_______________
After the İntihar was driven mad by the psychological fear of death at the hands of Asmodeus and ironically killed himself, Asmodeus just jump off the large tree after he was sure that the beast was slain by the hands of the other mystics that stepped all over it, crushing the monsters into a puddle of blood.
He looks at the bird-like being with neutral disgust, after all, it was dead what could it have possibly done to Asmodeus due to the effects of Rize's "Adaptive-Immortality" the only good İntihar is a dead İntihar, however out of curiosity about the unknown creature, Asmodeus began to use the eyes of truth to peer into the horrendous beast stats.
And What he saw shocked him, not because of the stats themselves, but because of the way the stats were set up, it differ from what he was used to seeing daily.

İntihar Synopsis: The İntihar race is one of the many sub-species of the Mystic race, they naturally can fly at supersonic speeds reaching Mach-5 when they are fully mature, and their durability makes them hard to cut even with mana-infused blades, and like all mystics who has special ties to nature, they specialize with wind magic and overall wind manipulation.
The İntihar diet consists of raw meat of any variety, and their common enemy is the Şirin an earth-type mystic, the İntihar also feast on life force, and they take this from their prey by inducing suicidal thoughts on them, potentially breaking the minds of passing survivors if they are any that is.
Upon seeing this, Asmodeus had a confused look on his face, normally when he does see the stats of other living beings, he is given a numeric value, however this time around; after peaking at the status of the İntihar he sees something more traditional a classic ranking using alphabetic terms.
Asmodeus instantly reach out to Lilith to inquire as to why he is seeing the status page like this.
"Lilith what exactly is going on, why is my status showing like this?"
The question was a simple one, although some answers were much needed to inquire about the situation at hand.
Thankfully Lilith manages to come through as she explains the situation to Asmodeus as to why the nature of the status board changed.
『So in Eden, everything that is worth something no matter how weak or powerful it may be is ranked using alphabetic terms, from the power of someone's magic to the power of someone's household for example E-rank Nobles, being the lowest, to SSS- rank Nobles, being the highest, although, with enough contribution to the academy, you can rank up, keep in mind that contribution points is the only form of currency in Eden, if we are to use real-time money, then a $100,000, is worth a single CP, while a $1,000,000 is worth 10 CP, and for an E-Rank Family to upgrade to E+ - Rank Noble family they need to pay, 10 CP, and right after to upgrade to an E++ Noble family a total of 50 CP is needed, and finally to jump over to the next tier which is D-Rank you need a total of 100CP』
Upon hearing this Asmodeus was amazed at how easy it was for a single academy to rob the wealthy in such an easy fashion.
However, though that was not the point of the explanation, from what Asmodeus gathered from Lilith's words, then what Lilith was trying to say was that his Eyes of truth just upgraded themselves to align with the ranking system of Eden which in return would make things easy for him to verify, and know the exact worth of things this place has to offer.
"Well that's very helpful I guess, but I should stop wasting time, I still need to hunt for a suitable vessel, and find a way to destroy that fucking annoying barrier, or at least make it so it won't be able to detect my present as a whole, sigh... how annoying."
Asmodeus said out loud as the outcome of the situation was indeed annoying, however, he came here for two things, vengeance, and Ether, two of which were the most important, after all, he was not going to leave this place till he gets two of them.
And absolutely nothing was going to stop him from acquiring both of these things while he is here, everything that dear stood in his way will die no question ask.
And according to Rize even if I suppress it to the absolute limit, it still wouldn't make a difference as the barrier was built to distinguish intruders in the academy.
Then there is the issue with the power difference, I'm still unsure if I would be able to take on the "Warlock of Domination" along with the combined force of the teachers and extra security station there.
But one thing is for sure, and that is the fact that Asmodeus has something that they don't have, and that was the fact that HE WAS BUILT DIFFERENTLY.
With the assistance of Rize Chimera Blood Absorption, the natural blood awakening skill which was her special power as a vampire, Rize is capable of taking the form and racial skills of any being she consumes, into herself, and with an entire garden the size of Earth filled with so much Mystics and overpowered children, then this place was no school, it was an all you can eat buffet, and he was the sole customer.
The mere thought of it pleases him, as he looks down at the destroyed body of the baby İntihar and said.
"Well as much as I hate your disgusting kind, your powers and form would be much appreciated... haha...hahaaah...aha... hahHAHAHAHHAAAA!!!...
And like that Asmodeus began to devour the İntihar as he laughs like a maniac to himself enjoying his sadistic imagination of what he was going to do in this place, children, elderly, and women, it didn't matter everyone and everything was going to be consumed, kill, tortured, and mutilated to empower himself further.
And dear God, everyone that crosses him will learn, they will learn.
-- Change of POV--
-- ??? POV --
-- Near the Androsia Military Camp --
-- Monday 10:14 A.M.--
-- 5 days later --
On a dirt road, a group of people was on horseback going further south from the academy, their destination wasn't too far away from Saint Michael Academy, seeing that the group was heading for their military camp.
The base itself consists of some of the most famous and well train academy Porchers, who squad up in large groups to collect raw materials from hunting Mystics, seeing the body parts are perfect materials to craft powerful magical and supernatural weapons.
Unlike the Flora squad who specialize in herb picking, they belong to the Hunter squad, the weakest of their men was C- rank while the leader of this large group was a mysterious person clad in full body armor.
Upon looking at these people, you could tell they were knights of the Academy, who trained to handle mystics, this person especially though stand out seeing that they also had a black fur mantle on their back and large mace to their side.
Even the horse this one specific person rode upon has several pairs of strong legs and six tails, they have a very intimidating aura around them, making them hard to approach.
However, this didn't stop one person, in particular, to interact with the squad leader, it was men with grey hair and dark skin, he had orange eyes, and was 5"3 in height, you can say he was relatively short, he wore a brown cloak that surrounds his body.
The commander instantly looked at the short man while saying.
"You seem rather worried Oaflar, what seems to be the issue."
"Squad leader Ryu, I don't know why but I have had a bad feeling ever since we step within the Androsia road, it's been getting to me lately."
Oaflar replied as he tries to communicate to the squad leader on equal footing.
However, the squad leader replied to Oaflar as such.
"Fufufu! it is rather rare to see you worried about anything Oaflar, to think a [B]-rank warlock like yourself would be scared, we traverse these roads many times already you know, at best there are only a few D- Rank Mystics in this specific area that we need to worry about."
"That may be true, but don't forget that although it is weak in rank it takes about ten of our best-trained professional C-rankers to defeat a single D-Rank Mystic, the Mystics are not the rank two race for nothing you know, even then we can't beat a mystic without serious prep time, knowledge, and weapons, and now lady Odin is sending us to fetch Gwarpers so they can restock on healing potions, honestly didn't we catch a bulk of them last weak, how can an entire year worth of material done so quickly, it doesn't make any sense."
Oaflar complain as he was feeling extremely paranoid about the sudden mission to hunt Gwarpers which were D-rank Mystic with supernatural healing properties, their scales can make high-level healing potions to the point of regenerating missing limbs, and although the potions are in great demand by many Noble families, the mission itself didn't make any sense to him, something doesn't feel right, and he didn't know why.
However, he couldn't question the authority of Lady Odin as she was the vice principal of Saint Micahel Academy, her words have much weight as the legendary Warlock himself Michael the Warlock of Domination.
Ryu Seems to see his distress and comforts him with reassuring words.
"You don't have to worry about anything, I'm sure with your imprisonment magic, we will be fine, after all, Lady Odin even went as far, as to give us these teleportation crystals so if anything goes south we can leave at any time, we are too much of an asset to the academy you know."
This made Oaflar a little contented, after all with Odin's teleportation crystal their safety was guaranteed so he sigh slightly in relief as he said to Ryu.
"Maybe I am just a little tired, we have been hunting Mystics since the school year begin without rest at that, well the pay is beyond satisfactory at least."
"That's the spirit Oaflar maybe you should take some time off when you get back."
"Maybe I wil... Haaaaa.... wait is that?"
"What the problem Oaflar, you seem a little confused just now."
Ryu asked seeing Oaflar pause at the very end of his reply, Oaflar look back at Ryu and said while pointing in front of them.
"Is that a student?"
At those words, Ryu look in the direction where Oaflar was pointing and that's when they saw a little girl dressed in all red, her eyes radiate a beautiful pink and her hair was milky white, she stood in front of the middle of the road.
As she said.
"Lucky me, I finally found some suitable vessel what are the odds, I was growing tired of waiting."
