Chapter 12: Demon Hierarchy

Aria arrived at the 3rd floor of the girl's dorm building. She was in shock just like Alex and John were. She started looking for her room. Unlike John and Alex, she didn't find her room right away. That's when she noticed what John and Alex didn't. The hall she was walking down started rumbling a little. The hall felt as if it turned 180 degrees to the left. She now knew that if she didn't find her room she could be searching for days since the halls seemed to be shifting. She started picking up her pace looking for her room. She eventually found it before the next change. She opened her room but she was the only one there so far. It looked exactly like Alex and John's room. She took the single bed and let out a heavy sigh.

"I hope John and Alex find their room without much trouble." She said to herself as she closed her eyes to get some sleep before more people arrived.

John was sitting on the bottom bunk bed reading his letter again while Alex and Ezra were almost yelling at each other at this point. They had to attend an opening ceremony later that day. They were required to be there. After that, they would meet their teachers and see their classes. Then they could do anything after that since classes didn't start until the following day.

"Hey Ezra, do you know much about Demon race abilities?" The question was random for Alex and Ezra but it was bugging John that his race abilities and status page were so different from others.

"Yeah, I do what do you want to know?" Ezra asked stopping the arguing between him and Alex. Alex was also curious so he listened in.

"Just tell me what you know," John said. Ezra thought for a minute as he recalled all the information he had.

"Well, Demons are normally a specific type. Their race Abilities take after the 7 deadly sins. Wrath, Gluttony, Pride, Sloth, Lust, Greed, and Envy. Each of these Seven sins possesses a great ability that makes even me think twice before fighting." John figured it was something like that since Wrath was one of his abilities. So that was to be expected. Ezra continued.

"Still there are weak demons known as lesser demons. They can't utilize the full power of the race Abilities without serious drawbacks. Then there are lower demons. They are like lesser demons except they have two race abilities. If a lesser demon evolves to a higher demon they can use the Sin without drawbacks. If a lower demon evolves they become Demon Kings they can use both their abilities without drawbacks. Their abilities are stronger than higher demons though." John thought that this was what was wrong; he was probably a lower demon. he still really didn't understand why his stat screen was like that but he thought he would find out sooner or later.

"Oh yeah there is also a rumor about demons higher than demon kings known as demon emperors. They are some of the strongest Demons. Altogether there are 7 of them and they rule over all demons but it is just a rumor," Ezra said. John was sitting there thinking as he opened his stat screen he was shocked to see it slightly changed.

His race now didn't have all those symbols and he could also see his second race Ability. He figured it was probably gluttony but he was glad it was confirmed. He smiled as he looked up at Ezra.

"Thank you for the info," John said as he laid down on the bottom bed. He closed his eyes trying to sleep before they had to attend the ceremony.
