Chapter 27 - Your Demons

"Senpai, how did you!?"

"Well, it's actually easier than you think."

Locked in room measuring 100m² with no any familiar possession can be found. A small lamp light hanging above his head serving as a small spotlight for his death throne was illuminating the rest of the four wall cage before the occurrence of the shining light brought by four huge bulbs placed in every corners of the room.

An unsettling aura emitted by his crafted throne gave off a slight push for his epic pose when it's time to face the girls.

"Right at this moment, I felt like as if my mind have gone far to throw the tables but at least it gave me one more chance again, huh? I mean more like three more chances." In his own inner monologue, he explained how much preparations it took to set that supposedly epic stance of him, what the f*ck! Does eigth grade syndrome have gone through his head?

"The handcuffs was imported from overseas and is made with titanium metal. It's is impossible for a mere man to break such thing. How did you even also brought along the locks from your legs?" The older sister is doubting his abilities while not acknowledging the fact that there's a key that have been stolen from them.

"Of course, who do you think I am? It's far more easier to unlock the cuffs first than to do those pain in the ass things, right?"

"How could you!", Kurumi fumbled in response. It's still not clear to her how he managed to get off the chair.

"I'm not here to explain my incredible breakthrough," he uttered with a poise. "My reason to not sweep out is that there's still this dangling question that keeps bugging in my head."

Although he's being cautious in his every actions and maintained a laid back expression during decisions, the most annoying about him is that despite how much turmoil he have gone in his mind, it's always that he trust it with all his heart. He cannot let something go away not being resolved by his own intuitions.

"Senpai, what are you talking about? Aren't this things enough for you, you can have two wives in a flash that will take care of you in all of eternity." With a hot curry rice on plate in her hands, she uttered those words like an airhead who cannot read the room.

"Hold that curry there," Toby suddenly uttered.

"What?", the older sister cannot gist on what actually happening in his head.

"It's a waste if I won't eat that, it will be a mockery to God's provision," now he's like a priest on a sermon.

"I still don't get it, why do you still want to go out in that cruel world if you could just settle down here and have a pleasant life, Master Kiriyama. We will give you everything you want so please abhor your what you will do and stay with us."

I too cannot get it why they really are that attached to Toby that pushed them to commit those things. Probably we'll be revealed with a backstory or something.

"As the narrator have been yapping for a long time, let me ask you two a question," he says while pointing his index finger to the girls, how does he know who I am!

"Why did you go to such extent of kidnapping me and straight away tortured my brain, what is the reason that you have fallen to me? Or more like what do you want from me?" Actually, those things aren't connected at all.

Or let's say that he sees the reason why the twins declare that they love him is that because he thought they want something in return.

He only see himself as a mere means for the girls to get something as an end. This distorted vision of him impedes his ability to clearly give himself to others.

"What do we want from you? Of course it is you and you only, Senpai," Shirumi says defending her grand cause of unconditional love.

"Aren't that a bit clichéd now? How foolish it is to believe in something like unconditional love that you are not here to just fulfill your worldly pleasures in exchange for making me like a vegetable."

He has unquenchable belief for his own intellect that he still hold firm with that same idealogy for almost his life.

"But, Senpai... What you're saying is not true!", now Shirumi is fighting back to prove her stand.

"Ahhh hhaa... This is pain in the ass to argue with. It even took me 3 loops just for this, but looks like this is going to nowhere. *sigh... I'm taking my leave."

Bringing down his hands and used it to assist his butt to stand up after proclaiming his farewell is also one of the top things he wants to perform since his childhood.

"What are they gonna do next? I'm sure have provoked them and challenged their ideals, that means there's no way for me to leave freely in here," he says to himself while raising his guard in case it will resort to a certain violence he pass through the doorway.

He started to walk towards the hard path by directly approaching the psychopathic twins without any weapon in hand. Of course he does since passing way to the impenetrable walls of death back to life is more terrifying than this, of course he have done that many times now. How much does one life cost if he could just 'reset' it all again to meet his desirable outcome, once again this is one of his broken ordeals and not considering when will be his last.

"Senpai, please wait!"

"If you have nothing to do now, then accept your defeat. Come to me at once if you two will."

He walks forward passing through the twin's without them being able to do anything to stop him, well of course they could just shut him off.

"Please forgive me, Senpai," Shirumi uttered while slowly pulling out something thin and long from her pocket. A stainless blade that should be sufficient enough to cut through lean meat and flesh.

"You know, Senpai, how idiot can you be." She pulled out the knife unsheathing if from its cover, her killing intent is lingering in any given moment.

"Huh?" He's turning a blind eye to the girl's remorse, 3 loops is enough for him to experience the fight against Shirumi out of his 35 tries.

*thud

"Shut it up, Shirumi!", suddenly the white haired girl stomp the cold floor with her right foot to stop in advance what will go out between the two.

"Huh? Why Nee-san?"

"Hooo... This is going to be interesting," he fumbled.

"..." Kurumi kept her silence after that sudden burst out, probably she's setting up the mood.

"It's been 1 minute since, are you not going to say anything? If that's that, I'm leaving," he uttered while repeating the words the twins said to him before.

"Wait, Master Kiriyama!" Kurumi holds out her hands and stretched it to hold Toby's arm.

She holds firm that he cannot move his wrist, "Shit! What's her deal," he said to himself.

Kurumi opens her mouth and uttered, "You wanna know the reason for this, right?"

"Huh?"

"2 years ago, you were there, for me and then..."

Kurumi uttered this words but too bad we cannot hear it.

"Kurumi, do you mean..." He starts to recall those things in the past.

"Haaaah... How useless you are, Kurumi Mihara," a voice suddenly sounded out of nowhere which instantly creeps in to Toby's ears.

"What is that?"

He then looks to the direction where it came from, the lamenting Kurumi is there so then there's only one to be seen.

"Shirumi!"

The black haired girl is alone standing to the side far from the two with her long red branch dark horn like those of the demon grown out of her head. A menacing look from her brazen eyes laid upon the guy.

"What a pleasing encounter it is, Toby Kiriyama, the defect."
