Chapter 116 His Highness
"Then let's just see him as the final boss."
"What? Final boss? What are you talking about? Did you play some RPG game at the VR section of the military" Kye asked.
"Yeah final boss," Ven answered with a big smile. "We don't necessarily have to go against Azul now. We're not strong enough for that, so there's no need to bother with him. But instead, we can just try and go to Maria and John. Especially during the exam. We can try to beat them as hard as we can while staying under the rules of the exam. The other will agree to it for sure. So what do you think?"
Kye didn't say a thing for a while. He was thinking about what his friend just said, and in the end, he couldn't help but feel dumb because he didn't think about it sooner. So with a small smile, he answered. "You can be pretty smart when you want, don't you?"
"You can be pretty cute when you want as well, don't you?" He smirked. He knew that Kye would answer something like that since even he himself felt smart after thinking about this. And since he knew that Kye took compliments quite hard, he decided to tease him a little.
"D-don't say that!" He looked away.
"Haha, you didn't change in the slightest."
"You-..."
Ven only sucked his tongue before laughing.
***
In a VIP room, an otherwordly-looking boy sat on his couch angrily.
"This bitch of Elisa! She's always interrupting my plans." The handsome boy, who was none other than Leo shouted. "I can't even observe this Kye and see if he's really an angel or not. Arghh seriously this situation sucks. Why do I have to stay with those lowly humans in the first place? And why are there even angels here in the first place as well? Did they send Elisa to spy on them like me?
"Argh whatever seriously, I don't care." He said as he rested his head on the back of his couch.
However, his rest was short because he heard a special noise.
This noise came from under his king-size bed.
Leo rushed toward his bed as fast as he could and took what looked like a briefcase. He opened it, and immediately, a hologram appeared.
"Leo Vandra!"
"Yes, it is me, commander. What can I do for you today?" Leo kneeled and show respect to his superior.
The man who appeared on the hologram was quite handsome as well, but not anywhere near Leo. Though, unlike Leo, the commander had two big horns on each side of his head.
"A special mission arrived from his highness!" The commander said with a firm voice.
"What? You mean Sir Asmodeus?" Leo began to sweat. Never in his life did he believe that he would one day receive a mission from one of the princes of the demon realm.
"No, it came from the king himself!"
"What?!" This time, Leo was utterly shocked. The king, who was none other than lucifer would give him a mission? For real?"
"I don't know anything else, so I'll leave you with his highness. However, do not forget to be respectful, is that clear?!"
"Yes, commander!" Leo answered with a firm voice.
"Good. Now please be ready!"
Leo could see that the commander was manipulating something from the other side of the hologram. And once he finished, the hologram of the commander disappeared and got replaced by the king of the demon realm.
He was even more handsome than him, even though he was an incubus and was known as one of the most beautiful being in the world alongside its female counterpart, the succubus.
"Leo Vandra!" The king of the demon realm has black hair and black eyes. It looked like if one were to look at him in the eyes, they will stare at the abyss itself.
"Yes, your highness!" Leo didn't even dare to look at him. Even though they weren't in front of each other, he could feel immense pressure upon him. So he didn't dare to look at Lucifer directly.
"Is there someone named Kye Vermillion in the academy you are currently in?"
Leo's eyes widen when he heard this name. A lot of questions were in his head right now. But the most important one was 'how does the king know about such a lowly being?'
"Yes your highness, there is indeed someone who is named like this. I was investigating him because I felt like he possessed Holy energy, but he seems to be aware that something is happening. So I didn't see him use any holy energy for more than a month now. But may I know how his highness knows about him?"
"Kye Vermillion is my son, so I expect you to treat him well!"
"Y-yes your highness," Leo answered automatically. He didn't expect this answer, thus his brain short-circuited for more than a few seconds.
"Good. I also want you to assist him in any way he needs. But don't act suspicious or I'll deal with you personally."
"Yes, I must do what you ordered me, your highness."
"Last but not least, he doesn't know about his origin, so do not tell him anything either. He's not ready to know about it yet."
"Yes, I will do as you ask."
"Good, that's all for now. I will contact you again." Without saying anymore, Lucifer closed the call, relieving Leo tremendously.
When the former was giving his order, Leo could feel more pressure pressing down on him. It was even hard to breathe at the end, but thankfully, he managed to answer without wavering much.
"Argh, it's even worse than I thought. Kye is an angel, but also the son of his highness. We're not in a novel for god-damn sake." Leo sat on his butt after closing the briefcase. He was mentally exhausted. "And how can he be an angel and a demon at the same time? It doesn't make any sense!"
