"Date~ Date~ Date with Young Master!"
Maria forced out of the room and said she'll be back after changing. I could her sing well through the walls though. Of course, before leaving, I had napped Alec's doll and was now burying it behind the building.
I told you I'll dig you a grave, Alec. I am a man true to his words. You may thank later.
"Do you think he'll die of suffocation?" Titania asked.
Good question.
I heightened my senses and tried to listen to Alec's voice. Once I was sure I would, I smacked the dried doll into a tree.
"HAAAK!"
Oh?
This ti, I pinched its hands.
"Ahhhh!"
The legs.
"Kuuuh!"
"Hey, this is fun!"
"Choke him!"
I covered the doll's mouth and nose. It didn't have any, so I covered its entire face.
"Ummm ummm!"
He was choking too!
I guess I can't just bury him then. Holding in a sigh, I dug just half a hole and planted the doll inside. After that, I poured so water on it in hope that he'll back to blossom like a flower.
I did my best, Alec. Don't bla if a dog cos around and rips your head off now.
With that done, I moved back toward the front door and waited a while, leaning against the wall. I heard a loud thud halfway through followed by a louder 'What was I thinkingggg!'
"She's finally back to normal."
"We almost died."
Bet we did.
The door opened eventually. I peeked inside and saw that all that had covered the place gone. Instead, now inside was an impeccably clean room that fitted Maria's image.
"Um, young master, did you wait too long?"
Standing in front of the door was Maria in a beautiful white sundress. The clothes fluttered slightly in the wind as they highlighted her build. A long white hat on her head hid her face in the shade while her slick black hair was left open. In her hands was a similar white purse, petite yet perfectly fitting her attire. She also wore white heels to go with it.
"Maria, you look beautiful." I said. "The dress and the purse especially go well together."
Maria was startled, then she stepped out and tapped the top of my head.
"Young master, you've grown up."
"What's with that? Haha."
"No just… I don't think you would have said all that when you were a kid."
"I've never…"
No.
I was a kid.
To think I could manage everything without anyone else. To think I was fine all on my own.
I wasn't against it yet. I was sure that I was strong alone.
But others weren't my weakness.
I would be the most shaless person in the world if I believed that line of thought, especially after relying on others so much.
"You're right," I said. "I never would have."
Maria smiled, the faint way she breathed out always had a charming sound.
"Well then!" I raised my arm. "Shall we?"
Maria wrapped her arm around mine and nodded.
"Let's!"
And with that, we set off on our date.
***
The first thing I did was drag Maria over to the cat cafe in the Sachertorte street.
It was not because I wanted to et the kitties again, absolutely not. It was only because I was sure she would like it too.
The bell tolled and the door opened. I held it open and let Maria step inside first.
The cat girl shopkeeper turned my way.
"Oh, Mr. Demon Killer is here again!" She said. "Who's the lady?"
"My date," I answered, earning a surprised yelp from Maria.
I snapped my fingers and brought the pouch from before again. I tossed the pouch over and smirked. "Two of us, please give us sothing to drink from the rest."
"Sure, sign here. The lady can go on in."
Maria nodded and opened the divide. The number of cats imdiately jumped on her as she stepped inside. There was catnip for custors to use already in there so that was convenient too, it didn't seem like she would need it though.
"I didn't sign before either…" I said as I walked over to the reception when the cat girl shook her head.
"There's no signs, mister. What in the world are you doing?"
"Excuse ?"
"Didn't you go all the way to hell to rescue your girlfriend? Noa Roselle was it? Did it get to your head, why are you two timing?"
Noa Roselle?
My girlfriend?
Hello? That sacred spot is reserved for a person whose face you bastards aren't even allowed to see! What do you an my girlfriend?
"Who said that girl is my girlfriend?"
"What do you an? Everyone in the academy knows. It's such a lovely tale, why are you two-timing now. I should have known, all n are scum."
The entire academy?
"You an everyone in the academy?"
"Pretty much. No point in hiding it now, weird mister."
***
In a wintry cold room where the sun's breeze reached. The single strongest faction beside the student council in all of the academy was underway a round table eting with its top executives.
The students, on a small break, took the opportunity to share so light chat while their infallible leader, the lady with a veil covering her face, spun her quill alone at the head.
A lot of planning was needed for the upcoming festival. There were many things on line here. From facilities and budgets to prestige.
"Did you hear about the demon killer student?" A piece of gossip interested that leader whose every breath exuded grace and whose every step scread beauty.
"Oh! I know, that guy who went all the way to hell to rescue his girlfriend right? I wish we could have taken him in our faction."
The lady raised her head.
"Yeah, both that girl Noa and that guy, Eugene…"
"What?"
The room fell silent.
Their infallible leader had spoken.
All of them shut up, worried they had done sothing wrong.
"What did you just say?"
"Um…" All gazes turned toward the student that was speaking.
"That… it would have been good to have them in our faction. I apologize for presenting a weak front, mam!"
"No. After that. The nas."
"Nas?"
Her voice grew colder and colder, sending chills down everyone's spine.
"The na of that couple."
"Ah. Noa Roselle, and Eugene Hall? It's a love story that's the talk of the entire academy—"
"HAH!"
The executives all shut up again.
Their infallible leader… scoffed? The sa one?
"Hahahaha… Eugene Hall's girlfriend? Love story! Hahahaha!"
It wasn't the end of the crazy.
She was also laughing.
The students decided to leave a letter to their loved ones today. They were sure the end was near.
