Visitors in the Night

Taking an oath is holy in this world because if someone will not keep her/his oath something awful will happen to him/her, such as he will be hit by lightning, his heart demon grows aggressive and unnatural events will occur to them.

After taking the oath, as the contract takes effect. Raven advises leaving the dungeon. But first, he fixed his gaze on Lilith's figure.

"You can't expose your form to others, therefore you need to change shape to something that won't draw people's attention," Raven told Lilith.

Raven is aware that, in addition to their innate [charm], Succubus has another skill known as [shapeshifting]. Most Succubus master these two abilities since it is how they mix in with demons.

Lilith, on the other hand, sighed and agreed to him, "Okay! What do you want me to morph with?"

"I want you to morph into a common crow."

"What the hell! I don't want to," Lilith says, disagreeing with Raven.

"Just a normal looking crow was enough. I'll tell you this. I am a professor of a well-known academy, and there are many old monsters hiding in it. So, if you don't want to be discovered early, hide yourself. Also, if there is a disadvantage about it, there is also an advantage because you can recover your strength in there in silence, since there was no one who could bravely target the academy." Raven explains it solemnly to Lilith.

Another reason Raven wants Lilith to shift into a crow is that he likes a crow, which is a parallel for his name. He just wants things to be cool, even if it's immature, but even if Lilith would not agree? It's also fine with him.

Lilith reluctantly agrees to it after some thought. "Okay"

Lilith transforms into a crow while resting on Raven's shoulder, and the two then vanish, leaving the area in tranquility.

There is an old tree that covers the field on the highest peak. There are several lads and girls below... Some of the girls were conversing with one another, while others were eating in the corner, and the boys were watching them from afar. The group noticed a bulky man in his trouser suit with no upper dress.

As the huge guy passed by, a woman with white hair rose up and confidently asked the bulky man, "When is Mr. Ashford coming back?"

All of Raven's students stopped what they were doing and glanced at the big man, waiting for his response.

The bulky person merely looked at his magical watch to see the time and remarked, "It's not a time yet."

When the students were going to complain, they heard a voice.

"Is there an issue here?"

The students all turned to see where the voice was coming from. As a result, they came upon a man in a wheelchair with a black crow on his shoulder.

"Sire, we've already completed your assignment; what will be next?" one of his students asked.

"There's still so much time till the sun rises," Raven says as he looks at the sun.

"Will we spend the night here?" someone inquires.

There are already eleven individuals who have completed the assignment. Some of them had significant parts in the story, and one of them was a concealed villain.

Raven said to the student, "Why not?"

Every student was uncomfortable staring at one another after Raven spoke.

Raven then whispers something to Ricardo before heading for his private room and leaving the student beneath the old tree.

*********

When the night fell, everything was calm. Under an ancient tree, the students crafted a bonfire and viewed the moon.

A bishoujo was pleasantly speaking with her companion when a young man with a polite manner said, "How many Red Fancy Fox did you catch, princess?"

The young guy was Ismund Kudrit, Duke Fredirick Kudrit's third son. He was gifted and born into a noble family, yet he never liked common people. They weren't the same species in his eyes as he thinks that he was superior to them.

On the other side, the charming, attractive woman was the seventh princess of the empire, Princess Leonora Celeste. She was composed and had crimson hair that reached her shoulders.

Ismund was given a strange look by Princess Leonora, who kindly responded, "Not as much as Mr. Kudrit caught."

Ismund was going to say something when a woman interrupted and pointed a sword in his neck, saying, "Mr. Kudrit, I trust you know your bounds. So, Please step down and go back" Hearing the woman say, it made Ismund grin awkwardly before turning and deciding to leave the two.

The woman's name is Enra Strauss, the princess's childhood friend, who stood at the princess side. She had a fierce temperament and a combat maniac.

Princess Leonora inquired, "Why did you do it, Enra?"

"I simply don't like him. I feel like he's not good, and I always go with my gut," she says nonchalantly.

The Princess giggled as she heard Enra remark, "I also don't like him." She replies.

On the other side, Ismund, who was in a terrible mood, looked at the two girls who were chuckling.

"Someday you'll be mine," Ismund says, clenching his fist

As Ismund is muttering to himself, a man emerged from behind him and placed his hand on Ismund's shoulder. The guy joked "Hey! What's the problem? Your face was awful"

The man was a buddy of Ismund's. He was also a son of a duke in the northern part of the empire. His name is Rience Cross, He was a happy-go-lucky man who enjoyed bullying the weak.

Reince annoys Ismund when they are conversing since he knows Ismund admires the 7th princess for her beauty and power.

"Stop it, Reince," Ismund told him. Reince just laughs as he feels good in response.

*************

Someone said in the darkness

"First, I'll kill the instructor, and you've just abducted all the kids here since they're all aristocrats."

"Okay" someone replied

"We'll have the happiest days of our lives after tonight."

The night was peaceful, as the moon illuminated the surroundings and the sound of little insects could be heard. As some students are already asleep and others are still awake talking to one other, a bonfire provides warmth to the cold evening.

The student weren't even aware that there were already armed individuals in black clothing and devil masks monitoring them from a distance while they converse amicably.

End of Chapter.
