Life 0.
Part 1
"I'm sure we have some of them in the class, so I'll ask it. Who knows what a Magician is?"
Many people raise their hands, but Edelross-sensei only allows Ram to answer.
"They're humans who have mastered magic, which is the result of reconstructing demonic power into sorcery."
"And what's the name of the famous human who achieved that?"
Again, many raise their hands, and Tenshi-kun is the one allowed to speak now.
"It was Merlin Ambrosius."
After that answer, Edelross-sensei starts writing something on the board.
I know that, as a Devil, I'll have to make a pact with a Magician someday, but Ram said that since I have only been a Devil for 23 days, I'll have to wait for that day to come.
Part 2
Ram and her peerage are on home. We're working on our homework about Magicians. We're somewhat hurried to do this, since today at night is our [Rating Game] with Silverage.
"You know, Rito? I'm ranked pretty high by the Magicians. I heard that it was because of my great magic control."
Mint tells me that with a confident voice. Knowing him, those Magicians are right.
"At least you have that; I lost points with them because of my demonic power…"
Ham is somewhat sad while saying that. If I remember correctly, his demonic power is said to be around that of kid Devil. I feel pity for him.
"I learned about Magician when I was on the Church, so this won't be hard."
Both Haruka and María say that, at the same time. They look at each other with caring eyes. Well, since they both worked for the Church as Exorcist, it makes sense for them to be this close.
"I wonder if Magicians would increase my value now that I have these…"
Rina says that while looking at her tokko. Ever since we came back, Oryu has been sending us some Shinto equipment, saying it would be useful for Rina. Apparently, he's doing the same for Subaru and Tsubasa, whom I heard that joined Silverage's peerage as his Rook.
"DEVIL OF GRIGORI TO THE RESCUE! DEVIL OF GRIGORI TO THE RESCUE!"
Oh, that's my Grigori's communication device.
"Do you seriously have that as your ring tone?!"
Mint asks that with sharp voice. Sorry, but that's my famous alias, I can't do anything about it.
"Hello?"
[Rito! This is urgent. Stop doing anything you're doing and bring your group to Israel. I'll explain you later.]
That was… Azazel-sama. If he's calling me while having a serious voice tone, then this is really important.
"Guys… something bad is going on."
