was that about?!" Shuuta asks Hanako; his curiosity exploded after encountering a cultist maniac, and a blonde dude with powers. "What's a Mystic exactly?" "Where to begin with..." In the old times, Mystics are super-humans tasked to abolish all evil in the form of spirits, demons, and angels. Such powers were granted by the gods and devils to stop one another. "I guess that's a very compacted summary." Shuuta laughs at how short her explanation was. "And you're one of them!" Hanako exclaims while keeping her smile "WHAT?!?! FOR REAL?!" Blood almost oozed out of his mouth from Shuuta's shock; he can't believe that he was a motherfucking badass "wizard." "Why are you surprised…you were going toe to toe with that man." Hanako's brow began to burrow. "With great power comes gr
Shuuta almost tore his lungs from squealing the word 'What,' even some students were able to hear such a scream...wondering who the idiot who yelled was. "I respectfully decline!" Shuuta stood up from the bed and bowed at Noara. Noara, on the other hand, placed her right hand on her tiny mouth and started chuckling uncontrollably. "Dummy! That's if you want to! But no, that isn't the condition." Noara was still laughing at his reaction; in all his years of taking care of students who were hurt or sick, all had been very lustful or rather reserved, but this boy here lightens her mood by a lot. A slight grin paints her face. 'I will never stop teasing you...' Shuuta sounded off a loud sigh of relief. "My, my...you hate Mikazuki that much? That makes me sad because we're sisters, are we ugly?" Noara kept a coyly smile; she makes her way to Shuuta and pointed at his chest,
At lunchtime, Shuuta and Kazuma both went to the cafeteria; Hanako followed behind Shuuta, poking his sides and messing around with him. Kazuma glared confused, those little jumps that Shuuta did were creepy. While eating, they both were reticent; it was disturbing for them; Hanako was sitting next to Shuuta and was just shifting her gaze at Shuuta and Kazuma. 'Should I just go for it..? Ugh this silence is very loud!' "Do you believe in ghosts?" Shuuta finally killed the silence. "Uhh...I guess so, why do you ask?" "I'm sorry for lying, I'll tell you the truth." ... "So you were talking to a ghost?!" Kazuma responded with an excited voice. "Yeah, her name is Hanako." "Her? It's a girl?! Lucky you!" "Hey! She's listening!" &nb
