The entire school had been quiet for 2 months as there was nothing eventful besides ash dominating and Locke envy growing to even further lengths
Veil was nervous there was gonna be a huge thing where the king himself comes to academy to see who is chosen by marks if a mark chooses a nobody do not fret it has happened and they can become something but not much at most ss rank not even breaking into sss rank let alone ex
Nine was a bit annoyed she was waiting for so long and the royal family was late how annoying
Veil and lione were eating lunch together deciding that they never talk so it's best to build that connection and trust
Sophine used sound magic ehich is an advanced form of wind to shout "A MANDATORY SCHOOL ASSRMBLY IS UNDER ORDER FOR THE MARKING S-class come immediately to the school auditorium"
all members of s class got up and ran to the auditorium immediately for the marking as it is an event that is extremely important as the humans are currently at war with dwarves , elves , orcs, giants, and angels their only allies being demons & harpies
After about 30 minutes the whole school arrived with s-class in the back which was highest point A- class in front of them and so on until G-class
On the stage their were 15 paintings each having a weird mark but everyone knew each mark was actually a great brand
King Alfred and his two daughters Louise and Cheyanne were on stage

The two sisters Louise and Cheyanne started chanting for 9 minutes then the brands shot toward s-class

king alfred: to think such amazing people were chosen and as a way to show my sincerity I give the sin of sloth back his noble house's status of course it won't still be a archduchy for now it will be a viscounty and he will be given the city of towa
veil was a little surprised he didn't know this body belonged to a fallen family but being a noble was advantageous so he was gonna graciously accept
veil: your majesty I graciously accept and will do my best to bring house storm back to it's former greatness
king alfred: since you are being so polite about it I will allow you to take back one of your families nine heirlooms , design a new family crest and recieve 200 gold coins which may not be much but it will allow you to build house storm
cole: wow veil now your not the only commoner I will talk to my father and his advisors about allying with house storm as it will do good as you are the sin of sloth and destined for greatness and I'm his successor
veil kindly accepted the offer as he trusted a lot and they all had to work together anyway as their will presumably be threats in the future
nia was overcome with an intense hunger for something she couldn't tell what it is but everyone around her seemed to have it and she wanted it
princess louise brought in a who was chained up to nia and said " this is within expectations you hunger for souls you will naturally be able to absorb it just by touching him this has happened to all that inherit the gluttony sin of course in every new brand user the ability is different there are somethings that are always there"
nia walked up to the man and put her hand on his chest and the men in mere seconds dropped to the ground nia was satiated a bit normal food could cover her for a while
all students returned to class where they were dismissed to their dorms
