Chapter 3:

"Teacher, I'm taking a day off!" Grisia yelled out. Pope choked over his tea.

"Hey! You can't freely take a day off just because you hate your new uniform!" Pope protested, putting down his cup of tea and glares at Grisia sternly.

"No, I'm not!" Grisia retorted as combed his hair down to his chest. "I'm gonna looking for Big sister. I've never met her since we got into the Kingdom of Forgotten Sound" Grisia continued with a sad tone.

Pope's expression goes calm and he raises an eyebrow, "Again? You already search for your Big sister countless times. Are you sure she's still within the Kingdom of Forgotten Sound?" Pope questioned.

"Of course she is!" Grisia snapped at him, Pope mentally reprimand himself on how he sounded like accussing that they're leaving Grisia all alone.

"Right, I'm so sorry child." Pope apologized, he then stood up from his chair and took his scepter.

"I'll go with you" Pope stated. Grisia stopped abruptly.

"Eh? You don't have to. Teacher- er I mean Sir Sun Knight said he'll accompany me along with Roland" Grisia informed. Pope's eyes twitched, 'exactly, whose student are you? Damn that Sun...!'

"You're busy after all, you shouldn't bother." Grisia smiled sincerely then run out of the study.

"Wait, Gri-"

"Your holiness Pope, may you look at this report?" a voice spoke up as soon as it entered.

'damn... I'm indeed busy.'

[[Time skip]]

"How was your Big sister looked like again?" Neo asked blandly while leaning lazily on a tree stump.

"She's beautiful, she had a really pale flawless skin, tall and slender figure. She'll stuck out among the crowds" Grisia explained as he playing mindlessly with his lollipop, Roland is beside him looking serious as ever while roasting a deer. They're currently in the forest's clearings, after an unsuccessful search in the city.

"*Whistles* she's a real beauty then..." Neo smirked elegantly. While the two boys under his care (well, Grisia isn't but, who cares?) are oblivious about his malicious intent.

"Teacher, here." Roland said as he gestured to the fully cooked roasted deer that Neo hunted before... Or more like a deer that had a really unfortunate fate to cross a path with Neo.

"Ah~ bliss." Neo exclaimed as he wo-ehem! Eat the deer's meat elegantly, as Roland seems experienced enough to divide the deer's meat into two extra little pieces for him and Grisia before his teacher took the rest of the deer. They are peacefully eating occasionally exchange some dialogues in the boys' case.

"Who's there!?" Neo shouted out suddenly as his instinct is telling him there's a threat somewhere, he pulled out the Divine Sun Sword and direct it at the direction his instinct screams to. Roland already took a stance and ready to draw his sword instinctively bringing Grisia behind him.

"Wait!" Grisia shouted out as the ones that come to the clearings are familiar to him. A pair of girls: a woman in her twenties and a little girl.

"Big sister! Little sister!" Grisia exlaimed in happiness, when he wants to ran up to them Neo stopped him with a stern expression.

"Teacher Neo?"

"Grisia don't be so naive. You're the Pope in training now don't you? You should be able to see it right? The two of them is covered by dark elements even I, who don't have any skill to feel it, could feel it. Moreover, They're corpses!" Neo stated loudly and fiercely. He might be couldn't feel the element but years experience he knows how to differentiate a corpse and a living creature, he's never wrong in this aspect.

Upon hearing his teacher's statement Roland instantly drew his sword, he narrowed his eyes in concentration. Grisia looked relucant but still took a step back because the dark element is indeed very dense. The little girl narrowed her eyes dangerously.

"The benevolent Sun Knight of the Church of the God of Light. Why did you keep my Child away from me?" she hissed dangerously.

Neo smirked arrogantly, "Child? A corpse can't have a child." He retorted calmly. Then continued "Grisia, you're adopted by this?" Neo asked, not taking his eyes off of the two corpses.

"Y-yeah..." Grisia replied softly.

"Well, too bad. Because now you're my child and no one can say otherwise!" Neo declared and with a speed that normal people couldn't see he's already in front of the two corpses and swung his sword down. The older woman moved to protect the little girl, taking all the blow to herself. A really ear-piercing screech filled the clearings. Grisia is stunned in shock.

"How dare you! Give Grisia back to me!" the girl screamed furiously.

"No way!" Neo shouted. Now, the older-looking corpse has already reduced to ash. The little girl growled and gathered a large sum of dark elements.

"I'll take him by force then" she snarled coldly as she summons dozens or maybe hundred undeads creatures to the clearings.

"Can't fight with quality you fight with quantity huh?" Neo growled in annoyance as he bashed every undeads in 3 meters radius of him. An undead lurched forward to grab Grisia only to be slashed immadiately without any formality, Roland stood before Grisia, sword in hand.

"Grisia is my brother! I won't let any rotten corpse touch him by any means!" Roland roared furiously as slashed yet another foolish undead that came to their way.

"Well said! I expect no less from my other child!" Neo stated proudly as he fought his way through sea of undeads. Grisia snapped out of his shock state and with a sloppy movement he gathered holy lights and cast Light Shield to Roland and Neo, making them more safe. But, before he could cast another spell a really strong undead lurched forward and swings its sword to Roland who parried it but no match for it's strength and got thrown back several meters.

The light shield crashed to protect the future Sun Knight.

"Roland!" both Grisia and Neo shouted. Neo take a glance at the undead who attacked Roland and widened his eyes in shock.

"A Death Knight!?" Neo exclaimed incredulously, it's no doubt a Death Knight alright. It's eyes spitting black flames, that exactly Advanced Undeads encyclopedia descript it. The death knight lurched forward yet again most likely to kill Roland until Neo stepped up and parried his attack.

"Don't touch my child!" Neo roared as he push the death knight away and fight with it. But he didn't notice Grisia is vulnerable as he's too focusing to send the death knight back to death.

"Grisia, you're mine. Come to me." the little girl said with a surprisingly soft, warm and motherly tone.

"Aaaaaah!" Grisia screamed fearfully. Neo instantly kick his opponent away and turned to Grisia who is curling up and cornered to a tree stump with another death knight trying to hold him.

'two death knights!?' Neo thought incredulously, then gritted his teeth. 'one has injured Roland and now another one is trying to take Grisia? Let alone two, I'll kill a hundred!' he thought furiously. When Neo intended to run and help Grisia with Roland in his hold, (he didn't want to make the same mistake), the Death knight he just fought got in his way.

'shit!...'

While on Grisia's side, he screamed again as the Death Knight took a hold of his wrist. He's too panicked to even think about using his Holy element let alone gather it, moreover this place is full of dark elements making it kinda difficult to gather it.

"Teacher!" He cried out.

"Grisia" Neo shouted frantically

Then suddenly a full blast of holy light shooted and engulfed the death knight making it screeching in agony and let go of Grisia's wrist. With his wrist finally free Grisia fainted in the spot.

END! I got author block! Just kidding hehehe. I already have another chapter in working ehehe (Mai: she's high on sugar. | Lumina: *gasp* oh my god! *crying relentlessly* | Darrie: you're acting as like she's dying! Stop it!)

*grinning maniacally* ehehehe. (Muse: you looks like a psycho) ehem! Though, I'm still thinking it's too fast, the plot i mean.

How's that? I always think Pope is too busy to help Grisia out to find his big sister, while in the cannon it only took Neo... What? A month or three, to decide help Grisia, he's mostly have a free time it's not like he really uphold his duty aside for killing undeads, talk rubish, and become the church's walking billboard. While Pope is different, he indeed busy with various report (mostly about financial problem though.) and can't help Grisia. AND, Neo isn't Grisia's full-time teacher in this universe so he never really noticed Grisia looking for his adopted sister, hence that's why it took him a year here. Oh! And about their ages here!:

Roland: 11 years old (I still can't find myself to believe he's a month younger than Grisia, just like Luca's fic. They're both orphans, how could they knew their birthdays? So in my own cannon they didn't know their birthday but Grisia still claimed he's older [everyone aside Roland doubt that though. And yes, 'everyone' including me])

Grisia: 11 years old

Neo: 31 years old (but he looks 21 *cough*Magic*cough*)

Pope: ?
