Reverse Reality

One-shot

Japan, Tokyo City, Chiba Prefecture.

"We found the lair of the Devil Demon."

A beautiful elf woman with golden hair and blue eyes gave this information to the group of women in her office who were listening intently.

[Alpha, Shadow Garden Leader]

"I have... what to go... with you..."

Another beautiful brown-haired, purple-eyed elf with sleepy eyes replied to her leader.

[Eta, Eighth Member of Shadow Garden]

"… This time it won't be necessary; we'll go with another group to hunt it down. So, you can rest, Eta."

Eta was happy and decided to return to her lair to continue sleeping or maybe do more experimentation.

"Another group, Alpha-sama?" The silver-haired, blue-eyed elf looked at her leader in confusion.

"Beta, go report to Yukime. She will help us with this."

[Beta, Third Member of Shadow Garden]

"Got it, Alpha-sama." She bowed and instantly disappeared.

"Delta." A black-haired, purple-eyed girl with canine-eared limbs and tail was visualized in her.

"Yes nanodesu!"

[Delta, Fifth Member of Shadow Garden]

"I'll take care of bringing Akane-san."

"There I go nanodesu!"

Crash!

Delta climbed out the window, destroying it in the process.

"This..." Alpha brought her hand to her forehead. "Zeta, you can go get Elisabeth-san."

"Yes." A golden-haired, purple-eyed feline girl quietly disappeared from the room.

[Zeta, Seventh Member of Shadow Garden]

"Gamma..." Alpha called out to an elf with dark blue hair and eyes the same color as her hair. "She's very clumsy..." Alpha thought to herself. "Have you already figured out what happened 1 year ago?"

"I didn't find any information that would serve Alpha-sama." Gamma denied.

[Gamma, Fourth Member of Shadow Garden]

"You found your something, Epsilon." The purple-eyed light blue-haired elf walked to Gamma's side.

[Epsilon, Sixth Member of Shadow Garden]

"That whole place was destroyed without leaving any information of what happened... so I'm sorry, Alpha-sama."

"So, there's nothing about what happened that day..." Alpha rose from her seat. "Okay. Right now, we know where he is, we just need him to answer us with the truth..."

Epsilon and Gamma followed their leader.

Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture.

In Nagoya Castle, which was destroyed. There was a small pond that was cleaned up for someone's benefit.

"Haaah~..." A short-haired black boy with the same eye color as his hair. He was enjoying the pond he had filled with clean water. "The bathroom is life~." I let his body sink a little deeper into the pond relaxing.

"Don't you want to enjoy the pond, Violet?" The boy asked the little girl with black hair and violet eyes.

[Violet, Orphan Girl/?]

"… Okay." She responded shyly as she made her way to the pond, taking off her clothes before entering the pond and sitting down near the boy.

"…" The girl looked at the boy with uncertainty.

"Do you want to ask something?" He quickly realized.

"Is it okay to relax when we were discovered?" Violet asked as you held up her hands that contained water that was dispersing on the sides.

"Don't worry. It was my intention that they found us out, they surely just want to find out the truth from 1 year ago." He ended up stroking Violet's head to make her feel safe. "So don't worry, nothing will happen to you. I will protect you."

A smile appeared on Violet.

"Thank you, Minoru."

[Minoru Kagenou, Former Leader of Shadow Garden]

1 year ago.

The members of Shadow Garden, as well as important friends, were resting in the safest place in Japan after the world began to change drastically.

[Arcadia]

"Someone has seen Minoru-kun." A beautiful black-haired, red-eyed student asked the elves of Shadow Garden.

[Akane Nishino, Knight of Arcadia]

"Boss isn't here!" Delta responded to Akane's question.

"Just in case they know where he is?"

They all shook their heads; they didn't know where their leader was.

Boom!

A loud explosion was heard underground.

"What!"

The earth began to erode until everything [Arcadia] was surrounded by the bright black light.

Minutes before.

Minoru had discovered a hidden passage where he decided to enter out of curiosity and see what he had hidden through the corridors built underground.

"It looks like a top-secret construction where there's a mysterious company doing inhumane experiments."

Minoru commented as he looked at the white corridors that followed several paths, he decided to go straight without wondering about the other paths.

"It's been two years since the world changed. Although thanks to that I'm happy because I finally have what I've always longed for, Magic!"

From his right hand began to emerge a dark energy known as magic. Minoru kept walking until he came to a large iron gate that allowed him to continue advancing.

"… Surely there are people on the other side, I can't destroy the door to alert them..." He brought his hands to the door to see if pushing it gently would be the right thing to do. "It's secured, so that way I can't open it."

On the ground he tapped his shoes with a few feet.

"I think this may be the solution. If I punch a hole in the wall, they'll notice."

With a small swipe of his shoe a hole was created. He jumped into the hole and continued to use his magic to pierce the earth.

He brought his hands above his head to touch the ground. Using his magic to discover a place to enter underground, he quickly discovered a warehouse several meters away.

He continued drilling into the earth to the indicated spot in the warehouse where he ended up drilling upwards with utmost care without alerting anyone.

He jumped to the warehouse and with his magic closed the hole drilled.

"It's time to find out what they hide this place."

Using his magic to hide himself, he left the warehouse where he saw several people wearing dressing gowns, where in their hands they were carrying clipboards. I quickly glance at the information on the clipboards of each of them to at least know what they were doing.

Arriving at information of great interest.

"So an experiment using a girl who is special..."

He kept looking for information of where the girl could be found, where he decided instead to use his magic to easily find the location of where she was being held.

Passing through another corridor where several adults passed that path until they reached a door where they all entered. Minoru also entered since the girl's location is in that place.

Advancing up the ceiling where he used his magic to manage to walk up the walls. He looked straight ahead where the girl was in the papers he had read.

"So, it's that little girl named as 'Aurora, Demon Devils' on the leaves."

Minoru put his fingers on his chin thoughtfully.

"I don't see anything demon about that little girl. But it has incredible hidden power..."

Minoru approached the room, which was secluded with glass walls as if it were a zoo animal.

"Do you hear me?" I bend his body to whisper to him.

"Yes, I even saw you enter the room."

Minoru's eyes were subtly opened by what the girl said.

"Heh. So, you have amazing skills." Brute power was one thing, but the other abilities always caught my attention. "Tell me girl, you want to leave this place."

The girl looked back at the floor.

"No, I've been in this place for 2 years now. I have no one or a place to go back to."

"So, you don't have a family." A girl who depends on someone... "If so, you want to be my family."

Minoru's right hand pierced the glass to reach the other side.

The girl was confused by this but stared at her right hand.

"I don't have anyone, but I also don't deserve to be helped by anyone... But this guy is strange." The girl thought. "You must know that I am a monster. So why do you want to help me?"

Minoru just smiled at that answer. "That matters." I look intently at the girl. "I guess that answer won't calm you down. Although I don't really care if you're a monster, I only do what I like, and it catches my attention. Since you are, I don't mind being your family from now on, even if humanity repudiates you and seeks to murder you in the future."

The girl's eyes hesitated. "But... That will affect even your family, it will be sought out and hunted like witches as revenge for saving me from this place."

"Then no one should know of the existence of this place as well as that you are an experiment of this place."

"Huh?" Minoru's answer surprised the girl.

"Don't worry, just release your latent power. From now on we will be family and I will protect you from any danger."

"Yes!"

[Aurora, Demon Devils]

She obeyed Minoru's words where he let his power be unleashed like a bomb that came to surround the entire terrain of [Arcadia] destroying it and killing many people where few survived.

Minoru, seeing how the place turned out, decided to leave, and abandoning the friends he made after the fall of the world.

"Then let's go, Violet."

The girl formerly named Aurora followed Minoru with the new name that was given to her along with the boy's surname.

"Thank you." A tender smile appeared on Violet.

[Violet Kagenou, Family of Minoru Kagenou]

"You don't need to thank me, we're family now and you're my priority."

Minoru and Violet disappeared.

Current weather.

Minoru sighed. "They took their time."

Several women arrived at Nagoya Castle where Minoru and Violet were eating at this very moment.

Shadow Garden (minus Eta), Akane Nishino, Yukime, Elisabeth, Mary (faithfully following her mistress Elisabeth).

They were all standing at the destroyed entrance to the castle looking at Minoru.

"It's really a surprise that they survived the explosion I caused."

Minoru replied, concealing a half-truth.

"I guess they're coming for revenge, aren't they?"

After all, people important to them also died that day.

"What should we call you, Former Shadow Garden Leader or Demon Devils?"

The beautiful mature woman with white hair, blue eyes, and fox-like limbs spoke.

[Yukime, Osaka Monarch]

"I'm surprised you decided to come with them Yukime, you're the only one who was anywhere near this location. So, you decided to work as a group."

Minoru brought the grilled fish to his mouth without worrying about the situation. Violet watched but hid her concern inside.

"Then what shall we do, talk or fight."

Minoru had finished eating next to Violet as they stood up together looking at the group of women.

Note:

They discovered only the "Devil Demon" but discovered no more. And because they said to call Minoru as Demon Devils, it's because the color of Violet and Minoru's magic is the same, unless now Violet decides to use her magic, they can easily realize the truth.

But Minoru won't allow Violet to use her magic, so Minoru will fight only if they start the fight.

Important note:

It's a one-shot, I'm not going to make history. Although I had thought about it honestly, but for personal reasons I stopped writing.

I brought this up because I had it in mind along with "Changing the Past [Prototype]", so before I stop writing I wanted to get this idea out for you to read.

If anyone was interested in this idea, they can gladly take it. Surely there are better writers than I can, who can improve this story to something better than what I present.

And by the way, Claire Kagenou didn't bring her into the story out of laziness, to be honest.

If I remember correctly, Minoru Kagenou's family is abroad, so they can include that and have Claire Kagenou come to Japan in the future. As the world is destroyed and surely with sea monster animals, she would have to travel in a boat that is fast and killing the sea monsters to get to Japan, failing in the attempt to keep trying to get to her brother (or they can do it cousins, as the saying goes "he gets close to the cousin" I don't know who said it, but I heard it from someone xd).

Well, I've already left my idea of how to introduce Claire, now I'm leaving.

Sayonara~.
