Chapter seventy
The closet is thick with dusk as Aito is tied to the pole and against the wall.
Nazaka: "im not joining you!"
She said angry.
Aito: "Please! Your an angel aren't you? Find it In your heart to help us!"
Aito said to which Nazaka reveals.
Nazaka: "Organization Umbral Synod removes any human emotions from your brain the moment your born and you fuse very early in life."
She says as she leans on the wall.
Aito: "Listen. Just for a bit. Who made you go through that?"
Aito asked.
Nazaka: "Toruu."
She mumbles.
Aito: "And organization Equinox are trying to kill Toruu!"
Aito said to which Nazaka sighed.
Nazaka: "So?"
She says waiting.
Aito: "So join us!"
Aito says.
Nazaka: "Yeah. But Toruu is your older brother why the switch up?"
Nazaka asks.
Aito: "He isn't! He lied! He wiped my memory gave me lies and made me believe them!"
Aito says to which Nazaka stands shocked.
Aito: "Nazaka what's your mom's name?"
Aito asked.
Nazaka: "I can't remember."
Nazaka said as Aito nodded.
Aito: "exactly he wiped your memory too!"
Aito proclaimed.
Nazaka: "No that's probably from to much beer over time..."
She said sighing.
Aito: "Your childhood crush?"
Aito asked.
Nazaka: "I don't remember having a crush on anyone."
She said.
Aito: "Okay. You said from a young age you fuse right?"
Aito asked.
Nazaka: "Yeah."
She answered.
Aito: "So what was the name of the angel you fused with? I fused with the Devil Aamon one of hells gatekeepers."
Aito said as Nazaka thought.
Nazaka: "I don't remember her name."
Nazaka said.
Aito: "listen. Does the angel even have a name?"
Aito asked.
Nazaka: "I don't think."
She said shyly.
Aito: "You were born an angel."
Aito says the weight dropping on Nazaka and threatening to crush her.
Nazaka: "that can't be! Toruu saved me and the others from that terrible place!"
She said as Aito kept putting pressure on her.
Aito: "Or did he kidnap you? Because he kidnapped me. I lived a whole 13 years under Equinox. I think. Or was it 14?"
Aito said as Nazaka broke a shelf.
Nazaka: "I don't believe you!"
She said putting her hand in his face and summoning a white ball of Light mana threatening to blast his head off.
Aito: "Listen. Your mad I get it I was too when I learned my past. But we need you. And don't worry about Toruu finding you. It's scary I know. But at organization Equinox we're -3000 levels deep into hell."
Aito said to which Nazaka answered.
Nazaka: "I'm not allowed to go into hell."
She said as Aito looked confused.
Aito: "who said?"
Aito asked.
Nazaka: "Toruu..."
She said making Aito scoff.
Aito: "Alright listen. Put the light ball away."
Aiot said to which she lowers her hand.
Aito: "we need you for a purpose. At Umbral Synod all the members over talk you and neglect you. Your strong! Stronger then me at 100%! Maybe even more!"
She starts looking softer.
Aito: "So how about you join us. Just. Join us."
Aito said as she thought.
Nazaka: "I can't."
She says making Aito confused.
Aito: "Why?"
He says getting a bit annoyed.
Nazaka: "Toruu said I can't go into-"
Aito cuts her off by knocking the pole he's tied to onto the ground falling onto the ground.
Aito: "We need you! Your part of us! A light in a dark tunnel!"
Aito said as she reluctantly nodded.
Nazaka: "Only if you promise to protect me."
She said as Aito nodded.
Aito: "i make an oath that I'll protect you with my life!"
Aito said as mana started flowing between the two.
Aito: "What the-"
Aito looks as Nazaka who's glowing Gold and chanting.
Nazaka: "You'll become my Knight then."
She says as she shoots a golden mana ball hitting him straight on.
Aito: "what are you doing to me..."
Aito said before losing vision.
Nazaka: "You made the oath. I'm just finishing it."
Nazaka said as Aito passed out.
Nazaka: "Now we share pain. And life."
A bit later Vexara and Kixmiyo seen Nazaka walking carrying Aito with her.
Vexara: "Xaelito!"
She ran up about to attack Nazaka.
Vexara: "I knew we shouldn't have trusted a Angel!"
She said as Aito stopped her.
Aito: "No Vexara. She's part of Equinox now. And I have a match in three hours..."
Aito said as Vexara looked pressed she's jealous but knows she can't attack a comrade.
Vexara: "Crap."
She muttered angry.
Kixmiyo: "Alright Aito we'll take Nazaka back home. You focus on recovery and winning this match. For us. For me."
She said as the three teleport back home.
