"well i got it as a gift but i only recently started playing"
The three of them had taken a seat as saito tried to clear up the misunderstanding. Arata and Mika had constantly urged Saito to play the game but after a while both of them had given up convincing him.
"You should jump on every now and then its quite fun"
Saito let out a sigh of relief, he couldn't be bothered to share the event which he had unwillingly gone through.
"Anyways im alright besides ill be back in school soon enough, so you dont have to worry"
"i hope thats true, anyways me and Mika have to get back to school so take care of yourself"
Soon after the two left leaving Saito in his apartment.
"i guess ill be meeting Kyoko's father tomorrow"
Saito took as seat and turned on the television as he laid back and tried to find a comfortable position to rest in. after a while his eyes began to slowly shut as he drifted into sleep.
*Tv* "There have been reports of Students from Seren high remembering class mates who seem to have disappeared, an investigation was carried out proving that these students did attend Seren High however it seems that the investigation was dropped due to unknown reasons. We also have information about the movement of Behemoth, it seems they are helping Light achieve their goals by giving them a hand. The cult (Light) has openly claimed that Lucifer will be revived, yes you heard right Lucifer the fallen angel. it is up to you do decide whether they are a bunch of fanatics or a real threat but know this we will always have people out there who are willing to risk their lives to help...."
-------------------------------------------
Oh so those idiots are back how lucky they managed to stay in school, well it doesn't matter they are just stepping stones. The one named Saito has been expelled huh, well thats what he gets for trying to get in my way i get what i want when i want and no one has the right to tell me i am not able to do so.
Kyoko gazed at Mika and Arata whilst smirking.
"Useless worms"
it was quite surprising though, how did Saito manage to display such moves when facing against Takeo. He was trained in martial arts and has quite the talent for it.
Kyoko thoughts drifted as she tried to make sense of the situation but she couldn't help but shiver as the image of Saito appeared in her head.

it doesn't matter besides he isn't coming back any time soon. Ooh i cant wait until i get my hands on the demon remains, i wonder what type of equipment i will be able to craft with legendary materials. it would be good if i got my hands on some chest plate and a sword from the Demon Horn, i will be able to get one step ahead of the other major powers on Grand Quest.
Tomorrow i will be able to meet the original holder of the demon remains, i wonder what type of situation caused him to get his hands on such materials. and has he actually met the one eyed wanderer. heh haven't i got quite a lot of questions which need answering maybe i should invite him to the Myriad, he could prove to be useful in the future.
After school had ended Kyoko arrived home and headed towards her fathers office.
"Dad i wanna meet the seller as well so send a driver for me after school, and hold onto the seller until i arrive"
"Sure thing ill make sure you meet him tomorrow"
Ok now thats dealt with ill need to check up on my guild, after all we were going to raid a dungeon today.
"Kyoko why dont you spend some quality time with your dad today"
"haven't we already talked about this?"
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day Saito arrived at the designated destination chosen by Sasaki. Saito was currently sitting on the same table as Sasaki who had two well build men standing behind him.
"Are you trying to intimidate me?"
Saito flicked a glance towards the two body guards.
"My apologies i didn't mean to frighten you, they are here to keep me safe from harm after all these old bones cant protect themselves"
Thats strange i was expecting him to be a bit more arrogant, but it seems he has manners unlike her daughter. or is it because he isn't aware of my identity.
Saito hadn't put on any contact lenses or hair color.
"If you dont mind may i ask about you unique features?"
"Ah well i was born that way, im not very fond of it though infact I've hidden it up until now"
Sasaki frowned as he apologized.
"it must have been quite hard for you, but why choose to reveal it now"
Its strange for some reason i feel like Sasaki is genuinely friendly, Kyoko doesn't deserve someone like him as her father.
"Well its been bothering me for quite a while but i guess i cant hide it forever"

i feel slightly bad for lying to him.
"Well anyways about the materials, i plan on buying it from you but it seems you were unwilling to sell it to me. is there a way i can change your mind?"
"Well i didn't really plan on selling it but if the price is appropriate i might be able to change my mind, besides my future is in a critical condition i recently left school"
Maybe i shouldn't have said that, but its fine if my identity gets revealed I could use the opportunity to get back into school. well it's not like I was doing anything in school but Mika and Arata seemed worried.
"i that so, well let's get strait to the price the highest bid on your items was $250,000 and I am willing to offer $300,000"
Wait the price had already reached that stage?, $300,000.....
Saito's eyes gave out a glint of surprise for a second before it retracted back to normal.
"well, i guess that fine with me but.."
"if there is anything else i can provide i will do so immediately"
"As i said i have recently been expelled from school and with your status i am sure it would take a few connections to get me back in"
Saito gazed at Sasaki as he revealed his intentions.
"Might i ask why you were expelled"
"i prefer to keep that to myself"
Sasaki placed his hand on his chin whilst drifting into thought
"i could use some of my connections to get you back in so it wouldn't be a problem"
*Ring Ring*
"Could you give me a moment please"
Sasaki reached into his pocked and took out his phone
"hello sweetie, ah yes we are still here. your about to arrive?, alright we are waiting for you"
Well this got a bit complicated judging by his tone that was Kyoko, i guess ill just have to sit and enjoy the expression on her face once she gets here.
"That was my daughter, she wanted to meet you if thats alright"
"Its alright with me but.."
Saito stopped himself from finishing the sentence, a light smile was shown on his face as he shifted his gaze from Sasaki and onto his phone surfing through the internet. a few minutes went by as Kyoko arrived with a driver behind her, she made her way towards the table and took a seat.
"Are you the seller?"
Kyoko examined Saito with a confused expression.
"Yes is there anything wrong with that?"
Saito placed his phone down as he smiled and set his sight on Kyoko
"No but i think I've seen you before, i just can't remember where"
Saito let out a soft laugh
"i get that a lot"
She must be blind, does she not remember my face. well i can blame her she hasn't seen me with white hair and pink eyes before.
"Well that doesn't matter, have you managed to but the items dad"
"I was able to settle with a reasonable price"
Kyoko completely ignored Saito's presence and started a conversation with her father. but after a while Kyoko's attention was diverted back to Saito.
"Oh your still here, since we've met by chance you must feel quite lucky"
"Lucky?"
Saito looked at Kyoko with a puzzled expression.
"Well of course you are, after all, i am inviting you to join the Myriad as a Rookie. Usually, people beg to join us even as servants but there's hardly enough space lately"
Saito burst into laughter, he couldn't believe the scene that was getting unraveld before his eyes.
this is quite comical how does such an arrogant bitch exist on this planet, does she really think i will gladly kiss her feet and accept her offer.
"Whats funny?"
Kyoko glared at Saito as she stood up.
"Sweetie lets not cause a commotion here"
Kyoko completely ignored her fathers words as she continued to intensely glare at Saito.
"Well do you really think i would gladly accept your offer?, how deluded are you"
Saito continued to laugh as he stood up from his chair to confront kyoko.
"YOU!"
Without a word of warning Kyoko's fist swung towards Saito, but yet again for some reason everything had slowed down it almost seemed as if time stopped.
This again its almost as if the world has stopped spinning, but thats not whats bothering me right now what is this urge. this urge for revenge the thirst for destruction.
Saito's pupils had changed colour yet again but this time it looked sinister as if the flames of hell were burning inside them. in a mere instant Saito had appeared behind kyoko and with a swift movement, his hand flew towards Kyoko piercing the air. it was as if a sword was cutting through the air swinging towards kyoko's neck, just as it was about to reach her neck Saito's movements stopped.
No i dont want this, whats going on.
[But it is what you desire..]
