Chapter 99 - 98: The Ten Corps Leader Of Celestia(2)

As Grey was thinking that, the seventh Corps leader joined the round table entering the room. He greeted everyone before taking a seat. 

With pale skin and blond hair, he had long pointy ears. He was an elf.

Turning his head around, he looked at Grey. Opening his mouth he asked, "Are you new?"

To which Grey replied with an affirmative, "Yes."

"Then, stand up and leave this room, you are in the presence of your seniors and this meeting is only for leaders."

"Ah, I was actually invited to this meeting," said Grey.

"Understood, then stand up because you are in the presence of your seniors. You will be seated when you have the permission to be seated." said the Elf as he waved his hand up, gesturing Grey to stand up. 

"No, I would prefer to be seated, and besides who decided that you are my senior," said Grey as he didn't budge from his seat. 

"You are awfully cocky for a rookie," said Elf. A smile curved up his lips as he started exerting immense pressure on Grey. "Seniority is decided by strength and I am stronger than you."

The elf was using natural energy to assert pressure over Grey.

There are three types of pressure, first is soul pressure which puts pressure on a person's soul. The second is physical pressure, as the name suggests it put physical pressure on the person. Then there is emotional pressure, this pressure mimics the feeling of fear when asserted on a person.

The pressure that the elf was trying to weigh down on Grey was emotional pressure, using the natural energy. Emotional pressure is where Grey shines the most.

The pressure had no apparent effect on Grey as he remained seated on his chair. 

"Are you a high elf?" asked Grey.

The elf walked up to Grey, irritated, he said "Stand up." 

But before Grey could open his mouth, Hina entered the room along with Rin. Grey turned his attention towards Hina and Rin. 

Hina went ahead stood beside the center of the table, where the leader of the organization will be seated.

This was the first time that Rin had seen Grey after years, folding her hands together, she walked up to Grey.

"What a surprise!, You are here!. Did you finally accept my invitation?" asked Rin as a cheeky smile formed up her face.

"Don't give yourself too much importance, it was Hina who recruited me to this organization," said Grey as he stuck his tongue out, mocking Rin.

"Now now, don't be shy, just accept that you came here because of me," said Rin as she started pulling Grey's cheeks. She took a seat beside Grey.

Grey pulled her cheeks back as he said "No, like hell, I would accept an invitation of a person who blackmailed the shit out of me." 

The elf who was standing in front of Grey felt like a third wheel, to kill his awkwardness he asked "You both seem to be close."

To his reply, they both instantly replied with "No, he/she is my enemy."

"Oh, then I shall take my seat." said the elf as he walked back to the seat. Apparently, he had forgotten about his argument with Grey. 

The elf's name was Evan Green.

"Are you a corps leader?" asked Grey to Rin.

To which she replied with "No, I have no post, I just randomly do anything I want."

"That's very much like you," commented Grey.

"What do you mean by that?" asked Rin, squinting her eyes. 

"It means, what it means."

After a minute the eighth corp leader entered the conference room, Grey turned to look towards the person that walked into the room. It was someone that Grey had recognized. 

"Hello, Brother Eddie, It's been a while." greeted Grey as he stood up. 

Yes, the eighth Corps leader of the Celestia was Eddie Horns, the big brother of Frank and the person who saved Grey after his fight with Hobgoblin.

Hearing a familiar voice, Eddie turned towards the source of the voice. "Grey?" asked Eddie with a little surprise. "What are you doing here?" asked Eddie.

"I am here as a member of Celestia," answered Grey.

"Oh, that's surprising,", Eddie had a conflicting expression and Grey knew what exactly was going in his mind. 

"You are worried that I have joined an underworld organization right?" asked Grey bluntly. 

Letting out a sigh, Eddie replied "Yes, it does not place a for a child, you have your life ahead of you, you shouldn't be here in a place like this. you are a good kid, you have a bright future ahead of you. I don't know what the princess was thinking while inviting you." 

A gentle smile curved up Grey's lips as he answered "I don't have a bright future, I lost the privilege of having a bright future five years ago."

Even though it was a gentle bright smile, it had extreme sadness in it. 

"Sorry, perhaps I was forcing my point of view over you. But I am really happy to see you here."

"Me too!!, I never thought you would be the leader of some sort of organization. That kind of cool, not gonna lie."

Grey's demeanor changed as if there was no sadness in his face at all. 

Later Eddie went to greet other leaders and Grey got back to his seat beside Rin. Later the ninth and tenth Corps leaders joined the conference room, now the only remaining person was the main leader of the Celestia to appear.

The ninth corps leader was a female with dark blue wavy hair accompanied by light blue shiny eyes. As she entered the room, Grey looked at her and in an instant he realized

This woman---- I have definitely seen someone who looks a lot like her1

With that thought Grey looked at the person who was seated right beside her, Squinting his eyes, Grey stared at her.

"Why are you staring at me so intently?" asked Rin. But before Grey could answer her question, Rin realized the answer, "Yes she is my sister." said Rin

"Makes sense, you both look pretty similar on most parts." 

"On most parts?" asked Rin, curious.

"Yes, the different part is that she is actually beautiful."

In instant, Rai turned all her attention towards Grey, as she asked "Seriously? you are into older women?" 

"Oi oi don't make it should like her thirty or something, she is probably around eighteen year old." 

"That makes her woman," argued Rin.

"Well, that certainly not makes her 'old'"

Rin regained her composure as she sat back in her seat. She opened her mouth saying, "But stay away from her. She is a narcissistic obsessive person. If she thinks that you are hers, She will probably kidnap you or something. 

She has kidnapped many of her boyfriends in past and all of them broke up with her because she is too obsessive. Well, she didn't do anything sexual with them. Actually, she didn't let them do anything sexual to her. She is narcissistic, on the contrary to her obsessive behaviors, she often doesn't let her boyfriend touch her body, since she believes that they don't deserve to touch her."

"Huh? what the --- Why is messed up person like you here?"

"Because this organization needs messed up person like her, and also messed up person like you and me. We are best suited for the underworld, we could not hesitate to kill someone even if the person is good or not, we are messed up people that's why we are here," said Rin. 

Listening to her, Grey couldn't help but chuckle, "Can't argue with that."

"But we are messed up people who will stop other messed up ones," 

After a minute, Hina came and sat beside Grey and Rin. 

"The princess will be joining us very soon." 

"Why do people call her princess?" asked Grey, curious. 

But his question was answered by Rin, as she said "She is the daughter of the Hardy family, the family is also known as the ruling family of Seawoods continent underworld." 

Seawoods is the name of the continent that Grey lives in. 

To Rin's answer, Grey looked extremely confused "Huh? why would she intent to fight against her own family?" 

The thing was, the Inferno was the organization ruled by the Hardy family and the ruling organization of all of the Seawoods continent underworld. That included all the countries in the Seawoods continent, including Amay and Frey nation. 

Celestia was founded to destroy the Inferno organization from its roots.

"She has her own reason, but she had told me that she will this reason to you herself. Apparently, it is something that will greatly interest you. She has a great interest in you for some reason. "

"I see," said Grey as he sank in deep thoughts. 

As they were talking, the person that the entire room was waiting for had arrived. She walked inside the room, in her presence entire room went quiet, as they simultaneously stood in her respect. 

The princess stood in front of her people, the thirteen people that were seated in this room walk beside her to achieve her goal. 

She sat on the chair, as all the eyes of the room were set on her. Opening her mouth she said, 

"Let's begin the first meeting of Celestia." 

She was the leader of Celestia, the princess.
