With the benefits of such magic, it only took a few minutes to have everyone dressed in their school uniforms before they were all teleported to what appeared to be an ancient Egyptian section of a museum.
'Huh, interesting.' Lelouch thought to himself as he took in all of the artifacts that were visible. When he studied the history of this world to find out its differences, he had been more focused on modern history, but the tales of the empires of old had intrigued him nonetheless.
'Ugh, cat worshipping bastards.' Mika growled in a disgusted tone. 'Why couldn't they worship the noble wolf?' The wolf whined plaintively as she stared at a stone tablet that had an image of Bast, the ancient Egyptian Goddess of warfare who had the head of a cat.
Lelouch was spared from having to respond to his Familiar by the appearance of the man who summoned for Rias.
The man had short brown hair, blue eyes, with a short mustache that was divided at the center of his lip. He was dressed in a lab coat with a suit underneath, though Lelouch couldn't see any identification the easy familiarity the apparent Professor had with Rias was enough for him to be satisfied. He assumed that Rias had set up a standing contract of some sort to break ancient curses or something akin to that.
When Nishiura led the Peerage to a private backroom that held an elaborate sarcophagus in the center, Lelouch felt his suspicions were confirmed. Although, he found the description of the curse to be rather… mundane compared to something he would have expected out of an ancient curse designed to protect the remains of a respected ruler.
Lelouch remained silent as the Professor and Rias discussed the odd curse that seemed to only affect men and older women, but he couldn't help feeling the disturbing sensation emanating from the ancient coffin. He wasn't the only one, everyone in the room, even the Professor, could sense the twisted aura pouring out of the damn thing.
The Devil Knight felt his skin… itch to an uncomfortable degree. It almost felt like small needles were being shoved under every part of his skin.
Rias slowly walked over the sarcophagus and bent over to get a better look at some inscription or another. When her breasts brushed up against a small symbol on the cover, a red light burst out and the top of the coffin opened with a disturbing and ominous creak.
The scene was bathed in a light that matched the color of blood and the creaking sound the cover made as it slid off sent a shiver of… something down Lelouch's spine.
Whatever spells had been cast on that coffin just felt… unnatural.
Letting his curiosity get the better of him, Lelouch walked up to the side of the coffin to peer inside. He closed his eyes and sighed slightly in relief when he realized the mummified corpse wasn't moving like some kind of bad zombie movie.
But when he opened them again, he caught the eye of the corpse and a stream of the same red light that had glowed when the sarcophagus was unsealed burst forth and burned itself into Lelouch's eyes.
He screamed and pressed his hands against his eyelids, thrashing violently around as he tried to fight off whatever spell had been cast on him.
"Lelouch what's wrong?!" Rias shouted, trying to get close to him to help before he violently shoved her away and screamed in terror. An emotion Rias had never thought she'd hear from the composed Lelouch.
She landed roughly on the ground, Issei holding her shoulders so she didn't smack her head on the ground. All she, Lelouch's Familiars, and her Peerage could do was stare as Lelouch's body became engulfed in a mixture of dark, smoky energy and unnatural red light.
And the red light was slowly consuming the darker energy.
"No! Get out! Out! Out! Stay out of my mind!" The last thing Lelouch remembered before his body and mind were possessed by the long dead priest was an unyielding fury burning in his chest and a primal scream ripping its way out of his throat.
The dark energy of the Void was suppressed as it was forcibly returned to Lelouch and he was bathed in the blood-red light that had erupted from the coffin.
"Oh me, oh my, what wonderful, twisted fortune!" The voice of Lelouch shouted in a tone none of Rias' Peerage had ever heard from the young man before as the light outlining his form began to dim.
"It seems my luck just keeps getting better and better!" The thing that had possessed Lelouch let out a perverted giggle, greatly disturbing everyone who knew the normally reticent young man.
A growl alerted the parasite to the wolf that charged his new body and the raven flying around his head looking for an opportunity to strike. With barely a thought, the spirit dismissed his new body's Familiars back to their world.
He didn't have any experience with them, but by drawing on the depths of knowledge held within this new body of his it was an easy task to get rid of two Familiars whose loyalty to him was most definitely in doubt.
Though that wasn't all the spirit of the priest learned as he finished adjusting to his new body. There was so much knowledge inside this young man, knowledge that he knew only because of his possession spell.
To think he'd land inside the body of a man who had once conquered the world before traveling dimensions. It was truly a pity he couldn't utilize the powers he could sense deep inside this body without rousing the keen mind he had just suppressed.
"What have you done to my Knight?" Rias hissed, her anger peaking to where it was when everyone had confronted Raynare. Nobody was allowed to torment her family like this.
Nobody! Her Power of Destruction began sparking around her hands, drawing the entity's attention. That grin was… unsettling on her dear Knight's face.
