Chapter 49

The white haired boy struggled as the older one took hold of him again. Road aimed her candles at the older.

"After 7000 years, I finally found it," said a Sheryl who suddenly appeared with a smile maniacally.

"This presence..? An innocence compatible...?" said Allen with surprise.

"This person is neither human nor a compatible. This is an independent innocence which solely exists to protect the heart," said Tyki as he finally arrived at the scene. "The Millennium Earl calls it, Apocryphos."

"Glad that you'd drop by, brother," said Sheryl.

"Uncle Tyki!" said Road with excitement.

"So you have a family reunion, Tyki. You never told me," said Alyce sadly looking down. He was too relaxed and acted as if he is no longer a traitor.

"You're that exorcist general!" said Road. while smiling.

"My brother isn't in his Noah form, what did you do? Remove it," said Sheryl creepily.

"Aren't we supposed to... umm fight the Apocryphos?" asked Allen with question while struggling from Road's grasp.

"Yeah, we are," replied Alyce.

"Alyce? You do know that I-" said Tyki trying to explain himself that not everything seen is actually as it is but he was cut off by Alyce that daringly kissed him in front of everyone while in the middle of a battle.

"Yeah, I know. I was just getting back at you," she said while removing the seals. His skin turned back to its dark color, crosses appeared on his forehead and eyes turned back into the color of gold.

He smiled back at her while teasingly licking his lips as if saying it tasted so nice that caused heat to rise in the general's cheeks.

Road laughed at the scenario while Sheryl was shocked. Allen was somehow embarrassed by the whole situation despite not being part of it.

The Apocryphos who was ignored grabbed Allen once more while everyone was distracted. Alyce hurriedly threw one of her daggers while disappearing and only appearing to be behind him and took another strike. Tyki called out to the tease hiding and attacked. The Aporcryphos let go of Allen while making another attack.

No one gave more help to them since the rest were outside dealing with the akuma.

"We are now in a state of greater emergency. Noah have been discovered within the hq. It is currently running toward the east beach with Allen Walker. At 22:00, we will meet up for an emergency meeting. At 22:10, All exorcists will be given a mission with no time limit. Due to the situation, the pope will be issuing an imperial order. It will be delivered to everyone. As of now, we will be freezing Allen Walker's rights as an exorcist. From here on, he shall be classified as a Noah."

"What's going on? We just finished with the akuma and they're saying that? Allen, a Noah?" said Lenalee with worry after hearing it when they entered the order. She stopped on her tracks staring into space.

The rest were also frozen by the news. They were battling the akuma outside and came back to hear such news.

Lenalee's legs gave out. She fell down along with her tears. Kanda supported her saying no words. He didn't even rush from the room to try and search for the Noah. None of them felt like running after Allen. They didn't want him caught if that's going to be the situation. They don't even know why that was happening. Everything just happened to fast for them to absorb at once into their minds.

Lavi didn't react much except for a frown while Cordelia was shocked and horrified by the announcement she heard. She read about it and knew that it wasn't good. He was really kind to her despite the short time and he was her younger brother.

Lilia who did not understand was trying to ask the adults what is happening. They would only give her a sad look and did not further explain.

Alyce was silent on the floor not moving. Tyki stood there by her side silent as well. Everything happened too fast.

The Noah within her brother awakened. The others saw him fighting with the Noah. He ran away for safety.

They didn't label her a traitor with him since that will only make things harder for them to take control of. They will punish her though along with the Noah under her command. They have more authority over her after all if she's still working under them. It will be bad for them if they took care of more than one traitor.

"This isn't right. He's gone again, Tyki. I wasn't able to protect him like I promised."

"The general was with him, right? They didn't see yet but he's gone too. It will be fine."

She just remained silent and didn't speak anymore while the rest were in chaos.
