Or having a tremendous amount of responsibility. He made a big stink about his job lording over the underworld being a 'full-time gig' but really, things just kind of ran themselves down there; death was a constant and the river of the dead kept flowing with no real maintenance or interference. The only thing was...that all-consuming darkness that had to be removed like a clog from a drain. This elaborate illusion was probably more work than everything else he'd ever worked on combined, including his bid for dominance. And it was an ongoing thing. Day and night, he had to make sure this investment in his time and effort was going in the direction he needed it to. Sure, he wasn't alone, but he stood to lose more than any of the other heroes if the underworld was swallowed by the hideous evil he had temporarily diluted.<br/><br/>He looked in on each class as often as he could; he needed to aware of problem students who were in danger of going down the same path as their previous incarnations. There wasn't a great emphasis on paperwork and that sort of thing, no loud bells ringing, it was a more formal environment and he wanted to make the students feel like they were on the honor system in hopes of instilling a sense of personal responsibility and accountability. And he was relying heavily on his undercover hero-students to impress these values upon them too, although their own younger bodies came with their own problems that he had to deal with. This could easily go tits-up and the villain students could become good, while the hero students became evil. Or, worst case scenario, all of them turned evil. But, free will being what it was, he had no way of controlling that directly. At best he could infinitely repeat this loop, though despite his immortality, to have to be lord of this school for eternity, as opposed to the underworld...he would pray for death.<br/><br/>He noted that Mal wasn't in her expected class at that time. Well, that wasn't a good sign. For the reincarnation of the most evil soul he'd ever welcomed into the underworld, surely some special treatment or attention should have been afforded, but...he couldn't single anyone out, or they'd all think they were being painted with the same brush as their 'parents', and have little reason to differ if they were already guilty. As if this endeavor wasn't hard enough already. The only way to make this work effectively was the most difficult imaginable.
