Chapter 91: Pyrrha's POV
Chapter 91: Pyrrha's POV
~Pyrrha POV~
"Sigh…"
Glancing through my own home kingdom of Mistral Kingdom of Argus I couldn't help but sigh at the scene.
Everything around is normal as it can be.
Everything is going around with everyone doing as they please in our peaceful time.
Even being the Champion of Mistral Kingdom twice in a row has been something that was worth something which it is still but…
Glancing down to the below of my home I see more of that so-called Cultist from that weird Konoha village that popped out of nowhere.
And who wouldn't know about them?
They are always getting people who were wronged once upon a time by the people by criminals and murders.
It's up to the Huntress's and Huntsman's job to handle those kinds of threats but these cultists though…
Frowning at them they always take things too far in the name of justice.
From what I heard over the news of the people of Mistral that they should be treated as hostile but keep a distance from them.
But are the rumors about them true?
Hmm…
Placing a finger on my chin viewing the Konoha Cultists in the area my mom told me to not interact with them because of how bad they are since even the Kingdoms and other cities are calling them bad.
There are supposed rumors that they follow a Grimm as their leader because of how he doesn't look human or Faunus.
But the Cultist don't seem to care as they called who was his name again.
….
Ah!
It was the being they called their leader Hanami?
The odd name since he or she doesn't fit the norms of naming but to each their own I suppose.
What makes them dangerous at least to the news is that their leader is extremely dangerous as he takes his own justice into his own hands.
*Shiver*
I even felt a shiver recalling any news about Hanami against the citizens or more specifically against the criminals of Mistral or bandits as they are all getting wiped out as we call it but to the cultist though…
They gleefully smile calling it a purge or karma.
That's what makes them dangerous as they don't recognize the matters of human or individual lives so long as they have been wronged.
In those cases, those Cultist takes things too far.
Sadly the police nor the Huntsman or Huntresses in Mistral can do anything about it because of the fact of the sudden death rates happening in the kingdom.
I don't know what kind of leadership is happening with Haven Academy Headmaster Lionheart as I haven't heard how he will deal with the Cultist rising up to scary levels.
But I really shouldn't fear so much I mean good always triumphs over bad right?
Maybe all of this will be blown over one day.
"Pyrrha sweetie come on down! You have classes starting up!"
Smiling at this hearing my mother's voice I began to reply as I hurry along in a cheerful tone, "Of course mother! I'm coming down soon!"
Maybe I'm over worrying about this.
I have other things to worry about like my Exam coming up in a few weeks.
Those I have to fight against.
/////
When I finally got done eating I was hurrying along down the streets of Argus as I was waiting for the transportation bus to come over.
"Now hear me now people of Mistral…"
"Sigh…"
Rolling my eyes at this I see another Cursed Cultist presentation again in the main parks advertising their voices to everyone.
This is starting to become a common occurrence nowadays.
"Please we beseech you people of Mistral to heed to our lord and savior Pope Albus!"
"Our Pope Albus or our Cursed King Albus shall guide the clueless Sheep to a greater era than what we have…!"
"Our age is stuck in stagnation as we are too broken to see the truth…."
"BUT!!!"
"With our lord and savior Pope Albus or mostly known as the Cursed King!"
"HE SHALL BE OUR SALVATION!!!"
"PRAISE THY CURSED KING!"
"PRAISE THY POPE ALBUS!"
"PRAISE!!!"
"PRAISE!!!!"
"PRAISE!!!!!"
"PRAISE FOR THE RISE OF THE CURSED KING PEOPLE OF REMNANT!!"
"AMEN!!!"
Ok…
This is really going to disturbing levels those Cursed Cultists are showing right now and really makes me not want to join.
Honestly, I feel a bit disturbed about the whole situation.
And I even people in my own age groups follow along with all of this… madness is the term here correct?
I mean there seems to be an orange hair girl with a hammer talking with her friend I assume who looks to be a ninja talking about more of the Cursed King or Pope Albus?
Seems like they are heavily influenced by them…
Frowning at this I know it might not be my place but I have to help them see what they sell is false.
Clearly, these people are brainwashing everyone around but why aren't the police acting to defend them or the rest of the people listening to this…?
Even those Cursed Cultists are wearing badges or emblems on them to show who they are as I found this a bit much.
Maybe they are advertising them a bit to earn some Lien.
I mean there is a booth right next to the stage they created at the park and… people seem to have taken QUITE a liking to them…
Maybe I should get –
*RING*
What was I thinking about again?
Ah!
Right, I have to get to Sanctum Academy.
Hearing the transportation bus snapping me out of my concentration I hopped on to get ready for my Combat Academy at Sanctum Academy in Argus as I hope not much is happening around here.
Hopefully…
/////
"Whew…"
Managing to arrive just early to my class I began to get everything ready while avoiding the troubles of being famous for being the champion as I have everything ready for class subjects today.
As I wait I didn't realize till maybe now that I see a change in my classmates.
I do admit though I usually don't care much at the time I seem to notice more and more of my Classmates wear the same emblem that those cultists wore but not many since I think they just bought it for the heck of it.
Although they could belong to those Cursed Cultist parents and they are their kids…
But to each their own right?
Waiting patiently I waited till everyone was there and our homeroom teacher soon came through the door as he spoke to everyone, "Moring students. Today we happen to have new students joining us to Sanctum Academy today. Please be sure to keep the welcome here. Now then…"
Waiting patiently I was honestly happy seeing that we get some new faces.
Maybe I could use this chance to make some friends.
Oh isn't that such a wonderful idea –
And that idea was immediately shot down burned to ashes and next wasted to feed a starving animal as my expression froze seeing those two here.
They were the ones I saw in the early morning presentation with the Cursed Cultist with emblems on them and all.
Oh, dear…
Next, my homeroom teacher explained to them their names as he spoke out, "Now then please you two introduce each other to the class?"
"Hi everyone I'm Nora Valkyrie! I hope to have a wonderful time with you all! Praise thy Cursed King."
"Hi, I'm Lie Ren. A pleasure to meet you. Praise thy Cursed King."
My heart felt like it was dropped as I heard my homeroom teacher speak out some personal questions to them, "Now then mister Ren. And miss Nora what is it do you like to share with the class?"
The both of them both shared a glance at each other but next nodded as they both responded in a normal and calm fashion that made me nervous, "We both like to pray to our true lord and Savior Cursed King. Or by Pope Albus, as it was thanks to him we live in a safe home no longer on the run. No longer starving off the streets. Grimm took our family away and we had no place to turn but Konoha accepted and helped us when we were at our weakest. A place we both belong with a roof under our heads. Both of us were feed and trained. We both praise and pray to our lord and savior Cursed King."
The class didn't know how to feel about this as this felt whole entirely repeated….
Something tells me I won't be expecting a normal school life anymore…
And when I glanced at my fellow classmates some were weirded out but to those with there Culist Emblem they nodded happily...
