Giliath demands your power stones! Let's try to get over 500!

"Well this is quite awkward, even for me.", A voice of a middle aged man echoed in what appeared to be a rather lively street. A tall and domineering church building could be seen off in the district. But to the left and still on this large street stood a gated building.

A tall figure of a man, who dressed in a martial arts gi carrying a large gourd on his back, could be seen standing on the main street, calmly observing the building off in the distance. In his view was a long path that eventually led to the gated building.

"Hahaha, well isn't that the understatement of the century.", A second voice said, seeming to belong to that of a certain boy who hadn't seemed to age a day since he was last. He did a motion of his hand, and then placed it over his chin. He sported green hair and had a special mark over one of his eyes.

"You're not just saying that because next month is the dawn of the next century here in Zemuria, are you?", The aged man said, squinting his eyes a bit as he looked at the green haired boy.

This man had recently turned twenty-six. He had been traveling around both Calvard and Erebonia, together with a sole disciple, teaching her the ways of a martial arts school, the form of Taito. On top of that he was also teaching the girl how the world worked during their travels.

The duo was last seen in the Eisengard Mountain Range beyond Ymir in the north of Erebonia, only to go through a training course with a local dojo there who taught a different form of martial arts, obe that involved the sword. The Eight Leaves One Blade School.

His disciple was still a young girl sporting lilac colored short hair, who seemed to be around nine to ten years old. When this girl was found in those caves, she was quite young.

This man was of course Zin, and the girl was Sherryl Sky. After training in the mountains, Zin found his fountain of knowledge was reaching its limit in teaching Sherryl.

While he took Master Kafai's words to heart, Zin also knew it wasn't good to push himself beyond his own limits, unless it was a life and death scenario. He knew well that he didn't want a repeat of what happened to the man he used to see as a brother, Walter.

So, Zin decided it was time to stop their journey, but not in a bad way. He currently feels like he has nothing left to teach Sherryl.

In the end, Zin found himself back here in Heimdallr, and in front of the girls' only school, St. Astraia no less. He figured it was time to let Sherryl mingle around with other like-minded girls, hopefully to get a new friend or two and to enjoy school life. Sherryl wasn't against the idea either. She did not want to meet Naoto or her family back in Crossbell yet, despite having a desire to do so. She knew it wasn't time yet.

Though fate seemed to play a bit of a twist for Zin at least. He wasn't expecting there to be another who was of similar intentions for him. On top of that, he wasn't expecting this person beside him to make an appearance after all.

After all, the boy who was beside Zin was one of the inner persons of the shadowy organization, Campanella the Fool. Enforcer No. 0. And after Zin retorted that, a smile crept on Campenella's lips.

"Oh, you found me out.", Campanella retorted nonchalantly as he shrugged his shoulders again. Hearing Campanella say that, Zin could only let out a sigh.

"Still, why exactly are you here? You're not acting on behalf of thos rotten snakes, are you now?", Zin asked in a more serious tone.

"You sure are to wonder about that, aren't you, Zin the Immovable?", Campanella responded back playfully. "But I digress. Unfortunately we are currently not out in any operation here. This is merely what No. XV desires. At least, Renne will have a friend going into this school. I am merely here to see her off.", Campanella responded, doing another motion of his hand.

"This is merely what that girl desires, huh? It is quite insane to think that an Enforcer would want to attend a school like this, but considering her background, perhaps it is a sigh or relief. I do think Renne would become good friends with Sherryl while they attend school here.", Zin said, crossing his arms together.

"Haha, I can agree with you on that part. After all, it hasn't been that long since these two were in those caves.", Campanella said, looking at Zin.

"Yeah...That whole operation was pretty nuts, even though I wasn't particularly part of it until it reached the top brass in Crossbell. It sounds like you had your fair share of fun while destroying those caves.", Zin responded.

"We did, yes. But alas we did not find any captives remaining. Quite a shame really.", Campenalla said, shaking his head.

"Same boat, eh?", Zin responded, wondering how Ouroboros went during the Cult Extermination. He was surprised to learn about Ouroboros also joining in the extermination, but they targeted bases that were not part of the operation the Cassius issued out, so the two never crossed paths.

Still, it was a topic of discussion at least, considering that Zin and Campanella were now standing beside each other, so Zin couldn't help but bring it up. His gaze eventually changed back to the path in front of him.

He saw two girls, one seemingly younger than the other. One sported violet hair while the other sported lilac hair. But they both shared a common appearance, they were wearing a black school uniform with berets on their head, which was none other than St. Astraia's girl uniform. Sherryl's eyes held interest in them seeing Renne before her.

"You really are the girl who was beside Big Brother when we stayed on that big ship, aren't you?", Sherryl said. Since Sherryl was about ten now, she was the older of the two. Renne was still eight.

"Sure am. It seems as though the training adventure you underwent is over now. I didn't think you'd have an interest in joining a school like this. You didn't turn into a muscle brain like that big bear over there, did you?", Renne retired, seeing Sherryl beside her who was now dressed in St. Astraia's school uniform. She puffed her cheeks out a bit.

"Hell no. I have a pretty special physique thanks to those experiments back in the caves. If there is one thing, it helps me stay cute and slender.", Sherryl retorted Renne as she puffed her cheeks a bit.

"Teehee, don't take it too seriously. Still, we haven't seen each other since you came on the Glorious a few years back. And you haven't met Big Brother once?", Renne asked with interest.

"Nope. It's my own resolution that I've reached. Though it is due to meet Big Brother again.", Sherryl said, tilting her head a bit.

"I was able to meet Big Brother back in the castle. He has a new plan going on, and is now in Erebonia as we speak. Perhaps our paths will cross each other eventually.", Renne said, answering Sherryl. Hearing that caused Sherryl's eyes to light up.

"Big Brother's back in Erebonia?", Sherryl asked.

"Sure is. He plans to stop in Legram, but from there, I am not too sure.", Renne said, answering Sherryl.

"Legram, huh? Maybe our paths will cross then...", Sherryl said, turning quiet as they continued to walk toward the gate.

It didn't take the two long before they could see other students who looked at Renne and Sherryl arriving at St. Astraia. In particular, one of the schoolgirl's eyes lit up seeing the two arrive as she clapped her hands together.

"Well well, aren't you two just cute?", One of the schoolgirls said, looking at Renne and Sherryl with interest. Yet the moment this schoolgirl said that, the second schoolgirl let out a sigh.

"Now now, Musse. Don't go scaring our new arrivals before they even have a chance to see this place. I do apologize for Musse's outburst, she just has interest that's all.", The second girl said, welcoming Renne and Sherryl.

"Oh it is no trouble. You must be part of the student council.", Renne said, looking at the long indigo-black haired girl standing before them.

"Indeed I am. On behalf of the student council, I, Elise Schwarzer, welcome you two to our St. Astraia school.", Elise said, welcoming Renne and Sherryl inside with a smile on her face.

It was in the middle of their current curriculum of the year, but Renne and Sherryl received an exception to enroll partway through, with Renne even jumping grades to be in the same class as Sherryl.

Knowing such, Elise was definitely interested, and decided to personally welcome the two into the school.

*

I'm pretty sure Elise isn't president at this time but I could be wrong. So for now, she's just a member of the council.
