Note: Almaz is a hero-otaku. I would so love to see Almaz and Kyle meeting and talking about...heroic stuff.

I do not own Tales of Vesperia or Disgaea.

The Netherworld, a world spoiled by spite cruelty, blood soaked taboos, and boundless riffraff.

They say that dark dwellers run rampant causing horrifying disasters in these lands.

In the center of this Netherworld, lies a school that endlessly continues to expand its grounds.

--The Nether Institute Evil Academy.

With the Overlord as dean and greater demons for teachers, demon students who follow their baser instinct labeled as "honor students" at this school of torment.

This is the root of evil in this tumultuous Netherworld...The Pandora's Box that spreads corruption and destruction.

Still, many continue to be fascinated by this darkness. If you have the courage to descend up on the lands of the Netherworld, beware of losing your mind to the chaos.

This is your only warning...

Skit 01: What a Hero REALLY is part one

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Yuri-san, you're really amazing." started Almaz.

Yuri blinked. "What?"

"You know exactly what you're doing and you really get things done," explained Almaz with a determined look, "That's exactly what it means to be a hero! I really admire you Yuri-san!!"

"Hero, eh?" said Yuri, "I don't really consider myself as being 'heroic'. I just do what has to be done if no one is willing to do it. I'm not really someone to admire anyhow..."

"But you saved your world from its impending doom," insisted Almaz, "So you are a hero!"

"Okay, okay!" said Yuri, "I'm a hero! All right! You don't have to get all touchy! What are you: a hero-otaku?" (*Otaku = a fan of a certain trend)

"....." Almaz sighed. "Well, I'm, I'm sort of...a hero."

"Hm"

"But I'm a failed hero," he added.

"Oh"

"Yeah, I'm just the butt of everyone's jokes," muttered Almaz, "No one takes me seriously. Plus, what kind of hero gets kidnap by the Overlord's son and gets his title taken?"

"I don't know," replied Yuri, "I've heard of 'heroes' who are dumb enough to get caught and captured by the enemy."

Almaz pouted.

"Hey, don't go making that face," said Yuri, a bit awkward now. "I-I wasn't trying to make fun of you. I was just saying."

"It's all right," said Almaz, "I read about your blunt personality and sarcastic demeanor."

"Okay, now you're making me feel bad," muttered Yuri.

"Sorry."

Silence...

"Hey, I got an idea." he began. "Yuri-san, please be my teacher!"

"What!?" Yuri nearly fell back.

"Please teach me how to be a great hero!" Almaz exclaimed.

"Wait! I-I don't know anything about being a hero!" declared Yuri.

"But you are a hero!" insisted Almaz. "Please!" he dropped down on one knee, "Yuri-san! For the sake of the princess! I must be a hero! I must protect her!"

"Ah--," Yuri was speechless.
