Rising To Grand Garden

"What do you want there?" Alexis asks.

"I just want to discuss something with him." Matt says.

Arriving in the hallway, the two go to the headmaster's office.

"I've had such a strong urge for blood since you gave me my strength." He says.

"That's normal, demons love the smell of blood, all negative thoughts and feelings." She says.

"That's annoying." He says.

"You will get used to it." She says.

"I hope I don't kill anyone because of that." He says.

"That wouldn't be bad." She says with a scary smile.

"If I wouldn't know you're were a demon, I'd be scared now." He says.

Alexis starts to laugh heartily.

"You are so cute and innocent." She says.

"What? Until a few days ago I was still a human and lived in another world where this is not said so casually by normal people." He says.

"You still have to learn a lot," she says.

"Okay, more importantly, can you train with me?" He asks.

"Sure, if that's all." She says.

Slowly they reached the secretory.

Matt extends his right arm and knocks on the door, then opens the door and both enter.

Matt realized that Ms. Moon wasn't on her place. Matt went straight to Roy's office. Without knocking, he opened the door and went inside.

"I expected you." Roy says.

"I am not surprised." Matt says.

"You certainly want to complain about the meeting?" Roy asks.

"Actually, yes, but that has changed, I realized that you planned it?" Matt asks a question.

"Indeed, it has resulted in your powers awakening, everything as planned." Roy says.

"And what are you going to do next?" Matt asks.

"Now you can take part in the rank fights of the schools, where you can gain combat experience." Roy replies.

"Okay and after that?" Matt asks.

"Let yourself be surprised." Roy replies.

"Drenched as ever, Roy." Alexis says.

"I didn't know you were in this World, not seen for a long time, you seem to be younger than you used to." Roy says.

"No, I just arrived, so you've been here for centuries." Alexis says.

Matt raised his left eyebrow and shook his head.

"I'm not surprised anymore." Matt mumbled.

"He's also a demon, and he was a follower of your parents in the Underworld War 16 years ago, then disappeared without reason." Alexis says.

"I have to disappoint you, it was at the behest of the master and the mistress. My command was to create a place where he can return and where he can learn how the worlds work. "Roy says.

"Anything else I should know?" Matt says.

"Yes, Matt, once your powers have awakened, I should report to your parents." Roy says.

"No, better not, wait with it." Matt says.

"Why, they would send someone to get you." Roy says.

"What am I supposed to do there then ... Didn't you tell me to learn how the worlds work?" Matt says.

"Yeah, of course, but they want to see you, because it's been fifteen years since your parents saw you in person." Roy says.

"You're right." Matt says.

"So I'll contact your parents, would you like to talk to them right now?" Roy says.

"No, I'll go home for today, tell my teacher." Matt says and leaves Roy's office.

Back in the hall, Matt and Alexis make their way home. The two talk on the way.

"What should I do now? How should I counter my parents?" Matt asks.

"Do as you did when you met your human parents, be happy." Alexis says and smiles.

"Somehow I was looking forward to this day, but somehow not." He says.

"I don't know why you worry so much about it, your parents will be happy." She says.

"But what if not?" He asks.

"Don't break your head about it now, normally you don't think about such things." She answers.

As the two left the forest and turned the last corner to come home. Matt stops shocked, Alexis shortly stop after him. She turns to Matt

"What's up?" Alexis asks.

"I think I got lost ...." Matt answers.

At the place where the skyscr.a.p.er lives in is now unexpectedly a villa.

"That can't be true ..." Matt nags.

"I think that comes from Roy ..." Alexis says annoyed.

"What makes you think that?" He asks.

"Look who is waving there." She answers.

"crap .... what's he doing there." Matt says.

"He is following his old job." Alexis says.

"He was Butler?" Matt asks in surprise.

"Yes, he did almost everything in the castle." Alexis answers.

"Oh, my life is just turning into a bad movie, what's next, I'm a prince or something? Matt asks confused.

"No, no, you are the son of the aspirant to the throne of the demon king." Alexis says.

"That doesn't make it any better." Matt says.

"Come on, it's not so bad." Alexis says.

The two go to the entrance where they meet Roy. Roy bowed.

"Welcome home my Lord." Roy says.

"Why?" Matt asks.

"Command of your parents." Roy replies.

"Whatever." Matt says and shakes his head.

"See, your parents are worried about you." Alexis says.

Matt nods.

"Tomorrow someone will come to pick you up from the castle, I will prepare the luggage today." Roy says.

"You two will come with me." Matt says

"Of course." Roy says.

"Yes, I haven't been home for a long time." Alexis says.

"Before I forget it, since you have your powers now I would like to do a little test to know which rank you have." Roy says.

Roy grabs a diamond-shaped crystal from his suit pocket and hands it to Matt.

"Put both hands on the crystal and wait five seconds, after that you will direct as much energy into the crystal as you can, finally show me which color it has." Roy explains.

As Matt explained, he puts the crystal in his hands, waits five seconds, and then directs his energy into the crystal. The crystals color turned into a bright gold.

Unfortunately, your skills are not up to it, but luckily we go back to the underworld, where you get some experience." Roy says.
