Chapter 6 - Chapter 006: The Illusion of Power

"Hah, who are you brat? Its exciting to know that there's someone else who can take my strength," The guildmaster faintly laughed, while casually blocking Ladros attacks.

Ladros gritted his teeth throwing a flurry of attacks at the old guildmaster. But most of his attacks were deflected and dodged with easy. The struggle quite irritated Ladros side. He muttered, "I don't care anymore if you're the guildmaster or not, nobody dare to disrespect me and escapes. You're about to be a deadman!"

The guildmastered faintly laughed hearing Ladros bold claim. He also admired his sudden increase in speed of his attacking. "You are brave or might be stupid to say such thing to me, let's find out who's the deadman." His eye glimmer with a bit of excitement in them, he immediately grabbed Ladros leg while throwing a kick at him. The old man grip the leg , he then spun Ladros around before throwing him off far.

Ladros was sent crashing down on his back, before immediately standing up to his two feet. He began releasing small portion of his aura, as he was taking the fight serious then. Black and the others immediately sensed his aura coming out from him.

"Ladros, stop!!" Black yelling.

"Huh, I guess your name is Ladros? What a interesting name you have there," The guildmaster mutteredwith a intrigue expression.

"I guess kids this days have forgotten to show respect for their elders. You think your incredible power makes you superior to others, but to tell you the truth it doesn't. Your generation might be blessed with a lot of power, but you also lack the intelligence to use your brain." The guildmaster stated.

He quickly leaped forward at incredible speed reaching Ladros side. Pulling back his arm getting ready to ttthrowing a serious punch. But his punch was immediately stop by one hand. The person that blocked the punch was Vera, she wore a serious look on her face.

Everybody else was shocked to see her block the attack. Most of the people present did not see the old man speed. Black was surprised on how quick she was as he only saw her when she was approaching the punch. Sonia sneered looking at her side.

Vera gave a serious look at the old man saying, "Guildmaster, is this how we treat new members now."

"What are you saying, new members when?" The old man muttered with a puzzled look.

"I really had no cluehe was a new member. He should have said that to me." The old nervously said looking at Vera face.

Everyone else present excitedly started raising their voices laughing at the guildmaster as he was being scolded by Vera. They were muttering that today Vera was extra serious with scolding him. Some were looking at Ladros direction admiring that he was able to survive the guildmaster punches.

"Hey, I didn't know he was part of the family! Don't worry yourselves by thinking you're going to wash the dishes or clean the floors, that's done by others of our guildmembers," Vera excitedly smiled. She was very excited by having new recruits members for the Demon Slayer Guild. Due to the Demon Slayer Guild's being a well known guild many refuse to join up with it because usually powerful figures join up with the guild.

"What just happened? Huh?"

"Yes!!"

Derek, Riley and Asrael approach the counter with faces filled with excitement receiving the good news. Sonia couldn't contain her joy she jumped around and yelled out loud, Black nodded his head and smiled keeping his expression cool, and Ladros gasped rolling back with an care it, he murmured quietly, "Who cares about this, this isn't the only guild around here. Losers!"

Vera said, asking, "Hey, I never got to ask for your names, so what are your name?"

Sonia announced her name first then, Derek, Asrael, Riley, Ladros and Black.

"Those are foreign names. Are you guys from the surrounding countries, so that means you're strong as well."

"Yeah that's right!" Sonia said pridefully. She then saw Asrael giving a weird look at Vera. What like he was familiar with her, wondering inside if Asrael knows Vera, but how? when there just arrived and it's their first time visit here the mortal realm. 'Has he come here before?' she asking herself.

"Very good to meet you all. I'm Vera, the bar taker here and friend advisor if you need a friend to have quick chat. I'm here for you, hah! I'm happy to have new rookies, it's has been long since we've had them."

"Maybe thats why you're talking this much,"Black said murmured.

"Hey Ladros, why were you about to fight the guildmaster? You know if you were to mess things up for us, Sonia would have killed you for real this time," Black stated with a hard tone. Ladros looked aside not caring with it, "One of this days you will regret trying to piss her off, she'll teach you a very good lesson, hah!"

"What are you smirking for, I don't care about her, and that old man who made me a fool by making me look weak in front of this people." Lados said.

"Don't think about it, Sonia won't forgive if you do anything stupid to ruin this for her, just put aside your ego and pride for her Ladros," Black said.

"Yeah, yeah! Alright!"

In the afternoon while the sunset on the east. Inside of the Demon Slayer Guild's in upstairs floor room, Black and the others were unpacking their begs.

"She told me that we could stay here inside until tomorrow we sign in," Black said with casually laugh.

"She a nice person," Sonia said with a smile.

"Yeah she is..."

"What was that Black? It seem like you're starting to like her," Sonia glare curiously.

"Hmm?"

"No, I'm not...maybe she has fascinate somehow me," Black said, looking towards the far.

Meanwhile back in the demon realm, inside the Naberius mansion.

Klaus walked inside the kitchen, finding Hayley preparing tea. He slowly approach her side grabbing her slim elegant figure pulling her close, Hayley mouth was close to his own, staring a at her sweet lips moving closer towards looking at her golden yellow eyes.

Hayley cheeks turned red brushing looking at Klaus eyes. The two stared into each other eyes. There surrounding completely disappeared, the only thing that exist was the twomof them.

"I've been looking for you beautiful," Klaus said pulling her closer and closer.

"You've find me, so what?" Hayley puffed her cute red cheeks turning her away her face. Klaus faintly smiled casually looked at Hayley beauty. His lips were placed closer, as he began kissing her lips. Hayley felt a sudden touch inside her heart, while they have been with each other for many centuries the love between them it become more and more flesh. If true loves were a real thing I'm sure there'll be one of them.

Moment later, Hayley brought tea for Klaus, who was casually sitting at the backyard reading the new paper. Hayley placed it the tea down and sat on his lap, kissing him.

"Hey, I haven't seen Black around the house, where is he?" Klaus asked.

Hayley casually replied, "Oh! I forgot to tell you. Him and his friends went to explore the mortal realm."

"What! He has gone where!!"

"To the mortal realm..."

"No, I heard you before."

"What's wrong with them going there?"

"First thing, he didn't ask for my permission to go, and second, the mortal realm has gotten more dangerous than it was before."

" He asked for my permission, and I said yes for him to go, what's wrong with that?"

"There's nothing wrong, but he should have asked for my permission ."

"So you're saying my permission that's matter if you don't agree with me, is that right." Hayley said looking at Klaus.

"No, you're misunderstanding my words. It's just that I had things to show him about controlling hellfire better." Klaus replied.

"Oh that's bad, they already left the demon realm 3 days ago."

"They left after the festival day. What! That boy," Klaus said shocked.

"What are you worried about? He's old enough to walk his own path now, Klaus sir," Hayley aid with a sarcastic voice.

Klaus nodded his head agreeing, and asked "It's nothing, you're right. But where is Issac?"

"Oh that one! He is at his friend house now."

"Uh, I guess my sons don't need me anymore, hhm!" Klaus yawn.

Hayley casually brushes his back and said, "You have me." Klaus and Hayley began laughing, and continued to romance each other.

It's morning in the mortal realm, the sun hasn't fully rised, but it light is still brighten the sky. Sparks of fire coming from the backyard of the guild house. They came from Black, who was training his new hellfire technique.

'How does he do it? But I've master the basic steps. What could I be missing? The technique<> Father has never shown anyone how to use it only me, it's the only technique he had taught me. Wow I'm really pressure to learn it fast now I have to protect my friends, I hope <> it strong enough to protect them all."

"Mmm...!! Hellfire Burning-Prison Storm!! Hhy aah!!" Black kept on firing <> that many hours passed he wasn't close enough to master it.

He took a break on the grass. Casually blowing hellfire off his mouth. Watching him the guildmaster, he then walk towards him. "Huh! So your a demon," He said slowly approaching him, faintly smiling.

"Huh! What! What do you mean by that, I'm a ordinary person just like everyone else."

"The flames you wete using before, are called hellfire right."

Black looked at him with shock, he knows! Clearly he has see it before. He casually serious his face not showing his true expression.

"I've fought many opponents in my life but would not forget those flames. Hellfire it is used by the demon-wolves right. So that would make you a demon-wolf if I am right there."

'Hh..man, I'm find out now, how does this old man know so much about demon-wolves, who is he?'

"Don't worry, I won't slay you right," The guildmaster winked at Black, "But your face is kinda like the demon," Before he could fininsh he was disturb by Vera, rushing towards them.

"Master, we have trouble. Were being attack."

"Is it them again?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Wow man, those foolish kids never learn their lessons."

"Master come on this isn't the time to talk about it, there destroying the guild hall. Hey handsome, ain't you going to join us."

"Nah, I think not," Black said refusing."

"Wow, a strong person like you refusing to fight, why?"

"It's better if the both of us go, he might end up killing them all."

"What!?"

"Nothing, let's go." Vera and the guildmaster ran inside, arrived in the guild hall. Four strange boys were firing attacks throughout the room destroy it. Their names were Paul, Ramos, Thomas and Kisame. They called themselves the four horsemen, who go around causing chaos by destroying guilds trying to prove to people that guilds are useless and people should put too much hopes on them protecting them, there're not superheroes.

"Hey you four there! Stop this now, or you're going to regret it," said Vera with a angry facial expression.

"You four don't seem to get the memo when I keep on beating you up, okay fine, I'm not going to go easy on you today you brought this on yourself. I'll beet the living hell out of you four." The guildmaster spoke with a hard and deep tone.

"Old man you're not going to beat us now, we have power magic with us now," The one who spoke was Ramos, who was arrogant and prideful. He had brown hair and dark brown eyes. He wore black jackets, black pants, and brown shoes. He had a tall stature of all the four , having a large masculine body also.

[Sixteen Gate - The Shinning Kingdom] Ramos fired up a light daggers surrounding the guildmaster in every direction. The guildmaster look up with out any hesitation dispelling all of them. Ramos fired non stop attacks at him, he was still shocked by how easily the guildmaster is dispelling, like there not even effecting him at all.

"How is this impossible, this old man is dispelling my attacks like it's nothing, how is that impossible."

"It is impossible! The magic you have gives you so much power. What level are you using , maybe the level you're using too low for him," said Paul. He had dark hair and brown eyes. He wore a white shirt with black lines all around, and blue pants. He was the leader of the group. He was quite handsome and intelligent also. He didn't have Ramos physic but he was quite fit also.

"I'm now using level 7." said Ramos.

"What! The old man is that strong, woww this is going to be hard than I thought," said Paul.

Exchanges were given on Vera side fight the other two, Thomas and Kisame. Thomas had blue hair and ocean blue eyes. He wore a blue jacket with a black shirt, and dark blue pants.

Kisame had dark hair and white pale skin tone. He wore a white shirt, with dark blue pants and black shoes. The a quiet presence about him, showing g him as someone who did not talk too much.

"How is this happening? This wasn't supposed to be this hard this time!" Ramos had a angry with. He was thinking that if the had any chance of beating the old man. He had used level 9 of his magic item, but it didn't scare the old man at all, he started to wonder if he should use the item in-full power, but it's risky if he uses it, it could end up killing him by do it.
