Chapter 117: Chapter 117: School event
Inside the floating continent, Noah reviewed the results of the analysis of Gasper's body, the Damphir.
Now that he had no further use for it, he simply returned it to his room.
Rias, who didn't stop searching until the evening, sighed in relief to see him return but was quite upset to learn that he had stolen her Sacred Gear.
Meanwhile, Noah returned to his normal routine.
The next few days went on as normal until the day came when they would be holding an open class school event where the students' family members could see them while the class was in session.
Inside the Rias meeting room.
Suddenly two magic circles lit up on the floor before two people appeared.
"Brother!"
Rias' servants knelt down at Sirzechs' arrival.
"Brother, why did you come all the way here?"
"Eh? Won't classes be open soon?"
"You're saying..."
"I'd love to see my little sister doing her best at the academy."
"It was you who told her wasn't it Grayfia?"
Grayfia was the name of the woman dressed as a maid next to Sirzechs.
"Ah, I forgot to tell you that our father is coming too."
Rias sighed.
"You're a demon king, you know, how can you abandon your work for something so trivial."
"Well, this counts as work too.
We were thinking of holding the leaders' summit celebration at this academy."
"Here, at Kuoh Academy?"
"You don't seem surprised by this news, red dragon emperor."
"Ah, that. Let's just say I have my own sources of information.
And one thing, could you stop calling me red dragon emperor? It's too long and I don't like formalities.
You can just call me Noah."
"As you wish then."
"By the way, if you don't have a place to stay you can come sleep at my place, I'll buy you a couple of drinks while I'm at it."
"Why not?"
Sirzechs shrugged and agreed.
"Wait brother, are you seriously going to accept his proposal? Who knows if he's going to poison you or something."
"How cruel of you, as the teacher who has been voted the most popular in the school, I have to tell you that your words slightly hurt my ego."
"Haha! You two seem to be getting along well.
Well, sis, see you later."
With those words, Noah, Sirzechs and Grayfia left the academy and headed to Noah's house.
"Hey! Looks like you've got company. How can you invite the red-haired guy before me? You're a traitor!"
A twelve-winged fallen angel appeared in the sky and said with a sarcastic tone.
"Well, my door is open, if you want to join no problem."
"Well, since I'm bored, I'll go have a couple of drinks with you two."
"Azazel."
"Lucifer."
The two men stared at each other for a moment before shaking hands.
And so, the group of three men and a maid entered Noah's house and drank the entire collection of wines in the cellar before collapsing into the various seats in the living room.
Despite his refined appearance, when he loosened up after a few swigs of wine, Sirzechs let himself go like the rest and let his true personality come out.
In the end, the three of them started talking about the largest breast size they had ever seen and the discussion went on until they could drink no more and fell asleep.
Noah and Grayfia's group of three companions looked at each other and then looked at the mess made in the kitchen by those three before helplessly starting to pick up and clean up.
The next day, Rias came to pick up his brother while Azazel was picked up by Vali.
"We meet again, Welsh Dragon."
"Good morning."
"Well, for now you can take this old man with you, it's not time for our fight yet so if you have any threats like you now know where I live or something like that you better save it until we fight."
Pulling Azazel out of the door, Noah slammed it shut, leaving Vali Lucifer staring at the door in confusion.
The next day, Noah took the day off from the academy to accompany Asia to open classes.
After the first class ended, some of the students caused a ruckus by stampeding to the school gym carrying cameras.
"I guess that broad has come.
It's going to be fun."
Inside the gym, a girl dressed in a magical girl cosplay posed as the boys below took pictures of her.
"Umm, Noah, what's going on?"
"Well, Asia, you see that girl over there, she's one of the big shots from hell."
"One of the big shots?"
Asia looked at the girl who was making strange poses with curiosity on her face.
"Hey! What are they supposed to be doing? Get out of here!"
A boy from the student council came up to the podium and stood in front of the cosplayer girl before shooing people away.
"This is student council abuse!"
"Yes! You can't expel us!"
"It's just a photo shoot, what's the big deal?"
"Right!"
"We have open classes today, so don't cause trouble.
Leave now!"
The students could only curse and leave.
"Are you related to any students?"
"Yes!"
"You can't come to school in this kind of attire."
"Eeeh?"
The girl looked at him in confusion for a moment before winking at him before starting to pose as she waved her wand in the air
"Milky, milky, spiral!"
The girl tapped the young man's head gently with her wand.
"Hey...can you take this seriously?"
"Saji. What's going on here?"
"President! You see..."
"Sona chan! I found you!"
"Eh."
Suddenly, Sona, who had just walked through the door, froze in place.
"Don't tell me that you...are an acquaintance of the president?"
"Hehe. Sona chan!"
The girl ran to Sona and stood in front of her.
"What's wrong Sona chan? Your face is red.
You can finally see your sister again, you should look a little happier!
We should run excitedly to each other and give each other a big hug, saying, "Onee-sama" "Sona- Chan".
And then, then we'd have lots of yuri-like action.
Don't you think?"
A bead of sweat slid down Sona's face. She didn't know how to confront this stupid older sister of hers.
"I know you're really glad to see me, aren't you?"
"That's Serafall Leviathan, one of the four demon kings."
Noah explained to Asia at his side.
"Sis, I'm the student council president here.
You may be my family, but I can't approve of your behavior or that outfit you're wearing."
"What does that mean Sona chan?
Please don't say that or I'll get sad!
Do you know how much I admire magical girls?
With the glow of my wand, I will destroy all the angels and fallen angels!"
"Sister, please show some restraint.
This is a small country, you'll destroy it in a few minutes if you start 'glowing' here."
"Hoi! Hoi!"
Serafall nodded carelessly as she examined Sona's body from all angles.
"I can't take it anymore!"
Sona turned red with embarrassment and ran out.
"Wait for me Sona chan!"
"Get away from me!"
Luckily for Sona, someone came to the rescue.
"Hoi! Sona chan! That's your sister?"
Noah approached with Asia behind him.
"Astaros sensei."
As she answered, Sona tried to push her sister away with all her might, who wanted to forcefully hug her.
"Haha! Looks like Leviathan is as lively as the rumors say."
Noah fumbled in his pocket for a moment before pulling out a small gem.
"I figured you might show up here so I prepared a gift for you."
He handed the blue gem to Serafall, who stared at it for a while, momentarily distracting herself and allowing Sona to slip out of his grip.
"What is this trinket?"
"It's a space device.
It contains many discs with all the episodes of a magical girl anime you've never seen."
"That's impossible! I've watched every magical girl anime there is!"
"But this is a new one that never came out, only that one copy exists in the world."
"Really?"
Serafall's eyes sparkled.
The storage device was filled with dvds of Sailor Moon chapters she recorded from her memories with the help of Nexus.
It took quite a bit of work to prepare this gift but it was a good investment to get into the good books of one of the four demon kings.
"You're the new red dragon emperor right? Good boy, if you find something this good next time bring it to me."
Serafall patted Noah's chest a couple of times and was about to call Sona when he noticed that the latter had already disappeared.
"Sona chan! Where are you Sona chan!"
Serafall ran off in search of her sister.
"Well, we should get going too."
Noah and Asia left the gym and headed for the great hall where Noah chatted with some of his students' parents.
He also ran into Rias' father and chatted with him for a while.
"Thank you for taking care of my daughter during this time."
"Don't worry, it's my duty as a teacher."
Noah entertained with Rias' father for a while longer before saying goodbye and returning home along with Asia.
The next day after school.
Noah, who was sitting at his desk, saw a golden light appear in the room before a blond man with twelve golden wings on his back and a halo above his head appeared in front of him.
Michael, the leader of the angels stood in front of Noah and the two conversed for almost a full hour.
Michael invited him to attend the summit of the three forces that would be held at the academy tomorrow, plus he wanted to make sure Noah didn't take a stand with any faction so as not to upset the balance.
After all, the red dragon emperor was a force to be reckoned with in his eyes.
A golden light shot out from Michael's body and turned into a straight sword with a claw-like hilt.
"This is the dragon slayer, a holy sword created to slay dragons.
Its name is Ascalon.
We have enchanted it so that you can use it without being rejected.
Since we have met today, I was thinking of giving it to you as a gift, I hope you won't reject it.
You could have your Boosted Gear assimilate it.
You are called the most mysterious Welsh Dragon of all, I think if I can't get you to join our side, I can at least guarantee that you won't join any outside side."
"That I can guarantee you."
Noah carefully took the sword and placed it at his side, accepting the gift.
"Sigh, the three factions still have constant conflict.
If this keeps up, eventually we will all perish or a different faction might attack us at our weakest moment."
"I suppose you will take this opportunity to try to end the conflicts between you.
If an outside faction decides to attack, it would be the perfect excuse to unite you, as happened during the great war."
"That's right, that's why you, who possess the power of the red dragon emperor, can be the one to tip the balance in favor of us or the enemy."
"Don't worry, since I have accepted your proposal, that makes us allies."
"Well, it's time for me to leave, I still have to prepare for tomorrow's summit."
"See you tomorrow then."
"Bye."
With a flash of golden light, Michael disappeared from the classroom.
Noah tucked Ascalon into his magic gourd, along with the other swords.
Into the night.
Two men were standing on top of a building as they gazed down at the city below them.
"Hey Azazel, should I also attend the summit tomorrow?"
"Of course, Vali.
After all, you are the white dragon emperor."
"..."
"Tell me Azazel, will this summit prevent another great war?"
"Those words make you sound like one of those old pessimists.
You're the kind of person who doesn't live a long life."
"That's fine. I have no interest in living a long life.
I only regret that I was born in this age. In a godless world.
I would have loved to defeat that guy."
"Haha! I expected nothing less from the white dragon emperor.
Though your current rival seems like someone very interesting.
Surely you won't get bored having him as an enemy."
Vali remembered that white-haired guy.
"That guy..."
