A TEACHER'S SENSE OF DUTY

Back when the summoned were transferred into another world, the Principal, Mr. Kanazuma found himself in a whole different place.

[Name: Kanazuma Isamu]

[Level: 150]

"What is happening.. Where are the student.. Their homeroom teacher..... What-"

"I know this has been rather sudden for you," he heard. He turned around and saw a man who looked to be around his twenties. He was dressed in formal attire; a plain dark grey suit with a white shirt along with dark grey shoes. His blonde hair was neatly arranged and his brown eyes looked as if they were glowing.

"Who are you?" He asked. Just as he did so, a display appeared in front of him.

[Archangel Michael Lorentia]

"I believe you can see my two names, am I right?"

"Yes..." Kanazuma looked around, reading his environment. There was only a large mansion at a distance, an the rest were trees that looked like Sakura trees, but with a golden appearance. They draped gently over the road that led to the mansion.

"Do you care to explain all of this?" Kanazuma asked.

"I will, just follow me."

The two walked silently up to the gate of the mansion.

"Better prepare yourself for what you are about to see," Michael said as the gates opened.

True to his word, as they entered, there were people, at both sides, both male and female. They all knelt down as golden wings appeared on their backs. Their wings could only be described with one word: beautiful. They covered themselves with their wings as the two passed, showing respect to the Archangel. The doors were opened, revealing the most grandiose living room Kanazuma had ever seen.

"Please, come in."

"S-Sure..." Kanazuma said as he removed his shoes.

"There's no need to remove your shoes, but feel comfortable to do whatever you deem comfortable.," The Archangel said.

They were welcomed with a mighty feast that awaited them.

"Um.. Before this, could we speak about what is going on? I am concerned about my students' welfare."

"You are quite the caring principal... But very well, I shall start with explaining." He replied.

"By now you already know that this is a supernatural act. I am an Archangel, so of course there is a god I serve, right? Your students have been chosen to be let's say, heroes. They have been graced great powers that will grow even stronger and stronger as they progress. All of this is for preparing for what is to come."

"What is to come?"

"A great war is going to happen, that's all we know. Our creator, the Lord Aurendor, has chosen your students to help in that war."

"A war? They are all below 18!" Kanazuma retorted back as he gripped the end of his seat, cracking it.

"How do you expect them to handle such a thing?!"

"Relax a bit, will you? I kn-"

"Why couldn't you choose any others? You could have chosen some grown ups or something! They are children!"

"I know this rather looks selfish of us, but we did not choose them at a whim. We did a delicate procedure in order to decide that they were the ones that we were going to choose.. Let's do this then.. How about you observe them along with me, then you shall decide afterwards?"

Kanazuma took a deep breath, calming his nerves. He knew that the person in front of him was not just a regular person, but a greater being. He still had to consider his thoughts.

"Under one condition then,"

"State it."

"There is one among them called Mitsuki Ichiro. Back then I noticed that he was of a somehow low level, and plus... He has gone through a lot together with his sister. I wouldn't want his sister to be left alone, so I ask of you, return him back to our world, that is all."

Michael looked at the man in front of him with a slight smile, impressed by the concern he had for his students.

"Worry not, they are both here, both he and the sister.. Plus, he has turned out to be an important figure." Michael said as he gave Kanazuma a vision. He saw the two in a forest, talking to a girl with orange hair. The view changed to the others, who were then in front of a person that Kanazuma assumed was a king because of his attire. He saw that they were all lively, not even one of them had a hint of sadness in their eyes.

"What about their families? They must be stressing right now...."

"We shall take care of their families, they shall be informed of this in due time and in the future, we shall let them meet with their parents and siblings. Is that favorable enough?"

"Yes.. Then, One last request..."

Kanazuma knelt on one knee and looked down.

"As their Principal- no, as their teacher, I have the duty to always guide them, to always protect them from danger and to always set their paths correct. I ask of you this; train me, so that I shall become a leading beacon to them, be it in training, be it in school, be it in war. I want to be there at the frontlines along with them, correcting their every single mistake, and for that, I know I need to be strong enough.. I need to take care of them on behalf of their parents, so please...."

Michael placed his hand on top of Kanazuma's head.

"Worry not, I was to do so anyway." He said as a golden cocoon like substance started covering Kanazuma.

"You have a good sense of leadership, for that I do commend you. I shall ensure that you grow into quite the formidable person." He said. A large crest appeared below them. It was golden in color and was triangular in shape. 

"I, Archangel Michael, acknowledges you, Kanazuma Isamu, to be fit of transcending to become an angel. I ask of the heavens, break the limits of man, decipher the soul of he and transcend him to a higher level. Break the shackles of Mortality and let his soul ascend into the higher realm of immortals. May the earth swallow up his mortal flesh, and may the heavens grant him an immortal body, by my blessings I pray."

As he chanted, Kanazuma felt pain as his flesh was devoured and as his hole body was being reconstructed. At last, the cocoon broke, revealing his new form. He now had a black cloak. His hair was now fully grey and his eyes were golden. Two pairs of large golden wings covered his face as he bowed down in front of Michael.

"I thank you very much."

[Your soul has Transcended]

[You are now an Angel of an unranked entity]

[You have attained a new title: Heaven's Butler]

[Due to your transcending, the system shall now be tranformed]

A golden Rapier materialized itself on Kanazuma's hand.

[The system shall now exit your body.]

[The system shall attain the form of The Rapier Solomon the All knowing.]

Kanazuma suddenly felt dizzy and he lost consciousness. Before his body could fall, Michael held him.

"He turned out to be quite a powerful angel I see.." He thought as he carried him into a room and placed him on a bed.

******

"So that's what happened." Kanazuma said to Mitsuki as he finished explaining.

"An angel.... As expected of our Principal.. I can even see that your aura is a whole other different story," Mitsuki said.

"Yes, your teacher over here is around at level 1500 right now." Aqua said as he healed Mitsuki.

"Wait what the- That's so amazing!"

"What kind of hellish training did he actually go through? His personality is also at a whole other level, his grandeur appearance.. How did he change this much in weeks?" Mitsuki thought.

"That is because I am your principal, I have a duty to be always ahead of you all." He replied.

"Y- You can read minds!"

"If you are not cautious enough, yes."

"Then, what skill did you use to hide yourself all this time, Teacher?" Mitsuki thought.

"I am able to walk into people's realms while my body enters the fourth dimension partially.. So, I am here and I am not here at the same time. That way, I can hide my presence completely."

"That is so amazing Sir."

"Drop the formalities for now."

"Yes si- Okay, I shall."

"Tapping into the fourth dimension... It will allow your body to present and absent simultaneously... If I am correct, you can use this in so many ways that will allow you to have an advantage in a fight against a person or an entity that does not have the ability to sense dimensional warps.. Meaning to gods like Jupiter, Realos and Nozark, they can sense you.. Wait.." He thought.

"Aqua, how did you sense him?"

"Me? Well, this is my realm. In it, I have the abilities that I had when I had been blessed by Realos and the rest before I became a god, so I can sense dimensional warping here. Why do you ask?"

"I am just asking.. Wait.. can you fully enter into the fourth dimension?"

"No, no god can, maybe Lord Aurendor, but we do not know. There is an unknown phenomena that always blocks people and gods from fully entering or even seeing it. We only have the ability to channel ourselves into the fourth dimension by either dipping our mana in it."

"I see.."

"I have to try this out then.. I have the perfect idea.." He said as he let out a wry smile.

"This kid.. Immediately I said that I could read minds, he blocked me after asking his question..." Kanazuma thought as he laughed.

"What's funny?" Aqua asked.

"That smile Mitsuki has on right now... I have seen it several times... It means he just thought of something quite astonishing or let's say, deadly.. Ain't I right?" He asked. 

Mitsuki's eyes were glowing in excitement.

"Yes, I just thought of something fun.. May I ask how you tap into the fourth dimension?"

"Oh? This shall be a long lesson,"

"I am once more in your care, Sensei. You were the best teacher back then on earth, I will be happy if you teach me once more."

"And what the hell should I tell your girls? I do not want to be disturbed with 'Where is Mitsuki' all the time.." Aqua said.

"Worry not, Lord Aqua. You shall not even notice when we are done." Kanazuma said as his eyes glowed.

"What do you mea-"

Suddenly, Aqua froze, as if frozen in time. 

"What the- Aqua.. Has been frozen in time?!" Mitsuki exclaimed.

"Quite close, but no."

[You are now under Celestial Authority]

[Time shall not flow ]

"Celestial Authority?!" Mitsuki asked.

"As a semi Archangel, I can ask for Celestial authority from Lord Aurendor." Kanazuma said.

"So.. Aurendor himself has stopped time throughout the universe?" Mitsuki asked.

"Yes, he has given me the ability to completely freeze time for now. This way, with time out of the way, we can learn much more about the fourth dimension."

Mitsuki looked at his teacher in awe. He always had a high regard for the Principal, the man who helped him and his sister long ago, but now, he seemed quite formidable, and his system notification even made it more evident.

[You are now in the presence of one with a celestial title: Heaven's Butler]

The air around Kanazuma now looked like it was cracking into small shards of glass that hovered around him. His wings appeared, shielding his sides from the glass like shards. Even though Mitsuki could see him, he could not sense him at all. He tried using his system, but it was the same.

[ ]

[ ]

"Damn.. I truly can't sense you at all."

"Exactly. I am now trying to assimilate my mana into the fourth dimension, since my physical body or my soul can't go in there. I am using my wings to shield me from the shards because they can be quite deadly sharp at times, and when assimilating your mana into the fourth dimension, you are quite vulnerable."

"I see."

And once more, the same as back in the days, Mitsuki sat down and waited for his teacher to start the lesson;

A lesson which led to an unexpected encounter.
