Chapter 19

"Because I have to look after two rather than one, I am the oldest among the twelve guardian succubi. How old do you think I am?" Mallory asked Arthur with her eyes curved in a slightly amused expression. "Around thirty?" Arthur replied weakly. Chuckling, she said, "I'm in my early three hundreds. I have three hearts and now with Sacra, we have four. According to Demon King Marbas once you two turn ten you'll truly begin becoming a demon!"

"Sacra means we have four?" Louis asked in a bewildered voice. "Yes, the two of you should eat two hearts each. Two of my hearts were blessed with my Lord Valefor's power, with the power of concealment. While my last heart is a normal succubus's heart, it'll most likely give you charm more than anything else. I made Sacra for you Louis, you eat his heart and you can use lightning along with your ice," a wild look replaced the calm that Mallory had normally shown.

Grabbing at Louis's arms she stared into his eyes, "You are my king!" Grabbing Arthur she continued, "The new kings to the lower world!"

Seeing the twins visibly flinch and look for ways out, Mallory quickly reeled in her excitement. "All of the guardians' lives were meant to be given to the new kings in accordance to the old kings. I will fulfill that duty by reinforcing your first hearts with my own. The start of your journey begins with our deaths, mine and Sacra's. I named him for the pure purpose of being a sacrifice after all."

"Do you two have any plans after I die?" Slowly shaking their heads the twins were having trouble with all the information that had been given to them. "Well, we can think about it for the next two months." Sinking back into her bed she closed her eyes again.

With her eyes still shut tight, she shooed the children away.

The two were quickly whisked away to the nobility reserved school. There they were called to the auditorium along with the rest of the class. There they could see Jack along with nine other middle-aged men and women whom they had frequently seen throughout their years on a stage with a podium.

In the audience, children from various grades were sitting down. Once their class had sat down in their designated seats an old man came from behind the stage, dressed in an old suit he quickly took to the stage and stood on the podium. Clearing his throat he started speaking, "Hello, students of the Nobility Academy. The reason I have gathered you here today, for the first time in several years, is due to a letter from the Empire. More specifically, the Imperial Academy."
