Chapter 29: Excalibur (2)
<Mc POV>
"???, What in tarnation is this character!?" I looked at the floating small black ball with two small appendages from Its head.
"Can you speak at least?" I watch it circling.
The ball shakes around.
"Well, at least you're smart..." I looked at it as if it seemed happy.
"Can you do something cool?" I asked the ball.
Hearing what I said, the circle splits into two.
"So you can split?" The now two black balls, split even into more and more balls until it reached around 40 balls as they floated around the basement.
"Da fuck?!?" I was amazed at the rate speed of how it split, it took less than half of a second it split into different parts. It was even hard for me to follow all of the splitting process.
"Can you only do splitting?" I curiously asked, if all it does is split in a way it was a good way to annoy enemies as this thing doesn't even have a single hint of aura.
Hearing my question all of its fellow balls retracted back into one as it shook, denying my question.
Then the thing created a spike out of its ball body.
"..." A spike? I moved closer to it and tried to see if it was sharp enough to pierce my hand.
"Yup, it's sharp..." I pulled my bleeding hand back as if I had been punctured by a porcupine.
'If this thing is very fast and could create multiple of itself this thing might be really strong! The question is... Is it resilient?' I wondered if it's really easy to kill.
"Can you create a double of yourself, so I can test the durability?" to which the thing splits.
I used around 20% of my strength in my first punch, but it remained unmoving. I then proceeded to use 100% as 20% wasn't even enough to move it. And to my surprise, it moved a little, but it looked like it didn't do any damage.
"Wow, you're pretty tough." My punches were no joke, as I could kill a middle-class devil in one punch.
"Let's proceed to testing no 2. Elemental effects." I used my lightning abilities to smite it.
'Tonitru Iudicium' I punched, as it remained unfaced with my power.
"Yo? You my friend might be my toughest test subject." As the ball cheered.
"Can you change into any form?" Seeing that it can form a spike.
The ball changed its shape into a shirt.
Seeing that, My wild mind was acting up once again. This ball was similar to a slime.
'It can be my cool Armour outfit!'
"Can you coat into my clothes?" I asked excitedly.
The ball then came and fused into my clothes turning it into black.
"Cool!"
'With this might be my first trusty partner. It can change into any form of clothes, but I feel uncomfortable not wearing anything... So it might be best to just let this fuse with my clothes.'
"By the way. Do you have a name?" The ball changed into an O-shape.
"???, What?" I sound confused as I don't know ball language.
The ball then split and formed letters.
"So you literally. 'The Circle'." Wow, what a creative name... I also wondered what character is this from.
(A/N: It's "The Circle" from God of Highschool)

<Third PoV>
Sona and Tsubaki were walking along, as they monitored the campus gate. Only to find white-robed individuals standing in front of the gate.
The two robe individuals eyed Sona and Tsubaki.
The robe people were none other than Xenovia and Irina of course.
"President. They're exorcist." Tsubaki spoke as she felt a holy aura radiating from them.
"I know... What do they want from us?" Sona felt worried, as a big problem might arise in this area.
The exorcist duo and Sona continued to eye each other like stand users who were fighting secretly in public. The passersby were also confused by the tense situation not long before, Tsubaki told them to. "Go on you all are going to be late!" she warned as she might punish tardiness.
Sona approached the exorcist.
"Is there something you need?" Sona asks as she composed herself.
"We would like to have a meeting with you and the other princess as well, as this is an urgent matter," Xenovia replied as nicely as she could.
"Alright, let's meet tomorrow, I'll talk about it with the other one." Sona wanted to talk to Rias about this first.
"Understood..." Xenovia and Irina left silently.
"What do you think President? Do they come in peace?" Tsubaki curiously ask, as Sona's peerage also joined in.
"Not sure," Sona replied, as she and Tsubaki moved towards the ORC room where Rias usually hangs out.
.
"President(Rias), I bought some guests," Akeno stated as Sona and Tsubaki entered.
"The student council..." Issei, suddenly felt worried.
"Is there something wrong Sona?" Rias asked ignorantly.
"Right, we have something urgent to discuss with you, Rias. Would you mind coming to my house for a bit please?" Sona asks before adding.
"This isn't something you're going to discuss in front of other people trust me." Sona was worried that Rias' peerage also heard it, especially Kiba who has resentment towards anything that has any correlation to the holy swords.
"You make it sound like we're in a very complicated situation," Rias states.
"Because it is," Sona answered flatly while fixing her glasses.
.....
Rias and Sona along with their Queen, were now in the bath house owned personally by Sona.
"Did you two regularly come in here often?" Akeno asked as she felt relaxed in the atmosphere inside.
"Yes, Me and Rias used to come here quite a lot, at that time we would talk about our complaints at each other."
"I didn't know you two were that close to each other, all I knew was that you were childhood friends," Akeno said.
"This place was gifted by my sister, solely for my personal use."
"This place is connected specifically to Sona, as it would only be open when Sona is around."
"Well, I guess this place would be great for talking about secrets then huh?" Akeno was amused at the idea.
"Back to the main point here, what exactly do you want to discuss this time?" Rias asked curiously, as the matter seemed like a big deal.
"This morning President and I came in contact with two people from the church" Tsubaki explained.
"Did they tell you what they wanted?" Rias asks.
"Well they wanted to talk with the both of us and it was urgent."
"What are they up to this time? To go to such length to speak with us, devils." Rias questions.
"There is no possible reason for them to. Except to stir trouble in town... Well either way I've accepted their request already. And I have already informed them about your whereabouts, and they will be visiting you tomorrow."." Sona stated.
"What?" Rias was confused at why she, as Sona should know that one of her peers doesn't like anyone who has a connection with the church.
"There is also another thing you need to be aware of as well. Not only they were members of the church, but the two of them were also carrying holy swords..." Sona said as she saw this perfect chance for Rias' knight to hopefully solve his problem.
.....
Issei alone who was on his way home suddenly felt chills, as he quickened his pace toward his home, worried that something might happen to his parents.
Miki Hyoudou, Issei's mother who was telling embarrassing stories of Issei to Irina and Xenovia. Suddenly heard a scream from the door.
"Mom!" Issei screamed.
"Oh, there he is~," Miki said as Issei entered the room.
'Are they the reason I got chills?' Issei felt unconformable around Irina and Zenovia.
"Hehe, it's been a while hasn't it Issei?" Irina waved at Issei.
"Who are you?" Issei looked confused as he didn't remember being friends with a hot girl.
"It's Irina Shido!" Miki introduced Irina as she felt sad to be forgotten.
"Wait you're a girl all along?" Issei was shocked as he thought that Irina was a dude, as she was much more manly than him back then.
"I know you were going to say that and mistake her for being a man. But look at her now! She has become a very gorgeous lady." Miki praised Irina's beauty.
"For that, you should apologize to her Issei. She might become sad to be forgotten after all." Miki apprehended her son.
"Im-" Issei was about to apologize.
"No no, it's fine. It was understandable after all as I always dressed up like a boy back then." Irina stopped Issei from apologizing as she was also at fault.
"How about we catch up on each other." Irina changed the topic of conversation because she didn't want the reunion to be sad or depressing.
Meanwhile, Xenovia sighed, feeling uncertain about what to do next as they were going to do more important things tomorrow.
