Chapter 16: 16. School
1 Month Later...
.....
" Baby listen to the teacher and don't make trouble okay~ and try to make a lot of friends~ " Venelana said dotingly as she checked Vivian's uniform to make sure he was dressed properly.
" Um " Vivian nodded his head obediently as he showed a comfortable expression at his mother's caresses.
Venelana smiled and gave a soft kiss on his forehead. Over the past month, they were able to teach him how to speak and it was coming along nicely. He could speak a few more words and converse a little bit better.
Thus she was relieved about sending her little baby to school, he wouldn't be an oddball who could only say a few words. Although it wasn't very unusual for children to learn to speak at older ages, but that was a rare case and she didn't want other kids to make fun of Vivian as she knew he would bash their faces in kids or not.
Tiamat might be proud of him but she definitely didn't want her child to be a barbarian, even if he is a child he has the pride of a Lucifer and a Dragon. Even though he acted normally in front of them, his family, she knew this pride was etched into his existence.
Kuroka told her one of the reasons why the researchers feared working with him was due to his unpredictability. It was like he was bipolar, one moment he could be the kindest angel but the next moment he would be an unfeeling devil.
Venelana remembered seeing records about Project Irregular eliminating a group of researchers just because they tried to tamper with his 'possessions'. When Venelana read that at that time she didn't quite get it she just thought they tried to take something from the mindless beast that was Project Irregular.
But now she looking at her cute little baby, she couldn't attribute anything harmful about him. How can her baby be a mindless killing machine? But she also understood they might have tried to take his toys which were given to him by Kuroka, which he considered precious.
She remembered seeing the simple crude toys in his cell, and remembering that scene made her heart constrict once again. She understood how much importance Vivian placed on Kuroka thus she didn't hesitate to help out Kuroka.
All criminal charges against Kuroka have been levied and Nabarius house has been declared as criminals for experimenting on devils and reincarnated devils.
This caused widespread public outrage among the low-class devils and reincarnated devils. The new Satans had to work their asses off to calm all of them down.
The Great King Faction were being boiled alive by everyone for supporting such a house, in the end, Zekram himself issued a public apology statement saying they knew nothing of Nabarius houses nefarious deeds.
Although a bit disgruntled the public swallowed their anger and accepted it. Thus Zekram Bael and his Great King Faction had to take a big 'L' this time but the ' Great King ' Zekram didn't dare to jump around this time because he knew if he overstepped his bounds he wouldn't be taking an 'L' but an 'F'.
He may be strong, a genuine High Satan Class powerhouse but in front of Sirzechs Lucifer he was but an ant.
He was just a rat who was opportune enough to capitalize on the influence of his dead master to become a prominent figure in devil society.
After accomplishing all of that and making the Bael house one of the biggest names in devil society just after the Lucifer name, Zekram wasn't ready to die, at least not yet.
Not until he had immortalized his name in the hearts of all devils, his position being much higher than his former master Lucifer.
Zekram may not know it but the death of a woman he considered insignificant, just a mere maid would be the cause of his downfall...
.....
Kuroka also gazed at Vivian with a fond smile as his presence was able to diminish some of the gloom in her life this past month.
Kuroka was heartbroken when Shirone refused to meet her when she requested to see her.
Kuroka understood Shirone might have been scarred by the massacre she committed, and to be honest she hadn't planned for Shirone to see it.
She was planning to take Shirone and escape but after seeing her killing their former master's peerage and family, her little sister was scared of her and was afraid to even come near her.
Kuroka in the end felt it was better for her to not take her sister with her because she was sure she would be hunted down and if Shirone hated her and was scared of her, then she would be seen as a victim and would be spared.
She also placed her bets on the New Satans and prayed they were not scum like the old decrepit devils.
And she luckily won the gamble as her little sister was brought under the care of the Gremory family and the protection of Satan Lucifer himself.
But that was before, now she was a free woman who didn't have to worry about being hunted down and killed.
Thus she naturally wished to reunite with her sister, so when her request to meet up got denied and she got called a bad sister by the Gremory imp, Kuroka felt genuinely vengeful, never in her life did she want to smack the shit out of somebody so much, especially a 5-year-old kid.
Although she understood, it still hurt when her sister saw her as a monster, Kuroka was not a happy kitty but a sad kitty...
