Kotori: Papa I'm going out for a while.
Atsuo: Okay stay safe.
Aiya: Don't cause any trouble okay?
Kotori: I wont~
While Kaneki and the Higanbana girls were still on their trip, Kotori was happily enjoying her day with a nice walk outside.
Kotori: Hehe~ I wonder how it's going for Kaneki-chan and his friends?
But all she could think is how her brother and friends are doing on their trip.
Kotori: Best Onee-chan of the decade goes to me! I wonder what else I could do to help Kaneki-chan, Miku-chan, Shino-chan, and Yuuka-chan out?
Kotori's thoughts*
(Maybe I should put Kaneki-chan and Miku-chan in a room where they can't escape until they hugged for an hour? Or maybe-)
She even started to think of ways to help Kaneki's friends as well.
But as she was thinking of ways to help them out.
Ring~!
Her phone began to ring, she was getting a call.
"Yo Kotori how are you?"
It was Robecca she was calling to check up on Kotori.
Kotori: I'm doing fine. Get this! Get this! I've been helping out Kaneki-chan and his friends! And they're getting closer and closer again! Hehe~! I'm so proud!
"That's good to hear Kotori well done. Anyways I have another reason why I called you"
Kotori: Really? What is it?
"The Council is going to have a meeting"
Kotori: Eh? Why?
"I don't know the details myself, but many members including us the pillars are being summoned"
Kotori: Eh~ it's unusual for someone who isn't at a higher ranking to summon us, it must be very important huh?
"Correct if you want to decline you're free to do so"
Kotori: Don't worry I'll come it's my responsibility as the main pillar after all.
"I'll see you later then"
Kotori: See ya.
Beep!
The call then ended.
Kotori: Better get going now. Darkness travel!
Drip~!
Kotori: Sigh~ why does my ability do this?
Kotori began to use Darkness travel, but there was a problem. Due to Kaneki being very far away, Kotori's Darkness travel copy was a lot weaker compared to when Kaneki was close.
And the black goo that normally would appear out of nowhere were now dripping from her hands to the ground in small amounts.
Kotori: This is going to take a while.
3 minutes later~
After 3 minutes a small pool of black goo finally formed on the ground.
Kotori: Finally.
Splash!
With her way of transport now finished she jumped in and teleported to the meeting.
Querxes: Hey Kotori took you a while.
Immediately she was greeted by Querxes.
Kotori: Apologies. My copied abilities are a lot weaker with Kaneki-chan very far away.
Querxes: It's alright. Anyways us and the other pillars are being summoned by the research division.
Kotori: Alright. To the Council meeting room then.
The Council. It is a organization that existed for nearly two thousand years as long as the Clad of Black wings.
The Council was formed by the original 7 Demon Knights and acted as a united army against the first Demon lord: Lucifer and his own forces.
After the defeat of Lucifer, the Council continued to assist the Demon Knights throughout the ages.
The Cult that worship's the first Demon lord, better known as the Clad of Black wings had tormented the Demon Knights over the years.
And the Council alongside the Demon Knights hunted them down but we're unable to destroy them until Kaneki appeared.
Apart from hunting the Clad of Black Wings. The Council also works to fix environments that are destroyed due to pollution and over harvesting.
They give stable jobs to many unfortunate families who struggle a lot and provide free education for children as well.
The Council also works to rehabilitate former criminals (depending on the crime) so they could have normal lives in society once released.
And many more to help the people of the world. Why? Because the Council exist to assist the Demon Knights and their goal of creating "a world of eternal love and peace".
And the Council is not willing to sacrifice their members.
(Author: I'll probably make aa more detailed information chapter regarding the Council in a future chapter)
Kotori: Hello research division!
Kotori then entered a room filled with members of the Council's research division.
As their division's name suggest they specialize is research, more specifically research around the Clad of Black Wings.
Slam!
Kiryu: Yo we're here.
Arie: Sorry we took a while
Ara: We were a bit busy after all.
Kirin: So did you all find anything?
The rest of Kaneki's Sensei's came into the room.
???: Yes we found some interesting data in the last Base of the Clad of Black wings.
Arie: Isn't that the one Kaneki destroyed?
Kotori: Yup. I'm surprised you guys were able to find something there.
Kiryu: Well then? Spill the beans.
???: Yes Ma'am. Turn on the projector.
???: Yessir!
The room darkened as they turned on the projector.
And what was being shown was a mural.
Everyone: !!!
Everyone in the room was speechless upon seeing the mural. It showed a fiery landscape filled with many giant beast devouring the people, and in the center of it sits Demon.
Kirin: What is this mural about?
???: From the data we've gathered it is said to be a prophecy one that depicts the end of the world.
All 7: The end of the world?!
Nod*
Arie: That is horrifying.
Kiryu: Wait what's that text at the bottom?
Kiryu noticed a text saying "ሠⶴቹክ ፕⶴቹ ቹጮየቹዪዐዪ ቻልረረነ, ጎ ሠጎረረ ዪጎነቹ ልፏልጎክ" at the bottom of the mural.
???: We apologize. We haven't translated it yet, it seemed to be ancient demonic text. We'll do our best to translate it.
Kirin: This is very concerning.
Querxes: I don't feel too good.
Just seeing the mural that depicts the end of the world was filling almost everyone in the room with so much dread.
Kotori: It's alright everyone there's nothing to be worried about.
But Kotori was the exception.
???: Ai-sama what do you mean?
Kotori: This Prophecy is most likely never going to happen anymore, as we know the Clad of Black wings were trying to bring back the fallen one for a long time. The closest they've gotten to it was when they caught my little sister and see how that turned out.
She was reassured everyone in the room, and surprisingly.
???: I do agree with Kotori-sama, we had many files that has many plans about bringing the fallen one back but non ever succeed.
Arie: Hmm... I guess you're right. Maybe given enough time the Clad of Black Wings might've succeeded but now that they're eliminated their prophecy will never happen.
Querxes: Yeah I guess.
???: Oh... So we don't...
The lead researcher was a bit disappointed thinking their research would be halted.
Kotori: That doesn't mean you guys should stop researching, continue your research.
But Kotori allowed them to continue on their research.
???: Thank you! We'll do our best!
Kotori: Well then I'll be going now, I still have some stuff to do.
Everyone: Bye~
Kotori then left the room and started to use Darkness travel again.
(End of the world, what a joke with Kaneki-chan destroying the Clad of Black Wings that prophecy will never come to be)
Kotori: Now I'll have to wait until this stupid pool is done.
Kotori had no worry's about the prophecy with the Clad of Black Wings now gone.
Meanwhile~
Ryueki: GET OUT OF MY HEAD!
"ⶴልⶴልⶴልⶴልⶴልⶴል!"
