-Kuoh Academy-
Have you ever had the feeling that the universe was completely against you. Well, that's how the illusion killer was feeling at this very moment. A week had passed since Touma made a contract with the golden dragon and things had not been going well for Touma since his return. For starters a power outage had occurred at minute he had left so when he returned homes he had been quite upset that most of his food had rotten away, the day after that he had decided to take a short cut only to end up accidentally run into wannabe gangster and had somehow pissed them off, not to mention things had been beyond boring. But the biggest of his misfortunes had to be that his charge, one Hyoudou Issei had somehow been turned into a devil in his absence. He had discovered this when he had crossed paths with the brown hared pervert and Krios had informed him that Issei was giving off the same type of energy as the Gremory and Sitri group. After informing Azazel the governor had ordered the young freelancer to continue his observation and wait for further orders.
"I still can't believe it. I stop watching the guy for one week and shit hits the fan" A frustrated Touma though as walked through the hall ready to head home after a long day.
"Are you really that surprised considering you're usual luck?" Krios asked
'*sigh* I guess not Kamijou mentally sighed
"Hey come on partner cheer up at least that week wasn't all bad" the entity stated getting a raised eyebrow from its host.
'Oh yeah, fighting a dragon king fight, getting my ass kicked by the god of thunder, good times' Touma said as a shiver went down the freelancers spine remembering the 'spar' he had with Thor.
"And don't forget your time with a certain Valkyrie" Krios added.
At the mention of the silver haired young woman Touma couldn't help but grow a small smile. When he had finally recovered Azazel had informed him that they'd be staying for the better part of a week and so being the gracious that he was Odin had assigned Rosswiesse as Touma's guide and escort, which frankly didn't seem to bother either of them in the slightest. The Valkyrie had spent the week giving him a tour of the beautiful city of Asgard and with a few other popular spots such as the battle arena, the school of magic and a few other places. She had also been one of the few who had cheered him on in his spar against the god of thunder along with being the one who patched him up after said spar. So all in all he had enjoyed his time with Rosswiesse, although for some reason he did notice that she stole a few glances at him every once in a while and the few times he had caught her she would quickly turn away with a blush on her cheeks and while the illusion killer couldn't exactly figure out why, he couldn't deny the silver haired girl looked very cute when she blushed.
"Heads up partner we got company twelve o clock" Krios statedbreaking Touma out of his thoughts. As he looked in front of him he saw the familiar form of a slim girl with long brown hair that ended in two short braids and matching brown eyes. She wore a blue headband and the usual Kuoh girl's uniform. This girl was Kusaka Reya, a member of the student council and Sona Sitri's peerage.
"Hello Kusaka-san, is there something I can do for you?" Touma asked
"Greeting to you as well Kamijou-sempai, I am here to inform you that Kaichou would like to see you right away" Reya informed him
"Really? Did she say why she needed to see me" Touma asked
"I'm afraid I am not at liberty to say. If you wish to find out you'll have to talk to kaichou" Reya politely responded.
"Alright then let's go" Kamijou said as he received a nod from the second year as she gestured him to follow her. During their walk towards the student council room many people began to talk about why the third great lady of Kuoh would want to see someone like Kamijou. Somewhere saying that he would be offered the spot on the student council, while other came up with more scandalous theory involving Sona seeing as Touma was one of the few people she talked to outside of the student council or the ORC (Occult Research Club).
After a few minutes of walking the two student were in front of two wooden doors the lead into the student council room. Once inside Touma saw that the room was quite spacious and elegant with six wooden desks one for each member of the student council while said individuals were doing their own paper work, and in the far end of the room was none other than Sona Sitri sitting on a large chair behind a large wooden desk as she looked through some papers.
"Kaichou, I've brought Kamijou-sempai just as you've requested" Reya said getting here masters attention.
"Very good Kusaka-chan you're dismissed" the heiress said as her subordinate nodded giving her and Touma a bow before walking away. "Please Kamijou-san take a seat" Sona gestured to one of the chairs in front of her desk.
"So Shitori-san what was so important t than it couldn't wait till tomorrow? I was hoping to catch the sale at the grocery store" Touma said nonchalantly as he took on the chairs and sat down while Sona simply rolled her eyes in slight amusedment.
"I apologies for taking you away from something of such impotence but before we get to that I want to confirm something with you. As you've told Rias and myself you are in fact a freelancer who is here in our territory by orders of your employer to hunt down any undesirables, correct" Sona asked.
"Yeah?" Touma responded razing a curious eyebrow. While technically he was here to observe Hyoudou Issei a lot of weird stuff happened in the town of Kuoh and since Azazel liked the place the governor would pay him to take care of any undesirables that came into town as Sona had put.
"And is it safe to assume that even under your current employer you'd be free to take other jobs?" the she-devil asked as she pushed up her glasses giving her a very boss like manner.
"I guess? It would depend on the job though" Touma said getting a good idea of where this was going.
"Well then If this is indeed the case then I would like to hire you" Sona stated while Touma simple gave her a neutral look.
"…I'm sorry, could you repeat that?" Asked the illusion killer
"*sigh* as I said Kamijou-san, I am in need of your services and so I wish to hire you" said the student body president.
"Yeah sorry I'm just surprised is all, I mean you don't really strike me as the type of person to ask for outside help, so the fact that you're asking for mine surprising" Touma explained in a professional manner getting a nod of understanding from Sona.
"Well in any other circumstance you'd be right but the situation which I am faced with forbids either my peerage or myself from getting involved without causing an incident" Said the student body president as the illusion killer raised his eyebrow from curiosity.
"And what kind of situation are we talking about exactly?"asked Kamijou.
At that moment Sona snapped her fingers as a tall girl with long straight black that extends all the way down to her knees, hourglass figure and ample breasts handed and heterochromic eyes, stepped besides Sona and handed her a folder.
"Tell me Kamijou-san how much do you know about Hyoudou Issei?"
"You mean aside from the fact that his a devil now?" Touma asked
"So you've noticed. Care to share how exactly you found out?" Sona questioned as she leaned back in her chair.
"I have my ways and I take it that since he isn't hear that his part of the Gremory group. Care to explain how that happened" Touma asked as he received an annalistic look from the Sitri heiress.
"Now why would you be interested in that?" Sona question while Touma simply gave her an amused smirk.
"Call me curious" He told her. At that moment the Illusion killer and the high devil entered a stare down to see who would falter first, the atmosphere grew tense as the entire student council stopped what they were doing. Seeing that he wouldn't back down Sona decided that telling him wouldn't bring any real harm.
"From what Rias told me, a fallen angel had lured Hyoudou-san by asking him out on a 'date' to which he accepted" Sona explained only to be interrupted as Touma raised his hand gesturing her to stop.
"Wait a minute, are you telling me some random girl asked him out and he said yes without even questioning it?" Touma asked not believing that anyone would be that dumb
"Well I'm sure even you're aware that Hyoudou-san isn't the sharpest tool in the shed" Sona stated getting a nod from Kamijou.
"Ain't that the truth" Krios laughed
"Anyways, the fallen angel had gotten him into a false sense of security she took him into a secluded area and struck him down. After the fallen left it seemed that his desire to live was strong enough that he ended up summoning Rias"
"So what did she just swooped in and just changed him? did she just wait for the kid to die out so she could turn him without his concept?" Touma asked as he narrowed his eyes. Shemhazai had told him how the evil pieces system worked and how some devils took advantage of that system and enslaved people who never wanted to be involved in the supernatural, and while he felt that Sona was on the up and up he wasn't so sure about the red headed devil.
"From what Rias tell me the boy was still alive when she was summoned and yes she asked him if he indeed wished to be revived to which he gave his concept" Sona explained understanding where Touma was coming from.
"I'll take your word for it. Anyways what exactly do you want me to do" Touma asked as Sona opened the folder and placed it in front him showing the picture of four familiar individuals.
"The people you see before you are fallen angels. While normally Fallen would simply pass by or stay for a day or two and leave this group has been in Kuoh for at least three weeks and while they've mostly kept to themselves they've started to make noise. Particularly this since she was the one who attacked Hyoudou Issei" Sona said as she pointed at the picture of Raynare. "We've also noticed a large concentration of rogue exorcist around the old church which tells us that that's where their hiding." Sona told him. Touma was doing his best not to look surprised as he recognized the group, Raynare, Kalawarner, Milted and Dohnaseek.
'What the hell are they doing here?! Azazel didn't say anything about this' Kamijou asked
"Maybe he doesn't know. Think about it Azazel said he wasn't a threat, not mention that the old perv was more interested in studying the kid so why have him killed?" Krios said making a good point as Touma returned his attention back to Sona.
"Alright so how do I fit into any of this? If these guys are up to something why not just take them out" Kamijou asked.
"Because Kamijou-san they haven't done anything that can be counted as a threat. But even so the signs are there, those fallen are up to something and unlike Rias I will not wait for them to strike first, but seeing as I cannot do anything directly as it could be counted as an act of aggression I would like for you to gather any intel you can bring me about what the fallen are planning" Sona explained as Touma contemplated about accepting the job.
'Azazel will definitely want to know about this' Touma though." Alright Sona I'll take the job"
"Excellent" Sona said as she sent him a satisfied smile.
-Kuoh/Touma's House-
After spending a few hours discussing the terms of their contract, Touma had finally arrived at his home. Once he had put his thing a ways the dark haired teen took his phone and began to call his employer.
"Touma-Kun how nice of you to call. What can I do for you" Azazel responded in his happy tone
"Hey boss, look I think I've got some info you might be interested in" Touma said gaining the fallen's full attention.
"Oh? do tell" the governor said
"The Sitri heiress said she wanted to talk to me. Turns out she wanted to hire me to gather some information on some fallen angels that have been hanging around town for a few weeks"
"Strange our people know that's devil territory, so they know not to overstay their welcome. Have you been able to identify who they are?" Azazel asked
"*Sigh* yeah it's Raynare and her little group" Touma answered
"So that's where they've been" Azazel muttered. "I've been wondering were those four had disappeared to. Shemhazai told me that they haven't checked in in over a month"
"So what am I supposed to do? Sitri wants me to get evidence that there up to something" Kamijou stated
"Hmm, I take it the Sitri girl has already figured out were their hiding correct" Azazel asked getting a quick yep of confirmation. "In that case, I want you to go to their hide out and see find out what their up too. I think I have a pretty good idea but I want to confirm my suspicions before taking any direct action" Azazel explained as Touma nodded in understanding.
"Alright, I'll do what I can" Touma responded
"Goodman, report back when you've gotten the information" Azazel told him as he hung up.
"Looks like were back in business partner" Krios told him with a bit of joy in hint.
"*chuckle* looks that way" Kamijou chuckled as he headed to his room in order to change into his street clothes which consisted of a red t-shirt under a black jacket, dark grey jeans and black and white sneakers. Once he was done head headed over to the old church to begin his investigation.
-Town of Kuoh / Near the abandoned church-
At the moment Touma narrowed his eyes as he took in the sight before him. It had taken him an hour to get to the abandoned church, Once he had snuck passed the patrols the young freelancer had spent the better part of two hours on top of a trees obverting the place and from what Krios had informed him the fallen were indeed somewhere inside the church. Now the question was, what was he to do?
"So what's the plan" asked Krios
'Well, I've got a pretty good idea of when and where the patrols make their rounds. I could knock one out, take his place and sneak in, thankfully this guy's cover their faces so there a good chance i won- wait! Some ones coming out' Touma pointed out as he looked through his binoculars and saw a young man with silver who looked to be in his early twenties and a young girl in a nun outfit following behind and from the looks of it the young nun didn't look all to comfortable being near the silver haired man. Not the he could blame her if the creepy smile the guy wore on his face said anything it was that he wasn't someone you'd want to cross paths with.
"Come on Asia we're off to do the lords work HAHAHAHAHA" the man laughed sending a small chill down Touma's spine.
"Y-yes father freed" the nun hesitantly responded as the strange duo disappeared in the forest path.
"Hey partner, the girl she had a sacred gear" The entity stated.
'Are you sure?' asked Touma
"Positive, but from what I sensed it wasn't too strong, my guess is that it's probably a support type" The entity responded. To which the spiky haired teen nodded in acknowledgment.
After a few minutes of waiting Touma spotted a rogue who decided to stray from his patrol route in order to take a leak. The illusion killer took this as his chance and once he had successfully sneak up behind him he swiftly knock him out cold with a blow to the back of the head. Touma then removed the exorcist hat, scarf and trench coat. The freelancer then hind the man behind a few bushes and made his way into the abandoned building. Once inside he noticed that the interior seemed like any ordinary church, a few pews on his left and right, stained glass windows along with a large alter on the far end of the room. As he continued to observe the room Touma noticed a slight opening on the floor near the alter. When he removed the wooden podium Touma discovered a stairway that most likely led to an underground compound.
'So, what do you think is waiting for us down there?' Kamijou asked as he looked into the dark staircase.
"Don't know, but I can tell you this, does four are definitely down there I'm getting a strong read in them" Krios responded
'*sigh* well like Baraquiel-sensei always says, nothing ventured nothing gained. Let's go' said the illusion killer as he began his descent.
Once he had reached the bottom of the staircase he saw that it led to a large room, almost as large as the chapel on the floor above them, it was empty for the most part aside from a few candles here and there giving the place a very ominous feel. But what really caught the young freelancer attention was the large cross that was covered in chain which was radiating a venomous green glow.
"You know im getting a pretty strong temple of doom vibe from this place. You think they got guys to chant kali ma" said the entity with a laugh while its partner shook his head as he took out his cellphone and took a picture of the strange cross.
'Come on let's keep searching, this thing is giving me the creeps' Touma said as he began to walk towards a hallway on the right side of the large room.
As Touma continued to investigate the underground base he came across various room which were either living quarters or storage. He had crossed paths with a few exorcist but thankfully they either gave him a quick glance or sent a nod which he returned. But just as it seemed that his search would turn up nothing useful he heard several voices coming from a near by corridor. The dark haired freelancer approached the room were the voices originated, he then places his ear against the wooden door as he began to listen in on what could be important information.
"Look I'm just saying, maybe it would be for the best if we postpone the ceremony and relocate to a more secure location" Said a female voice who he recognized as Kalawarner.
"Postpone?! Are you insane or has that mini dress of yours cut the blood flow to your brain? The girl is already here and the cross as already gathered the necessary energy. All we need is one more day to finish the preparations. Once the ceremony is complete and we deliver the girls gear and our mission is complete, I'm sure Azazel-sama will reward us for a job well done" came Raynares voice, catching the illusion killer of guard.
'I thought Azazel said he didn't know what this four were doing. Somethings definitely not right here' Touma thought as he continued to listen to the conversation.
"Even so the Gremory knows that there are fallen angels in her territory" Kalawarner stated.
"*tch* you are just as guilty on that account as I am Kalawarner" Sid the familiar voice of Dohnaseek
"Well if you had given us a better description of him rather than just calling him a filthy Gremory grunt then perhaps I could have avoided him when I came across him" Kalawarner shot back.
"By the sound of it those two either ran into the perv or the pretty boy. My money's on the perv"
"Enough! What's done is done. Even if the Gremory or the other owner of this town suspect anything will be long once the gear is extracted" Raynare said ending the argument.
"Well i don't know about you but I'm pretty sure that counts as a confession if I ever heard one" Said Krios
'You've got that right, but what was that about extracting a sacred gear? Azazel said that a sacred gear was anchored to the wilders soul, so how is an extraction even possible?' Touma asked as he got a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach.
"I don't know partner but from the sound of it that cross we found has something to do with it. Hopefully the old perv will have some answers" said Krios but at that moment the sound of static could be heard from inside the room.
"What is it?" asked Raynare as the sound of mumbling could be heard. "What!? God damn it! Alright sound the alarm and inform the rest of the exorcist" The leather clad angle instructed.
"What's going on?" said a childish voice indicating it was Mittelt who had spoken.
"Apparently an exorcists found one of his buddies unconscious in the woods, he also said the he was missing most of his uniform which means he have an intruder, spread out and find them" the fallen ordered.
'Damn it!' the teencursed as he quickly made a run for the stairs, after a few minutes Touma had found the room he had first he had come across when he descended but just as he was about to climb the first step to freedom…
"Hey!" Said a gruff voice which Kamijou stop in his tracks. As he turned around he saw two rogue with weapons in hard heading his way.
"Were the hell do you think you going? We got an intruder" Said one of the exorcist.
"Quick kid they don't know who you are, play along"
'Right'
"Um yeah I was going topside to help with the search" Touma answered them. The two exorcist looked at each other and after what felt like hours they responded. Only not in the way Touma had expected.
"Fine, just watch your ass if you to run into Sellzen" warned the second exorcist. Making Touma sweat drop at how easily this two had believed him.
"His right, Crazy bastard is looking for any excuse to chop someone up and he doesn't really care if you're on his side or not" said the first.
"R-right I'll be careful" responded Touma. The two exorcist gave a nod as they headed to the left side of the compound.
"Wow does two were dumb"
"Maybe so but I'm not going to look at a gifted horse in the mouth" Touma responded as he as began to climb up the stairs and so once he had reached the surfaced Kamijou carefully maneuvered his way passed the exorcists and while there were a few of close calls he had been able to successfully sneak out of enemy territory and began his trek back home.
-Streets of Kuoh-
Just as Touma was making his way through desolate the streets of Kuoh he suddenly stopped in his tracks as Krios informed that he felt a barrio nearby. Choosing rather to be safe than sorry the young freelance headed over to were barrier, once he had arrived he saw a simple two storied house. while at first glance it may it may have seemed that nothing was out of the ordinary both the entity and its host noticed that things where a bit too and so decided to check things out. As Touma reached the front does he saw that the handle had been blown off, once he had opened the door he saw that the house was pitch black along with hit by the feeling of dread.
"Yeah…there's totally nothing bad happening in there" Krios said sarcastically
"Don't jinx it" the spiky haired young man said as he entered the house.
And so he made his way through the dark hallway Touma began to hear what sounded the like crazed laughter and panful moaning. Once made it to the living room Touma peek over the corner just as a silver haired man kill the resident with a sword of light.
"Shit It's that crazy looking bastard we saw leaving the church " Krios Stated to which Touma nodded in agreement. Seeing that there was nothing he could do for the dead man Touma began to slowly back away but accidentally stepped on a loose floorboard alerting the killer to his presence as the silver heard man turned to him with a psychotic grin on his face.
"Well well what do we have here? Another shitty heathen" Asked the silver haired killer. Touma gritted his teeth as he mentally cursed his terrible luck. And so seeing that he had already been caught, Touma opened the door to the living room deciding to face the mad man head on.
"Who are you!?" demanded Touma "Why did you do this!?"
"Oh i'm no one special, just your friendly neighborhood rogue exorcist. Freed Sellzen at your service! And this here is a shitty heathen who made a deal with a devil!" The Psychopathic exorcist introduced himself.
'So this is the guy those two told us about. I guess I can see why they were weary of him' Touma thought as he got into a fighting stance.
"You know I think that this is exactly what would happened if Accelerator and Vento ever had a kid" Krios stated which made Touma cringe at the thought.
"I did need that image in my head" the illusion killer told his partner while his face looked like he had just eaten something sour.
"Now seeing as I don't like witnesses I'm gonna have to cut you up into itty bitty pieces. So be a good little heathen and scream for me!" Freed yelled as he charged towards Touma with his sword raised over his head. However the illusion killer quickly raised his right hand as the sword came down in a downward arc. The moment the sword made contact with Touma's right hand the sound of breaking glass rang across the room as the light blade broke apart surprising the exorcist. Touma tool advantage and then delivered a punch with his left hand to the priest's gut which made the psycho take a few steps back, Kamijou then used his free right hand to deliver another punch to his face which sent the priest crashing into a nearby couch.
"HAHAHAHA looks like the shitty heathen has some fight in him" the priest said with mad glee as he got back up on his feet and took out his light gun and began firing, but thanks to his precognition and superior speed Touma was above to dodge the bullets with ease. Once he had gotten close enough Touma had managed to knock the gun out of Freed's hand. The exorcist then jumped back just as Touma was about to deliver a right hook, gaining some distance between him and his opponents.
"I have to admit I haven't had this much fun in a long time. Now let see how long you can keep up" Freed exclaimed as he charged towards Touma once again as both Touma and freed engaged into an all-out brawl. Both combatants met each other blow to blow and freed would get in the occasional lucky punch. After a few minutes of fighting Touma's was able obtain the upper hand when he saw his chance as he jumped into the air and delivered a strong superman punch which knocking the priest out cold.
"Well that was surprisingly easy" The entity stated
"Yeah but let not take any chances with this guy" Touma said as he quickly looked around for something to restrain the priest with. Fortunately he was able to find some rope in a nearby close once he had tied the crazed man Touma reach for him phone and called call Azazel.
He didn't however hear it when Issei Hyoudou entered the house, once he had entered the room and saw a murder scene and a tied up priest he decided to what anyone else in his position would do and help the now reviving priest, in case the person who he thought responsible returned. It was at that time that Touma returned to the room having finished his talk with Azazel, who gave him instructions to bring the priest back to his apartment for interrogation. But when he saw Issei who just finished untying Freed.
"No!" Touma yelled abruptly hanging up. Issei looked up in surprise obviously not expecting him to be there. Touma quickly ran up and pushed Issei out of the way and was just barely able to jump back just in time to avoid the light sword that the priest had managed to get a hold off.
"Oh what irony that a shitty devil would be my savior." Said Freed while laughing "Well it's been fun but I'm going to have to leave you shitty heathens!" Freed then pulled out a capsule and slammed it on the ground creating a blinding light. When the light receded he was gone.
"*sigh* aw man and just when I had him too" Touma Sighed
"Wait a minute? You're Kamijou-sempai! What are you doing here?" asked Issei with narrowed eyes.
"Well I was here trying to capture that rogue before you showed up and let him go." Said Touma.
"How was I supposed to know he was a bad guy?" asked Issei indignantly
"This guy really is a freaking dumbass isn't he" Krios stated
"*sigh* It doesn't matter anymore. Man my employer isn't going to be happy" Touma took great care not to use Azazel's name. "Can we take it outside I'm getting sick of the smell of blood." Issei nodded having similar thoughts as they walked out of the house and into the front yard.
"So did you kill that guy?" asked Issei.
"What?! No! That psycho priest killed him because that person summoned a devil which I'm guessing was you and aren't you suppose to appear out of a magic portal or something?"
"I can't yet." Said Issei "I only got my powers recently."
"How long have you been a devil exactly?" Asked Touma.
"A few days. I went on a date with what I thought was a cute first year but it turned she was a fallen angel, she ended up killed me and then the club president turned me into a devil to save me"
"You know if this was an anime this guy would be the main character. Because I swear whenever the main character gains a religion related power it's usually demonic in nature. Honestly it gets kind of old after a while, why can't there be a high schooler that gets infused with the powers on a half god or something and has to kick demon ass while keeping it a secret from friends and family? Oh and he'll have a harem to, like a tsundere demon slayer chick, a clueless non blood related sibling…" The entity began going off about the idea he had.
'Not now Krios' Kamijou thought
"*hmph* kill joy" Krios complained while Touma just ignored him.
"Do you happen to know where she is now?" Touma asked
"No, I don't" said Issei "Why."
"Let's just say I had some bad experiences with fallen angels before coming here" while It was a different sort of fallen angel but was still technically true. But the real reason he had asked was to know if the Gremory group already knew, if they did then that meant that he might run into them when went after the rogue members of Grigori
"Kind of strange to be honest. I have enhanced senses, speed and strength but religious objects make me afraid whenever I see one. Even that abandoned church affects me." Admitted Issei, having wanted someone to talk to about this.
"Makes sense." Said Touma with a shrug.
"right ,cause nobody with half a brain would think that angels would be hiding in an abandoned church, the one place the devils would avoid in the town" warned the entity, as bolt of lightning shot at him which Touma was able to jump away avoiding them, while Issei got pulled away.
"Oh, come on what now!?" he looked and saw the rest of the occult research club in a defensive circle around Issei. "Seriously?"
"Man your luck sucks" Krios stated with a bit of a laugh
'doesn't it always?' replied Touma with a scowl.
"Touché"
"Issei are you okay." Asked Rias who was looking at him worriedly "Did he do anything to hurt you?"
"No Boucho its fine, he actually saved my life." Issei told them as the group turned to look at him confused.
"What?" asked a confused Rias
"Yeah, I walked into the house after he had this priest tied up..."
"Which you let go" Touma put in
"You're not going to let that go are you? "Issei said to which Touma shook his head to the sides. "Anyways the priest was about to kill me but then Kamijou-sempai pushed me out of the way and saved me. But the priest got away and he also killed the guy who did the summoning"
"Well in any case the problem is over with. We should go." Said Rias, before turning to Touma as she looked at him straight in the eyes. "I thank you for protecting my servant" She told him giving him a polite bow before turning and walking off with the rest of the group.
'Well at least I didn't get attacked…by all of them anyways' Said Touma as he began to exit the house as he began to make his way back home.
"And hey look at the bright side at least we got the info Azazel asked for not to mention we can make a vague copy for the Sitri girl and get paid, it's a win/win" Krios said trying to cheer up his partner and was successful as a Touma gained a small smile.
"*Heh* I guess you're right. Maybe my lucks finally turning around" Touma said with an optimistic tone, only for that idea to be tossed out the window as it suddenly began to rain.
"*Sigh* such misfortune"
