As Hikari dashed passed him Kurai prepared himself to attack on her mark. He didn't have much of a chance to as her swords sliced through the arm of the sentry. Then right after Hana's fist burst right through its head. Unlike him who was vastly underleveled for this encounter it seemed like the two women he was accompanying were vastly overleveled for it. At least he wouldn't have to worry about much with them around. While they finished off the last sentry outside Kurai admired the pair. Hikari had a set of traditional swords that suited her well. She was graceful as always even while she fought. Hana on the other hand was more brutal and unrefined with her style. However, the pink shield she summoned was interesting and sent an odd feeling through his body when a melody rang out from it. Seere and their summoner remained quiet through the ordeal until Hana asked about another entrance. “There are plenty of doors. The place is overflowing with them.” As he proceeded to outline the many ways they could get in Kurai raised a finger for each one. “Front door, side doors, back door, sliding door, windows, skylights. Pick your poison.” Once the others answered he would begin to make his way toward the nearest available option so they could see what waited for them inside. “I wonder if there's more of those things inside.”De/buffs: Utopia Bandanna (+20% VIT and WIL.

Kurai was amazed at the brutality of his companion's attack. He and Seere simply watched wide-eyed as Panya decimated the enormous skeleton with her sarcophagus. How ironic that their enemy would be destroyed by the very thing that it crawled out of. Even though he was fairly confident in his defenses getting hit by her weapon looked like it would hurt. “Wow uh... Good job. Let's see what we can find and get out of here before something else shows up.”As he began to look around the pain he felt before wracked his body once more causing him to double over. The ooze coating his body quickly began crawling over his body and flowing down his throat. At least his eyes returned from wherever they disappeared to when he activated his ability. Kurai lay down on the ground and panted heavily. “Alright. Maybe it'll just be you and Seere looking around.”The demon searched the cave at the behest of their summoner. “Panya you did well. Perhaps begin with the resting place of that giant. It must have been guarding a treasure of some sort.”De/buffs: Utopia Bandanna (+20% VIT and WIL.

Kurai was surprised to see his companion frown when she'd been nothing but pleasant so far. He felt a twinge of guilt from causing her usual demeanor to shift so suddenly. Not that he would show it aside from a slight furrowing of his brows and the frown on his face. He wasn't used to such genuine concern for his well-being from anyone besides his sister. “I wouldn't have done it if I didn't think I could handle it.”Thankfully the battle was going well despite the awkwardness between the two. Panya landed a massive blow to the large skeleton's head sending it reeling back. While it fell Kurai remained in the air with his glistening gooey wings flapping and sending the ooze splattering across the ground. With it in a prone position, he lashed out with his whip once more. The crack of the whip was accompanied by a blast of black energy emanating from the tip when it struck the creature's head. Things were going well, but it didn't remain that way for long as the boss suddenly swung its weapon at Kurai. The large scimitar slashed into his side sending him flying across the cave. Luckily it didn't do much damage due to the items he was wearing, but it did shred his Cloak and leave him sore all over. Seere sighed and aimed a blast of dark gray energy at the skeleton as it stood up. Although it connected it didn't seem to do much damage. “You should not be so overconfident, Summoner.”Kurai groaned in response as he regained his footing. “Yeah yeah I get it. Now let's finish off this damn thing already!” He flew through the air at the skeleton once more with a claw outstretched. His sharp nails slashed across the creature's ribs cracking off a few of them before another pentacle branded itself onto one of them. De/buffs: Demonic Tithe (+1 Rank MAG, -1 Rank VIT.

While Kurai appreciated Panya's concern the pain wracking his body didn't allow for pleasantries. As much as he wanted to push her away he couldn't bring himself to. Until his transformation was finished all he could do was mutter, “I'm fine. Worry about yourself.” Thankfully once the demonic power fully settled into his body Kurai was able to decimate the hoard of skeletons. Well almost. The last enemy that took multiple attacks from the men was still standing somehow. Another shot of dark gray energy from Seere felled the creature for good. “Thanks. Those levels came in handy. I just wish this buff didn't hurt so much to activate. Taking a rank penalty to Vitality is a bitch!”As Panya made her way over to the sarcophagus couldn't help but feel that they weren't done yet. “Alright. Just be careful. Who knows what else this place has in store?” As if he spoke it into existence a large skeletal hand popped out of the container as soon as she opened the lid. It quickly flung the cover across the floor before the enormous skeleton it was attached to stood up from its rest. When it swung its equally large sword at Panya he dashed towards her with his arm outstretched in an attempt to protect the woman. “Get down!” A red pentacle appeared in the air in front of the pair like a shield to block the weapon coming their way. “Lets hope this is the last of them,” he said as he leaped at the enemy. Kurais claws raked across the creature's head leaving gouges in their wake. The same red pentacle that protected them before burned itself over the area he struck doing even more damage to the skeleton. “Damn I kinda like this!”De/buffs: Demonic Tithe (+1 Rank MAG, -1 Rank VIT.

Seere hadn't stopped to think why the passersby knew this information or how they came across it. They were focused on getting the carriage hooked up in a rush so they could make it to the race. “I could not ask as I was preparing the vehicle. Perhaps they found this cave before they went to the race. If we see them again we should ask.” The demon was always on the hunt for more information. Panya did a great job knocking back the remaining three skeletons so they had room to breathe. Her hit also managed to do a decent amount of damage too! Looks like it was up to Kurai and Seere to finish them off. Not that he minded. This is just what he was hoping for after all. He still had plenty of things he wanted to try. Unlike Panya who was panicking slightly at the skeletons surviving her hit he was enjoying it. “Well if they're supposed to be weaker then we just need to get stronger than we're supposed to be! Shit, this is going to hurt...” Kurai let out a loud gasp and doubled over as the pain wracked his body. The demon gave him a knowing smile. This sort of thing was inevitable when dealing with their kind. His eyes sunk into his head until there was nothing but hollow holes in their place. A shiny viscous black ooze poured out of the craters on his face that flowed down Kurai's body. The substance covered his arms and legs leaving his torso untouched except for the pair of bat-like wings that sprouted from their back. Claws grew from each appendage and twisted goat horns from each side of his head. He threw his head up and let out a roar that echoed through the cave. It only took a moment for him to close the gap between him and the closest skeleton. With a swipe of his newly created claws, it's skull flew off its body. Kurai's voice sounded distorted as he spoke. “Not bad. I think I could get used to this. Whoa is that my voice? Sweeeeeet. Next up...” He quickly grabbed his newly acquired whip from his inventory before swinging it at his next target. A loud crack was heard as it struck the skeleton and split its skull in two. Kurai let out a cheer of celebration as most of the horde was demolished. “Damn this is going better than I thought!”While he was celebrating the last skeleton rushed at Panya with its bony arms outstretched. Thankfully Seere was paying attention during the ordeal and shot dark gray energy from their weapon to deter the creature. The blast landed on its side causing it to stumble before a bolt of black energy hit its chest. Somehow despite their best efforts, it remained standing. “Damn. Guess that one is still pretty weak.”De/buffs: Utopia Bandanna (+20% VIT and WIL. Resistance to Slashing, Piercing, Bludgeoning, and Fire damage.)

In Kurais's search for interesting-looking people, he saw quite a few characters. Most of them had a pride flag of some form on their body. Whether it be painted on, dyed in, worn, or waved around on a flag it was there. He had his own rainbow flag worn on his back like a cape of some superhero. It was his outfit and hair that drew the most attention from passersby, however. His signature blue caught the eye of a few people. Kurai thanked everyone for the compliment before they moved on. One of the people didn't immediately continue going about their business and looked like she wanted to continue to talk. Sure. Why not? She sounded sincere enough. The woman seemed much more plain than what he expected out of this festival. Kurai sort of respected her for that. She stood out in her own way. Good looking too... but not as good as the nachos he was shoving into his mouth. Once he was done chewing he answered her. He at least should show her that much respect. “Hey thanks! I like your style. Kinda tomboy. How are you liking everything so far?” It was then he noticed that all of her nachos were gone. Man, she could eat. Kurai quickly devoured his own while he listened to her response. De/buffs: Black And White (+10% VIT and Healing Effectiveness), Utopia Bandanna (+20% VIT and WIL.

Under normal circumstances, Kurai would agree that summoning a demon was pretty cool. Well, sort of. He was just trying to get back at his father. He didn't really want to bring a demon into the world! What was he going to do now?! This is so fucked up! “What does that even mean? Fit to be a summoner?” Fit to tell others what to do? To have others at his beck and call? While Kurai was busy being frustrated at their situation Yasuko was being much more useful. They managed to find the button that turned off the alarm and he muttered a low 'thanks' in return. His gratitude quickly faded away when the other young man explained and demonstrated their Class. As he watched them transform he had a scowl on his face. “Stop joking around, Yasuko. This is serious now. We could die here.”Reading the new messages that popped up made his mood even worse. Nobody knew what it was or what it wanted. Somehow things just kept getting worse. At least before Kurai had something to direct his hatred at, but now he was in the same situation with something he couldn't do anything to. The popups weren't doing much to help either. The tutorial felt like reading a damn novel. He never seemed to have the patience for a slow start to video games. Kurai would much rather be dropped in given the controls quickly, and be expected to figure out the rest. Why does everything have to be so long-winded? “Yeah yeah sure. Here. I'll add you to the party.” While he searched through the menus to find the option he needed Kurai decided on what to do. “Let's head to the lab and try to free those patients. Who knows what will happen if we don't do what it says? Then I guess we'll check the storage on the way out. Sounds like that's our only way out of here. If whoever is behind these messages can be trusted at least.” With the plan in place, he sent the party invite to Yasuko before heading back out the door. When he was back in the hallway Kurai motioned for the demon to follow them. “Alright. Let's get this over with.” Seere nodded and trailed their summoner while he moved in the direction of the lab.

Kurai couldn't help but smile when Hikari pointed out her horns. He'd never thought of his sister as a demon before, but he could see how others might. From the outside, she could seem cold. Hell with all the swords floating around her, she was pretty damn scary too. “Heh makes sense with this family. Every day was like hell.”He watched from his hiding place as the two women decimated a guard each. It was amazing to watch. Kurai had always considered Hikari the stronger one, but the scene playing out before him looked like one straight out of a video game. Was his sister always this good with swords? Hana was impressive as well. Not only did she handle a guard by herself, but she also drew the attention of the one he was supposed to attack. It likely would have flattened him if he had to take it on by himself like it was trying to do to her. Its arms swung down on her like a hammer striking a nail. When Hikari gave the signal both of the men jumped out with their weapons drawn. Seere pointed their spear at the robot that shot a dark gray bolt of energy from its tip. Kurai swung his mace like a baseball bat sending his own bolt of black energy at the last remaining enemy. Unfortunately, they didn't do much to deter the creature if they did anything at all. “Damn!

As Kurai and Seere spent more time with Panya her personality became more evident. Despite initially appearing shy if there was something that piqued her interest she had no problem asking questions or being adventurous. She also liked old-fashioned things. Not just because she was an archaeologist. It was the fact she took the torch from the demon instead of the flashlight the young man offered. Not that it was unexpected. “I did not hear much. While I was preparing our vehicle for the race I overheard a few young men talking about the cave. They did not mention what was inside. I hope you are correct and we find a relic.” While their reasoning may be different both Panya and Seere shared an interest in finding treasure. She seemed to want to put it in a museum or use it to benefit others, but the demon simply wanted to know its location and uses. Knowledge is power. Kurai was more focused on the other things they would find down here. Knowing Earth-Chan there was going to be some sort of monster down here with them. Which was most likely whatever was making that noise Panya heard. Good. He spent some time during the trip leveling up and was hoping he'd get the chance to test out his new abilities. “I'll go check it out. Get ready for anything.” Kurai turned to see where she was looking and used his flashlight to shine a bit farther than her torch. He didn't see anything at first, but after taking a few steps something appeared in his line of sight. A small horde of skeletons that were practically already on them! “Nothing can ever be easy, huh? Be careful!”By the time the words left his mouth one of the skeletons was swiping at Kurai. He'd seen them too late to avoid the first attack of the bony creatures. The skeletons were somewhat slow so he jumped back before the others could get hold of him. A blast of dark gray energy shot the one clinging to his shirt. “Damn things! Thanks Seere!” A blast of red energy shot out at the skeleton that stunned it just long enough for him to grab hold of its skull. The skeleton was pretty sturdy however as it continued to move around. He kept hold of the monster while the mark on the back of his hand branded itself into his opponent. The head crumbled away and the rest of the bones grew limp as the skeleton returned to death. “How are you holding up Panya?”De/buffs: Utopia Bandanna (+20% VIT and WIL.

Kurai let out a long string of curses before swiping at the popup that appeared in front of his eyes. He always hated that damn automated customer service response. What made it even worse was they threw in the word 'survival' as some sort of sick joke. While that was going on the mysterious man that suddenly appeared was being much more productive. Their spear quickly became embedded in the other guard's chest before exploding with dark gray energy. The force of the blast sent the body flying back into the room. With their summoner's opponents defeated they turned to face the young men they protected. As expected they had numerous questions. The tutorial of this game was unforgiving after all. “You are correct, Yasuko. It was Kurai whom I am contracted with and who has summoned me. I am duty-bound to protect him.”Before the man could explain further more screens appeared in front of Kurai like a video game tutorial. Now that he had someone to let out all his frustrations on about the situation he “What the hell is an Earth-Chan? That's the thing that kidnapped us and now we're just expected to put our lives on the line for something we don't even know?!” All of this was too much. How did anyone expect him to accept that life turned into a game? His life was out there, but this was just ridiculous! But how else could you explain everything that was going on? Technology was advancing day by day, but something like that wasn't possible, right? “Damn. Yeah... I guess I'm the summoner. Shit, does this have to do with that class selection thing before? What did I pick again? The Red Right Hand?” The mark on the back of his hand projected a red menu that looked like a character sheet from a game. Crap this was all real, wasn't it? The weird popups had a good plan for them to survive. They could figure this all out once they were safe. “Whatever these messages are is right. Let's get in there and then we can figure this out. Turn off this alarm while we're at it. Youuuuu.....” The man stood at attention as he gave his introduction. “I am known by many names. The Seventh Prince Of Hell. Graceful Traveler. Glint In The Dark. You may call me... Seere.” Kurai blinked a few times as tried to take Yasuko's hand. He gave the man a suspicious look and a wide berth as he made his way into the security room. “Stay out here and keep watch. Let us know if you see anyone else.” “As you command.”Once he, and hopefully Yasuko as well, were inside the room Kurai shut the door behind them. “I can't believe this is happening. I can summon demons now? Christ... What can you do?” He then began fiddling around with the menu projected from the back of his hand. De/buffs: N/A Used: N/A deedee yasuko

While Seere was excellent at gathering information about old or abandoned places Kurai focused more on things that sounded fun. After traveling around so many places he managed to hear about a festival going on in Los Angeles. It seems that a few members of the LGBTQ+ community were planning a get-together to celebrate those who survived into the new world. Why not go and see who he could meet? Having more reliable party members was never a bad idea after all. Though he wasn't sure how many reliable people he would find here. Each of the entrances was decorated with a large arch and banner that read 'LA Pride 2023'. Despite all his running away and sneaking around, this was his first festival outside of traditional events. Kurai was excited to see all the people with bright-colored hair like his. It was one of the few times he didn't seem so out of place. Upon entering he immediately set his sights on the first booth available to him. It was a food stand at which he ordered a plate of nachos. While Kurai ate his snack he began to look around the area for anyone of interest. De/buffs: Black And White (+10% VIT and Healing Effectiveness), Utopia Bandanna (+20% VIT and WIL.

With their race finished and their Sphinx Statue trophies collected Kurai and Panya decided to take a trip to some old ruins. Why break up such a good pair? Besides Seere figured the woman had more questions brewing in her mind. Her curiosity seemed just as vast as his own. Exploring something old was the perfect chance to answer them all. They'd just finished a race in the desert so why not continue in a similar area? Being the rumormonger that he is Seere managed to catch wind of a newly discovered area while walking around Motor City. To that end, the demon guided the pair to an underground cave in the nearby Badlands. The only thing he knew about their destination was its location. Kurai's mode of transportation this time was the pure black twin of the pegasus that their summon rode. Of course, they offered Panya a ride on either as well. When they arrived they both returned their mounts from whence they came. The site was fairly obvious as the cave mouth stuck out of the ground. Before going in Seere made sure to investigate the entrance. They couldn't see far before the darkness overtook their sight. “Our vision will be restricted when we descend into the ruins. We have torches you may use if you require,” they said to Panya. After which Kurai took a flashlight out of his inventory and offered one to her as well. “We'll go in whenever you're ready.”De/buffs: Utopia Bandanna (+20% VIT and WIL.

As Hikari asked about the demon Kurai was about to answer, but when he opened his mouth to speak he was cut off by Seere. “Yes. We are bound together by this so-called system.” “With more to come too! If my Class description is anything to go by at least. I gain favor with demons after doing certain things. Like missions and all that.”
Once again Kurai was about to speak when Hikari said something that caused a mischievous smile to spread across his face. Then Hana chimed in as well and he dismissively waved a hand in her direction. “Forget it. You're lucky Hikari just saved your wallet. She knows just what to say to get me on her side.” There was nothing that he enjoyed doing more than spiting their father.
Despite his sister's warning Kurai tried to think of what he would do about the bots because just hanging back and watching was boring. While he did so he decided to explain his Class a bit to Hana. Maybe he could get something out of her after all. “Well, I plan on leveling up real soon anyway. Maybe just as soon as we get out of here. My Class is called the Red Right Hand. It uses Defense and Magic. All of it revolves around summoning my demons so far. Seere is the only one I've been able to contract, however.”
Hana's plan seemed reasonable except for one thing: it didn't include him. Also she just up and disappeared. Whatever she wasn't what he was actually interested in anyway. She seemed fairly strange. In any case, Kurai and Seere found a safe spot to hide from the mechanical guards while Hikari and Hana dealt with them. As much as he hated to admit it he was severely underpowered for the current situation.

Once again Panya did all the heavy lifting when it came to solving the riddle. Despite the vast amount of information Kurai was forced to consume by his father during his life he wasn't very good at word problems. Long ones like the booming voice of the golem just recited to them were especially troublesome. Thankfully she was here to take care of the actual hard work. If not for her he likely wouldn't have made it this far. He'd have run into the large wall they encountered during the first riddle.
While Panya worked her way towards the answer Kurai kept a close eye on the giant looming in the distance. He didn't expect it to do anything until they answered, but you never know. At least they didn't have to maneuver around the crashed vehicle of their opponent. Not that it would be much of a problem since the pegasus was actually the one guiding the cart. They did have to swerve to stop from running into the massive boulder in the middle of the track, however.
Thankfully Panya came up with an answer fairly quickly. Now Kurai could only hope that she shouted out the correct one. Judging from the lack of a boulder being thrown at them it seemed she was right. He cheered once more when a finish line rose out of the track in front of them. “Panya you did it! We've finished the race!” He quite literally jumped for joy as they crossed the checkered line on the ground.
The cart slowed down until it finally stopped a few feet beyond the finish line. A much smaller golem than the one chucking boulders at the competitors rose from the ground nearby. It walked towards them all and attempted to hand each of the people in the vehicle a stone trophy. “Yo sweet! This will make a perfect souvenir!” Kurai laughed out loud and patted Seere on the shoulder. “So... Wanna team up again to go do something else Panya?”

Yasuko had a good point about hospitals doing all sorts of stuff in labs. Well, that was mostly in movies and stuff like that, but with the situation they found themselves in could Kurai really say it was all that unlikely? Everything seemed staged to get them to play along with whatever it was their captors wanted. “We'll probably have to check it out at some point to... 'save the patients' or whatever it was that mission wanted us to do.” He said with no small amount of disgust in his voice. As much as he hated it they'd have to play along to get out of here. For now at least.
Just when Kurai thought he saw a ray of hope in the situation things quickly turned sour for the pair. The security room that he thought would finally allow him to turn off the alarm instead turned out to have yelling people. “Shit. I don't know, but they weren't happy we were here. Why the hell would kidnappers leave a security room unlocked? I mean... that was them, right? Who else would be here?”
It didn't take long for the door he slammed shut just moments before to fling open again. Kurai quickly put a hand on Yasuko's chest and pushed them back as he backed away from the door. Once more the guards began yelling questions at them like 'Who are you people?!' and 'How did you get here?!' “What the hell? What do you mean?! You're the ones that brought us here!”
Or so he thought. The guns that were suddenly pointed at the two of them quickly changed his mind about that. Who would go through all the trouble of setting this up just to try to kill them? It made no sense.
Despite Kurai's familiarity with their previous situation, this new predicament was one he hadn't experienced before. Not from a kidnapper at least. With all the fights he got in it was inevitable that he ran into someone brandishing a knife or other such thing. However, he couldn't help but fear for his life when coming face to face with an actual deadly weapon.
Before he could react the pentacle that suddenly appeared on the back of his hand began to glow. Not that anyone could see it beneath the blazer he wrapped around it. That didn't stop the same mark from appearing on the ground in front of Kurai though. The smell of sulfur filled the hallway and the guards put their fingers on their triggers. He waved his arms in front of him causing the blazer to fall off his hand. “Hey! Whoa whoa whoa! There's no need for all this!”
Almost as soon as the words left his mouth the pentacle on the ground shot a pillar of red light into the ceiling. “What the hell is going on?!” Kurai didn't know what to expect next, but it certainly wasn't a spear thrusting out from the opposite side of the mark. The silver spear adorned with purple gems cut clean through one of the guns aimed at the pair before piercing through the throat of the man holding it.
“Holy shit...” That was all Kurai could manage to utter in response to the sheer absurdity of the situation. The red light emanating from the mark on the ground dissipated and what was left in its wake was a man. A man clad in heavy silver armor with gold trim and adorned with purple gems. Horns graced both sides of their head reaching above their short blonde hair.
They forcefully removed their spear from the guard's body and simply stood their ground in front of Kurai. With the sickening gurgle of a man choking on his own blood, the guard fell to the ground clutching their throat. The man kept his back to the pair as they spoke in a deep monotone voice. “So, at last we meet, Summoner.”
