Chereads / The Ultimate Deadly Sin / Chapter 9 - Finding the Pieces

Chapter 9 - Finding the Pieces

After everyone had a good rest and regain HP overnight, they now regain conscious and started a new adventure and some continued from their last save point. King did the same thing he do everyday. Wake up, bath, cook, eat and leave and goes to school, same thing as usual.

" What a hot day " King said as he was walking toward the school now. He could now see the always busy front gate and its many students. When he arrive at the school gate, he now expected the students to gossips bad things about him which he guessed right, the students did started to gossip, except not all of them are saying bad stuffs. Some are gossiping how he sent Jake flying in the air yesterday. But of course, bad rumors are still there like the people who says that he cheated or something but being unsure about it because Takagi is clearly there which can tell whether he cheated or not. Some of them are in doubt about him. He expected it of course that people will start another rumors about the fight so he just shrugged it off. He then change to school slippers and went to his classroom. He then again came in the backdoor but this time, his classmates actually see him, they then started a new session of gossiping. He walk normally toward his desk and place his bag on the table.

"Good Morning King!! Someone from his back greeted. It was Diana.

" Good morning Diana" He greeted back.

" Hot day isn't it? " Diana said as she wiped her sweat. King find it quite appealing and stared at her without even thinking.

" Do - Don't stare at me that much. I'm going to melt" Diana said in a cute embarrassed expression.

"So - Sorry." King said as he directed his eyes somewhere. Diana who saw him get embarrassed just laughed at him. King who found out that she was only teasing him just sighed at his easily fooled self. Many people who saw this interaction between them are slightly jealous. Some glared at him like they want to kill him.

On a room..

A man in a suit was sitting on a chair while reading through his paperworks. His hair was silver, he had eye with a red pupils and a huge scar in the left side of his neck. He keeps humming till someone knocked on the door.

"Come in" He said while closing his paperwork. The door opened and a beautiful girl then came in.

" Sorry for the intrusion" She softly said.

"It's fine, Takagi. You're always welcome to come in my office. The silver haired man said. "Come sit down" He said. Takagi then came in and slowly sat on the chair.

"So what can I do for you today Takagi" He said lively.

"I just want to ask some questions to you, Mr.Principal"

" Come on. I got a name." The man said while pouting.

"I prefer calling you Principal Mr.Principal" Takagi said

The silver haired guy twitched his lips a couple times. He then look at Takagi who's smiling at him. The guy sighed and asked.

"Now whatchu wanna ask?" he asked. Takagi then looked at him seriously.

" What do you know about King? " She asked. the man who saw her seriousness made him wonder why she's curious abou King.

"Your actually asking? Can't you just use your Spirit Weapon?" He asked.

"That's the problem. I can't use my spirit weapon's power on him" she said. "To activate my ability, I needed to see my target for my power to use it. If i can't see the one I'm using my powers on, then it won't work. And i know I've had enough closed interaction with him in the past. But no matter how I try, it just won't work." She said. "Do you know anything about him?" She continued asking.

"What makes you think that I know something about him?" the man asked as he stood up and looked at the scenery outside the window.

" Because" She paused for a bit. " I can't use my Powers on you too," she said. The man then looked at her.

" Who knows. It might be just my spirit weapon on active." He said then smiled towards her. The man saw Takagi's dissatisfied face so he decided to tell him just a little bit. He looked at the window again (because that what i always see in anime when they about to be dramatic).

"Just an old acquaintance" the silver haired man said.

" Old acquaintance?" She asked. " How old are you Mr. Principal? " She wondered.

'Dang. I messed up' The man thought. He then quickly turn around and look at her trying to pursue her. "I mean I'm his father old acquaintance. I - I didn't mean I'm King's old acquainta-" He stopped when he saw Takagi smiled at him.

" You know Mr. Principal. Even if I don't use my powers on you, I can tell whether you're lying or not. You're such a bad lier." Takagi said who is looking at the man smiling.

" Am I really that bad of a lier? " the man asked as he caressed the back of his head.

"Yes you are" Takagi said still smiling at him.

"Well I can't tell you anything anyway. He did something to me to fight against your power in the first place. That just explains that he didn't want to reveal who he is. And i respect that and I hope you too." The man said. His answer saddens Takagi. The man who saw this quickly patted her head.

"Dont worry. You'll soon find it out." He said and look at her with a heartwarming smile. They then talked to each for awhile. After for a while, Takagi was about to leave.

"Thanks for having me Mr. Principal" She said as she bowed to the silver haired man.

"Don't worry about it. Glad I could atleast try helping my students." He said as we wave.

"Ohh By the way. Can you call King to go in my office? " The man asked.

" Okay Mr. Principal" She said then bowed again and closed the door. The man then looked at the window again and enjoyed the view.

Just like that. It was lunch already. King was about to leave when Diana invited him to a lunch in the cafeteria again. He wanted to turn her down but he didn't know how. Somebody then came inside the classroom. The busy classroom then became quiet after she came in. She came infront of the classroom and started greeting them.

"Good noon everyone. Sorry to interrupt you guys with your lunch" She said while smiling. Everyone was silent for a moment.

"EHHHHHHHHHHHHH?!?!" Everyone yelled shortly after the pause.

"Ta - Takagi what do you need in our class" A girl in the front row nervously asked. The girl was Shaira, class A's president.

"I just needed someone in this class come with me" She said as she looked toward King. " King, Mr. Principal want your presence at his office. He wanted to talk to you" She said in a serious expression.

" M - Me? " King said as he pointed his finger toward himself.

"Yes. Please don't leave him waiting. That's all everyone, sorry for disturbing you again" She bowed and then left. After she left, King's classmates started gossiping.

" Maybe he did cheated. From the looks of it, Takagi was angry at him. King must've done some cheap trick against her eye. " someone from a group said. (Don't ask me why they gossip loudly, it's just anime logic). Shaira then go towards king.

" So you heard it king. The principal's calling for you. Don't leave him waiting okay? " Shaira said as she smiled.

" O - Okay" King said. 'Dang I never knew there's good people here' he thought.

" Shaira!! Let's go in the cafeteria now!" A girl from a group yelled calling for her.

"Coming! Bye King" Shaira bowed and she ran towards the group while waving at him. King also waved back at her.

"Hmm. A secret admirer maybe?" Diana said as she stood beside King. " Don't broke her heart okay?" She said softly. King twitched his lips after hearing her said that. He then sighed, taken his bag and said goodbye to her and went to the principal office.

He was outside the principal's office now and started knocking.

'What does that guy needed from me' He thought. He then heard someone inside say "come in" so he came inside. He then saw the silver haired man sitting on the chair.

"Good Noon King. How's life?" The silver haired man asked as he was sitting on the chair.

King sighs " What do want"

" Ban "
