Lucifer and Daemon now sat in the crowd once more. The people around them talked bad about them, but the two just ignored it as they listened to the sudden announcement.
"Ladies and Gentlemen. While that last match wasn't as pleasing as the others, don't get your hopes down just yet. We still have an important announcement to make."
The S ranks stood in the middle. Infinity stood with the microphone in his hand now.
"I wonder what it is.."
The crowd became curious at the sudden announcement. Noticing their curiosity, smirks appeared on all of their faces.
"We will be doing something new this year..."
The crowd got even more curious.
"We will all be taking in 3 students and making them into the next generation of S rank hunters!"
Music and confetti went off. Everyone remained silent, taking in what they heard, until someone cheered out. That started a chain of reactions, enveloping the whole crowd in happiness.
"No way! They will be accepting students?!"
"They never do something like this!"
"A rare opportunity! A rare opportunity!"
Daemon and Lucifer then looked at each other. They stared for a while until they both lost the starring contest and looked away.
"We will personally be choosing our students. No matter if you did poor, or if you did good! Each person will have a chance!"
Daemon already knew where this was going. 'Anyone but the Fire King. Anyone but...' Daemon prayed in his head, forgetting that they come true.
"Silver Ice will choose her students first! Here you go.."
Infinity passed the mic to Sylvia and she coughed slightly. She then turned slightly and faced the middle school student section.
"Lily Suzuki. Hannah Kite. Sarah Winkler. Please come line up behind me."
Spot lights then flashed on the 3 people. The 3 in questions were surprised, but they still managed to get up with clapping sounding out around them.
'Thanks Sylvia..'
Sylvia is the one who taught Lily everything she knows. Lily is a spitting image of Daemons mother. That being said, Sylvia tricked herself into thinking she was teaching a little version of her Master. She obviously knows their different, but she still likes to think it.
'And good job Lily. I can't wait to see your future..'
Being a god gives him...a lot of advantages. From every magic in existence, to power granting. He could do it all. He doesn't however as like he said before, he wants to live a normal life. With that thought process, the only things he uses in his day to day life is telekinesis, teleportation, superhuman senses and a few other things.
He rarely uses his other powers unless for his side job as an information broker, or judgement.
Sylvia then passed the mic back to infinity. He then turned towards us and...
"Daemon Suzuki. Lucifer Star. Acier cloth. Please come down."
Daemon and Lucifer then looked at each other.
"I guess we'll be seeing each other more often, huh?"
Daemon smiled at him.
"Yeah. Fate huh?"
Lucifer smiled and Daemon nodded. 'So he sees it too..' The two then got up and scooted down the aisle. They ignored the frowns they received and soon stood behind infinity.
"Wait. He said someone else right?"
Daemon and Lucifer then looked back and stared.
Acier cloth. Age, 16. Height, 5'7. Weight, 122 lbs. Measurements, B85[E]-W54-H84. Magic, Metal magic. Acier cloth is an average height woman with short, silver hair and deep red eye. Her appearance was that of a tomboy as her clothes even seemed masculine.
"About time you Bastards noticed I was here!"
Her voice was rough as she pointed and screamed at us. She was light skinned, and had pink nails. 'Did sylvia have a daughter or something?' They looked kind of identical in Daemons eyes. Besides the eyes actually.
"So?! Are you not gonna great me?!"
She pulled up her sleeve while walking towards them. Daemon and Lucifer however turned back around and just stared. Acier didn't like this and stared scheming.
The other S ranks called out some people, but stopped as they all turned around towards us.
"There seems to have been a mix up."
Infinity then started pointing at each on of us.
"Meh. We can do teams of 4 right? Not like it effects that many things."
Daemon and a lot of other people became confused at his words. 'What he said...contridicts what he said earlier right?' He made it sound like he wanted to choose a specific person for his team when he said that everyone had a chance.
"Do what you want Infinity. We'll stick to three.."
Infinity was an odd person. Not only does he look like an anime character, his magic is sort of the same. The other S ranks tend to let him do what he wants as there no telling him no.
"Sarah Fye. Please come down."
'Shit. Meat girl?'
Daemon sighed out and looked out the corner of his eye. He then saw the beautiful woman from the supermarket walking down with an confused expression.
"Damn it! Why her?!"
Acier screamed out, causing some to look at her. 'Oh yeah, those two...' Back in middle school, they were friends? It was like Daemon and Sylvia. Sarah teased Acier and Acier acted like she didn't like it.
They still continue to do it to this day.
Sarah soon came down and stood behind Acier. Much to Aciers surprise, she didn't get groped.
"Okay. We have all chosen our disciples. Just because we chose these few, doesn't mean we aren't going to teach you all. We are all of your teachers still.."
They would each be assigned a certain subject and go from their. Apparently, they are good at things that don't involve killing.
"And with that said, we want you all to go to the room you took your written test in. We will be evaluating you and we should have your classes by...well I don't know.."
A lot of people were mad about the fact that they weren't chosen, but they still complied. It was a nice experience to be teached by them anyways.
After the students cleared out, some of us disciples decided to leave as well but we were stopped.
"We will give you a room number to visit starting tomorrow. From there, we will explain things more."
The students were confused but they still complied. They all then cleared up and went to their 'Home rooms'.
"This should be fun Right Lucifer?"
Daemon took the earphones out of his ear, causing Lucifer to look over at him.
"Hm? Ah, yeah. We..get to be together more. That's nice."
"You don't sound too into it though."
Daemon thought that maybe he was just overlooking things.
"Well, it's kind of...embarrassing to say, but...since we won't be in the same classes then we won't see each other until the days over with. It makes me kind of...sad?"
Lucifer forced out a laugh. Daemon didn't know how to respond to that as it was kind of embarrassing to hear. The two then walked back to their testing room in silence.
'Why am I though? Why am I embarrassed from what he said? Maybe it's because I've never got this sort of treatment before.'
It was a new experience for Daemon. An odd, but new one.
The two then sat down and they each put their heads down. After a couple of minutes in silence, they each turned their heads and stared at each other.
"We won't be in school that much anyways as we start our careers this year right?"
After a couple of weeks or even days maybe, they should rarely be at school as they would probably be in guilds and go dungeon hunting across the world.
"Yeah. You..realized it too?"
He sat up slighly while taking his earphones out. He then put his fist up to his cheek and stared at Daemon with a look if interest.
"Yeah. I remember you saying something like that right?"
Lucifer smiled at that. He didn't exactly tell Daemon that, but Daemon inferred it, making him surprised.
"You had me worried Lucifer. I actually felt sort of sad for once."
"Hm? For once? You don't get sad that much?"
"No, not really. I've been told that I never cried as a baby."
"Really? I was told...the opposite."
"Really? You don't look like a crier."
"I used to cry all the time. I stopped though as I realized it wasnt...manly to cry."
"Ohhhh...I see now. Does that also go in hand with the Quiet Prince?"
"It does actually. I...decided to just keep my voice down and lay low, as getting talked about even in the slightest made tears run down my face."
"Wait. Did you just admit to having that sort of title? Haha."
Daemon laughed as Lucifer quickly looked away. 'He..got me..' Lucifer slightly looked back and said...
"Well, it suits me, so I guess. Besides, what's wrong with admitting it?"
"Oh, nothing. Nothing at all.."
Daemon then put his hand out and touched Lucifers wrist. 'This bracelet..'
"Hey. Where did you get this from?"
Daemon played with it as Lucifer only stared at him. 'He just touches me like that? What an odd guy..' Lucifer then shook his head and spoke.
"One day I was throwing my trash out when I found this taped under the lid of my trashcan. I decided to ignore it and when I went inside, I found it lying on my bed."
"Hm? That's strange."
"Yeah, and then I decided to put it on. That was a stupid mistake on my part. Tell me, what do you think happened next?"
"Well..."
It didn't take a genius to figure out what probably happened.
"It never came off?"
"It never came off."
Lucifer sighed while starring at it. The bracket was gold with white lines flowing throughout it. 'Seems that fate really wants to bring us together. Though this is just..'
"Class. Your class ranks have been decided."
Daemon looked over and Lucifer looked over too. They both then noticed that the entire class was starring at them. This caused them to become embarrassed.
"I will say your name and rank. After that, you may proceed to leave campus for today."
Daemon slighly smiled at that. 'Good. We can go home together instead of her arriving before me..' The teacher then proceeded to say names and rank. Most people were between E and D. That was common in 10th grade. 11 grades average would be around C or D. Potentially low B. 12th would be Low B through high B. 9th would be F.
"Lucifer Star. Rank, C."
That shocked everyone in the class. Lucifer then got up, and said..
"Text me your address."
He then put his bookbag on and earphones in and left. 'C huh? He'll be in classes with Juniors..' That what they did when a student of a lower grade gets a high Rank that's not common among the others.
"Daemon Suzuki. Rank, C."
'Hm? C? Why the hell...No, why the hell am I in C?! This..this must be some sort of joke.!'
"Bullshit! There's no way!"
A student hit the desk as he got up. 'Yeah, your right! This is Bs!' Daemon agreed with the boy.
"This decision was made by all the rank S's. If you want to call 'Bullshit' then go speak to them about it."
The teacher scoffed and continued calling out names. Everyone immediately stared at Daemon as he got up and put his bookbag on. 'This...isn't what I wanted. And they all agreed on it too? What the hell.'
Before they came, teachers would still vote together, but students could easily retaliate. But now that it's the S ranks doing them, they can only keep their mouth shut.
'A few days Daemon. It's only a few days. And besides, maybe you could get lucky and have Lucifer in your class..'
And with that Daemon left the classroom with a blank face. He wasn't happy nor sad.
Just..neutral.
