The Immortal of Zero

Extra Chapter II: How to tame a flirt!

(Days before Princess Henrietta sent Louise and Kai to Albion on a mission)

Kai was having a bad day. He can't join in to Louise's class because of Mr. Colbert. It's not like the professor is angry with him, it's more like the familiar is irritated by the constant questions he's being barraged with; from what kind of power is the Gate of Babylon, to how many weapons are inside it, to what's the difference of each weapon's power. So he decided to skip out of his class... not like he's a student there...

"Another boring day indeed.. If Mr. Colbert isn't so...pressing with his questions, I would be glad to answer them..." sighed Kai, as he walked through Vestri Court. He noticed the patch of damaged land there. "Oh, that's right.. That's the place where Guiche and I dueled.." he groaned, remembering the one-sided event. "Maybe using the Gate is overkill.." he sweatdropped on the afterthought. He then noticed Guiche flirting with another girl. "He never learns."

He walked out of Vestri Court after that. Walking through the dormitories, he heard sobbing through one of the doors. Knocking, the sobbing subsided a bit, then the door opened. It was Montmorency.

"Are you alright?" asked Kai, concerned. But the blonde girl didn't reply, trying to stifle her crying. "Can I come in?"

She nodded, trying not to meet his eye. He went in, and sat at the armchair facing the bed. "So what's wrong?" but she didn't reply again. He took a guess. "Is it Guiche again?"

"Why does he keep cheating on me? Am I not beautiful enough for him?" she wailed, her tears bursting from her eyes.

"No. You are beautiful. He's being an idiot not to notice it." said Kai, smiling. Montmorency smiled in return, with her eyes saying 'Thank you.' "So, you want Guiche set his eyes on you?"

The Water Mage nodded fervently at this, hope shone in her eyes. Then it was dulled quickly as it shined. "But how can you do that?" Kai went near her, then whispered something in her ear. After that, she blushed furiously. "C-can I d-d-do something l-like that?" She stammered.

"If you want him to be permanently yours.. Besides, the Gramont Family is one of the most influential family on Tristain.. under the ValliƩre Family of course." the familiar said sagely, stroking his imaginary beard like an old man.


At the headmaster's office

Headmaster Osmond was busy with some work (or in his case, reading some porn), when he suddenly sneezed at his material.

"I wonder who could be thinking of me?" he said, to no one in particular, before continuing in his reading, now with a slight nosebleed and a perverted giggle.


Back at Montmorency's room

"Are you sure that could work on him?" said Montmorency, as Kai had provided a whip, one that was used on horses.

"Yes.. If you want him to be yours, you have to be forceful about it." said Kai, grinning. 'And to provide some entertainment around here.'

"But... Isn't this illegal? I mean... bullying a student?" she asked warily.

"Oh not at all.. You will only bring discipline on the guilty student.. and that one is none other that the blonde idiot Guiche the Gramont." he laughed a bit. "Oh we are going to make him realize that you are not to be trifled with." he grinned evilly.


Nighttime, Academy Dormitory Hallways

Guiche yawned, after having to flirt with yet another first year girl. He found it odd that Montmorency didn't even berate him all day about his flirting. Usually she would show up everytime he was around, yet nothing of the sort happened.

He was going back to his room, when suddenly he was blindfolded from behind. Trying to remove his blindfold, he found out that his hands and feet are tied as well.


Montmorency's room

Guiche felt the blindfold come off, as he stared at the face of Montmorency, whose face was full of fury. The Earth Mage paled, and tries to get away, realizing too late that he's bound to a chair.

"Hello Guiche. I am sooo glad you came." she said, in a sickly sweet voice, her hand holding a horsewhip. "How was your little trip from the first year girl's dormitories?"

"Mon-mon? I-i c-c-can explain..." Guiche began, but winced when Montmorency lashed on his legs with the whip.

"Oh don't worry about explaining it. I know all about it. You can't resist playing Slave & Master there, right? Only you were the Master." smiled Montmorency, which sent shivers up Guiche's spine. "Why don't we play that game.. only this time, you're the slave."

"B-b-but what's with the whip?" he gestured the whip.

"Oh this? This will ensure that you're loyal to me" grinned Montmorency.

That night, her room was filled with girly screams, though it did not reached the other rooms, as Kai had put up a silencing barrier around it to prevent interruptions. Though, after a few minutes, the only screams heard was "Whip me more! I've been a bad boy!". Kai sweatdropped.

"I hope that I didn't create a masochist." he said, before returning to Louise's room.
