Chapter 905 My Beautiful Monster Part 6

MAMORU

"The point is, you stayed by Lucifer's side to gather valuable intel. The reason why Lucifer never harmed Ki, is surely because of you."

At those words Toh frowned. "No, I don't think that's the case." He trailed off. "Mamoru, how much have you found out about Lucifer?"

"From what I have learned, Lucifer's attitude is strange. There are times where he seems like a kind gentleman, and strong leader type. But other times, he acts like a monster who disregards women and kills people on the spot." Mamoru said.

He isn't sure if this is what Toh wants to hear. But, this is the only information that stands out to him. He is getting two different pictures regarding Lucifer. One of the reasons why Ki and him keep fighting is Lucifer. Neither of them can come to an agreement on him.

'But Ru, Lucifer has never actually harmed me directly. I know there is all that stuff that happened in Star town. But the Lucifer I met then, just seemed so different. Since he started D entertainment, he hasn't actually lead any of the events or directed the attacks towards me. Perhaps we can negotiate with him.'

Recalling their last conversation before she had her concert. Mamoru exhaled deeply. He didn't know what has gotten into her,

Why did she suddenly suggest negotiating with Lucifer? He could have sworn that Ki disliked him. But, suddenly when they were discussing him leaving the company and what to do with the information he has learned. She suddenly brought it up.

"Very observant. I should have expected that from you. Lucifer has been cursed. That curse has led to the existence of another creature, living inside of him. A monster."

Mamoru blinked at Toh's explanation. He wasn't sure what he was expecting.

"Right, a monster."

"I'm not kidding about this. But, I guess I'm not in the best mental space to explain this. Come back in three days, I'll calm down before then."

Mamoru nodded. "If you need anything just call." With those words he exited the room.

The entire way down, Mamoru thinks about the small piece of information Toh gave him. A monster, and a curse - unfortunately these are two topics he is unfamiliar with. The best person who would know more about this would be Atsuro. But, Atsuro has kept himself occupied since Ki's disappearance. When he asked Nakura about it, he said 'Atsuro is working on something that will help Sumire.'

Mamoru glanced over to find Atushi standing by the doorway.

"Just came to check on you. Are you doing okay?"

Mamoru laughed weakly. "Well, as much as a half dead guy can feel yes."

Atushi frowned. "The issue with the Holy Knights management shouldn't fall on your shoulders. Maybe I should--"

He shakes his head. "You have to take charge of akagumi in Ki and Yuhi's absence."

Atushi sighed. "I know. But you shouldn't be pushing yourself too much. Masaru's around, so he should drag him to help you."

Mamoru laughed. "You don't have to worry so much. I will be fine. Have you learned anything about Ki's location?"

"Nagawa Akane has a trail. She stopped by the bar earlier and explained that she was going to follow the lead, and come back in three days."

Recalling the time frame Toh gave him. Mamoru understood. Nagawa Akane must have told Toh first. Indeed, although there are many people worried about Ki. With Narasaki Hino not around, the one in charge should be Toh.

MIYA

Today's job was filling in for Sumire in a short TV drama. At first she wasn't sure if she ought to accept this job. Her acting is average at best. But, the cast seemed to be made up of mainly new people. So she accepted.

1. Glorious Sunshine (+4 weeks)

Covering for Sumire isn't as easy as everyone made it out to be. At the start she found a good rhythm. But when others started covering for Sumire. Miya realized what a poor job she has been doing. Miya exhaled deeply as she slumped on the desk. Sumire, where on earth are you? When she tried to inquire, everyone simply dismissed her and said that 'Sumire is taking a vacation.' Like hell, will she believe such an excuse.

Sumire already regrets being away from work when she was in a mini coma for a week. There is no way, Sumire suddenly decided to take a vacation now.

She continued to scroll through her phone. There were many mixed reactions to Sumire suddenly taking time off. Most of the comments however appear to be positive. Of course, Sumire's concert had a larger impact than others thought. The day after the concert, her single was released and since then it has topped all the musical charts.

'Perhaps I took this idol thing too easily.'

She didn't think it would be this difficult to cover for Sumire.

"If you are going to sigh that much, at least wait until your break." A familiar voice said.

Miya sighed and turned her attention to the source of the voice. "Oh great Shin-senpai, you finally graced yourself with my presence."

Nakara Shin, one of the members of the boy band EMMA and a senior member of the company she signed with, Jupiter records.

"This is my break. The director is waiting on another artist, who is supposedly stuck in traffic."

"There was no traffic on the way here."

"Exactly." Miya said.

She is learning far too much about the entertainment industry in just a short amount of time. 'I knew it wasn't all glitter and glamour, but seeing so much backstabbing, cheating is hard even for me.'

Shin pulled up a chair to sit beside her. "Have you read the script?"

"I have.A typical teen romance plot."

"Sumire said that too."

"That's not surprising. Sumire's always hated the typical cheesy romance plot-" Miya trailed off seeing Nakura Shin's pale complexion. "Are you sure you should even be here if you're unwell?"

"It's only a light fever, I shall be fine. Today's the first day of filming, so it would look bad if I don't show up."

"Hmm, but I'm surprised you're part of the cast. Isn't EMMA a top group?"

Shin shakes his head. "Unlike most groups, EMMA still lacks experience. So, the president and Atsuro decided that we ought to take on small jobs like this."

"I see."

"I heard you were against this initially, will you be alright?"

"Siena-san has been helping me a lot. So, I think I'll manage."
