Chapter 13 - Chapter 12: Dark Hell (7).

Kris enquired. "You Demons sick me, you know that?"

"Huh?" Inquired one of the twin. He had white hair with hint of blue. He wore a black coat that was unbuckled, making it look like a cape and he wore a black shirt with black pants. The shoes he wore white without a back.

"You're the one to talk," immediately said the other one. Like his brother, he had white hair but with a hint of black. He wore a plain white shirt and a black pants with black shoes without a back.

"Aren't you the one that killed here?" Together they said.

"True," said Kris.

[You have extracted x1 Gun]

"But you are her family, so you should be bailing your eyes in grief and pain dramatically," said Kris while pointed the gun at the two twins. "What are you two? Do you have cold hearts or something? No wonder you two have pale skin when every one else has red."

"..." The two twins stayed silent briefly.

"What did you stay?" The two twins said in sync malicious and serious tone.

Suddenly the atmosphere of the entire hallway changed from just being silent to eerie. The whole room was intense.

"(What are dramatic change in atmosphere.)" Kris said sarcastically.

The two Demon's began to approach Kris with a threatening glare in their eyes.

The twin on the right then simply said with a sigh, "*Sigh* Let's just hurry up and kill him. You that if we eat other species we get stronger right?"

"Yeah," immediately said the twin on the left. "At least Mom will stop calling us weak."

"(Damn! What a fucked up family.)"

[Warning: Paralyzed Touch has been activated!]

"Huh?" Kris immediately inquired.

The boy on the left hand started to glow purple with energy. He charged at Kris with his hand upwards, ready grab his opponents face.

Observing his opponent, Kris the said internally, "(Hmm, ill? This thing has some strong stats for an ill Demon.)"

"(But why am I complaining? I can easily take this guy!)"

The Demon had already closed the distance between him and his opponent.

"(Just like how I'm about to dodge this attack!)"

Kris presumed his stance, ready to dodge but he couldn't move. Something was holding and preventing him from doing so.

"(The only thing this thing has going for is it is its extremely high Dexterity and high Intelligence.)"

"What?!" Kris inquired abruptly.

He turned around to see the other Demon twin holding him in place with his hands.

"(This thing put everything in its physical stats, but probably left its Intelligence and Vitality!)"

"Wherever! I.." Kris then abruptly interrupted.

He felt his face get slapped by a cool object. Maybe a hand.

His entire body then began to shut down.

"What.. the.. hell?" He inquired sleepily.

"Simply," said the Demon with fully white hair with a lifeless voice. "You're being paralyzed. I think you should feel like you what to take a long nap. Feeling weak right now?"

"Weak?" Kris inquired while gritting his teeth. "I'm not.. weeaak..."

He suddenly fell to the floor, completely knocked out.

"This should be painless for you," said the sorcerer Demon.

"..."

It was entirely dark. Nothing but a void could be seen.

"Huh?" Kris inquired to himself in the darkness. "I should be seeing that 'you have died' notification pop up any second now."

In the void, he was completely alone.

Looking around, Kris said, "Like always.."

In the far distance, he saw a blue light. It was the only thing that lit the dark and empty void. It was almost bright enough to blind Kris entirely, making him cover his eyes partly.

Kris enquired immediately. "What the hell is that?!"

Despite being not being sure what the light was, he was strangely drawn to it.

He lift down his hand and started following the strange light.

What he saw in distance was something he saw before. It was what triggered something inside of him and sent him on a path for power. His parents were standing right in front of him once again.

The two adults were covered in a bright and divine blue light. It was beautiful and dreamy at the same time, captivating Kris's eyes.

"What is this?" Kris inquired. "No."

"Who are you two?"

Kris inquired while pointing at the two individuals.

"What do mean, son? We are your parents, silly boy!" First said the father.

"Huh?" Kris inquired once again in deep surprise. "(Isn't that how he always talked to me, when he was alive?)"

His mother, with a stren look, said with a serious voice, "I don't understand the question you are asking?"

"(That's how my mom talked to me as well! With stern and serious face!)"

"What the fuck?"

Kris was suddenly smacked on the head by his mother. She had bright purple hair, deep ocean blue eyes and serious face. She was quite beautiful and young to say the least.

"When did you start to curse!?"

His mom grabbed him by the collar and dragged him up to her face and said, "Is that how I raised you, you little brat?!"

"Did you teach him this?" The mother inquired while looking at the father.

"O-of course not!" I'm answered the father with his hands raised protectively. "You shouldn't handle him so roughly, you know? Look, you even made him cry."

His father looked like a man in his thirty's to forty's. He had common black hair and eyes, with a quite bushy beard.

Kris was indeed crying. Not because of how rough his mother was dealing with him, but because of a pain in his heart.

"*Snob*"

A pain that he never had felt before.

"What's wrong with you!?" Inquired his mother while she screamed in his face.

A pain that his heart felt when he was reunited with his family.

"(Dad was always like this. Always protective of me and always telling me to do things I see fit.)"

"(While mom always wanted the best possible outcome for my future. That's why she was always so stern me and wanted me to increase my sense of combat and intelligence.)"

"(As a kid, I was most time upset with my parents. My father acting as a wimp and my mom who was always over my damn neck.)"

"Hey! Didn't I just asked you a question?" His mother inquired and exclaimed.

"(But right now.. I'm just happy to see them, even if they're not real.)"

Kris finally answered his mother's inquiry. "It's not. Just under the weather is all."

"It better be," said his mother seriously.

A pat was suddenly felt on his head.

"Whatever."

It was his dad.

"What we wanted to tell is.."

Kris suddenly blinked.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he was hit was hit with a sudden surge of fear and loneliness.

"Wake the fuck up, you bitch!"

His father was suddenly deformed. Same with his mother.

They were like shadows with a white outline surrounding them. Their eyes as big as a basketball was hollow with a pure but no good white mist inside.

Tears flowed Kris's face, as he was heartbroken.

".. You bastard.."

"..."

Kris was then sent back to reality. In Dark Hell.

He was being carried by Prince that was ranked to be a Knight while the sorcerer lead the way.

"Are you sure he isn't going to wake up, brother?" The Knight said lifelessly.

"Of course he wouldn't. It'll take him a day too," said the sorcerer.

"... Are you sure, you fucker?"

"Huh?" The prince suddenly turned around to see how had spoken.

It was definitely his brother and no else except the Kris was there. So...

"Ahh.." said the Demon weakly.

It most have been the first time the Demon had shown emotions of fear, sadness and guilt.

"Damn. Was your brother that important to you?"

[Intelligence: 10,000 -> 15,000]

The Knight's body was on the ground, gusting out pure white blood from his neck.

Kris stood over the dead body while holding his trophy.

The Knights head.

"AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"

The Sorcerer dashed madly at Kris. A divine glow began to engulf his body.

"Sorry.."

[Aura has been activated]

".. But this isn't some anime where I wait for some guy to go super."

Kris placed his hand inside his saya. His hand was then engulfed in the Mana.

[Weapon Body Refinement has been activated]

Then in a golden aura.

Presuming his stance, he sinked his hand deeper inside and poured more Mana inside the saya.

"Die!"

Raising his hand vertically, he slashed the Demon in half.

Tears fell Kris's eyes as he said, "Die you bastard.."
