Den of Monsters: 3rd Year [On Pause]

Y3 Vol 3: Council with the Lords

(Ayanokoji Kiyotaka's POV)

The past is something that i can without a doubt admit is very hard to cope with, leaving what scars were made on one's body can be much more exhausting than letting them seethe.

And i am sure the same applies to Accelerator, the mysterious individual who punched his way into my life and somehow turned me from 'Runaway masterpiece' to 'Treacherous masterpiece'.

In truth, ever since i met him, i was always curious about who exactly he is. He has only two names and neither one is his true one, the story that Shoyo gave out to me although feasible was a bit absurd to believe.

Some boy existed out there in the world with one of the greatest mind in the country and he just so happens to live within the same block as Pandora and Shoyo and he decided to approach Shoyo and ask him to be strong?...

It's a bit absurd to believe unless proven entirely truthful, the one thing i know for sure is true, is that Accelerator before meeting Last Order was indeed a monster like any other.

He did seek strength but why he did that in the first place, where did he even come from, who even are his parents?

And how exactly did such a weirdly specific coincidence come by so easily?...

I stood beside Accelerator in a car that was quite far at the front of the train, we've gone past all the entertainment and housing areas here and are currently just on standby beside this golden door and it's guards.

"Tsk...How long are these assholes gonna keep us waiting?!" Accelerator angrily grumbled as he put his hands in his pockets.

"They said we need to wait for two others who will be joining us" i replied as i looked to the two guards who stood quite steady, they didn't even bat us an eye.

Suddenly one of the doors of the car's back opened and from it came three individuals.

A guard who wore a similar outfit to the ones standing by the big door and with him are...

"Oh!!! Zoroaster you're here!" William, one of the two who came with the guard suddenly called out to me with a joyous smile.

I nodded lightly before turning to Lelouch, the other person who came with the guard.

"I can't say i didn't expect this" i said to Lelouch who looked...quite nervous.

"Y-Yeah i guess, can i talk to you lot for a sec before we enter?" he said as he pointed to the far side of the car, away from the guards.

Me, William and Accelerator all looked to one another before nodding in a slightly confused manner.

We followed Lelouch away from the guards as he took a deep breath and let it out before putting on a stern expression.

"There's a few things that you three must keep in mind before we enter. The first of them being that the people we'll be talking with inside aren't exactly as casual as talking with someone like say...Professor Ayanokoji or the old chairmen" he said as i rubbed my chin in thought.

"Huhh?! Who the fuck are we even going to be meeting?!" William asked to which Lelouch sighed.

"You're going to meet a few lords of the Clock Tower! They're the kind of people you don't want to make an enemy out of if you want to stay on this earth for long!!" he declared back in response as William's eyes narrowed indifferently.

"Boriiiiing, say something more threatening than death will you?" 

Lelouch sighed as he turned to Accelerator who was listening silently to him.
