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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkGOj9ok94d
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaExG7Mzjz
"And that's checkmate!" Sydney smirked.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRKqE3domp
"You're cheating!" Martin claimed.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyi97LSUVH
"She won again?" Hunter asked as he approached the duo with a bowl of cookies.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQUifSzFVp
"She's cheating, I'm sure of it," Martin said taking a cookie from the bowl.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfsMjmljiE
"Or maybe you both suck in this game," Sydney laughed, "Can you pass me a bottle of water?" She requested
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpeXgI6XRt
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?"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpjZaWkzS5
"I just prefer drinking water from a bottle," Hunter replied, "it's an old habit" he shrugged.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mt79T14pr
"Hunter, Hunter, can you hear me?" He suddenly heard a voice in his head
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gDOUlRCk2
'Huh?'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQux6cdvv9
"Keep calm, I'm the demon in your head,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNESOwiSMdh
'Wait, you can talk to me without a mirror?"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMi1bJbQQO
"Of course, I can! I've mentioned this before! I'm inside your head for the love of all things beautiful,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyDbSMRTz8
'I'm just messing with you, what is it?'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJllY7hqz7y
"Something's coming this way."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1ohTCkyst
"Huh?" Hunter said out loud,
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBJ2Zvk726
"What is it, Hunter?" Sydney asked
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKhNLM26N9
"It's getting closer ... A pure demon." The demon added,
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgS7ZyLGND
"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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡij7i5MbXmB
"Thanks," She said to him as she got down from his arms. "Where's Martin?" He said looking around,
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvUP3xddHJ
"I'm fine," Martin said, emerging from the rubble.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikB2rHkYdv
Their surrounding is suddenly covered with dark mist, making it impossible for them to see from their knee down.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6yr1R5sD6n
"Oh boy," Martin said, his eyes wide open as he sees the mist.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEl0y4XmC7
"What?" Sydney queried
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6RbgRIS3P
"We're in its domain,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3HnkybqGKu
"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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2Pu3tV1RJ
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!"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVuTSXoVrz1
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7d65xMulB
"We can't stay here, we'll die," another exclaimed.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8h76Gqbin
"I don't want to die," a third cried, "I'm too young to die"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsnOIl4olp
Hunter turned to Sydney, "can you shift?" He asked
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYyvogrnue
"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,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLMxl6dwPv
"Do you feel that?" The demon inside Hunter asked,
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RZXrbHbm1
"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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSo0YE60toB
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8rI5hUsSk
Martin jumps and launches himself at the demon but it effortlessly pushes him aside.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gjzsYDivB
"Martin!" Sydney called, running to the now fallen Martin.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H82IpIANW
The demon raised its black arm in the air and small glass shards appears from the mist pointing at every student.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHOa3kqmX6
"Psst," Hunter's demon called, its face appearing in the glass and pointing towards him. "You're back in a mirror?" Hunter mused
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LjzDy8TgV
"Not a good time for a joke," his demon shakes his head disappointedly
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZl9KUzuxLw
"I'm about to die, what better time to make a joke than now?"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGcoQEdiFI
"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?"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOEVTCUTdH
"Huh," Hunter said thoughtfully, "magic?" He guessed
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2yoki794Y
"Exactly! So why is magic stopping you from using magic?"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPDXKorYdhp
"The demon is much stronger than I am?" He shrugged
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsnecy4zUB
"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,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLlnEKBzo4
"Oh,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gEAkTNohJ
"Now, I need you to forget everything you know about your regular magic,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEPlxTPDlj
"Okay ..."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkc7z6UC4U8
"Focus on the mist and use its energy to fuel your attack."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjFFjOSh79
"Alright," Hunter says as he let out a deep breath and focuses on the mist.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwQIlJ1qJm
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgtu4uGx6r
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6ROrzhFHE
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYlPxTUuD6
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjzcQORT6a
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FwDDXVT2s
'He's so much faster than I am," Hunter thought.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9re5f6igle
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB83BspnJD
The pure demon races towards him with clenched fists while Hunter thought of a solution.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGfNmYym3n
'Do you have any more tricks I could try?'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1awIaoxZK
"Well, this pure demon is much stronger than you are,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V6UCIMUtX
'Really? I didn't know that!'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH3bQi8cIn
"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,"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhTC3rXPaL
'What if I draw energy from him?'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6D0SsRdF3E
"Too dangerous," his demon replied, "if anything goes wrong you'd end up becoming his puppet."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufBLOFZma0
'So we don't try that, anything else?'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wYkZtkj7h
"Give me control of your body."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCIUxyyYCB
'No, I prefer being in control of my life,'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjQ68Uz6b2
"That precious life of yours is in danger, give me temporary control and I'll deal with the demon."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCG01vxA5Fp
'What's the catch?'
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYj6hGQ9Sq
"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
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡToiYnuSTVK
"Fine."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ud0jIAXOW
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYH65zn2anq
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4AWeP2pDT
"Those markings ..." the pure demon said shocked,
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAX7xEZlIa7
Demon Hunter formed a button-up shirt out of nothing and started to put it on.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecnDtYztR9
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMcmmdJXmE
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Hkl1Kpwh7
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5QVbQmstt
"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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgukdXqtXJD
"Hunter?" a voice called from behind, Demon Hunter's pupil move to the side to see Lauren with Zoe by her side.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzwGYuK8xC
"Looks like the fun's over," he muttered to himself before giving back control to Hunter.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBtYDWSlm4k
***
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTscAbsJdB
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7P8fuxLpp
"Miss Lauren," Hunter says, his voice low, "what happened to the demon?" He groggily asked
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1MBpwD0AT
"You defeated it," she replied calmly
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrIimrhkwN
"I did? Cool cool cool cool."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoxLhAfnZ6
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.
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIVSCMaifr
"Why am I behind bars though?" He asked
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbBbscXEN5
"Because you're under arrest," Mr. Daniel stated
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoMgKL1FuR
Hunter's mouth dropped to the floor, his eyes opening wide, "For what? Why?"
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghyPCJSXDz
"You are a user of the forbidden art, chaos magic."
298Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGebaG4e0GA
