Chapter 30 - Death of a Monster.

Eleasia: Why did you partner with me.....it wasn't like it was necessary more like coincidence?

This time Shiro didn't reply immediately instead he opted to look at Eleasia, seeing her being stared at Eleasia couldn't help but feel bashful? Shy? Happy!? what the Hell was happening to her!

Shiro: You looked Lonely and....weak.

Eleasia raised an Eyebrow, she admits at being lonely after spending time with Shiro but she wasn't weak.

Shiro: Weak as in emotionally, it was like if you got pushed a little more without help or someone to confide in you would break in many pieces and would have a hard time being genuinely happy, I....I couldn't stand to watch it, you can say my ideals made me want to help you so I used the excuse of partnership to get along with you and.....haha I guess I left the rest to curry.

Eleasia was once again staring blankly at Shiro, she didn't say anything but she felt a strange warmth originate in her "dead" heart as it spread throughout her body, finally she smiled at Shiro, a beautiful smile that was genuine and sincere.

Shiro got lost once more in that smile but shook himself as he felt his cheeks heat up but he was happy to know that smile was enough of a indication that Eleasia was better.

Shiro quickly pushed all of the boxes towards Eleasia.

Shiro: You know I'm not that hungry, you can eat all of this! (Trying to hide Blush)

Eleasia's eyes lit up in joy.

Eleasia: Thanks Shiro! (For being here)

Shiro watched satisfied as Eleasia was eating his food unknown to him Eva was laughing in his Reality Marble.

-Reality Marble-

Eva was sitting inside a Veranda she made laughing as she watched Shiro through her Magic.

Fou: Fou! (Nods)

Fou who was beside Eva nodded.

Eva: Glad you agree Fou.

-Afterword, Real world-

Shiro was riding his bike with Eleasia after they left the Bar, Shiro had decided to give her a lift towards a Branch office of the church before she leaves to the Burial Agency.

Shiro got his bike as a gift from Raiga, Taiga's grandfather after Shiro fixed his other motorcycles, Shiro had tweaked with his motorcycle and had increased the performance to another level and gave the bike a black and red color scheme, perfect for getting to places quickly and maneuvering even in small spaces.

After arriving at their destination, Eleasia got of from Shiro's back (reluctantly).

Eleasia: Guess this is goodbye for now.

Shiro: Eleasia take a vacation if you want, I don't suppose killing 7 Magi Dead Apostles in four months has been done by anyone else, you deserve a rest and if possible come to Fuyuki....I'll make you as much curry you want.

Eleasia: Wait for me I might come sooner than expected (Smile)

Shiro: (Who knew even Killers could be so simple minded) We'll love to have you Eleasia, well good bye gotta make sure there are no more traces of Dead Apostles before leaving.

Eleasia saw as Shiro reved his bike before leaving and she also made her way inside to report.

-Afterword-

Eleasia had finished her report and after resting for some time in the Branch (Even if she was immortal, Her stamina wasn't unlimited) She made her way towards the air port to go back towards the agency, strangely she was walking leisurely instead of taking a cab, but who knew she'll meet someone she knows.

?????: Oh Ciel is that you!

Turning around she met with another Fellow Titled Executor, one of the few she has somewhat of a good relationship with...who was also a Dead Apostle Ancestor.

Ciel: Merem?

Merem: Hey.

Merem and Ciel were both making their way to the while occasionally chatting.

Merem: Hey Ciel I heard from rumors that you were hunting Dead Apostles with the Demon Killer is that true? how many did you kill?

Ciel: Yes I had partnered up with the Demon Killer and for your information we hunted and successfully killed 7 Dead Apostles.

Merem shut up and stared at Ciel in shock.

Merem: 7? 7 Dead Apostles!? how long has it been 4 months!

Ciel: almost four actually and all of them were Magi with established Territorial Fields.

Merem: Thats insane!

Ciel: I didn't do much of the killing my partner did his abillities were natural counters to our Targets.

All this time Ciel/Eleasia was talking like she was discussing the weather, Merem looked at her incredulously. What kind of Monster did the Magus killer unleash!

Ciel: I "offered" him but he said, he wanted to keep his sanity intact and the Mage Association would just make him wanna kill most of the Magi he doesn't like.

Merem couldn't help but chuckle, The Church had members that scorned Magecraft but most of all everyone was practically mentally Unstable, the higher the rank the more Unstable they were, Heck the current Nabareck, Leader of the Burial Agency was a Homicidal Maniac that loves bullying her subordinates.

The Mage Association was also not anything pretty, Most Magi were too secretive, Greedy, Cruel or just plain deranged always obsessed with their research and reaching the Root, that it isn't suprising if they even leave their humanity behind and if you are extraordinary, You get a Sealing Designation and get hunted down at the ends of the Earth.

Merem: Too bad...but I can't fault him for wanting to be a Freelancer, most sane Magi are Freelancers.

Ciel nodded with a small smile, making Merem question if this was actually Agent Bow.

Ciel: But what are you doing here?

Merem: Oh! I got a good deal on some ancient Chinese Relics for my Collection so I came to retrieve them.

Merem Solomon had a hobby of collecting rare items and Treasures for his Collection. The Reason he joined the Church was to gain access to their vault of Holy Relics and was suprisingly tolerated by other Ancestors despite being a Traitor.

Ciel: Shiro's collection is better.

Merem: You have to Introduce me to Him!

Merem practically begged but Ciel didn't answer him.

Merem: I'll get you an all you can eat Coupon to eat Curry.

Merem used his trump card but what Ciel said made him question if she was real or not!

Ciel: You can keep your coupon (I've already tasted the Apex, Normal Curry can only sustain me not satisfy me anymore)

Merem looked at Ciel contemplating whether she was real or not before her phone rang.

Ciel took her phone out, she carried one because of Shiro and seeing that it was Shiro calling she unknowingly smiled and brought the phone to her ear.

Ciel: Hello? Oh! it's you Jasper.

Merem quietly listened.

Ciel suddenly looked tense.

Ciel: When!? No never mind where are you right now!

Merem's expression became serious, something was wrong.

Ciel: I'm on my way! (Turns off call) Merem! we need to get to Shiro now! You're coming with me!

Ciel started running, Merem behind her.

Merem: What happened?

Ciel: The #10 Dead Apostle Ancestor Nrvnqsr Chaos came after my partner and confronted him!

Merem: Thats not good, do you want me to release my Daemon of the Left leg, My King of Sky can get us there in a few moments.

Ciel shook her head.

Ciel: I'm more worried about my partner's condition right about now since his life isn't in immediate since.....

Merem heard the thing that shocked him perhaps the most today.

Ciel: Shiro is injured and Nrvnqsr Chaos is dead.
