Episode 3: The Door/Door

When the darkness of the long night sky began to brighten, the figure of Belle and Knight was in front of the door of Arches Church.

The morning sun had yet to show its face, but the sky had begun to be lit by the light of the sun one by one. Soon, the intolerably long night dawns. This dawn meant something special to Bell. Unlike every dawn, the new dawn. The dawn welcomes us for the first time since the environment surrounding the bell has changed dramatically.

Standing in front of the white door with renewed feelings, Bell was dressed in black Knights clothing. That's a special outfit that only the Knights of Black Mages (Grigori) were allowed to wear.

Imagine a wizard, this black hoodie is wrapped in a ratty vest. Many black magicians (grigories) in the bells and talking rooms wear rat-colored vests, but only the nights wear red vests. Is it a special vest just for the M-12? There are many slits in something like a skirt stretched down to the knee so that it stays connected from the vest.

The Knights outfit also seems to be aware of how it looks in battle, and its costume, like dancing in the lower body, creates a sense of dynamism and wizardry. And peeking under that skirt are black boots.

One of the most distinctive of the attentive uniforms is the armor that is visible everywhere. Armor-like protective equipment on both shoulders, and elbows, creates a chivalrous look. It was exactly the same uniform that shaped the word "black sorcerer" knight.

Of course, the Knights ID serves as a buckle for the belt, and a chain of tattoo-like vows peeps through the left sleeve.

"Cool but... isn't this hard to move?

Bell moves his arms and legs firmly to ascertain the functionality of his Knights outfit. Its black and stylish uniform tickles his cook's two hearts, but he doesn't look convinced at all.

"We'll get used to it. Besides, it is in the time of battle that this Knights-dressed leader is unleashed. If you actually fought, you'd be glad to wear this!

"Yes... what"

Come on, let's go.

Knight opens the white door. What was spreading beyond was the so-called chapel (chapel) that we often see at weddings, etc.

From the entrance to the back, there was one road through the center of the room, with five or six rows of wooden benches lined up beside it. The ceiling is the same height of 4-5 meters as Gregorio and is open.

The back of the room was so beautiful. The huge altar, nestled on the back wall, has a white tone and intricate sculptures. Sculptures representing the Three-Day Moon Cross were present everywhere on the altar. Breathtaking stained glass behind it.

The stained glass covers the back wall to the far above ceiling. The light entering from the outside shines beautifully through a rainbow stained glass. Even at this dim time, when the sun had not yet climbed in the morning, its beauty could easily be felt.

"Then again. This is Captain Night Dissenber, the M-12 I'm supposed to be your educator. I'm going to coach you so you can be a fine Knights."

"Wasn't I supposed to have a special lecturer?

"Of course I have a special lecturer. Apart from that special instructor, I have a role to play in guiding you as your educator. This is also M-12 duty. Lead the Knights on Master Gregorio's behalf."

Just hearing what Knight said earlier could have led me to misunderstand that Knight was the special lecturer. Apparently Knight will be in a position like a manager.

"I see... but how do I control Arrosha's power? I can't imagine me controlling the power of Arrosha."

Previously, Bell has been swung by Arrosha. I intend to use my magic formations to control the power to absorb and release flames, but the demons of the Fire will not give me any more power.

"Don't worry. I went out of my way to have a special lecturer come from afar so you could control Arrosha's powers. I'm sure he'll help you."

"From afar... aren't the special lecturers from the Knights of Black Magicians (Grigori)?

"Hahaha. The Knights are a global organization, right? Of course, the special lecturer is a member of the Knights, but his home base is not the Kingdom of Sertria. I was asked to come from Diostra, the land of the sun, beyond the sea, far from this country."

"Didn't the Knights Leader (Commandor) say that the special lecturer should already be waiting at the church...

Bell said that in a low voice imitating Gregorio.

"Haha... I'm sure he's already here... what are you doing? He is."

Knight also thought that the special lecturer was just something that had already arrived at this church, but I don't see that special lecturer even if I move my gaze around every corner.

They were walking down the middle road of the chapel. The walking bell is bored to put his hands behind his head. If it were true, the special training would have started right now. Bell's drowsiness, which was supposed to be sleepy, had already blown away. Are special instructors and late demons?

"Whoa, whoa, whoa."

At that moment as he was walking in the sky above, Bell's heart rate soared.

Something suddenly appeared in front of me. Bell had exactly assumed that there were only two of us in this space: ourselves and Knight.

It was the brown boots that popped up at Bell's present. The brown boots are popping out of the long chair on the front right. Does anyone fall asleep in that chair?

"Isaac......"

Witnessing a brown boot that popped up in front of him, Knight mouthed the name of the owner of that boot in a sigh of sigh.

…………

………………………

"..........................................................................................................................................."

Instead of getting a response, it was snoring like a monster squeaking from there.

"Totally......"

Knight sighed again at the person who said Isaac never replied. Due to Knight's attitude and the snoring he heard, the man who says Isaac definitely sleeps there.

Knight pulled out the owner of the brown boot as he walked to the front of the bench.

"Ite tee tee tee tee...... hey, don't be abusive, boy"

When Knight pulls his ear and drags it out, Isaac finally wakes up. Its skin was as dark brown as boots, and in contrast its hair was bright white. The bright white hair is rampaging unconstitutionally like a lion's tenderness, with one thick forehead dripping on the right side of his face.

What stands out at first is the sunglasses he hangs. The black sunglasses cover his eyes and hide their area. Then Bell noticed that Isaac was not wearing a Knights outfit. Isaac wears black trousers and a black shirt. That seems to be the Knights of the Black Mages (Grigori), but he had a yellow jacket on top of it. That yellow jacket is dazzling and existential.

Even more eye-catching is the huge sword carried on his back. It's like the neck eater Benjamin had. The patterned part of that sword seemed to symbolize the G of the alphabet, as did the Knights Certificate. At first glance, he's just a congratulatory gangro man, but from that great sword he carried comes awesomeness.

"Stop calling me that. Isaac, I brought a boy to be your disciple."

Knight introduces Bell, though slightly frustrated with Isaac's way of mouthing. From the tone of Knight, it looks like someone he calls a special lecturer.

"Oh, Knight! You must have gotten a lot taller.

"You know what, Isaac? You are not my parent or my relative's uncle. [M] Will you stop kidding me? My height hasn't grown since we met."

Kind Knight hangs out with Isaac's jokes. Is this the usual Isaac? Because you must be a hell of a pain in the ass.

"Joke, joke, don't get mad at me, boy. That's right, that blue kid is my apprentice."

When the joke came to a paragraph, Isaac finally got to the point. How the hell long does it take to get special training with someone this annoying?

"I think the blue-smelling kid in the first meeting is quite rude. ⁉ ●"

"Don't be so angry. That kind of thing smells blue!

Isaac suddenly turned behind Bell, pushing his back with momentum. A lot of words would mean exactly this.

"Nah! What are you doing all of a sudden?

To Isaac, who was somewhat familiar, Bell was causing frustration. First contact with Bell and Isaac just sucks. Bell, irritated by Isaac, immediately stopped using salutations.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry. Let's make this about the joke. I'm Isaac Restore from Diostra.

You're still the best demon swordsman in the Knights, aren't you? My demon sword is popular, I'm busy too. I've been inviting teachers from Arches School of Magic for a long time, but I don't like talking down in front of a lot of people. "

Yeah, Isaac talks down like a machine gun. Bell wondered if anyone who spoke so poorly could ever speak in public.

"So, this is also the new kid...... oh, it's about you! Teach you how to control black magic (Grimoire). I was going to say no, but after I found out about your identity, I was motivated. You're Black Sartain. I can't believe I taught you the art of controlling demons in people. Ah, that's not something you can rarely do. So, I came all the way here!

Isaac kept talking nonstop. I'm going to get tired just listening to this guy. So much information Isaac talks about per hour.

"Isaac, I left the rest to you. Belle, come to HQ when you can control the devil. You're definitely coming because you need to do something important, right?

That's what Knight left behind, leaving Arches Church early. Knight and Isaac seem to be pals of old knowledge, but not least Knight doesn't seem to like him.

Bell was left alone with the world's most annoying man. But this is also destiny again.

"So, how do you teach me to control the devil?

"Well done. You listened! I've always been good at spotting people's orbs. My eyes are called" devil's eye ”by people, and this is the trouble. So, I'm wearing these suspicious sunglasses. My eyes are not normal. Ma, I don't know if you care, but you're a creature who cares about anything human, right?

"... so?

Bell hammers Isaac with a cold eye to the extreme. Is there a gavel that doesn't have a heart so far?

"Oh, yeah, I know. I'm telling you, it's actually faster to show it."

Isaac slowly removed his sunglasses, naturally unaware of Bell's cold eyes. I exposed the “devil's eye”, usually covered in black sunglasses, to the bell.

"What... those eyes..."

What was there were strange eyes that were not normal. Bell couldn't hide his surprise and couldn't keep his eyes open. Green, blue, black or brown and other human irises come in a variety of colors. Bell's red iris is not uncommon.

But Isaac's iris had no color. Not only that, even the pupils don't have color. It was faintly blue-white, but there were two bright white eyes. Those eyes were packed with suspicious charms that could not be expressed in words that seemed to draw me in when I stared all the time. The charm is somewhere similar to a chair of curse.

"You see, if you show these eyes, they're pretty much all the same. My eyes are not normal. I'm not the only one with devil's eyes. My brother and father have the same eyes. As its name suggests, these eyes are like the eyes of the devil"

Isaac's bright expression only darkened a little then. Now that I don't have sunglasses, I can see his expression in my hand.

"..................... So? How does that devil's eye relate to Arrosha's control?

Being aware that Isaac also has a sad situation, Bell softens his attitude just a little bit. Isaac needs help from now on. You can't refuse forever.

"Yes, yes, I know. First I see through your heart with these eyes of mine, and I peek at the demons. The devil who seeks the orb must be lurking near it. Then, with the power of this demon sword that I carry, I'll drag that Arrosha and them out to fight you."

That plan, conceived by special instructor Isaac, was extraordinarily bold. His words have a string of words that go beyond Bell's common sense.

"Wait a minute, how can you drag Arosha out?

"Well, it's a metaphor, metaphor. Anyway, in any way, you fight Arosha."

"Me and Arrosha fight? I'm just using Arosha's powers, and I don't have any power over myself, do I? What am I supposed to do?

"Well, I think about it. I need to see your heart first..."

Isaac took a big, deep breath as he deceived the bell, which raised anxiety. He then wrinkles between his eyebrows and stares at Bell's chest. Isaac seems to be trying to see something, but there was no particular change in that demon's eyes.

…………

Bell, who had never been able to look seriously at someone face to face, gets nervous even if he doesn't respond. A human with special eyes to see is about to see a demon nesting in Bell's heart.

The two remained in the same position for a long time without breaking the silence. All that time, Isaac doesn't move his gaze from Bell's chest.
