Chapter 4: Death

"Geeves!" (Rice)

"Rice!" (Geeves)

The two collided their heads together as they glared at each other.

"How dare you kick me off a cliff you damned wolf! Womanizer! Pervert!" (Geeves)

"Why the hell are you still alive you unknown gender! Trap! Stalker!" (Rice)

The two continued to fight clearly under the effect of the enraged status...well, probably.

Looking over the two, two beings can only sigh at their idiotic behavior.

They were a race called [Phantoms]. Beings that can only exist in darkness. They are the shadow people.

Aurora, he was found by Geeves in a cave near the point where he landed. Aurora is the same as Geeves, meaning, he also has a face that can be mistaken as a girl. Short hair that fell up to his shoulders and an expressionless face.

He was the typical 'Kuudere' look only...well...he's a boy and as for whether he will show a dere side...one can only wait for it to happen.

The other [Phantom], Azoth, was found and freed by Rice.

He was, in a manner of speaking, completely opposite of Aurora. Short hair and a bright expression. He was the typical noisy yet fun guy often found in the class.

["Aha! I knew this will happen!"] (Azoth)

["Haah...can these guys even stand a chance against [Death]?"] (Aurora)

After Aurora's constant nagging, Rice and Geeves broke up reluctantly.

"Tch- so how are we supposed to deal with [Death]?" (Rice)

"How about the damn geezer in the chapel? Maybe he knows the way." (Geeves)

"Give me a break. I doubt I can hold myself back if I ever see that guy's face again..." (Rice)

["Well, nothing we can really do about it right? That guy's the best shot we have."] (Azoth)

After agreeing somewhat, they made their way towards the chapel while Rice and Geeves still glaring at each other.

After the two of them met the [Phantoms], they understand the situation of the mountain better.

It would seem that [Death's] curse takes time to take effect but the caves are more potent when it comes to Dark attributes so the time it took sped up once they entered a cave which led them to be affected by the curse faster than normal.

The [Phantoms] were not affected no matter how long they were here since they seemed to live off in an entirely different plane.

The two [Phantoms] however, were stuck inside the cave they were in for a different reason not even they know.

They only knew that the only one that can free them is the only ones that can see them. [Death] can also see them but it chose not to free them since its spells were not effective against the two which resulted to them hating [Death].

In any case, in order to defeat [Death], they need information. And the prophet is most likely the only one that can give them that.

However, reality can be so cruel.

When the four reached the clearing, they saw the prophet being hold up by a dark figure holding a scythe.

"[Death]!" (Geeves)
