Beginning Of A Long Night

Haruhiro opened his Inventory and took out a black book. This is the skill book he obtained from the quest "Prepare for the Apocalypse". He looked at the information given to him by the System and smiled. It seems that this skill book is going to be useful.

[Skill Book: Contains a skill that can be learned by one person.

Skill: Weapon Proficiency

Effect: Able to wield any weapons faster and effectively.]

He smiled since now he can deal much more damage. Haruhiro learned from the fight before how the use of weapons would help him fight better. Sloth used his guns and his zombies while the person in white created his weapons from his light. He thought how he should have made use of his Inventory along with his shadows for sneak attacks. However, it's too late to regret now he will just have to learn from it just like he is doing right now.

"I'll learn this skill then." He said to no one in particular but the girls looked at him curiously. They know about the skill book since Anna personally experienced it while Yasumi was present during the time she learned the skill.

"Do we need to move away Haru?" Anna worriedly asked him since it might not be a good thing for any of them if they were in his way as he tries to learn the skill. "No need, there isn't going to be any problem besides..." Haruhiro tightened his hug on Yasumi that's sitting on his lap and said, "I'm enjoying this way too much."

Yasumi blushed when she heard this, being the one to carry the Sin of Lust she has been having a hard time controlling her desires. It wasn't just Haruhiro having a hard time these past weeks that they've been together not able to release their pent up frustrations. Yasumi would always find herself uncomfortable and wet, she's been sleeping at Haruhiro's side before the apocalypse happened and it only stopped when he came back all injured from a fight. During that time she slept all alone in her room and "played" around to try and satisfy herself but it was never enough.

Haruhiro then used the skill book, blue light enveloped him and the two girls.

[Host has learned the skill, Weapon Proficiency.]

His red eyes looked at Anna and then at Yasumi. Yasumi could feel that strange feeling once again as she looked at those eyes of his.

'Now that Haruhiro-san is awake maybe we could...' As Yasumi thought that she unconsciously leaned her back on Haruhiro's body and started moving her hips slowly. Her bottom rubbed against Haruhiro's dragon making it hard, he smirked when he felt Yasumi's movement. He learned not long ago about Yasumi's ability and her being the Sin of Lust from the System.

[Sin Of Lust

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral Incarnate

- Born from humanity's sins of lust. Like the other Deadly Sins that carry the world's sins, those that carry the Sin of Lust will be the very personification of Lust. Their sexual drives enhanced, they will almost never be satisfied.

They will also gain the "Charm" ability that allows them to increase a person's favorable impression of them and also affects the opposite party's sexual drive.

The Sin of Lust will control the world with pleasure until the one that carries all the Sins appear.]

He smiled when he remembered how the System described the Sin of Lust, how it would control the world with pleasure. Haruhiro thought about the incident this morning and the case about Matsumoto Riku and his friends. Yasumi really does have the potential to control this world with pleasure. Haruhiro then moved his right hand away from her waist and patted her head. Yasumi looked at Haruhiro, her eyes misty and her cheeks flushed.

Haruhiro lost his self-control completely and gave her a deep kiss, Yasumi responded to him eagerly.

As the two lost themselves in each other, Anna is looking at them with a hint of bitterness in her eyes. She knew that this would happen but she just can't allow herself to be the one to give up on Haruhiro. She's been determined ever since she was a child that it will only be Haruhiro she'll marry. However, it seems that she was the only one who thought that way. Anna shook her head, thoughts like that will keep on making her sad. It's better if she just slowly learns to accept it.

Haruhiro and Yasumi continued to indulge in their kiss, Haruhiro was no longer satisfied with just a kiss so he started fondling Yasumi's rabbits. He could feel just how soft her pair of rabbits are and unlike Anna's, Yasumi's rabbits can't fit in his hands. It's not as large as Nanako's but there's almost no difference. No doubt that if the girl's ever learned how Haruhiro is comparing their sizes he would be beaten up within an inch of his life once again.

"Yes! I did it!"

They then heard Nanako's gleeful shout, this broke the kiss between Haruhiro and Yasumi. The three looked at Nanako's direction and saw that one of the bottles that are placed within five meters have been blown away by her flames. Now they could see Nanako smiling at them wryly, just from one glimpse she could understand what happened during the time she was practicing.

"Here I thought Haru-chan was just silently cheering me on but it seems that you were busy yourself." With a tinge of jealousy on her voice and her expression that looked like she was wronged, Haruhiro felt his already boiling blood boil even more. Nanako slowly made her way at the empty space beside Haruhiro, she then closed her eyed while facing him. How could he not know what she wants? Haruhiro kissed her passionately, their tongues entwining and saliva mixing.

He didn't just focus on his kiss with Nanako while doing that he was still fondling Yasumi's rabbits as Yasumi continued to rub her bottom against his dragon. "Ha... Haruh... Haruhiro-san... I can't anymore... Please..." Although incoherent Haruhiro surely understood what she wanted to convey to him.

Haruhiro stopped his kiss with Nanako when they separated a string of saliva could be seen connecting their mouths. Nanako's eyes which have returned to its original black color are wet at the edges. Haruhiro looked at Anna who is now clearly sulking, he felt guilty for making her think that she is being neglected when he's actually still paying attention to her.

He moved Yasumi away from his lap and stood up, Haruhiro then helped Anna to stand up. He placed his forehead against hers and said in a voice only their ears could hear. "I love you so dearly Anna, you know that right?"

"I... I know, I'm just still not... Used to this."

"I know," he then carried her princess style making Anna yelp from surprise. Haruhiro then summoned his shadows and made it wrap around the waist of Nanako and Yasumi. The shadows helped them stand up since their knees seem to have gone weak.

"Nanako, Ya-chan... Hold on to my arms tightly. I'll bring us back to the camp immediately."

Saying that he placed Nanako on his right and Yasumi at his left. The two didn't understand right away what he wanted but still followed his instructions. They then regretted following his instruction because Haruhiro jumped up, bringing along the three girls with him. His jump allowed him to get above the trees showing him the forest and the camp that's not too far away. His jumped allowed them to move forward and once he would fall, he would jump again. The girls yelled at the top of their lungs because of Haruhiro's recklessness.

But still... Once they reach the camp and enter their room, the night awaiting the four of them will surely be a long one.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

The first time he dreamt about that dream he was on the sofa waiting for his mother to return from her work. That dream felt so real to him, it felt like he really was flying and that he was free.

The second time he dreamt about that dream he was still waiting for his mother to return from work. That dream came back again but this time he was fighting against monsters, monsters that only knows how to hurt humans.

The last time he did, he was waiting for his mother to wake up from her coma. She was hit that afternoon by a car, the driver of the said car instead of helping her mother, run away as soon as they could. He dreamt of him being an angel, an avenging angel. He would slay those who would treat anyone unkindly and those that didn't follow the path of the righteous. He liked that dream because there he could punish the person that hurt his mother. He wished that his mother would wake up soon so he could return to waiting for her every night.

However, his mother never woke up.

And he never dreamt of that dream again. It was because he became the angel in his dreams. His eyes turned white and his eyes, blue. The young man then summoned a knife using his light and searched for that man, the man that took his only family away.

He could sense it. He could sense it everywhere, the dirty sins of the world. The injustice of the world. He felt disgusted by how sinful humans are and how unjust they are to their own kind. The young man then walked and walked and walked. He walked for who knows how long, for who knows how far until he reached a parked car. He knows who the owner of that car is and once he saw the owner, he didn't hesitate. He stabbed him with the knife he made from his light as he said the words, "Your sins have been forgiven for you have been cleansed by my light."

The man looked at him with shock and he died just like that. The young man then asked himself, "Now what?"

He no longer knows what he should do and wanted, which is why he decided to drift from place to place and he did. From place to place he moved until he heard the souls of five teens shouting for justice. They've been killed cruelly and viciously, that's what they said to him. That's why he moved.

The young man searched and found the person who killed them along with another. He sensed their sins and he never felt disgusted the way he did back then. He could almost see it, that black aura drifting into their bodies. Which is why he decided to fight. He thought how dirty they were and how they needed to be cleansed. He fought them but somehow the more he fought them, the more he felt uncomfortable from the power he felt.

The more he used it, the more sinful he could see this world. He felt afraid that if one day he used it too much... He may only see the sins of the world.

That was how he lost and got injured, now his wounds won't heal. It was filled with the darkness from that dirty person. It couldn't heal and it hurt so much, he didn't know what to do. What's worst is that the souls kept complaining to him. They kept on saying how useless he is, how he failed. It annoys him.

What he didn't notice is that one of the souls is watching him intently. How this soul swallowed the other souls and how it slowly turned black and how it started to wrap around his body. He didn't notice it because of the pain, because of all the complaints, because of the disgust.

Notice it or not it will, however, be a long night for him surely.
