Chapter 1
"Finally!" a tall person with a grey armor said standing on the edge of some skyscraper, looking at the night sky that was full of stars. The man had medium straight hair that was waived by the wind along with the grey tunic that was covering his back. The eyes of the man were similar to pure gold, "The first seal is destroyed, and we can start our plan."
"Celebrations are premature." the person heard a cold and straight voice behind him; the voice didn't belong to a human as it had some vibrating notes with a rale in it, "Five are still remain." the second person did a brief pause, and then added, "They still can be fixed."
"You're right Celine, but it is just a matter of time when they all are destroyed." the man chuckled.
"Don't get ahead yourself." the cold voice said again.
"What do you mean?" the person asked Celine like he didn't understand what Celine was talking about.
"Your fight, with Dokboq and Stained Spear." Celine merely responded.
"Ah, you mean that!" the man exclaimed when he heard the names, "Don't worry I learnt a lot since that occasion." the man smiled raising his head towards the sky, putting his hand onto his cheek.
"I hope so." Celine said with the same cold voice. Then she saw how h lowered his head and started to watch at the streets that were pretty far from him.
"Now let's return to our mission." the man turned his head to Celine, he could see a person who was wearing a pure white armor, the armor of this person reminded Samurai's one. Celine's face was covered with a metal helmet with a mask that looked like a demon face, "What should we to do?"
"To find a help." Celine answered slowly.
"Ah, yes." the man seemed to remember something, "We are supposed to find some gangs which would cooperate with us." Celine nodded, "Well, I think we should split up, it will be much easier for both of us to investigate this damn Tokyo Kingdom."
"Agreed." Celine responded, "The direction?" Celine asked the person.
"Well, I'll investigate North, and you'll take South then, there's must be times when I'm going North." the man chuckled, Celine said nothing but quickly jumped from one building onto another one, "Forgot to ask her about hunters! Let's do this next time then." and then he covered himself with his tunic and disappeared from the skyscraper where he was standing.
After a second, he appeared in the lively street, where were lots of different demons and humans. The man could see demons, humans that belonged to criminal, as they were walking freely in these streets. He also could see demons with slaves on the sides of the street, some demons and even people came to these demons in order to know how much does it cost to have some merry time with the poor things. The slaves' face were suppressed, they lost all hope to return home. The man wasn't interested too much in what was being happening around him, his eyes were full of contempt and repulsion, to everything what was around him. However he noticed that some of them were watching at him, because of his attire, there was no one who was wearing such strange and pretty old clothes as he was. However it didn't bother him too. The man preferred to turn right and to enter a bystreet.
The bystreet was lit poorly instead of the street that the person decided to leave behind, 'Well maybe I'll be able to find something here?' he thought as he was continuing his way. The man didn't like that this lane was lit badly, but still he could feel that someone was spying on him, the man smiled and lowered his pace. He decided to show that he is not afraid of his persecutors. However the steps didn't stop and the man understood that they are not going to stop. He was thinking what to doing this situation, to stop or let them catch him up. While he was thinking what to do someone grabbed him for his shoulder. 'Ah, everything goes simpler than I thought.' and the one who grabbed him made the man to turn to these subjects.
"Hey, man!" the man saw a massive demon in front of him, as he could see it was an ork, however it was pretty big instance for them, "Why are ya dude yourself up like that? Are ya from da fashion show?" the crowd laughed at such remark.
The man smiled too, and decided to make fun out of the crowd too, "At least I'm not look like a mere cadger."
"What'd ya say!" it seems that the man's twit worked perfectly as they stopped they're laughing, "D'ya realize who ya're talking with?"
"Enlighten me." the man merely chuckled, but suddenly his collar was grabbed by a massive ork's hand.
"Hey, boss we've got a cocky one this time, don't you think that he needs some lessons in manners?" a werewolf that was behind that ork said coming closer.
"It is a bad idea." the man warned the crowed, "And on your place I would run away."
"Still, yapping something?" the ork continued, "Are ya from Taimanin?"
"No, but I'm from those that it absolutely a bad idea to show off with." the man warned them again.
"And how d'ya proclaim ya'self." another demon asked the man.
"A Vampire King." the man merely responded, and then heard a loud whoopee.
"A Vampire King?!" the leader of the gang shouted through laughing, "Ya don't look like Edwin Black at all!" the man responded nothing; he squeezed his hand into a fist, when he heard that name.
"Why should I look like this, pathetic traitor?" he asked the crowd, "It's not necessary for me to look like Black in order to stick your tongues up your asses." the man chuckled.
"This bastard is starting to annoy me!" the werewolf roared, "Let me chop his tongue off."
"Do it." the ork said, with a grin, but when werewolf was about to swing at the man he suddenly disappeared, "What the?!" the demons were astonished seeing this. And after a second they saw how he appeared behind the werewolf, "Look out!" their boss shouted, but it was too late for the demon, with one swing of the man, the head of the werewolf was separated from its body, "Take him!" the ork demanded. The demons pounced at the man, but he disappeared again and then, appeared behind another demon and his hand pierce its chest, the demon started to lose its power and then and after a second became lifeless. And then the man suddenly whispered.
"Raise." and pulled out his arm. The demon opened its eyes and started to roar, "Kill them." the man smiled with a strange smile, and then the demon run towards his former comrades and started to fight them.
"Da hell is goin' on?!" the boss shouted as he saw how his fallen comrade started to attack his comrades. Then the man appeared straight behind the ork, the demon wanted to attack him, but couldn't as something wasn't allow him to do this.
"Now watch how this thing will kill all of them." the man smirked.
"Bastard!" the demon roared trying to move with his limbs, but all his attempts were useless.
The killed demon was fighting other demons from the gang; it was fighting three demons at one time. The demons tried to give their former comrade dead strikes, but the there was no effect of them."
"Idiots! Just kill dis bastard and dat thing will be history!" the boss commanded.
"Wise advice." the man who proclaimed himself as Vampire King admitted. Two demons followed the advice of their boss, and decided to attack the man. However it suddenly disappeared when they were near with him, "Pretty slow guys." He appeared behind them and with another swing beheaded another demon, the boss could move again and decided to attack the man, this time the ork could grab the man into a bear-hug.
"Gotcha!" the ork said with triumphantly, and started to squeeze him.
"Too early to celebrate." the man groaned, but still with the same insidious smile, and when the ork wanted to break his spine the man disappeared again and then appeared behind him again, "Told you." and then his and pierced the orks chest.
"Bastard!" the only thing the demon ground and fell down onto the ground. The man looked at the creature that was dealing with the last demon, and when the bunch became history, he glanced himself over, and remarked, "Just spoiled my armor." and then turned to the creature that once was a demon, "Do you know where these insects came from?" the demon nodded, and then the man ordered, "Escort me there." the monstrosity turned around and went by the direction that was the man's aim.
They were walking about forty minutes; the man was following the abomination, the man was surprised that the thing didn't take him to main streets, but only was continuing to lead him, by the lanes and side streets. After a while they finally reached a small building that was in the end of the street, the monster pointed at the building, "The leader of your gang in that place?" he asked it, the monster nodded. The man pondered, for a while, 'Well, what should I do next, maybe I should just enter it, it will show them that I'm not afraid of them.' the man was thinking for a long time, he also thought to go there through the roof, but this idea wasn't too good, because the demons could accept him as a Taimanin, and this is the last thing he wanted to get. So he decided to enter the building by the front door. He looked at the monster and then snapped with his fingers, the monster fell down onto the ground lifeless, 'Now let's start the show. The man came to the door and opened it, when he did it a crowd of demons quickly turned their head to the newcomer, he also could see several humans in the lobby.
The man passed the door way, the clang of his boots was heard perfectly, all of them were surprised to see such reckless and mad person who decided to enter the demons' nest so easily, "I would like to speak with your boss." the man mere said when he was in the middle of the lobby, the ground floor of the building reminded somewhat of a bar, with lots of tables and chairs, and with counter in the right corner of it.
"And why do you need him?" a demon asked the newcomer getting up from the chair and turning to him.
"I would like to speak with him about something that shouldn't concern you." the man continued, he decided to speak with serious face and cold voice as he wanted imbue fear in the attendants.
"And who asks?" the demon continued his interrogation.
"Vampire King." the man merely replied, and heard a strong laugh again, but this one was much stronger as there were much more presents.
"You?!" the demon continued threw laughing, "Vampire King?! Well you entertained me perfectly, if you have nothing to say then get lost, while we are kind!" the man responded nothing, he was watching at the crowd examining them.
'And this rag-tag and bobtail, they want use as a red herring?' he asked himself, and then grabbed the arm if the demon, the demon was massive and didn't await something like this from such puny person. The man twisted the demon's arm and it was possible to hear how the bone started to crack.
"The hell!" the demon groaned.
The rest that were still sitting and were about to help the demon, but the man quickly disappeared and appeared behind another human, the human prepared his blades and wanted to attack with a whirled attacked in order to protect himself and at the same time to get their attacker. But the armored man dodged it perfectly and with one move could to knock out his weapon, grabbed it and then pierced his neck with the blade. Two orks decided to attack the man from behind, but their attempts were useless, because the man disappeared and appeared behind them, he grabbed the second blade and threw it at one demon that was a bit smaller than the other one. The other ork turned and saw how a blade was sticking out of its neck.
"Scum!" the ork roared, but he wasn't able to reach the man as with one swing he released a strong amount of energy that encountered the ork.
'Aura?' the demon with broken arm thought.
A little by little the number of presents started to reduce and after some minutes the only one who left alive in the building was the demon with the broken arm. "Who the hell are you?!" the man felt that the demon was trembling, "You can use aura! Who the hell are you?!" the demon was scared, and when the man came closer the demon slightly jumped back.
"Haven't I said it already?" the man said calmly, "I'm Vampire King."
"Do you want to tell that you're Edwin Black?!" the demon couldn't belive to his words, but still felt the pressure of the person in front of him.
"So this meddling insect proclaimed himself as Vampire King after all." the man started to ponder out loud, "Never thought that he would call himself like that even King." the man smirked, but then his eyes returned to the demon, that was lying on the floor, "If you want to live don't compare me with this little betrayer." his voice was serious and cold, "Nevertheless, where is your boss?"
"He has gone to breathe."
"Is your leader a massive ork?" the man asked him remembering that he has already heard that someone called that demon 'Boss'.
"Yes, he is." the demon responded.
"Then you have no leader anymore." the man sighed.
"What do you mean?" the demon asked him, with a worried voice.
"I mean that these guys joined him." the man glanced at the bodies of the demons and human, "Well, let's do it in other way." he smiled, "Do you know another gang of demons?"
The demon didn't understand what the man really wanted, but still decided to answer all his questions, in order to leave this place alive, "Yes there's another criminal group we always help each other from time to time." the demon started, "If you want I can lead you there."
"Are they working for Edwin Black?" the man asked him.
"No, they are independent, but still they're pretty small." the demon responded.
"I see." the man pondered, the demon preferred not to interrupt the man as he understood that it could cost dearly to him so he preferred to be silent, "Well give me your hand." he merely said to the demon. The demon stretched its hand to the man; he took it and after a second released it, "Now, go to your friends and tell them about what have happened here, and tell them that I give them a day to think to join 'The Third Law' or they will repeat the fate of you gang." the man wiped his hand by his leg, like he felt abhorrence from touching demon's hand.
"But how should I say them who gave me this message?" the demon asked him.
"Ah, yes." the man smiled, "Tell them that Walter the Vampire…" he stopped for a second, his smile became wider and more fearsome, "No, Walter the true Demon Lord, will come for their lives if they reject my offer."
"But, how you will find me?" the demon asked again, his voice became a bit calmer as he understood that he would survive this day.
"Don't worry about this, I will be able to do this." the man responded, "I hope you understood what you are to do?"
"Yes!" the demon exclaimed.
"Then why are you still here?" Walter interested. The demon got up and rushed out from the building where they were, "And, I'm to check the boy's progress." As Walter said this he covered himself with his tunic and disappeared.
While Walter took the northern direction, Celine was investigating the southern one. Celine's attire attracted much more attention than Walter's. But still Celine didn't pay too much attention on all these stares. The demon was thinking about something else and was pretty far from the reality.
'Wonder.' Celine thought, 'Will meet again? Skills were impressive. What they will show now?' Celine was thinking a lot and didn't notice how suddenly cannoned against somebody.
"I'm sorry!" Celine heard a weak and soft voice ahead. The demon lowered its head, in order to see what was cannoned against it. When Celine did it, the demon could see a slim lass, that was ahead. The girl had wheat hair that was tied in a ponytail, she had grey eyes. The different thing that was between them was their attires. If Celine was wearing armor, the girl had nothing, but a bra and a thong that covered her precious places. The girl had a collar on her neck, that reminded a dog's one. While Celine was watching at the poor thing, the demon found out that the girl was pretty beautiful, "Please forgive." the girl repeated again. Celine heard that the voice of the girl was panting and tired, like she was running. And after a second the girl bypassed Celine and continued to run. When she did it the demon appeared of the next turn and exclaimed.
"Hey! Bitch, stand fast!" and ran after her by the same direction.
'Interesting.' Celine thought, the demon narrowed its eyes, and then turned around and followed the pray and the chaser. Celine wasn't going fast, but at the same time not too slow, in order to be on medium distance from them.
The chasing wasn't too long as the demon had more powers than the girl. The girl found herself in a dead end and didn't know what to do. She wanted to return, but heard fast steps in front of her, and after a second the demon that was chasing her came out of the corner.
"Well, you made me run!" the demon that looked like a human said coming closer to her.
"Please! I don't want to do this anymore!" the girl exclaimed, "Let me go!"
"Do you really think that it really makes me worried?" the demon asked the girl, "Didn't you forget who you're working for?" the demon came close to her. The demon was tall and could look down the girl.
"Please, I'll do whatever you want, but let me go!" the girl wanted to say something else, but couldn't as her cheeks were squeezed.
"Do you really think that I'll let go the girl who brings the primary income, stupid human?" the demon smirked, "However, your offer to do whatever I want…" the demon licked its lips and put his free hand onto her neck and started to slide with it by her body lower and lower, until it reached her thong, "Let me teach you a lesson, of what happens to those who escape from us." he narrowed his eyes and was about to remove her thong when they suddenly heard some steps that were coming to their location. The demon heard them first, and when the person came out of the corner, he quickly asked the newcomer, "The hell do you need?!" the voice of the demon was irritated and pretty wary.
"Please, help me." the girl pleaded very quietly, however the demon heard it.
"Shut up damn whore!" the demon gave her a slap. It was strong enough to make her fall. After that it was possible to hear her sobs, "What do you want?" the demon asked again.
"This girl." Celine merely responded.
"Huh? So you want to play with her?" the demon said smiling, "Sorry, but right now she is busy, come after ten minutes and she is yours." the girl turned her head to Celine her eyes were full of fear and plead of help.
"Is she…? Working for you?" Celine asked again.
"Yeah if you're really interested she is walking in a brothel." the demon stopped for a second, "So if you want you can go there and have some fun with our chicks."
Celine didn't stop to watch at the poor girl who pleaded for a help. 'Brothel. They can have members, Walter was talking about.' she thought, but then decided to ask, "Girl, the location of it?" Celine turned to the wheat haired girl.
"Do you mean the location?" the girl asked through sobbing, Celine nodded, "Yes, I know!" she exclaimed.
"I take her." Celine merely said, coming closer to the demon, "Now." was said as Celine came close to the demon.
"Didn't I tell you that you can have her after ten minute?" the demon raised the voice.
"Have no time, to argue." Celine replied him.
"Hey! Don't think that this armor will protect you from me!" the demon warned Celine. Celine saw how demon's claws started to grow. The demon aimed a blow for an attack; the girl closed her eyes, like she had already known the result of the battle. The demon was going to hit Celine at the head when the armored person turned the head and at the next moment a cold air was released it also was possible to see a cold gas that covered the demon and when the gas dispelled, Celine saw that the demon was fully frozen. The girl opened her eyes and saw the same picture that the demon was frozen.
"Get up." Celine said calmly, but the girl understood that it was an order. The girl got up and Celine came closer to her. The legs of the human girl started to shaken, her tears disappeared and now it was possible to see a fear in her eyes. The girl was scared too much for talking, "The location… Of the brothel." Celine mere said, "Lead me." the girl nodded and then went to the exit from the filthy alley where they were, Celine was going to follow her, but the armored demon stopped near with the frozen monster, and with one hit destroyed the ice and the demon with it too. The girl saw this and flinched, "Nothing to worry about." Celine tried to calm the girl, but the voice of the rescuer didn't instill the needed comfort and Celine preferred to keep silence.
They started their way, they passed a half of the way that they had already done, on the way to the lane. They were going by the lively streets of the Tokyo Kingdom. The ones who were on them watched at such strange company with amusement in their eyes, one girl who had almost nothing on her body and a person who was wearing armor on the body was a pretty funny company. Their way was passing in silence, the girl was afraid to ask something, while Celine preferred not to talk at all just to think about her own things.
"Here is the place." the girl pointed at the building that was in the center of the street indecisively.
"Is it?" Celine reasked the girl again, 'The middle. Don't like it." Celine thought.
"Yes, this is the place where I'm working." the girl nodded.
"I see." Celine responded, "Wait here. Run away and you will join him." Celine reminded the girl about the fate of the demon that was frozen a while ago.
"Got it." the girl nodded and mumbled, she was scared again and decided to follow the order of that mysterious person who helped saved her from the demon's punishment. The girl went to a small lane that was on the opposite of the brothel in order to reduce her presence in public, while Celine headed to the building, it was a single three floored building. It was pretty big outside. The place was pretty crowded like it was popular; there was a pretty long crowd in front of the main door. It was possible to see two security guys in the doorway that checked the people, one of them had a clipboard and another one was just for insurance. When Celine was close enough to the men one of them asked her.
"Name." Celine stopped, but said nothing the armored person only turned the head to the man, "Name, please."
"Why?" Celine mere responded.
"Are you in the register?" the man asked again.
"Register?" Celine asked again.
"Hey, stop playing an idiot out of yourself!" the second man shouted, "Are you in the register or you've come here for business."
Celine came closer to the second man. The person in the armor was the same height as the man it was possible to see that the flinched from such act. Celine breathed out a cold air, the man grew circumspect, but wasn't all abroad.
"Hey, it must be that person the boss told us." the man with the clipboard.
"Huh?" his partner didn't understand.
"Don't you remember?" the first one said, "He told us that some special guest must come, I think that it should be him."
"Well if you say so…" the man took out his hand from his belt and said, "Come in."
Celine nodded, and entered the building, 'Special guest? The person boss told about?' Celine thought while she was going, 'Interesting.' When Celine entered the building, the armored demon could see a pretty wide hall, where were a lot of people and demons at the same time. Celine did some steps glancing at the place. There also were a lot of women in reviling outfits, some of them filled the role of waitresses and some of them filled the dancers' one. The place was lit well and the stages of the dancers were lit much better as it was important that everyone could see them. Celine wasn't interested in what was happening around. The demon wanted to find w the boss the men in the doorway were talking about. Celine decided not waste too much time and preferred to ask straight. The armored one came to the waitress that was serving a pretty fat man that wasn't removing his eyes from the girl.
"Must find the boss." Celine said to the girl, "Have to talk." she continued.
"Um…" the girl muttered, "I'm not the one who you should talk about this." The girl in the bunny suit referred, "Talk with someone from the security." she said with a smile. Celine nodded, but still was standing and watching at the waitress, likewise wanting to know something else, "Oh, if you don't know that man could help you." the girl pointed at the man that suddenly appeared from some door. Celine nodded again and went to the man that the girl with a bunny suit pointed.
When Celine came to that person, Celine turned to him with the same calm and cold voice, "Was told, you can bring me to the boss."
The man flinched and turned aside, "Who the hell are you!" the man was surprised of such unexpectedness.
"Must speak with boss." Celine continued with the same manner.
"Ah, you must be that person from 'Under Eden'." the man said like he remembered something, "You're just in time, the director has just arrived." the man turned and then added, "Follow me." Celine did what was told. Their way wasn't long; it took about three minutes to reach the third floor and the needed office. As they were going up the man told some information about the place, that the ground floor was somewhat of a club and the place where the customers and visitors could rent a needed girl, the first floor was the place where they could have fun with those who rented. And the second floor was for heads of the brothel. And there also was a place under the building where the staff lived.
However Celine didn't talk with him, the armored demon wasn't even listening to him as was absorbed in the thoughts. 'For them, who am I?' Celine thought, 'Must await someone else. But not me' Celine continued.
The man knocked at the door when they finally arrived, Celine stopped thinking and raised the head to the door.
"Yes?" they heard a voice behind the door.
The man slightly opened the door and said, "Master, the person from 'Under Eden' has arrived."
"Already?" the voice behind the door said, "Let her in."
"Come in." the man said, and then leaned to Celine's head where her ear was, "Master is a bit narcissistic, so turn to him, 'Master', and everything will be fine." he whispered. Celine nodded and entered the office.
When the armored demon entered it, it was possible to see that the place where was the 'Master', was pretty rich and furnished with some special taste. All room was in red color the walls the furniture and even curtains that closed the window. 'Hate red.' Celine thought, but still came closer to the place where the man was sitting. The man was well in on years; his face was frowned and discontented, like he heard some bad news. The man had also a beard, it was short. The man was wearing a red short with black trousers, and also Celine noticed that he had gloves, however they were white. The man took off all his papers from the table, and turned to Celine.
"You're a too early. I thought you would come about half past twelve." he said.
"Was told to find allies to the organization." Celine decided to start from a far, "And heard you possess the facilities."
"Well, yes I have some power and influence here." the man responded, "And at the same time, I have resources that allow me to be somewhat of a leader in this small district. So let me ask you too, why so strong faction decided to cooperate with us?" the man said. Celine responded nothing, the visitor decided to think carefully what to say. Celine understood that the main problem was that they absolutely don't know each other. Celine was looking for allies to 'The Third Law', while the man in front of her awaited someone else. The man decided to interrupt that awkward silence, "Well, I mean that you could take us under your control easily, so why you didn't do this?"
"Quite new for this place." Celine answered, "In Japan haven't got much power, that's why I was told to find allies."
"You haven't got much power?" the man laughed, and got up from his chair. Celine noticed that he was a bit chubby, "You're a modest one, as I heard your faction can be contrasted with NOMAD."
"However it's not so." the armored demon said, "Need allies who will tell about the kingdom." Celine responded continued.
"So you need some sort of an Intelligencer, here don't you." Celine nodded, "I see. Yes, it's pretty difficult to survive in this world without special and valuable communications. Even, I have informers in other small groups. That's why I still feel myself perfectly." the man came to the cabinet that was from his left, opened it and took out a glass water bottle where some transparent liquid was. "Will you have some?" the man asked his visitor, but Celine only shook with the head. The man took out one glass and returned to the table, "By the way, I also wanted to ask, I was informed that a woman with brown hair and white and grey attire supposed to arrive, so why Mister Kuroi changed his opinion?"
"Kuroi?" Cline reasked.
"Yes, I…" the man stumbled, 'Wait a minute, could it be?' the man thought, but still decided to continued, "I mean why he changed his mind."
"I don't know." Celine said. The man sat onto the chair, and put the glass onto his working place, his arm was under the desk and after a second he returned it on its place, "So what can you offer me, if I join you? I receive a lot of offers to cooperate with something."
"Protection." Celine answered narrowing eyes; the head of the person lowered onto the table, Celine got up and went to the side where the door was, "Sense of security." Celine heard some strange stir behind the door; the armored person put the hand onto the door and after several second it was covered with ice.
"What is the meaning of this?!" Master shouted at Celine after he saw what was done, "Who the hell are you?!"
"There was misunderstanding. Came from 'The Third Law'."
"'The Third Law'?" the man asked, "But how is it…?" the man stopped, but then continued picking himself up, "What do you want from?"
"Was told, to find allies." Celine said the same what was told not long enough, "Need those, who informs and helps us."
"Master! Master!" the two of them heard how someone started to shout and knock at the door, "Are you there?" it was also possible to hear that some steps didn't belong to humans at all, "Break the door!" they heard next, and the outsiders started to break the door.
Celine came closer to the desk and said, "Decision?"
The man took the glass and said, "I can't even think?"
"Think now." Celine answered him.
The man started to eat up the clock, he wanted to let his man in and at the same time was thinking about the person in front of him, 'How the hell this happened, these idiots brought me absolutely another person.' he did a sip out of the glass and continued, ''The Third Law', aren't they just mercenaries? I thought that they supposed to dwell somewhere in South America, the heck they are doing in Japan. However, I also heard that they are quite strong and they even can confront 'Red Division'; however from the other side I can join forces with Ruuji Kuroi himself. Well I feel myself between a rock and a hard place.'
Celine was watching at the man and was waiting, likewise not being interested at all in what he was thinking and even didn't hasten the man ahead. Celine watched at the window and saw something gleaming after in the next second the person move aside pretty fast, the window was cracked and a spear pierced the floor. Celine raised the head to the window and saw a new person. The person was a woman that had pretty short brown hair that reached her shoulders, red eyes; the most noticing thing in the newcomer was the white and grey suit. The suit was similar to the clothes of hunters; the grey part was closing the main part of the body, except legs and arms, the arms and legs of the person were covered with metal gloves and black leggings, however they were separated and reached till the half of thighs, the shins were closed with metal plates too. Celine was watching carefully, at the newcomer, the most interesting thing in the woman who was standing ahead, was large breast. However the breast of the woman was closed with white cloth that separated at four directions and reminded triangles in the end. As Celine noticed the woman also had a long ribbon that was tied in the form of rabbit's ears.
"It seems that someone else wants to cooperate with you." the woman said to the man with a smile.
'The hair, the attire.' the man thought, "Are you from Ruuji Kuroi?" he asked her.
"Yes, but the most interesting thing is who is that person." the woman pointed at the man.
"An invader!" the man said exclaimed, "He wanted to kill me!"
"Is it so?" the woman said to herself. In no time the woman appeared in front of Celine and grabbed her spear, and with a single swing was about to chop the head of the armored person. However Celine dodged it perfectly, and with one jump appeared in front of the door, with one hit of Celine the ice was destroyed.
"Think carefully. I give you some time. When arrive, give me your answer." and as only it was said the half of the room was covered with that was close enough to the door was cover with a white thick frosty gas. When it was scattered the visitor in the white armor disappeared.
The woman took the spear and came to the man and asked him, "Who was that person?" she pointed her weapon at the 'Master' and added to her question, "Are you playing both sides?"
"No." he only shook with his head, "Just sit and I'll tell you everything, but first." looked at the woman, "Are you from mister Kuroi, miss…"
"Shiranui." the woman responded, "Yes, I'm Kuroi-sama, personal assistant."
"I see, Shiranui." the man sighed with relief in his voice, "Now, sit down please and let our talk begin."
'This person is pretty long.' the girl with wheat hair thought peering out of the corner of some lane, she was watching at the doors of the club, 'Why am I still here? If there was someone else on my place no doubt that she would try to escape, but still… If I will be near with this person, I'll be in his protection?' the girl continued her ponderings, until she felt a cold breathe behind her. She gave a cry, but immediately closed her mouth with her hand, as she didn't want to be heard. When she turned to its source, she saw the same person that had saved her a while ago.
"Have you finished your work there?" the girl asked Celine.
"Yes." the armored person replied.
"So, it seems that you have no need in me since, you've done what you needed." the girl decided to be straight and not to beat around the bush, she was sure that she could leave that mysterious person and, in now time, she would be returned to her work place, or at least would be brought to another one.
"The work is done." Celine said, but after some seconds added, "But, the guide is needed." the girl was surprised to hear this, "New to this place, and must be fast in definition of directions." and then Celine turned the head to the woman, "The place is familiar to you."
"You mead the Tokyo Kingdom, don't you?" the girl didn't understood what her rescuer mentioned and decided to detail what Celine was talking about, but Celine only nodded, "Yes, being a…" she stumbled for a second, but then continued, "I know this [lace pretty well." her voice still was indecisive, but still she didn't want to lose such protector and was ready to do absolutely everything, to stay with him as long as it only possible.
"Then follow me." Celine responded and went deep inside of the lane where they were.
The girl rushed to overtake her new so called partner, "By the way…" the girl said with a trebled voice as she was afraid to annoy her rescuer, "How should I turn to you?"
"Celine." the rescuer responded.
"Are you a woman?" the wheat haired girl was slightly surprised to hear a female's name from someone who had nothing that reminded features of woman, Celine nodded again.
"My name is Stephanie." she replied with a slight smile, but Celine said nothing, likewise she started to think about something else, that was far from what was surrounding her, "By the way, if we go this way, we will bang against demons, this place is a nest for some of them."
"Nothing to worry about." Celine responded and continued her way, Stephanie gulped and followed her.
"If you say so." the wheat haired girl responded.
