The Rise Of Calamity

Lagua city - Office

Back in the office of the red-haired beauty, I sat down comfortably on one of the seats while sizing the woman in front of me without looking at her directly.

'My 360-degree vision is so useful' I thought while my lustful thoughts ran wild. Even though she could feel my gaze at the moment, she did not realize it was me, as I was clearly looking away. She had even checked for any soul vision or appraisals that I might have been using on her by checking the soul energy and the mana in the area, but there was none.

'What the hell' She looked at me, who was too 'busy' looking at one of the paintings in her office

"So, should we get started?" She announced to get my attention, which she got, even though my attention was already on her the whole time.

"So, I want to ask you to join my guild, Discarded Devils." She asked straightforwardly.

'Straight to the point huh? Reminds me, I am not here to stare at her ass all day but to actually join a guild.'

"And I'd like to join" I replied simply while getting myself ready for any more questions.

"Good! Now, I'd like to ask, what can you bring to the guild, and what can we bring to you? Depending on what you bring to the guild, you will be paid handsomely and fairly for all the work you did" She asked with a trademark smile

"Uhm well. What kind of jobs do I have to do if I do join this guild?" I asked back while crossing my legs and putting both my hands on my upper knee. Instantly, an aura of dominance created mostly out of the divine aura I cannot control exuded, pushing down on everything around me, even including the woman.

'What is this! I cannot feel any mana, nor any soul energy... Yet she is exuding so much pressure that it would probably make anyone below her level of strength feel their legs buckling!' She was screaming in her mind while my eyes were a red flag to her instincts, constantly flaring danger signs as she looked into them.

And they were not wrong. First off, no, she cannot feel divine soul energy since she is technically just a mortal, and secondly, he instincts were completely right. Now that she was looking me in the eye, I could easily put her into a nightmare through the skill, Eyes of Vanity.

"We do everything. And by everything, I mean everything that is deemed professional." She puffed up her chest a little.

"You see, not everyone has the same definition for the word professional. While I might think it means business, appropriate and overall, sensible, another might think professional might mean business at all costs. Whether that would be through the use of prostitution, illegal businesses or even the black market. So, I'd rather you not be so vague." My voice had a little bit of contempt in it as I spoke with the woman.

However, to my surprise, she just started to laugh randomly, yet at the same time, in a low tone as if she didn't want someone to hear her.

"Well well. I'm quite happy with that response. But to answer your question, we don't do business at the consequence of our own, but rather at the consequence of others. Yes, we might get into prostitution, gambling, and even the black market, but none of our own will have to do any of that. You are mercenaries, adventurers, and most of all, warriors. While one day I might ask you do preform an assassination on a large investor, the next I might ask you to go into the wild and kill a few beasts." She replied with a huge grin on her face.

'She is an egoist huh... I like her'

"And, in a certain way, I choose people who I think will be useful for all those things."

"Yeah, but how do you know I am good at all those things, or even have any of the skills needed to preform the tasks?" I raised a brow.

"Well, I don't need to. Most of the people in this guild have at least 3 different skills, and I'm pretty strict when it comes to this. It is also why we only have established this guild in three other cities, and also why our ranking is so low. You on the other hand are nothing compared to those people. A part of my job is to be able to look into people and their personalities and abilities with a single glance

You are not about to fool anyone with that 'I am not suspicious' look. I can feel that you grin at the pain of your enemies, and bathe in the blood of those who try to go against you, and that is exactly what I need! Plus, your skills more than makeup for it. I saw your display of power, I looked at your card and saw you have the light affinity for battle, lighting for speed assassination, earth for defense, and even fire for the attack. Let's not even mention magma

You are basically a walking box of destruction, waiting to be opened to release calamity on the world." She finally took air into her lungs and got back onto the seat that she did not realize she stood up from. The whole time, she had an almost evil smile, yet it made me feel even more tingly inside.

"If you know all that, why did you ask me what I would bring to the guild?" I asked the question on my mind

"To test you" She replied almost too quickly with a cute yet terrifying glint of excitement in her eyes

"Of course it was..." I sighed dejectedly before continuing "Then? What do I gain from joining this guild?"

"Experience, resources, fame, you name it. I can give it all to you..." She paused and looked at me in the eyes before a seductive smile curled up the corners of her lips and she disappeared from my view.

"..."

A second later, a voice came from my right ear, making a shiver go down my spine, but not for long.

"All the women you want, or maybe, I might even repay you... My... Own... Way..." Her beautiful succubus-like voice echoed in my ear while her whisper tickled my ear, making me feel something new. Something I have never felt before. Something that I could not even feel in my last life.

I could feel a string getting pulled in my heart, while my whole body reacted by moving all my limbs a little closer to the center of my body.

'What is this feeling? Maybe I'm horny?'

I did not dwell on those feeling for too long as I immediately regained my composure and said in a monotone voice;

"You do know, right? I am a girl"

"So?" She replied nonchalantly before a grin formed on her face and she said "I saw the way you look at people, and even me. I know you are attracted to women..."
