*back to Dorians POV*
Well its been two weeks since we've been taking care and watching over Julian. So far there have been no more attacks, though i have been wondering why Julian doesnt have any bodyguards besides us. Not even any spec ops from the Empire. I asked the others about this and they told me,
Dag:"Its because his father is using all his resources to fight the war. He didnt want to devote any guards to his sons well being. If one of them dies, the next person in line will have the throne, he doesnt care."
Dorian:"Julian i have no idea how you can defend your dad, he sounds like one of the biggest pieces of shit mankind has to offer. -1 Faith in humanity man."
Julian:"Well besides that, i really just wanted to go to school normally, thats why i have you guys as guards. The only people who would attack are agents of my brothers and the warmongerers of Eternia."
Dorian:"Thats still not a good excuse though. If anything, that makes matters worse on the subject."
Thia:"Im gonna have to agree with Dorian on that Julian. Huh... Dorian and Julian, your names are very similar."
Dorian:"Youre getting a bit off subject there Thia. Its like you had a blond moment."
Julian:"Whats that supposed to mean?" Oh great, here comes the butthurt.
Dorian:"Where i come from, its a joking stereotype, that blonds are dumb. That they are scatterbrained and dont think things through. From what ive seen of this world however, the stereotype seems to have been carried over."That got a few chuckles from the others.
Julian:"Well we have a stereotype that people with black hair are cursed to be impotent."
Lilith:"Hes cursed, but its definately not impotence i can tell you."
Dorian:"You sure you didnt mean impertinant. You know, always being an ass and contradicting others. Having no care for social station. Cause thats how i am." Fuck the Caste system.
Dag:"Yeah that definately is how you are."
Lilith:"Your personality is like a breath of fresh air."
Julian:"More like a breath of pestilence."
Dorian:"You really shouldnt talk about yourself like that Julian. You just need to brush your teeth more." And que the rimshot.
*Badum tist*
There ya go.
Dag:"We should get going guys, the opening ceremony starts in an hour and we still need to pick our class subjects. Speaking of class, still cant figure yours out Dorian?"
Dorian:"Well its not like im gonna have some sort of Divine revelation. Well... maybe. I still have no idea. Whenever i go to my class description, i see nothing but question marks."
Lilith:"Dont joke about divine revelations Dorian. The Gods could be paying attention and choose to screw you over."
Dorian:"Are you telling me that i havnt already been screwed? Well thats news to me."
Lilith:"You know what i mean."
Dorian:"Yes love, i know. Lets get going you guys. Im eager to make my decision on my school classes."
You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.
We then head over to the academy, and i must say, talk about grandiose. How i didnt see it from far away i have no idea.
The Academy seems to have been built around one of the biggest mountains ive ever seen, maybe even bigger than Mt. Everest. And Everest is a good couple of thousands of feet tall. It is the largest mountain on earth so i guess thats a bit of an understatement. You know what i mean however.
The Academy seems to be built like a layered wedding cake, with the most amount of buildings at the bottom and eventually thinning out to a tower at the top.
Sorta reminds me of True Cross Academy from Blue Exorcist. Damn good show. But if i have Mephisto as the principal, im gonna just walk away. I dont want to deal with that shit.
Lilith:"You will stay and deal with it Dorian. Though you dont have to worry about him being the Principle. The Demon Prince Mephisto is currently on the front lines."
Dorian:"Well who is the Principle, no one tells me anything."
Thia:"Thats because you never ask anything."
Dorian:"Touchè"
Dag:"The principle is Lucifer Morningstar, the Leader of the Fallen."
You are shitting me. Satan will be my principle.
Dorian:"Lilith, after this, we are having a nice long conversation on the gods and pantheons of this world."
Lilith:*sighs*"Fine~" Dont you 'fine' me missy.
She just rolled her eyes.
I now know why my mom would get angry when i did that.
We then head to the administration building to pick our classes.
After about forty-five minutes, i finally decided on the six classes i would be having.
I decided on Magitech Crafting, Political Knowhows, Military tactics, Magecraft, Physical Combat Education, and Smithing for Amatuers.
I tell the others so and they tell me which classes id be having with them.
Id be having none of them with me in Magitech and Smithing. While id have Lilith, Thia, and Julian with me in Magecraft class, basically learning new spells and maybe even making our own. Everyone will be with me in PCE and Military Tactics class. While finally id only have Julian with me in Political Knowhows class.
Ive always wanted to make things like weapons and armor. Its one of the few things that have stayed consistant with my dreams throughout my life.
Too bad there is no, being stealthy and stabbing the shit out of your enemies or stealing from them, class.
Lilith:"We have five minutes to find our seats for the Opening ceremony, lets go."
We quickly run to the Auditorium building and barely get there with two minutes to spare. We find some seats in the back and wait for the upcoming speech.
About a minute later, the lights dim and a spotlight shines on the stage.
A tall man good looking man with white skin, silver hair, and black eyes comes out from behind the curtains. He is wearing some scaled armor and has a Morningstar on his belt. He smiles and black wings that are smoking with fire appear and flap once, causing smoke to go around the room, completely putting out the lights besides the spotlight.
Lucifer:"Good afternoon children. My name is Lucifer Morningstar and i will be your principle for the duration of your stay here at the Academy. First in, I will be laying down some ground rules, trust me theyre necessary."
Everyone starts mumbling to themselves at the predatory gleam in the principles eyes.
Lucifer:"First rule, no killing. You can badly injure or cripple someone you hate, but any killing, and youre out of the academy. The victims family will have free reign on your punishment, and if they have no family or sponsor, i will decide on your punishment."He then leans foreward looking what seems to be all of us in the eyes and says,"You dont want me deciding your punishment. Rule two, you have no political power here. I dont give a fuck who your parents or sponsors are, they have no power here, this is MY academy. So get that shit out of your heads that youre better than someone else just because youre royalty. There will be no punishment to the offender because you get put in place by the person that you thought you were better than. Rule three, treat others with respect, me and your teachers especially. This rule is for your safety, you dont know if the person you are disrespecting can beat your ass to a pulp."
I like these rules.
Lucifer:"Finally, have fun and learn. This is a school, schools are for making friends and learning usefull skills. I dont want to hear that any of your are wasting this chance you have been given. Now i hope you all enjoy your stay. Tomorrow, you will be having your first classes." With that, the smoke that is around the room, pulls inward towards Lucifer bringing the lights back on, and he disapears when the smoke finally clears up.
I then hear his voice next to my ear and he says,
Lucifer:"Meet me in my office in the Tower, i have the answers you seek."
Great, im gonna be meeting with the devil himself, next thing you know, i'll be making deals on his behalf.
Lucifer:'If you want to. Ill reward you properly as well.'
Great, the longer i go on, the more i think Attons Mind Wall is useless.
Lilith:"Its not useless Dorian, to even talk in your mind takes a lot of my focus. Lucifer is just stronger than the Mind wall."
Thanks for the reassurance.
