Change of POV: 3rd POV
Alex is scared..
Oh, don't get her wrong, her illusion worked nicely, she is now in her dedicated classroom for 3-B Class on second floor, it's 7: 50 too, 10 more minutes and class shall start. History class to be exact.
But that is not reason why she is scared no..
Yesterday, after she uttered 'Michael's name', [God's System] warned her, warned her of danger she is doing by uttering a name of a powerful being, whose face you know and if you utter it with power, like Alex did, by laws and concept of DXD universe it would alert that being.
In another worlds, Michael got her exact location, her apartment and city where she is from the moment she uttered his name, even when he was realms away in Heaven..
And it happened yesterday.
Flashback-Yesterday.
Alex exited her own apartment as she continued walking downstairs, [God's System] just warned her.
'I can't believe it! You could have warned me before hand!' She complained in her heart as she continued walking, mind she is still 'using her Illusion form as Proto Arthur'. It would be weird to every single inhabitant of this Apartment building to see a woman they never saw in the building.
So just in case, she used her Illusion, she is going to experiment with it, by eating..
Don't ask.
Screen appeared in her vision, the usual golden one.
[ [User] has been pre-occupied with training, it didn't cross my processors that 0,00001 chance of [User] uttering any Supernatural's creatures name with power comparable to Gods would happen. But at least you did not utter Azazel's name...]
Alex paled in comparison.
She just exited her apartment building, and took a breath of fresh air for first time in the two days since she was 'transmigrated'.
'So what do you think Michael will do? Any ideas?' She questioned [God's System] as she looked at left and right, before crossing the street first. From 'Auto-Pilot's ' names, she can find an Ice-Cream shop just down the street.
Screen Shifted.
[Nothing much, Michael has recognized you as 'God of the Bible's reincarnation' and is most likely going to investigate you yourself by stalking you first and asses your personality, and then he might deem it worthy to approach you.]
Alex would have paled even further if she could have.
Screen shifted once more.
[Since [User] is still in-experienced with powers, and has Mid-High-Class being control, it's very much advisable that [User] does not utter any name of any 'people with faces [User] remembers' who are comparable to Seraph-Class and beyond]
Alex sighed, she just turned the street and...
'BUMP!
She was meet by someone's neck, as that person fell in front of her on cold ground.
She bumped into someone!
"Ah! I apologize-' Her apology got struck in her throat once she saw who it was. Man was head taller than her, and 'Proto Arthur' and 'Lancer Artoria' are same height here, 171 cm on paper, and Illusion is the same height anyway.
Then the person Alex bumped into is head taller than her, so close to 190+cm.
But height is not the reason her apology stuck in her throat.
[God's System]'s screen appeared in front of Man's face, as the man in question stood up but smiled at Alex's way.
[Oh~ I didn't he would be this direct. It's not like him, maybe his happiness clouded his judgement?]
The man who stood up from ground after bumping into Alex first dusted off his shirt. Man appears to be in his early twenties, he is wearing short sleeve black shirt, and black pants with black sneakers.
All black?
But the most catching features would be his hair and eyes. A long blonde hair and emerald eyes, if you look at those two features and not 'appearing to be' age gap, they could be related.
But..
This young man, no this 'entity' in front of Alex is none other than current leader of Heaven, one of the Four Great Seraph, the Seraph Michael himself!
' Did I just got spawn-camped?' Alex couldn't help but blink owlishly at the man in front of her, just deep in thoughts for second or two.
But [God's System] replied by manifesting another screen in front of her vision.
[It seems so, you literally got Spawn-Camped.] Almost sarcastic tone to 'supposed System that only works as connection between [Holy-System] and Sacred-Gear System] and as an instructor.
Incredible, is it?
But what Alex forgot to notice was, that Michael was the one who fell on the ground despite Alex being one who bumped into him. It shows the difference between Seraph-Class and God-King Class. Even untrained God-King Class being.
"Ah I sincerely apologize! I'm in hurry sir!" She apologized once more, before she tried to step-away from him and pass him.
Key word, tried.
Just when she passed him, her left wrist was caught in soft grip. Causing her to stop and for her eyes to immediately follow her hand where her wrist is caught.
Only to see 'her wrist glitching out' as pixels tried to cover the illusion, all meanwhile Michael cast a smile, self-assuring smile her away but not batting an eye towards 'her wrist'.
But he must have noticed, at least that's what Alex though.
"It's actually my fault, but let me repay you." Michael's soft tone spoke before pausing and starting once again." I know a good coffee back down, do you have free time for a drink or two?" He questioned, his eyes appear to be.. searching.. for something?
Alex doesn't know, but what does know is that she wants to escape.
"Ah no, there is no need! I'm rather in hurry.." She added, but as she tried to break free from his hand, she noticed it. She tried but could not, he tightened his grip on her hand. Not enough to hurt her but obviously enough that she could not shake him off easily.
And yet, her physical strength is way above his probably simply due to Classes. And yet..
She glanced at the street, she noticed how people stopped doing their own business and started paying attention towards them.
She will go with him, he shouldn't try anything right?
He is Angel after all...
She sighed, but [God's System] re-assured her.
[Don't worry [User] while Michael might be known as Butcher of Heaven and Extreminator of hundreds thousands of Devils, he is still just a nice guy! He wouldn't hurt a hair on your head!]
That's not re-assuring at all! F##ker!
"I see, then lead the way. But just one drink and I have to got." Alex replied, and Michael 'somehow sensing that it was not a lie' released his grip on her wrist, thus finally causing 'Illusion to fit into place' once again.
Michael nodded befroe motioned at the street where Alex just came from. " I know one brilliant cafe back down two streets away, it's unfortunately one of the most popular ones and just newly opened." He hastily added, please follow me."
Alex at that simply sighed and followed. Even though she could run now and try to escape, try is a big word here. She is talking about an Angel capable of killing Gods, she doesn't think that with her current understanding of her powers she would be able to escape.
And if she released every single drop of her Magical Power it could potentially have huge consequences to the world, and she right doesn't need Shinto Pantheon on her back or to be guilty for killing thousands in Kuoh just because she released her power.
Who knows what could happen.
So she kept quiet, her guard on as she followed Michael one meter behind him. But Michael wasn't having it, so with his smile on his face he attempted to strike a conversation with 'Reincarnation of his father who just so happens to become a woman upon getting his Father's powers'.
A destiny maybe? Who knew he would have a Mother or Sister right now.
"I should introduce myself first, I'm Michael Skyfall, I come from United Kingdom for a vacation, may I conclude that your situation is similar?" Michael spoke in fluent Japanese this whole time, along with Alex too.
Alex seeing this that it's a simple information gathering decided to indulge with Michael's whims, after all what is the point of hiding anything like her name from him when he could learn it from anywhere with big amount of resources that Heaven has?
"I'm Alex Celestia, and no, I'm not here vacation instead i'm here for education right now since my family passed away." Alex just answered simply, but she noticed that Michael suddenly stopped before turning around to meet her eyes.
"Ah I apologize to bring old memories back. I truly apologize, it was not my intent." Apologized Michael before shaking his head as they resumed their walk.
"I don't mind, it's not as if you could have known to begin with." Replied Alex, rest of their 'walk' remained silence, they walked for what felt like 5-10 minutes once they found themselves in front of a coffee building.
[Cat's Coffee!]
A literal billboard with words [Cat's Coffee!] engraved on it spelled, but both Alex and Michael could see that coffee is full of people, from children, teens and older people too, all through the windows.
But Michael immediately located a free table before both of them entered the cafe.
"This way." Added Michael before he moved towards the free table, Alex once more sighing before following him.
They bot sat in front of each other, both Alex and Michael respectively took Menus available on Menu.
"Order anything you want, I'll pay." Spoke Michael before adding quietly that no one would be able to hear as he covered his mouth with Menu. "That's the least I can do right now..."
Alex eyes moved towards him. " Did you say something?" She frowned.
Michael sheepishly rubbed his head before replying. " Ah, I'll pay for it so don't feel constrained and order anything you want."
Alex furrowed her eyebrows at him before immediately calling for a waitress.
And oh..
No wonder so many people are in this cafe..
Waitress came up to them, wearing a maid uniform.
Maid uniform with Cat ears.
Those cat ears might even be real considering that this maid is none other than Koneko Toujou. She, with her perfect poker face came up to them, wearing maid uniform with white cat airs and holding a plate close to her stomach.
Her eyebrows raised as she noticed Alex, of course why wouldn't they. Alex reputation in Kuoh Academy is similar to that of Kiba Yuuto, one is openly known as Prince of Kuoh for his good looks and open personality.
And other is known as Quiet Prince since 'he' almost never talks to anyone, doesn't approaches any one, doesn't try to create connections nor has any friend in Kuoh despite being student for a year and a month.
"What would you look? Mr.Celestia and Mr?" She asked, beside her eyebrows her entire expression is complete and utter lack of any emotion.
It goes without a say that Michael must have noticed that she is a Devil by now.
"I would like one chocolate ice-cream." Replied Alex as she put the menu down on the table.
Koneko nodded before moving her gaze to unfamiliar young beside Alex. She couldn't help but think. 'Could this man be a close relative to Celestia-Senpai? They do look-a-like too much for it to be a coincidence.'
"I would like vanilla ice-cream too." Michael smiled at reincarnated Devil in front of him. He knew that Devil was working on this cafe from the beginning. After all it's rather easy to notice a Low-Class Devil once they are not hiding their Magical Power at all.
FlashBack-End
Back to Present!
And that's why Alex is grumpy this whole day. Not only has she fully gained Michael's attention, had gone 'for Ice-Cream with him', talked with him for a while before he left.
But she was also noticed by Koneko, who most likely does not know how Michael looks like, but she can certainly describe him to Rias, but I hardly think so.
Both of us hided our Magical Powers splendidly, so outside of her 'Devil's Instincts' telling her to run or something, Alex should not be found out.
But then Alex suddenly shivered, because of a glare behind her, a glare or stare belonging to none other than famous 'Aika Kiryuu'.
Aika Kiryuu is like female combination of Issei and Motohama.
She is both a pervert girl like Issei with Motohama's amazing Appraising Skills. She can deduce women's all three sizes with almost perfect percentage! Same with guy's attribute down there too.
Then Alex's head moved towards the front desks in the classroom, occupied by Issei in the front, Asia behind him. And moth Motohama and Matsuda in the next row, close enough so they can talk with each other.
"Oh~ 13cm when not aroused, impressive~" Voice behind Alex spoke, if Alex had drunk something right now she would have spat it!
What is wrong with this girl!
