Chapter 204 - Asia: Another Bishop like me?
In Lavinia's mouth, the culinary skills she was proud of were actually appalling, but she herself had no awareness of this.
It was unknown if this was because she had never eaten her own cooking, or if she was so used to it that she could no longer detect the extremely stimulating taste and didn't feel her dishes were unpalatable at all.
The key color, aroma, and taste of a dish... except for the color which was barely acceptable, the other two were not up to standard. If Lavinia had been allowed to cook dinner for everyone, the ingredients bought today would have been wasted.
In short, under Roy's kind persuasion, Lavinia finally gave up her desire to show off her cooking skills, and the dinner was changed to hot pot.
In a lively atmosphere, everyone ended the celebration.
In the days that followed, Kuoh Town seemed peaceful, and nothing special happened.
However, with the passage of time, they could feel a serious atmosphere pervading Kuoh Town. Of course, this change was imperceptible to ordinary people. Only those who were in the supernatural world, or who communicated with the supernatural world, could feel it.
And the reason for this change... was undoubtedly the upcoming tripartite summit.
The leaders of the Three Factions set the meeting place in Kuoh Academy, and they would definitely send people to Kuoh Town to scout ahead of time. Although they all had the intention to cease the war and reach peace, no one knew whether the other party would make any small moves. After all, these Factions had been enemies since ancient times and had accumulated thousands of years of hatred.
With his powerful perception, Roy could feel that there were many strong auras around Kuoh Academy. The strength of these auras ranged from middle class to high class.
There was no doubt that these were personnel sent to scout in advance. Of course, there might also be members of some unknown forces mixed in. It was a motley crew, making it hard to tell them apart.
Three days before the summit, Kuoh Academy used the excuse of a holiday to have all students unrelated to the leave the school to make room for the meeting. This peace talk was of great importance to the Three Factions, and the slightest mistake would not be allowed.
"It seems to be more serious than in the anime." Looking at the empty school, Roy couldn't help muttering to himself. 'I remember that in the anime, before the tripartite summit, Kuoh Academy held a class observation day.'
However, this seemed normal. After all, such an important meeting couldn't be sloppy. Part of the reason might be because Roy had intervened in the storyline, which caused a slight change in the timeline.
Today, only members of the ORC and the Student Council were allowed to stay at Kuoh Academy.
"Rias, where are we going now?" Under Rias's leadership, the group walked towards the depths of the old schoolhouse.
"It's getting spooky. Could there be any ghosts?" Irina nervously looked around. Compared to the floor of the Club's activity room, the floor they were walking on now seemed too eerie, just like a scene in a horror movie.
"We used to be Holy Sword users from the Church, specializing in exterminating bad guys. Now we are Devils. There is nothing to be afraid of ghosts," Xenovia complained.
"Xenovia, isn't it normal for a girl to be afraid of ghosts?" Irina said as a matter of course.
"So normal girls are afraid of ghosts?" Xenovia frowned and thought, feeling that this needed to be written down. If she had a notebook in her hand at this moment, she might be taking notes seriously.
"I got a call from Grayfia a while ago." Rias smiled and explained to everyone, "She told me that my brother has agreed to unblock my other Bishop."
"He's going to be unblocked? I haven't seen him for a long time." Akeno showed a look of surprise.
"But he probably doesn't want to come out," Kiba said with a somewhat complicated expression.
"Another Bishop like me?" Asia was a little curious. When she fused with the Bishop piece, she knew that Rias had another Bishop. However, Rias didn't say much at the time, so Asia didn't know the specific information about the other Bishop. She only knew that because the person's ability was terrible and there was a possibility of going berserk at any time, he was forcibly sealed.
"Well, he's a very cute kid." Rias showed a meaningful smile, led everyone to the end of the corridor, and said, "Here we are."
At the end of the corridor was a large classroom. There was only one classroom in this corridor.
What was unsettling was that the door of the classroom was covered with seals like charms, and there was even a huge metal lock hanging on it, which locked the door firmly. It was as if there was a terrifying monster sealed inside.
"It's not just decoration." Irina felt the seal on the door in surprise and found that there was strong demonic power left on it. It was not just a frightening decoration, but a powerful seal.
"Mhm." Rias nodded and said, "This is a seal to prevent him from running around. It's automatically released in the middle of the night, so he can leave the room for activities, but the range is limited to the vicinity of the old schoolhouse."
Rias stretched out her hand and pressed it on the sealed door. A crimson light glowed in her hand, and she unlocked the seal. The moment the door was pushed open, there was an astonishing scream from inside the room.
"What happened?" Irina and Asia were startled by the sudden scream.
On the contrary, Rias and the others sighed, used to it, and walked in first.
The decoration inside the room was the complete opposite of the outside. It was not a spooky layout but was instead full of a cute style. The pink room made everyone guess at a glance that the owner might be a girl.
