《Crossing Over: Chronicles of DxD》Meeting With Hunters
Advertisement
A few hours has passed.
I ultimately came to my destination, exactly eight stations away. Time was about noon now, stepping off the train, the thing I thought of wasn't that this place reminded me of Kuoh. No, I became enthusiastic at the thought of getting my own peerage. Coming here will bring me closer to my goal.
From my knowledge of this world, especially the new devil faction. Those that can get their own peerage are 'high class devil' or above. What is a peerage? In simple terms it's a team, a team consisting of at most fifteen subordinates that are subservient to a master. The desire to become a master to a peerage can only be met by meeting the minimum condition. That is to be a high class devil.
By becoming a master can only be either good fortune or misfortune for the servants. The unfortunate ones don't become servants, rather, they become slaves. Sometimes they are turned into mindless beings by some form of corruption and such. I'm very well aware of one such being. Well, he'll meet his demise in the near future.
My goal is to become a master, a good one. The idea to be a bad one proves no benefits. I believe I've fulfilled the condition to become a master. Playing the part of a devil is easy, I can just impersonate one. and thanks to Necroussary Abyss I should have enough demonic power to pass as a high class devil.
The only problem now is get a senior devil to vouch for my rank up.
That's why I've left Kuoh to come here. If I remember correctly, the devil I seek has many hideouts in the human world and one of those hideouts should here in this town.
S.Sesa: ...And that why we came to see the game designer.
Ddraig: Devils making games? How the times have changed. I still remember the time when devils were an evil bunch. Now they making games and having tea party's.

S.Sesa: HAHAHA! Right on, the world has changed..... This is a world where God and Satan have died.
Ddraig : WHAT? When did God die? At the war of the three factions?
S.Sesa: You don't know?
Sesa: It's probably because the red one and the white one got sealed in sacred gears. They wouldn't know about it since it's the biggest secret of the three factions. Well the biggest secret that only those on the top know.
After I step off the train and onto the platform I swiftly maneuver to a spot that won't leave me trapped in the crowd. Finding a place and standing against the wall, the coldness at my back is seeping through the denim jacket. Does it bother me? No, my body isn't fragile.
My mind is drawn to the clothes that I'm currently wearing. Denim jeans, White t-shirt and a denim jacket. I must say, 'I look pretty sweet in this get up.'
Getting back on track, I see many people moving in one direction. Many are taking the stairs going up. 'That must be the exit', I guess. Putting my hands in my pocket I pull out my phone. Lighting up the screen, I see that the page I was looking at this morning is still present. The address as well as the game designer's profile is present also.
A picture of the game designer is right before my eyes. A young looking man with slick green hair that is combed back, the hair reminded me of the dark green color of a swamp. Even so, the man himself wasn't at all ugly. Under his picture, his name was printed. It read as A. Astaroth.
Scrolling futher down the game he designed was described. It was titled, Craft Hunter Go. Anyways, I skip that and check for the address again.
Ddraig: Is that guy really a devil? I don't see why he would support you as a backer.
Sesa: It's a risky move but I think we'll succeed.

I'm positive that I'll succeed. Walking out towards the stairs I come back to ground level. I pull out my phone out again to use the GPS before moving again.
Following a certain direction and taking into account the similarities as well as differences this town has with Kuoh, I find this place a little more active. While taking quick steps I notice a group pointing the camera's of their phones at me.
I'm not Japanese, so people taking photos of a foreigner is mot at all surprising. I ignore them and carry on passed them...
????: Ugh! Another trash human appeared.
????: You're a trash human as well.
????: Don't rub it in. I was hoping for a feisty little angel to appear but it's really hard to catch 'em all.
????: Yeah, I only slaved one weak-ass youkai.
"Eh!"
'Are they talking about me?'
'Detect' of my cursed gear didn't pick up any malice from the group I passed but they certainly making points about the supernatural.
S.Sesa: I dont think they were wrong about the trash human part, Hahaha!
Ddraig: Hahaha! Agreed.
Shaking my head, I ignore my double and the red dragon. After taking a few steps I completely stop my trek. I just remembered something.
Craft Hunter Go! It's exactly like I've read in the original. When the Gremory team came here they were also met with cameras pointing at them, even their power rankings was being read. Could it be that this group be playing the same game? Looks like I have to turn back to meet them.
"Sorry guys!" I call out, at the same time I make my way back to them. 'They didn't hear me', I thought before again calling. "HEY! CAN I HAVE MOMENT OF YOUR TIME?"
They looked me startled.
Clearly they didn't expect that I would call them, perhaps they were looking down on me a little to much. After all, one of them did call me a trash human.
????: Are you talking to us? Do you need something?
????: We don't have time for this.
S.Sesa: (What you say mutherfucker!)
Ddraig: (Easy now. Starting a fight will get us no where.)
S.Sesa: (You talking from experience.)
Sesa: Yeah! I heard you talking about a game. Are you playing Craft Hunter Go?
????: How-how do you know that game?
????: Are you a hunter to- OW!!!
Sesa: Actually, I know someone who came across it. For some reason I can't be in contact with that person at the moment. That's why I came all the way here.
????: ...
????: ...
After saying a few words, the two guys look at me with a serious expression. Even the guy that was minding his own business lifted his head away from his phone and stared at me with a penetrative glare.
Did they figure out that I'm here for alternative reasons? I didn't ly though. I really do know someone who was told about the game (Issei). And it is true I can't be in contact with him at this time. The words I used aren't lies so they shouldn't suspect me of falsity.
Sesa: Sorry, did something happen? Your stares are not so friendly.
????: What do you know about the game?
Sesa: Huh! Well.... I've never played it. You can say that the game is a bit more than a game. From what I remember, any character stats that it can display on screen may very well be stats of a person in real life.
????: So you do know somewhat. Sorry about that. Brother, you may call me Bradley. My friends here are Tommy and Ryan
Tommy: Yo!
Ryan: Good day.
Bradley: If you haven't been in contact with your friend in a while then he is probably not in this world anymore. Most of us, if not all, are beta testers to Craft Hunter Go but that's not all. We are hunters in real life too. We hunt-
Tommy: Monsters! Real monsters.
Sesa: !?

Legendary Farmer (available on Kindle July 2022!)
NOTE: Legendary Farmer is now COMPLETE. The first book, Clearing, was released on Kindle Unlimited July 5, 2022 with significant edits. I will post the first chapter of Clearing, as well as three chapters of Cuckoo's Dream, another novel in the LF universe, as a stub, with a link to the first book, so if you love LF and want me to be able to keep writing consistently, please go give Clearing five stars! In the VRMMORPG, Veritas Online, things are getting a little stale. Since the game launched, only one world- wide event has occurred, and that was a year ago.. The players are still having fun, but everyone agrees it’s about time for something big to happen. Everybody tends to forget that big things grow from small things, and little things are always changing in Veritas.The human country of Quarternell is at peace for the first time in... ever. Aspen, a former war hero, feels like he’s earned a quiet life together with his animal companions. They’re tired of fighting, and other people in general. They plan to live peacefully, far away from the city. As soon as Aspen figures out this farming thing out, he’s never going to go anywhere again. Unfortunately for Aspen, his country and his goddess aren’t quite done with him yet.Rouge the Rogue is a casual gamer in Veritas Online. She’s just a kid, and her focus is supposed to be on school and hanging out with friends. Emphasis on ‘supposed to’. She’s already pretty good at the school thing, and she doesn’t actually have that many friends. What she really loves is exploring all the cool ways the developers of Veritas found to make their game unique and realistic. Then she’s offered a very special quest, and an opportunity to go beyond the average player. She’s never been that much of a rule follower anyway....Clearing is appropriate for most ages. It has minimal foul language, no sex, and some violence. It is LGBTQ+ friendly. (P.S. IMPORTANT! This book contains very mild profanity, no sex, and is meant to be FUN. Yes, the characters sometimes think Deep Thoughts, and idealism pretty much runs rampant, but, in the end, I hope you just enjoy reading it. Laugh, cry, share it with your kids, read it to your dog, whatever makes you happy. My goal is for it to be accessible to everyone from ages 12ish on up, so you could definitely consider it YA, but with lots of big words because I don't believe in talking down to my readers.) Book Two: Harrowing (Starts after the original Chapter Fifty, now Sixteen, since I condensed chapters from the same perspective together.) Zoey has started her summer internship at Veritas Corporation, and she can honestly say that being an adult is boring. Until she starts learning secrets she was never supposed to know. In game, Rouge is finally making progress on her big quest. Apparently Duke Penbrooke took too long to return to the world, so the world is coming to get him... in the form of a few assassins. Aspen is going to have to face the life he left behind, and deal with the fact that it's not as easy being 'dead' as he thought. When what he'd hoped would be a short trip back to civilization to resupply turns into a whole lot more, he'll have to fight for his life, his friends, and his kingdom. Book Three: Sowing Rouge and Aspen have reached Bright, only to find that their enemies were already expecting them. They will have to quickly unravel the mysteries of who their opponents actually are, because they're already ten steps behind. Rouge and Aspen are finally home, but that doesn't mean they can return to their peaceful days of farming. Their enemies are hot on their heels and determined to destroy everything they've managed to achieve. Join them and all their friends for the final volume of Legendary Farmer.
