My Angelic System

While Leo was busy thinking about Kye and his real identity, something similar happened somewhere else.

Elisa, who had just finished her call with the angel's council was dumbfounded as well.

She was called by the council unexpectedly, and what was even more surprising was that they asked her about Kye.

She naturally told them what she knew about him, and the council asked her to treat him well and do whatever it takes to put him at ease. She of course asked them what was the reason for this, but the council didn't answer her and just ended the call with a warning.

"If Kye Vermillion isn't happy, you'll be the one facing the consequences!" This sentence was still playing inside her head.

She didn't understand how someone as weak as him could be in high regard to the council and their old members.

There was no record of the council ever asking an agent such a thing, so it only means that it came from someone even higher than those who were part of the council.

"Seriously, who are you, Kye?" Elisa and Leo told to themselves at the same time even though they weren't in the same room.

***

The next morning, Kye, Ven, Leo, and Elisa all gathered in the same training room as yesterday.

"Kye, I have something to tell you..." Leo said as he looked down.

"Me too, can you please hear me out?" Elisa looked down as well.

"Yeah? What's up? Why are you looking down like this?" Kye tilted his head and Ven observed the situation from behind

Leo and Elisa looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with anger when they were looking at each other, but they only shrugged off this feeling since they had something more important to take care of.

"Since I asked first, let me speak first, your high... I mean Kye."

"Sure?" Kye stopped for a moment when Leo changed his words in the middle of his sentence but decided to forget about it. It could as well just be slippery.

"I would like to apologize for yesterday. My behavior wasn't appropriate, and I promise that I'll do my best to assist you."

"Argh, you were faster than me..." Elisa sighed. "I too would like to apologize, Kye. You put so much effort into trying to form a bond between us, but I just messed up everything."

Kye looked at them without saying anything, making both of them tense up. Leo was scared because he thought he had said something he shouldn't have said to his new highness, while Elisa was scared because of the council and Leo's reaction.

Demons had a lot of pride, and they rarely bowed to someone else. They only do so to someone stronger than them or the princes or king of the demon realm. So seeing him like this made her worry to no end.

"Why are you only apologizing to him?" Ven chimed in. "I was also bothered, you know."

"Yeah, I'm sorry," Elisa said, quickly followed by Leo. Ven was one of Kye's closest friends. So they both thought that they needed to be kind to him as well if they wanted to get closer to Kye.

"It's okay guys. Thank you for apologizing. And let's just stop messing around from now on, okay?" Kye said with a smile, which both of them answered in kind.

Ven looked at both of them suspiciously but only put the matter aside for now. Their behavior change was way too sudden to be normal. And Ven was sure that Kye wasn't using his energy to befriend them. So the situation only looked suspicious to him.

"Then shall we begin?" Kye asked as everyone nodded their head in agreement.

Unlike yesterday, the training was a lot easier. Kye and Ven improved their synchronization a bit, while Leo and Sylvia stopped quarreling about trivial matters.

It was clear that there was still a lot of tension between them, but they mostly kept everything inside for group harmony.

Or so Kye thought.

Neither Elisa nor Leo cared about the group. They just wanted to appear good to Kye to know why he was so special. Elisa still didn't understand why Kye needed to be treated well. As for Leo, he had a hard time believing that Kye was his highness' son. It still didn't make sense that a demon could be an angel. And the other way around as well.

Just thinking about it made his head spin, so he just decided to do as Lucifer told him to do. He will try his best to be kind to Kye and enter his inner circle to protect him if necessary.

Though, he naturally felt like it would be hard when he felt like his back was being pierced by to pair of eyes that belong to Ven.

Elisa felt the same as well and couldn't help but be surprised at the amount of pressure a lowly human could exert.

The more they were staying among this lowly race, the more they felt strange and that something was wrong with them. They were far stronger than what both races thought and needed to know how it was possible. Surely it couldn't only be because of those abilities, right?

So getting closer to Kye just added to their first mission. The mission that made them go to the military was to find the truth about humans.

"Okay guys, I think we did well for today." Kye clapped his hand and smiled as everyone dropped to the ground, exhausted.

"Do we have to train that much?" Elisa asked. They had trained since this morning without a single pause. And it was now 4 p.m.

"I'm hungryyyyy~," Leo said, dragging his words

"Then let's go to a restaurant. We need to eat if we want to stay in top condition for the exam, after all."

'But it's not that type of hunger...' Leo thought before shaking his head to dismiss those impure thoughts.

'He knows that there's no need for us to eat, so why does he want to eat?' Elisa had a strange look on her face but decided to tag along to try and get closer to Kye. The same applied to Leo.
