Chapter 47 - Promotion and Trouble

"I have to go back now" Ulquiorra said to Azazel who was standing in front of him.

"I see, I will call once we go back to Kuoh town" Azazel nodded in understanding.

Ulquiorra nodded before he turned around and opened a garganta that lead to Sitri household. Since he just came here in underworld he might as well visit Serafall.

Ulquiorra landed in the gate of the huge mansion. He walked straight inside. The guards and other servants didn't stop him as they know who is he, the only peerage member of Serafall Leviathan.

He arrived in front of the door and he directly opened it. A soon as he enter inside a figure flashed and it crashed into his body.

"Umuu.. I miss you Ulqi-tan!" Serafall said as she hugged Ulquiorra tightly. "Also congratulations for your promotion."

Serafall separate from him and she started to complained, "I wanted to go there and support you but my work hinder me."

She looked at him and asked, "How is So-tan?"

"She's doing fine" Ulquiorra replied to her.

"I need to go back now Serafall-sama" Ulquiorra said to her.

"Mou~ Ulqi-tan you always leave me here alone." Serafall puffed up her cheeks.

"Don't worry Serafall-sama, I will bring Sona next time." Ulquiorra said to her.

"Really?!" Serafall eyes sparkled.

"Yes" Ulquiorra nodded.

"Yay! It's a promise! don't you dare to forget it!" Serafall said while jumping excitedly.

"I'll be going now" Ulquiorra said.

...

"Achooo!!" Sona sneezed while doing her paper works.

"What's wrong, president?" Tsubaki asked in a worried tone.

"It's nothing, someone must be talking about me" Sona said. What she didn't know that Ulquiorra just sold her to her sister.

...

"Good job on your test, cheers!" Azazel gulp his drinks after saying that.

Issei, Akeno, Kiba, and Ravel went to the hotel after they finished their examination. They were given a relief from the fatigue of the examination at the restaurant they reserved. At the restaurant, everyone in the Occult Research Club except Gasper and Rosswiesse gathered around the table. Everyone already started eating food.

"Honestly, I became nervous when I heard Issei matched up against Ulquiorra in practical test." Azazel said as he drink another cup of wine.

"Issei, you did good job there holding your own against Ulquiorra." Rias said.

"So how was it?" Azazel asked.

"Honestly it was overwhelming. He applies pressure to me even though I'm the one who always initiate an attack. He only respond by countering me. It's frustrating! He didn't even use his release form!" Issei said as he lowered his head while clenching his fist.

"You say! That Ulquiorra toyed Loki in his release form. You still wasn't at the level where you could fight Loki and you wish for him to get serious at you. You will die like that, you know?" Azazel said.

"Don't worry, you still have a lot of room for growth. Just train harder even more harder like you usually do" Azazel patted his shoulder.

At the corner of the restaurant, there is Ophis who is staring at Issei. She was stuffing her mouth with pasta.

Is the owner of the restaurant found that she is the boss of the terrorist, serious things will happen.

Kuroka and Le Fay and eating sweets at the corner too. Fenrir isn't showing itself, it's probably hiding behind Le Fay. It is forbidden to bring pet inside the hotel.

Kuroka is an exiled-devil who is on the wanted list in the underworld, so shw hides her cat ears and tail while wearing a simiral robe to the one worn by Le Fay. Though the color is different. She is also wearing sunglasses. She is also changing the Ki flow, so people who can normally sense them won't notice them and as a result they won't be caught that easily. She's also using it on Ley Fay and Ophis, and that is the reason why they aren't viewed as suspicious people.

"Where is Ulquiorra?" Ophis asked.

Azazel heard her question answered her, "He went back to human world first, we will see him after we go back there."

"I see" Ophis nodded.

Suddenly an uncomfortable feeling hit Azazel. He felt a nasty feeling all over his body. The atmosphere change immediately, and he immediately felt a sensation that he was transported to a different place even though the scenery around him was exactly the same.

There was a shadow move towards them. It's Kuroka. She has her cat ears and tails out, and her ears are twitching. Her clothes has changed to her usual black kimono.

She has a sarcastic smile on her face. "Looks like Vali was ignored, nya. I didn't think they would seize this opportunity when Ulquiorra was away."
