Chapter 7 - Engagement party

Sona changed her school uniform to a formal dress as she need to attend the engagement party. The engagement party will be held this afternoon and she with her peerage were invited.

She was preparing to leave when she saw Ulquiorra.

He was standing beside the window again.

"What are you looking at?" Sona approach him and asked. Even though she knew that he was looking at the servants she still ask.

Ulquiorra turned his head and looked at Sona who was standing beside him.

"...people" Ulquiorra said before he turned his head and continue to observe the servants.

She looked at him who was busy observing the servants in the garden.

"Do you always watch them?" Sona asked. She didn't know what to say so she just asked him this question.

Ulquiorra nodded in response to her.

Sona was lost of words. She didn't know how to continue the conversation. Ulquiorra was really a kind of guy that rarely talks. He only talk when someone initiate a conversation to him.

Something came to her mind. She opened her mouth and said, "Do you want to come with me?"

Ulquiorra looked at her but he didn't answer her question. He instead said, "I'm going to ask Serafall-sama"

...

Ulquiorra followed Tsubaki in a room. She led him in a room to pick up a formal clothes he was going to wear in the party.

When Ulquiorra came out of the room, he was wearing a black coat pairing a white long sleeve with a black necktie.

Tsubaki nodded at him when she saw his looks. Then she led him outside the mansion where Sona was waiting for them.

"You look good" Sona said to him after she saw his new looks.

"Let's go" She said as she enter a black car.

Ulquiorra followed suit and sat beside her.

...

They arrived at the huge mansion. Sona and the rest got out of the car and went inside the mansion.

"Hmm?!" Ulquiorra saw Issei challenging Riser in a fight.

"He really don't give up. It reminds me of someone... " Ulquiorra said while looking at Issei.

Sirzechs interfere and said that the two will have a duel.

The two fought in an alternate space. There's no one in the space except the two of them. Issei sacrificed his arm to the dragon inside him just to use balance breaker. But balance breaker wasn't enough to defeat Riser. He used all sorts of skills and techniques and in the end he managed to win.

Ulquiorra was surprised when he saw that Issei sacrifice his arm in this battle.

The party was over now that the bride was gone. Issei took Rias out of the party after he won the battle.

"That's it" Ulquiorra muttered. He slowly turned around and was ready to leave but someone called his name.

"Cifer" Ulquiorra turned around and saw Sirzechs walking towards him. He knew that this guy was one of the four devil kings like Serafall. This guy was also a friend of Serafall. He only knew that when Sirzechs visited Serafall last time to congratulate her for getting a member of her peerage.

"I didn't think that you would come here in this place." Sirzechs said with a smile.

"Sona took me here" Ulquiorra gave a simple reply.

"Have you gotten accustomed living here in underworld?" Sirzechs asked.

"Yes" Ulquiorra gave him a simple plain answer.

Sirzechs was speechless as he didn't know how to continue the conversation. He sighed in his mind. This guy was really a man who don't talk much.

"Say hello to Serafall for me" In the end he could only end this conversation. Sirzechs smile bitterly in his mind.

"I will" Ulquiorra nodded before he turned around and went beside Sona.

"What a strange guy" Sirzechs said in a low voice while looking at Ulquiorra who was standing quietly beside Sona.

...

Ulquiorra went back to Sitri mansion with Sona. As usual they were greeted by the lovely Serafall.

"Mou~ So-tan you don't have to be embarrassed in this" Serafall said while hugging Sona tightly in her arms. She pressed her cheeks to Sona's cheeks. "There's only three of us here"
