21Fiancé
Ichigo was walking through the school premises towards the help and couldn't help but be impressed.
Leaving the sheer size alone, even the faculties were top tiers, having studied at the local Karakura High all his life, he had only seen these type of schools or colleges only in movies. But it was a world class Academy for a reason after all.
This caused Ichigo to have some second thoughts, whether it was truly right for him to withhold such a huge opportunity. There were two reasons for this:
1) The friendly atmosphere between humans and non-humans, and it didn't seem like the non-humans were acting, considering he could see their emotions through the ribbon technique.
2) The biggest reason was ofcourse his own his own luck and past in the other world, he worried about the safety of his sisters. And a school such as this was very likely to have a good security.
But even if he allowed them to go, the age old worry remained -MONEY.
Just then a voice called out-
'Next!'
Looks like he had arrived at his destination the Help Desk except there were atleast 20 people in line before him. WOW.
Underworld,
"What?" Sirzechs Lucifer, one of the four Maou of the Underworld asked his Wife/Queen/Maid in beffudelment.
It was very much understandable as even someone of his standing and calibre can't digest this news easily.
"It is as I stated, there are reports of 7 Underworld Volcanoes being frozen solid and Another is on the way, and reports state that Lady Leviathan is the one causing this." Grayfia Lucifuge stated in her ever so calm and monotonous voice.
"Wow... When Behemoth submitted the report that Serafall was taking a break and wanted to be left alone, I thought that another one of her movies failed or she had a fight with Sona-chan at worst. But...wow... What could have happened to cause Serafall so much anger... Did Behemoth say anything?"
"Negative. She refused all our methods of prying information saying it was Lady Leviathan's personal affairs."
"*Sigh* I respect her loyalty but.. seriously this is just a diplomatic disaster waiting to happen... Grayfia,dear,please send this info to Sona-chan, only she can stop Serafall."
"At once, My Lord"
Grayfia bowed towards her Husband and left to do the task at hand, leaving behind his complaints of
"How many times must I tell you, you are my wife,you don't have to do this."
It had only been a few since Grayfia left but someone barged into his office heaving for breath.
Sirzechs looked up in surprise to the intruder, it was Surtur II, one of his peerage members. He was a gentle guy so it was very shocking for the Maou to see him barge into his office.
Before he could speak, Surtur started speaking
"Azazel..he..*breathing roughly* he " Just the mention of that name wiped all the calm from the Lucifer's expression as a heavy pressure started emanating from him.
"Azazel...What did he do?!" Sirzechs demanded in a serious tone
It was understandable, after all, Azazel may have settled down in the recent decades but he was known as the worst Fallen Angel in the history for a reason.
But contrary to Sirzechs expectations Surtur II quickly shook his hands and head.
" .. no. He didn't do anything. No that's not right. He did cause an incident but he didn't hurt anyone... probably."
This only confused Sirzechs
"What do you mean?"
"He...that man..he held a World Assembly in a few weeks time."
"What!" Sirzechs screeched contrary to his image.
This day was continuing to give him one headache after another.
"That madman...just what is he up to now?" Sirzechs weakly complained as he sat back on his chair.
A World Assembly was something technically anyone could hold as long as they possessed the strength equal to Top 10.
For those who don't know, Top 10 wasn't just the 10 strongest people in the world but rather it was a power classification. And those who were even stronger would be in Top 5 and finally even stronger ones in Top 3. So far only 6 people were given the title. So one should never take the name literally.
Anyway, returning back to the topic.
Anyone of the Top 10 could hold the meeting but that was just a technicality. If one didn't have a good justification for the meeting, they would provoke the ire of all the factions. As this World Assembly forced every single Faction Chief to attend compulsorily. No matter what one was doing they had to leave it all behind and attend.
Sirzechs held his head and felt like fainting but even more, he wanted to strangle Azazel. If that bastard didn't have a good reason he may as well start another faction war.
But with his years of knowing that man managed to calm him down. He knew that despite all his craziness that man did everything with a purpose.
He just hoped it wasn't a suicidal one.
Back with Ichigo,
It was finally Ichigo's turn. The line was long enough already but each person was taking so long. Ichigo felt like he must have waited in line for more than 30 minutes already.
"Name"
Before Ichigo could say anything the admin lady who was obviously too busy to look up from her computer asked monotonously.
"Kurosaki Ichigo"
"Let's see..*click* *click* *click*" The lady muttered as she furiously began typing on the computer.
"Hmm... A full scholarship? That's interesting. Anyways, What are your sizes?"
"Huh?" Ichigo was just plain confused as to what the lady was even saying he only applied for admission not scholarship thing. And what's this about Sizes.
As if hearing Ichigo's confusion the lady finally looked up she was obviously pretty even with her glasses and baggy clothes. But ofcourse she was no where near the beauty of Orihime or Rukia or even the girl he just met outside.
"Don't tell me you don't know? A full Scholarship means all your needs from books to School Uniforms will all be taken care of by the school. And of course all our Uniform are made from quality materials by a reputed company. So we obviously need your sizes for your Clothes to be ready before the semester starts. Didn't you come here to submit your sizes?"
"No. This is the first time I am hearing about this, I only recieved an admission letter nothing about the scholarship." Ichigo hurriedly said to dispel any doubts and even offered her the Letter he had recieved.
"Wait. Please let me check something." The lady spoke in embarrassment as she called someone and went outside.
Behind him, Ichigo could hear some people saying that he was wasting an opportunity or kicking a gifted horse. But he didn't care, if nothing else Ichigo prouded himself on the morals his mother had instilled in him. Not to mention he didn't want to be seen as a liar in the future.
5 minutes Later,
Soon the Lady came back to the room. Looking at Ichigo she bowed. Unexpected.
"First of all, I apologise for the inconvenience, as for the Scholarship, it's something one of our higher ups decided to sponsor you and..umm.. and your sisters. Anything else I can help you with?"
Meanwhile Ichigo's mind was churning as he heard her some higher up sponsoring him and his sisters. Looking at how this school had more than humans attending it, He was almost sure that it had something to do with Azazel.
Then, if this was arranged by Azazel, it would be rude to reject it. Plus, he was slowly looking forward to this school and it would be a good opportunity for his sisters.
"No, let's just finish the procedures,mine as well as my sisters. Here are their letters."
"Yes, Ofcourse. Please wait a minute."
Behind him once again people began gossiping.
'Did they have nothing better to do than gossip all day?' Ichigo thought with a frown.
Sona Sitri,
Sona was chilling in Student Council Office. Enjoying the peace and tranquility it's quietness brought.
Suddenly a person flashed in her mind. It was the boy she met outside the school spacing out. Usually she would just ignore it but something about the boy pulled her, not in a romantic sense but a compulsion.
Then there was his reaction to her. She had seen genuine happiness and love along with sadness after he realised that she wasn't that Senna girl.
Though, that left a bittersweet feeling in her mouth for some reason. Probably because she felt jealous that it was directed at someone else with a similar looking face. Especially because she knew deep inside that she would be unable to find something like that herself because of her unique position.
Just as Sona was lost in her thoughts, a magic circle appeared in the Student Council Room. Imidiately Sona stood up and roused her demonic energy ready to deal with whoever it was that dared to trespass into Devil Territory.
Soon the light from Magic Circle died down revealing the beautiful form of Grayfia Lucifuge.
Seeing who it was Sona imidiately eased up.
"Good Afternoon, Grayfia-Sama" Sona said with a polite bow. Grayfia was the role model of most female Devils for a reason after all. Even if the only other competition was her sister.
"Good Afternoon, Miss Sona" Grayfia gave a bow to Sona as well, deep in her maid role and imidiately went to the topic.
"I am here to about, Serafall-sama"
"Nee-san? What did she do now?"
Sona sighed in exasperation, as strong as her sister was, she was just as much unsuited to be in a position of power, especially due to that power causing her to pull even more insane stunts actually.
But contrary to what Sona had expected, no reply came. No reply. From Grayfia Lucifuge. The Strongest Queen.
Sona stilled, this was not a good sign in any way.
Unbeknownst to her, Grayfia was weighing her words, not because news was bad. That would never stop her. She was just trying to deliver the news in such a way that would preserve a little bit more of her long time friend's dignity.
In the end she simply said this.
"Serafall-sama has gone on a rampage"
"WHAT?!"
