Uhm…. At first I plan to release this faster but… remembering I have to post the update every month, I held on and do as I plan before. Then I just realize it's nearly the end of February… I am soooo fucked up. Teehee~
And before everything else.. I have to remind for those who still following the story. This story is becoming long and longer and I will break it down into three arcs, though I will still update this under the same title (so lazy of me :d)
I won't mention anything in the 1st arc, but the 2nd arc will be LawLu (I did mention it in chapt 15th).
Well, that's for now~
Enjoy~~!

CURSED or BLESSED [17] : How to Teach Your Demon
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Hmm hmm! That's right! Don't let the tower hit you. It's hurt so much. Ahhh! Pull back pull back! Enemies attack!" Luffy shouted beside him.
"Gosh! Calm down, will you? Don't shout so loud." Law moved further while pushing Luffy further from him, preventing his ear not to accidentally deafen.
"Ahh! Don't let your guard down! Luffy quickly pulled his phone back, setting the device to be in front of Law again. "Aww Fuck! Too bad you're dead. Shishishi!" laughed Luffy.
"Because you keep shouting into my ear, Chibi! Oh again! One more time." Law responded and touched the screen to move his character to defend their base.
"That one, that one has low HP! Catch him!" Luffy cheered, in which Law joined the mood – somehow.
"Aaahh~ such ruckus you make there." came a voice from upstairs. Both Luffy and Law quickly fixed their gaze to the source of the voice.
"Sanji!" Luffy exclaimed happily. Sanji was leaning on the railing on the third floor.
"Yo.. what are you- GEH! You!" Sanji quickly jerked, realizing who was been there with Luffy.
"Yeah, me. Got problem with it?" Law smirked, teasing the shocked blond.
"Actually, yeah. But it's not mine. Urgh!" Sanji groaned, while stepping down the stair, heading towards those noirettes who were now focused back onto their game.
"Luffy, you haven't told Zoro you know." Sanji reminded the smaller man, he was worry indeed.
"Ah you right. Where is he right now?"
"Out. Zeff asked him to go buy some ingredients and…., oh he maybe now is searching for his way back." Sanji sighed.
"Ahahaha~~ expected."
"Well then, I won't bother you guys any further. If you need me, I'm in the kitchen. Have fun boys."
"Sure do."
"And don't do any funny business, Trafalgar-san." Warned the blond, "You wouldn't want to face his guardian."
"what guardian?" asked Law frowning.
"Shishishi~! He is not. He is all yours." replied Luffy with his usual grin on his face. Sanji jerked and quickly ran from his exact spot, before his face heating up an obvious color.
"So, actually it's his lover but your guardian? I don't catch that."
"No. Zoro is our friend, his lover but they haven't made it official." explained the smaller noirette.
"Oh, I see then."
"Yeap! And don't mention this in front of Zoro by the way. He'll fuckin eat you, and I don't want that." Luffy added pouting.
"Oh wow! That's sick yeah."
"He is. So, you good with this game?"
"Think so."
"Then let's play together. Just use the hero you suitable with. I'll back you up."
"Oh? We can play together? How?"
"Wait here, I borrow Sabo's." with that Luffy jumped over the couch and ran up towards the second floor. Law eyed the vigorous boy who was opening the door – connecting to Sabo's room he guessed – without knocking,
"LUFFFYYY!" oh here came the shout. Law cringed from the thundering voice. Oh, his brother sure was mad as hell. Then the door closed. Minutes later the boy went out again with a bump on his head, stepping back to the stair and downed towards Law. The black head eyed him, fighting hard a chuckle which was threatening to let loose from inside. And a pouting Luffy wasn't helping him at all. He inhaled a long breath, and let it out in an instant.
"So what happened?" Law asked, somehow managing to keep his flat face and uninterested.
"He threw a chair to me." He pouted, explaining while rubbing his left forehead.
"I can't blame him, you didn't knock."
"But that didn't mean he need to throw me with a fucking chair." Grumbled the noirette, protruding his lower lips even more. Suddenly Law gritted his teeth hard, still trying to hold in a laugh.
"He- pfft.. threw a c-chair?" Law didn't even look to Luffy.
"Yeah! A freakin wooden chair and- wait.. are you laughing at me?" scowled the smaller boy, jerking his head to see his new friend.
"'M not." He answered curtly, biting his lower lip.
"You're not lying?"
"No." Law replied, somehow managed to calm himself more. Luffy puffed both of his cheek like an angry puffer fish, and let out a cute growling sound, which Law found it endearing. Uh, WHAT?! Ende- WHAT?! He just couldn't even think about that despicable word! How could he even think about this human and that word even related. NO. fuckin. Way. in the tenth hell! Oh my fuckin FUCK!
"Fine then. Let's play." Luffy continued, unlocking Sabo's phone and tapped the 'Fighting Legend' icon game, jerking the demon who was drown in his own thought.
"Torao?"
"Ah! Yeah, let's play. Let see how good you are." Challenged Law, trying to hide his surprise.
"You have no idea how good I am." Luffy snickered. And the two noirettes started to indulge into their game.
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Wow! You seriously take this long to come back?" Sanji stole a glance and quickly set back his focus on the chopping board, skillfully slicing some carrots. Zoro growled while putting his groceries onto the table.
"Shut up! It's not my fault they keep move the building.
"It's not them. It's you, kuso marimo."
"Wh-what do you-"
"It is you who always getting lost, oh gosh! You don't even notice that? Kuso aho*1!"
"Hmph! You have no idea."
"Oh really? I could finish your chore like for only an hour." teased the blond while the green head was unpacking those groceries.
"Is that a challenge?"
"If that's what you need."
"Oh, you'll regret this."
"Or not?" Sanji stopped his chore, set himself facing to the Vill, and brought his hand to his waist, standing with all of his weight propped to one of his foot.
"You mean I will be?" Zoro turned back to face the Nesatios too.
"That will do." The vampire snickered cunningly. Because he just knew he would win this, no space for argue. One of Zoro's eyebrow squinted up, did he just a see a cute little devil? A cute little devil who was teasing him and needed to be dev- Oh this was suck! What had his mind play him with? Zoro mentally slapped himself. But he just didn't want to let him slip so easily, so he did the only thing he could think of it.
"Oi, kuso cook! I'm hungry." With that Zoro moved closer to the blond.
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"I don't know you have this kind of talent, Torao." Luffy beamed, looking up to his new founded partner.
"You have no idea." Torao made a quick leer and back to his phone. His character was in 'Sickening' streak and he didn't want that streak to be over, because it felt good to hear that sound. Sickening!
"We have to play again after this. I'll use my best hero. See if you can beat that." Luffy grinned.
"Why not? Show me what you can do."
"I like challenge!" Giggled Luffy.
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Where are those boys?" Zeff asked his daughter who was just finished to clean the café bar.
"Luffy and Sabo?"
"Yeah. I haven't seen them after lunch."
"Ah, Sanji said they have guests, so.. it maybe best not to bother them."
"But it's already four."
"It's monday, so I'm sure we can handle everything." Makino smiled, reassuring his father, "Beside we still got Ussop and Brook and Patty and Carne and the others." She added, kissing her father cheek.
"Hnnh! Make them work twice hard tomorrow."
"Ahahaha~~ sure you can."
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Mmnh.." Sanji whimpered unable to feel his leg any longer. This damn Vill just sucked his Esenta too fuckin much, he could no longer stand still without getting this funny feeling in his heart and his leg and his.. ehm.. crotch? Eh? Did it feel like this before? Sanji grip on the brim of the table was getting weaker as his legs starting to feel like jelly. To make things worse, this fuckin beast didn't stop his meal at all. The worst was somehow his tongue was all over his lips and successfully intruded his slightly parted mouth. Though Sanji himself couldn't tell whether he hated it or he wanted for more. Because as much as he wanted to shove this fuckin sexy beast, the blond somehow needed to circle his slender arms around Zoro's neck, oh it would be heav- DAMN what was that?! All of this was because his mind was already numbed from the skillful hot tongue inside his mouth and the swirling sweet comfortable scent around them. One of Zoro's hand was propping on the table behind Sanji, while his other hand was cupping that pale cheek of the blond. The most annoying thing - or might be not - was where he put his left leg. It was comfortably place between Sanji's jelly like legs. Close enough to touch Sanji's yet excruciating enough not to. The Nesatios hardened his grip on the table more, afraid if he let them loose it would be all over the green head.
"Ma-rimo.." the blond slipped out another whimper, which was still being ignore by the Werewolf who was still devour, uhh, eating him.
"Lu-mmh.. Luffy's fri- mmn.. end here- mmnn..." Sanji struggled to speak his mind out with all this fuckin eating things. It was hard - really. But the green head still didn't stop.
"Mari-..mho.. sto-"
"Oi Zoro, Zeff-san asks me to-" Ussop suddenly barged in, just to accidentally saw the men were in their heated up make out session, or did he just saw it right? Because in seconds, the Farligenete head already banging on the corner of the table, while Sanji twirled in panic to continue his chore.
"Do I... Bother you?" Asked Ussop cringing in fear.
"N-no! Its nothing Ussop. I'll ask him later to, what does Zeff want?"
"Bring those vegetables to him? Uhmm.. No worry. If you guys busy, I'll take it to him." Ussop said, mechanically walked to take those vegetables in the grocery bags and out from the kitchen café as soon as possible, he had no courage to look around because, a deep threatening growl was ready resounding in the air, which he needed not to guess what was the source.
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Are you ready for the second round?" challenged the smaller youth.
"Are you?"
"I will never back down from a challenge. Shishsishi~!" Laughed Luffy. After some minutes of waiting another player to join in, they both set their status to 'Ready'. And suddenly, something caught Luffy's attention. He frowned deeply. By instinct, Law realized Luffy uneasiness.
"What?"
"This two player, their ranks like sooo fuckin high! We need to be careful about this two."
"What are their names again?"
"General Omomi and... what is that? NoBikiniPls? Why using such a funny name, Ahahahahahah!" Luffy laughed, clapping his feet, yeah Feet! Together.
"So how great are they?"
"I don't know. They are already in Legend rank, I just reach GrandMaster yesterday." Luffy shined.
"Oh there's ranking now?"
"Yeap! But because you haven't level up yet, the rank match is still out of reach. But fear not, after you reach level 6, it will be open for you. I'm sure you'll reach GrandMaster in no time. But by the time you reach it, I'll already in Legend rank. Shishishsihi~~"
"Well, let's see about that one." Law smirked.
"Shishi~ but first you have to buy a phone first. That den-den mushi is also cute, but you can't play this with that."
"You right. I'll ask that idiot later then."
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Noooo! NO no! NONONONONO! Back! Run back Torao, don't look back! Just- Awww! He got you too."
"No shit! They two are like… whow! How can they do that? I didn't even see him coming to back the other up."
"That's a legend rank for 'ya. Their tactic is absolutely amazing. Wow! No dead? And the other got only two deads? They are crazy!" Luffy praised the two rampaging characters, while waiting himself to be respawned.
"Such skill. I wonder if the others are even needed in the team? They were just like, hello? Where are they? Jungling? Pilling up money? Your teammates are fighting here." Sighed Law, responded by a good laugh from Luffy.
"Sometimes, teaming up with a powerful friend do make a game seems too easy. Maybe they are bored?"
"Well you might hit the point."
"Shishishi~~ I hope our team manage to hold on. Ah yes, gonna give cheering to them." Luffy quickly tapped the chat box and started to type.
"C'mon guys, don't give up! Stick and we can kick them." Luffy muttered while typing in the same time, with a tongue poking out, he was so damn cute from Law's point of view. Uh cute? Well yeah, he wasn't denying this time. Luffy could be cute and annoying in the same time. Yeah, this Chibi sure was cute and Law agreed.
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"So, what are you saying just now about Luffy?"
"You're asking that now?"
"Well yeah! Because someone interrupted my lunch."
"Geez! You really are a moss head idiot! Luffy's friend comes. And he is in the living room playing game with your little monkey."
"Oh.." Zoro answered curtly, before abruptly jerked his head towards the blond's back and furrowed his eyebrows deeply, 'He what?"
"playing in the liv-"
"No! with a friend? WHO?"
"see, I know you didn't pay attention. It's a man call Trafalgar.. Law? If I remembered correctly."
"Tra- Trafalgar?! A- ARE YOU SERIOUS?!" Zoro wailed, his only eye widened in utter shock. To said Zoro didn't believe Sanji was out of question, because how could Sanji mention that name, if the guy itself didn't appear in front of him – them! This was a fuckin strange coincidence. First a Nesatios, now another Farlig?
"Wh- you know him? don't tell me he-"
"Uhh! Yeah! Yeah, it's Trafalgar but, how come they became acquaintance?"
"I don't know. But we met him in Logue Town, that was the reason why we forgot to buy anything for my beautiful Angel Makino-schwan~~ ❤" Sanji quickly turned into his swooning mode, in which Zoro didn't know whether to kill the blond, or himself. Because! It was fuckin annoying and irritating! And Zoro didn't like that fuckin blond swooning around for somebody other than him- uh.. what was he going to say? Himself? No right? It was a stupid delusional thought right, RIGHT?
"Anyway, what's about him?" Sanji continued.
"Hhhh.. I don't know it will come this fast." Zoro sighed, not answering the blond's question. Sanji just arched one of his curly eyebrow, curious.
"Well, you might also have the right to knows." The green head continued.
"I could?"
"I told you, didn't I? You're one of us now. So yeah, you sure have that privilege. And stop being so decorous around me, seriously."
"Wh-what? I'm not!"
"Come on, I know it just well. I did that too once. So of course, I know." He said while patting the blond shoulder calmly.
"You did? But-"
"Tell you later. We have a lot to do now." Zoro said, casually dropping the subjects.
"But hey-!"
"Anyway.. do something about your lips. They're swollen." Added the Vill, giving Sanji a sexy smirk over his shoulder before turning back on him and walked away. The Vampire quickly put a hand on his mouth, covering his lips and reddening two tones darker. This shit head moss brain seriously danger for Sanji 'ssanity. He was soooo fuckin presumptuous and annoying, but somehow Sanji was attracted to him, all his idiocy, his attention, his self-denial. Oh gosh! This might be his new cursed, though somehow, he liked it this time.
* HnO HnO HnO HnOHnOHnOHnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO HnO *
"Go! Goo Torao! Just a little bit moree..! Use your second skill, sec- yeeeey! You kill him!"
"Uh.. yeah somehow I manage. But- why you die?"
"Uuh... That Omomi is so tricky, it's hard to kill and he got me."
"Haha... So much for an expert like you." Teased Law, which responded with a pout from Luffy.
"Torao! He's coming to you! Be careful!" Luffy warned the other noirette.
"Uh.. serio- fuck! Where is our friends?"
" Hold on! I'm coming! Don't die yet."
"How the- awkkh! His defense is so troublesome."
"Comiingg! Be sure to active all your skill. I'll hit it from behind."
"I don't-"
"Oi! You guys!" Zoro suddenly appeared from the next building, approaching the noirettes who were so focused on the game.
"Not now Zoro! We're playing! And we are fuckin strug- AAAHHH! TORAO, pull back, back! Retreat! Don't let him, aahh... Good God."
"Phew~ that was close. Ehh! The tower! Defense, def- fuck!" With the cursed, their last defensive tower crumbled into rubble.
"Shiiittt that is our last defense!" Chided Law.
"Ahahaha! You sure are peeved aren't you Law?" Luffy laughed.
"Oyy! You two bastards! Don't ignore me." Grumbled the green head.
"What happen, Zoro?" Asked Luffy at last, noticing the beast was already in front of them, crossing his arms.
"I don't like to ask about random matter, but who is this?"
"Ah yes, this Torao. Torao, this is Zoro. Sanji's lover. Shishishi~~" teased Luffy.
"For the tenth time, Chibi! My name is Trafalgar."
"And for the hundredth time, Torao is still better." Luffy grinned from ear to ear.
"Trafalgar, eh? I don't feel like interrupting you guys now, so, can I go your place when I'm available?"
"Wh- eh? And why is that?"
"Just say, I need to talk to you in private." Zoro deadpanned. His face was so serious, even Luffy frowned with uneasiness.
"Can't you talk about it now?" Law asked with equally serious face, because as explained before, he would return it thrice better.
"I wish, I could. But, it's not a good time."
"I don't promise you anything, though." Law answered finally, after a long pause in which they were exchanging cold glare to one another and Luffy was confused in the between them.
"WH-what is this all about?" asked Luffy, "should I be worry about this?"
Zoro sighed and made a quick glance towards his best friend.
"You should. This all connected to you. And him." Zoro stated, making both of the noirettes eyes widen in utter shock. One because he knew nothing, the other was because he was hiding something. Something which was the beginning of everything.
