Chapter 49: The Exorcist Guild

"Uhum... He used to be my brother's assistant. But now, he seems to have changed his mind. He has already made Grimm his student. Hopefully, he did not make a mistake, even if he didn’t tell me, I knew that boy’s true identity. I'm not just talking. What did my brother think of me, engot?!"

(Engot-stupid)

Kief laughed at what his master said.

"He was probably the one Father Clemen mentioned to me. He did not explain the whole story to me much. But I think he's different from the average demon."

"You're right. That boy is close to my daughter."

They are currently walking in the wide hallway of the school. They stopped walking when they saw Sir Ulrick-Zeus' ally running towards the council office.

"Hoy!" Constantine called.

The man looked at them but he looked sharp. It kept running.

"Looks like they're going to heat up my brother's student."

"Master, can we follow so that we know what Sir Ulrick intends?"

"All right, let’s go!"

The whole council stopped listening to Clemen as the door opened violently and Ulrick entered — he was one of the school teachers and of high rank. Kief and Constantine entered next.

"I will not allow that child to just enter the guild!" Ulrick's strong opposition.

He looked at Grimm angrily and the latter just looked at the man. They will really heat Grimm because it caused great embarrassment to Zeus.

"Stop it, Sir Ulrick. Don't make a fuss here in the council office." Constantine rebuked.

"You stopped! You and your brother! What are you good at? You can only register someone because your father is the head of the council!" its sarcastic language.

Edward stood up at what he heard and violently drummed the table. His eyebrows met. He was stunned by what the man said. The other old councils fell silent and shot Ulrick sharply. He was courageous because his father was one of the leaders of the Exorcists' organization.

"All right, I'll accept Clemen's student when he passes all the tests in the arena! Open that, right now!" Edward Leigh said.

He did not like his decision but he wanted to prove that his son's student should just be listed in the guild. Not because he is the head of the council.

A smile of victory flashed across Ulrick's face. He will not allow Clemen's student to just enter their guild. He did not believe that it was he who defeated Zeus' group. It is not even known in the world of exorcists and has no known clan origin.

"We will all watch and there we will base whether Clemen's student is worthy of being accepted into the guild." language of a female council member.

Grimm frowned and looked at everyone's face.

"What's happening?" he asked.

Clemen approached him.

"They want to test your ability. You will go through a test and everyone will watch you in the battle-ground arena of this school. Students' tournaments are held there to test their ability and to find out their rank. The tests are easy, you can afford it. You're fine, Grimm."

The young man frowned and swallowed. He scratch very hard on his nape. He stood up and just followed everyone.

They all went down and went outside where the big arena was. Clemen and Grimm went in there and many students ran there to watch. Before going to the battle-ground, Grimm changed his clothes. A school uniform was given to him. He heard a whistle and he saw a tall man smiling at him. This is what Constantine was with earlier.

"I'm Kief. I'm a student of Sir Constantine. Grimm, right?"

"Yes."

The man shook his hand.

"You're fine, kid. Show them your ability to stop the arrogance of the bullies here at school. You defeated Zeus because he was a member of a group formed by the children of wealthy exorcists. They think highly of themselves and they feel, they are the only ones who are good at it. Show them and do not hold back."

He smiled at the man. It was kind and cool so Rusty used to have a crush on him.

"Okay thank you!"

He looked behind it and saw Rusty's father Constantine. It greeted him. After he got dressed he went out to the battle-ground arena and he saw Father Clemen smoking in the corner and waving money. Thick money.

"I bet you a lot so don’t hold back."

He smirked at it.

"You're really weird!" he exclaimed.

It just blew on him and annoyed him.

"The uniform is good to you." its a sudden comment.

He smiled at it. He saw all the students and teachers of the school above the arena. The council was in a special place and everyone was watching him closely. He walked to the battle-ground. He stood in the middle and the people shouted.

"Grimm Redshade! Before I can accept your form, you must first pass the tests. First is the strength test. Get started!" Edward announced.

The shouts of the people grew louder. A large pentagram suddenly formed above Grimm. He was surprised. BLAG!... A giant rock fell directly on him. It was as big as a house. There was thick smoke and when it subsided only the giant stone was left along with the torn floor.

"Wait, I guess it's too much? Clemen's student is just a beginner." comment by female council member Amelia.

Ulrick smiled with Zeus' younger brother Harry. It is tall, white, has short hair and a fat body.

"He is a weakling. I don't believe he beat my older brother-" Harry was stunned.

The stone was gradually shattered and crushed. Grimm appeared to seem to be stretching.

"Unusual! I was a little shocked there ah? It's a good thing I had a warm-up earlier." Grimm said.

He twisted his elbows and slammed his neck. Everyone was shocked to see him. Because Grimm did not even use any power to crush the rock. Another giant stone suddenly plummeted in front of him. He quickly clenched his fist and nothing was met by that powerful blow. The stone was crushed by the blow of his fist and destroyed. The things he was asked to do were just easy. He was only three years old when he first crushed a mountain with his fists.

It was the result of his early training to unleash his power. It was just that his physical strength became stronger and his ability did not come out. That is why all kinds of training and hardships his body went through. Council members stood up and so did school teachers. The students stared as they looked at Grimm. It really has no used power! Clemen laughed when he saw the reaction of the audience. Even his father was very surprised at Grimm.

"What's the next test?!" Grimm asked to everyone.

There Edward woke up and was amazed to see his son's student. What training did Clemen do here and where did he find this child?! He took a deep breath to calm himself. It had been a long time since he had felt so much excitement.

"The next test is speed. You have to avoid all the arrows that will hit you."

After that many pentagrams surrounded Grimm. And from that pentagram came out so many arrows. He closed his eyes and felt the melody of the wind. He will not avoid the arrows but he will pick them up and collect them. The eyes of the spectators widened as they saw Grimm collecting the raining arrows around it. Its speed and seems to keep up with the wind. Grimm was a bit sweaty after he collected all the arrows and he lowered them.

"This boy is really amazing!" comment by an old male council member.

This is the oldest of all. Grimm wiped the sweat off his face. He looked at the council again. He's starting to like it. Apparently, he was warming up.

"What's next?" he asked again.

Edward stopped talking. He intended a surprise. He had a signpost staff and an open jail. Out of the cage came a giant black dog. Its furs are thick and have large, sharp claws. Not so the fangs. The dog is even bigger than the horse. It swayed wildly around Grimm and looked sharp. Grimm also looked back at the dog. Half-breed the dog. It was half devil and he did not know how that was done.

"My dog Knight is a half-breed demon. He is fierce and unrecognizable. Now, we will know if you really pass." said Edward.

The dog sniffed Grimm. The young man remained motionless and looked intently at the dog. Moments later their eyes met. The dog stopped for a long time and stared in front of him. After that...

"Sit!" he ordered the dog.

The dog sniffed him and carefully obeyed his command. It sat in front of him and the people became more and more amazed to him. He approached it and stroked its head.

"Good boy! You're so smart."

He knew it smelled of his blood so it became gentle on him. It recognizes him as a master. People were stunned as the dog's tail wiggled as Grimm caressed its face. Clemen laughed and giggled. Harry couldn't stand it anymore. He quickly jumped out of the arena.

"That's enough! You're too scumbag!" he said annoyed.

The dog turned its attention to it and looked sharp.

"GRRRRR!..."

"Ssshhh... Don't cut it. I'll take care of him. Just go back to your jail." Grimm scolded the dog.

The dog was about to rush Harry but he stopped it again. He sent the dog back to its giant cage. Edward smiled at what he witnessed. He is the only one who will obey by his dog Knight. It does not simply recognize the master. This means that the child is really strong and has unique abilities. Harry was even more annoyed by what he witnessed.

"Huh, your arrogance ah! I've been annoyed with you before!" said Harry.

"Why, what did I do?" Grimm asked casually.

"Why!"

Harry was completely bent over. He pulled out a pentagram and a fat chain. He plunges it into attacking his opponent. Grimm dodged and crushed the cement hit by its fat chain. Unsatisfied, Harry released two more fat chains. It attacked Grimm and only did the latter avoidance. The man just relied on its chains. It does not even move from the standpoint and does nothing but attack him with a chain.

He jumped high and landed on the man's head. He looked at him in shock.

"W-What!"

When he got close to it he grabbed its head tightly and violently threw it to the floor.

"Urgh!" Harry moaned in pain.

He felt his face shatter. He was about to get up but he was punched hard in the back. His body seemed to have sunk. He fell again. Grimm shook his head.

"Because you're fat. I don't think, you have any muscle in your body. You just rely too much on your power." He commented.

He walked away from the man but he was stunned. A man jumped from above and he is the one who rushed to the council office earlier. Clemen also climbed into the arena.

"Ulrick, if you want another fight... I'm your opponent."

"Fine!"

Ulrick put out a fire and poured it on Clemen. Another shield made of his chains was released by Clemen. They rotate fast and fire spreads everywhere.

Ulrick backed away and attacked again but he was shocked when Clemen disappeared from his sight.

"So I don't want to come here! The crookedness and the arrogance of the people."

Clemen is already behind Ulrick. He attacked his neck hard. Ulrick's eyes widened, he lost consciousness and fell to the floor. Grimm smiled at what his teacher had done. It just proved capable. But it obviously does not want it to brag and so does he. Constantine applauded and Kief followed. After a while, everyone applauded. Edward stood up and looked at Grimm intently.

"Grimm Redshade! You are welcome in our guild! And good news... You beat the top ten in the rank. You are the new top ten!" He announced.

Grimm frowned. He could not believe what he heard.

"That pig is in the top ten?" comment by Grimm.

Clemen quickly approached his student and immediately pulled his arm.

"Let it go. Come on, let's go. I'm sure many will ask us questions."

"All right, it's even better. And at least, I'm not bored of going here. Their trials are just easy."

"Yes, let's go!"

Clemen pulled Grimm and they ran out of the arena. People could no longer bear the shock and just looked at the two who had already left the building. They immediately got into Clemen's car and it immediately kicked it away.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Grimm asked Clemen.

"Zeus' allies will surely chase you. You made them even angrier because you knocked down even his brother and you even took his rank."

"Now?" Grimm ignored the answer.

"I don't want you to beat up almost all the students in the school! When that happens, the blame will fall on me again! You are my responsibility. So if it is not necessary, do not fight the exorcist students who will challenge you. Just avoid them."

Grimm grinned.

"Okay. But when I am forced, I can do nothing. "

He leaned on his arms. He was wearing a uniform and he felt like he was cosplaying.

"Let's just go home and eat some delicious bread. What did you do before?" Clemen retorted.

"Raspberry tart."

"Good! Then let's go! I will never take you to the guild again! It's hard. And I don't want to show up there again."

Grimm laughed. Even him, did not want to go back there. He did not like the ambiance and he understood the feelings of Father Clemen. Let the people there. They are bad trip!

"Did you win the bet?" he suddenly ask.

"Yes, I am suddenly so I will treat you a snack." Clemen said while smiling.

"All right."

Clemen has continued to drive. He really has no intention of bringing Grimm back there. He was really nervous when he presented it to Knight. Everyone saw that it was able to subdue that dog effortlessly. Fortunately, no one noticed Grimm.
