This takes place when the chapters with Alma happened, but Kanda is not gone. Cross isn't gone either, and Allen was jailed but quickly released.
I've also not read the Soul Eater manga so this is after the anime.
Promising Troubles
Chapter 1: The New Noah
+Noah Headquarters, Third Person+
All the Noahs were gathered around the table, waiting for the Millennium Earl so that they could start dinner. The Earl entered while ushering someone along, and spoke, "Everyone, we were all mourning the death of Skinn Bolic, but now we have a new family member! He's the new Noah of Wrath, Evron*, so everyone treat him well!"
"Hai~", all the Noahs answered in unison, and servants went to retrieve food for them. Road beckoned Evron to sit next to her and Tyki, and he complied.
'He looks really different from how Skinn did', both Road and Tyki were surprised at his features. Evron was tall and lean, like Tyki was, and had slightly curly short brown hair. He had on glasses with rectangle-shaped lens, and looked about 20 years old. But what all the Noah (except the Millennium Earl) found the weirdest, was his smile. 'Did, or would, the Noah of Wrath really smile?' But Evron's smile wasn't one of happiness, joy, or excitement. It was a calm, cool, and calculating smile. His observant brown eyes reflected it as well.
At the moment though, Road decided to brush off an uneasy feeling, because she was much more interested in the fact that he had glasses. She grinned evilly at him. The Millennium Earl had glasses too, and he could do all of her homework in 1 hour! 50 pages of math with 50 problems on each page. 15 English worksheets, 10 essays on war histories, and 5 science experiments. Since Evron had glasses, she had confidence that he could do it all; even if he wasn't as quick as the Earl, he would at least get correct answers, and she decided to test it.
"Evron~," Road turned to him. Her homework was in front of her, with Lero crushed under it all so he wouldn't say anything "unnecessary".
"Yes, Road?" his smile was still plastered on his face.
"Do you mind completing some homework for me~?"
"I think you should do it yourself, to earn the experience…besides, if I did it, you wouldn't learn anything would you?"
"But Evron~, there's so much of it, and you'd help me since you're my loving family…right?
"I'm not sure…"
Road looked away and pouted, "I guess you can't do it correctly then, huh? Just like the rest of them…"
"Hey! What's with calling us them? You're a Noah too!" Jasdero and Debitto shouted at Road, but she only stuck her tongue out at the twins and turned back at Evron, pleased with the reaction from her statement.
Evron was not happy with being compared to the others; an anger mark** had appeared on his forehead, and although his smile was still there, it became more menacing.
'These people think I'm an idiot don't they…I can tell Road was waiting for this reaction, but I'm sure she doesn't know what I'm really capable of. I'll show them all that they can't trick me!'
"Well~, if you really want me to do your homework I don't mind too much."
Road beamed mischievously at him, "Thanks a bunch, Evron!"
And so Evron started on her homework, with Tyki looking at him amused, a timer in his hand. 'He wouldn't have just fallen for that, he's got glasses after all!'
After about 5 minutes, the food came, and everyone started to eat, but Evron ignored the meal, continuing with the homework. Another 30 minutes passed, with different courses being served, and Evron slammed the last notebook of math down onto the table.
*THUD*
Everyone looked up from their food, surprised, and Tyki stopped the timer, amazed at the time it read.
"36 minutes and 23 seconds…"
Road was unsure whether she should be happy or disappointed, because she thought 'If he did all of that in such a short time, he couldn't gotten them all right, right?'
She got up from her chair and picked up one of the essays he had written, flipping through the pages quickly. Her face was hidden by it so no one knew what to say, until she put the papers down. She was trembling and looking frightened but managed to gasp out, "I—I don't understand any of it…", and all the Noahs sweat dropped***.
Evron laid his left arm on the table and pushed his glasses up with the middle finger of his right hand smartly. "Would you like me to explain—"
"No no, it's all fine," Tyki cut him off and picked up a math notebook, because he was sure that if Evron tried to explain it to them, not only would it take a long time, no one except the Earl would understand what he was saying.
Tyki also covered his face with the notebook and quickly flipped the pages. Everyone other than the Earl and Evron waited in suspense. The Earl was sure everything was right and Evron looked bored. After putting it down, Tyki looked shaken, like Road, but said, "Th—They look right."
The Noahs (except the Earl and Evron) jumped out of their chairs and jaws hit the floor.
Evron anger mark came back and his smile threatened deaths. "Is it really that surprising that they're right?"
"Of course it is!" Road jumped up and looked at him with admiration evident in her eyes, "You broke it after all!"
Evron calmed down after seeing her eyes, but was now confused. "What? I broke—"
"Master's record!" All eyes turned toward Lulubell, who looked offended. "How dare you—"
"Now now, stop arguing, we're all family after all." Everyone became silent as the Earl spoke, "Evron's quite different from Skinn was because everyone is different. He's rather smart, smarter than me, too, but that doesn't mean everyone can start arguing. Now then, sit down and eat dessert, Evron had already eaten before coming here."
The family gave a nod before sitting down again. The akuma servants placed a bowl of vanilla ice cream in front of everyone excluding Evron, who received a bucket of about 50 sugar cubes.
"What is this?" Evron's shouting stopped the akuma.
"Is it not to your liking master?"
"No it's not." Evron's smile was wiped off his face for the first time.
"Very well, I shall self-destruct and another shall take my place." And it did as it said, but Evron told the next servant to only bring him water.
"Don't you like sweets?" Road's look of admiration was still in her eyes.
"No I despise them, reminds me too much of my idiotic older brother who died by the hands of an exorcist."
Most of the Noahs' eyes grew wide at this statement. "It can't be…," Tyki started.
"SKINN?" They shouted in realization of who Evron was speaking of. Evron only gave a short nod, he was actually sadder about Skinn's death than most were, and they noticed.
"So…those exorcists sure make it hard to take over the world don't they." The Earl had changed the topic for Evron.
Hearing this, Evron's head snapped towards the Earl, with a smile on his lips again, but this time it was cruel.
"About that…" Evron waited until he had everyone's attention and he spoke again, "I actually have a plan against them. Since this world is so hard to capture, for now, why don't we try taking over a different world. Even if they send exorcists over there, they won't have enough over here. We can persuade others to join us too. There's one such place—they have witches, and kishins too, which are apparently evil souls. So…let's try invading Soul Eater's world."
END~
*I chose Evron because apparently his name meant "overflowing anger", but that's his human name. His Noah name is Jarogniew which apparently means "new anger" or "spring anger".
**/***Anime style, will be the first and last time I say it.
For someone that somewhat resembles Evron, try searching up Okamura Yukio, with the features I described and then Noah like.
In any case, thank you for reading.
