Summon. part 1

Ding…

A text message popped on his phone's notification all of a sudden. A man with golden locks on his head swiped the notification bar down and saw a warning message. It was from Ms Cassy and she seemed to be in danger. He was terrified to see his boss in danger. 

He quickly dashed out of the bush he was hiding in and saw the man with pure white hair with silver eyes. Then he saw his boss bowing in front of him. He couldn't understand the situation but even so, he pulled out his gun and pointed it at Viktor.

"Get away from her!!"

Cassy immediately screamed, "Don't kill him!!! Don't kill him!!! Please!! Elerous!! Don't!!!"

Viktor glared at him and said, "Ferlo, you should've stayed hidden in the bush instead of showing your ugly face. Well, I don't kill people without any reason. He doesn't even look threatening to me. I don't play games with ants."

Ferlo moved forward to him slowly and then said, "I don't know why the boss is on the ground, but her condition looks like you've done something bad to her."

Cassy got up from the ground and said, "Ferlo, don't come any closer. Please. Listen to me."

The moment Viktor put his hands in his pocket Ferlo turned off the switch and then, "Ferlo, no!!!!!"

Bang!!!

He fired a bullet at Viktor.

"Tsk… these mana bullets are surely bothersome."

A force field of air blocked the bullet and it stayed afloat in the air. Viktor then took out his phone from his pocket and dialled a phone number. 

"Ah..Baek. You called me earlier. Sorry I couldn't pick up because I was at my brother's birthday party."

  *Oh, today's Hyung's birthday party?*

"Yes."

   *Oh, sorry. Then I'll send you the email now. You must be busy. I'll see you at the academy then.*

Viktor put his phone back inside his pocket and looked at Ferlo's face. It was painted in terror.

"You better choose your opponent wisely from now on. Otherwise, you'll lose your head before you know it."

Cassy ran towards him and covered him. "Please!! I don't need anything from you now. Just let him live. I promise I will never set a foot in your territory. I swear that I won't tell anything about this to Midas. So, please. I beg you!"

Her tears started to roll down her face. 

    'I never had any intention of taking his life in the first place-_-. Why would I kill someone on this precious day-_-? Today's my knight's birthday. I don't want to wet my hands in blood.'

Viktor shook his head and said, "Fine, but it will cost some of his memories about today. He will forget about today's incident. As for you, I will put a curse upon your soul. The moment you're going to tell anyone about me to someone else, your heart will get crushed. You'll feel unbearable pain for a week. So be careful when you're thinking about me. It might even cost your precious life."

Viktor raised his hand and a magical circle appeared on her left chest. "Now, take him back to your hotel and put him to sleep. Once he wakes up, he'll forget about everything. But remember, I won't show any mercy next time." 

Cassy dragged him out of his property without saying a word right after he finished his sentence.

"Master is really kind."

Viktor again took out a cigarette and lit it to smoke. 

"What are you doing here, Adonis? Aren't you supposed to be at the party?" 

"It's been 20 minutes since you left. Moreover, I took a hangover potion to sober up."

Viktor exhaled a white cloud of smoke from his lungs and his regeneration ability took action. It fixed all the nicotine before it spread all over his vines to prevent dizziness.

"Hah… I can't even feel anything smoking this. Trash…"

He threw the cigarette on the ground and crushed it under his shoes. 

Adonis walked closer to him and then leaned against the wall behind him. "Master, why are you smoking so heavily today? Did something happen? Is something bothering you?" 

"Yea… something happened in the near future. I can see it, but the path to our future is divided in so many ways. The future is not fixed, thus it's difficult to foresee the final result."

Viktor leaned to the wall beside Adonis and said, "You know, I was very busy reading our futures today. I warned you about an upcoming war, didn't I? It seems like it's going to happen much sooner than I anticipated. And in that war, lots of humans will die. Innocents will also be involved and someone very close to us will betray us."

Adonis then smiled a little and said, "It's him, right?"

"Yes. It's him. But like I just told you, the future isn't fixed. Our choices will determine whether he wants to betray us or not in the future. There's no reason for us to be on our guards yet. We just need to be careful of Midas. He's a sly dog."

"What about the guardian you talked about a few days ago? The one called Mors, the guardian of death?"

"Oh, him? We're going to take care of him in July."

"So it's next month."

"Yes. We're going to Russia, right before the hybrid war breaks out."

Viktor climbed up on the wall and offered Adonis a hand. "Adonis, from tomorrow. We're going to get really busy. Will you help me?"

Viktor took his hand and said, "That's why I'm here beside you, master. I am always here for you." Adonis sat on the wall beside him and again said, "I am here for you till the end of the time."

"Heheh..what are you even saying. People will think that we're a couple at this rate. There are so many gay couples in Korea, you know. People's assumptions are really out of hand these days." 

"Huh… I don't care what they say. I just want to stand by your side. That's what my existence is about." 

"Okay, okay. Now let's get inside. I can sense the sun rays already. It will come up in 4 hours."

Adonis looked at his new watch and said, "You're right indeed. It's past 2 am. I guess we need to take a break now. Tomorrow will be a big day." 

"Yes, tomorrow will be a busy day and it will continue until 2040."

Adonis glared at Viktor with shocked eyes. 

"Master, it's only 9th June of 2032."

"Yes. We will be busy for 8 years. So let me sleep tomorrow. Don't wake me up until 5 pm."

"Hah…as you wish, my lord."

Viktor laughed a little and then immediately went inside his blanket to sleep for the whole day.

…

Somewhere in North Carolina, USA.

Knock..knock..knock…

"Pizza delivery is here!! Hello? Is someone home?" 

The delivery man rang the doorbell and looked at the door cam. "Hello? Is anyone home?"

*Please leave the pizza on the doormat. There's a 100-dollar bill under it. Take it and leave.* a teenager's voice came out of the small speaker. 

"Oh… O..okay then. Have a great day." The delivery man quickly took the bill and rode off on his motorbike. He was happy to get a 70-dollar tip from one go. 

The door opened and a pale white pair of hands came out to take the food. "I must eat it while it's warm."

The door closed.

At that moment, someone again knocked on the door that made him annoyed.

He locked the chain and then opened it. "Who's this?"

"Oh, we're police officers. About an hour ago, we received a complaint from this neighbourhood saying that they heard a woman's scream from this house. Do you have any idea about it?"

The teenage boy opened the door wide and changed his personality immediately to talk with them. "Oh!! They must've heard the game that I play every day. I accidentally started to play leaving the headphone cords unplugged and the sound came out. I apologise for the noise. I will make sure to turn the volume low when I'm playing."

He smiled awkwardly which made them really think that he was playing games. They sure read the complaint that they heard the noise only once and his story matches it perfectly.

"Oh, I thought someone was getting abducted. Anyway, boy. Make sure to attain school. Don't play games all the time. It's bad for your health."

"I will, officers. Don't worry." 

The police officers left the area and then, he closed the door after seeing them go far away. 

He slowly walked inside the room and opened the door to the basement. The basement was dark and filthy. In a corner of it, a naked girl was in chains, sleeping because of exhaustion. 

"I told you not to scream through the pipe yesterday. And you just did it today because you heard the neighbour's voices through it."

The girl woke up and saw his face. "Please…let me go…"

He knelt in front of him and then said, "You already broke our promises. Now you have to summon demons. You're the chosen one, right? It's your job to summon demons from hell and make them your subordinate so that I can give you my body as much as you want. You love it,  don't you?"

"You're….You're going to give it to me, right?"

The boy used his greed magic on her and made her fall for him all over again. "Yes, I never break my promise. Right? I love you so much, Kathy. That's why I want you to summon as much as you can so I can make love with you as much as you want." 

She raised her hands towards his face and touched his cheeks. "I will do anything for my love. I might be greedy, but if it's my love's wish, I can fight with the gods."

The boy smiled a little and said, "That's my baby girl. Now, let's see how many demon souls you can summon."

"Yes!! My love!! I will show you!!"
