-Core Evolution-

Cyrus is a man who lived a life of demise, cataclysm, and unhealing wounds surrounding him. Due to the treachery of trusted loved ones, death greeted him early. Unexpectedly his soul is pulled to partake in an event called DC BG (The Dungeon Core Battle Games). It's eternal death if he loses, and anyone that ever knew him will forget his existence. The winner will be granted any wish of their choosing. Not fully interested, he almost doesn't partake in the competition until he sees who's on the roster for the match. Cyrus's soul is inserted into a dungeon core to strengthen it for intruders and future battle games. Six color clans represent the rainbow, and a new color is added. Can you guess his?

Hidden

Minutes later, Cyrus manages to find the street filled with multiple micells. He looks left to right and doesn't see the guild anywhere. "I hope it's not hard to find" he sighs.

{Why don't you just look for the doctor instead?}

'I could... but where's the fun in that? Besides I doubt he would stay in the same spot. I'll go over there after I visit the guild.'

He started to walk down the street himself to look for it, but he changed his mind and decides to ask for directions from a black haired micell in front of him "Hey, do you know where a guild called Hidden is?"

She jumps a little and turns around, "What?" Once she turned in his direction, Cyrus was caught off guard because he's never seen a micell with her traits before. The top of her hair was red while the ends were black and the color of her eyes are red. He quickly snapped out of it though.

"Do you know where the guild called Hidden is?"

She was hesitant to answer because of his appearance, and squinted hard at him as if his true intentions were going to pop out of his cloak at any moment.

"Helloo?"

"Why are you looking for the guild?"

He scratches his head "And who are you?"

"Chill, I'm just curious..." she smirks and slowly walks around him with her hands behind her back. Once she finished walking around him, she nods her head.

"Hi just curious, are you going to tell me or not?"

She frowns at his mockery, but leaves it alone, "That depends" She reaches out her hand and makes a gesture. Immediately, Cyrus bursts out laughing with a few tears forming in his eyes.

"You want me to pay you?"

"Yes"

He quickly turns around to find someone else to ask while she continues to try and convince him. "You can attempt to ask other people, but they won't know where it is! Why do you think it's called the 'Hidden' guild"

"How do you know and others don't?"

"I know a couple of people" She looks at her nails and smiles. Her arrogance made him not want to pay her even more, so he continues to walk to find other micells.

"Good luck trying to find it!" She waves

{Think fast Cyrus because if what she says is true then you'll waste more time on your body}

He groans whiles leaning back in irritation. "I guess I have no choice" Cyrus turns around with a frown on his face.

"Fine, how much?"

"50 kolons"

"25"

"40!"

"20"

"35?"

"15"

"...30"

"6. Keep it up and i'm bringing it down more"

"What happened to going down in five's!?"

"Do you want me to go lower?" He chuckles

"No deal!"

"Honestly, I don't care if you tell me or not. Do you want the money or not? I can gladly look for it myself.

"Fine!" She frowns

'How do I take my money out?'

{Open wallet}

'Open wallet'

{Tap the arrows based on how much you want to take out. If you only need one kolon, tap the right arrow by the one and vice versa}

Cyrus tapped the right arrow for the five once, then for the one to equal it out to six and pressed confirm. The money instantly appeared in his hands and gave it to the micell.

Her eyes sparkle at the money and at Cyrus "Ah! Yes, it's not too far from here. Go down three blocks and make two rights. Then you'll see it!"

'Did I just get played?' He sighs.

{Maybe}

"Anyways, why does she look so happy? Was it the money or am I that good looking?' He grins

{It's definitely the money}

Cyrus rolls his eyes and ignores Pic's comment, not realizing the black haired micell had left. Immediately, he follows the instructions she gave him and walks down the street. It took a while, but he finally arrived in front of the guild. Once he saw it, his jaw dropped with an expression of disgust .

The guild's building was run down, with wood coming out of place and the paint wearing off on different sections of the building. A few windows were broken while some are boarded shut.

"I've never been so insulted in my life" He raises his hands towards the guild. "This is the guild they requested to stalk me!?"

{Maybe the appearance is to throw outsiders off? Obviously, anyone who first looks at the guild would think that their members aren't good}

He folds his arms and raises an eyebrow, 'Why would they want people to think that?'

{So only certain individuals know that they're members are actual professionals which allows the guild to only receive special requests. That's probably how they got their name}

Cyrus makes a face of approval 'That makes me feel a bit better' Before he went inside, he decided to inspect the area some more. One thing he noticed was that there was not a single person in sight. Even if the guild is broken down it was still oddly strange. It was so quiet, that Cyrus could see a tumbleweed go across the yard. There's not a janitor or gardener either. 'They must really be trying to keep their 'hidden' image up'

After examining, he heads up to the entrance and attempts to open the door. He struggled a bit, but he managed to get in making tons of dust fly everywhere. All of the micells who are inside, looked towards Cyrus with a surprised Pikachu face watching him walk down to the bar.

He sits down on a stool while the bartender cleans one of the cups. "Would you like something to drink sir?"

"No"

"Are you here to join?"

"Hell no, where's your leader? I need to talk to him"

The bartender stops cleaning the dish "Who's asking?"

"Don't worry about it. There was a request concerning me and apparently it was a quest that only they know of." Cyrus looks down and rest his arms on the table.

"Oh really? What was this quest?" He smiles and pushes up his glasses.

"Look, just call your leader down. I don't have time for chit chat"

"I thought you said you wanted to talk to the leader?" He puts the dish away

He looks up at the bartender and laughs a bit. "Ah! I see y-...." Cyrus was suddenly interrupted by a door slam from the front of the building. Five micells comes inside causing a ruckus by knocking tables over and threatening members of the guild. One of the four micell looked similar to the one that was recently killed in his dungeon.

A bronze haired micell, who seems to be the leader of the pack walks towards the bar. He was extremely buff in his upper body, but his lower half looked like he skipped leg day. The micell also had an eyepatch on his left eye.

"Oy! Leader Bayne when are you going to pay the rest of the money back?" The buff micell makes a huge grin.

The bartender, Bayne, doesn't look his way "When I have enough. I've been paying you 30 kolons every week. If you've come to start drama....don't"

Cyrus sighs and shakes his head. 'So he is the boss...I'm kind of embarrassed, but also irritated because you were wrong Pics! They're not hidden professionals! They're just broke!' He grabs his chest in heartache, realizing his initial concern was right and that he's been insulted.

{Why did you take my word for it? It was only a guess}

'Whatever' He frowns and focuses back on Bayne's situation.

The micell slams his hands on the table "You know what! Each day you don't pay is an extra 50 kolons to what you owe!"

"You..." Bayne clenches his fists, "...can't do that"

"Aw, am I hurting your feelings?" He laughs "How about this.. I'll lower it down to 49! Aren't I generous boys?!"

"Hell yea Pav!" The other 4 micells yell

"I'm not doing that. I'll pay you what I owe and that's it"

A vein pops out of Pav's forehead, showing his irritation,"Oh yeah?" He grabs Bayne by the neck and slams him on the wall. Bayne tries to scrambles free, but the more he did it the more he couldn't breathe. "How about now? Are you going to do it now?" Pav grins

Even if Bayne wanted to answer, he couldn't because he's too busy trying to get more oxygen. His face was already turning red.

"What was that! I can't hear youu! Are you going to do it n-..!" Pav stopped talking as soon as he felt something touching him. It was Cyrus tapping his shoulder.

"Hey"

"Who the f*ck are you!?"

"I still have business with him... let him go sh*thead. Get your Johnny Bravo lookin a*s out. No one has time for you and your games. Go play somewhere else" Cyrus makes a shoo gesture with his hands

Pav quickly drops Bayne on the floor, "What did you say to me!?!"

"Are you deaf? Go away" He laughs

Pav throws a fist at him, but Cyrus dodges barely avoiding it. "Woah! That was close..." He grins "This will be fun"
