While you were sprinting towards your house— you noticed a black orb that was bouncing around in an alleyway— which made you stop in your tracks and got you thinking since the alleyway was way too similar to the one you visited a few hours ago.

'Huh? Didn't I already get one here? Hm... Oh well— I still need to do my job so..'

You tried to quickly eradicate it by grabbing it in your hands— but you mistook it for being a small orb when really— it was larger than an infant which got you startled and fell down.

'...eh?'

The black orb looked as if it was mocking you which caused you to get pissed off which it took notice of and ran away.

You got up and quickly dusted herself off before sprinting after the black orb, blood boiling in anger.

"OH YOU PIECE OF FUCKING SHIT!!"

And the chase begins... again.

For some reason, you ended up in the same forest that you were in before— but much more further away from Mash's place.

You'd expect that it'd only be animals and such and that she'd already ate the black orb right? Well no...

When you were still chasing after the huge black orb— it had halted for a few seconds and made a sharp right, as if it was commanded to do so.

This made you confused— black orbs usually have a mind of their own—  either bounce around or just do what they want to.

You followed the black orb, only to be surprised that there were even more of them.

And also a person controlling them? Now this will cause a lot of problems.

BANG!

You shot a bullet near the rando- intimidating them.

"W-what!? Who the fuck are you!?"

The stranger was obviously terrified, like imagine someone trying to shoot you????

"Oh— no one that especially important, but mind not gathering up these pieces of shit?"

You were pissed that someone gathered up all of these black orbs in one spot- which will obviously cause many problems for you meaning more disturbances in this storyline.

"Hah!? Who are you to tell me-"

'W-wait... don't tell me it's one of the exterminators!?'

They shivered in fear as they realised that they had an exterminator on their tail. The punishment would never be that light if anyone was caught gathering up these black orbs. But the power they possess when handled properly is quite a powerful one.

"Listen, if you can just release all of these orbs I'll let you off with a warning. And you know what happens when you don't."

You warned them, not really wanting to take another life of a stubborn person. But alas— they were stubborn and tried to flee after trying to hit an attack on you.

"Hm, were you even trying?"

"S-shut up! You won't ever understand why I'm doing this-"

You shot another bullet using your gun, almost hitting their face. Causing a light scratch on their skin.

"Yeah, maybe I won't. But it's as if you're thinking I want to do this. I really don't want to."

You sighed exhaustedly when they tried to conjure up a strong spell after absorbing multiple black orbs.

"This... power they possess! Its exhilarating! Maybe then, I can finally be redeemed he-"

You interrupted their inner monologue by piercing through their chest, causing them to spit out blood mixed with ink.

"Can you like... stop being addicted? That's literally why the number one rule is to leave these black orbs to us."

You quickly released them, taking their contaminated soul in the process of it, causing them to tumble on the ground— no life remaining from them.

You held onto the black soul, toying with it as you went towards the very still body, crouching.

"Wanna see a magic trick?"

Your grin was manic as you placed it above you mouth.

"Abra..."

You then dropped it in your mouth, crunching the soul using your teeth.

"Kadabra."

With one final chew, the body disappeared as well as the soul. You got up and yawned in boredom.

"Mann, I wanted to use my gun more- too bad..."

Just then, you sensed a purple orb coming your way, gradually picking up more speed. To which you dodged it swiftly.

'Hm, looks like Brad's already at Mash's place... it's a shame I can't help.'

'...'

Then a sudden realization hit you- the examination to enter Easton's magical academy is tomorrow, causing you to yell in frustration.

"WHYYYYYYY!!! WHY DO I ALWAYS FORGET THE THINGS THAT ARE SO IMPORTANTTTT!!"

You quickly made the preparations to enter Easton's magical academy, such as the clothing, registration, etc. And then returned home, exhausted..

lack orbs can be differentiated based on their behaviour and size. They normally don't have any sort of facial expressions until they are in their medium size. But in rare occasions- even the tiny orbs can have facial expressions, talk, and maybe even kept as pets!

Black orbs can also be used as drugs. In a sense that they make you feel high while using magic- they can enhance your magic extremely, durability, speed, etc. With only the downside that you literally will turn into ink if you underestimate their power and misuse them.

You don't take kindly towards people who use black orbs for their own gain- and instead try to convince them by threatening- bribing, etc.

The only way you can actually save those whose already been contaminated by ink due to excess of usage in black orbs is by taking their lives, by simply- taking their soul and destroying it.

(Although you really have a weird and disgusting way in destroying the soul..)

Exterminators are termed that way since... they literally exterminate those who misuse the power of the black orbs.

You... really are forgetful...
