As the Black Dragon revealed its presence to me. My body went numb and I fell on my knees...
'Wake up Child... You have no time to waste... Purity will soon meet its Corruption.'
My senses returned but I still couldn't move my body. After spending a few minutes trying to get out of this paralysis, I was finally able to move. But suddenly, My chest got tighter and tighter and my heart began beating faster and faster, Then I heard a voice in my mind saying;
'My body... Give it back... It belongs to me... And me only...'
After that everything returned to normal. I went outside to collect myself and sort what was going through my mind. As I was walking someone patted my back. I turned around and saw a beautiful girl. I was so surprised that words refused to come out of my mouth.
Akira: H-Hi do i know you?
Girl: Huh? What do you mean? We see each other everyday. It's me Ciel
Akira: Ciel?!!! You're a girl??!
Ciel: That was rude but yes how can you not know that?
Akira: Don't blame me. You're the one who wears a hat and uses a suit all the time; plus you're the only girl there that manages the Hunter Association.
Ciel: Well... Good point. So where are you going? You seem tired.
Akira: Oh... I just have a lot of stuff on my mind right now.
Ciel: Like what?
Akira: Well...
As I began explaining my chest got tighter again and my heart began beating faster than it did the first time and I fell to my knees.
'My... Body... Give... It... Back...'
My mind turned pitch black as I slowly fell into the void. After a while, I woke up at a random place. I saw Ciel so i quickly asked her,
Akira: What... Happened?? Where am I?
Ciel: I'm sorry you fainted in the middle of our d-date and brought you back into my house.
Akira: Date? What?? I asked you out on a date?! Oh god, this is really awkward.
Ciel(In her mind): Yes he believed it.
Akira( in his mind): Shit my mind is totally blank I don't know what happened...
Ciel: We were about to kiss when you suddenly fainted.
She let out a smirk as I got flustered, began stuttering and spewing random words out of my mouth.
Akira: K-K-Kiss y-y-you?!!!
Ciel: Yep~
I covered my face and a notification from the system pop up
'Hello, Mr. Akira. The Chairman Of Hunters Association Wants To See You'
Akira: So uh Ciel why does the chairman want to see a nobody like me?
Ciel: They wanted to ask you about how you Cleared an A-Rank Portal on your own
Akira: I don't think I can tell them... It's kinda private for now, I can tell you so you can tell them and change some of the information so it would cover up who I really am?
Ciel: Of course sir I'll gladly do it for you.
I told her the whole story about what happened Inside the Portal and how I got inside of it. She was speechless and surprised.
Ciel: This is crazy! I didn't know you were so powerful, I'm sorry for treating you like a normal person.
Akira: Normal person? I am a normal person, treat me like a normal person not a demon king or something.
Ciel: You are an Archdemon what do you want me to do about it? You're basically a Demon Lord at this point.
Akira: I swear... just do something about the chairman and I'll do anything you want. I don't wanna get involved with that remember? i want to keep my anonymity.
Ciel: Anything?~
Akira: Yes anything just deal with them for me
She let out a big smirk and I knew this is was a bad idea. Then a private system message came to me that said
'Meet me behind the Huge building 63 miles east away from where you are there's an S-Ranked portal that needs to be cleared we're gonna split the drops 50/50 if you come inside with us and split it 80/20 if you solo 80 is yours'
I thought about it for a while and it didn't seem to be a bad trade. I momentarily pushed back the questions about their identity since knowing wouldnt changed the situation for the better or worse. If push came to shove, I would just use my abilities to fight or escape the situation. I rushed there as swiftly as I could after saying goodbye to Ciel. I arrived there and saw this huge Orange portal. It was bigger than the A-ranked portal I faced but I wondered how did the Hunter Association did not alert anyone about this instead this anonymous party knew.
I saw a group of men in black sitting in 2 groups of 3. I walked up to them and tried to see if I recognized anyone. I didn't so I told them I was going solo and they agreed. I entered the portal.
