《THE TRIALS: Path Toward Godhood. (WARNING : MATURE CONTENT)》INTERLUDE 5: A DATE
Advertisement
THOSE EVENTS HAPPENED FEW DAYS AFTER INTERLUDE 3:
It's was night. The light of the city illuminated the sky. In a zone a little away corner of said city, a large white mansion stood in the center of a forest.
This forest was encircled by large walls with the name Yaoyorozu engraved on a plaque, showing that not only the mansion but all the three around were private propriety of the Yaoyorozu family. At this level, saying that they were rich was an understatement. They were PLUS ULTRA rich.
In one of the many, MANY, rooms of this large mansion, a girl was standing in her underwear as she was having an existential crisis.
Around her, three young maids were showing her different clothes and accessories, but each they showed one, she would shake her head in disapproval.
One should understand that the cost of any of those clothes was enough for a middle class to simply eat and drink do no work for at least a few months. That's how expansive they were. What more she didn't only have one or two of such clothes but a truckload of them.
The maids were also felling helpless in this situation. Each of them was an university-level students with a phd before they received specialized training to become maids of the family.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the grooming they received would make them the darling of any society and they could even create their own business.
Despite all of this, no training ever taught them how to deal with a girl who was preparing for her first date with her crush. Finally, more tired than they would have thought, one of them spoke,
"Ojou-sama. Please, could you tell us what you require exactly? Perhaps you know some of Hayate-sama preferences?"
Momo, who was having a headache, stopped to consider a little. She didn't want to appear too gaudy in front of him. At the same time, she didn't want to appear too cheap either.
Even though she meets Kuroha many times, the situation was different now. She already officially declared her love.
Finally, after a while and made a gut pose. She had made her decision and was sure that he would love it.
"I will..."
--------
The next morning, at exactly 9h30 am, Momo was nervously seating in a cafe, waiting for Kuroha as she keeps fidgeting in her seat.
She would have loved to do like in Manga and stand for hours under the sun or the biting cold to wait for him outside, but, even though she was used to wearing revealing clothes now, cold was still cold. She didn't have their resistance.

Yesterday, she finally decided to go with something a little complicated but beautiful nonetheless in her opinion.
Firstly, she totally avoided white. She didn't know why, but Kuroha really loafed this color. Since he liked wearing black clothes, she decided to follow his example.
She briefly wondered how he will feel while wearing U.A uniform. She even wondered sometimes how he felt like when he looked at his face in a mirror. His hair was pure white after all. Still, she never asked him this question. It sounded too much like a provocation.
Her dress was made out of crimson and black frills, giving her the appearance of an elegant Gothic Lolita with a ponytail tails. She completed the still with black stockings that stopped just a little after her thigh.
(AN: For those who want a better image of her clothes. I copied the spirit clothes of Kurumi Tokisaki from Date a Live.)
Those colors were his favorite. She was sure that he would love it.
She didn't have to wait long. He entered the cafe twenty minutes before the time they agreed.
Once he saw her, he wore a surprised expression before he begins to walk in her direction and took the seat in front of her. Once seated, He apologetically smiled,
"Sorry, it seems like I'm late. I hope I didn't make you wait too long."
She waved her hand frantically as she denied,
"No, no. You're perfectly on time. I also just come here."
The snickers suddenly coming from one of the waitresses that was coming toward their table made a deep shade of red cover her face? After all, those girls saw her enter and wait here more than one hour ago.
"Hello customer, what can I take your order?"
Kuroha asked her to serve him some cake and a chocolate parfait. Momo smiled, his love for the sweet thing was one thing she found cute about him and could understand. After all, their power required them to eat a larger amount of food than most people.
While Kuroha was giving his commands, she looked at him a little dazedly. He was nothing like how he was in the past. The past him was a little scrawny but now he was rather tall for someone their age and nicely filled the clothes he wore. He was simply becoming more handsome as year passed.
Her eyes fell on his neck and there she saw a black collar around his neck. She tilted her head in wonder. She also remarked that his style seemed a little wilder than usual. When the waitress went away, she asked

"I never saw you wearing a collar. What made you buy it?"
This question may seem weird to most, but she knew him. Kuroha was a boy who rarely changed anything that he didn't need to. If not for her and sir Nighteye insistence he wouldn't even bother buying different kinds of clothes and would wear the same style of clothes every day as if he couldn't afford new ones.
She saw him touch this collar with a confused expression as he said,
"I don't know. I was passing by a store when I saw it and suddenly thought that it would suit me... It doesn't?"
The puppy look he had on his face as he said this was like an arrow piercing her heart. She nearly crouched down on defeat. A man shouldn't be able to act this cute. She once again shook her head in fluster
"No!!! it suits you perfectly. I was just curious."
"*phew* Thanks. I"m happy that you like it."
She was dazed by the smile he let as he thanked her.
After the waitress came back with the parfait and cake, Kuroha began to eat calmly.
Momo was so happy that she couldn't even taste her tea. After a while, they paid and left the cafe in order to go watch a film.
She was bewildered why she needed to do so since she had a room with a projector in her house, but the maid assured her that going to a true cinema would be far more romantic.
The bustling crowd was like a sea. Despite the cold, the street was crowded.
"Give me your hand."
She didn't have the time to answer before Kuroha took her hand. Once again, she blushed heavily. She understood why he did that, but that didn't stop her heart from beating hard in her chest.
Internally she made a gut pose. She really did well listening to her maids. Seem like they should receive a raise.
The film they choose to see was a historic/romance/drama.
During the story, she couldn't help but tear up a little, and she wasn't the only one. She could hear the sniffle resonating in the room from time to time.
After that, they went to an amusement park. The one they choose was one extremely expansive. What more, money wasn't enough. One also needed a certain status to enter.
You could literally call it a VIP amusement park. Still, this wasn't a problem for her. After all, this park was privately owned by her family. As such, she could enter it whenever she wanted to.
Thanks to the strict requirement, there were few young people present. Some of the boys tried to come and chat her, but once they saw her face and recognized her identity, they wisely let her alone with Kuroha. They also didn't forget to cordially salute him.
She smiled a little. True young masters from noble families were raised to be smart and discerning. They wouldn't show their status openly.
Not because they were timid or not arrogant, but because doing so was simply foolish. They wouldn't boot-lick others either because doing so would be a stain on their family honor.
The date in the amusement park was really funny. They went to different attractions and roller coaster. Even though those weren't enough to really scare them, it was still interesting.
When they finished playing and left the park, it was already twilight. They slowly walked close to each other with the setting sun on their back. It was really a beautiful and romantic scene.
Finally, seeing the black limousine stopping not far from them, she knew that the date was coming to the end. As such, she took two fast steps and stood in front of Kuroha before tiptoeing and giving him a kiss on the right cheek.
"Thanks for today. I was really happy."
Kuroha let out an awkward smile before saying,
"It is I who should thank you. I wasn't in a good mood recently. But this date with you calmed me a great deal."
"Thank you!!!"
She smiled before walking toward her car. She was really happy, but at the same time a little disappointed. After all, Kuroha never...
"Momo!!!"
She stopped,
"Your dress was really beautiful."
It was said in an awkward way but, those words were what she had always wanted to hear today. She turned to face him before giving him a bright smile and then entering the car. Now, this date really had a perfect end.

Luck Lockyer
Luck Lockyer was the type of man to smirk in the dark, the expression not for anyone but himself. One of perpetual amusement. The bright side of things were hard to find in the shade yet his amber eyes were always searching. The smirk was his default, he knew it, his friends knew it, his family knew it. It was his most natural state. But the death of everyone close to you can affect a downwards curve on the mouths of even the most stoic people. Without purpose, without anyone to do the job for, Luck Lockyer found himself inside an empty forgotten church. The perpetual smirk on his face had slipped to a thin line, his scar more noticeable now than ever before. His amber eyes, the windows to his soul, dull and lifeless. To anyone who knew him, it was the clothing that gave away his mental state, denim pants and a plain black t-shirt. If that wasn't enough, the tears running down his face certainly would, the echoing sobs of a broken man rang across the rundown church. It was on a whim, but Luck Lockyer prayed, he prayed for many things, for death, revenge, friends, but the one prayer dominating his thoughts, a second chance for his family. That was all he wanted. Simple. It was then, on the outskirts of a polluted city, in an abondoned lot, in a forgotten church that Luck Lockyer, the Devil of the Cards, the Bloodless Hand, the Amber Demon, the Broken, was answered by a being from another world and one from his. *found the picture online
