Edited 2, thank you PanickingNoob94.
Ultimate Kuuga : That's... Tempting. It will be kinda hard tho... with Takumi's personality.
Takumi was the First to wake up. His surrounding didn't change at all. He still on the same room, same bad, sam-
snort*
"damn it..." He curse with low tone.
It wasn't a dream at all. He still stuck in the same world. Along with...
"Fuck yeah! It wasn't a dream!" Shout The Spear hero.
'Good for you...' thought Takumi with irritated face.
The other Heroes didn't Take it kindly, so they throw Motoyasu with whatever they grab first.
The meal was served in the audience chamber. The long table has been set up then covered with fuits, bacon, pastries, etc.
The heroes chatter about how they planned their adventure, while Takumi ate alone and wondering if he could returned back to his old world.
No... He wish to return back to his world.
It's almost noon. A servant was send to retrieved the Four of them and politely informing them, that the king requested a meeting. Their would be companion had been gathered.
'Finally.' thought Takumi.
The four were lead through the castle, then entering a room that most likely the throne room. Within it, The king was already seated on the throne.
The four of them then knelt before the King. Takumi seems a bit reluctant to do it, since he has a bad experience when dealing with a king... LITERALLY.
"as promised yesterday, I have recruited companions who will accompany you on your Journey." announced the king, "Everyone here has gathered..."
Just finished this already Oldman, thought Takumi as he really wanted this talked to get done and overwith.
"now then, future champions. Please set forth with the hero that you shall swear your allegiance to."
The recruited companions were all standing beside their choosen hero. Five went to Ren, three went to Itsuki, and Four to Motoyasu. Nobody went toward Takumi. He didn't really care though, he had decided what he wanted since this morning.
"w-well. Dear me, i would never thought such situation could occur." said the king.
"No... this was for the best." Takumi suddenly speak cutting the King speech, "return me back to my world." he said.
The king become quite for a while,
"That's strange... I thought we got everyone's full cooperation yesterdays." said the king.
"for the record, I'd not agreed with anything." said Takumi, "Now then, send me back."
"Well, I didn't think I have to say this now but... That's Impossible."
"HUUHH!???" Takumi eyes went wide, "You've got to be kidding me! What do you mean by that!?"
"The only reason we could summoned you are all because of the wave. Until the wave are over, I'm sorry to said this but, we can't send you back."
"DAMN IT." Takumi can only curse at the cruel reality.
"Now on to your Issue, Shield Hero. The fact that you don't have companions."
"sigh* no need, I'm alone is more than enough." said the still pissed Takumi.
"I see... Well then. Every month we shall provide the heroes with funds they are required, however for this one time only the shield hero funds will be Higher Then the rest. Now, Here are your initial war chest, accept them with our thanks."
Some noble (or was it guard) came to Hand out each and every heroes pouch.
Takumi obtained 800 silver.
"Heroes you may began your journey." the King said it dramatically.
Takumi wasn't happy at all. First, he couldn't go back to his world and not to mentioned.
'The hell with that oldman... the way he talked and see me.' Takumi glance at the castle, 'it's remind me of... Kusaka.'
"aaah! thinking about it won't help me at all... now then, if we talked about game, it would be DraQue I guess. To start adventure we need to search companions, gears, and medicine. The first one is out... So it would be..." He looked around, "where do I buy them again?"
few minutes of wandering around later~ '3'
"Welcome good sir. Haven't seen your face around here."
A man with bald shaved head and beard with well-built body welcoming him when he entering the shop.
"If you need weapon or stuff, you come to the right place." the shop keeper then looked at Takumi, "Weird clothes, never seen any kind like it." he glance at Takumi's shield, "perhaps you are one of the summoned heroes. Everyone's been talking about."
"Y-yeah..."
"Well, Wether you're a shield or whatever doesn't matter to me. If you're going to be a regular, I will Welcome you. Well then, what can I help?"
"weapon... I guess..."
"you guess?"
"You're one strange lad."
"shutup"
"Just wait for a bit." said Oyaji. He Then prepared four kind of swords and Put it on the counter, "from the left Iron, Magic Iron, Magic Steel, and Silver Iron. In ascending order of price, their quality are all guaranteed."
"woah."
Takumi grab and hold one of the swords, however at that moment an electric shock occurred, and it caused him to let go of the sword. The same thing happened when he tried to hold another one.
"what's going on?" asked the confused Takumi.
Caution
Legendary Weapon Rule Violation Holding non-assigned Weapon
Help
A hero may not hold, another weapon other than their assigned legendary weapon
"Hahahah... am I Mari?" said the unconsciously smiling Takumi.
"Mari who?"
"No, nothing."
'heshin! Error... Kyaaaaaa!'
"nothing Important..."
"...I see... If you say so I won't pry more than I should."
"By the way, what happened just now?"
"Oh about that... looks like I won't be able to use weapon other than this... shield."
"seriously, how does that work?" said Oyaji as he approach and appraised Takumi's shield, "Hmmm, at glance it looks like any small shield, but I can sense a great amount of power here." He pointed at the orb like thing on the shield, "Though, my appraisal magic doesn't really tell me much more." he said as he staring at Takumi.
"W-what?"
"does this shield not come off of you?"
"I could move it around my body... That's it.."
"Hmmm... That's interesting. So, want to buy some armor?"
"Umu, looking good there."
"I see."
Takumi equip Iron helmet.
Iron helmet : raise defensive power. effect : blunt resistance (s)
Takumi equip Chainmail.
Chainmail : raise devensive power. effect : slice resistance (s)
"Oyaji, how much?"
"Heroes discount, all would be 370 silver coin. For the buy back price, if it was still in a good condition, I will say it around 80 Silver for the helmet and 150 for the chainmail."
"Deal."
"excellent!"
"By the way Oyaji."
"hmm... what is it?"
"where do I buy medicine here?"
Oyaji told Takumi where he could buy some medicine. He later bought some medicine pill and some antidote pill, in case he need it.
He didn't notice the shield react toward the medicines.
Outside the town~
Orange ballon attacked Takumi.
Takumi take no damage.
"Torya!!!"
pop*
Takumi gained 1 exp.
The shield react toward the Orange Ballons remain, so He Feed the shield the remains of the ballons.

It was good and all, except...
"TO LONG!" shout Takumi, "Five minute, it took me five minute just to kill one!!!"
It couldn't be helped Tho, I mean he is...
"Is it because I'm a shield!?"
The shield... hero.
'If it's like this!!!'
Takumi then sprint right through the ballons and run into the forest.
He's being chased by five to eight ballons and their numbers continue to rise as time passed.
'this should be more than enough' thought Takumi when he feel he go deep enough.
He stopped and face his pursuer.
'gekh, so many.'
Takumi's surrounded by the orange ballons, There are Red and Blue color mixed in.
He won't die no matter how many Ballons attacking him. Their attack couldn't passed through his defense.
In the other hands, it toke him around five minutes to kill one... It would be a bit troublesome... In his current form of course.
hoooah*
Strange mark appears around Takumi's face.
jrubbrupbub*
A blinding light covered his Body and when the light's ended, Takumi is no more.
What's stand in his place now is a pure white Humanoid wearing Wolf like armor, the Wolf Orphnoch.

Takumi end the last ballon monster.
It was pieces of cake, but...
'... I didn't received any exp at all...' thought him while he staring the ballons remains.

Takumi then sold the monster remains, He received 1 copper for 2 pieces of Ballons remains. There's a little dispute, but everything is alright in the end.
He decide to sold the medicine plant tomorrow, he feels tired and He didn't level up at all.
For some unknown reason He didn't received any exp. when he fought in his Orphnoch form.
He need to rest...
[My K--, Di- Y-u -ear me no-?]
Takumi felt he heard someone talking... He must be really tired right now.
"oh... Well... Good night..."
[sigh, sl-- we-l the-... -- King.]
The sun starting to rise, in the kingdom.
Takumi too, rise from his bed waking up. He then started to get ready to sold the medicine and defeat monster, this time he won't use his other face.
As he stepped out of his room and go out of the inn. A group of knights approaching him.
(hoho mukatteru no ka?)
"you're the shield hero correct." said the representative of the knights.
"yes, do you need something?"
"The king has ordered a summons. You are come to us."
"...hah?"
Takumi and large number of knights were now at the castle. They then reached the throne room and Takumi stepped in one of the Knight pushed him to the ground.
"The hell are you doing!?" protes Takumi.
As he looked on the front of him, he saw the king, nobles, soldiers, other heroes and Red head girl.
"Would you explain what's going on here?"
"Silence you Filth!" spoke the king. He then sigh and put his hand on his forehead, "Myne, I'm sorry to ask again my dear. Would you repeat your testimony again?" He asked the redhead girl.
As He referred to to the Red Girl, tears rolled from her eyes.
"It happened last night... the shield hero force his Way into my room, He grabbed me and pinned him down." said the girl as She come closer to Motoyasu for comfort.
"hah?" said the not amused Takumi.
[Bull s-it!]
"and then the next thing I know he was tearing off all my clothes. Somehow I managed to escape, I run down to Motoyasu-sama who was staying in the same inn."
'me?'
[Bitch!]
"If she hadn't asked me to wait till dawn and call the knight, I would have gladly cut you down!" spoke Motoyasu.
'To begin with, I don't even know her...'
"To think the cardinal shield hero would create the greatest sin of the country."
"In melmerarc, even attempted sexual assault is punished by death." spoke one of the King subordinate.
'me with her..? Hahaha... this isn't funny."
"If you aren't the hero you will be executed at once." said the king.
'somehow... it's pissed me off...'
[My King is telling the truth!]
"I did no such thing, in the first place..."
The knights outside the room has prepared the fake evidence. They only the signal.
"who in their right mind want to sleep with that bitch!" spoke Takumi.
The room become quit for a while because of it. The Knight that holding Takumi increase his strength.
"y-y-YOU! HOW DARE YOU!?" spoke the king.
"How dare you said that to a girl!!!" spoke Motoyasu
[Burn!]
Almost Everyone on the room throw insult toward him.
'Shut up.'
"as I thought we shouldn't have summoned the shield...!!"
'even I...'
WARNING! DARK AURA IS RISING!
'Keitaro... Ma...ri..'
CAPACITY EXCEEDING THE LIMIT...
"punishment, He should be-"
[OVERFLOW ACTIVATED]
"SHUT UP! ALL UP YOU SHUT THE HELL UP! YOU PEOPLE SPOUT WHATEVER THING YOU JUST BECAUSE I KEEP BEING QUIT! IN THE FIRST PLACE I NEVER ASKED TO BE SUMMONED INTO THIS CURSED PLACE! DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I WANTED TO RETURNED BACK HOME RIGHT NOW, HAH!? I TRIED TO THINK POSITIVE, AND ACCEPT THIS ROLE YOU GAVE ME! AND NOW, YOU PEOPLE ACCUSED ME FOR RAPING THAT THING! IN THE FIRST PLACE WHO WANTED TO SLEEP WITH IT! JUST THINKING ABOUT MAKE ME WANT TO PUKE! IPREFERSLEEPINGWITHMARIRATHERTHAN He-"
DARK AURA DROPED, OVERFLOW WILL BE SHUT DOWN
'areh, did I said something strange just now... uwah, how embarrassing.' thought Takumi as he covered his face.
'hmm? why with the silent?'
Fallen nobles, the trembling knights, the pale king are what Takumi saw when he returned to his sense and looked at what he did.
Dark Aura, a passive skill granted by the Delta shield. Inflict Fear on the targeted victims. Dark Aura with high capacity could affect someone who aren't a target, So be cautious.
Overflow, a passive skill which unleashed when Dark Aura capacity are exceeding the limited parameter. Inflict Fear on the surrounding are indiscriminately.
The heroes seems are a bit out of breath, but other than that nothing really happened. Is this perhaps because of their legendary weapon?
The girl on the other hand, looks like She piss herself... perhaps She's received more trauma compared to others.
not...
The true victim of this skill is the one who held Takumi down. The poor Knight... as he is the closest and directly touching Takumi.
He saw it..
White.
A creature of pure white surrounded by Blue fire.
It sit right on the Knight side... the pressure that it give was So heavy... It's So heavy as if it's told him, that he will regret for ever being born into this world.
And before the Knight realize it, It's stare into his eyes. No... it's stare Straight into His soul.
"Umm... are you okay?" Takumi asked him.
After this incident, the knight stopped being a Knight, quit the believe of Three Heroes... and never seen again.
Happy End~
[Sasuga, waga Ou yo~.]
"Huh?"
So That's the end of this chapter~
For anyone who know Inui Takumi... He always tried to not get near other people because He scared he will hurt them... the biggest reason for that is Mari incident case.
He might be act rude and uncaring of other, but inside He's kind and always tried to help others... Typical Tsundere xP
He usually blaming himself when people near him got hurt... heck, he also gladly change place with death Kaixa on Heisei vs Showa the movie.
Tho... He's prepared to killed others when Mari's life is on the line. UwU
So Yeah, He will never hate the world, which might be the reason why Curse series Unsealed itself.
So how the hell am I supposed to slip dark emotion, Well That's why The King Series was born.
King series Shield are consist of The Belt that Have been Used by him before, Faiz and Delta.
Delta shield was born to give Takumi a bit of dark side... since Mari wasn't Here to do the Job.
In the 555 series, the Delta belt can be used by normal Human. But, at the cost of changing their personality and the obsession toward the belt. It also give them power even when they didn't use the belt. NOICE...
Yeah, I know it won't affect Orphnoch, so I Have to change it bit So it will affect him temporary, when He's pissed or something... the point is... it's for the plot... Tho he will returned to his sense when he embarrased or such.
Faiz Shield, it will unlock all of His Faiz Gears ability and the source of all His rider skill such as Exceed Charge.
I don't remember Takumi ever wear Kaixa belt... So Kaixa shield might or might not appears.
Psyga and Orga Shield won't appeared since I don't reall remember their ability except flying, shooting, and laser sword... Awakening form had all that So they might be out until I can think of ability for them.
That's it, Sorry if there's bad grammars and OOCness from the character.
