"So what do you have to say for yourself, you insipid cunts?" Snarled the blond man, arms crossed as his very essence seemed to be made of menace.
The Swimming Club was prostrated before him, all bowing with their heads on the ground and shaking off the residual charge of electricity.
"We're very sorry Zakari-san!" They spoke in unison, begging for their collective lives. "It'll never happen again!"
"Bullshit!" Roared the Warlock, "You think I'll believe that shit! You fucking mongrels had the gall to attack your fellow students, what kind of fucking retards are you!? Did you expect to just get away with it? Well! Did you!?" Seeker seemed to grow in size along with his foul mood, as though feeding off the fires of his rage.
"Damn, he's really layin' into 'em." Saizou muttered, amongst the crowd of gathered students, several whispers were bandied about and it seemed the situation was rapidly spiraling.
"Should we step in?" Yukari asked, not used to seeing such vitriol explode from a single person.
"Are you kidding me?" Kurumu asked incredulously, "Let him keep going this is hot!" The Succubus looked about ready to start humping the fence separating her and her destined one.
"What madness is occurring here!?" A booming voice silenced the crowd, everyone turned to see several people garbed in black uniforms in various styles, they were led by an elfin man with long blond hair and sharp honey coloured eyes, he wore a coat over his uniform and looked about ready to gut someone.
"Who are you lot?" The enraged caster asked, Seeker's attention fixing firmly onto the yokai in charge.
"I am Kuyo. Head of the PSC. And I demand you explain this situation student." Spoke the man at the front of the pack firmly.
Zachary huffed and kicked the ground, making the mermaids flinch, "This little cesspit of sea hags thought it'd be a good idea to run wild on new members of the Swimming Club. Draining their life essence, now I may be an average guy but I like to think I can speak for everyone when I say I take exception to my life being stolen away."
Kuyo's sharp eyes immediately scanned the club, his lips being pulled into a snarl, "And how has the situation been dealt with, student?"
"I electrocuted the shit out of the lot of them. And made enough of a ruckus that someone would come to inspect what was going on." Even his body language seemed to have returned to a more relaxed state, "I trust you can handle it from here, Kuyo?"
The elfin man smirked at the foreigner, "Indeed, you've my thanks for your quick thinking. What is your name?"
"Zachary Waller, I'll leave you to it… if you need me I'm in Ms. Nekonome's homeroom so that's probably the best way to get ahold of me." The young man tucked his blazer under his arm and walked out of the area, giving a few passing glances to others in the PSC.
Goddamn some purple haired lassie had some intense underboob… Monster's were so scandalous.
He walked towards his group of friends and looked them all over, "I need some time to myself." He said quietly before walking away.
As the moody looking Warlock stalked through the club fair, his eyes kept flashing a stormy red colour, all gave him a wide berth and did their best to avoid his ire, rumours already spreading about what had occured in the Swimming Club, several more rang out questions on how the hell they were even allowed to have a club if it was a scheme to acquire life force.
Zachary walked straight up to the Occult Club and pinned one of them with his glare, the girl was a wispy looking thing with lifeless black eyes and a bland expression on her face, she had long black hair and wore a heavy looking scarf to cover the bottom half of her face.
"If I join your club can I practice my magic in peace?" He asked, skipping any potential for nonsense.
The girl looked at him, unflinching under his furious gaze, "Of course, we encourage all forms of mysticism. Other's in the Club are able to tell fortunes with great accuracy, some can predict abnormal weather conditions, others are able to tell you when you may die. You are very welcome to bring your expertise into our fold, Kouhai-san."
"Wonderful, will any of my potential club mates attempt to kill me or maim me in any form?" His arms were crossed and even with still dripping hair he gave an air of menace.
"Not after the display you put on, and certainly not if I say so." Scarf-Girl answered with a minute nod.
"Will you say so?" Questioned the young man, once more she nodded ever so slightly, "Marvelous. Sign me up."
"Sign here." Offered the girl, "I am Jian Jung. As I know what you are it's only fair that you know I am a Jiang Shi."
"Forgive my ignorance, I don't know what that is." Zachary admitted as he wrote down his name and signature.
"An animated corpse." Explained the girl, "A chinese zombie, in layman's terms."
"Good to know. Pleasure to meet you, Jian." The duo exchanged a handshake and on contact the Warlock had to note that her hands were indeed without any kind of heat, and how her fingers actually seemed to caress his palm as they seperated. "Look forward to working alongside you."
"Ditto. Feel free to explore the club room, we meet every day after school for an hour to speak about out findings, or bounce ideas off one another. I'm sure someone else within has experience with spells to some degree."
Zac nodded and ducked into the room, it was dark, as he expected, there were candles everywhere giving off a soft glow to the room, several desks had arcane scrawlings on their surfaces and the traditional pentagram sat in the centre of the room.
There was a distinct lavender smell to the room, most likely an incense of some kind, that was good Zac fucking loved lavender.
Several of his new club mates noticed his presence and nodded or gave a general greeting in his direction, he returned the effort before finding a spot to sit down and placing his blazer over the back of the chair and gingerly laying down his grimoire.
He took a moment to gather himself, his heart was beating like a raging storm. His first instinct when Tamao tried to drain him was get the fuck out but instead he went on autopilot and went Olympus on the mermaids.
"Would you like some tea?" Asked a ghost. He was completely transparent and wore a uniform, but had a black mark on his forehead, "It's fresh." He wore a small smile.
"I'd love some actually, thank you very much." Zachary said, his shoulders sagging as he let his troubles fall off for a moment.
The Ghost nodded and disappeared for a few minutes before coming back with a cup, and even a small cake. "I hope you enjoy."
The young man smiled up at the specter, taking a sip his taste buds were delighted, "Mm! This is beautiful, thank you again."
"If you need anything, don't hesitate to ask." The Ghost floated off and asked someone else if they needed something to nibble on.
Seeker's face popped up on the pages of the grimoire, "Master we have harvested a generous amount of life force from the heretics, Do you wish to unlock the next chapter of the book?"
The little system the duo had worked out with their Master was simple, in exchange for certain amounts of life force, Zac got access to more and more of the book. The first four chapters were free reign as they contained the basis for a true Warlock to play with and required great study, each chapter afterwards would require ten years total of life force, he could play it dangerous and sacrifice his own to get ahead quicker.
Or he could do the smart thing and just harvest it from others.
"I'd like you to unlock the next chapter, Seeker. Thank you." The young caster said quietly, as to not disturb anyone, the creatures red eyes flashed blue for a moment as the book felt heavier for a moment and then flipped across several dozen pages until it came to the fifth chapter.
Stage Five: Summoning
Ooh, that does sound useful.
An hour passed before he knew it, his new club leader came to his table and touched his shoulder, upon getting no response she peered over it to see what had interested him so, only to see nothing on the pages of the book he was reading, how confusing.
"Zachary-san." Mumbled Jian, her voice softening against her scarf.
"Hmmm?" He answered distantly.
"The club is closing for the day, would you mind assisting me in cleaning up?" The Jiang Shi asked the Warlock.
Zac seemed to come back to reality with that he slid his grimoire closed and latched it onto his belt, "Certainly." He looked up at her and smiled lightly.
He did notice that once again, her touched lingered on him. She pat his shoulder once more before nodding, "Come, I'll show you what to do."
They spent roughly twenty minutes together, setting the room straight. Moving all the desks to one side of the room, sweeping up and making sure that all the collected dust was disposed of, cleaning out the incense burners, and finally opening the windows fully to allow the room to aerate
"So tell me about yourself, Zachary-san. I'm quite curious." Admitted Jian as she sat on one of the desks, looking at him as he swept.
"What do you want to know?" Offered the Warlock in response, looking at her curiously.
"Where do you come from?" Questioned the Zombie.
"Australia, I was born in Queensland but recently moved to New South Wales." Informed the blond.
"Do you like your country?" She asked, tilting her head.
"I do, the people in charge could use a knocking down because they're a pack of retards but yes. I like my home. What about you?"
"I am was born in the country but have been moved to Beijing since my change." Explained the girl, gesturing to herself, "Do you wish to know how I became what I am?"
"Do you want to tell me?" Zac countered looking at her with a strange, sidelong glance. "Not many enjoy talking about their death, I'd assume."
"I do not mind, I was gunned down by a competitor to my father's business, we operated in the underbelly of several cities but it seemed that my father's enemies found where I and my mother lived." She answered, her expression remained unchanging, pitifull really.
"You have my sympathies." Zac said softly, his lips pulled down into a grimace, just imagining it unsettled him.
"My father's father was a warlock of some renown, but his skill at animating corpses is debatable." She continued, Zac took note that the chains on his belt jostled as he moved his legs to sweep more of the room, somehow that noise seemed more ominous than before, "I had to sacrifice much to return to this plane."
"May I ask what you had to give up, Jian?" He asked, not wanting to probe too far but admittedly very curious.
"You may." She said, nodding ever so slightly, "I had to give up the heat in my body, my emotions, and my ability to truly die every again… my body may stiffen and rot, but my spirit is forever shackled to this…" She presented a small opal necklace, it hummed with magical might, but he dared not keep his eyes on it for too long.
"So… you're locked out from everything… forever?" Zac could scarcely think of something worse, immortality without any of the perks!
"Just so." Affirmed the girl, "You may say that I was so quick to accept you into the club because you give off an aura much like my grandfather, forgive me for being selfish but your presence brings me… comfort."
The girl who apparently had no emotions hesitated as she explained this, Zachary looked her over once more, she tucked the necklace back into her cleavage and buttoned up her shirt.
"Is that why you sort of… linger when you touch me?" He questioned, figuring it best to get any awkwardness out of the way, he didn't really mind but he didn't want her to feel uncomfortable.
"Indeed. You are… warm, to me. I cannot really explain it." If she had any real facial muscles anymore Zac could almost assumed her nose would wrinkle as she tried to figure out the right words.
"And the scarf?" Instead of answering with words, she unwound it enough to reveal her face, her lower jaw seemed to be stitched on, her lips were chapped and lifeless, and her chin had a deep scar down to her throat.
"I do not wish to upset others with my appearance." Admitted the girl with a small shrug.
"For what it's worth you're a pretty young woman, stitches an' all." He said with a shrug, ever the man of weird fucking taste.
She actually paused at that, tilting her head in a very animalistic manor, "Really? Do you have an urge towards dead bodies, Zachary-san?"
"You're talking to me, as far as I'm concerned you're a young woman. I don't really care." He admitted finishing up his sweeping and stashing the broom and dustpan away in the closet, as he shut the door he turned and almost jumped as suddenly Jian was in front of him.
Her cold hands touched his cheeks, she stood motionless, she was about a head shorter than him, the top of her head just shy of his shoulders.
"May I hold you like this, occasionally?" Asked the young Jiang Shi, Zac just nodded, after having a Succubus do things that would make a pornstar envious, and a Vampire edge you with her love bites it was hard to be phased by anything anymore.
"I appreciate that, you may leave now. Thank you for your time." Zac waited for her to release his face before leaving.
Jian touched her scarred lips and hummed, "...Warm…" Was all she said.
Dorm: Evening
Zac sagged in relief at the sight of his door, time to just relax and enjoy some peace and quiet.
He opened the door and was greeted to the sight of the busty Succubus sprawled out on his bed in a seductive pose, wearing black lingerie, complete with a rose red garter belt and thigh-high stockings.
"I'm not getting sleep, am I?" Zac asked himself, Kurumu's grin turned predatory as her eyes carried a mischievous glint.
"Pretty good right?" She asked with a smug look, "Unlike most guys you don't seem to keep porn on you, so I had to think this little number up on my own."
"I prefer video over still images, regardless you look really good." Zac commented with a nod, closing the door behind him and locking it, "I gotta ask…" He tossed his blazer over his desk and placed his grimoire on top of it.
"Why do you do this?" He questioned, leaning against the wardrobe and crossing his arm.
"What do you mean, 'this'? I enjoy being with you." She questioned in turn, confused.
"No-no, I mean why me? I mean yeah, we get along well, I'm just curious as to why you decided to chase after me of all people." He asked again.
"I love you, you're my destined one." She got up and wrapped her arms around his waist, sinking into his chest and listening to his irregular heartbeat.
"That's a pretty bold statement." Zac said with a small, unconscious, laugh. "You don't know me that well, surely you can't love me."
"Of course I do, Succubae are creatures of love! When we find out destined one it's all we think about, nothing else matters!" Her delicate violet coloured eyes glimmered with intensity as she spoke, her state of dress aside Zac took this as fact, there was a certainty to her that he wasn't familiar with.
She grabbed one of his hands and placed it on her chest, "Feel this heart..? It only beats for you, no one else is worthy of it." She whispered softly.
"When I was growing up, my mother always told me to be on the look out for my Destined One, because they're the only ones we can have children with… even though my father is dead my mother has never looked anywhere else, he's all she can ever think about… I want that, I want that love…" Her eyes glistened as she looked up at him, a teary smile on her face, "And I found it."
Zac could hear his heartbeat in his ears, all the blood in his body seemed to roll like thunder through him, a fire seemed to blossom in his chest as the moisture in his mouth left him.
'Mother of mercy, what do I even say to something like that?' He thought, completely dumbstruck, so instead of words he opted to just pull her close and nestle his head in the crook of her neck, taking in her scent and squeezing her tightly.
Kurumu was on cloud nine, she could feel that fire, she could sense its indomitable presence in her love.
"Humans don't work like Succubus do… so even if I can't give you my everything this second, promise me you'll accept it when I have it for you?" He asked into her neck softly, he'd been in a handful of relationships in his life, he always fucked them up in one way or another but with god as his witness he would give this beautiful girl his all!
"Of course!" Whispered the Succubus, tears running down her face as a smile that could put the sun to shame lit up.
Outside a purple haired girl watched, "Ah… so sweet." She whispered, holding her cheeks as a blush lit up her pale cheeks, "I hope he likes the cold."
"C'mon you, if we're doin' this we're doin' it right." Muttered the young man as he picked up the girl and fell onto the bed, grinning as she crawled on top of him, their lips met and the Succubus crooned softly as she knotted her fingers into his hair.
Zac dragged his nails up and down her spine, making her arch into him without warning a long tail wrapped around his wrist and pulled it down to her plump rear, 'I don't remember her arse being this big…' Those thoughts, and any higher brain functioning were banished the second the young lady in question moved one hand from his hair and grabbed his crotch like it was a lifeline.
Kurumu loved how he jolted in her grasp, and thanks the heavens above that her mother sent her all she needed to know about minor transformations to help with seducing her man!
Knock-Knock-Knock
"Go away!" The duo shouted at who dared to interrupt the moment.
They heard an 'eep' and looked at eachother, the began laughing, somehow that was the funniest of things in the moment.
Pressing their foreheads against one another they looked into eachothers eyes, "You're too good for me…" Zac said softly, a smile on his face.
Kurumu grinned, "Well, I'll just have to get you into shape, won't I?"
Zac clicked his tongue, "Tsk-tsk-tsk, and how will you do that?"
His face coloured as Kurumu leant in and nipped at his neck, his most sensitive spot, just above the collarbone, "I have my ways."
Good thing he'd locked the door.
Next Morning: Homeroom
Arriving before the teacher had its perks, in the case of that day though Zac would have called it more a burden. It seemed that Kurumu's harem decided to follow her around, even without the hypnotism affecting them, and took any attention she gave him as a slight against them.
"Will you guys seriously fuck off, this is getting silly." Muttered the Warlock, not looking up from his grimoire, the Succubus happily sitting in his lap, seriously he didn't remember her ass being this plush but by god was he not going to complain, one hand on the book and one under her skirt, that's how he was playing it.
The blue haired girl flushed red as she nestled into his neck, sighing contently, as she made a shooing motion to her previous boy-toys, "Off you go, I don't need you anymore." She said with a wave.
"Kurumu-sama!" One said, as though struck in the heart, "How could you send us away for this… half-breed!?"
"He's basically a human! All he does is some flashy tricks!" Another said, equally as frustrated.
"What's there to see in him, when you've got us?" A shorter male asked, affronted.
"Because he's a monster in the sack!" She shot back with a smug grin, grabbing his crotch, which required reaching between her legs to do so, "And has a really long tongue."
To assist with this, Zac stuck his tongue out, it reached past his chin with ease.
"Hehe, nice." Saizou said with a chuckle, enjoying the show.
"Naughty…" Muttered Moka, her face red.
They all seemed to ignore Mizore and her giggling into her sleeve.
"That's it, we're takin' this outside!" Snarled the ring leader of the Ex-Harem.
"Alright." Zac said with ease, standing up and placing his semen demon on his seat, "Keep it warm for me." He kissed her cheek and looked up to the monster in human guise, "Lead the way."
"W-Wait seriously?" Asked the same teen.
"You want to start something, I'm happy to finish it." Said the Australian, about as flippantly and breezily as possible.
Saizou stood up behind him and put a hand on his shoulder, "Besides, if you wanna try it, you gotta go through me."
"Ah! I see, you're confident because your mongrel dog is ready to bite our heads off, is that it?" Snarked one of the boys in the back.
"Who the fuck said that!?" Snarled the Warlock, his voice like thunder, "You wanna fucking go cunt? I'll break your fuckin' legs and drag you across a yard of glass you little fuckbaby, I'll rip out your eyes and make you watch while I fuck your dad, then I'll convince the faggot to go to gay camp and while he's guilting himself into an early grave I'll become your new dad, and then I'll fuck your mum, I'll fuck your whole family! I'll KILL YOUR WHOLE FAMILY YOU WANNA FUCKING GO MATE!?" At that point Saizou was holding the frothing Australian back, trying not to laugh at the tirade whilst also trying to look imposing was a lot harder than he thought it'd be.
All of the ex-harem lads took several steps back looking pale before one ran off, screaming, this started a chain reaction that sent the rest of them running and screaming "We're sorry!"
"Not good enough you little bastards!" Roared the blond male, Kurumu stood up and pinched his cheeks, getting his attention, it seemed to remove any mood in a second, "Yes my dear?" He asked with a chuckle and a smile.
"You get an A for theatrics and a B+ for execution, I could have done without imagining you and any of their dads, bleh." She stuck her tongue out and gagged as Saizou released him.
"W-wait, that was all fake?" Moka asked, thoroughly bewildered.
"Shhh, they don't need to know that." Zac said, winking at the vampire who sweatdropped and sighed.
All of the males in the classroom immediately stood up and bowed before him, "Teach us your ways!"
"Good Morning students~" Ms. Nekonome greeted as she walked in with a bright smile, she blinked, showing off her bright blue eyes, at the display, "Ara… what did I miss?"
End of Chapter
Hope you guys enjoyed reading as much as I enjoyed writing, I got a big kick out of this one.
I'm stuck somewhat though, both Kurumu and Mizore are so focused on Tsukune in cannon because they can actually reproduce with him, Mizore could technically do it with anyone but chooses him, so technically speaking would they even be adverse to the idea of sharing, what's the 4.1.1 on Monster social etiquette when it comes to that stuff?
I dunno, I'll think about it more. It seems sort of egotistical if I did it since I'm using myself as a character but maybe I'm overthinking it.
See you all next time :)
Raxychaz!
