[The Plot Begins Part: 6]

With the introduction settled, Ozpin decieded to start the interviewing if the man before him. "Before I officially start this interview, I would like to ask why your documents only contain your name and birth, but nothing else? " Ookurikara mentally clicked his tongue, but had thought of using the excuse that all those mc's used in such situations.

"I come from outside the kingdoms rule, and that was all the information I was willing to give. " He was being truthful, he didn't come from the kingdoms at all, and by using this method, he had successfully lied infront of someone who has been known to judge well. Ozpin nodded in approval but with..shame? While the others showed some form of pity, except for Glynda, who hid the emotion from her expressions.

The reason for their emotions was due to how cruel life was outside the kingdom's, and their own knowledge and experience they have went through. Outside, because the kingdom didn't control or protect the land, grimm invasion were common, muderers freely killed whoever they wanted, bandits attacked often, and the kingdom didn't allow villagers to buy the kingdom's food, and instead sell their resources for currency to instead get materials and produce their own resources to sustain themselves.

Ozpin out of his moment of remembrance, began the official interview. "This will be the first question, what subject will you be teaching? " Ozpin first had to uderstand what Ookurikara was gonna be teaching so that he can survey his knowledge on the subject, it wouldn't be right to interview a martial artist on their knowledge of seduction, it wouldn't make sense!

The question made Ookurikara think more on what and how he was gonna teach, but after a bit of thinking he had more of an idea now. "I would be teaching my students on aura, and how to properly manage it. " Ookurikara replied with some understanding of what he would be doing.

Ozpin raised his eyebrows, while the other professors were also questioning him with their gazes. "Isn't that similar to combat class? How will your's be different from Glynda's class? " Ozpin asked, and Ookurikara replied stoically. "I doubt Glynda wouldn't mind less work unless she's a workaholic, but my class will delve in the history, workings, enchanting, and much more. My class could also include battles using only aura to relieve some of Glynda's work, and Increasing my own students mastery over their aura. " Ookurikara said, and shocked everyone in the room because some of the things he said were almost unbelievable. Enchanting with aura? That wasn't something that even experienced and wealthy huntresses or hunters learned!

Ozpin sipped from his mug, and asked him another question. "Where did aura come from? " The question had many solutions, but Ookurikara was sure that he only needed to answer with the correct one.

Smirking, he said something that shook the group, "I..believe, aura came from the two brothers when they created life, and that the soul is the eldest brother's light while aura is a byproduct of said light. I also know of the dark brother's gift, but what it exactly was I don't understand yet. " Of course Ookurikara already knew that the gift was magic, but why would he disclose the information?

The answer shook them, and Ozpin's opinion on Ookurikara was currently uncertain, but tried to appear calm. "So you believe in the two brothers? "

Ookurikara if course believed in them, he had seen them when he was watching the anime! "I also believe in Yahweh, and all the other gods, because..all myths have an origin. "

Ozpin raised an eyebrow and so did the others, before chuckling a bit.

"Wise words Mr . Ookurikara, you pass. " Ookurikara's eyes widened under his mask in shock and disbelief, 'It couldn't be this easy could it? I had expected a whole lot more than this ". Ozpin stood out of his chair and walked over to him while sipping his mug and twirling his weaponised cane, feeling danger, Ookurikara activated time dilation and his instincts were correct!

Ozpin's cane twirled and swung at him at insane speeds, but Ookurikara reacted in time and swiftly drew his blade, stopping the impact of the cane. Ozpin smiled at his success, "You truly are skilled to be able to block such an attack, so I'll continue on. " Ookurikara sweat dropped at such an action, and understood why every other person failed even getting this far. 'If I hadn't activated time dilation, I wonder what the outcome would be? " He thought grimly.

"So, how do I..exactly get the job? " Ookurikara asked, and to which Ozpin smirked sending chills down his spine. "I'll of course give you an initiation " Ookurikara eyes widened underneath his mask, and realised that Ozpin was doing something under his desk and that he was standing on a huge click beneath him.

He tried to dodge, but the floor tilted and exploded with such force that it made him soar out the window! Ookurikara tried to stabilise himself, but he soon realised that multiple dusts have been used within the explosion sending him father than normal and making it nealy imposible for him to stop it!

Looking down below, he saw the blue waves of the ocean... "You sadistic bastard!!! " But he was already too far away for anyone to hear.

-------------------------

Back at the office...

Glynda and the rest of the teacher's watched the figure of Ookurikara slowly head out toward the endless sea, and looked back at the chill principle sipping calmly. "Wasn't that a bit much? " Glynda asked, and Ozpin laughed. "Of course, but I'm sure he'll be fine ".

Glynda sighed, 'I don't get paid enough for this '.

Now, morning...

Jeanne awoke upon her bed comfortably, and slowly yawned her sleepiness away. Getting out of bed and neatly tidying it up, she saw a note on her door. Taking it off, and reading it.

====

From Ookurikara:

Jeanne, I am leaving for important businesses for who knows how long, and so I leave the shop in your hands. Also, I built your armour in the basement as thanks for all your efforts and work, do the shop and me proud.

====

Jeanne pouted at being left alone, 'Meanie, always leaving in the middle of the night, and missing days. ' But, tugged down the stairs and into the basement.

Seeing the armour, her disappointment vanished and she excitedly checked out her new armour. Wearing it, she felt a sudden feeling to check out something beside the crafting table, opening it open and digging through the contents, she felt something smooth so she pulled it out.

Just about as she was gonna open the box, doubts came across her mind not to open it, 'Just a little peak. ' She rationalised, and took a tiny peak inside. What she saw was black, and taking it out, it unfolded and seeing what it was made her blush with embarrassment.

She stuttered, 'This.....'
