(5 days after Nico's meeting with the Valkyries)

It had become quiet clear to Theresa that Nico had left something out of their conversation five days ago. This wasn't without reason however, as it was clear to the childlike Valkyrie that Nico really was still coming to terms with being the last Sparda's guardian.

Currently, the white haired principal of St. Freya was on her way to the medical ward, intending to find out just what it was that Nico had left out of their conversation. 

Entering the room that the two survivors were staying in, Theresa spotted the sole occupants instantly. 

And it became obvious that the situation involving Alexander hadn't changed. 

The boy was still unconscious, his condition from when he had been brought in hadn't changed.

"Miss Goldstein, we need to talk." Theresa said. 

"About?" The southern woman asked.

"When i questioned you five days ago, it felt like you weren't telling me something." Theresa stated. "I need you to be honest with me, what didn't you tell me?" 

Nico stayed silent for a minute before speaking. "Do you know how the Devil Trigger is supposed to work?" Nico asked getting a head shake from the petite woman. "There are three factors The first is desire. The Devil Trigger can evolve based on the desires of the user, take Dante, the kids grand uncle, for instance. Guy had a recorded six devil Triggers before he got to his peak strength. Nero himself had two before he almost reached the same level of strength as Dante." 

"What does this have to do with what you didn't tell me?"

"Everything, that's what." Nico stated. "The second is ones demonic power, if you aren't strong enough, you can't generate enough Demon energy to transform in the first place." she sighed before sitting back. "Then we come to the problem, you can't transform without a catalyst, a Devil Arm that resonates with your Demonic Energy." Nico gave out a bitter laugh. "Nero didn't care about that rule though, guy crated his second Devil Trigger through desire and power alone, wouldn't be surprised if Alex could do the same." 

"I see, then that answered my next question." Theresa muttered. "Will not having a Devil Arm effect him? If he had a Devil Arm could that possibly help him recover?" 

"Yeah, but its next to impossible for humans to create Devil Arms. You need to be a Demon to enforce Demon kinds rules." The tan woman said. 

"What rules? I didn't think Demons had rules."

"Well they ain't rules per say, it's something built into every Demon from birth or creation. The golden rule for Demon kind, the Weak serve the strong. Its ingrained into what little culture the ugly sumbitch's have. If you can't serve in life you serve in Death, that's how Devil Arms are created. You kill an ultimate class Demon, you take its soul and turn it into a weapon." Nico explained causing Theresa to grimace.

"We can't kill Ultimate class Demon's, not yet, and i can't go out into the field too often, i'm in charge of this school. We can't risk confronting an Ultimate class Demon." The white haired woman spoke with her face still set in a grimace. 

"Well, i can sorta make 'em." Nico admitted getting Theresa's attention. "Problem is all my notes on the topic is destroyed. And besides, the last time i made a Devil Arm was nearly sixteen years ago now."
