Chapter 24 - Losses

" we have common enemy Alberto, Leith took as much from me as he took from you. I am seperated from my wife for mere few years. But for you seperation was forever. He took Mirage from you forever" spoke Overlord in calm tone. Alberto glared at Overlord " I know my losses well, Lucifer. I want to know what exactly you want from me and this academy".

Lucifer played with the coffee mug calmly " This academy is refuge to all leftover kids of God's who left them after using mortal woman or man. But many times they use those kids to take powers from them and brutally kill them. You are a refuge to these kids, I admire that. I want your protection and in return I will give my knowledge of dark magic to these kids. If not all it can protect many of them".

Alberto nodded " than let's prepare for tomorrow's assembly. There are few new admission. I just have problem with your elder kid, that girl is a mere mortal. You could have left her in outer world. I will not remove her but I will not protect her". Overlord nodded " I understand" with that he left the principal office to find Callum waiting for him inside his room " this is not house, Callum you can't come to Teacher's housing. How did you find this place when you came here for first time".

Callum gave a toothed grin " it's not a big deal Dad. I have good sense of direction and I heard some girls whispering about some hot new teacher staying at teacher housing. I am pretty sure that's you Dad". Lucifer coughed embarrassed, inside he was thankful his wife was not here to hear this.

" Dad, this place is weird, why are we here and what are these people " asked Callum. Lucifer placed his hand on his head " this is the safest place for us. They have same power as us. There are 6 type of powers Fire, Water, Air, Earth, Light spirit and Dark spirit. Your main strength is Dark spirit and other powers which are suppressed inside you to hide your presence. You will learn to use those powers and along with normal studies that humans do".

Callum nodded, he was slowly getting to know this place and he can't wait for tomorrow's assembly.
