It was morning of the next day and Tomoe was grabbing Kurogame's collar as he was about to leave the hotel.
"What are you doing?"
"Look." Tomoe pointed at the see-through doors and when Kurogame looked through it,there was fog. A lot of fog. It was incredibly dense and he couldn't even see 5 centimeters past the window.
"How didn't you see it?" asked Feta laughing.
"...So how do we get to the Nether?" asked Kurogame trying really hard to hold back his anger.
"Is that what you decided to call it? Well,we should be able to do it from inside here though you guys have to jump through the doors the second I activate it."
"Why?" asked Nagisa.
"The 'Nether' is a place created by the Sins. The streets are fine since that's public property but anything that's counted as 'private property' here is counted the same there."
"So they're all owned by the Sins?" asked Kurogame.
"Yep."
"So you're scared by trespassing?"
"They can do anything to anyone who goes onto their property. Even if the Sin is on a different continent."
The class silently ran back to their rooms and came back down with their weapons and METs activated.
"Aszain Halun Rain."
They quickly ran through the door and on the other side the sky was a deep purple. There were people walking past them and a lot of lights on. Although it was morning in the regular world,here it felt and looked like it was night. "Hey Tom?"
"What's up,Feta?"
"What's with the ridiculous names you always say?"
"To go into their domain you have to show the fact you know them. There are a bunch of ways of doing that but the easiest way of doing it is by saying their name."
"Do you honestly remember all 7 of their names?"
"I'm quite good at memorizing,unlike some people."
"What are you talking about?"
"Say my name."
"Tom Su Fart."
"Completely wrong. How evil do you think my parents were when they named me?"
"War Criminal-level."
"Hey Tomo,what are those things?" asked Soma pointing at a bunch of little gnome creatures.
"Those are Liten. They're usually neutral on matters so don't attack the-." Tomoe was interrupted by Ao sitting right in front of one of them and starting to paint them. "We're leaving."
"1 second."
"...Okay,1 second has passed."
"Alright,let's go."
"Oh. Don't show that painting to anyone."
"Why?"
"Though they're mostly neutral,they vary. The evil ones know a lot of curses and some of those curses may include but are not limited to, 'Death upon sight', 'Mass Unluck', and 'Summon'. All of them having a chance of killing you if you see them."
"So people may die upon looking at my painting?"
"There's a chance. Athough being low,I don't think you should chance it."
"Alri-"
"And speak of the devil. Everyone,run!" Everyone looked behind them and started running after seeing a dozen Lutin riding on top of a feathery dragon-like creature running through the cramped streets.
"WHAT IS THAT THING?!" asked Feta.
"It's called a Hippogriff. They're extremely proud but,the most they can do is carry 2 average humans and peck a people."
"Are they dangerous?"
"Depends on the person. Though you probably shouldn't fight them,Kurogame"
"WHY NOT?!" said Kurogame already brandishing his knives.
"If you hit them they'll call their friends and you'll have to fight hundreds possibly thousands at once."
"THEN WHAT DO WE DO 'CAUSE I'M GETTIN' REAL TIRED!"
"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm."
"DON'T JUST 'HM'!THINK OF SOMETHING!"
"Shuichiro,you have ground powers,right?"
"Yes?"
"Make a wall behind us."
"Alright." Shuichiro then stopped,letting everyone run past him and then created a wall using the buildings and the road.
All of them then fell and took a breather.
"I didn't notice it until Shiro created the wall but,this place is nothing like Wrath's Nether." said Ao. -Shiro is Shuichiro- He was correct. None of the buildings were destroyed and it seemed like a normal,bustling city.
"Now, Team Unchanged,North Star,Pollock and Breakdown will be looking on the west side together. The rest of the teams will be going with me and looking around the east side."
"What are we looking for?" asked Soma.
"What else? Where Azsain -Lust- is hiding."
The class went quiet for a second and then Feta walked up to Tomoe. "WHY THE **** DO YOU NOT KNOW WHERE HE IS?!! AREN'T YOU OUR GUIDE!!"
"You're forgetting your question marks for the other question." said Tomoe while blood was trickling down his ear.
"ANSWER ME!"
"It's not like I can figure out everything in a week."
"A week? Haven't you been studying this guys for months?"
"Oh. I procrastinated."
And that is how our story concludes. Though the story was short,it sure was interesting,don't you think? Concluding with the main character's death?
-The End-
The teams were merged temporarily and the leaders of the 2 teams were,West Side,Feta
East Side,Tomoe.
We will be following the West Side's perspective for the rest of this chapter.
"So,Unagi?" asked Feta. JSYK, -Just So You Know- Unagi means eel in Japanese.
"My name is Nagisa.
"Right...Do you have any idea on where to find Lust?"
Nagisa sighed, "He's probably in a spot with no aura."
"No aura?" asked Hani. "Wouldn't he be in a place with a strong aura signature?"
"Tomo can sense those as easily as he can breathe so he's probably hiding."
"Alright,we'll go with your plan Nagi." says Feta.
"I'm guessing your using the term rather than using it as a nickname?" JSYK,Nagi is a disablement terminology. It's a way to list clinical observations.
"Excuse me,it seems like you need help with something?" A lady in her mid-20's walked up to them. She had brown,frizzy hair and was wearing a green dress that stretched to the road. Despite that,she also wore an orange skirt and had a leopard-skin hanging from it.
Everyone except Soma and Yuuki looked at her as though she was a suspected murderer. Despite that,Soma walked up to her and asked, "Do you know any cool,popular guys around here?"
"Ah,yes. You're talking about Master Aszain,right?"
"Yeah!"
"Oh,but that's a problem..." The second they heard that Nagisa started pulling Soma away.
"Why is it a problem." Soma was ignoring Nagisa.
"Well," A ring of fire then began encircling them but not her. "he doesn't like being killed."
They tried running but the fire had completely trapped them. Feta then shouted at them, "WHOEVER CAN USE WATER GET TOGETHER AND SHOOT AT A SINGLE POINT. DO IT NOW!"
"Goodbye." As she said that,the fire turned blue and was slowly turning purple. They were about to die.
"Bye Bye!" said Soma.
"It's not time to say goodbye!" shouted Aki about to look at Soma but noticed she's gone. "..." Aki's mind went blank.
Soma then appeared on the other side of the ring and tapped on the lady's shoulder. "May I ask for your name by the way?"
"H-How did you get out?" The colour was draining from her face.
"I'll tell you if you tell me your name."
"M-M-Morgan Le F-Fay..."
"Oh! Le sounds a lot like Tomoe's 'Se'."
"HOW DID YOU ESCAPE!"
"I dug. Seems like the tunnel was big enough,right guys?"
"I can't believe we didn't think of it earlier." said Aki.
"Doesn't matter. Let's just punish this *****." said Feta.
