"How should we rate him? And what about his nickname?"
Matsuri came forward and asked this question. This situation was already out so entire event must be categorised. Hearing this Oni Tsune looked at Matsuri with deep though before speaking.
"Rate him at least as SS. Nickname is already created. Hollow, that is how ghouls call him. Inform all First-Classes and above to be very carefull and not to engage in close combat and just observe."
Ordered Oni Tsune to Yoshitoki and Matsuri. Then he closed both of his eyes and meeting was ended. Both Washuu's then lightly bowed and left the chairman's office.
=============================================
Lucien and Itori were currently sitting in dining room, which was rather huge room. As in most mansions for rich people and nobles, here was too huge and long wooden table, capable to accomodate over twenty people with ease. But as Lucien knew that such huge table impractical they soon moved to living room to dine. There was fireplace and piano music playing so it was more romantic.
"Do you believe that demons exist?"
This question took Itori by suprise. Because demons were always things of fantasy and folklore, she didn't ever gave it serious thought. From certain perspective even ghouls could be classified as demons. Especially in eyes of ordinary humans of this world.
"I don't know. Who knows what is out there."
Lucien smiled at her answer and took a little book from his Cross Crest. It was so-call Demon Guide. A little book, written by some Sacred Devourer Ghoul, several decades ago. He then presented it to patriarch of the Aeon House in that time and since then this book became a basic guide, containing most of demons who appeared.
Itori took the book and started flipping through the pages and looking at various illustration inside the book. At first she thought that this was some fantasy book, but soon she saw that mark, on last page of book. It was same as the golden coin, which Lucien gifted her, huge words "AEON".
"They are real?"
Asked Itori wish a little shaked voice. Information about demons being real was rather huge shock to her. It would be huge schock to every modern person who considered these creatures like nothing more than fairy-tail. But reality could be sometimes more cruel than anything else.
"Yes, they are. They are living in my homeland, The Blood Island and we are fighting them for centuries. If not for this do you think that Washuu's could be so brazen in everything they are doing?"
Explanied about situation with demons. It was true that if threat of demons and that spatial rift didn't exist, the Washuu Clan would be already massacred long time ago for their treason against the race.
"Flesh of demons is more useful than those of humans. If ghoul practise cannibalism on other ghouls, his RC Level would be increasing very quickly. But when you eat human flesh you will barely gain any increase in your RC Level. But with eating flesh of demons you will increase your RC Level more quickly. This is because demons are innately more stronger than humans and have more powerful bodies."
Lucien was telling her some of common sense among Sacred Devourer Ghoul race from the Blood Island. As ordinary ghoul she won't be able to perfectly digest flesh of demon but when she will undergo Devourerification, from ordinary ghoul to Sacred Devourer Ghoul. But that was in the distant future.
Itori blinked her eyes a few times, before thing about everything Lucien had said to her. All new informaton were carefully premeditated. She knew that by telling her all these thing, he was placing enormous trust to her.
"Thank you, Lucien."
Lucien smiled lightly as he understoon meaning of her words.
=============================================
Lucien sat together with Itori on the sofa, in the living room. They watched fire burning in the fireplace as she gently leaned over his arm. In the backround music was playing, it was Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata. Pretty romantic atmosphere filled the room and it was very enjoyable for both of them.
Everything was perfect until Darkwalker walked to the room and whisped something to Lucien's ear. Itori woke up to this, cause he created rather big noise as he was opening and closing door.
"What it is?"
She wondered what happened. Because for subordinate to interrupt such important event as date was simply unforgivable for Lucien. But whe she saw that he wasn't angry or something, she found out that it must be something serious.
"You will see, in TV News."
Said Lucien and turned on the TV. On the news channel there was already programm running. With falshy latters written: BREAKING NEWS!. Modereator was slightly younger woman, around her thirties with pretty face and long black hair.
"We are bringing you the breaking news. Today at the afternoon there was fight beetween CCG and one ghoul in 14th Ward, Nakano Ward. CCG suffered heavey loses as two First-Class Ghoul Investigators were killed in an action and one Rank 1 Ghoul Investigator was also killed. Chairmain of the CCG, Washuu Tsuneyoshi personally gave order and rating to the ghoul, who killed investigators since it was new ghoul, who just recetly came to the Tokyo, by results of the investigations. Ghoul nicknamed as 'Hollow' was rated as extremely dangerous and deathly with rating SS~. He wears white-red skeletal mask over his face and is clothed like samurai with exception of long red coat he always wears."
When Lucien heard that he was rather suprised at such fast response from the Washuu Clan. He though they would actually try to hide that matter, but suprisingly they annouced it to the news.
"You see? I am already famous!"
Laughed Lucien at this breaking news. He was in good mood and that he rated him so high was very good for his ego. His nickname was also good, he didn't want to have some creepy or weird nickname. His nicnkame 'Hollow' was dominating, scary and powerful sounding.
Iori was too happy for him and did something what Lucien didn't await. She gently kissed his lips what completely took him by suprise. This was his first kiss. It lasted for a short time, but memory at this moment would be eternal.
Lucien was still in state of shock and Itori was looking at the fireplace with slightly red cheeks. None of them was talking and silence was ruling the room.
"Congratulations for being famous, Hollow."
She actually congratulated him and then she closed her eyes and leaned over him arm, probably trying to sleep. Lucien didn't know what to do so he too closed his eyes and tried to sleep. Because everything was new to him, he never had been or relationship, even this kiss was his first for both of his lives.
After some time both of them actually fell asleep and spent entire night, together sleeping on the sofa, while holding hands.
