Ch 9

Slowly the days began to merge, the busy work sucked away all his time along with his volunteer work. Each and every passing ay Elasma got closer with Mamaoi and SIlbi, they proceed him a necessary resource to his health, joy. He had been lacking it for so long, that life had become dull.

He loved it here, it was clean, comfortable, and safe, He couldn't wish anything more for his family. Even if Zazlae was being difficult Elasma still loved him, he still cared for him. How could he not? He spent years worrying for his brothers and making their lives as good as possible, but now he didn't have to do anything, all he needed to do was get in a high in the ranks and he was set.

He sat at his normal spot in the library finishing the last of his papers when Zazlae approached him.

"Hello acquaintance," Elasma said emotionlessly.

"Look what I said was wrong, I am sorry for that. I was way too harsh... but you should still try to be better," Zazlae explained softly

"Zazlae I have sacrificed so much for you... but this school gave me a chance to realize, my health is important as well. I have changed, I am happy now, and please don't get in the way fo that," Elasma growled softly.

"Elasma! Elasma!" SIlbvi said happily rushing into the library and running vore to Elasma.

Silbi quickly pushed past Zazlae and stuck her phone in Elasma's face.

"His highness is coming to the academy today!!!" Silbi squealed happily.

"Really?" Elasma asked happily.

"Yes! And it is rumored that a few demons have been giving him some trouble recently... so we might get a demonstration of his unlimited power!!!!" Silbi added skipping happily around the library.

"Ok when is this going to happen?!" Elasma asked excitedly.

"Five pm, everyone is invited to attend so we need to get there early in order to get good seats!" Silbi replied happily.

Finally, it was the last class of the day. Elasma sat, his mind slowly fading into his own dream world, free from work and full of creativity. Then the announcements began, the voice was different this time, way too low pitched to be any student.

"His royal highness will be arriving at this very academy, every who is to attend must be dressed properly and be on their best behavior. He will be arriving at 5 pm so be prepared if you are to attend."

Then the voice cut out and the normal announcements began as normal.

"Well on that happy note I feel it is only appropriate I announce our next project. As I said before this until we will be going over the demon kings and their lives. Now each one of you has been assigned a demon king, and you will be paired with someone else who has another king, the two of you will create a project and presentation to represent your demon kings and their relationship,"

Elasma perked up at the announcement, the demon kings were always a fascinating topic for him. Their power, strength, and cunning plans, the demon kings were the perfect group of predators, they were able to crush humanity easily but instead, they grew innovative as the humans had, and they began to craft and manipulate, creating brilliant plans.

The kings were truly remarkable, horrifying but remarkable

"Elasma you have Samael and you are to be paired with Refiucl who has Lucifer,"

"What?" Elasma asked in shock.

"There are no changing partners and you won't always get along with everyone, but you still need to learn how to get along," The teacher replies with a cruel smile.
