The Esper Devil ( Esper OC X Highschool DxD )

Chapter 14 - Revelations and Considerations

"Argh..."

My head hurts like a bitch

What happened?

My blurred vision starts coming back to normal and I begin to make sense of my surroundings

I'm in some kind of large room, which is decorated as a standard living area, there are sofas, chairs, a table, a large mat and I'm laying at some sort of bed

What am I doing here?

I try to get up, but it seems like I'm stuck in place

What? I can't move?

... 

!

That's right!

I was poisoned! Shit, shit shit shit!

Did it had to be poison?! From all the days to forget my mask!

I remember I was fighting against Rias and her group and then...

The dark skinned girl with silver hair! She was a demon! 

The dark devil! She was the one who poisoned me!

"Ughh"

I try to move, but I can't, it seems like there's something holding me down

"Fufufu, seems like he woke up"

"Amazing, that amount of poison just to put him down for a few minutes."

"He's really something..."

I start to recognize the shapes of the ones in the other side of the room, a tall girl with disheveled white hair, a delicate looking girl with vivid purple hair and a flower on it, an old man with a beard, a blue haired girl with glasses and a hairband... and the dark devil!

"Who are you?! Why are you keeping me here?"

The dark devil comes to me and rests her hand in my cheek

"Don't worry, we are not your enemies"

I move my face to get away from her touch

"Like hell you aren't! You poisoned me! And you all reek of demonic energy!"

She makes a pouting face and puts one finger up as if lecturing me

"That's rude Kageyama-kun! But it's okay, I know you are nervous, but we'll help you understand what happened"

What is that? Why is she trying to strike a conversation now?

"LET. ME. GO!"

I'm not going to negotiate with demons that are trying to kill heroes!

BLAM

I use my telekinesis to lift in the air the bed which I'm binded to and all the objects of the room

"Woah, calm down!"

She says stepping back

"Why can't I move?"

"This is a magic binding, you gonna need a lot of power to break it, but I wouldn't explode here if I were you"

"Why not?"

"This is a hotel that belongs to my family, which means there are a lot of humans here, you wouldn't want to start a fight here, right?"

"W-what?"

I ask confused, what does she mean? We are in a hotel?

"Look"

She puts a hand on the ground and I see a vision of a family living on the floor below us, they are talking and eating like they don't know they are being watched
