"I should have classes tomorrow and its already late…"
His hands relaxed on the keyboard as he had his gaze glued to the monitor. His cursor hovered over search input box. His fingers glided over the keyboard delicately, and all the letters [HubPorn] were typed into the search box.
He clicked, and instantly a website loaded up before his eyes.
"…"
The young man stared at the website for a while, silent.
A gaming site?
He noticed a lot of ads on [Quests], [Demons] and [Hunting]. Due to his hectic school life, there was little to no time for games anymore so sites like this had grown distant to him.
He had typed an edge too fast, and now he had ended up somewhere else. Not what he had expected.
He turned to the bottle of lube by his mouse, then lowered his gaze to his unzipped trousers. A long silence ensued as he returned his gaze back to the monitor. He sighed, then decided to close all the windows all together — taking it as a sign he should just go to sleep.
He was a teacher now, and should lead a good example for his students. Coming early was one of the prerequisites of a good teacher, and he had to follow it: unless he wanted to lose his building reputation this early into his career!
But, as his cursor was dragged to the [Close This Tab] button. His windows opened with a loud bang, and he turned in the direction in confusion. There was a heavy wind outside, and it seemed a lot of rain was coming. He could care less so he returned to closing the tab he had opened.
⦗Hello, Anonymous Guest.⦘
⦗Do you want to register an account with the "Spatial Link System"?⦘
⦗Yes⦘ ⦗No⦘
Of course not!
He clicked on ⦗No⦘, then quickly closed the tab. Before anything weird could happen, he powered off his computer system and stood to his feet. He turned around and trotted to his bed, the neatness of his room would interest any visitor. Until they noticed the mess of books and notes by the corner.
As he landed on his bed, he struggled to sleep.
The wind kept making weird noises, and he kept thinking back to how his late night schedule was postponed today. Alas, he was no longer a student and he had deadlines to meet. If none were met, a space on the streets could be rented for free. He had bills to pay: and they were a whole lot.
While he thought on to how much of a mess his life would be if he did not set his priorities right, he slowly dozed off. He took comfort in the dark and coldness of the night, sleeping through the rain and waking up the next morning.
He stood up mechanically, walked into the bathroom and began to prepare for work. After a few minutes getting himself dressed, he returned to his computer and powered it on.
He decided to grab a few notes from the school's library before heading off, but he frowned at the notification he saw.
⦗Urgent Quest!⦘
Out of curiosity, he clicked on it only for him to be redirected back to the cursed website. As the contents of the quest expanded, his frown grew as his annoyed expression turned confused. He had not expected to see this, and wondered what sort of joke it must be.
⦃ Quest Details ⦄
⦃ Information ⦄ ֎ ⦃ Strange sightings at a nearby learning facility. The threat levels is low for now, but sources deduce the situation may change. ⦄
⦃ Location ⦄ ֎ ⦃ Falling Hex Academy. ⦄
The academy they mentioned… surprisingly it was where he worked. Are some students thinking up a dumb prank to pull during school hours?
He had more than a few classes to take today, and had no time to deal with these children's game. He sighed internally then closed the window.
After some time, he opened the school website and began to read through the notes needed. The process took only a few minutes, and he stood to his feet and picked up his bag which he had kept at the side of the desk.
He wore the bag calmly, turned to the mirror and adjusted his clothes calmly.
He shut the windows, powered off his computer, turned off the lights and pocketed his phone. He had a long day ahead of him today, and had little time for play. He walked down the stairs, observed all to make sure they were in order and shut the door to his house behind him, calm and reserved.
His name was Samuel Anderson, and he was just a regular Teacher in a regular school in the regular human world. As Samuel straightened his tie and adjusted his collar he walked to the gates, pushed them opened, stepped out and locked them behind him. Turning to the city.
The bustling mess was no longer unusual as it were once upon a time.
He moved forward, greeting familiar faces as he walked to the bus stop. After some time, he joined others in stepping into the bus. As it drove away, Samuel relaxed himself and stared out through the window. Once upon a time, he was not just a human teacher.
As the young man next to him sang along to whatever playlist he was listening to, Samuel felt his brows knit tightly. He was the greatest and mightiest, purest and most revered Demon Lord! Once upon a time, heroes and gods joined hands to stop him — and the world burned.
Well, all that ended when he finally won the battles between heaven and earth. Now, there were no heroes or heroines trying their hardest to kill him. There were no gods or goddesses with dumb speeches trying to bring peace to all worlds. He was just as happy as he could be.
Suddenly, he began to feel strange.
"Hey. Can you stop singing please?" Samuel turned to the closest passenger, and as they paused his 'strange feeling' transformed into a sense of foreboding. At the speed invisible to the human eyes, he reached out his arm and bowed the head of the young man beside him.
At that instant, the world around them flipped.
Their vehicle was hurled into the sky, sent into a spinning mess as the passengers within were thrashed within. The vehicle crashed to the ground, bouncing and spinning for seconds before coming to a halt. It relaxed upside down, and blood flowed.
Samuel took deep cold breaths, the young man close to him remained safe with his head bowed and shielded behind Samuel's arm.
"Shit…"
There were a few other things he forget to reveal.
