Chapter 31 - Chapter 31: I have figured it out; the system is whack.

"I will like to join this guild and assist in making this guild the best it can be. So if there is any test, I will want to start it right now, for I have no time to waste." I demanded with confidence in my voice.

"Hmmmm I see, wanting to get straight to the point… I admire that… but there is no need for that." He said, shocking everyone in the room, as ruk had marched forward.

"Master, it can't be, you need to test hi to see if he is well capable." Ruk suggested to him but the master had turned his head sideways.

"There will be no need for that ruk… just him putting me in a dead spot is just enough….. so it will be foolish not to." He stood up from his seat and had walked towards me, placing his right hand on my right chest area, as an ominous glow had started to emerge.

"I asura, guardian of the sun, pray to you lady amaterasus, that you shall place your mark on your new son, giving him the will of fire! Raise once more… kami." He removed his palm, reviving the sun symbol I saw on the door. As he smiled at me and so did everyone else.

Iris p.o.v:

I was resting my back on my bed, staring at my hands; as I was projecting electricity out of then. But then I started to stare really deeply at them; as I had sat up properly to investigate them more accurately. The electricity had start spark but then the sound would come later… strange.

'Hmmmm interesting, the sound of the spark are getting delayed… but how?' I wondered, but then I started to remember when I was at the training ground… the tree.

"What if i." I started to reduce the spark as small as possible, until the sparks had started to change its speed but then before I knew it; the spark had busted out of my palm and had started to make its way to a nearby fresh watermelon, which I had gotten from the farm; as it made contact to with the melon, something unexpected had happened.

'Huh, the watermelon was able to absorb it… course, the water in it, had absorbed it… but why didn't it blew up. Heck, even that small spark had the destructive power; of a low energize lightening… but how come?' I made my way to the melon, as I had picked it up, observing it very closely.

"Hmmm even with the lightening gone I can still feel the power…" I brought the watermelon up to my forehead, as I could now feel it… I could hear it from within the melon. The roar that was behind the spark… in a way, it kinda of reminds me of.

"Thunder…" as I said that word, the watermelon had started to turn golden as I could see sparks flying of it, like as if it was going to.

Booooooom!

The melon had exploded, as the insides where all over my room, and not to mention that it was also on me too. But I was not angry or sad about this… in fact I was thrilled and amazed.

'It worked, the blast at the playground had an almost similar effect, as the watermelon… the roar of the lightening… the roar' I smiled and twirled around as I started to charge up another spark in my palm, and had stopped twirling. As I point my hand outside the window, I then shot it at a nearby tree; as the tree was not destroyed for now.

"Of thunder." As I said that, in a flash the tree had started to glow gold but then had exploded, releasing a massive thunder clap; that was able to be heard from a mile away.

'I need to show dant-."

Knock knock

I was hearing knocking from outside my door, but then it had opened, to revive my dad, who had dirt all over his face, with his hair standing up.

"Oh hey dad hehehe bad weather we're having huh. Hehehehehehe." I nervously laughed, as my dad just stood there with an angry expression on his face.

" at least it wasn't in the house, just clean up yourself and your room. Your uncle has something very important to tell you." My dad had smiled, as he just walked away, and had made his way down stair. I stood there thinking of what he could possibility want to ask me.

"i-I guess dante can wait for a while." I decided on, and had started to clean up my room.

'But what does he want to tell… could it be that important. I guess, I will just have to find out then.'

Dante p.o.v:

Well, it has been about 10 weeks now, and I have really gotten kind of used to this guild by now. As I am now able to get their ranking system, as their ranks ranges from o-rank to s-rank and it seems that the guild has another guild place at the very main capital; which comprises of all the s-ranks and so do other guilds, for the purpose of protecting the higher clans and the royals. Though I feel that the system is not fair, as its too clear to know, that most of the higher ranks are filled with other races, all except humans, and I know for a fact; that I have seen some humans that even over shadow some of the higher ranks, people like tamaki, even some higher ranks fear her and so was known to be the queen of the sun. Being able to complete dangerous quest and come back like as if it was nothing… but still was put in b-rank. But let's not forget about hercul, heck the guy might be calm, but the aurora mana in him is making me feel on the edge. Even any nearby creature would run from him. But was still put in the same rank as tamaki, and same goes for the rest, while I'm still put in o-rank, but at least with the money that I have gotten from it; was more than enough to pay off my parents rent. As it was just a normal day in the guild, drinking, fighting and too much noise… as usual.

'I wonder how iris is doing. I hope she is doing fine without me helping her.' I said in solemn and was seated at the bar counter.

'TRUST ME WHEN I SAY THAT SHE IS DOING JUST FINE.' Death had claimed.

'What do you mean?' I asked him on what he meant.

'I MEAN THAT, THERE IS NO REASON TO WORRY OVER HER WHEN SHE IS GETTING STRONGER EVERDAY. EACH TIME I SENSE HER MANA PRESENCE; I START TO FEEL HER POWER GETTING MORE ALIVE AND STRONGER. LIKE AS IF HER MANA IS WAITING…' Death tolled off.

'Waiting for what?' I asked death, being confused by what he had said

'To explode, yeah something like that, even I have noticed it. Every time she trains, even sometimes till the next day… though I won't blame you for not noticing; since most of the time you are drained from your missions and would be out cold when sleeping.' Proteus had informed me, as even death had agreed on this.

'SHE DOES AIM AT BREAKING HER LIMIT… I SEE GREAT POTENTIAL WITHIN THAT GIRL.' Death said as I was in awe by what my sister had been doing ever since I had stopped helping her out.

"Whoa, I'm lost for words." I said why being lost for words but then proteus had called my attention.

'oh and sage, I must say I am very impressed with how fast you were able to adapt and control the copy art, at such short time… you know the art was actually one that son wukung love to use, in fact he was the one, who made it; and it was thanks to that art that he was able to defeat the demon asura army single handedly by making millions of his self. Hahahaha.' Proteus had informed me as I was astonished by this but then a past memory had flashed through my eyes… trinity and rin, as a single tear had spilled out of my eyes.

'Dante is everything okay? Don't need to worry okay iris is fine' proteus had asked me in a somewhat worried tone.

'HIS NOT CRYING BECAUSE OF HER… HIS CRYING BECAUSE OF HIS FORMER WORLD LOVED ONES… THE NUNS' death had informed proteus, as he then understands what he was talking about.

"I will find you."

Flashback:

: "don't worry Tobi, we will help you" huh is that big sis trinity.

: "we will always protect you dante, always." What sister rin is here to.

: "we won't let you get hurt again!" they both said in sync as I saw holy aura emit from them as trinity has a blue stream of energy emitting from her as rin own was flames then suddenly a magical circle appeared in front of us.

: "JOINT MAGIC TECHNIQUE: HOLY SANCTURY!" as the magic had neutralized the blast saving all of us from its devastating effect. As both trinity and rin had collapsed on the ground from being too exhausted but I cushioned their fall by holding them both in my arms, as I heard clapping from the executioner who heard a large grin on his face.

End of flashback:

"And I will end you." I said in a distorted tone but then relaxed and had wiped my eyes. As I stood up and had headed towards the quest board, only to see low level quests and had just sighed and ripped off about 12 of them, but then i noticed a large amount of the members had gathered around a certain table. I saw tamaki in an arm wrestling match with a huge man with a bald head and a scare on his left eyes, and had worn basic mercenary attire. He was sweating profusely as he couldn't keep on going; while tamaki, on the other hand, was smiling and was not struggling even once.

"Have you gotten enough, koi? Hahahaha" she laughed at his weakness but was then ready to finish it. As she slammed his hand on the table making it get destroyed in an instance.

"And the winner is… tamaki, the sun queen. Okay pay up you losers." They had bet on both of they, but mostly tamaki. She celebrated, but then her gaze had landed on me, and then she had started to blush, though nobody noticed it… but I did, strange maybe she is not feeling too well. Then Indra had called me to come and give it a try.

"Hey kami! why don't you come play, huh." He tells me as he runs to me.

"I don't know, I'm actually planning on going on some requests." I had informed him but still he had still insisted

"Come on just one quick match. And beside those quest are the low level ones." He tells me with a playful smirk on his face, as he knows that I don't like easy task…. Or maybe.

'Physical art.'

"Kuron!" I cast and had summoned about 12 clones of myself, and had shared the task to every one of them. As they all went off to carry out the missions given to them. I turned to Indra, who looks at me with a 'really' expression on his face.

"What?" I asked him, as he just shakes his head.

"You know that, if you keep on doing that, then they won't be any quest left for us right. just come." He drags me to the table, and then everyone had started to cheer me on.

"My money is on kami."

"Same here!"

"Place your better here." Indra had announced as people started giving him money to bet.

"Good luck kami-kun…" I heard tamaki say with a blush… serious is she okay, as she was a beast before but now is behaving like a princess.

"Yeah. good luck, my moneys on you." I heard sahal say with a bonzo in his hands as usual.

"Don't worry I don't need luck." I told them but then I noticed something, who was my opponent anyways?

"And introducing his opponent, known to be the demi god of the sun guild, the most calm person but most brutal when it comes to battle, the one who, was said to be known as the aurora beast…. The challenger… Hercules!" the announcer had called as I turned to see hercul, seated down, while smiling and staring at me, with his golden eyes. As his aura was flaring, like a raging ocean.

"Good luck, kami." He said, as he placed his arm on the table and like that. A shockwave had blown and shifted some of the tables, shocking people on how much force, he was able to create… by flexing his arm muscles.

"Is it too later to take back my money?-ack, ouch!" sahal had said but was hit on the head tamaki, who glared at him.

'Well this is going to be interesting.' Proteus had mentioned, as death was just laughing at my misfortune.

"Well, I guess there's no going back then… you're on!" I said with determination and with a confident smirk… on my face.

'Let's see who will become victorious… will it be the untamed aurora beast of the sun guild… or the holy shinagami.'
