Bab 3: CHAPTER 2: LE PAPPILION NOIR ACADEMY
CRYSTALLE'S POV
in the evening..march 23 2027 at Cullen's mansion.
"tell me what you found about black butterfly." I said gravely as I sat in the window alcove and observed the pale crescent moon shining in the sky. If you look up to this point, you will notice the lovely tall oak trees lining up in each side, with a lavish fountain in the middle. The mansion was located at the top of the hills, where you can view the beautiful city of London, especially at night, the stars, the skyscrapers and buildings, even the lights of cars, busses, and everything. Simply looking out the window will also give you a peaceful feeling.
so I pour some wine on my glass as it touch by my pinkish lips and drink it.
"It's just plenty but It will gonna help you to locate them.. have you heard about the Le papillon noir Academy? its a boarding school owned by the black butterfly organization that only an elites, or daughter of mafias or some illegal organization can get in, in other words, this school is not covered by the queen and the government." I stare to him and frown, then he gave me a folder where the photo of the School was printed and its information was written.
'The founder of the Black Butterfly organization established the Le Papillon Noir Academy somewhere around May 2, 1897. According to rumors, the school was created especially for the people who would later become the founding members of the black butterfly organization; as a result, the only people who are permitted entry are mainly members of affluent and well-known families.
In order for the school to maintain its secrecy, the instructors, referred to as "scholars," and deans are a select group of seasoned, wealthy individuals who have graduated from prestigious institutions such as Harvard University, Sussex University, University of California, and High-Point University.'
the academy of the pappilion noir.. If I'm not mistaken, this is the location where the twins are studying to hone their skills together. However, despite the fact that they have enough experience to destroy an entire organization without my assistance, their uncle decided to enroll them anyway out of a sense of duty to "keep protecting yourself." As usual, auntie opposes sending her two sons to a risky school, but the twins were the ones who made that decision.
I stopped thinking when I heard devian's voice ask me, "le papillon noir academy.. this is where the twins are studying right? are we going to let them handle this thing?"
I five it some thought, if we let the twins handle this things, it might put them in danger. They might be able to destroy one organization, but that wouldn't be the same as destroying the black butterflies. heh, those damn butterflies really live up to their names; they draw attention to themselves, but when someone tries to capture them, they flee with their obnoxious fluttering wings, as if they are telling you that you're not worthy of their attention and that you are still too far away to reach them. At the same time, they are adept at escaping. to draw someone in by using their own charm.
although, butterflies also has a counterpart, and that is.. the rose.
Like a butterfly, a rose can entice people with its alluring presence, sweet scent, and stunning red petals. Eventually, the person will be unable to resist the rose's undying beauty, and if they try to pick her up in the garden, the thorn will fight to keep her safe at all costs.
Additionally, since we're talking about butterflies, they were drawn to lovely things as well. That was the beginning of my plan.
to attract the untouchable butterfly and let them approached us by themselves, with that, I'll use my thorns to prick every one of them, and that is none other than.. devian.
"no, we will go there on our own." I chuckle while sipping my wine.
devian give me a frowning look so I just give him a small grin, " although we will just observe them for now, so prepare all of our fake requirements, find some way to infiltrate in academy, and one more thing.. you were not allowed to move on them without my permission."
"yes my lady.. I'll gonna prepare it right away, for now.." I saw him stare to the glass of wine with a serious face, suddenly he took my glass while smiling to me sweetly, it's not a genuine smile but a sarcasm one which makes me annoyed somehow, especially when I heard his reply.
"this wine makes my nose twitched so please refrain not to drink a wine Infront of me."
"huh?! who the hell are you to talk back with me?"
"wine is bad for your health, my lady, at least take care that soul very well because it's very precious to me than any other humans out there." I couldn't help but to stare to devian because of that who's still giving me a serious face, suddenly, his expression turns into frivolous smile just like how he was, which make me curious and confused.
"that soul is my only way in order survive, after all."
I clicked my tongue when I realize what he meant to say, so in the end, he's just using me, seriously.. what a shameless demon.
"tsk. Just leave and take that wine."
"as you wish, my lady.." just as he open the double door, he stop walking first and look up to me, "by the way, please wear some decent clothes from now on, wearing a black lace transparent sleepwear dress while your legs were expose Infront of a man is like you're giving him a permission to touch you-!"
"Just fucking get out of here! you're so pervert!!" I didn't finish him up speaking instead I throw the small golden vase beside me to him but he manage to block it using the door, later on he open the door once more but this time, a mischievous smile form to his lips.
"then, good night." and he left.
"tsk. damn demon." I whispered, so I went Infront of the mirror and watch my own reflection.
Ash gray wavy hair, gray eyes, a black sensual robe, and a black lace nightgown that reaches my thigh, I also have a sharp nose, long eyelashes, excellent jaws, pinkish lips that make me feel seductive, and pale white skin. I don't want to admit but.. He is really telling the truth! Goddess, Why do you have to be that attractive, crystalle?!
"a demon huh?" I blurted out of nowhere and lie on the bed, I can't help but remember what happened six years ago.. I was in the middle of my despair that time, and was about to be killed by them when he suddenly appear Infront of me and offer me some help in one condition.. I should give my soul to him once I fulfill my wish, I didn't hesitate to accept his deal, all I know that time is I want to survive and kill all of the people who was there and then when I woke up my body has filled with their filthy blood. then a rescuer appeared, along with a young boy who have the same age as me and same situation, he's holding his wrist that have a wound wearing a black small tattered tailcoat, I thought that the demon whom I made a contract with did trick me, and I got survive on my own because of the god's help and mercy. but then.. I heard the young boy call me 'my lady' with a smirk on his innocent face, that's when I realize that it was him, the demon itself.
that's right... Even if the demon known as "devian" is only a young child like myself, the way he speaks sounds like a devil hunting some prey, and that still terrifies the living daylights out of me!
But that was also the time when my life changed, as if everything had been a dream. and that mystery youngster is to blame for everything. I was hired as the queen's underground assassin, our company's stock rose, and I even finished college at the age of 15, becoming the top-ranking youngest successful CEO in the world. it really feels like a dream, However, in exchange, I constantly experience this nightmare in which persons who are related to me always pass away.
well it doesn't matter anyway, I'm already dead ever since when my parents died. my only job here in this world is to give a 'justice' to my parents death.
"yes..I'm already dead. " I said bitterly before slowly closing my eyes.

THIRD PERSON'S POV
The papillon Noir Academy, or simply called as P.N.A, is a sizable school that resembles a castle and is located in the northern part of London. Its style is almost identical to that of Oxford University, but its size is exactly the same as Harvard. Due to the fact that the only students who are permitted to study here have ties to the mafia, yakuza, and assassins, this school is isolated from royal families and other ordinary people. The P.N. Academy was a well-known institution in the underground society and was often created for students who would eventually join the Black Butterfly Organization.
inside of the P.N academy, you will see two young man who have a violet hair wearing a blood stained school uniform sitting at the top of five students corpse as if they don't care anything at all, the young man who is 5'3 tall was eating an apple casually while the other man, who's 4'6 tall that is sitting behind him is just tapping in his cellphone while yawning, until, a message appeared at the top of his screen, he almost fall at the top of the five mountain corpses as soon as he saw a familiar name, good thing that he manage to balance his self and hop down, but his surprised face hasn't change.
"pfft, what the hell happened to you, bro?"
"Brother.. I think there's a devil who will going to appear here tomorrow."
"huh? what are you talking about?"
"the devil is messaging me.. what should I do?"
"uh, answer his message?"
these twins are none other than rohan and rheyne morgan, or rather.. crystalle cullen's cousins, their real surname is Moriarty, and at the same time.. both of them are part of the supreme 10 of P.N academy.
Rohan Morgan, a rank 5, and Rheyne Morgan, a rank 6, are two of the most dangerous members of the supreme 10 of P.N. Academy. They are the top rankers of the academy who have killed numerous people. They were also the leading candidates to join the black butterfly organization, but they are not here to become one of them, Instead they came to have fun, after all, these two had been the phantom's knight from the beginning.
"you're not helping at all, brother! swear I'm going to solo all these points we collected on my own!"
"How can I help you if I don't know who the hell are you talking about?! did the characters in your favorite game get in your head?!"
"The devil I'm talking about is that girl!"
"who's that girl?! there's a lot of girl around the world?!"
"Aisshh! It's crystalle! crystalle cullen!she's coming here!"
"Huh?! It's just Crystalle—What? eh?"
when rheyne understand what he meant, he also jump down on the ground and took his twin's cellphone before read the message, his eyes almost stick on as rheyne start to panic while looking around. even if they were cousins, both of them were afraid to crystalle because of its dark presence that she keeps emitting and it's cruel, heartless, ruthless-like-a psychopath personality.. she's the leader of phantom's knight after all, that's why the twins think of her as the 'evil queen' of organization, because of her high-almighty and majestic standards. however.. just because they are afraid of her doesn't mean that they are not close. they were just like an ordinary cousins out there and the twins respect crystalle so much.
"Damn, the evil queen is going here on her own?!"
"then this just means that.. the organization has started to move by now.. it's been six years."
six years.
The last confrontation between the Black Butterfly organization and the Phantom's Knight organization took place six years ago, and here we are. They'll start fighting once more, but this time, the conflict will be between the second generation, their heirs, and heiresses.
the gate of aphrodite's garden.. will soon to be open once more, for the second time.. no one knows what kind of future awaits them, a bloody battle between two fated organization will soon to clash together, a battle where your life is at stake..
so rohan's lips curled up before he look at the night sky covered with grayish-fog.
"I think there will be interesting battle that will happen, brother."
meanwhile, rheyne just purse his lips and shake his head. "heh, how troublesome."
In the morning march 24 2027, 2:30 am..
CRYSTALLE.
" have you prepared everything?" I looked in the mirror and saw myself dressed in a black navy skirt that is 15 cm above the knee, white tights that reach my knees, a pair of black school shoes with 2-inch stiletto heels, a red blazer with a gold badge on the side, a white school shirt tucked in, and the black tie. I put on some round eyeglasses after loosening my ash-gray wavy hair and covering my gray eyes with a black contact lens.
"yes my lady.. including the fake requirements, I already make sure that they won't notice us, especially you."
"Good.then let's go." He handed me the tiny envelope as I observed him dressed similarly simply: black slacks, a red jacket with a gold badge, a white shirt, and a gold checkered tie, as much as I want to keep it a secret from myself, but.. he is fuckin' handsome! Even though he is a male, his beauty radiates, particularly when he lets his black silk hair down.
now this is what you call the 'devil's charm.'
before I blurted out something, I decided to leave in the room and let devian hold my baggage, after leaving the mansion, we stepped downstairs, and as soon as we did, our car began to move. devian immediately understood what I was saying when I held out my hand in front of him. He then handed me a small envelope, which I opened and read.
'Elyze Maurienne Moriarty, 18 years old.'
I raised my eyebrow at what I read and gave him a cold stare.
"what's the meaning of this?" I asked coldly.
"you said make a fake requirements so I did. why? is there something wrong?or you just don't want the others to call you like that? elyze is a beautiful tho." He said teasingly, I give him a twitching smile and cuss on him, hell! of all names he can use as my alias, why it have to be elyze?!
"fuck you, dem—!" I was surprised when he suddenly covered my lip with his index finger and give me a frivolous smile.
"ssshh, someone might hear you here." I quickly removed his index finger from my lips before looking away from him, I let out a heavy sighed and speak coldly.
"you're losing my patience, devian."
"losing some patience in just a mere alias? you are truly a psychopath.."
"if you know that so much then do your job well, idiot."
I just rolled my eyes on him and just stare to the window while crossing my legs, dang.. it's so frustrating, the fact that no matter how I tried to insult him, he just keep giving me a carefree smile and teases me instead, he's a bastard, a masochist! does he really don't have any weakness?!
so I let another long sighed and stare to the envelop again.
'NAME: Elyze Moriarty
AGE: 18 yrs old
PLACE OF BIRTH: westminster, england
DATE OF BIRTH: december 31 2009'
hmm.. the fake requirements were believable and flawless, so I guess this is not that bad, the only thing that matters me was my fake name, I really hate it.
There was intense stillness between the two of us for an hour, during which time I hardly noticed any cities or buildings and instead only saw trees, bushes, and grasses. another 30 minutes had passed since the limousine we were in had stopped in front of a golden gate indicating that we had arrived Infront of the academy.
"Its really in the middle of the forest." I commented while looking all around.
"yeah,since this school was for mafias, it is necessary that it'll be built in a secluded places." Devian answered me while holding his chin.
"Let's go." I just mentioned before we entered, we asked the guard where the Headmistress office was, and they pointed out the location right away, so we followed him. As soon as you enter the gate, Seven enormous acacia trees are lined up in a straight line next to the fountains, and at the end of those trees is a huge building that most students enter, some students are sitting on the large silver fountain while studying, while the others are eating. As we entered the structure, we noticed a third enormous tree in the middle, followed by three enormous five-story school buildings, one of which was directly in front of us and the other two on either side. The security personnel direct us to the headmistress' office, where we enter and push the fifth button after using the elevator. The elevator had opened a few moments later, he hallways are tidy, and on the right there is a massive large window, we came across a double door at the end of the corridors with the words "headmistress office" etched on a silver plate above it. When we opened the door, a woman in her 30s with brown wavy hair, wearing a silver-rimmed spectacle glasses, a black formal dress, and three inches stilleto heels was sitting at the swivel chair with her hand clasped.
"Welcome to P.N academy, my name Is amara del luna, the headmistress of this school, seeing you here just means that you're already well-informed what kind of school is this, right? although, I'm still going to ask both of you to make sure that my intuition is right.." her eyes turns into cold one as she took the ballpen and throw it above, I trembled a little but then calm down.
"are you here to transfer, isn't it?" she added, we walked in and nodded before giving our fake requirements to her, he read it and after a while he closed the folder before looking at us.
even if I already know her, I just pretend like I'm amazed by her beauty and graceful words. amara del luna, she was known as soft opera princess in the outside who rivaled the soft opera queen, which is my auntie, angeline fye moriarty, although she use angeline morgan as her stage name. but at the same time.. I also suspect that she's also one of the members of black butterfly organization. the P.N academy was founded by black butterfly, therefore, it's possible that she's one of their regular member. she's the dean of this school after all.
"then allow me to explain..the P.N academy or Le papillon noir Academy is a secret mafia school that was not covered by the royal family and government,so once we knew that you two are spy or queen's dogs, you two will gonna die."
"rest assured we're here because of our own perspective."
"just to make sure, you see, trusting too much can lead into fall.. as the headmistress of P.N academy, I need to ensure the safety of my students."
ensure the safety of students my ass.. I just lampooned.
"anyways, as I said earlier this school was not covered by the royal family and government, you don't need to pay anything, just your life. seniors are too hot-headed when it comes to beginners so be careful, I do hope you won't die early. we only have a one motto here.. its either kill or be killed. if you want to survive then you need to stained your hand weather its your friends or foe.
there are 5 different class here in P.N academy,the D-class,C-class B-class A-class and lastly The S-class or known as, Class zero and the student council of P.N academy.. right now there are only five students in S-class, or I must say, its seven, since there's another two guys here who transfers here yesterday. but now.. its already nine, you should be thankful because of your fabulous records, from now on you two will gonna be in S-class, this will be your keys, you can leave your belongings here and let the guards place it on your room and catch up with your first class.. that's all I want to say, if you still have a question you can ask your president.. once again welcome to P.N academy."
and with that, we leave in the headmistress office already. we started to walk at the changing room, but one thing that I'm curious about are the.. mysterious people who also transferred here in this school. I need to know whether if they are hindrance to us or not. still.. looks like the heaven side to us this time.
"S-class huh?this school was not that bad than I thought.. we can now move in second plan."
"Yeah indeed.. there's a lot of pure soul here, what a feast."
I stop walking as I heard devian's reply to me, so I give him a small glance.
"we're here to eliminate the black butterfly, not to eat."
"I know that, my lady but..you'll gonna kill them anyway, right? you see, wasting food means losing grace."
wasting food means losing grace. what is he? a saint behind in a demon's face?
"don't do something stupid without my order devian.do you want them to know what's your real identity?"
"You're really heartless my lady, once I don't eat soul in one week, I might lose my control and hurt you."
"then Control yourself."
I tied my hair into pony tail and comb it with my fingers. I saw him staring at me with a mischievous smile but I just ignore him. not that I care, as long as he won't do something funny, that is.
"you still a beauty as ever my lady..If you are just one of my women, I will never get tired of looking at your perfect face and slim body."
and that stop me from walking, I took out some dagger and point it on his chin while wearing my expressionless face, then give him my middle finger. I have no time to his stupid jokes, and we're not that close either to tease me.
"shut up."
-♥-
I cautiously open the door from S-class room. Three daggers suddenly appear in front of us; I quickly grab one, dodge the other two without wasting any energy, and give the attacker a poker face. The attacker is a man with blonde hair and a handsome face who is seated majestously behind a desk, as if he's telling me that I'm just a small pry in his eyes.
if only were not in disguise right now, I would have tear him into half.
"welcome to S-class, newbies."
"you have a unique way of welcoming someone."
ofcourse, I'm being sarcastic here. he can just say 'welcome to S-class' rather than throwing some dagger to us without giving us a warning. tsh.
"is it?I'm just testing your abilities, and the way you move, you seems so flexible and always careful to your surroundings..you two are assassins, aren't you?"
"and so what if we are assassins?"
when I heard a familiar voice coming from the back, I turned around and face them, when I recognized the other folks I had been searching for, I couldn't help but smirk inwardly. Who would have thought that I would discover them here so early.. the deity has definitely favored me this time.. I have to plans, one is to join the S-class, and the other is to.. find the twins. but those two are finished now because I've already located them. The young man slowly step in the light room as I watched his purple hair blow in the breeze. This is none other than Rheyne Jaden Moriarty, one of my cousins.
"that's enough Chauncey, seriously, you're always like that, pretending to be a detective, that's why, you're always in danger. sticking your nose to the things that you shouldn't knew."
When I saw the man's worn-out face spoke up and his purple eyes—which I have admired ever since I was a child because they shine whenever the moon rises in the night, as if it was responding to him, I actually grinned devilishly. His name is none other than.. rohan Moriarty, and he is one of my other cousins and Rheyne's twin.
"you're always like that to bro—!"
I interrupted him mid-sentence as I pounced on him with such speed that makes everyone in the room gasped at my agility. When he saw that I was going to attack him, he jumped on the desk to deflect my kick, but I ran to his back again and pulled out my dagger before pointing it at his throat. As I had anticipated, he remained calm while giving me a chilly and lazy look, so I smirked once more and whispered.
"your eyes is still beautiful as ever."
He clenched his hand when I said those words, but his expression remained unchanged and unaffected as before. seriously.. hee is the only member of Phantom's Knight that I am aware of who, even in the face of extreme fear, doesn't give up. he maintains his expressionless face, as if one without emotion. That's the reason why I decided to bring him in—in the Phantom Knight.
he doesn't despair at all.
Then, someone interrupted the fun when a different guy spoke again, but this time it was the serious-looking guy who was staring at me with his legs crossed. I felt a shudder run down my spine when I heard his cold, monotone voice, as if he were giving me an order.
me? ordering someone like him?
"hey. cut that out, attacking him out of the blue."
but in the end, I just choose to bring down my weapon and hide it on my pocket, I put my hands on my back and.. smile to her sweetly, even if just a glimpse, I saw him gasps to me, but I just ignore him and pretend like I didn't sense something.
"I'm sorry about that."
Shortly after, a woman wearing an eyeglass enters at the room, so all of them just sat to their respective seats while me, I just went Infront to introduce myself to them, she must be the homeroom teacher of this class.
"all right S-class,as you know, there are two transferee who will join us here today, introduce yourself to us.newbies."
"Elyze Moriarty.nice to meet you."
"Devian xenon. its my pleasure to meet all of you."
"Then Devian and Elyze, You can sit at the back, If you have a question you can ask the president of this Class, Damion Amadeus Del Luna, the guy on the front seat."
she pointed out the guy who have a dark aura surrounded on him and the person who preached me earlier. as soon as I heard his name, my eyes slightly widened. damion del luna.. could this mean that he's a relative of the dean of this school..? if that's the case then.. he must be part of black butterfly as well..
"By the way, where's the other transfer student yesterday?I can't see them."
"they are absent ma'am."
that was the man who throws a dagger to me earlier replies to the teacher, I think his name is Chauncey because I saw it in his nametag.. suddenly devian poke my shoulder and whispered something to me.
"Someone was approaching, my lady.. Its fade but there's no doubt about it.. two immortals was here."
my eyes widened when I heard his reply, two immortals he say? then what are they doing here?!
"what do you mean? don't tell me it was the transfer student?"
if there's an immortals just like devian who was here then we might be in disadvantage, we must think a plan about them, devian is a demon and if the immortal he's talking about is a reaper or an angel..
"Yeah it really is but—"
But it's too late; just then, the door burst open, and two people — one with an innocent face and silver hair, the other with an eyeglass and a book in hand — hurried inside. wait.. those people with the light skin, dark blue eyes, and white, curly hair, followed by those with black, straight hair, green eyes, eyeglasses, and black books in his hands.. they're people I know.. could it be..?!
'The angels are holy beings that guard the inhabitants of heaven; they are not permitted to travel to earth unless it is for a very vital matter.' While reapers are the inhabitants of the underworld who gather the souls of the deceased. these two holy beings from a parallel universe maintain both the peace on earth and its equilibrium. they are also one of my enemies. therefore, just shout my name if you come across any of these beings.. my lady.'
"Zepphyr Fuentavilla And Jotaro Miller!You're late!"
"We know."
"We're sorry!"
"I knew it..These two.. they are bad ideas my lady, please becareful to them."
I take a second look at them and notice that the man wearing glasses was encircled by a violet aura, however it was darker than Damion's. While the other one.. despite having a pure aura, you can sense the bloodlust in his eyes. It is too light-yet-dangerous, to the point where you don't want to look at it, so I take a little step back as the man with the silver hair dashes in our direction and sprints up to my desk, grinning at Devian.
w-when did he—?!
I shivered. ofcourse everyone will going to tremble if there's an angel Infront of you! it's like you're courting death, they are beings that are not allowed to go down in earth unless if it's a very important mission!
"I see..so this is the newbies that the other students talks about huh?about the handsome transferee students and.." he look at me with a sweet smile on his face. "His beautiful fiancee, isn't it?"
fools. I'm not his fiancee, who the hell is the person scattered those rumors?!
"please get off in the desk. will you? or do you want me to force you?" devian, on the other hand, just remain calm like he was.
the two of them stared to each other, until a few minutes later, the silver hair guy jumped down to the desk and lift his hand as if he were giving up then whispers something.
"I give up for now..as long as you won't be hindrance to my mission, I won't do anything to you and your master."
This guy is an angel, I knew it. but not just any angel; according to Devian, there are nine different kinds of angels in heaven realms, which are divided into three groups. The first group includes seraphim, cherubim, and thrones; the second group includes dominions, virtues, and power or authorities; and the third group, whose main function is to assist humans, includes guides, messengers, and protectors; this is where archangels, angels, and principalities or rulers are located. Zepphyr Fuentavilla, the prince of authority, was from the Second Sphere, and his power is just second to the archbishops who's part of first sphere!
then the other one.. he's more dangerous than zepphyr because he's a reaper. I heard about the reapers, they are the one who collects human soul, their scythe can kill hundreds of angels, and even sometimes.. they can even kill gods.
I thought it was just a fantasy at first but now.. my eyes telling me that it's not a lie at all. but this also means that.. there will be a huge killing that will happen in the academy, but that's not the point.. reapers and angels are demon's enemy, it'll be hard for devian to move if they are here.
what should I do with this?
