Chereads / Tartaros Hunter / Chapter 3 - Chapter 2: Where Trouble Begins

Chapter 3 - Chapter 2: Where Trouble Begins

Karia was distracted by the whole class after thinking about what Rinne told him this morning, and speaking of the king of rome, the boy was sneakingly looking in the direction of the red-haired girl who could only stay calm listening to the teacher speak. The boy received a blow on the back, drawing the attention of the teacher, who was glaring at him due to the noise he caused in the middle of one of his classes, his math teacher was quite strict just like his teacher was history for nothing in the world should they make those two angry knowing that they are from two dangerous species of animals.

- Takamiya-san has something to say to the matter?

- N-Not really s-sir...

He was sweating a bit nervous when he saw how the middle-aged man gave him a rather cold and icy look, and he was not the only one who was uncomfortable by the look, the other students in the class were the same as him.

- Hmp!, with the next noise you hear you will have problems.

- Yes sir ... Hey! Be more careful!

- Mm? I don't know what you're talking about.

He turned back to give the girl a bad look for hitting him and attracting the teacher's attention, but from what he saw the girl did not want to reflect on that, instead it only made the boy get even more upset by going back to your current position. By the time he realized the first classes ended inadvertently, he had his lunch ready to go to the rooftop but was interrupted by a certain girl with dark blond hair who made a certain sign for him to follow her.

Once they reached a certain corridor away from people, the two remained for a few moments in a certain awkward silence, until the boy decided to break the silence they had between them.

- Is something wrong Alexis?

- Don't lie to me I want you to be honest Karia ... What happened to Sieg Hart?

- .....!

He wasn't ready to bring up this topic yet, let alone have to say it to his younger brother's best friend. He swallowed the lump he had in his throat to tell the girl what happened yesterday, he only focused on telling her the story, he did not even see the face the girl was putting on. At the end of telling what happened yesterday, Karia raised her head only to see the girl in front of her with a somewhat pensive expression, she opened her eyes to look at her senpai and talk to him about it.

- I understand what happened, and I'm sorry, maybe I should have told you before ... Well, I had a feeling somehow.

- Okay Alexis, something I can assure you is that I will bring Sieg back.

Alexis smiled at what the boy mentioned, giving him several slaps on his right shoulder, he gave him another smile but it was bigger than the previous one.

- I wish you luck hero.

- You can count on me!

The two said goodbye to each other to continue with their recess, Karia was climbing some steps to reach the roof where she found a certain blonde climbing on the railing. He just stared at the scene while his face was blank, on the other hand Shirou and Musashi were quite normal to that situation enjoying their lunches.

Deciding to ignore her blonde friend who seemed to be lamenting over some other confession she made to some other girl, she sat next to the two boys who looked like they were about to finish their lunches.

- Did he leave a letter in a girl's shoe rack again?

- It's right again Karia.

- And that girl had big breasts, right?

- Absolutely Karia-kun.

A bead of sweat formed behind his head knowing that no matter how much his friend wanted, he would not change even if twenty years passed. He had some of his lunch while chewing for a few moments, he really liked the peace he was in right now but he was sure it wouldn't last long.

- Something is bothering you?

The first to speak was Musashi who had his eyes closed enjoying some rice, Karia let out a smile she did not expect less from her best friend, she even knew that something was bothering him right now.

- I feel like something bothers me but I don't know how to explain it.

- You can tell us, you know we have no problem listening to the concerns of a friend.

- Thanks Shirou, it's just that I have a strange feeling that not everything will be fine...

The two boys stared at him for a few moments, they didn't know exactly what they were referring to but at least they had an idea of what their friend wanted to get to. This world was not perfect because there were still people who refused to abide by the laws set in this new world.

Although these three had a somewhat serious conversation, they still heard their blond friend complain about his rejection, they only let out a tired sigh between the three of them to get ready to lower him from where he was.

- Shin-kun come down from there.

- Nooo!! I don't want to go on living, just let me die!

He was doing quite a bit of drama as he climbed even further up the railing to sit on top, he really had to accept and acknowledge that most girls in the academy don't tolerate his lewd attitude.

- Come on Shinsou!, If you come down I promise to get you a girl!

- Seriously Takamiya!?

- Hahaha you are very active when it comes to talking about my girls Shin-kun.

Shinsou got off the railing in less than a second, looking with hopeful eyes at Karia who only scratches her cheek, they continued their normal recess having one or another chat. Even though the break ended and they had another quiet day, Karia still hadn't shaken off that bitter knowledge of having a bad feeling.

It did not leave his head as much as he wanted to forget about it, he spent most of the day thinking about that until the time of departure. Already in the afternoon I could see how some students went home after their hard day at the academy, meanwhile Karia went to the fourth floor to have a chat with Rinne.

- But .... Now that I think about it, it will only be her and me, right?

He was feeling nervous and he was only a few steps from the door, what kind of anime event was this!?, it looked like the typical scene of a girl who invited a girl to declare her love with no one around, but that could not pass, at least that's what he wanted to believe.

I doubt for a few moments but in the end he opened the door to run into Rinne drinking a cup of tea quietly, he closed the door that was behind him ending up attracting the attention of the girl who opened one of her eyes to see her guest.

- You are very punctual for our meeting.

- Manners make man, don't they?

The girl let out a soft laugh at what the boy who was standing in front of her said, he made a certain gesture for her to sit on one of the sofas when she sat down the girl got up from where she was serving him some tea.

- Thank you president.

- No need to Takamiya-kun, and tell me what you want to talk about?

- I really don't know where to start, but I think I have it clearer now ... What exactly is Red Night.

He went straight to the point and the girl knew better than anyone that he wanted to have more information about her brother, since the news he heard did not offer much information. Perhaps hearing from an expert would be the best. After all Rinne was a demon and not just anyone is the daughter of the current demon king Lucifer, the girl could give him whatever information he wanted if he asked her.

- With you going for the cause of everything, where should I start? I'm pretty sure you know, but they are a gang of hit men.

- If I have heard of it, they say that they steal all kinds of those weapons, they are highly dangerous for society.

- And do you know the name of those dangerous weapons?

- Not really...

The boy remained for a few minutes in silence staring at his reflection in the cup of tea that was in his hands, a sudden headache was present in his head, he left the cup of tea on the table that was in front of him simply to put one of his hands on his head.

He had his eyes closed, he did not even look at the face of the girl in front of him, for her part, the young woman just waited for him to calm down a bit, she knew what the headache was due to but she wanted the boy to say it with his own words .

- Da....Dain....Dainsleif?

- Yes, it is her name, known for being one of the hardest and most resistant swords in this world, it is the maximum weapon if we speak about power.

- Sounds like a pretty powerful weapon.

- It is, but like anything in this world it has its consequences.

Rinne took another sip of the tea cup in her hand to put it on the table, she opened her eyes staring at the boy who was sitting in front of her, she did not want to tell him what it really means to carry one of those weapons.

But she more than anyone knows that this boy was not to back down in his decisions, she knew him quite well, Karia stayed a few minutes waiting for the girl to decide whether to talk to him or not, in the end she saw how she let out a sigh of defeat to reveal the truth about those weapons.

- It is true that they give you the power to defeat anyone, they are known as the weapons of calamity whoever wields them automatically becomes a knight of chaos.

- Sounds like a pretty strong title and what ...

- But that power has its consequences, not many people get to have a prosperous life with those weapons.

The two remained in a silence quite uncomfortable for the two of them, despite that neither refused to break the atmosphere they created. Karia stared at the redhead, waiting for her to decide to tell her what was going on with the monologue from before.

For her part, Rinne just waited for the right moment to say those words that hurt from the bottom of her heart to the girl, but she wanted to take the courage to say the following words to them.

- People who wield these weapons in exchange for power offer their lives to obtain that strength.

- It must be a joke ...

The boy was left wide-eyed hearing such a revelation in front of him, they lost their lives, it was so dangerous to use those weapons. On the other hand the girl looked at the terror embodied in the face of the boy who was in front of her, she could not blame him after all for him all this must be very new in her life.

He saw how the boy took a long breath putting a certain serious face to look at the girl who was in front of him, the girl when she saw this knew that he made a decision and that right now he only had to listen to her and respect her.

- Did you make a decision Takamiya-kun?

- If president I have made a decision.

She smiled softly when she knew more or less the answer he would give her, definitely for her this boy did not change anything since she remembered.

- I want to learn how to use a sword! It may be pathetic but I want to get my brother back ... It's the only thing I have in my family for now ... So ... Please!

- I'm glad to see that determination in your eyes ... But from what I've been mentioned I don't think you need it.

Karia was confused by the girl's words, she was about to ask him what he was referring to and before he could do so he saw a rapier appear in his hands and he was heading at an inhuman speed to where he was.

He was expecting the worst with his eyes closed but instead he felt no pain or something similar, he opened his eyes to see how the sword from the previous night appeared in his hands blocking that attack. Rinne simply smiled when he saw the surprised face that the boy had, pulling the sword away from him to make it disappear in front of them.

- How?!....Eh?... I really don't understand anything about these swords.

- From what I hear they are quite stupid and proud they have very few teachers for that very reason, after all they choose their teachers.

- Do they really choose their owners that way?

- Don't make it sound so easy, I said it before but they are foolish and proud weapons that are not usually used by anyone.

Despite having answered that question to the boy, he still did not receive his own dilemma as to how he had stopped the narrow sword of the girl next to him. The two finished with the small talk they had in order to take their things and go to their own houses, the two were on their way to the front door in silence without saying a single word.

Something was telling Karia to ask him a certain question he had in his head, but he didn't have the courage to ask himself after all it was just a guess of his it wasn't like it was really going to happen. They were just a few steps away from leaving the main gate, leaving the academy behind once and for all, he had to do it now or nothing was the only chance he had.

- President, what I'm about to ask you may sound strange.

- Go ahead then, I have no problem with answering another question.

She turned around to look at him again with a radiant smile, for some reason this made the boy's heart begin to beat quickly, a certain image of a girl that he doesn't remember very well came to his mind.

He was relating the smile of the girl in front of him with that of that girl, only for his eyes to widen looking at the girl with red hair, he did not want to think about the impossible but as this world there were many possibilities.

- Rin...

- Eh? What did you just say?

Rinne was surprised to hear how he called her on the other hand, the boy was looking at her seriously, a certain strong breeze passed where they were both making their hair move with the wind.

- Are you Rin right? I don't remember it well ... But I would never forget that smile.

- Do you only remember that?

- Eh? Well me....Hahaha it's all...

She sounded disappointed when she heard that from the boy, she let out a soft laugh when she saw the nervous expression that he had, scratching his head, definitely this boy did not change at all, in these ten years that have passed for both adolescents.

He dropped his study bag to the ground before running to where Karia was standing, he ended up throwing himself on him while giving him a strong hug, luckily for the boy this was something strong because if not both of them would have fallen to the floor.

- Rinne we could fall you know?

- What does it matter, it's fine as we are.

- I-I'm serious this is i-uncomfortable already.

He was saying it mostly due to the fact that the girl's chest was colliding with the boy's uniform, and to the boy's bad luck she had no intention of letting go of that hug, she even enjoyed it in her own way, bothering the boy. .

They both stopped what they were doing to go to their respective houses, now something that did not fit the boy was that the red-haired girl was following the same path as him, he was curious to ask her if she really lived near him but decided to let her be and continue with his way.

Finishing arriving at her, she decided to open the door only to find herself in the middle of what appeared to be a blonde girl with long ears with a frown directed at a purple-eyed albino who was looking at her with the same gaze.

- I'm..... back?

- I already told you that you will not sleep with Takamiya Karia.

- And who are you to give me orders?

Karia was quite confused looking at how these two just glared at each other without noticing that the boy arrived home, for his part, on one of the shelves near where the two girls were, his pet cat was watching the fight. with a certain nervous face.

- Blair ... Could you explain what happens?

- Why don't you just listen to it yourself ...

She blinked several times before looking in the direction in which the cat's tail was pointing, she passed by both girls who were still in their own fight without noticing the presence of the boy who took advantage of this to go to the phone.

Once he was in front of the house phone, he brought it to his ear listening to some voices talking about something, among the voices he managed to distinguish the voice of his legal guardian who seemed to laugh with a bit of bitterness.

- Jin-san? Is there?

- Hello brat ... How are you?

- Well, I guess ... That's not what you're asking! What's going on here? Why are these two girls in my house?

He could hear how the middle-aged man laughed nervously, the boy knew that laugh quite well and that laugh always brought problems to the boy.

- Things got a bit complicated around here, from now on you will be living with those three beauties plus other girls who are on the way.

- What! What are you talking about!? I'm a seventeen year old boy you know?!

Before he could continue protesting with the older man, he heard him cut the call abruptly, this only left the boy frozen where he was while he still held the phone in one of his hands.

He stayed leaning on the shelf with a depressive aura, the same thing always happened with that man he does not even know who the hell put him as his and his brother's tutor, Karia could not have a day as worse as the world today was against him.

- Ria-chan are you okay?

- I'm not okay...Not okay at all

The cat approached the boy to see how he was on the other hand the boy was depressed even with his face glued to the shelf. On the other hand Rinne entered the house once and for all, drawing the attention of the blonde and the albino who stopped glaring at each other to focus their gazes on the newcomer.

- Rina.... Hikari-san...

- Yes my Lady.

- Hmp!

Sides parted from each other in a polite way when listening to the redhead, for her part she could only look at the black-haired boy who was being consoled by his familiar cat, the three girls looked at each other forming a little tension somehow.

The tension was so strong that it was noticeable how far this was about, Karia who was with her face glued to the shelf put her depression aside to look at the dark aura that surrounded these three girls, somehow she realized that he mustn't get into this.

- Could you say what is that about sleeping with the Hikari-san~?

- Haha just like you heard Rinne-chan~.

- Otome Hikari-san could you stop addressing my lady~.

That dark aura from before had increased even more after that "cute" conversation of the three girls, it took a few hours for each other to finish saying where Hikari would be sleeping, as they only had two rooms available, leaving aside Karia's.

In the end they ended up letting the albino sleep with the boy because they had no more rooms but on the condition that she respected the boy's space. After everyone finished settling in, the boy decided to settle into his room by sitting on his bed, even though the reality was different, he was quite uncomfortable right now and it was due to the fact that the albino was only wearing a nightgown.

- You need to ... Sleep with that?

- You want to see?

- Not by God of course not!

He covered his face when he saw how the girl was threatening to take off the shirt she was wearing, for his part he only gave her so he would not have to look at her covering herself with the sheets.

- Good evening!

- Good evening sir, I am a saint ...

- Do not tell me so! Besides that I know you were the one who wanted to show yourself!

- Don't change the subject, closet pervert.

The two said goodbye while they lay on their respective beds, unlike the girl who took a little longer to fall asleep, Karia had fallen asleep faster than normal even at the sight of the girl who was looking in her direction was very fast when falling asleep.

Everything was black there is nothing and no one where he was he could only remember that black scene ten years ago, but this was very different from how he saw it ten years ago. He opened his eyes suddenly looking around there is nothing but him and a ... Sword? It was the sword that always appeared saving his life.

- What are you doing here…

- It's been a while dear master

- But what?!

Some black smoke surrounded the place where he was, covered his face as he watched as a little boy appeared from the fog wearing a somewhat strange wardrobe, that boy looked at Karia smiling who was surprised who he really was.

- Who you are?

- I am your Dainsleif, my name is Ashura.

- Ashura? It sounds very long, it sounds better if I tell you Shu-chan.

- Hahaha.

The sword laughed loudly when he heard how he called him, it really seemed very funny to the little boy to hear that name that he had not heard in years, he stopped laughing to observe how the boy looked at him confused.

- Sorry, I haven't heard that name in a long time.

- Did someone else call you that?

- Yes...It was a long time ago... You remind me a little of him

Ashura closed his eyes for a moment remembering a certain fragment of his past, a poor boy who wanted power to simply change the world, perhaps he could be calm now that he saw how the world is.

- That person must have mattered a lot to you.

- Maybe you're right, but that's not the important thing right now ... You want to be able, don't you?

-…..

He was silent for a few moments, he simply wanted to live a calm and serene school life with his brother, but after seeing that the world was not what it seemed, he only had to be selfish with himself for once in his life.

Ashura smiled knowing the answer the boy would give him right now so he simply extended in a way to help him get up from where he was sitting.

- Sign this contract with me and I will give you the power to become the king of all.

- I want power, it's true .. But it's not to destroy, if I want to change this world, I'll do it my way and no one will stand in my way.

- This is how you speak master.

Karia took Ashura's hand while certain black and reddish marks began to spread throughout his body, he felt dizzy and tired so much was that fatigue that he could barely see where they were.

Karia took Ashura's hand while certain black and reddish marks began to spread throughout his body, he felt dizzy and tired so much was that fatigue that he could barely see where they were.

She raised her face to look at where she was behind that little boy, there were other shadows each one holding a different weapon, a scythe, gloves, pistols, twin swords, a bow, a hammer, a spear among other weapons.

- It will be a pleasure to work with you master.

- What is this!? ... It hurts!

- I want you to show us that you can change this world like he did.

I ended up falling into a deep sleep again to finish waking up in reality, but right now I was so like I didn't want to get up, the pillow was more comfortable than usual.

Rather, something was wrong, something did not fit with this comfort that he was feeling just now, he woke up suddenly only to see himself hugging the purple-eyed albino girl around the waist who simply saw the innocent face of the boy who was still lying on his shoulders. breasts.

- You look very comfortable there, don't you?

- HAHAHA .... It's not what it seems ...

- Takamiya-kun and Otome-san it's time to .....

Without both of them noticing, Rina entered the room without touching the position they were both in well, this only made a vein come out from behind the girl's head ready to hit the albino.

The four of them were walking through the corridors of the school having both the blonde and the white-haired man disgusted to be close to each other. Behind them came Karia who had a certain mark of a hand on her face, and of the three he was the one who attracted the most attention so much that the other students even began to gossip.

- Wow, don't tell me that boy is cheating on Eucliffe-senpai with the new girl.

- I don't know, but those two seem to have a history.

- How despicable.

- It's the worst.

They continued walking until they said goodbye to Rina leaving Hikari and Karia alone although they did not want to say a single word to each other, once they were near the door of their living room the boy opened it with a "good morning" and clearly did not receive a response from no one.

He ignored the looks of others on him before seeing how some male students from his classroom approached him to ask a few questions.

- Hey Karia, is it true that you are living with Otome-san?

- Wow Takamiya look at what to get the new girl with just a couple of days.

- Huh?! How the hell do you two know that?!

- But it's not the truth?

- Hikari-san!

The whole classroom began to fill with bad comments for the boy thanks to the albino who could simply cover her mouth innocently.

- I think they are wrong is...

- Takamiya !! You are seriously a traitor as you can be living with a girl as sexy as Otome-chan.

- S-Shinsou... Stop moving...

Shinsou arrived at the classroom quickly taking the boy by the neck shaking him from one side to the other, on the other hand the other students saw this with grace because they knew very well the bad luck that the blond had with women.

- As always Shin-kun and Karia-kun get along well.

- If you call that getting along, you have a very bad sense of sight Shirou.

Musashi stared at the brunette while the blonde kept fighting from time to time with his black-haired friend, for his part the albino only went to his seat which was behind the black-haired boy who had not yet freed himself from his blonde friend.

- Shinsou I mean it, let me go!

- Seriously man you are a traitor of the greats! I won't forgive you Takamiya!

- Listen to me once and for all! Life seriously hates me!
