Sorry this came out a bit too late, I didn’t get the chance to finish this yesterday

(Part1)

Houser rests his body on a tree and stares at the clear and quiet sky. With the moon and all the stars out there, it wasn’t possible for the forest to be completely dark. It was quite peaceful right now.

Houser gives into empty thought and sighs at the situation he's in now. Right behind him were two sisters playing happily with each other as they clean their bodies, stark naked.

Not thinking much about it, Houser goes straight into planning. Aside from knowing his destination he doesn’t know what to do. The village won’t just kindly take travelers for free, he needs money. Although he doesn’t know the currency of this world yet, he still needs to find ways to make some pocket change.

Hunting is always a profession, Houser hopes the demand of jobs for hunters is high enough to pay off their daily needs. With Adelia on his side, hunting shouldn’t be hard at all, and he will get to practice his magic more. Even though the chances of ending up as a hunter is high, he’s going to verify things once he gets there.

Now for another issue.

The girls. Yes the girls. The trip will be long and all, but that isn’t what’s his worried about. The issue is how is he going to take in a demon girl in the village. Leaving Adelia outside on her own is too dangerous, no matter how monstrous she is. After all, these are humans we’re talking about.

He was thinking of her pretending to be his slave, not like she already isn’t, and hope that will keep them away. There are too many flaws in this plan. First off, how can he prove he owns Adelia? He needs some kind of seal or proof or anything that states Houser owns Adelia. Even if he gets something, the villagers could always try to snatch her away. If they are, they are going to have the time of their life, but it will still be annoying. A mine village isn’t making this thought process any easier.

Next up is Aisha. Unlike her, Adelia have many valuable uses, she’s strong and kind of reliable. As much as he hates to admit, she will be useful to him. But Aisha… She’s still a kid, no that’s exactly why, she’s still a kid. What can she do? Although Houser is yet to see her in action, he doesn't expect much from her. She was raised alongside demons, she might surprise him. His expectations better not be cut down, he’s not really willingly to take in a weight bag.

[Adelia] “Sir Houser. Sorry for for the wait. We are now finished here now. Please go ahead.”

Sir huh… Better than Master I guess…

[Houser] “No need. As soon as you two are ready will continue along.”

We still had to be careful for their rags to dry up as well… As for now, they have to wait completely nude. Lucky for them, it’s a pretty warm night.

Having no choice, we decided to spend the night here. Without any shame at all Adelia roams around to collect wood with all her privates exposed and makes a fire. Letting them sleep like really bothers me, so I hand them over my coat to cover themselves up. The robe is pretty big, so it had no problem covering the two girls.

I asked if it’s really safe to be camping out here, Adelia said no and offers herself to stand guard. I, of course, refused her proposal. They are in a worse condition than me, both mentally and physically. Although they did get quite the nap as I was carrying, it still doesn’t cover the days or maybe weeks they’ve been through. They both must be exhausted. I have no need for broken people.

[Houser] “I’ll stand guard as you sleep. We move at sunrise, understood?”

[Adelia] “Umh… I think I really need…”

[Houser] “I don’t like to repeat myself. Just rest!”

Houser turns and angrily glares at Adelia. His sudden stare surprised her, flustered her, and then cowers down with her sister.

A little confused at her second reaction, he immediately notices his mistake. What was in front him was a dark haired beauty under the moonlight with everything a woman has to offer. Although he look into her eyes, he got a good image of her face and a glimpse of her slender shoulders. She gave off the feeling of a cool beauty with her deep red eyes that could penetrate through anyone and the water dripping from her hair was too provocative, surely anyone would fall prey to such scene.

Indeed she caught Houser off guard. He has to admit, if he was still looking for a relationship, he would surely try his best to get closer to her.

Walking away as nothing happened, Houser stands in his post and spends the whole night as look out.

As expected, the night didn’t go so smoothly, monsters kept popping out. Not wanting to deal with these guys all night, I pointed them at the location where the 2 sisters were sleeping with their heads popping out of my robe with an evil grin. As soon as they saw Adelia, they began to tremble so hard that tears even came out. I gave them a “Now what?” face and they quickly fled the area. I spent the night doing this routine.

Sun rises, birds’ chirps, and monster’s cries wakes the forest. I wake up the girls and we quickly move on to our destination.

There still some ground I need to cover. Now that I’m in human territory doesn’t mean to i get to rest easy, actually to be more precise, it makes me more uneasy. Aside from my hate to these guys. This world looks more complicated and annoying than my own, everyone follow their own beliefs. Either good or bad, it’ll be troublesome to handle these guys. My best route is to adapt here as soon as possible to venture out in this world.

Whatever problems this place may be on, I’ll just stand and see on the sidelines.

(Part 2)

Red Corporation HQ

12 men has gathered on the same night as Adelia’s village incident. Now together, they do nothing but grit their teeth with anger as they hear the report from a purple dressed masked lady. She had quite an explosive body, but the men weren’t in the mood to admire her body. She too was upset about the incident, but nobody could tell what she was thinking or feeling with that mask.

The room was dark enough to cover their appearances towards each members. Even though they work for the same organization, there seems to be a lack of trust around its members.

[Member A] “Those imbeciles! Not only they disobeyed orders, they had been completely annihilated by the demon army!"

[Member B] “Looking at our loss. It’s thrice the amount from our gain. All the tools and items we provided to those fools are now property of the demons.”

[Member C] “Indeed… Our lost is too huge. We could barely care about their incompetent lives, all the items were high class."

[Member B] “I wonder… isn’t the way they got caught a little off?”

[Member A/D] “What do you mean?”

[Member E] “He’s right… It’s just too off… No matter how much idiotic they were, it doesn’t make sense for them to not notice an ambush.”

[Everyone] “Nod* Nod*”

Something is not adding up. Humans are not out of date with information regarding about the demons. They are aware of their formation and ways to get their information. What could have really happened back then?

[Masked Woman] “Unless someone else was involved.”

[Everyone] “!!?”

Breaking the ice, the masked woman coldly states to the meeting. Although she was only meant to report to them, she was still let to stay. It seems like it was a good decision to do so.

[Member F] “That’s it! But who?”

[Member G] “A demon spy?”

[Member B] “No, they had multiple items that could easily detect it. Whatever it was, it must have brought a commotion, therefore distracting them and not noticing the ambush”

[Member E] “To end up with a conclusion so quickly… You never change do you? But what you did say made some sense.”

[Member A] “We have gotten an idea of the situation. After the situation has quieted down, we’ll send people there to investigate. That is all!”

The meeting has come to an end. Everyone leaves their seats and proceeds to the exit. They were very angry, extremely angry. The organization and themselves had made a huge lost, and now that the demons have access to study their technology, they are forced to make changes, which will cost even more money!

As the angry mob find their way out, the masked woman stays behind with Member A. Now that they’re both alone, the man jumps on top of her, struggling her neck, as he demands.

[Member A] “You bitch! You knew something was bound to happen! Why didn’t look out to them like you were supposed to! You probably let them get caught by the demons as they take our merchandise from them. What are you planning…!”

[Masked Woman] “Gasp*... Sir… It is true I stayed on the sidelines and did nothing but watch, but that boy…

[Member A] “Huh? What boy!? Speak woman!”

[Masked Woman] “That boy… He saved and protected that demon from our men… I was being careless, but I wasn’t expecting such a scene…”

[Member A] “A human saving a demon? What kind of bad joke is that!? Even if it’s true, how could that not let you notice that many demons closing in!”

[Masked Woman] “It was shocking enough to see a human be in a village of demons, she was also part of one of their families. Another human popped out of nowhere. You could clearly see he was inexperienced, yet was enough to fight them all off. It was just too weird… That human was too weird.

Finally letting go, the man furiously kicked anything on his path, he glared at her assistant one more time and scowl with full hatred.

[Member A] “Useless! This is why women are useless! Send men to chase after that boy! I want him dead! Keep this classified no matter what. Are we clear!”

[Masked Woman] “Gasp*... Right away…”

[Member A] “Go!”

She gets on her feet and immediately reaches out the door.

She coldly stared at empty space, she was furious. If things went as planned, his seat would be in danger by now. She was planning for the hunters to be caught from the beginning, but unnoticed. She wanted the blame to go him, everything was perfectly planned out. Before she could execute her plan, Houser popped out and things go wrong. She couldn’t help being distracted by the scenes he made.

Thanks to him, things will be more complicated now, but will succeed in the end no matter what. Her goal was to destroy Red Organization. She has a deep grudge against these people and can’t wait to see their expressions as their organization!

She makes her way out the room with an wicked expression.

[Member A] “Hey. I wasn’t talking to you.”

He coldly says as he unhesitantly stabs the woman in her left kidney .

[Masked Woman] “...!!? How…?”

Without finishing her sentence, she drops to the floor as blood floods on the area. She blankly looks up to his murderer with a dizzy expression.

[Member A] “Women should really learn their place. Did you really think I didn’t noticed you were plotting against me? Hah! You’re a million years too young to compete with me!”

[Masked Woman] “...”

[Member A] “I must say… What a waste for such a body to go waste. You would make a high quality slave. After all, women are good at nothing but serving men Hahaha!!!”

[Masked Woman] “...”

[Member A] “Maybe I should have a taste before it turns cold? Kyahahaha. Don’t worry. I had my men put a soundproof barrier before they left. We get to enjoy ourselves as much as we can! Stay awake till the end would you? Kyahahaha!”

[Masked Woman] “Fufufufu…”

[Member A] “!!?”

Dumbfounded, he stares as the woman’s body vanishes in thin air, feels a presence and tries to jump away, it was futile. In a matter of seconds, he gets stabbed in the back his shoulder. Screaming in pain, he falls to the ground and rolls over to get some distance, but was stopped as the woman gets on top of him. Rubbing her crotch against his, she wickedly giggles and provocatively swirls her hair.

[Member A] “...! Illusion magic…”

[Masked Woman] “Good job.”

[Member A] “Whatever your goal is, you’ll never get it if you kill me!”

[Masked Woman] “Who said anything of me killing you?”

4 men with dark clothing appears at the scene.

[Member A] “!!? You… But why…!?”

They were the people he sent off after Houser. They are now here before him with nothing but killing intent. He couldn’t comprehend the situation he was in anymore.

[Masked Woman] “Fufufufu. I guess even the mighty you wouldn’t expect his most loyal men under him to betray him. Time can change someone’s loyalty, no matter how strong it is.”

[Member A] “No matter what you do, you’ll never have a place in this organization!”

Barking furiously at the woman, he cowers down as his men close in. They take out their weapons and charged in.

[Member A] “AGH!!! You insolent fools…!”

His eyes are beginning to lose color, but he still looks up at the enemy side after being stabbed on his hands and feet. Powerless, he accepted his fate.

[Masked Woman] “Did you really think I want to be part of your mesky organization? A organization filled with nothing but fools wasting their time and power? I have no need for something so petty.”

Dumbfounded, the man couldn’t tell what she wanted anymore. If she doesn’t want to be a power head here, then what? She couldn’t be…

[Masked Woman] “Ah. That expression is showing that you’re getting the idea of it, well half of what you’re thinking is true."

[Member A] “... What is it then…”

[Masked Woman] “Simple. I’m going to destroy the organization and rebuild it once again!”

[Member A] “No way… Even if you succeed, the organization won’t be as powerful as it is now.”

[Masked Woman] “Wrong! It’ll be reborn even stronger. This time the organization will do what it was founded to do at the very beginning.”

[Member A] “You can’t be…”

[Masked Woman] “I’ll do what everyone says but still don’t do. I’ll take out all the demons from this planet!”

The masked woman bursts into a cold and mad laughter. As she dangerously giggles herself, she begins to remove her mask.

[Member A] “You…! No…! Impp…!”

No longer any need to talk to him, she signals the four men and immediately raises their weapons against his head, merciless penetrated through. They removed their weapons, splattering blood all over the blood as the head falls into a pool of its own blood.

The woman, with blood all over her, closes in to the head and kisses the the once known ambassador of treasury of the Red corporation. Licking her own lips, she gets off the corpse and heads to her way out.”

[Assassin A] “Mrs. Fleur. Should we clean up and proceed with our orders?”

[Fleur] “No need. I want them to panic for a bit. Just make sure to erase any evidence of my presence here at the scene. Let them think it was just a assasination case. As for me, I’ll head to my room and clean myself. Starting tomorrow, we act now, gather everyone and get ready.

[Assassins] “Yes Ma'am!”

Even though it’s still early, there’s nothing we can do. Looking at our situation, we’ll be suspected. That kid just had to ruin everything… Well I partly thank him, I now can accomplish my goals faster.

Wickedly laughing, she exits the scene.

Those two girls’ relationship is interesting too, but what interests me more is that kid, that kid is very odd and strange. Once I know what that kid is, that kid will immediately be removed. I have no need to keep threats roaming around.

Make sure to entertain me brats!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Part 3)

[Aisha] “Say Master. Why is your hair and eyes so weird?”

[Adelia] “Aisha! Stop being rude!”

We’ve been walking for a few hours on our way to find this mine village. The travel is going very smoothly so far thanks to Adelia. We did encounter some monsters on our way, but Adelia was able to beat each of them as if they were puppies. It looks like I don’t need to step in.

I wanted to practice my magic on the monsters on the way, but was never given the chance. Sulking a little, I was still satisfied with this trip.

Although, isn’t a Adelia a little too monstrous? We’ve met another group of those blue apes bastards. They were all 4 meters tall and were looking for trouble. Getting ready to settle scores with these beasts, Adelia went ahead and stood in front of them. Startled at first, the apes got hold of themselves as they noticed their advantage in number. With little confidence, the apes engaged with their opponent, shaking the whole area.

An ape went ahead and threw both his arms at Adelia. Anyone that takes a blow head on, would be tear apart with no doubt. With a stance, Adelia breaths out and awaits for the incoming attack. Just a few centimeters away from her, Adelia extends out her arms and steadily stops the attack by holding onto both its arms.

The impact was strong enough to dig her a little into the ground and leaving some cracks around the area. Before being able to react, Adelia firmly grips on its arms and performs a dragon throw on the ape.

Being sent back a few meters away, the ape gets on its feet a little dizzy. He wasn’t really hurt from the attack, but now refuses to enter the scene, its confidence was completely destroyed.

Looking at their divasted partner, the apes leaves a cold sweat. They already went this far, too late to go back now! This time the apes charged in as a group, menacing roaring at Adelia.

Breathing out, Adelia leaps onto one of them and merciless throws a right hook to its abdomen area. Letting out painful yells, the ape gets grabbed by Adelia and gets slammed down to the ground. It was a quick end.

Startled, the rest back down a little, looking at Adelia with fear. Snapping out of it, 4 of them charges in full power. As soon they were about to reach her, Adelia steps to the side and gets behind one of them. Adelia does a low kick to throw off the ape and uses it to boost her jump and gets above the other three. Adelia gets on top of one of them, before it could do anything, Adelia slams down both her arms to its head, knocking it out cold.

As the body fell, the apes furiously throws a blow at her direction. Instead of hitting Adelia, they merciless murdered the unconscious ape. Adelia took advantage of the confusion and quickly took care of the rest.

After this scene, the apes finally learned their place and retreated in fear. At the end they gained nothing in this and end up losing five of their own. Furiously gritting their teeth, all they can do was keep in their anger and flee.

Satisfied with the outcomes, she turns and heads back. She looks at Houser and Aisha from afar a little tense. She has no less experience than any top class hunter, so she wasn't worried about her battle. Houser watching her just makes her nervous, she tries to show him how far her capabilities can go.

[Adelia] “Sir Houser. If it isn’t much trouble, could I cook their meat for us to consume?”

Now that she mentions it, they haven’t eaten anything since they started this trip. Houser was fine, but the girls must be extremely hungry by now. Houser gave his approval and made a quick pit break.

After filling their bellies, they continued on.

It was too tense and a bit scary at the same time… This world is lucky Adelia was born as a high intelligent being. I could already picture them having to deal a wild Adelia.

The trip still went really smoothly since we didn’t encounter much monsters, but those who we did were proved to be troublesome, even for Adelia. If she were to be in a pinch, I stand up and provide aid whenever needed.

At this point, I’m not in the mood to fight anymore. I’ll just let Adelia take care of things, but that doesn’t mean I’ll let her be in danger.

We went like this till we reach the present.

During our travel, we barely said anything to each other, the sister had some conversation from time to time, but were still quiet most of the time. I’m not really trying to get close to them, so I don’t bother with unnecessary stuff. All I need to know is that they’re from a village hunted by hunters and took refuge with me.

Adelia did try to start conversations with me, but quickly had second thoughts and cower down. It seems even her can penetrate to the invisible wall around me. After all, I am a pretty unsociable guy.

We went like this until Aisha breaks the ice around us with a cheeky smile, curiously looking up to me.

[Houser] “I’m not sure. My memories are a bit fuzzy, but it seems I’m cursed. That’s all I can say”

That’s the only excuses I can use, the only thing I can think of to excuse my ignorance of this world.

[Aisha] “I see… Master is cursed. When you get cured I wish to see my master true face.”

Sorry kid, you’re not getting your wish.

[Adelia] “Ok Aisha that’s enough.”

[Aisha] “Why is big sis so stingy? I want to talk to him.”

[Adelia] “You…! My apologies Sir…”

[Houser] “I don’t mind. Let’s just go.”

This much isn’t enough to bother me anyways.

We continued for a minutes until we’ve reached an enormous flower field. As the wind blows petals all over, with every color of the rainbow, it made the scene such a beautiful and relaxing scene.

With shining eyes, Aisha goes ahead and spins around with a cheerful expression, making this scene quite even more eye catching, enough to make an impression on Houser.

Although still wearing those rags, she’s any adult’s ideal image of a daughter. Her jet black and silky fair skin made her stand out. Even after going such a traumatizing event, her eyes were still filled with life, Houser had to give her props for such strong mentality at her age.

Houser takes a glance at the demon woman next to her as the air breezes her majestic black hair. Same as Aisha, her rugs seem to have no effect on her appearance at all to the point it kind of suits her. Through her exposed areas, you could notice her injuries are quickly healing, not as fast as Houser but still an abnormal pace compared to a normal person. With her exposed skin getting cleaner and cleaner, it’s starting to make Houser take involuntary glances at her, he needs to get her new clothe quick.

[Houser] “Enough playing around. Let’s go.”

[Aisha] “Aww… Ok…”

Why are you pouting?

An hour later, the group began to see some buildings up head.

[Houser] “Finally.”

[Aisha] “Wow! So many buildings.”

As they were reaching their destination, Houser couldn’t hold it in anymore. He had to get this out of the way.

[Houser] “Say… Adelia.”

[Adelia] “Yes?”

[Houser] “Can you use weapons?”

I know she doesn’t need them, her fists are her greatest weapons, but this might actually lead to trouble in the future. Adelia has great potential to keep up with me, but she must receive some guidance.

[Adelia] “No, Sir Houser. I did had a sword and spear on some special occasions, but I can’t say I have practical knowledge in wielding them.”

[Houser] “I see. Another question. Were you able to reach the peak of all the monsters of that forest? By that I mean having to trouble handling those guys.”

[Adelia] “I am, except the Lizardmen.”

[Houser] “If I’m not wrong, you mention something about ranks. You said that sea horse as only a B rank.”

[Adelia] “Yes Sir. All monsters’ danger level are consisted on ranks. Strength doesn’t solely fall in this category, but it does determine how much of a threat they are to everyone. We people also fall under ranks, but in a different way; we use ranks to determine the level of our professions such as Swordsman, Fighter, Smith, Alchemy, etc. That’s as much knowledgement I got from my village.”

Nice reliable information. It gives off a RPG feeling, but I didn’t really pay mind to it.

[Houser] “Got it. What rank are those Lizardmen?”

[Adelia] “S rank. Very formidable foes.”

[Houser] “Were they the only S ranks monsters on the forest?”

[Adelia] “No there were a few more S rank monsters.”

[Houser] "So you’re saying you can handle monsters with the same rank as those Lizardmen but still can beat them?”

As I thought, she can’t fight high intelligent beings. Her experience alone as hunter makes her very formidable against monster. If she were to fight something that thinks twice, a human with a profession as an example, her strength alone won’t cover her lack of combat knowledge. To me, her strength scares me a bit, but I don’t see her as a threat to me.

[Houser] “As soon as we establish at one point, we’ll begin some combat training. You’re useless to me if you stay like that, our enemies won’t only be monsters.”

Getting what Houser was getting at, she firmly nodded and hang her head a little bit. She was aware that hunting was all she can do.

They continue along their way to the entrance. Aisha rushes in, humming and giggling with herself, but was actually in deep thought.

As they close in, there were two guards patrolling around the entrance. They noticed three presences closing in. They raised their swords on full guard and suspiciously glared at the group, especially Adelia. It seems something was off, they were glaring a bit too much at Adelia.

Oh right. These guys hate demons.

[Guard A] “You three! Identify yourselves and state your business! Those who wish to enter will go through a body check.”

[Guard B] “You must be the owner. Why isn’t your slave chained? And what’s with the little girl’s appearance. We will not allow such suspicious people enter Laxord Village.”

Laxord huh… I didn’t expect this level of security. We are close to the border, so it does make some sense.

Adelia closes in first for her check up, but was attacked by one of the guards.

[Guard B] “You wrench! Don’t you make eye contact with me! Take off all your clothe.”

Fortunately, she avoided the sword and apologized while looking down. She was going to undo her clothing, but was stopped by Houser.

[Houser] “Say…”

[Guard B] “!!?"

[Guard A] “You…!”

I reached out to him and firmly gripped his skull and threw him back.

[Houser] “That was just a warning. I don’t care about your little conflict whatsoever, so how dare you trying to harm her? Do you know all the shit I went through for her?”

Don’t think I’ll bow down to this world! Human or not, those who gets in my way will only suffer. Like hell I’ll let some pitiful guards get their way with me.

About the Romance tag, it won’t really apply to Houser for now, but will be for those who interact with Houser.

For mature tag, I’m not sure if I should put it or not. I’ll do it when one of the staff notices I went out of line and give me a warning :/

This chapter was a bit rushed at the end, since I wanted this done today, so I hope I didn’t mess much. I’ll edit all my chapters on friday and do the best I can to improve them. Looking for an editor :(

My speech format its a bit off here. I'll fix tomorrow after work. I'm still keeping the same format.
