It had been three days since they had a run-in with the demon spawns, since then, they were ordered told by the teachers to stay indoors as the teachers search for whatever demon was releasing spawns in the forest with some higher-grade students.

Zoe was among said students and Hunter was yet to see her since. He was tired of staying in the suite doing nothing but he couldn't do anything except oblige to the teacher's instructions.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAMrF1e4c7
While every other student finds something to keep them occupied, the trio decided to play some chess as they wait for the teachers to handle the situation.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89l5JYoc0A
"And that's checkmate!" Sydney smirked.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLL0IMBVB02
"You're cheating!" Martin claimed.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoYICcM9OU
"She won again?" Hunter asked as he approached the duo with a bowl of cookies.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrulY4BrvSb
"She's cheating, I'm sure of it," Martin said taking a cookie from the bowl.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMt4yGxjPuc
"Or maybe you both suck in this game," Sydney laughed, "Can you pass me a bottle of water?" She requested
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcrZrivb9F
Hunter picks a bottle of water and passes it to Sydney, "I was meaning to ask you," Martin stated, "why is there so much bottled water in your room?"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLfVL2gPHFl
"I just prefer drinking water from a bottle," Hunter replied, "it's an old habit" he shrugged.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepEwTtwvnD
"Hunter, Hunter, can you hear me?" He suddenly heard a voice in his head
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01nra4huUb
'Huh?'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGTTsD0GGoZ
"Keep calm, I'm the demon in your head,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BPP8YooRw
'Wait, you can talk to me without a mirror?"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzl6GTZyPz
"Of course, I can! I've mentioned this before! I'm inside your head for the love of all things beautiful,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PnFJ2lOIz
'I'm just messing with you, what is it?'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyRJrLFKWB
"Something's coming this way."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5scJGHGEW
"Huh?" Hunter said out loud,
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgH6rOczPuS
"What is it, Hunter?" Sydney asked
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8QPF5Bfac
"It's getting closer ... A pure demon." The demon added,
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5317tKFM22
"A pure demon!" He exclaimed. Before they could react, a wave force hit the building, forcing it to destroy and crumble to the ground. Hunter quickly twists and catches the falling Sydney in his arms before carefully landing on his feet.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8JDxV096I
"Thanks," She said to him as she got down from his arms. "Where's Martin?" He said looking around,
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQRjF8XdBqU
"I'm fine," Martin said, emerging from the rubble.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYaLVmeht1
Their surrounding is suddenly covered with dark mist, making it impossible for them to see from their knee down.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc4hmI7fzN
"Oh boy," Martin said, his eyes wide open as he sees the mist.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd0V3cQCVS
"What?" Sydney queried
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfNgElYRKc
"We're in its domain,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZPctVuksXw
"Students!" A teacher called, he was the only teacher that stayed behind at the suite while the others went in search of the demon, the same demon that was now coming for them.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNW3jy95Iq
The teacher swings his hands trying to form a portal but nothing happens, "Magic negation ..." He whispered to himself, "All of you! Run the other way, I'll hold it off!"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9i2UJACde
Hunter and the others began racing the other way but no matter how far they ran, the dark mist seem to stretch farther, "What now?" A student wondered.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DzyHf4JJB
"We can't stay here, we'll die," another exclaimed.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiAsI86RZo
"I don't want to die," a third cried, "I'm too young to die"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF327T2I1hb
Hunter turned to Sydney, "can you shift?" He asked
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr69yRZKpoU
"No," she shakes her head, "Whatever this is," she made a sweeping motion with her arm that encompassed their surrounding of dark mist, "It's stopping me from doing anything,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XNqYy6kKj
"Do you feel that?" The demon inside Hunter asked,
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4VZHKmK7D
"It's coming!" Hunter warned the others and as if on cue, the demon pops out from below the ground in front of them before floating in the air, cackling as it stood above the terrified students.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx5ISX86OZ3
The demon was large with black lines running across its entire body. It had a helmet-like head that didn't cover its teeth, horns for where the eyes are supposed to be, and two black lines that zigzag down its face. Its arms were entirely black while its fingers were white.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEYG2uUglj
Martin jumps and launches himself at the demon but it effortlessly pushes him aside.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MFu0Vdxav
"Martin!" Sydney called, running to the now fallen Martin.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNhMGCGjUw
The demon raised its black arm in the air and small glass shards appears from the mist pointing at every student.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUYmoWDLwM
"Psst," Hunter's demon called, its face appearing in the glass and pointing towards him. "You're back in a mirror?" Hunter mused
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrZ70ARgDI
"Not a good time for a joke," his demon shakes his head disappointedly
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvzChMIwoQ
"I'm about to die, what better time to make a joke than now?"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7EioNBy1ii
"That's j --" the demon sighs, "alright, pay attention, I'm going to teach you a new skill," He stated, "See the mist around you, how do you think they were formed?"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xZgf5yQkC
"Huh," Hunter said thoughtfully, "magic?" He guessed
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzG4IXxuRr
"Exactly! So why is magic stopping you from using magic?"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0JzEEeySkh
"The demon is much stronger than I am?" He shrugged
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZKlYNVbjE
"You're looking at this wrongly," his demon sighed, "here's your first lesson: in every magic spell or whatever, there is always an energy to be harnessed from it,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEItFWWL7Jv
"Oh,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfed0O8YOS3
"Now, I need you to forget everything you know about your regular magic,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7B5SJvLeU
"Okay ..."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpOuyb8d6rc
"Focus on the mist and use its energy to fuel your attack."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdiJqgDcu7
"Alright," Hunter says as he let out a deep breath and focuses on the mist.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtLUN3krjA
Hunter focused and focused until he began to feel the energy, it wasn't much but yet, it was stronger than anything he had ever felt before. His hands glow blue as energy forms around his fist and his eyes turn a deeper shade of green.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMr5Ako3LbN
The pure demon seems to notice the sudden burst in energy as it quickly turned its attention to Hunter, in shock at first but it quickly regains its composure and lowers down to the ground.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTH9lKZE1Mq
Hunter rushes toward the pure demon and throws a right jab at it followed by a quick left. The pure demon avoids this by moving in opposite directions.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuijQg40JU0
The pure demon countered with some strikes of its own, throwing a right cross which Hunter avoids by spinning and hitting it with his elbow.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDGLlS86J8
The pure demon staggers backward and seeing an opening, Hunter quickly moves and attempts a roundhouse kick but the pure demon catches his leg and flings him away. As he flies backward, he sees the pure demon disappear and reappear in front of him, hitting him with an uppercut, and sending him crashing into the ground, causing it to crack.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GNzLEsdHo
'He's so much faster than I am," Hunter thought.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJWTQlq4AH
Hunter got up from the ground causing the pure demon to grit its teeth. It formed some dark energy blast and launches it continuously at its opponent, when the dust settles, Hunter emerged shirtless.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1AZI7iQbf
The pure demon races towards him with clenched fists while Hunter thought of a solution.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrSfKcTGHp
'Do you have any more tricks I could try?'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgonPy0A2ZW
"Well, this pure demon is much stronger than you are,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF5KI848HAZ
'Really? I didn't know that!'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFya3iYmPA
"You can't see me but I just rolled my eyes," his demon says, "What I mean is he is a very strong demon and the energy from the mist is much lower than the one he has,"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hLe24J7WO
'What if I draw energy from him?'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMX7NRwb8BE
"Too dangerous," his demon replied, "if anything goes wrong you'd end up becoming his puppet."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0uVgFNtr9
'So we don't try that, anything else?'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74TrVqcV3I
"Give me control of your body."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ckLMWyogM
'No, I prefer being in control of my life,'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs9wlhCVUZ
"That precious life of yours is in danger, give me temporary control and I'll deal with the demon."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKItDOM7ee
'What's the catch?'
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1IKfdjUqc
"None!" His demon exclaimed, "I happen to live inside of your body and I'm pretty sure it's in my best interest you remain alive. Also, it's really difficult finding someone to bond with, so ... Give. Me. Control." His demon stated
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdezOQgsz8
"Fine."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxfq3zo1Qf
Hunter's pupil disappears momentarily and they return as his demon was now in control. He looked the same if not for the loose hair stretching down to the shoulders and with unique markings on his forehead, nose, cheeks, and torso.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndZBHWHebT
He also had two lines on both his wrists and upper arms, circles on both his shoulders with a dot in each, two-segmented curve lines on his chest, and two lines on his stomach.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV7dguzpN59
"Those markings ..." the pure demon said shocked,
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWh0Llwhay
Demon Hunter formed a button-up shirt out of nothing and started to put it on.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPzlaTEedb
The pure demon began launching a series of attacks at Demon Hunter, who easily avoids the attacks as he puts on the buttons of the shirt and roll up his sleeves.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwxm4VJt7s
Once Demon Hunter was finished with the sleeves, he looked up at the pure demon, "let us begin then," he smirked, as the words leaves his tongue, the dark mist disperses causing the now confused pure demon to freeze in its tracks.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmALQ2s5u6G
Before the pure demon could figure out what was happening, Demon Hunter had already closed the short distance between them both before punching the pure demon in its left shoulder, it felt nothing but dark energy through its body before its black hand blows out of the body.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbffm5ULYI
"This was boring," Demon Hunter stated before grabbing the pure demon's right wrist, the pure demon screams and screams as its skin ages and ages before falling to the ground.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1rvkIIpdC
"Hunter?" a voice called from behind, Demon Hunter's pupil move to the side to see Lauren with Zoe by her side.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrKVvtR89C
"Looks like the fun's over," he muttered to himself before giving back control to Hunter.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL23vzHxIvw
***
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZbLt590FN
Hunter wipes his eyes as he opens them to find Lauren looking at him, next to her was another teacher, Mr. Daniel, the one who thought him how to cast a domain.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr7TjLLJ1f
"Miss Lauren," Hunter says, his voice low, "what happened to the demon?" He groggily asked
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaNZENzoYyp
"You defeated it," she replied calmly
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvwsFgjtT9
"I did? Cool cool cool cool."
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEg3kM5HwIR
He looked around the room, he was surrounded by an old concrete wall with dots of crystal like stones poking out of the cracks. On one side of the room was a sink with a mirror above it and next to his bed was a toilet.
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAb7evowPv
"Why am I behind bars though?" He asked
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1VB5WQkQD
"Because you're under arrest," Mr. Daniel stated
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UpPh4qnUF
Hunter's mouth dropped to the floor, his eyes opening wide, "For what? Why?"
270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvAqTxgw2B
"You are a user of the forbidden art, chaos magic."
