Unexpected Encounter!
He continues walking, but he suddenly feels something and a chill ran down his spine.
The sensation is growing stronger with every stap he took. Ren glanced over his shoulder, his heart racing. There, in the distance, he saw a figure. A man. Dressed in a sharp black suit, standing under the lamppost at the corner. His posture was stiff and his eyes- his eyes were filled with something Ren couldn't quite place.
[Host, run away quickly he is not simple human.]
When he heard system voice he froze in place. But he said system "I have also become strong after I become devil! Still, I am not his match?" He questions to system.
[No, Host. You're not his match he is in another level and still you don't find a way used your scared gear. So fighting is not option. Just Run away.]
When he heard system voice, then realization hit him very badly. Then he looks that man, he feels his instinct is screaming and telling him one thing. "This man is Dangerous."
Just he wants turn around to run, then his breadth hitched in his chest. His body trembled, a cold sweat beginning to form on his skin. the man wasn't moving, just staring at him with eyes that bore into him. The hostile intent radiating off him was palpable.
Ren couldn't move, frozen by the weight of the man's gaze.
And he saw, the man finally started to walk toward him, his steps slow but deliberate, as though he had all time in the world. With every step, Ren's heart pounder faster. "What does he want with me?" In desperation he to seek system for help. "System, help me or give solution to face the situation."
[Host, I don't know what I do. If, my level is increase then maybe I help you.]
In frustration he asked, "You can't do anything?"
[Sorry host for my uselessness]
He feels sorry for system like him system is also useless in this situation. but when he wants to said something system, only then he heard a strange man voice "Isn't the rare?" his voice is dark and heavy, when Ren heard his voice, he trembles slightly. "To meet someone like you in a place like this."
Ren's body continues to shake, his mind screaming at him to run away. But this man uses some- sort of magic on him.
"Who are you?" Ren finally manage to ask, his voice trembling despite his best efforts to remain calm.
The man stopped just a few feet away from Ren, his cold eyes locking onto his. "You don't know who I am, do you?" the man chuckled darkly. "I think you're a just stary devil." That make more fun about killing you, "I suppose it doesn't matter. You'll soon learn."
Ren's body froze in fear. Then man walked toward him with smile and men stopped few steps away from him and with deadly smile. He stretched his back and unfold Black- feather wing. When he looks that wing, he feels awe and surprised, he remembers yesterday night when he looks same black- feather guy. Who killed him and Isumi yesterday night.
According to the current situation, you are a "Stray". So, it won't be a problem if I kill you."
The guy who just said some scary stuff raises his hand.
No matter how you look at it, his hand is directed towards him! He can hear a noise. He knows this phenomenon because he already saw this before.
Something that looks like light starts to gather in his hand and the fantasy stuff should just stay in the dream! The light then shapes itself into something resembling a spear.
A spear— So it is a spear!
I was pierced in my stomach by that thing in Yesterday by that guy – So- Hua. and I went through hell of the pain! —I'm going to get killed!
By the time I realise it, it has already pierced my stomach.
Then something comes out from Ren's mouth. Lots of blood comes out of his mouth, followed by intense pain.
"It hurts. It hurts so much!" Then he falls down on his knees, on the spot. he can feel insides his organs getting burnt. The pain spreads throughout his body, and it hurts so much that he can't stand it.
He tries to pull out the spear with his bare hand, but the pain spreads to his hand as soon as he touches it. It's hot. It's extremely hot. There are burn marks on the places that touched the spear.
Then he heard very urgent voice in his brain [Host, this spear is made from Holy- light. And Holy- light is very harmful for demon.]
He coughs blood and said in low voice "Thanks, for your late reminder, Mr. System."
[Sorry, Host. For my unaccountability.]
Since his hand is in this state, is the spear start burning his insides?
When he thought like that, the pain increased. "So, this is how it feels like to get your inside burnt?" he self- mock in intense pain.
Step, step. Then there is the sound of footsteps coming towards him.
He looks up, and the mysterious man makes another spear in his hand.
"It must hurt. Light is poisonous to beings like you. Getting hit by it will result in fatal damage. I thought this weakened spear would be enough to kill you, but your body is tougher than I thought. So, I will hit you with it again. But this time, I will put a bit more power into it. Now you are done for."
As he starts to thinking to getting out from this situation. then he suddenly remembers yesterday when he needs her, she come like an angel and saved him.
No, there is no way she will help me this time. Bloody Hell she even doesn't know where am I?
When he thought about her. Ren heard the sound of the wind; an explosion materialises in front of him.
When he looks up, there is smoke coming from the palm of that man's hand. There is blood spilling out of his hand.
"Don't you dare touch him." He heard very melodic voice ever. A woman walks past him. She is one with crimson hair. he can tell who it is, even just by her back.
It's that person who save his life yesterday— Ruby Crimson.
"...Crimson hair... You must be a woman from the House of Crimson..."
The man glares at the woman with crimson hair with eyes full of hatred.
"My name is Ruby Crimson. How are you doing, Fallen Angel? If you are trying to hurt this boy, then I won't hold back. "
"...Fufu. Well, well. So, this boy belongs to you. And this town is also part of your territory then. Well then. For today, I will apologise. But I advise you not to let your servant loose. People like me might slay him while having a walk."
"Thanks for the advice. This town is under my surveillance. So, if you get in my way, then I won't hold back."
"I will say the same to you, heiress of the House of Crimson. My name is Huan. I hope we won't meet again."
The man spreads his black wings, and his body starts to float. He then flies up into the sky.
The man glares at Ruby and Ren once, and then disappears into the sky.
So, it's safe now...? he muttered in low voice. He feels a bit relieved, but his eyes get blurry, he feels very low because he lost a lot of blood and he face overwhelmed pain also. So, he feels like his consciousness start to disappearing.
"Oh My, are you about to faint? This is certainly a fatal wound. It can't be helped. Hey, where is your house—"
The last thing he heard before fainting.
Then, his consciousness cuts off.
