Association

We had our meal and went to the association right after that. Edith had no college so there was no need to drop her, which is why I slept so hard.

But another burden is that we need to make another college. This week is going to be filled with work…again.

We arrived at the association, through our car. I had worn my usual suit while Azrael was wearing his all black casual attire.

"This guy really has some black colour fetish."

But it looks good on him. Anyway, the point was Azrael's reaction was priceless. His eyes almost fell out of their socket, he was blinking furiously, rubbing his eyes and so on.

"What, you didn't like it?"

"Stop smirking, my reaction is valid. This is your 'association', this is a freaking castle. Above all you name this bad boy Blue Fright."

I couldn't stop chuckling, controlling myself was taking a toll on me now. Yes, the whole association was a literal castle, a freaking fortress. The whole castle has a blue and white finish hence the name Blue Fright.

"Whose idea was it to make a literal castle as an 'association'?"

"Haha..it was me, I wanted the whole old money look."

"Old money? Brother this is medieval money look ... .and I'm all for it."

"hehe, I knew you would like it. Castle is like any guy's fever dream."

"I won't say that but yeah I like it."

I had a triumphant look on my face, strangely happy for something so trivial...

Inside of the castle is pretty mild, nothing extravagant, just simple furniture to compliment the medieval look.

"It looks like a castle but it's not just for show,, ok. During the medieval period they were also used for administrative purposes too. Here you will find sites such as training, research, duels and the usual administration."

"Damn, we regressed back in time. Do we have a noble Lineage too?"

"No, nepotism is bad. But our family does possess such benefits."

"Because of you, I guess."

I answered him with a smirk. That gremlin rolled his eyes, ungrateful gremlin!!

"You guys finally arrived, you know being late on your first day on your job leaves a bad impression."

The person who pointed us out was Larrisa. She was also wearing her usual white shirt, black tie and baggy pants. I could feel the gremlin's smirking eyes, staring spears at me.

"It was not my fault, my boss here is the one who is late."

"You can't just pour everything on me, you were the one who took your sweet time finishing your junk food."

"You were the one who slept like a log last night."

Hearing us bicker right in front of her. Larrisa was mad as hell, she picked my ears and even motioned towards Azrael but he dodged it.

"Oh.. we have a feisty one here."

"No!! She is angry."

"Just so you know that, I am your boss not Arc, mister."

"Wait what? Actually nevermind I was the stupid thinking this guy would have a high position."

"Hey!!! What do you mean by that? I do have a high position of second in command."

"I was going to leave your late visit unpunished but now that you have dodged me. Now I need to punish you."

"I'm intrigued."

"Go run 20 laps."

There was a momentary silence which was broken by Azrael's chuckle.

"What are you? My P.E. teacher. Either way it's easy, I'm gonna go and do it."

Saying so he went out to run laps, almost instantaneously.

"I thought he would retaliate. He accepted it quickly, whether his skinny ass will be fine or not it won't be my fault."

I will seriously get a headache because of this guy. Looking at Larrisa she was shrugging this incident off but I knew she was gonna make his stay a living hell.

"Don't look at me like I'm some kind of demon."

But you kind of are Larrisa and petty too. You like taking control of people's actions. Azrael is kind of your worst enemy.

"Anyway, I have sent a notice to those two. They will be joining too, I got their acceptance notification."

"You mean the other children…Kaltain and Vesna. Hmm, just try to be patient with them."

"Again with your look. I'm not a demon, but if they don't know how to follow rules they will regret coming here."

I have my condolences for those children….just my condolences.

"Come follow me to the office, we have a lot of work today."

I did as she said, I don't want any extra work thrown on me. I could slack off because of her and I'm not making her my enemy for that exact reason.

Inside the office, she went to her desk while I sat on mine. There are some antique pieces here and there all around the office so called design.

Overall it's quite plain, nothing much that would catch your attention. Beside Larrisa if you are a lecherous pervert, cause she had every asset to catch boys attention if I say so myself, ahm.

The work she talked about was sorting of credits used for various purposes such as the recent destruction of college, training centers and thousands of buildings. Most funds are left for research purposes and weapon smithing, still there aren't many results from them. We might need to cut their credits off.
