I Was Born With A Demon Lord Inside Of Me, Who Wants To Kill

Chapter 42: Solution

Whitebolt picked up the white paper. There was a black cross on it.

-Is this it? – Thought Whitebolt – This is a Pure Seal?

He picked it up and went up the stairs. Maids were nervously waiting for him.

-Whitebolt-sama, are you okay?

-You look pale, want me to get you some water?

-I'm fine. – Answered Whitebolt – I just haven't eaten anything.

-We will quickly make the tastiest lunch for you!

-That will be great. - Whitebolt smiled.

The maids left. Whitebolt started observing the seal.

-There's nothing written on it. There's no magic circle, is this even real? I should take it to Harumi before using it on Rekka.

Even thought he was hungry, he still walked to the adventurer's guild. He went to the receptionist table.

-Whitebolt-san! Are you okay? – Harumi stood on her toes and laid her hand on his face – You seem pale! Come with me.

Harumi took him to the staff room and they sat down. She gave Whitebolt something to drink.

-What happened?

Whitebolt put down the drink. He took out the seal out of his pocket and dropped it on the table.

-This happened. Someone gave me a Pure Seal.

Harumi took the seal.

-This... Isn't a Pure Seal. – She said. She started to get Worried.

-What is it then?

-This... This... How did you get it? – Harumi started shaking.

-I said someone gave it to me. – Whitebolt got annoyed and confused.

-No way... This is the... Holy Angel Seal... - She quickly threw it on the table.

-The Holy Angel Seal?

-Y-yes... This is the... - She nervously gulped – T-the strongest holy seal yet to be found...

Whitebolt leaned forward.

-If you sell this... You will become one of the richest person in the whole continent. The rarity, there is only one of it. I was found on stage 30 of the... The power it h-holds...

-How strong is it!?

-It has... LVL 50 holy magic in it.

-LVL 50!? – Whitebolt was dumbfounded – I'm stuck on LVL 12 electric magic for nearly a year! – He thought.

Harumi stood up and put her hands on the table.

-Who gave this to you! WHO! – She was starting to get scared.

-Calm down! – Whitebolt stood up too and put his hands on Harumis shoulders. – Calm down. I will explain what happened.

-O-okay... - She started to get the sense of things and sat down.

Whitebolt told about his encounter with Duster and Maya.

-You're lying.

-I'm telling the truth. – Said Whitebolt – Can I use this seal on Rekka?

-I don't know – Answered Harumi in a frail tone. She couldn't process what was happening.

She closed her eyes. When she opened them, she saw unknown man, sitting next to Whitebolt with a thinking pose. Harumi screamed out of fear. Whitebolt looked around and saw Duster right in front of him.

-Hello friend! – Duster waved his hand and smiled.

-YOU! What are you doing here? – Whitebolt jumped away.

Harumi started to get nauseous from his aura.

-Of sorry, my bad! – Said Duster and put his hand behind his neck, smiling.

-The presence is gone. – Thought Whitebolt.

Suddenly, someone barged into the staff room. It was an adventurer.

-I felt a strong aura! Who is here! – The adventurer looked around and only saw Whitebolt and Harumi – Oh, it might've been you Whitebolt, sorry to barge in.

The staff room wasn't big. There was a food table, board games, water dispenser and a shelf with books.

The adventurer left and closed the door.

Whitebolt got confused and looked at the couch. Duster was gone.

-Anyway, I came here for a reason. – He was leaning on Whitebolts shoulder.

Harumi was terrified and started to tear up. She was 19, a year younger than Whitebolt.

-Calm down miss! I didn't mean to scare you. Don't worry I'll stop. – He was moving in a goofy way.

-What do you need! – Shouted Whitebolt.

Duster looked at him with dead eyes and a menacing smile.

-Don't talk down on me... Anyways! – He regained his energy – If you wonder if you can use the seal on Rekka, you can! It's totally harmless to humans.

-How do you know exactly? – Said Whitebolt. His voice started to shake after that death look.

Duster stared at him again.

-I know what I'm saying. Now, I must take my goodbye! See you later my friend! – He waved his hand and disappeared in thin air.

Whitebolt rushed over to Harumi. She was petrified.

-Harumi! Are you okay? Answer me!

-I, I. – She couldn't speak out of fear – I think I'm okay.

-Thank god! I thought you would get sick from his monstrous presence.

Harumi smiled. She was happy about the fact that Whitebolt was worried about her.

-Thanks for looking after me, Ken-chan. – She giggled.

-I said to you to not call me by that name. – He wasn't angry. He made a kind smile.

They sat down and talked for a while.

-We haven't had a conversation like this in a such a long time. – Harumis face got red.

-Yeah, come visit my mansion once in a while.

-I will try! This job is taking too much of my time! – She pouted.

-Why not quit? I can support you in every way.

Harumi stood up and put his finger on Whitebolts nose.

-Because I want to be someone you can depend on. – She cutely giggled.

Whitebolt didn't even flinch.

-You are always like this, Haru. I guess I will leave. I haven't eaten anything today.

Whitebolt said goodbye and left. He started heading towards the mansion with the seal in his pocket.

-Haru, I wish I could bring the time back, where we played together as kids. – He looked up in the sky. A cold breeze hit him. He smiled and continued his way.
