Master knew the reason behind this and since he did, he instantly called for the Council of 24 – The group whose members were renowned in their glory days, but time made them give orders from taking.
The dark room glowed as the spiritual manifestations of the members of the council appeared.
After all of them appeared, master without wasting a second announced, "Our fabled and iniquitous Devil Lord is arriving soon, he is coming to conquer the world, his army started to re-engrave the fear which took years to be removed from the soul of the universe. According to the prophecy he will return and will grow stronger than he ever was and to top it all we are not yet prepared for him."
Not even one member of the council could tell what exactly they were feeling, they had a grin on their face showing how grateful they were to be born in this era, to be able to take on the strongest creature in the history of entire universe.
But their eyes reflected their fear, they had only heard stories about him, never in their lives the faced a threat of this level, their loss will be the main ingredient for the calamity which the universe will face.
"Don't worry, I am here only to solve this problem. I will prepare the front lines and you all take care of the rest", a voice came from the corner of the room.
After listening to the voice, the grin which was accompanied with fear now accompanied assurance, assurance of the one who is said to be among the few who surpassed any and all individuals from the council of 24.
The person who spoke it came front and as light fell on him the council went again in the dilemma to remain excited or fear a very possible outcome which will worsen their situation.
He possessed a mark, mark which tells that he has made contract with some devil. If at any time he were to lose his soul or consciousness to the devil, no one will be able to do anything as his power transcends what one can only imagine to achieve.
He reassured them and left. He waited for the master to tell him what side mission he has to do. As sun set, master came to see this mysterious person. He asked master what new name will he has to take and what is the side mission he will be given.
Master replied with a serious look on his face, "You have to assemble the team which you were once part of and the name you will take is the one which you used as the member of that team, Akai (Red)." He (Akai) agreed and left to find the diamonds which are covered in coal powder.
What kind of diamonds will Akai find in this dire situation and why is his old team disbanded?
