Chapter 53: Chapter 53
"President, the time for students to enter has passed, it's time for us to close the gate."
A young bespectacled woman with long hair said as she bowed slightly.
"Good job, Tsubaki."
"You can go ahead, and prepare the student council papers, I will close the gate." A young woman with short hair and glasses said seriously as she adjusted her glasses.
Tsubaki stared at Sona for a few moments, before nodding and heading toward the student council. She noticed that in the past few weeks, Sona had been more flighty than usual, and that worried her.
But no matter how much she asked, Sona would always reply that she was fine and that it was Tsubaki who was weighing her down too much.
Looking at Tsubaki from a distance, Sona gave a sigh. She knew she hasn't been acting normal, but she couldn't help it, the information she received was simply shocking.
The God she believed was alive was actually dead.
But that wasn't what made her feel avoider, rather, the man she had fought weeks ago.
Akira.
She couldn't get him out of her mind, no matter how hard she tried.
The scene of him conjuring True Longinus was simply unforgettable, plus that woman who appeared at the end of her fight, Sona felt that the woman belonged to the Gremory clan, but no matter how hard she investigated, she couldn't find any information.
And if that wasn't enough, all the people who attended the Sky Extermination Conference had their memories messed up, causing no one to remember Akira except herself.
When she learned that all the young devils who were at the Conference had their memories messed up, she thought about exposing what she knew to the high council of the underworld, but in the end, she chose to say the same thing as the young devils.
That is, she said that the conference had been attacked by an arrogant man who called himself as:
Uchiha Madara!
In the past no one would have cared about that name, but now, the entire underworld was paying attention to this person who dared to attack the Sky Extermination Conference. Not only did this man attack the conference, he also killed a high-class devil who was ranked high in the Rating Game.
Feeling that she was about to get lost in thought, she shook her head strongly. If someone saw her acting this way, they would have doubts whether this was the true heiress of the Sitri clan.
...
At that moment, just as she was about to close the gate, she heard rushing footsteps near her.
"Huh?"
Turning her face, she saw a couple running hurriedly towards the Kuoh gate. Identifying the uniform the couple wore, she realized that they were both students of Kuoh.
Knowing that the entrance hours were already over, she decided to intercept this couple, and take them to the student council, to have them sign a term before entering.
Adjusting her glasses, she approached the couple's back and said in a serious manner, "You two are late!"
The moment she said those words, she felt a discomfort in her heart, especially when she looked at the back of the man in front of her.
She had not yet seen the face of this couple, but she could tell that they were handsome, but what was making her uncomfortable was precisely the man who had his back to her.
His white hair fluttered in the wind, and the aura around him made her feel uncomfortable.
...
"You two are late!"
Hearing those words, Akira and Lavinia stopped in their tracks.
Both their eyes met, knowing that they were screwed for being late. They knew that Kuoh Academy was strict with schedules.
Lavinia looked at Akira as if to say, "See? This is your fault."
Feeling Lavinia's gaze on him, Akira smiled as he pinched her hand.
'You girl, clearly we are late because you eat too much.'
"Hmph!"
As if she could read Akira's thoughts, Lavinia huffed and turned to face the person who had spoken earlier.
When she turned around, she could feel that the young woman in front of her was a devil.
At that moment, Sona had a serious expression on her face.
She didn't notice it before, but after Lavinia turned around, she felt that this couple was not common.
The woman in front of her emitted magical power, which meant that she belonged to the supernatural. And the man who still had his back turned, was really a devil!
And from the aura the man was emitting, he was a high-class devil.
Her discomfort seemed to increase, causing her to frown.
Lavinia who saw all this, knew that they had been revealed.
"Didn't you say you knew the devils here?"
Lavinia said as she slammed her elbow into Akira's rib.
Feeling pain in his rib from the elbow, Akira stared at Lavinia with resentment, he didn't expect her to attack him so suddenly.
"You really are vindictive." He muttered, as he turned around.
The moment he turned around, he instantly recognized the girl who was standing in the distance.
"Oh! It's been a while, Sona."
Akira said as he nodded.
"Do you really know her? I thought you were lying when you said you knew the devils of this place." At that moment, Lavinia seemed relieved that Akira knew Sona.
"Didn't I tell you to trust me? Sona is a long-time friend." Akira said with a playful smile.
Recognizing the man who had turned to face her, Sona shivered.
Of all places, she never imagined she would find him here, at Kuoh Academy.
Her beautiful face went pale, she didn't know how to face him, she had fought him before, and knew she couldn't defeat him even if all her nobility helped her.
'Is he here for me?'
'He knows I was the only one who didn't have my memory messed up, and that's why he wants to kill me?'
Many thoughts took over her head, making her more and more tense.
But when she heard him say that she was his long-time friend, her body seemed to collapse, causing her to lose consciousness for a few moments which was enough for her to fall.
But before her body could touch the ground, she felt her waist being grabbed by a strong hand, and the next thing she knew, she was being held by the man who gave her many nightmares.
"Are you okay, you almost fainted." Akira said with a serious expression.
"Y- You... Why are you here?"
Sona's body was limp as she was held by Akira, this was the first time a man had held her like this, and this man was someone who had almost killed her.
"Huh? I'm a student at Kuoh Academy."
"Student?!"
Sona's eyes widened upon hearing that news.
A terrorist wanted by the entire underworld had actually become a student of Kuoh Academy.
Lavinia who was standing at a distance, felt a trace of discomfort in her heart, as she saw Akira holding another woman, and as if to end it, she approached the two and spoke, "How long do you plan to hold her?"
Her stern voice, sounded in Akira's ears, making him realize how wrong this position he was holding Sona was.
"My bad."
Saying that, he turned away from Sona with an apologetic smile.
"Allow me to introduce myself again."
"I am Akira, and as of today a third year student at Kuoh Academy."
