Thank you for all your support. I never thought this story would be that popular.
I don't own Familiar of zero or Highschool DXD.
"Speech"
"thought"
My point of view.
"I'm afraid that will have to wait." A woman coming from behind said. I turned around to see a young woman with green hair in her early 20s approaching us.
"Um, who are you?" I asked her kindly. I haven't seen her around before and she doesn't look like a student or a servant.
"I am Miss Longueville, secretary of old Osmond. He would like to see you in his office, and he sent me to pick you two up." She said after she bowed.
"Alright, let's go." I said as she nodded before turning around to go into a tower. I barely noticed that she had a lot of power in her because she did an excellent job of hiding it. I will need to keep an eye on her.
We walked into a long, winding hallway and then approached a set of spiral staircases. I noticed that Louise seemed to be nervous the entire time we were walking for some strange reason. We walked to the top and at the end of the hall way, there was a room which the secretary opened. Inside there are various objects inside, but the thing I noticed right off the bat is the old man sitting behind a desk which is right in front of a large window.
"And I thought Brimir looks like Merlin." I thought as I walked into the room. This guy looks like an exact replica of Merlin. Longueville walked in front of me and Louise then stood on my right side.
"Old Osmond. I have brought the 2 here." Longueville said in front of us.
"Ah yes, thank you Miss Longueville. I gather you know why you are here." Osmond said as Longueville moved out of the way.
"You are here to negotiate with me as summoning a noble will bring lots of problems upon your academy. Is that correct?" I said as his jaw dropped.
"Yes, that is correct. How did you know?" He said dumbfounded as I just grinned.
"Just a lucky guess I suppose." I deadpanned.
"So, aren't you a little bit too young to be a Marquis?" He asked me.
"That is simply my family's ranking. My family is one of the highest-ranking families in Hell." I said simply. It is true as Shax is ranked number 8 out of all the remaining pillars that survived the Great War. I could feel everyone become extremely nervous at this. They are probably worried about the consequences of summoning me, given who I am.
"Umm, , where is this Hell place you are talking about?" Osmond said as he opened his drawer and pulled out a map. Halkeginia is radically different that Earth in terms of its geography, and it definitely is much more primitive technology wise.
"Hell isn't on here."
"Are you from beyond the desert of Rub Al' khali?" Osmond said with a sigh as he put his scroll map away.
"No, I am not from this world." I said, getting gasps from Osmond, Longueville, and Louise.
"What do you mean?" Osmond said confused.
"I mean I am actually not from this world. The names of your countries are radically different than mine and there are 2 moons here. Back on my world, there is only 1." I said as Osmond looked at me like I was a 2 headed snake.
"I-I find that a little hard to believe." He said skeptically.
"It is the truth. It is also your choice to believe it or not." I said as I shrugged my shoulders.
"O-okay then. Let's get down to business. You're Miss Valliere's familiar now, and you have a duty to protect her. We have never had a case of this happening and we will do anything to make this up to you." Osmond said sympathetically as he looked at Louise who was on the verge of having a break down.
"Please forgive me who everything I did and said to you yesterday." Louise said in a panicked voice.
"No problem. I will stay with her but I do require some provisions."I said to Osmond, getting him to raise his eyebrows at this.
"What do you require?" Osmond said.
"I require my own room in this place and that room must be next to Louise's room. I need an actual bed to sleep on." I said to Louise as I glared at her.
"Understood, we have an empty room directly across from Louise's room. We will also furnish this room at our expense. Anything else?" Osmond said as he took out a key from his desk and gave it to Longueville.
"I would like to be enrolled here. I want to see what and how you people learn." I said to him.
"It shall be done." He said as I nodded.
"Good. I guess that is it for now." I said as he sighed.
"Thank you for your patience and understand . My secretary will show you to your new room. Again, I am terribly sorry that this has happened." Osmond said as me, Louise, and Longueville started walking towards the door.
"No problem. These things happen for a reason I suppose. Oh one more thing." I said as I was about to leave the room.
"What is it, ?"
"Does the word Devil mean anything to you?" I said, not bothering to turn to face him.
"No, should it?"
"No just wondering." I said as I left the room and followed Longueville. We walked out of this tower and past Vestri Court, getting a few stares as we made our way to the tower where my new room is. We went up the stairs and stopped in front of Louise's room. On the right side is Louise's room, and on the left side is my new room.
"Here is the key to your new room." Longueville said as she handed the key to me before leaving.
"Rofocal, I…" Louise said before I cut her off.
"Louise, go find the servant Siesta. I need to talk to you and I need someone to make the tea. Come back here in 20 minutes with her." I said as I opened the door to my room before slamming the door right in Louise's face.
I looked around my new room and saw that it is barely furnished. There is a window on one wall that lets sun in but no curtains. There is a basic bed that I can deal with, and a small table a few inches away from it. I emptied out my pockets and put my Iphone, Skullcandy headphones, and my 15 Evil Pieces on the table. Thank the Satans that those pants were so baggy, otherwise I probably wouldn't have been able to carry all out them. I then picked up my Iphone 5 off the table before lying on my new bed.
"Might as well kill some time." I said as I found the app that says Temple Run 2, and I started playing that for 15 minutes before I heard a knock on my door.
"Rofocal, I brought the servant here." Louise said as she knocked on my door.
"I'm coming." I said as I put down my Iphone before going to the door. There was Siesta and Louise standing right outside, and Siesta was holding the tea on a tray for us. I invited them in and I pulled a chair as it was going to be a long discussion.
"Here you go Sir Rofocal. Thank you for saving me." Siesta said kindly as she gave me the tea.
"No problem Siesta, and please just call me Rofocal." I said.
"But y-you're a noble. I can't call you…" She started before I interrupted.
"Please. Just Rofocal." I said. I really don't care for the titles and all that stuff. I am just Rofocal Shax and I allow everyone to call me by my first name, whether it is out on the streets of Lilith or Shax Castle.
"So what did you want to talk about Rofocal?" Louise said as she sat on the bed.
"You can sit down too Siesta." I said as I gestured for her to sit down. She looked at me funny for a second, but then she sat down right next to Louise.
"Okay, what I am going to tell you must stay inside this room. Do you both agree not to tell anyone?" I said seriously.
They both nodded and then I began with the biggest piece of the story.
"I am a High-class Devil." I said as I stood up. They simply stared at me with blank faces and I assume they want to know more.
"What is a Devil?" Siesta asked.
"This." I said as I took off my shirt as taking out my wings would rip this shirt, and I quite like this shirt. I took out my Devil wings, getting gasps from them.
"Now, that is pretty much the only physical difference between us. As you just saw, I am not human." I said to them as they started to pick up their jaws from the floor.
"Does the word Angel mean anything to you?" I asked as I retracted my wings. If they knew what it meant, that would make explaining the history of Devils a lot easier.
"Yes. They are beings created by Brimir that help enforce his will from above." Louise said after recovering from her shock at the sight of my Devil wings.
"Okay, so the meaning is pretty much the same. So I need to tell you the history of me and my kind." I said before explaining the history of Devils. I told them about the beginning with the fall of Lucifer with 1/3 of the Angels from Heaven, skimmed upon the Great War, and finally ended with the civil war between the Old Satan Faction and the Anti-Satan Faction. They simply listened in shock and kept quiet when I told them of the story.
"W-why are you telling us this?" Siesta asked.
"To tell you the basic background of Devils. Now I will tell you of our powers and abilities." I said before going on about the powers various clans have. I told them about the Phenex, Bael, Sitri, Gremory, and finally and my own personal powers. I told them that I am an expert in time manipulation, water manipulation, and teleportation, which surprised them as they said teleportation is impossible. I told them that we could master all types of Devil magic, what Evil Pieces are, and that we could have familiars.
"You have a familiar!" Louise shouted.
"Calm down and yes." I said as I pulled my head back from the shocked Louise.
"Seriously, she needs to go into opera or something." I thought.
"Would you like to meet him?" I said as they looked at me with stunned faces. They didn't say anything so I took their stunned silence as a yes. I held out my right hand and a magic circle with my family's symbol of a triangle with a small infinity sign in the middle appeared. A small sea serpent head appeared, followed by another one. This is my familiar, Orm, a two headed sea serpent. Its entire body then came out of the magic circle, and its length of well over 6 feet frightened Louise and Sieta.
"Meet Orm, twin-headed sea serpent of the North Sea." I said as the sea serpent wrapped itself around my right leg.
"Eww, snake! Get it out of here!" Louise screamed as she went to the edge of my bed.
"Calm down. See you later, Orm." I said as I patted both heads before calling a circle to take it back.
"Okay, that is all I have to say for now." I said as they came closer to me, having moved to the edge of the bed when they saw Orm. Orm isn't that scary is he? They both nodded before Siesta opened the door and let Louise go first before exiting. It was getting dark around now, so I asked Louise to go get me something from the mess hall as she left her, and she agreed that she would. I played on my Iphone before looking at the percentage I had left which was 44%.
"Need to find some way to recharge." I said to myself as I heard a knock on my door. I opened it to see Siesta holding a tray of food with a nervous look on my face.
"M-miss Louise asked me to bring y-you this food." Siesta stuttered out.
"Siesta, I'm not going to hurt you. Just because I am a Devil doesn't me I am an evil being. I saved you once didn't I? I would do it again as you are the first and only person to have shown me kindness here." I said as I put my hand on her cheek. She blushed and then went into my room before putting the food down on the table.
"Thank you Rofocal." She said as she curtsied before leaving my room. I then looked at my food before eating pulling a chair over to eat at the table. The food was quite delicious and since there was nothing else to do, I took off my shirt and pants and put them on the chair before going to the bed. I set my alarm to 5:30 am as I need to wake up Louise for class. I then lay on my bed, staring at the ceiling, and wondering what I got myself into before falling asleep.
"No one man should have all that power. The clock's ticking I just count the hours, stop trip…." My Iphone alarm sang as I pushed the button to stop it. It worked fine and woke me up at 5:30, right on time to see the sun rise above the horizon. I got up and started doing some basic stretches to help wake my body up. I opened the door to see a school uniform, neatly folded and with the message, for you Rofocal, from Siesta.
"I must thank Siesta for that." I said to myself as I picked up the clothes that smelled like fresh flowers. I put the clothes on and they were a perfect fit. I grabbed my Iphone and headphones, then teleported into Louise's room as I didn't have the key to her room and didn't want to make a scene to wake her up.
"Wake up." I said as I poked her in the stomach. She woke up instantly, but this reaction was far more pleasant than yesterday's reaction.
"Good morning, Rofocal." Louise said as she got out of bed.
"I assume you can dress yourself." I said to her as I turned around and left her room. I then took out my phone, but noticed that it only had 34% left. I made a note to myself to find some way to charge it before it became dead. Worst case scenario, I will have to charge it myself with an elemental lightning spell.
Louise came out 2 minutes later, and we walked down to the mess hall for breakfast. On our way there, we kept hearing whispers about me and my position as a Marquis. Some were whispering that I was the Marquis of a far away land, and about how much trouble Louise was in for summoning a noble. I ignored it, and we soon went inside the giant mess hall. There were rows upon rows of tables and hundreds of students sitting at the tables. I sat down next to Louise, not really caring about the looks I was getting from others inside the room, and then looked down at the food. It looked delicious and I was about to eat when everyone suddenly started praying. They were praying to Brimir about this humble meal, which I supposed rolled my eyes at. There was enough food here to feed an army for days, and I am not exaggerating that. Out of respect, and not wanting to start trouble, I simply kept quiet and waited for them to stop praying before I started eating.
The breakfast was delicious, but Louise and I ignored each other and didn't say a word to each other until we finished breakfast. We then walked into her classroom, and I took a seat next to her, and waited for a teacher. I couldn't help but notice the redhead girl from earlier and a blue haired girl staring at me from their seats, but I simply ignored it and went back to playing minesweeper on my Iphone. I waited for 5 minutes before the balding teacher from the summoning came in.
"Class we have a new student here. Louise's familiar, Marquis Rofocal Shax, will be staying her until further notice." He said as the class kept silent.
Class was quite boring to be honest as most of the information there was useless and false due to modern science. However, this teacher, whose name was Colbert as I found out, put forth what appeared to be a primitive engine, which amused me. The rest of the day was more of the same, with teachers spouted out useless information and I became tired and slept through a female teacher, Ms. Chevreuse's class. I was woken up by Louise with an explosion and I had to help Louise clean the room. After we finished, it was time for dinner, and we made our way to the mess hall. Dinner was even more grand than breakfast or lunch, and I was absolutely full by the time it was done.
"Louise, go on first. I will meet you in your room to discuss something." I said to her as she nodded. I used this time to go explore various parts of the castle. The castle seemed quite interesting but there was something bugging me. I had a feeling that I was being followed, but when I turned around, there was no one there.
"Hmmm, must be paranoid for some reason." I thought as I stared up at the night sky.
I started walking in Vestri Court, before coming across an empty spot. I put my Iphone on the cold grass, and pointed my right hand at it. I used an electricity spell and shot it at my Iphone while carefully controlling the amount of current as I didn't want to overload my phone and have it explode. I kept the electricity steady for about 5 minutes before stopping and observing my Iphone. 100% was on the display and I simply smiled at this. I picked up my Iphone and started walking to the tower where Louise and my rooms were.
I walked up the staircase and noticed a flaming salamander standing in the middle of the hallway. It was the salamander of the Kirche girl if I remember correctly. We had a starting contest for a minute before it decided to come forward. It bit my pants and started to drag me somewhere. It was remarkably strong but I managed to hold my ground before deciding to teleport onto its back. It was surprised at my teleportation and at the extra weight it had to carry.
"You want me to go somewhere?" I asked, which got a nod from the salamander. The salamander took me into a dark room which normal humans might not have been able to see into but as Devils are creatures of the night, I could see perfectly fine. I saw Kirche in a slutty but seductive outfit, but I didn't really care as Devil girls are much better looking than humans.
"Oh welcome Rofocal." Kirche said in a slutty voice as she approached me as I got off the salamander.
"Hello, ." I said simply.
"Please, call me Kirche the Feverent. Like a touch, I'm easy to turn off." She said as I rolled my eyes.
"So why did you send your salamander after me?"
"Don't you get it? I'm in love with you. The way you defeated Guiche, all your power, it is fantastic! Seeing you transformed me into Kirche the Ardent." She said as she came closer to me.
"Kirche!" A male voice from the window said.
"Oh, hey. Can we please change our time to 2 hours from now?" She said to the man at the window.
"What? No I…" He started before Kirche blasted him with a fireball.
"Now where were we?" Kirche said as she leaned in to kiss me.
"Kirche! Who is that?" Another male voice said before being blasted by a fireball.
"The night is short. Let's kiss already…." She started before being interrupted by 3 voices at the window.
"Kirche!" The 3 male voices shouted in unison before being blasted by her salamander Flame. By now, I could see what kind of girl she was.
"Kirche. I need to leave." I said as I turned my back on her.
"But why? Can't you see I love you?" She said as she pleaded from behind me.
"Look deep inside you first. You need to respect yourself before you can expect others to do the same. Once you find that, your true love will appear." I said as I opened the door and left. I walked a few doors down to Louise's room before knocking on the door.
"Come on in." Louise said in an oddly nice voice.
We sat down on her bed before talking.
"Sorry I was late. Kirche wanted me to go into her room." I said as Louise's face twisted with annoyance.
"Don't worry, nothing happened." I said, assuring her.
"That's good. She thinks she can get everyone with those oversized boobs." Louise said angrily.
"She most definitely could, but can we get back on topic?"
"What is it?" She asked.
"Can we go to a city? I need to buy some new clothes." I said. I really did need clothes as the only ones I had were the school uniform and the clothes that I was wearing on Earth.
"Good idea! Might as well buy a sword too." She said excitedly.
"Umm, Louise, my skills are sufficient enough to protect us." I said truthfully. I was never good with swords to begin with and I never saw a reason to carry them on me.
"Still! A master must properly equip her familiar!" She said as she raised a finger up. I sweat dropped at this, but I ignored it for now.
"So when can we go?"
"Tomorrow. Tomorrow is the Day of Void so there are no classes."
"Okay then. Should I wake you up normal time?" I asked as I got up off the bed and started walking to the door.
"Wake me up later than usual." She said as she got up to change into her night clothes.
"Okay then. Goodnight Louise." I said as I opened the door to leave. I changed the alarm on my Iphone to 10:30 am right outside the door, just so I wouldn't forget later. I walked to my room across the hallway and opened it with the key Longueville gave me. I stripped down to my underwear after putting my Iphone and headphones on the table. I then looked out the window for a moment, admiring the 2 moons and the countless stars in the night sky, before going on the bed to sleep.
No one man should have all that power. The clock's ticking I just count the hours, stop trip…." My Iphone blared out as I pushed the button to stop it. The Iphone display read 10:30am, and it had 92 percent battery left. I dressed in my Earth clothes before teleporting into Louise's room.
"Wake up." I said as I poked her forehead. Her reaction was the same as yesterday, and I am enjoying her transformation from the first day to today. She was a lot nicer, but she still had anger issues that I had to deal with.
"Huh? Why did you wake me up today?" She said as she rubbed her eyes.
"Today is the Day of Void. You said you would take me shopping for clothes and a sword today." I slowly explained to her.
"Oh okay. Give me 5 minutes to get dressed." She said as I nodded and walked out of the room. She came out wearing her regular school uniform and we went to the mess hall to get something to eat before leaving to the stables for some reason. Louise went ahead as I had to go to the bathroom, which was just an outhouse, and when I came back, she was leading a horse out.
"What are you doing?" I asked.
"I am taking a horse out so we can ride on it to town." She said.
"That won't be necessary." I said as I put my hand out.
"Then how do you suggest we get to town?" Louise replied in an annoyed tone of voice.
"I'll fly us there." I simply replied.
"You can fly?" Louise asked dumbfounded.
"You thought those wings were for show?" I asked with an incredulous look on my face.
"Okay then, just don't drop me." She said as she led the horse back into the stable. We walked to the outside of the school where no one could see us before I let my wings come out. I grabbed Louise bridal style and we took off in the direction Louise had said.
On the entire way there, I couldn't help shake the feeling I was being followed, but that was the least of my concerns as Louise's screaming might cause me to go deaf. In the distance I saw a small town, and I landed on the forest outside of the town as I needed to retract my wings. The whole trip had taken less than 10 minutes. Louise was a bit shaken up but she managed to get it together as we started walking out of the forest.
"Louise, this is what you call a city? It is so small." I replied as we walked out of the forest.
"Yes, this is our great city." Louise replied as she gritted her teeth.
"How many people does it have?" I asked as we started walking on a path into the city.
"200,000." She replied haughtily.
"Then it is a large town then. Cities have millions of people in them." I lazily said as she stopped due to shock.
"Millions of people? How can you fit that many people into 1 place?" She asked after recovering from her shock.
"Build tall and big. Many of our buildings have 50 floors or more." I replied.
"Then, how do you feed so many people?" Louise asked. As a noble, I assume she will own land later in life, and she needs to manage the people on it. Her head is probably spinning from how to feed so many people.
"Only a select few humans on my planet have magic, so the rest of them need build tools. They use the tools to make better tools for their own purposes. We use tools to water fields, not water mages."
"I think I understand. The world you come from must be a strange place." Louise said.
"It is. One more thing before go into town." I said as I turned to her.
"What is it?"
"Let me hold your money. You are more likely to be pick pocketed than me." I said as she grumbled before handing over her coin purse. I put it in my right pants pocket before we walked into town. I saw a place in the commoner section that said weapons and I bugged Louise to go inside.
"Good day my lady." The elderly man behind the counter said. The guy was probably the owner of this small shop, but he looks like a shyster from what I could tell.
"Hello. I would like a sword for my servant." She exclaimed proudly before pointing to me.
"Interesting. More nobles are arming their servants these days. What type of sword would you like?"
"I don't really know swords. Get me a reasonable one." Louise said as a grin appeared on the guy's face.
"I'll be right back with a fine piece that I think you will like." He said before going to the back. We heard some noise from the back and he was back with a long shiny sword in less than 2 minutes.
"This is a sword created by alchemist Shupei! This will cut through anything like butter." He exclaimed proudly.
"May I examine it?" I said as he nodded before handing me the sword. The sword was surprisingly heavy for its size, and I felt the material was gold, which will break in battle.
"I'm sorry, this sword will not do." I said as Louise and the man raised their eyebrows in unison.
"Why not?" They both shouted at me in unison.
"It is quite flamboyant, making it a target for thieves. Also, gold is quite fragile and I feel this weapon will break in battle. So this sword is quite poor if it indeed is truly your best sword." I said as he glared at me.
"Ha, he got your there! You can't rip him off!" A voice shouted in the room.
"Delfinger, stop talking! You are scaring the customers." The man shouted angrily at a sword in a barrel in the corner of the room.
"A…. talking sword?" I blinked. That's something you don't see every day. I saw that the sword was a moderate length and seemed like it might be a good size for me.
"What is your name kid?" The sword asked me.
"Rofocal Shax."
"Well then, Rofocal, if you are looking for a sword, why not chose me?"
Louise tugged my sleeve and whispered, "You can't seriously be considering buying that piece of junk, are you?"
"Why not? It isn't everyday that I can buy a talking sword." I said excitedly as I grabbed it from the barrel and took a few swings.
"Hmm, the weight is decent, and we can fix the rust. How much for him?" I asked the shopkeeper.
"100 gold ecu. He has been a nuisance to my business anyway." The shopkeeper said as he sighed.
"Ok, you have a deal." I said as I handed Louise the sword so I could take out the coin purse. I took the sword back to give Louise the coin purse as I don't know the money system here, so I don't know how much 100 gold ecu is. Louise paid the man and we left the store with the sword and a scabbard which he threw in for free.
"Derflinger, can you conduct energy into you?" I asked Delfinger as I drew him from the scabbard.
"Yes, why?" He asked as I stopped in my tracks.
I used a simple lightning elemental spell and channeled it threw Delfinger. All the rust vanished, and Derflinger became a well-polished sword.
"Ah… Rofocal, I feel revitalized", Derflinger said, "It's been several millennia since the last time I felt this power."
"W-What happened?!" Louise stuttered on seeing the event transpired.
"I used a lightning spell as this blade is a good conductor of electricity. The electricity removes rust on the spot." I said as I put Derflinger into the scabbard and put the scabbard onto my back.
"O-okay. We should get going to the noble section now." Louise said, still in shock over what just happened.
We continued walking until we came upon the noble section, and the difference was like night and day. To compare the commoner stores to the noble stores was like comparing a shack to the Taj Mahal. The commoner section was 3 times as large as the noble section, but it was much dirtier. Trash lay uncollected on the street, people emptied out their chamberpots onto the street, and rats scurried in plain sight. The noble section was well-lit, clean, and smelled of scented flowers.
We looked around for an hour or 2 before Louise dragged me into a clothing store. The clothes here were definitely fitting of nobles, and Louise picked out various outfits for herself. She bought about 500 gold ecu worth of stuff before leaving the store, and forced me to carry 2 bags of clothes. She then brought me to another clothing store and picked out various outfits before forcing me to try them on. The outfits looked somewhat nice, but they are too outdated for my tastes, so we spent an hour looking before leaving the store, but not before buying 10 pairs of underwear for me. We took our stuff and then went to look for a place to eat. We found an extremely upscale place to eat, and we ate and talked for 45 minutes. I checked my Iphone and it displayed the time which is 5:45 pm.
"Anywhere else you want to go?" She said as we walked out of the restaurant after paying.
"Yes. I would like to go to a tailor. I would like to get some custom made clothes." I said to Louise who simply nodded before turning to walk down a street, and I followed her. We came upon a small store and we went into it.
"Ah, Miss Valliere. Welcome." The old woman said behind the counter. The owner seemed to be on very familiar terms with Louise. I guess with her penchant for blowing things up with her magic she would need to get her outfits replaced often. I tried to describe what I wanted made, but she was confused, so she took out a few scrolls and asked me to draw what I wanted. I was describing jeans, polo shirts, and hoodies, and I drew them all on separate scrolls. It took some time to draw what it looked like, but I managed to draw them pretty well, and once I showed the drawings, the woman seemed happy to make those. I said that I would like 3 pairs of each item, each in a different color, and she nodded. She said they will be ready by next week and so with that, Louise paid with her money and the lady went to the back to start on the project.
"Anything else?" Louise said as the sun started to set.
"Yes. I would like to go to a shoemaker." I said as we looked around for a shoemaker. We found a store, and went inside.
"Hello there nobles! What can I do for you?" An old man said as we came into the store.
"Yes. I would like to have some shoes made. Can you make these?" I said as I took out my Iphone, getting stares from Louise and the old man. I went to the pictures from my shoe collection, and showed him 5 pair of sneakers, 4 pair of sandals, and a pair of leather dress shoes. The man took careful notes and drawings of each pair of shoes, and said they will be done in a week. I nodded, and made Louise pay the amount the man wanted. The man then handed us a ticket, and then we left the store.
"Rofocal, what was that?" Louise said in a confused voice.
"That is what we call an Iphone." I said as we walked in the well lit noble section.
"Eye fone? What is that?"
"It is a cell phone. Imagine having a relative that you can never talk with due to distance. A cell phone allows you to communicate long distances. For example, pretend you have one and I have one. I place a call to you, and you pick up your phone and we would talk as if we were standing in the same room." I said as I demonstrated how to use a cell phone.
"O-okay then." Louise muttered as we crossed into the dimly lit commoner section.
"Why are we doing this again?" Louise said as she looked around the dimly lit area.
"We need to go to the outskirts again so I can let out my wings without being seen." I said as we approached an alley.
"Owwww." I heard a woman scream from inside the alley.
"Heh, who wants to go first?" A gruff voice said from inside. It sounds like something bad is going to happen and I can't let this happen. I looked into the alley and saw 4 men in their early 20s standing over a scared looking teenage girl.
"No one." I said as I made my presence known. The 4 turned turn to me with scowls on their faces. One of them has a wand, and the other 3 had short swords.
"Beat it." The gruff looking leader said. The leader had shaggy hair and nice clothes on him, but he has a wand so he is a noble.
"Or what? Let you harm an innocent woman? " I said as I dropped the bags.
"Heh, what can you do?" The mage taunted with a sadistic smile as he raised his wand up.
I couldn't help but smile when he did this as I didn't kill anything since I got here. A spear made out of fire was formed by him and then shot out towards me. I created an earth wall to block the fire from hitting me, and when I raised it back down, all of them were terrified. The girl ran away when my presence became known.
"Y-you're a noble." One of them said fearfully.
"Yeah. And you've picked the wrong person to attack. Louise, you might want to look away." I said as I created an ice spear and chucked it at one of the attackers. The spear went right through the body, and killed him almost instantly. The leader was shocked, but then sent out the other 2, who came at me with swords. The swords were 6 inches out before they disintegrated into dust due to my time dilation field. This caught the 2 by surprise, allowing me to form ice daggers, which I stuck through both of their hearts. I then looked at the terrified leader, who was firing many fireballs at me.
"Die!" He said after his last salvo. I sighed and simply slowed time down around everyone but me. The fireballs seemed like they were crawling towards me, and I simply sidestepped each one. I walked up to him and took away his wand before putting the time back to normal.
"Take that. Huh?" He said as he noticed his wand is gone and me in front of him. I punched him in the face, which sent him down to the cold hard ground.
"M-my f-father is a m-minister. If you kill me…" he stuttered out before I cut him off.
"You don't deserve the title of nobility." I said as I touched his left arm which disintegrated due to my power to manipulate time. I simply aged his arm to dust and he screamed out when this happened.
"Those who abuse their power don't deserve to live." I said as I looked straight into his fear filled eyes.
"No, please don't…." He begged as I touched his forehead which then disintegrated into dust, killing him in the process. I then turned to Louise who was stunned by what I did.
"You killed them all." She said coldly.
"Yes, I did." I said simply as I picked up the bags and walked towards her.
"You killed them even though they begged." She said in disgust as I reached her.
"I wonder how many of their victims said the same thing before they were killed or violated." I said with disgust in my voice.
"But their…." She said as my patience expired.
"NO! They deserved their death. They would have continued to kill and rape if I didn't stop them. Can you live with yourself knowing that?" I screamed at Louise who avoided eye contact with me.
"You know I am right Louise." I said as I grabbed her hand and led us back to the spot where we landed earlier. I let out my wings and gave Louise the bags to hold while I flew.
"You killed them." She said softly as she started to cry.
"I know, but it gets easier." I calmly said as we flew back to the academy, not saying another word to each other.
