"I was exploring the dungeons, at first I had a party like you, but later, I... I became a lone wolf. I wasn't as strong as I am now a-and I..."
Kuro is struggling to find the right words to express herself, Azar though wasn't paying attention to Kuro, he gazed her face and the long black hair resting upon her shoulders. As he followed her hair down her shoulders he checked her chest and blushed a little bit, as the previous event came to his mind again.
"Tsk!"
And Azar got a punched to his head.
"I am trying to explain something to you and you are staring my breast... pervert!"
"How is it my fault?! It's not my fault a beauty like you showed up naked. You were a pervert first!"
Kuro blushed a little bit after hearing Azar calling her a beauty. But immediately straighten her face again.
"Azar focus, this is quite serious. Focus to my eyes."
"Alright alright."
"What was the last thing you heard?"
"You were struggling to say something, it was quite cute and I got distracted."
Kuro blushed again.
"*cough* So as I was saying, I-I lost my party because I was... not strong enough. So I ended up all alone exploring the dungeons as I was trying to get stronger, so I could never lost somebody again, but I don't have any time left, I must leave this place for some other business I must attend to."
"So, you lost your friends, because you weren't strong enough. Are you saying that, whoever hunted me down and almost killed me, will go after my friends next?"
"They won't be eliminated just yet. But if they go further down, they may get targeted. If you want to prevent that you must get stronger."
"And how am I going to know when I am strong enough?"
"I wish I could answer this question but it's totally different for everyone. And I wish I could say, you will feel like it , once you get to that point. The easiest way to know, is to try getting deeper into the dungeons. The deeper you go, the stronger the monsters."
"I see... but it could also prove me that I am not strong enough with a fatal way."
"Exactly."
"Now, the most important question... What kind of organization is targeting me?"
"They are called the..."
Azar felt weak, his body went numb his chest felt heavy and his hurt was burning, as he realized that this whole time, his blood were getting drained. And he cursed as he fainted.
Of course he woke up inside his world, and Keni was staring at him like she was judging him.
"Oh hey, Keni."
"Don't 'oh hey' me!"
"Eh?!"
"You little pervert, you saw a naked body and you immediately fell in love! With that pervert!"
"Keni... are you... jealous?"
"M-m-me jealous?! Why should I be jealous, don't get so cocky with yourself! You are not that appealing to make a demon fall in love with an idiot, good for nothing like you."
"If so... then why are you angry with me?"
"I am not angry!"
"Oh, what do we have here... a tsundere!"
"What did your stupid ass said?"
*'gulp' I can see something dark around her. Better cut it off.*
"Sorry, my love, it was just a joke."
"M-m-my lov... Hm, it wasn't even funny."
*Eeeh? She is definitely in love with me..."
"Uhm, Keni... Didn't you... grow?"
"Oh, It's because of this blue essence you absorbed. You should not take any more... If I grow more, we will change places and I will be the one controlling you."
"Eeeh? Did you absorb it?"
"Yes. A wave came and struck down on me giving me some of it."
"Where is the rest?"
"It should be traveling your eternal world."
"So it's lost?"
"Tsk, what a stupid question. Are you lost?"
"No why do you... Oh got it, I can call it whenever I want if I want to."
"Wow, you aren't that stupid in the end."
"Shut it, kid."
"Did-did you call me a kid just now? Get ready to taste the power of a kid then!"
"Oh no, I am too scared, someone help me. Not!"
Keni jumped to Azar's body and bit his neck, then she locked his neck inside her hands, kicked knee joint, as he fell to his knees.
"Are you scared now, idiot."
"Why should I?"
As he said he lower one of his shoulders throwing Keni down to the floor, he grabbed her hand just before she touched the ground to stop the fall.
Keni blushed and she kicked his legs throwing him to the ground. And just before he hit the ground, he woke up. His reflexes made him raise his hands to prevent the fall, but instead of the ground he felt something squishy and soft.
He opened his eyes and he saw Kuro. His head was resting to her laps and as he gazed upon her face, she blushed.
"Y-you can take off your hands, from my chest now."
Azar freaked out and jump a few meters away.
"I-I-I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do that, thereisthisdemoninsidemeandwewerefightingbutIwokeup..."
"Relax, there is no probl... did you just say there is a demon living inside you?"
"M-maybe?"
"Hmm, and that's why you fainted?"
"Ahh... no, I fainted because of this stone."
He said as he grabbed the stone that from blue it became red.
"Wait, is that, a drain-stone?"
"So that's how you call it."
"You had something so dangerous on you this whole time, and aren't they usually blue and not red?"
"Uhm, That's probably because my mana has infused with my blood."
"WHAT?!"
"Long story short, I don't have any mana system, and I ate a blue apple, and my magic teacher tried to force my mana system to open, and because I didn't have one as I already said, it forced it's way into my blood system, and now it seems to have been fused with it. Anyway! What about the organization?"
