19.Plans for School

[A/N: (Please Read) Hmm... So I forgot to put 'Flashback Chapter' in the title of the previous chapter(I corrected it.) In the future, there will be parts of flashback chapters in the middle like the previous chapter. This is a short Chapter. Read A/N at the bottom.)

______________________________________________

I didn't expect that my grandfather and Lord Zekram were this close. Now… I knew they were close but definitely not to the point of supporting two fallen pillars just to keep a promise to his friend… which I know isn't the case. Even if he is doing it seventy perfect for my grandfather, the rest of the thirty percent is for selfish reasons. And I cannot take the risk of believing such an old devil who survived the great war, at least not that easily.

I will have to keep an eye on him.

At this point, I was already back at the laboratory. 

Since my mother was still not done… I decided to look around. There were Ajuka's assistants here and there but nothing to be worried about. 

Looking around for a while I found an open computer. The screen of the monitor was turned on. But what was on the screen surprised me. It was a blueprint of a sword. I didn't have time to check what kind of sword it was, but I decided to save the picture. So I activated my Sharingan and quickly burned the image in my head. 

*Click* 

Just as I was about to look for more important files. I heard the clicking of the door, and quickly Shunshin'd to my previous spot.

"Are you done mother, Lord Ajuka?" I said, noticing the pile of signed papers in Ajuka's hand.

"Yes, sweetie. We can go now, Layla must be tired from waiting for us." She said.

I agreed with her, after all, Layla has been waiting outside for over four hours now. Why is she so… *Sigh* Forget it. I will treat her to something later.

"Thank you, Lord Ajuka." I said before both me and my mother walked out of the lab.

[Later]

"So… Did you get any mutated pieces, Shisui." Layla was excited about this entire Evil Pieces event, even more than me. And looking at her hopeful eyes… I lost my mood to troll.

"Yes, I did receive a few." I said, flashing her a smile.

Her eyes went as wide as a saucer. "How many?" 

I could feel her excitement just from her voice.

"Ermm… four. Two pawns, one knight and a rook."

Layla went quiet for a while before a massive smile bloomed on her beautiful face.

"Really?" She was excited… A bit too much..

She hugged me so hard that I was having trouble breathing. 

But… It wasn't bad. Her perfume was relaxing. And… her embrace felt good.

"*Ahem* We are almost home. And you should rest well today. You will be starting school tomorrow." Mother reminded me about school.

Yes, school. Devils are homeschooled till they turn ten years old. After that, they are sent to the Devil Academy, where they spend another five years of their life. Well, five years for devils is very small. 

But this devil academy is not perfect. It is not without discrimination. Devils in the academy are divided into three classes.

1-A: It includes devils from the 72 pillars with decent to good demonic power.

2-B: It includes devils from the pillars which are considered extinct or are from high-ranked pillars but have low demonic power.

And lastly,

1-C: It includes devil children from the extra clans and the Low-class devils. It doesn't matter if they have very high demonic power, if they are Low-class, they will be put in this class.

*Sigh* It is definitely not a good thing to discriminate amongst children. But it was a decision made by the council. So there is nothing we can do about it. And the Devil Kings tend to overlook these things. Not to mention their family members will get a free pass for class 1-A. So they seem fine with these things.

As for me… Both my family pillars are considered to be extinct. So, I was placed in 1-B. 

Not that I mind. Instead, I am quite happy as I don't have to interact with those arrogant devils all the time. But *sigh* my mother was quite sad that I wasn't accepted in class 1-A like the rest of the High-class devils and it took a lot of effort to lift up her mood. But she finally accepted… Not that she could have done anything against the council's decision anyway. But a mother's love knows no bounds.

"So, are you excited about going to school." Layla asked with glittering eyes.

Honestly, I am not. To me, it's just a waste of time. I already learned what they teach at school. So there is no point in going there. But I can't say that… not after my father told me that Layla wasn't able to go to school. I don't know the details, he didn't answer even after my continuous prying. So I decided to wait for Layla. Unless she decides to tell me about her past, I won't ask.

"I am. I want to see what it's like to go to the Devil Academy." I lied through my teeth.

"There will be many more children from noble houses. So like always, be at your best behavior." Mother said smiling at me.

[Timeskip]

I don't know how strong the devils of my age are. But with all the powers that I currently possess, I don't think they are going to be much of a challenge to me.

I cannot directly harm them as many of those devils are above me in rank. But the fact that I cannot directly go against them doesn't mean that I don't have other methods.

I thought as the fully matured Sharingan manifested in my eyes. Despite not having the Kotoamatsukami, my Genjutsu is still strong. In this world, there are no Genjutsu users. There are illusion magic users but not even a single person that can use Genjutsu. 

Some might think why is it so special? Illusion magic can do the same things. But the point is, no one other than the caster of the Genjutsu can figure out that a person is under Genjutsu. Why? Because there are no Genjutsu users, so no one knows if they are under an illusion created by the Sharingan. 

The only reason Zekram was able to see through my cover was because I was using pure chakra to cloak it. Devils are extremely sensitive to other types of magic and powers so he easily saw through my cover. But there is a way to prevent that. That is through creating demonic cloaks. Demonic cloak prevents the devil senses from picking up the chakra a person has hidden.

I went towards my desk and picked up one of the books that is required in the academy.

I won't be going to the academy everyday, there is no point in doing so. But I cannot remain absent either, so I will have to send my clones to attend the academy… while I can explore.

A smile crept up my face. "So it's finally time to explore the world, huh?"

[A/N: Thanks Geir.

The fact that I said 'Stop spamming 1 stars... Doesn't mean you should spam 5 stars either. Review honestly please. I don't mind low reviews (If you can give honest reasons.) I hate those 5 star spam reviews as much as the 1 star ones. please don't spam 'EEEEEEE' or 'AAAAAA' while reviewing. Doesn't matter whether it is 1 star or 5 star.

Alright, Cya till next chapter.

Shisui will go to the devil academy next chappy~]
