however, he was killed.

it happened after a few events. someone had gained enough EXP and leveled up with amazing speed. they were fed up with the game. they didn't want everyone going to war.

so they made the decision. the decision to kill the man and end the stupid game once and for all. and they did. it almost caused the entire universe to be destroyed though. but they ended the game. they destroyed the man entirely.

the fallen angels were terrified. they didn't want to be killed. and so they made a deal with them. the fallen angels agreed to act as supporters for the people and aid them in their journey.

Kiru : Boss! We've got a new member!

Akumo : Did you put him through the test?

Kiru : Yes boss! He passed it!

Akumo : Good. Put him with the beginners.

Kiru : Yes boss!

Kiru leaves the room in a hurry as if he had something else important to do. Akumo watches as he leaves before he goes back to looking at the papers he had on his desk. Akumo's desk looks very disorganized.

Pencils with blunt ends were thrown around and erasers that were broken in half were scattered around as well. The pens in the mesh cylindrical container were not touched though. A lot of papers were spread out across the desk as well. They all had scribbles on them. The scribbles were messy so it is hard to make out what they are saying. A lot of eraser dust is on the floor as well.

Akumo taps his pencil to some rhythm as he stares at the scribbles on the paper. He lets out a sigh and stands up with some force. It sends some papers flying to the floor. He moves from his desk to a bed, tucked away in a corner that you would not notice it in the room. Akumo lies down, and stares at the ceiling. A blank slate that stared back at the male.

Akumo lets out another sigh. He seems to be frustrated about something. Akumo sits up. He then stands and walks towards the wooden door. He opens it and leaves the messy room as it is. The door locks with a click.

He walks down the barren hallway. The lights flicker above. The concrete walls were covered with cracks and there was exposed rebar. Akumo takes light steps as he moves forward. Finally escaping from the barely lit hallway, he steps outside. The doors were broken and have detached so it was pretty easy to leave and enter. People were outside. A lot of them were training up their skills and some were testing their new ones out.

Kiru had been monitoring them with a  serious look until he saw Akumo coming over. Everyone greeted him as he passed by.

Kiru : Boss!

Kiru was just about to run over to give Akumo a big hug, but was quickly stopped by large tentacles that sprouted from Akumo's back.

Kiru : C'mon!

Akumo : You know I hate these kinds of things.

Akumo slowly lets Kiru down onto the ground.

Kiru : Fine! Anyways, what are you doing here boss?

Akumo : Just to check up on our members.

Kiru : They're doing pretty good right? I've worked really hard to train them!

Osore : Yeah right.

Osore appears after jumping off a tall bushy tree, that seemed to have concealed his presence completely.

Osore : You're just saying that to look good in front of boss, when in fact you've been lazing around!

Kiru : Hey! I did not!

Akumo : Whatever, you both are doing a good job. Anyways, I'm here to make an announcement as well.

Akumo walks up to a mini stage made up of cardboard boxes piled and pasted together. It did not make the scene look dramatic, but Akumo had to make do with what he had. When he walked onto the stage, everyone turns towards him immediately. He seems to have some sort of aura that makes everyone listen to him. He reaches the center and coughs.

Akumo : I've got an announcement to make. So, I've appealed to the Kunshu Commission. They're giving us one last chance to enter a Orika and level ourselves up. So, I'm counting on everyone here to do as much as they can to help the guild level. After all, what do we want to be?

Everyone : THE NUMBER ONE GUILD!

Akumo : So I trust that everyone can do this?

Everyone : YES BOSS!

Everyone seems to have been riled up after hearing the announcement. Akumo steps off stage and returns to his subordinates.

Kiru : Whoa boss! You're incredible! I can't believe that you managed go secure one last chance for us.

Osore : Of course, he's our boss after all.

Akumo :  I'm counting on you two to make this mission successful. You know what'll happen if you don't.

Kiru and Osore : Yes boss!

Akumo begins to walk back to the room. He lets out a brief sigh.
