3rd Chapter.
As Zeru woke up.
"*Yawn, now what to…" he then notices an arm wrapped around him.
"Really?" He then turned to cover to see a teal haired women wearing a black silk lingerie.
The teal hair women began to move and opened her eyes.
"*Yawn* Morning." Greeted Natalia.
"…You were supposed to sleep in the guest room." He said with a deadpanned expression.
"I got a hang over, give me some slack, and can you lower the volume?" she gripped her head from her headache.
"*Sigh* Make sure to dress appropriately, before Issei gets an early gasm."
"Fine. So what are you going to do today?"
"Hm, just gonna go with the flow and see what happens." He simply said as he got his change of clothes heading to the shower.
"You're really boring."
"Whatever."
After the shower, he was now wearing a black v neck long sleeve shirt with the sleeves rolled up, jeans, and sneakers.
"Good morning *yawn*"
"Good morning Zeru-kun." Greeted his mother.
"Aniki!"
Just as Zeru was about to sit down to eat breakfast, he was suddenly pulled from behind. Zeru was then inside the room of his brother which was plain but had some posters of topless girls and other otakuish ecchi memorabilia.
"Sup bro?"
His younger brother was on knees bowing down to him.
"ONEGAI!"
"What?"
"I need you to buy me and my friends tickets!"
"Okay…What for?"
"For an anime convention."
"Oh is that it? Okay…Wait a minute for what reason besides the sexy girl cosplaying, do you want to guy to the point of bowing down to me like this? What is the real reason you and you're friends want to be there?" he asks with is arms crossed with his face now in interrogation mode.
"Eh? Well I just want to go to a con is all?"
"Really? Is there a certain panel or guest you want to see?"
"Well…"
"Please tell me or I'll tell our parents what happened last year when I took you to that café and you accidentally…"
"GAHH! IT'S BECAUSE KABEN PINKY WILL BE THERE!"
"You mean Momozono Momo?"
"IT'S MOMO-CHAN YOU BAKAYARO!" he retorted pointing at his brother dramatically.
"*Sigh*"
"PLEASE THIS IS THE ONLY CONVENTION SHE'LL BE COMING AS A GUEST!" he begged.
"Just wait until some random person posts the panel on Youtube."
"THAT AIN'T GOOD ENOUGH I WANT TO SEE HER FOR REALL WITH MY OWN EYES! SMELL HER FRAGERANCE AND MOST OF ALL…AIR GROPE HER OPPAAAIII!" he yelled dramatically which made the background change behind him into a blue sky with clouds and the heaven's light showering upon him, making his intention seem pure.
"…She's just an idol."
"A Tokusatsu Idol!" he retorted.
"Yeah a Tokusatsu idol starring in a show full of M rated fanservice which will destroy the minds of children and make older single males fap." He thought.
Seeing his brother's determination, he couldn't help but pity for his blindness in his harsh path known as Perverseness.
"Alright then I'll see what can I do, when's the convention?"
"Next week."
"Fine I'll see what I can do."
Issei's eyes then turned into stars as he immediately glomped him.
"Issei…. I didn't know you swing this way."
Issei then realized what he was doing and.
"GAH." He backed away.
"So does this mean you're…"
"I'M NOT GAY!" he yelled.
"Really? What did you think of that Otome?"
Issei's face turned red, remembering the super awkwardness he had experienced last night.
"I take it you loved it?"
Suddenly a box was thrown at him, which he caught it.
"Burn that thing to the ground!" Issei yelled.
"*Sigh* Visual Novels aren't all about female fanservice you know." He then left his brother's room.
As he left his brother's room, he saw his aunt now dressed properly wearing a navy long sleeve shirt and shorts… okay more specifally booty shorts.
"*Yawn* What was that all about?"
"Nothing just teasing my brother is all."
"Well next time keep it down? *yawn*"
"I'm sorry for your disturbance in your well needed rest."
"Geez, you know how to humble."
"I'm just being polite is all. So what will you be doing today?"
"Dunno, might just hang out here for a bit and do whatever seems intriguing."
"I see, well then I'll be leaving." Zeru said as he headed downstairs.
As Zeru was walking.
"Hm, might as well check to see what Kuoh Academy will look like.
"Zeru-kun!"
"*Sigh*" He turned around to see Touko running to him.
"Ohayo, Zeru-kun." She greeted him as she caught up to him.
"Ohayo, Senpai."
Touko's puffed her cheeks upon being called senpai even though they have been close friends since elementary school.
"Senpai?"
"Hmph." She pouted looking away from him.
Seeing her like that brought a smile to his face, enjoying how irritated she looked.
"Sadist." She commented seeing his look of enjoyment on his face.
"I am, who I am." He chuckled.
"So where are you heading off to?"
"I just felt like seeing what my new high school will look like?"
"You could've walked with me to school last year to see that."
"Sorry I did not want to gain the attention of girls in an all girl school, if you know what I mean?"
"Hmph."
"So where's Tsukumo?"
"He's off buying sweets."
"I see."
"Come on then, let's go." Touko then pulled his arm, dragging him.
Kuoh Academy.
As they arrived at that the school.
"Ara~ When did this happen?" Touko said in surprise seeing that there was now a construction sight at the area around the school.
Zeru then notices a notice sign.
[Due to the increase in students soon to be attending Kuoh Acdemy, a new school building will be built, which will be finished before the start of the school year. The original building is still intact, and it is currently used for a new club.]
"A new club?" Touko said in surprise.
"Hm, must be due to the devils attending."
"Devils?"
"I looked at the current student roster attending and it seemed someone of the Gremory Clan is attending."
"I see. Zeru are you…"
"I won't antagonize with them don't worry. But I will be critical of them based on their personality even if they're female."
Touko then placed her hand on his shoulder, trying to ease him.
"Thank you, Touko…Senpai."
"Mou~ Stop calling me that and even if the devils are girls please be nice to them."
"Sorry, I just love seeing your disgruntled expression. And no I won't be nice to girls that I am not familiar with." He chuckled patting her head, since he was a couple centimeters taller than her.
RING
"Hold on let me answer this… Hello? Raiga?"
"Hey, I heard from Issei that Momo-chan will be attending this years anime convention get me a ticket too!"
"Why should I do that?"
"Because we're friends?"
"Keep going."
"Tch, I'll pay you."
"Really, you're willing to pay the ten IOU's you owe?"
"Come on it's Momo-chaan!"
"Hold on for a bit…."
"Hey don't ditch me!"
"Hey Satsuki. Yeah, your bf plans on attending an anime convention, reason being is to see that ecchi tokusatsu actress… Yes… Really?...Okay I'll tell him… I'm currently with Touko-senpai, near Kuoh. Turns out they're constructing a new building…Alright sure…Okay. Bye. *Switches back to Raiga* Hey buddy good news you can go."
"HELL YEAH I HAVE THE BEST GF EVA!"
"You have to buy her some souvenirs."
"Fine…"
"I'll give you a budget of fifty thousand yen as your budget, I'll send you her list."
"Only fifty thousand?"
"Wanna double the IOUs?"
"Fine… Bye."
"*Sigh*"
"I take it everything went well now?" Satsuki asks.
"Yeah." He sighed from exhaustion from the conversation.
"So what do you want to do?"
"Dunno, I was just planning on doing whatever comes to my mind."
"Well how about we do a mission together?"
"Ara~ Aren't you bold to ask me out."
Touko immediately blushed.
"Hey!"
The two then turned to see their friend Satsuki coming to them.
"What are you doing here?"
"What? Just because I have a sort of BF, doesn't mean I can't spend time with my friends. Plus he's doing chores."
"I see. Well I thinking of heading to the mall, to buy some stuff." Zeru said.
"Well lets go then."Touko suggested.
"Didn't you two go there already?"
"It wouldn't hurt to buy something that we overlooked."
"*Sigh* And my greed bites me in the butt."
Mall.
Zeru then decided to stop by at a local occult shop which sold authentic supernatural items.
"Ah Zeru welcome." Greeted the store owner.
"Hello Wallace-san." Zeru greeted.
"Need something particular?"
"No, just browsing and restocking on items."
"I see then."
Zeru the headed to the section where the healing items were sold.
"Hm better stock up on some ether, let's oh a sale hmm only for two fifty yen. Better buy ten then. Lets see ten potions for nine seventy yen, kay I'll buy nine. I should order more later."
After picking the healing items, he then decided to look at the enhancement items.
"Let see I'll buy five defense and attack boost potions hm that makes about one thousand nine hundred yen. Now I need a new spell amplifier… Lets see should I pick one for doubling the effects or increasing the time limit of how long the spell lasts?... I'll buy those , once I'm able to gain full access to the rest of mana."
He then stared at the magical items.
"Hm, I should try to find out which is my main element soon. But that can wait. Hm the element rings prices have gone down, they each cost a thousand yen?"
"If you're wondering about the price drop, try one of them and you'll see." Wallace advised.
Zeru then put on a ring with a red gem. He then clenched his hand as he transferred a bit of his mana causing the ring's gem to ignite a fiery aura. Feeling the rings energy, mana increased a slight bit and then noticed that the glow was faint.
"So this can only use one to two spells?"
"Yep, the stones I have now are E to F ranked. Most of the high ranked stones are used by the Magic Associations. But I should have C-B ranked stones in about five months."
"I see then I'll take these then, he takes two rings one was the fire ring and the other was of a purple gem."
With that he was done with his shopping.
As he got out of the store.
"Hm that's about three thousand and two twenty yen I spent. Let's see what else I can buy."
As he walked by an anime shop, something caught his eye. He immiedalty ran to the window with his fore head pressed against the window.
"This is…"
What he saw was a large plushie about fifteen inches long and was that of a brown cat grinning with a large head, yellow eyes, It's body was long, it had catapiller like legs ,and the patterns on it's fur made it look like a bus.
"Nekobasu from My Neighbor Totoro…." He said in awe, with a face of a child in awe with sparkles in his eyes.
When he saw the price, it was about thirty two hundred yen. He would buy it by impulse, but since he put a budget on himself. But even though he had enough, he was cautious on the other things to buy. So for now he'll mark that plushy as one of his holy grails.
"Soon I'll have you Nekobasu… soon…" he muttered.
"Ufufu~ as usual when it comes to nekos or anything cute, you always have that cute childish look."
Zeru turned to see Sataski and Touko giggling.
"I'll be back..." He then entered the store.
Later after that he was holding bag containing the cat bus and he had a huge smile on his face with some sparkles of innocence around him.
"You caved into your urges huh?" Satsuki teased.
"I'm too weak against Neko related things." He admitted.
"What about a neko girl?" Satsuki suggested.
The Neko lover than gave his friend a dead pan look which just said 'Hell no.'
"I take at as a no then."
"*Sigh* Oh I better call and get those tickets. *dials his phone* Hello it's me, I need four anime convention tickets that's starting next week… I'll pay for them as ususal….How much….FIVE HUNDERED THOUSAND YEN?!" he yelled outraged causing everyone in the mall to be startled.
"Zeru-kun, calm down." Touko advised.
"Let's take it somewhere else." Satsuki said as she pushed her friend somewhere else, seeing that he his teeth were grinding.
They were outside now.
"How the mutha fucking hell would you charge that much for four convention tickets?! They only cost about fifty five hundred for the five-week attendees… Oh don't tell me you're a fan of that lewd show….I don't give a flying fuck if that show is the show all man love,,You might as well fap to porn parodies of a children's shows then I mean look at Yo Gabba Gabba and tell me that red thing does not look like a freaking D… You want me to tell the Yakuza what you do with their daily budgets you kept a hold off ,which I give you the same amount as back up?...Yeah thought so , send me four tickets and I won't tell the Yakuza on you….Bye pleasure doing business with you. *hangs up the phone.* I swear what is the big deal with Kaben Rider Pinky? *sigh*"
"You okay now?" Touko asks.
"Yes I'm fine, I'm super duper fine. Heck I'm on cloud niiine high on rainbows."
"High on rainbows?" Satsuki said.
"I'm stressed right now." He sighed.
Touko and Satsuki giggled
"So now what?"
"Oh that reminds, you and Tsukumo's uniforms should arrive in the mail later today.
"Greeaaat." He said with a hint of disinterest.
"You better call me, to let me know that you got your uniform."
"Why?"
"So I can take a picture of both you and Tsukumo wearing the uniforms." Touko answered.
"…Touko be honest, you have a thing for younger guys don't you?"
"WHAT!?" she screamed while blushing red.
"Come on, it's not nice to keep it in. Just say it." He said with an understanding tone, but had a devilish aura.
"Mou!~ Why do you have to always tease me like that!"
"Because it's fun." He stroked her cheek causing her to blush even more.
"You know, you have a high potential of being a womanizer." Satsuki commented.
"Really?"
Touko swatted his arm away from her cheek.
Zeru then took a sniff of his hand that was hit by her's.
"*sniff* Ara~ What is this scent…Strawberries?" he smirked causing Touko to emit an aura of anger.
"Uh oh….Bye." he then ran off as he transferred his shopping bag into his personal storage dimension.
"ZERU-KUUN!" Touko chased after the teasing boy.
Satsuki giggled and ran after her friends.
Zeru was now running around the small forest. He then ran then ran at the tree and his shoes began to glow, as he was able to run up the tree. With that he sat on a sturdy branch.
"Maybe I should ask Satsuki to teach me how to do it properly, instead of using my magic." He mused
He then opened his phone and browsed through his pictures, he then stopped at one photo and stared at it. It was a picture of him when he was ten years old and he was standing behind the girl with a bunny shirt and he rested his arms on her head since she was an inch shorter than and she had a look of irritation.
"Heh, wonder if I should call her? It's been three years now." He asked himself musing whether he should call his childhood friend during his days in the orphanage.
"Zeeerruuu-kuuun!" said a voice.
Zeru then looked down to see a certain bronze haired senpai now holding a broad sword with a gold guard and a large yellow crosses on both sides of the blade.
"Shit."
"Come on out Zeru-kun.*slashes a small tree down* I just want to talk." She said holding her sword in a two-hand grip and she had a smile of an eager hunter.
"Talk? More like possibility of being killed."
"You went to far with the teasing." Commented Satsuki who was standing on the branch next to him, with perfect balance.
"Hey, I am who I am. So do you think you're mom or dad have the time to teach me some shinobi tricks?"
"Dunno, but I can teach you also."
"Sorry not sure if a genin is good for me." He chuckled.
"Well then you're on your own." Satsuki smiled as she kicked him of the branch.
"AAAHH!"
"See you next fall."
As he fell straight down from the tree.
"Phew there's bush, okay soft landing that's great." He commented seeing the possibility of a soft landing.
As his falling body made contact with the bush.
"Oof, okay there's some thorns in the bushes…Ouch *sniff* wait what's that…GAH! WHO THE FUCK CRAPS HERE?!" he immediately popped out the bush backing away from it. His clothes were now slightly covered in brown stains and some leaves.
"There you are!" Touko yelled pointing her sword at him.
"Okay, Touko-senpai, I get it I went too far with my teasing. But look at me. Satsuki kicked me off from a tree branch and I landed on a bush which had thorns *points the red marks he got on his cheeks from the thorns.* Also look, I'm covered in shit now! So please please , I've already got my karma. Just don't attack me, please!"
Touko laughed seeing how Zeru looked now and the way how he pleaded for mercy.
"So Touko-senpai, we cool now?" he asks with hope.
But unfortunately…
"Nope." Touko smiled as she charged at him.
"Oh come on!" he yelled outraged. He then brought out his forearm, which then materialized the white disc object. Which then erected the round green energy making the shield.
As the sword made contact with the edge of the shield, as it grinded against the sword with it's buzz saw like blade.
"Come on Touko-senpai please stop?"
"Nope, I now have the sudden urge to beat the shit out of you now. Think of this as a Kouhai's punishment for irritating their senpai."
"But were we've been childhood friends." He retorted as he struggled against block the sword as it pushed him back alittle."
"Well that's karma for you." Touko said as she added more pressure to her sword, which then slowly cut through the shield.
"Dammit, the defense was decent against projectile weapons. Guess it still ineffective against elemental attribute type weapons as well." He commented on the weapon so far.
He then created a magic circle as he kicked on to it, pushing him back a couple of inches. With that he immediately threw the round boomerang at his friend.
Touko swatted the shield away, causing it return back to him.
"Shit, durability needs more work and crap the shield generator is slightly damaged *noticing the cracks*"
"Give up?" Touko asks.
"As if I would ever.. .* Feels a blade pressed against his neck* Satsuki why?" he asks his friend seeing that she was standing behind him with a kunai pressed against his neck..
"Sorry, but I'm on the side of my fellow women."
"*Sigh* Fine I give up." He said as he raised his arms in surrender.
Satsuki put her kunai away and as Touko walked up to her friend.
"OOF!" he groaned in pain as Touko jabbed with the hilt of her sword into his gut, making him fall to his knees holding his stomach.
"There karma resolved." Touko smiled as her holy sword transformed into a silver ring on her right hand.
"Guh, that hurts. Didn't your parents say to use Eon for self defense?" He groaned.
"I was using for self defense, I was using it against a bully that insulted Me." she smiled innocently
"Well that's what you get." Satsuki added, as she took a picture of him.
"What value will that picture have? " he asked as he managed to stand up.
"It'll prove that you're weak and pathetic."
"Point taken. Now if you excuse I need to go take back home and take a shower again."
"How about we come to your house also? It's been a while since we've been there."
"Don't you people always hang at my house sometimes. Besides it hasn't been awhile the last time we all got together was during finals week."
"Why do you have to do that?" Touko sighed, at her friends thoroughness.
Zeru shrugged as he left.
Hyoudou Residence.
"Tadamai." Zeru greeted.
"Oh, you're back." Natalia said.
"Hello, Natailia-san." The two girls greeted.
"Hoh, what's this double date?" Natalia smirked.
"Satsuki's already taken and I just happened to encounter Senpai."
Touko pouted at him.
"Is that so…Why are you covered in shit?"
"Karma happened. I'm gonna go take a shower now."
"Just to let you know you're mother went out shopping and your brother is off doing who knows what."
"Kay." He said heading upstairs.
After the shower he was now wearing a white t shirt with a chibi black neko on the center, and sweat pants.
As he headed into his room.
"Why are you girls in my room?"
"What is that much of a big deal? Nice shirt by the way." Satsuki asks while looking around his room.
"Whatever."
He then notices Touko starring at a particular picture.
"*Giggle* I didn't know you put this picture out."
Zeru then starred at the photo in the frame. It was during his days elementary school and it had picture of him, Raiga, Satsuki, Tsukumo, and Touko and they were all smiling.
Zeru smiled seeing the picture.
CLICK
Zeru turned to see Touko with her phone out and it had a flash.
"Really?"
"What? This is the only time you ever smiled genuinely."
"Really don't I always smile genuinely? But for you to take a picture of me like that is quite bold."
Touko blushed as she hid her face behind her phone.
"Hey, your friend's brother is here." Natalia called out.
"Tsukumo's here? Guess he used that ability of his."
Downstairs was the silver haired teen eating some chips, while holding a bag filled with more snacks.
"Hey Tsukumo." Zeru greeted his friend.
"Hi Zeru."
"Hi Tsukumo." Touko greeted her brother.
"Touko-chan, how come you didn't call to let me know where you were." He said with a sadden face.
"Eh, well it was all Zeru-kun's fault for teasing me and then he…"
"It's important to let your family know where you are." Zeru added in, making Touko glare at him.
"Next time Touko-chan shouldn't act so independent." Tsukumo said.
"Mou~" Touko whined.
Sanada Residence.
[Come on dude, lets go out and wreck some shit.] said the voice coming from the sheathed red sword.
"Shut up, I just need to clean this room and we'll be able to go out."
[That's what you said an hour ago, and it still looks like shit.]
"Tch, wonder how Shamans deal with their guardian ghosts."
[I'm a fucking spirit not a ghost you douchebag. There's a difference!] Retorted the spirt.
"You wanna throw down?"
Suddenly his sword began glow, as the sword floated in the air unsheathed.
[Well bro lets go!] the spirit of Fire taunted.
"Oh it's like that huh? Fine *picks up a katana hanging from his dresser* Bring it!"
Just as the heated duel was about to begin.
"WILL YOU TWO SHUT UP!"
"OUCH!"
[GUH!]
In an instant the two were knocked out. Raiga was lying down on top of a stack of his special magazines, which was now ruined. The red sword was lying on the floor as stars were twirling around in dizziness.
"Mataku~ I can't believe Zeru-chan let you have that thing. Oh well now off to visit him~"
"Shotacon…"
"What was that *cracks her knuckles*"
"Nothing…"
"Good." She then left.
[Dude, is your sister is fucking OP?]
"Dude you don't even know the meaning of OP*gets up* I better clean this quick."
Back to the Hyoudou Residence.
"This is the new club that's going to use the now old school building? Occult Reasearch Club?" Zeru said in a dumbfound tone, after looking it up on his laptop
"An Occult Research Club? That's interesting." Touko commented.
"So it looks like your school will have people searching for bigfoot? " Satsuki teased.
"*Sigh* Must be a cover up so the devils can use the building: Zeru sighed.
"So are you two going to join one of the sports club?" Satsuki asks to the two athletes.
Tsukumo nodded sine he plans on joining the Tennis club.
"Nope, not gonna join any club." Zeru answered in a lazy tone.
"Eh why not?"
"Not interested."
"Don't you have a rep as a prodigy?"
"Nope, if anyone wants to play a game of basketball against me then they'll find out, if I live up to the rep or not. Besides I wasn't the ace of the team anyway, I was just the PG."
"So you're going to spend your years in highschool being lazy?"
"Not lazy, I'll still be an honor student as well. So I'm maintain my good record."
"Oh by the way who's Himejima Akeno?"
Zeru eyes widened when he saw Satsuki holding his phone with the new contact he added revealed.
"Eh, who's Himejima?" Touko asks Zeru who was rubbing his temple.
"Come who is she?" Satsuki nudges on his elbow.
"Yeah, who is she?" Natalia asks sitting on the couch across from him.
He then closed his laptop and took a deep breath.
"Himejima Akeno is a girl that I simply met by chance, at the Himejima Shrine. Which turns out that her family owned the shrine and she will be living there when school starts and she's currently living with her friends family."
"Okay and what does she look like?" his aunt asks with a cheshire smile.
"Fine. She's kind of about near my height by a couple centimeters, she has long black tied into a pony tail with an orange ribbon. She has violet eyes but a slightly lighter shade than mine."
"Okay, and what's her bust size?" Natalia asks smirking.
"I'm not the type of person that stares at another girls chest. So skip that."
"What's she like?"
"Apparently she also has the same enjoyment in teasing as much as me, she seems to be nice. That's all I got from what I can tell."
"So she's an S then?" Natalia asks.
"Dunno."
"So are you going to start spending time with her then, since you'll be in the same year as her?" Touko asks teasingly.
"Doubt it, I don't see any benefit in associating myself with her."
"Why must there always be benefit for you associate with other people?"
"Because there must be benefit in ones action." He simply answered
"Really and what was your benefit for hanging out with us?" Touko asks.
"Simple, I was able to gain some friends that I love very much." He said with a genuine smile. Causing his friends to smile.
"So basically you don't want other people to enter your circle huh?"
"Pretty much. Now can we please get rid of this topic *opens his laptop* So I decide I'll be doing something tonight."
"Which is?"
"Breaking in to the old school building."
"….You've got to be kidding me." Touko said dumbfounded.
"What? Nobody is using it yet, so why not? It'll be like last year when I had to break into the school and change Raiga's grades to at least average."
"…"
"Okay I'll just go by myself then."
KNOCK KNOCK.
"Guh, who is it now." Zeru then went to the door and opened it.
As he looked to see who it was.
"Zeru-chaan!~" He was immediately hugged by the older sister of his idiot friend.
"Hello Hisako-san." He said barely, as his lungs were slightly squeezed.
"Mou~ Would you stop adding that honorific? You treat me if I was a stranger." She whined.
"*Sigh* Why are you even here?"
Hisako then let go off him.
"Can't I visit my cute kouhai which I whished was my brother instead of the idoit?"
"So basically it's to fulfill your adulterated desire to spend time with a boy that's about five years younger than you?" he asks bluntly.
"Ah mou~ Why do you have to make me sound like a shotacon?"
"Cause you are one and you need help." Said a voice from behind.
They looked to see it was Raiga and he was panting.
"I see you're done with your chores." Zeru commented.
"Yeah what of it? Come on lets go do a mission!"
"Sorry not interested, gonna plan on breaking into a school building."
"Why the fuck would you do that?"
"Cause I'm curious."
"Oh, you're here." Satsuki said in a disinterest tone, standing next to Zeru.
"What kind of greeting is that?!"
"Same one I give to all idiots."
"Aw, Satsuki-chan it isn't healthy to be a tsundere." Zeru teased patting her shoulder, only for him to receive a punch to his gut.
"Guh, at least you didn't punch the face." He groaned as he was in fetal position.
"Hmph."
After a couple of seconds Zeru recovered and got up.
"My advice, learn to use your new sword and Flaemis-san's powers before you go out and wreck havoc."
[See how your friend there, speaks in a polite tone towards me.] said the voice of the fire spirit in Raiga's head.
"Shut up!" he yelled, making him look like he was yelling at something imaginary or he had tourettes.
"Okay he has an imaginary friend now." Zeru commented.
The idoit's older sister and girlfriend sighed.
"I don't' have an imaginary friend! It's my spirit that's talking to me!" He retorted
"Whatever." He said in an uncaring tone.
"So Zeru-chan, are you really going to sneak into a school building?" Hisako asks.
"Yep."
"Well might as well join you then~" she said happily.
"Shouldn't you get a part time job?"
"Mou~ Zeru-chan sounds like a parent~"
Zeru rubbed his temple in irritation.
Suddenly.
"Yo, Zeru-kun."
Zeru turned to see the mailman.
"Oh Yamada-san, hello."
"Here's your package."
Zeru then received a box, and it had a certain school's name on it.
"Oh it's from Kuoh Academy." Hisako commented.
Suddenly footsteps were rushing behind him.
"Ah, it came." Touko said upon seeing the package.
"…" Zeru immediately went outside took a few steps back from the house.
"Zeru-kun?"
Zeru then got into position and held the box as if he was ready to shoot a basket.
"Zeru-kun! Don't!"
Ignoring everything, a magic circle was created on his hands and when he released the shot. The magic circle glowed as it made the box fly straight into his room's window. Luckily the window was opened and it landed on the center of his room.
"Three pointer." He smirked as he headed back inside.
"Why did you do that?" Touko asks.
"Because I felt like it and I didn't want to wear the uniform." He shrugged.
"Why not?" asks Satsuki.
"Hey I want to see you in your new uniform." Natalia said.
"Shouldn't you go out?"
"Nope, being here is more interesting now." She smirked.
"Tch, well I ain't…"
"Do it or Nekobasu gets it…"
Zeru immediately tensed seeing that Satsuki was holding his new holy grail plushe with a kunai. His expression then turned into that of a child's when they see a bully threatning to break or ruin their precious possessions.
"Please don't…" he said in a soft fearful tone and his eyes were now in puppy dog mode.
Seeing that look, Satsuki couldn't help but feel guilty in the least.
"Then try on the uniform."
"…Fine. *mumble* " He pouted as he went upstairs to but on the new uniform.
After about ten minutes.
"Are you ready yet?"
"…"
"Well?"
"Fine I'm done."
As Zeru opened the door.
What he was wearing now as the Kuoh Acdemey's ever first male uniform. The uniform consisted of a consists of a black blazer with white accents over a white, long-sleeved button-down shirt with a black ribbon on the collar, matching black pants, and brown dress shoes.
Seeing him wear that uniform, it made him look civil and a possibility of eye candy if the other girls were to see him. Plus the outfit made him look like a certain butler from a certain manga series that involves a boy with an eye patch, if his hair was arranged in that butler's style.
"Pfft. Dude you look like a fucking butler." Raiga laughed at how the uniform didn't' suit him at all."
"It looks good on you. Pfft." Satsuki hold in her laugh.
A vein pulsed on his forehead, as he manages to maintain his calm look.
"Hm, I think I know a friend that's into that stuff, want me to call her?" Natalia teased.
"Pfft Zeru-kun. It's fine." Touko giggled.
"Aw, Zeru-chan is soo handsome~" Hisako complimented.
"Ara~ Minnna-san what are you… Zeru-kun you got you're uniform already. Sugoi, you look so handsome in it." His mother complimented.
"Ka-sama…" he muttered in an irate tone, holding in the urge to destroy the uniform.
"Ah, I'll get the camera." His mother said.
"Don't need to. Got one already." Natalia said holding the camera.
"I hate you much." Zeru said mentally.
"I guess I'll take one too." Satsuki said as she took out her phone along with Touko.
With that the assault of the paparazzi began.
After the cameras stopped their attack.
"Man that reminds me of that butler café we did in our class, during our school's festival." Raiga laughed.
Zeru immediately walked up to his friend and.
"GUH!"
Kneed him in the face and stomped him in the gut with is dress shoes on.
"I'm taking the uniform off." Zeru said as he closed the door.
Immediately, he came out of his room, wearing his current casual wear.
"So, you hate it don't you?" Touko asks.
"Yes."
"Why, cause it makes you look like a shitsuji?"
Hearing that word, Zeru fists tightened.
"Are you still mad about that thing we did during our school's festival?" Satsuki asks.
"Hmph," Zeru pouted.
Tsukumo then rummaged through his bag of sweet and handed him a pack of chocolate flavored pocky.
"Zeru." Tsukumo offered.
Zeru then took the candy and started eating.
"Thanks Tsukumo." He thanked his friend, who had the habit of giving sweets to people whenever they're depressed to cheer them up.
As he ate the pocky.
"So besides that butler look, what else do you hate about it."
"*munch* The white accents on the blazer, makes it look fucking dumb, and the whole uniform seems suitable for one of those schools only high class people can attend. Geez, either the administrator is just being eccentric or an idoit."
"So what are you going to do?"
"Simple pay the school some money and let me wear different clothing."
"But Zeru-chan you look so good in that uniform~" Hisako commented
"Guh can't you leave already baka anego!" her brother yelled.
BONK
Riaga was then lying down on the floor with a comically sized flashing red bump.
"*Sigh* So is anyone going to join me tonight?"
"Well at least the girl uniforms are good."
"See, Raiga-kun is okay with the school's uniforms."
"I mean those white shirts they wear, really show off their bust sizes. So pretty much you're in oppai heaven school version"
Hearing that perverted commented Satsuki and Touko punched him at his head knocking him out once again.
Old Kuoh Academy Building.
So later at night.
Zeru then began to pick the lock of the front door.
"I can't believe you're doing this." Touko said in disappointment.
"Are you still saying that? I've done more shit like this tones of times."
After a couple of minutes.
KACHINK
The door was then opened.
"Alright time to enter."
"Tch, I can't believe that we're sneaking in school."
"Hey it's your fault for being bored and following me. So shut up." Zeru retorted.
As they walked through the building which was a dark and it had a particular feeling from watching a horror film that involved schools.
"Alright then Zeru-kun we shouldn't stay too long and…Zeru-kun?" Hisako then saw that the mischievous one was gone.
"He wondered off on his own again. Tsukumo can you locate him?" Touko asked her brother."
Tsukumo then closed his eyes and try to focus sensing the runaway, using his unique sensor ability, God's Voice. As he scanned around the building listening for the heartbeat and thoughts of his friend. But eventually…
"Sorry Touko-chan, he blocked me."
Touko face palmed herself at her friend's independency.
Zeru was then walking through the hallways.
"Hm, all this space for a clubhouse is really unnecessary. Bet Tsukumo was using his God's ears, luckily I had some enchantments to block my thoughts and make it seem like my heartbeat stopped, well it'll only last for about ten minutes."
He then entered into another classroom, but as he tried to open the door it was locked.
"Now, what do we have here?" he smirked with curiosity.
As he then tried to pick the lock…
BZZT
Sparks then suddenly came out as he inserted his lock pick into the doorknob.
"Magic lock eh? Heh well then better do this then." Zeru then grip onto the door knob, as a magic circle appeared on the knob. The circle began to turn clockwise and counter clockwise as if it was trying to unlock a combination lock.
"This is going to take awhile." He commented.
So after about five minutes.
KACHINK
The magical lock was unlocked.
"Okay let's see what we have here *opens the door* now this is interesting." As he opened the door it was just a classroom but what was intriguing was the drawn magic circles around the room and based on the formulas they seem to be used for sealing.
Zeru then closed the door.
"THERE YOU ARE!"
He then turned to see the others.
"Oh hey." He simply waved as he dodged an incoming punch from his older by a year senpai.
"Did you find something interesting?"Tsukumo asks, who was licking on a lollipop.
"Yep, turns out it seems they're going to be holding up a monster."
"What do you mean by that?" asked Touko.
"Dunno, but there were some sealing formulas in that room. So that's what I'm guessing. So should we head upstairs and look for the clubroom?"
Later after that they were in front of the Principles office.
"Great, ol snobo is using this room as the club room." Zeru sighed.
"Do you have a thing towards snobs?"
"Nope, just like ripping on them." Zeru answered
Instead of wasting his time picking at the door and unlocking it by magic circle..
CRASH
He then placed a strength enhancement magic circle on the door and kicked it, causing the door to crash down.
"WHY'D YOU DO THAT?!" Touko yelled.
"It's easier that way, besides I can fix it." Zeru said as he and the others entered.
Upon entering the room.
"You've got to be kidding me." Zeru he sighed seeing the room.
"They changed it." Touko commented noticing how the principles office looked now.
The clubroom interior is a wood-paneled room with Victorian-style coaches and chairs along the walls.
"What the fuck!" Raiga said in a sort of outraged tone starring at a certain room in the clubroom..
"What is it? Zeru asked.
"They have a bedroom and a bathroom. Why can't principle offices be like this. I mean seriously how many times you see a student itching to take a wizz and there ain't no bathroom in their fucking office. And a bed in case if a hot female principle plans to 'f' a male student. This room is genius!"
"…Remind me, why you picked him?" Zeru asks Satsuki.
"Blame my parents for living next door to him and me having a long friendship with him."
"There there." He soothed as he placed his hand on her shoulder out of sympathy.
On the right side end corner of the room, he saw a magic circle printed on to the floor and it had unique symbol.
"So it is the Gremory Clan and it's also teleportation circle" He commented seeing the formulas on the circle.
"Zeru, don't you think we stayed here enough?" Tsukumo asks, as he was now eating chips.
"Hold on." he then placed many magic circles around the room, which then faded into the texture of the room, matching the demonic energy of the building.
"Now I'm done." He smiled with satisfaction.
"What did you do?" Touko asks.
"Oh nothing, just some tricks I plan on using later in the future." He then brought out his hand at the fallen door, which then began to repair himself.
"Wonder if I say Reparo, I'll get a new spell?"
"Seriously, you're gonna go Harry Potter?" Riaga said in a dumbfound tone.
"Just wondering."
With that they left the soon to be clubhouse of the Occult Research Club.
"Hold on *takes out a white ball, presses on it and throws it into the building and closes the door.*"
"What did you do."
"Used a smoke bomb to get rid of our scent."
"Do you have to be thorough?"
"Yes." He smiled.
Hyoudou Residence.
Zeru managed to successfully transport to his room using a home teleport circle he carved onto his floor.
"*Phew* Alright nobody's in my room, succubus auntie is in the other room." Zeru then created a magic circle, which had the crest of the Greek God of Fire.
"Hm, oh it's you kid, what do you need?" asked the blacksmith god.
"I got the complete data for Boomerang Shield."
"Okay good, put the weapon through the circle and it'll be transported to my side." Hephaestus advised.
Zeru then took the white disc object and placed it through the communication circle. From the other side, a hand reached through the circle from Hephaestus's side. He then took the white disc.
"So what damaged it?" he asked noticing the cracks.
"A holy sword." Zeru answered.
"I see. Well the recoil rod is still in progress since the one you used was a prototype."
"So you're making the finalized version then?"
"Yeah, Boomerang shield will be complete soon since it was a simple weapon to create. But Recoil Rod will take some time."
"Okay."
"Don't forget to go to Nidavellir, you have until a week."
"Yeah okay. Night *disperses the circle*"
With that Zeru changed into a white t-shirt and black shorts and got to bed as he cuddled with his Nekobasu plushy.
Hope everyone enjoyed the chapter and remember to review.
