Irium

"What!" Roswaisa yells at him as she looks at him with a scornful gaze. Well, I am not so vulgar as to do something like that so I just kick him in the knees while saying nothing, you know, perfect gentlemanly behavior.

"Hey, don"t you go shouting and hitting me. This is a perfect situation. I was afraid there for a second that Irium would become free to attract women again but this gave me some a.s.surance." He says as he nods while smiling as if he has realized something very important.

"Don"t get ahead of yourself." I, however, can"t let this man, who has considerably helped me by telling me about magic and Angels and whatnot yesterday, get his heart broken because he was deluding himself away from reality. "All your girlfriends are still going to leave you for me whether I have a fixed future wife or not. I"m sorry, but that"s how it is."

"Uh!" he seems like he"d try to retort but before he says anything,

"I think he"s right. You"d really benefit from facing the facts." Roswaisa supports my argument. I guess she feels a bit guilty to have this Sonohara rip-off as the target of her frustration two times by now and so is trying to help him as well. "You can"t get a girlfriend, not while this guy is around."

*****

Those a.s.sholes! They think I can"t get a girlfriend. Hah! How foolish!

"Hey miss, will you be my girlfriend?" I ask the lady at the counter of the grocery store I"m currently in to prove the two of them wrong. But for whatever reason, she is motioning the security guards to come here.

What"s wrong? I thought people liked to say these things with less people around, not more. Oh well, if she wants the security to be witness to the start of our relationship, that"s her choice. It"s not like I have any reason to feel shy about this anyway. This is, after all, the 98th time I have asked a girl out.

"Yes ma"am, what is it?" the security guards ask in a bold voice to which,

She says something to them through hand signs by showing a finger at me and then at the door. I don"t know what she is planning but whatever it is; I"ll wait for her to complete it. I"m an understanding man after all.

"Yes ma"am." As they say that, the guards hold me from both ends and try to alleviate me to a higher level. I find this experience of being carrying like this while my feet sail in the air to be quite comforting actually, that is, until I realize what they were trying to do was throw me out.

*****

Okay, if anyone asks, "Danny, why are your clothes dirty?" the answer is, "Kids playing soccer accidentally hit me and all the dirt on them got on me."

Yep, that"s the correct answer. Nothing like me getting thrown out of a grocery store by two freaking muscular men happened. That never happened at all, I don"t even know why thoughts like that are in my mind, it"s not like I have any experience with that happening, not like it"s the 98th time this has happened or anything like that.

Okay?

Okay.

As I am busy thinking about stuff like that, I fail to notice someone in front of me and b.u.mp into them.

We both fall on the ground. As I realize that I am not feeling much pain despite that, I try to take a look at the other person while saying, "I"m sorry" but then, for a moment as I look at the person in front of me, I am left unable to speak.

The person I b.u.mped into is a girl who might be as tall or ever taller than me. She has black hair long enough to reach her waist along with a pale skin and an oval-shaped face adorned by violet-almond eyes and a Greek nose. However, the most eye-catching aspect of her (literally) is a pair of GG-sized b.r.e.a.s.t.s. To add to that, she seems to be wearing a really tight Chinese outfit because of which, looking at those goliaths makes me feel like I am looking at two footb.a.l.l.s kept on plains while both of them are pressed tightly to each other.

All in all, I can without a doubt say that this woman is really, really seductive from her appearance. Maybe I should ask her out to flex on Irium?

"Would you watch where you are going?" she says in a disgusted voice and as she says that, all the charm she had done on me from her appearance gets washed away.

"I could say the same thing to you." I retort as I stand up and brush off the dirt from my clothes and then, start walking again. However,

"Wait, you jacka.s.s! You think you can talk to me in such a manner and escape unscathed." A maliciously evil presence starts emanating from behind me and I find a chill run down my spine because of its absolute coldness. "Who in the h.e.l.l do you think you are, huh, human?"

Human? The way she said that makes it feel like she is not human. Does that mean she is an Angel … or perhaps … oh c.r.a.p!

"NOW DIE!" she yells, which makes the whole crowd turn their gazes to us and as they do that, they see what happens next.

"AAAAHHHH!!!" I scream in pain as shock of at least 400 V runs through my body, coming from her finger it seems.

Only when all of that happens do I remember that my friend in Heaven warned me that a Demon has come to this city, a Demon that has absolute control over lightning and goes by the name of Aknin Vielos.
