My Demon Hunting System

Chapter 13: You two have to live together

"Well, that's why we believed that it wouldn't be a problem to send you there to fight."

Galiriothoxmus accepted that he thought that Ary also had some special power since his surname matched that of the 1st Warrior.

"But it's still dangerous, you knucklehead!"

Erica, who was already furious at Galiriothoxmus, objected while showing her frantic crimson eyes to Galiriothoxmus.

"Ah, yeah. My apologies"

Lowering his head, Galiriothoxmus apologized due to the fear of getting hit again.

What he did was definitely wrong. Just because Ary's surname matched that of the 1st Warrior didn't mean that he had truly possessed something incredible. Galirothoxmus's overconfidence might end up killing Ary if both Jack and Jinne weren't there to support him.

"But I think it wasn't his mistake."

Suddenly, Lady Selene called out, shifting her gaze at Ary and Erica, adding,

"It was our Father who confidently told him that Ary Inochi can able to do this job. He just obeys his words."

"Your Father?"

Erica lifted her eyebrows.

"Yes, our father. Father Albert, the Father of Every Heavenly Deities."

Galiriothoxmus called out.

"...?!"

Ary was taken aback in surprise.

'Their father...knew me already?'

He wondered, then, he sighed, saying,

"Well, what's done is done, right? No need to get angry or apologize over it."

Ary tried to calm the situation. Certainly, he was thinking about this matter, and their arguments made the situation worse and also disturbed Ary's thoughts.

"Hmph. I guess you're right."

Erica said this while pouting a little and folding her arms while swerving her sight away from Galiriothoxmus.

After seeing Erica's unusual reaction, Ary pondered,

'That's weird. She never acts like this in school. She always stays cold and rude toward others, but why is she acting like a Tsundere now?'

Just imagine what it would feel like when you knew a person for more than 3 years and always saw that person treating others like an insect, but in a split of seconds, their behaviour changed in front of you. How odd it feels, isn't it?

The same situation was with Ary.

Then, with a sigh, he mumbled,

"Whatever. I'd better focus on solving this puzzle first."

The puzzle that he meant was about trying to know more about this first warrior and knowing about his origin. The actual thing that caught Ary's attention was the surname of the 1st Warrior. After knowing his surname and realising that he had roamed all of the Heavenly Realm some 19,953 years ago, the only thought that came to his mind was,

'Was that person my ancestor?'

But then he shook his head and mumbled,

"No way. I'm not the only person with the surname Inochi. There may be more than 100 of them." Then, his serious face shaped into a miserable expression, he felt,

'And no one would be as lifeless as me anyway.'

Having no one to call family was a pain for him, but somehow his pain was getting a little less as he glanced at Galiriothoxmus and others and wondered,

'I wonder whether I can call them my family or not...'

While Ary was lost in thought, Galiriothoxmus' voice interrupted him, bringing him back to reality and calling him,

"Hey, Ary. Mind coming here for a second?"

"Uh?"

Ary responded as he came to his senses and glared at Galiriothoxmus, then nodded and stepped toward them.

"What is it?"

He asked as he reached out and stood beside Erica.

"What about we try to figure out the name of the first warrior?"

Galiriothoxmus demanded.

"Hah...?"

Ary responded while making a weary expression after hearing the childish request of Galiriothoxmus. Ary's expression clearly showed, "What a child he is."

"Hey! Don't look at me like this. I'm really curious since your surname was also Inochi!"

Galiriothoxmus hissed after seeing Ary's expression since he understood what Ary was trying to show.

"Hah..."

Ary sighed while placing his right palm over his face. With a weary expression, he glanced at Galiriothoxmus and asked,

"Why are you acting like a lad? Instead of focusing on finding the name of the first Warrior, why don't you focus on training us so that we'll be strong enough to defeat the next Realm Hunter, aka Demon Lord?"

His question was logical and he wanted to find it by himself.

"But Ary, I'm also curious to know about his name."

Unexpectedly, Lady Selene stepped forward, and while holding Ary's right hand, she requested,

"What about we try to discover his name as well as start your training as well?"

"Ah, well..."

Ary was reluctant. He tried to deny it, but the shining eyes of Lady Selene, which were shining because of curiosity, made him addicted to it. Also,

*Boing*

Her boobs were so close to his hand, and while diverting his eyes, Ary pondered,

'Why am I acting like Michael now?'

But because of his boy instinct, his eyes shifted back to her boobs. He assumed,

'Damn. Why does seeing them feel so incredible?'

After seeing Ary's delighted expression, even the featureless face of Galiriothoxmus was saying, "What a playboy."

"Okay, so I won't mind."

Ary replied with a joyful smile.

"Seriously? That's great."

Lady Selene thanked Ary, then released his right hand. However,

"Hmm?!"

Unexpectedly, Ary responded in a slightly frightened voice as he sensed a chill in his back and what felt like freezing air beside him on the left.

"I think Lady Selene is right."

A soft yet terrifying voice was heard from Ary's left, and he looked at his left in a petrified way, and out of fear, his eyes dilated as he saw a sweet yet horrible smile on Erica's face. She smiled while glaring at Ary, and while holding Ary's left hand, she asked,

"Don't you think, A!-Ry!"

"Y-y-y-yeah, you're right. Haha hahaha."

Ary replied in a petrified voice with a fake laugh. He pondered,

'What the hell is wrong with her? She went from being a Tsundere to a freaking Yandere in an instant! Is she getting jealous?'

"Well, if you're agreeing with what Lady Selene said, then you better not forget to find his name, okay?" Galiriothoxmus said,

"Yeah, I know. You don't have to tell me."

Ary jeered causally. His voice clearly showed that he hadn't listened to Galiriothoxmus's statement clearly.

After seeing Ary's attitude, Galiriothoxmus didn't say anything, but deep within,

'That brat!! Talking with a honey-like voice with Lady Selene and treating me like a piece of trash. Did he forget that I'm also a deity like Lady Selene?'

Well, Galiriothoxmus didn't understand that it was just because of the differences between Lady Selene and himself. Truthfully, Ary admired Lady Selene for her beauty, but for Galiriothoxmus, well, he was just so-so.

Now Ary, rubbing the back of his head, asserted while looking at Galiriothoxmus.

"Right now, I'm really tired. That's why I thought of going home and taking some rest first."

Ary stated that he was really tired from the fight. Good sleep may refresh his mood and remove fatigue from his body.

"Oh, no need for that."

Galiriothoxmus avowed.

"Hum?"

"Ha?"

Both Erica and Ary were left confused over Galiriothoxmus's statement.

"What do you mean, no need? I have to rest. Got it?"

In a slightly angry voice, Ary complained.

"Ah, yeah. Of course, I won't stop you from resting. However, you two are not allowed to go home."

Galiriothoxmus stated.

"What?! Why?"

Erica, who was getting a bad feeling after hearing those statements, protested.

"Well, it's because..."

Galiriothoxmus said with a deep voice and completed,

"You two are going to live here in the Heavenly Realm since you two are the Warrior race now."

"Haaa?! You didn't tell me that before!"

Ary gripped in anger.

"Yeah, he is right. Why do we have to live here when he has our home back on earth?"

Erica hissed in fury after hearing this statement.

But Galiriothoxmus was assured of his words.

He raised his head and confirmed, saying,

"But it's a rule. Since Erica becomes a Warrior after drinking Ary's saliva, then they both become contracted with each other as partners, so you two have to live together in the same room in the Heavenly Realm."

"Wha?!"

"Uh?!"

Both were left flabbergasted after hearing this statement. A boy and a girl, both teens, will be in the same room.

"Yes,"

Galiriothoxmus commented,

"It won't be a problem since you two know each other, right?"

He did that on purpose. But after hearing this awestruck statement, both of them looked at each other with tense expressions on their faces, pondering,

'Living together with Ary/Erica?!'
