Sweet Devil AU Part III
"...how to transform into an angel?..." Alfred's tutor was shocked and mildly confused as to why the young prince was suddenly so interested in this subject. The young prince was known to be uninterested in all things study related, even though his father had already reprimanded him a few times, he will sneak off to who knows where doing who knows what, only to be caught by the royal guards and dragged back home, getting a scolding from his caretaker. He was never interested, so why was he now?
"Yeah! Teach me!" Alfred asked, more like demanded. After Alfred's tutor managed to get over his internal shock, he bend down to face the young prince.
"I'm sorry, young master, but your powers are still too weak for that, that spell is quite a high level one, it would take months, considering your pace, to be able to learn that spell.."He tried reasoning with Alfred. Alfred pouted and puffed up his cheeks knowing he was not going to get what he wanted.
"So if my powers are more powerful then I'll be able to use that spell?" He questioned his tutor, he wanted to be able to see Arthur as soon as possible.
"Yes, of course, if you pay attention in my class, you'll be more powerful than you are in no time." His tutor smiled, hoping that Alfred would take his classes seriously from now on.
"Hmmmm, okay! Thanks, Magnus!" And with that, Alfred was off, leaving the tutor to stand alone in the hallway.
"...An angel huh?...I wonder why would he be so interested in it all off the sudden.." Magnus said to himself, before going in to prepare for tomorrow's lesson.
Since that day, Alfred studied harder than he ever did, his tutors were all shocked and impressed by the fast progress he has been showing, by the end of the month, he was already learning things that he was suppose to learn when was older, he picked up quickly, getting the hang of spells in just a matter of hours, even advanced ones that adults have difficulties with didn't take him more than just a few days. No one question where did he suddenly get this burst of motivation from, they just thought that if he takes things seriously, he really is talented. Everyone was impressed, especially his father, who showed great satisfaction in his son's progress and seriousness in his studies, Alfred didn't even bother sneaking out anymore and he received no complains about Alfred. He was so happy that he allowed Alfred to takes breaks or go to town, something that shocked everyone, especially Alfred, he would be able to play if he wanted to as long as his progress doesn't slow down or come to a dead end. This news seemed to boost Alfred's motivation, and his progress speed up even more.
He continued in strengthening his powers till the day his tutor announced that he could learn how to change into an angel, he was jumping up and down in joy when he heard it.
With his current powers, the spell wasn't tough at all, his tutor told him to imagine an angel's wings and the halo they possessed, his tutor also said something about concentrating his powers on certain spots in his body, but he wasn't listening already, he just pictured Arthur, his beautiful green eyes, his slight bushy eyebrows, and his messy golden hair that Alfred would want to run his hands through to see if they were really as soft as they look, he really did want to see him again, and somehow he managed to use this desire to see Arthur to spark the spell.
He felt himself changing, and soon he heard clapping, he turn to see his tutor applauding him with a smile on his face.
"Congratulations, young master, you did it." His tutor led him to a mirror.
His eyes widen as he notice his jet black had turn into a soft golden colour. his leather wings had become feathered ones, his tail disappeared and his horns were gone, replacing it was a halo that glowed above his head.
"Wow! So this is how I would look! So anyone who sees me now will think that I am an angel?" He turned his head to question his tutor.
"That's right, though I don't see much use for you to learn it, this spell was only used during the war we had with heaven, demon soldiers had to find a way to disguise themselves as they infiltrated heaven." His tutor explained.
"So what happened? Who won?" Alfred asked, getting curious.
"Nobody won, both sides' powers were equal, the war went on for what seemed like forever before a peace treaty was signed, signaling the end of the war, until now, demons and angels both live separately, in separate worlds, never to cross path, as it was before."His tutor ended his explanation and was ready to start teaching a new topic when Alfred started again.
"What if, a demon were to meet an angel? what do you think will happen.."Alfred continued looking at his new appearance as he left his tutor to think.
"Well, It wouldn't end well, demons and angels were never particularity fond of each other, if both were to meet, I guess they'll fight each other to death then, as for the winner, it could depend where they clash, if it's in heaven then the angel would most probably win, as they have the advantage..." Magnus found himself getting lost in the subject and hurried over to grab his book, getting ready to start a new chapter before he was stopped by Alfred once again.
"...Can an angel and a demon ever be together?.." Magnus's eyes widen at the question he just heard, just where was he getting all these questions from.
"Alfred." His tone turned serious.
"An angel and a demon can never be together...it is forbidden."
Alfred felt something within him died that day.
