Alex no demon volume 5 chapter 17

Two days ago, kazui and luck were with tobi who has been laying on the hospital bed for three months now, luck asks "Will he ever wake up any time soon?", kazui who seemed very worried for his friend tobi, responds after being silent for a few moments "I.... dont know. But all I can says is...we should have hope." Tobi starts to open his eyes slowly as he asks "Huh? Kazui, luck, is that you?", this leaves the two worried friends In surprise, luck hugs him while nearly crying "Oh tobi! We were worried about you!", kazui pauses for a moment and just smiles "Thank God you're okay.", he Pat's tobi on the head and complements him "You kinda scared us for a sec, glad you're okay buddy.", tobi just smiles and responds "I don't even know how to respond, but I'm glad we're alright." Veronica enters the room "So you've finally woken up, I'm glad. You really did scare me.", they all look at Veronica with abit of surprise. Tobi asks "Veronica sensei? What's going on?", Veronica then responds "What, I cant see my own students anymore?". Few days later, kazui knocks on Alex's door, he opens it just to find the boys of the elite squad in the living room, he says "Sorry to bother you guys, but veronica calls for us.", later on, everyone is in kojin's office and with Veronica standing beside the table kojin operates on. "I see you guys are doing well, tho the injuries are kind off scary, but you're still alive. It looks like our mission was a success.", kinto says while scratching his head with a nervous smile"Well yeah, the part were you told us that our mission was to come back alive sounded more like a mission impossible." Veronica says "I know it was kind of dangerous, putting you guys against a bunch of powerful criminals was abit reckless, but you all had the power to take them down or at least be relative to them. So forgive me for that.", serena then says "Its fine, you don't have to apologise. By the way, why did you call us to the lords office?". Veronica keeps silent for a moment and says "Well, it's because a certain someone wants to talk to you all.",the door opens with someone coming in with bandages around his body and a walking stick. Everyone turns back and they are shocked to see kojin, except from his face, the rest of his body like his arms, neck and chest were covered in bandages. "Yo kids, long time. Hope you've been fairing well?", son seeing his dad for the first time in months started to have tears rolling down his eyes, his voice started to waver in a way that he was holding himself from crying "I thought you were dead. I thought.... that I'd never see you again, but you are standing in front of me right now. Thank God! You're still alive.". Kojin just smiles, and puts his hands on son's head "Do you really think that I'd die so easily? I'm the beast of destruction..... no! I'm your dad", Raquel was abit touched and says "Thank Goodness. He's actually alive!". After this touching moment, kojin takes his seat and says "Welcome back, elite squad, black fire included! You took down the dark sign, and our strongest fighters here took down ukina! That's something that no other set of soliders In the world would have done. You all have displayed great feats, and for that, you shall be rewarded.", he stands up from his seat "Come with me" and walks to the balcony of the office, everyone follows him. As they get to the balcony, the teenagers are surprised to see the citizens of the city clapping and praise them, they were yelling in excitement. Serena asks herself "What's happening?" deo then asks "Huh? What going on?", Veronica responds "This is a little gift, you all worked hard to become as strong as you are right now. As you are, you all are on B-rank, not many countries or civilizations in the world have soliders that have reached that level. Not only that, but you took down the number 1 most dangerous and powerful criminal group in the world, and alex and kazuki stopped ukina as well. You guys aren't just the city's pride, you're world heroes." Kazuki looks down seeing people celebrating them "Wow this much people, it surprising.", alex responds to kazuki "Yeah, not just that, but the whole world knows our names". Kojin walks forward and declares silence, he says "Citizens of the city, the world has suffered a major downfall from this war. Millions of shadow puppets destroying countries, the dark sign destroying and invading different parts of the world, and ukina who was capable of taking out the major forces of the world by herself, along with a great calamity who could have ended our very exististence. But yet we are still standing, especially this city, it was the first part of the world that should have been crumbled to nothing! But still, our soldiers right here stood before those odds and came out victorious! These people standing right here, these kids... are the reason why you as citizens can pick up the pieces of your fallen city and rebuild it." The teenagers just had nervous smiles on their faces, they thought to themselves "Really? This man.... After all we did....still refers to us as kids?!", veronica who understands their thoughts starts to tease them "Ohhhh? What's the matter *KIDS*", "this woman!" were the words that came to their minds after veronica just teased them. Kojin while continuing with his speech "I'll be calling their names, so that you all can recognize them as the heroes of this war. Mori Katakuri, Runo Armstrong, Deo Lancer, The girl born from the attack clan, Raquel BrightStar. Son Takahama, kazui Eldion, Luck Detroit, Tobi Arrancer, Baraka Mentralon, Kinto Kusekabe, Sukuna Blaze, Serena Lightdevil, The man who took part in bringing down ukina, son of the the man who was blessed by spiritual forces, Kazuki Takanoguro! And the man who will be the future lord of this city, the son of kazuma the spirit lord and misaki mio, who was the strongest demon of her time, Alex Starion! These are the protectors of the city! From now on, they will watch over this city, and take it too a bright future!".
