Hey guys! It's fanfic31 here with another chapter of The Purple Dragon of Darkness.
Outside the clubroom
"Astronomy Research Club?" I read the words plastered on the sign on the door out loud. Kanou-kun did not reply. Instead, he just opened the door before allowing me to go in first.
The room's interior was that of the old Victorian style. It has old looking walls with wooden lining and the floor was made of marble.
In the room was two lavender classical couches with another wooden classical brown coffee table between them. Behind those furniture was a big wooden study desk and is also classic looking with another classic looking chair behind the desk. The chair has wheels at the bottom making it a movable chair and also has the lavender colored cushion just like the couches.
Sitting on one of the couches was a turquoise haired girl eating a piece of youtai. She has shoulder-length turquoise hair with a teal colored cat pin pinning her fringes. Her small body wears the Kuoh Academy girls' uniform without the cape. Seeing me watching at the young girl, Kanou-kun spoke up.
"This girl is Nekota Toraa, a valued member of the Astronomy Research Club and is also a first year. Her small body and cute face but yet quiet personality gained her the reputation of 'school mascot'." Hearing the introduction of herself, Nekota-chan turned around and gave a slight bow before continuing to eat her youtai.
"Ara ara, am I being unnoticed?" a voice spoke from another door in the clubroom. I turned to look at the new person. She looks like a third-year from her mature looking face and soft brown eyes. She has black hair tied into a bun with long straight hair flowing out of the bun. Her figure was slim but the most noticeable part was a large assets that rivals Amanda-sempai's which I saw earlier in the morning. Wait, why am I thinking about that morning?! I swear to God that I am not a pervert. Ouch! That hurts.
The girl walked up to me and introduced herself:
"My name is Jasmine Yasanou and the vice-president of the Astronomy Reserch Club. Nice to meet you." I blushed real hard when she suddenly held my hand.
"So you are my kouhai. Your skin sure is soft, Hitaru Tabaski."
"Stop teasing him Jasmine." A voice said in an annoyed manner. I turned to look who was there. Turns out it was Amanda-sempai using a towel to dry her wet hair while coming out of…. a shower?! There is a shower inside a club?! Just how important is this club that the school allows them to have a shower inside their clubroom?!
"Hello Hitaru-kun. Glad to see you can make it. Sorry that I was taking a shower before. I didn't had the chance to take it after leaving your place."
"Oh yeah… it's okay… I guess."
Amanda-sempai giggled at my reaction and told me to take a seat so I sat with Kanou-kun while Jasmine-sempai sat beside Nekota-chan. I thought it would be awkward to sit with the girls. Amanda-sempai sat on the edge of the desk.
"We would like to officially welcome you into the Astronomy Research Club." I was dumbfounded for a second.
"Wait. I'm part of this club now?"
"Yes you are. Now back to where I stopped. In the human world, I am referred to as Amanda Grifferson but my real name is Amethyst Grimerson, daughter of Lord Jeffer Grimerson and next heiress of the House of Grimerson." I gave her a blank look.
"You should know that the club's name is just a front, right?" she stopped and looked at me, waiting for my reaction. I slowly nodded.
"Good. You should know this one thing too. We are all devils, not just myself but also you." I was… surprised. I never expected Kanou-kun to be a devil.
"Kanou-kun? You are a devil?" He looked sheepishly at me.
"Yeah I am but I couldn't tell you since you were not part of us then." Just then, everyone stood up before bat-like wings jutted out of their backs. Then, Amethyst-sempai snapped her fingers. I felt my skin rip open but did not felt any pain. What the mother-fuckin shit is this?! I have the wings too?! I looked at my wings and then the club members' wings back and forth in awe. Suddenly, all their wings went back into their backs. Amethyst-sempai snapped her fingers again. My wings suddenly went back into my back like the others.
"The wings indicate that we are devils. But the ones that attacked you yesterday and the day before was different. They are fallen angels."
"Fallen angels? I thought they only existed in stories." I replied in utter disbelief.
"No they don't. The world of supernatural are all real. Angels, devils, fallen angels, youkai… you name it and I confirm to you that they are real. Fallen angels are angels that once served God but because of their 'impure' thoughts, they fell from Heaven. They have the same mission as the angels, killing us devils but only in a more sinister way than pure angels." She stopped and looked at me. I was giving her the 'what the fuck?!' look. She chuckled at my reaction and continued.
"Long time ago, the devils, fallen angels and angels had a war. It is known as the Great War. During that war, all three sides lost many of their leaders. The devils lost most of their pure-blooded devils and most importantly lost the original four Maous: Lucifer, Leviathan, Beezabulb and Asmodeus. The war stopped with no side winning. So after the war, the devils went into panic as their leaders are gone but soon decided to choose four pure-blooded devils that are as powerful as the original four. They are Lavender Grimerson, my brother, as Lucifer, Alinelle Arasake as Leviathan, and Yoson Astaroth as Beezabulb and Quipso Glasya-Labolas as Asmodues."
1,2,3 BOOM
"Whaaaaaaaaaat! One of the Four Great Satans is your brother?!"
"Ufufu. Our kohai looks shocked." Jasmine-sempai and Kanou-kun giggled. Nekota-chan remained quiet.
"Yes, that's right. Onii-sama is my the current Lucifer. Since he is chosen as the current Lucifer, I had to take his place to inherit the House. What's wrong? You looked overwhelmed."
"Well I guess cause I am. You are talking about some supernatural stuff here. I was once a human." I empathized on the word 'was'. Amethyst-sempai narrowed her eyes.
"I doubt so."
"What? What do you mean you doubt so?"
"Remember what I said in the morning about how we slept last night to your Onee-san?" I blushed when I remembered how we slept last night but nodded when she spoke of Onee-san.
"Right after I said that, I cast a memory-erasing spell that works only on full-blooded humans but it didn't work on your Onee-san."
'That's strange. Don't tell me Onee-san is a …?' I thought before Amethyst-sempai continued my thoughts.
"It means she is a supernatural or a half-breed." Holy God what have this world come into?! Ouch! Damn devil rules.
"Are you okay? Why are you clutching your head?"
"It's nothing. I just said 'Holy God' in my head. Ouch!" I clutched my head in pain again. Amethyst sempai-giggled at the sight.
"Now, back to the fallen angel topic. You remembered Choko Hisa right?" My changed to a downcast expression. My first girlfriend… tried to kill me…
"I don't want to talk about it."
"I know it hurts to think about it but you need to know." I looked up at her but kept my sad face.
"Do you want to know why she tried to kill you?" I slowly nodded my head.
"It's because you have something that might be dangerous to them. It's called a sacred gear."
"Sacred gear?" I tilted my head. Kanou-kun answered my question.
"Sacred gears are items that are bestowed upon humans from God of the Bible. There are sacred gears that are so powerful that can even kill a God or a Maou and those are called Longinus but we will talk about those later."
"Okay, Hitaru. Time to unlock your sacred gear." I stood up.
"How do I do it?"
"First, think of a part of you that makes you feel the strongest." A part of me that makes me feel the strongest huh? How about my voice? I mean it's weird but at least it should work, right?"
"Good, now keep thinking about it and feel your desire in wanting your sacred gear to activate. Sacred gears are items that responds to their wielder's feeling." Thinking…
"Okay, open your eyes now." I did as she told me to.
Suddenly, my right arm glowed in purple light and grey light surrounded it while on my left hand, lights of gold and rainbow shaped itself into a curve. Soon, both lights on my hands died down to reveal a purple gauntlet with a grey jewel embedded in the center of my palm and two silver metal sticks protruded out of the gauntlet on my right arm while on my left arm hold a golden archery bow with elaborate designs. At the center of the bow was a mini rainbow jewel.
"Can someone explain to me what the fuck is happening here?" I asked while looking at the new additions on my right arm and left hand.
"A multiple sacred gear user?" Everyone was looking at me. No let me rephrase that. They were looking at my sacred gear. No, gears.
"Hello? Earth to everyone? Hello?" Soon, everyone dropped out of their daze. I sighted and asked them again.
"Can someone please explain what is going on here?"
{I'll be glad to.} A female voice came out of the rainbow jewel that startled everyone.
"Wh-who are you?" asked Amethyst-sempai in a trembling voice.
{Oh, I forgotten to introduce myself. My name is Rhiann. I am the soul living in this sacred gear, Golden Elementis or rather known as Bow of Elements. This staff consists of eight elements. I'll tell them later.}
"Okay… so Rhiann-san, umm… care to explain what is going on?" I asked while looking at the jewel.
{Of course. This boy is a multiple sacred gear user. He has the Golden Elementis, me, and one of the thirteen longinus, the Supreme Booster which contains one of the two Heavenly Dragons, Shadow.}
"What?! So this is not just a Twice Critical?" asked Amethyst-sempai.
{No, it is not. This just takes the form of Twice Critical as its first form. However, the dragon inside of him is still asleep so only I'm awake.}
"Thanks Rhiann-san. How do I dismiss you and the other sacred gear? I'm not used to carrying this two things." I asked Rhiann-san as my hands started to weight down from the weight of the staff. Since it is the Golden Elementis, I'm guessing this is made out of pure gold.
"Just think about dismissing it and it will do so." This time is Jasmine-sempai who replied to me.
I focused on dismissing it and in a bright flash, the two sacred gears disappeared.
"Now that that is over, *sigh*, what's going to happen from now on Amethyst-sempai?" I asked curiously.
"Since you are part of this club now, you have to address me my 'bouchou'."
"I have to? Can't I call you by something else like just 'Amethyst-sempai' or something like that?"
"No, 'bouchou' sounds more fitting."
"Fine." I gave up.
"Good. I think it's time for you to do your first newbie devil job: handing out leaflets."
"Okay, what should I do?"
"Do you have a type of vehicle or something?"
"Uhh… I actually have one. It's a bicycle but I also have a motorcycle. Which one should I take?"
"Hmm... take the motorcycle. It should be faster and more convenient. Wait, are you even allowed to ride one?"
"Hehe… looks like I got caught." I rubbed the back of my head sheepishly.
On the streets
I was riding my bicycle on the streets with a sling bag full of the Grimerson's leaflets. I looked up the night sky and found my night view the same as I always have.
"Hmm… it didn't give me any different on my night view. Sad." I mumbled disappointedly. From young, I already has nocturnal eyesight. It's weird. But when I was reincarnated into a devil, my senses sharpen at night from before since I had good senses at night before I became a devil.
The clubhouse
"I am back!" I announced my grand arrival back from my devil job.
"Ah, you're back. Though it seems like you can go home now." Bouchou replied.
"Okay, bye!"
The next day
In the classroom
"How's your job yesterday, Tabaski-kun?" Kanou-kun asked as he placed his sat down on his seat beside me.
"It's fine I guess, though I prefer to make a contract with a human than handing out god-damn flyers. Ouch!
Girls in the class are basically screaming in excitement on me and Kanou-kun speaking to each other, saying things like "OMG! Is this Prince Charming Kanou-kun and Dazzling Prince Tabaski-kun having a lovey dovey conversation?" Ouch! Kanou-kun and I suddenly have headaches for few seconds. Geez, must she say 'oh my god'? It hurts my head. Ouch.
