Bab 60: Luminous Valentine
Galahad POV,
Galahad looked at Luminous who was staring at him curiously, "So what did you want?" she asked looking at him, if there was one thing she knew it was that Galahad was a lazy prick who wouldn't move unless he was forced to or he wanted to. Galahad raised his brow, couldn't he go somewhere just to talk with someone? What did people even think of him?! He opened his mouth to answer but was cut off, "Also why is that hair covering your eye? Isn't it annoying?" everytime she met him one of his eyes was covered by hair, which should be extremely annoying but he remained completely unbothered.
"Hmm...never really paid any...attention to it." he said holding it up but as soon as he released it it fell back into place, it had been like that for 2500 years, tying his hair up was annoying, he was too lazy to cut it and he had gotten used to it now. "Then pay attention. Appearances are important as well....sigh." she sighed, Galahad would never learn. Apparently he was too lazy for it.
"So about why I'm here....I want you to ignore the actions....of the Clerics of the Seven Luminaries...for a while." he said scratching his cheek, he was basically telling her to ignore their corruption. She tilted her head confused, "I've never even bothered with them! Why would I care now?" she asked, everything that goes on in the church is ignored by her and the two brothers or the Clerics usually handle it with her completely unbothered by it.
"Even if they....cause a war?" he asked curiously. Luminous just nodded, "Yes." even if they did that it wouldn't really bother her as long as the church itself kept functioning, hell they could have their asses handed to them or be annihilated and she wouldn't even bat an eye. "As your friend I'll...advise you....an out of the blue war with a nation....that is allied with a superpower....would bring your church a lot pressure and disadvantages." he advised sincerely, Luminous was an old friend and advising her poses no problem so it was fine.
She nodded her head, "I see. Then is it not hypocritical of you to stop me from making a move against them?" she asked slightly tilting her head, the advice was appreciated but wasn't he just putting himself at a disadvantage by telling her the negative implications of that action? Galahad dismissively waved his hand, "It's fine...it was for you.....but anyway, ten thousand lives....aren't that much just let them..do what they want." he said lazily, his words were plain truth though they sounded wrong. Luminous slightly blushed, it was for her? He had been looking out for her for 2000 years! She didn't know that Galahad only did it because it was useful for him.
"Roy would tell you to...act. So I came....beforehand." Galahad continued ignoring the Vampire Queen who was staring at his face intently. Luminous' posture slightly changed, she too was a ruler she needed to gain something for it if she was giving up ten thousand lives and the reason too. "Why?" she asked curiously, if it was something important then she didn't mind the deaths of a mere 10,000 humans.
Galahad scratched the back of his head, "Well it's because....I want to declare a war of my own...for a flashy comeback." he said, it was slightly childish of him but he was allowed that much right?RIGHT? Luminous stared at him for a few moments before she started laughing, just for that?! A war!? A good few seconds of laughing later she calmed down and looked at him, "The Calamity God's return huh?" she said looking up in thought with her arms folded.
"Ah don't...put it like that.....it sounds chuuni and edgy." he didn't like that title in the first place. Luminous who was now slightly serious immediately put together the implications of his return, "I see. The friction would be dealt with by your people." indeed with a major event like a God's return a mere crusade by Luminism would probably wash over and be ignored or hell it could even be forgotten. Galahad nodded confirming her claim, she was smart too, "But what do I gain?" she asked with a smirk. Yes the entire incident would go away but why let a war happen in the first place? "I'll owe...you one." Galahad said lazily looking around the room.
"Deal." Luminous instantaneously replied, this didn't even need thought. On top of that she'd get a favor from an Ancient Demon Lord too. "Don't you want me to...explain the advantages?" Galahad asked confused, the deal was good for her but the reply was too fast! "No, deal." she said once more, he may change his mind later so she needed to set it in stone right now, ten thousand lives are nothing compared to a favor from a Demon Lord and an ancient one at that.
Galahad yawned, fine then if she agreed with it so readily then he had gotten what he came here for. He got up to leave but Luminous immediately stopped him, "Would it be such a bother to stay here for a while? It has been several centuries since we last met. I could introduce you to Roy or Louis or maybe Hinata, or even our rare delicacies?" she asked folding her arms, he left too quickly! Always just leaving as soon as his business was done. Galahad slightly chuckled, "Even I feel bad....let's do that." even he felt bad looking at the silver haired vampire who he had met almost 2000 years ago, it was obvious she was trying to stop him from leaving and her attempts made even him feel bad.
Luminous sighed, "Of course not. Just leave like alway- wait really?" she asked looking straight at him. Galahad nodded in affirmation making her smile and drag him of to introduce him to Hinata and then to order some food. A few minutes of walking later they arrived back at the throne room where Luminous took her seat while Galahad stood in the corner. She ordered someone through her thoughts and they made small talk for a while before a woman walked in to the place.
She had short black hair and violet eyes. Her bangs were swept over her right eye while the left side was tucked behind her ear. Her eyes were described as cold and calculating, as though they were looking for the solution to some kind of mathematical proof. In terms of appearances, she was simply stunningly beautiful. Galahad raised his brow, "Oh...you're the kid...that Shizu taught." he muttered from the corner, yes Shizue had still taken Hinata as a student but this time she didn't travel to Ingrassia so for the other kids....well she was there right now maybe she'd come across them and help them? On that note he hoped Yuuki and her didn't come across each other since he could feel that something would definitely go wrong if that happened.
His remark wasn't heard by Hinata though who proceeded to kneel to Luminous, "You called for me my lady?" she said politely, though even then her voice was extremely cold but that was just the way she was. Luminous nodded, "Indeed, I wished to introduce you to Galahad." she said signalling towards Galahad who was now sitting on the ground, as soon as she looked over Galahad got a sudden urge to yawn and so he did. "Yo...kid." he said lzaily waving his hand.
Hinata raised her brow, who was this man? What was his purpose here? What did he want? but most importantly who was he? "You are?" she questioned wanting to know. "Like she said....I'm Galahad." Hinata looked at Luminous who was watching on with an amused look on her face, "The Calamity Lord?" she questioned, if it was a demon lord that was sitting here wouldn't he be exuding some pressure? This man was harmless.
"Indeed." Luminous nodded her head while trying to hold back her laughter, it was quite enjoyable to see people mistake him for someone harmless due to his aura and then regret it the next second. Hinata looked at Galahad with a scrutinizing gaze trying to appraise him but it always failed she recieved no response meaning he had either some way to divert it or that he was so immensely powerful that it was useless and the latter was more believable with the previous implications of his name. Who didn't know the Calamity God? He literally put a cut in the Earth running from Ruberios' border right up to Dragon's Peak so the evidence was there too. Any journey made therefore was through the land he himself raised up since it posed economical problems.
"I apologize for my disrespect." Hinata said slightly bowing, she knew that he would have noticed her appraising him and from past experiences with Demon Lords agitating them was NOT a good idea. Galahad shook his hand dismissing it and started enthusiastically asking her about Shizue.

Rein POV,
Rein bowed to Shuna who was looking at her confused, they were currently standing in the kitchen where food was prepared for any guests and the top executives of the city. "Umm what can I help you with?" Shuna asked politely, she had been cooking when suddenly Rein came along and bowed to her much to her confusion. Rein nodded, "I want you teach me your dishes." with this she could get one over the other three and tell them to suck on it!
With new food she could please her Master, earn headpats, social credit and show the other maids their place. She was the best at it! Yes fuck the other three! They can burn in hell! Shuna smiled at her, it's not like she particularly minded doing that. "Of course, watch and learn." she said rolling up her sleeves. Rein smirked, first she would learn how to cook from this walmart demon that's an expression her master used by the way, then she would get even better than her! Then she would make her eat dirt! Muhahahahahaha!!
She cleared her throat and intently watched on while listening to Shuna who was now explaining the steps of cooking whatever dish she was cooking right now. Shuna was teaching her because she asked politely and because they were Lady Milim's friends.
