nathair1: Thanks.

Please enjoy the next chapter.

Iruma and Alice walked down the hall to the school store when the two of them heard laughing coming from inside the store. Alice stood in front of Iruma and narrowed his eyes as the doors opened and a green blur rushed past them, knocking over a pile of boxes. The two watched as a green-haired demoness jumped out of the pile and laughed before Alice leaned closer to Iruma and whispered, "Clara Valac, she's known as a colossal weirdo,"

Clara ran over to Iruma and smiled, "Hi, I'm Clara, my right foot is Connor, my left foot is Murf and I-" Clara's eyes widened as her cheeks turned red and Iruma's eyes widened in return, "I...who are you?"

"M-my name's Iruma, and it's nice to-"

"Hey!" the three looked up and saw a demon running out of the story before looking at Iruma and Alice, "You, you're Iruma, correct? And that'll make you Asmodeus,"

"Asmodeus?" Clara questioned before the three of them started floating.

"Perhaps you two can take her off our hands," the demon spoke before the three of them began floating away, "Oh dear, it seems they forgot their books," three books began following the trio.

Clara, with a rope around her waist, played in the grass and laughed as Iruma held onto the other end of the rope and slightly smiled, "Iruma sir, we should really get going before-"

"Hey Iruma-kins, Azz-Azz, let's play,"

"Azz-Azz?" Alice looked at Iruma as he walked over to Clara and began untying her, "Iruma sir, doesn't the name she gave you bother you at all?" Iruma hummed and shook his head as he dropped the rope and helped Clara up, "Uh...sir?"

"It's fine, Azz, she's just giving us nicknames," Clara smiled as Iruma patted the top of her head, "So what do you want to play?" Clara's eyes widened as she took Iruma by the hand and led him away, leaving Alice confused.

Hours have passed and exhausted Iruma and Alice laid in the grass as Clara smiled and ran towards them, "C'mon, let's play some more!"

Alice groaned and for ready to speak when Iruma chuckled, "Clara, why don't we play later? We don't have the energy to match yours,"

Clara moaned and pouted before they heard a voice call out, "Hey Clarin,"

"Yocchan," Iruma sat up and watched as Clara ran towards a group of demons.

Iruma narrowed his eyes when he saw a blond demon pat the top of Clara's head and spoke, "I see you got some new owners, huh?"

"Owners? She's not an animal," Iruma muttered under his breath, "Why is Clara letting this bastard talk to her like that?" He watched as Clara tapped the pockets on her skirt and pulled out some ice cream before handing it to the demons and ran back to the duo.

Iruma looked at the demoness on confusion, "What was that? Those demons and pulling the ice cream out of your pocket?"

"That's my family specialty," Clara looked down at the pocket on her skirt, "We can summon anything as long as we've seen it before and Yocchan and his friends ask for stuff and they sometimes play with me,"

"Clara...do you think that they're just using?" Clara slowly frowned as she hung her head, "You shouldn't have to bribe anyone to play with you,"

"But I have to, everyone thinks I'm annoying, so it's my nuisance fee,"

Iruma sighed as he reached up and patted the top of Clara's head and Clara looked up, "You don't have to bribe me and Azz to pay with you. We'll gladly spend time with you," Clara's eyes widened as Iruma looked back and narrowed his eyes, "Azz, I want you to go talk to those demons into leaving Clara alone and to never use her for her ability like that again,"

"I...are you sure, sir?" Iruma hummed and nodded, "Very well, I will see to it that they will leave Valac alone," the two watched as Alice turned and walked away.

Clara looked at Iruma and slightly frowned, "Iruma-kins," Iruma looked back in confusion, "Did you mean it? You and Azz-Azz will play with me whenever?"

Iruma smiled and nodded, "Of course I meant it Clara, and you don't have to bribe us like you did with those clowns," Clara smiled as she hugged him. Iruma's eyes widened before he took a deep breath and returned the embrace.

Clara and Iruma stood in front of Alice, his clothes slightly charred, "Well Iruma sir, I talked to those delinquents and they promised to stay the hell away from Valac,"

"Uh, right, I just hope you didn't cause any damage and-" before Iruma could finish, Alice fell back as a green paint blob hit him, "Azz?"

"Paintball fight!" Clara laughed before handing Iruma a paint blob, "Here Iruma-kins, you throw one,"

"Iruma sir!"

"You okay too, Azz-Azz," Clara handed him a paint blob, "The loser has to buy the winner a juice," she jumped back and began throwing paint at the two, which Iruma really dodged and Alice threw paint back at Clara as Clara and Iruma laughed.

The three, covered in paint, sat under a tree and panted. Clara stood up and brushed some of the paint off her clothes before she looked back and smiled, "I need to get home. Mommy needs help watching my brothers and sisters, but we'll play more tomorrow, right?"

Alice groaned in annoyance as Iruma smiled and nodded, "Of course, we'll see you tomorrow Clara," Clara nodded before she turned and began walking away.

Iruma stood up and stretched, "Well, I guess i should head home too and get cleaned up. Grandpa's probably going be upset when he sees me covered in paint,"

"I suppose I should head home as well, sir," Alice stood up and the two of them walked out of the schoolyard.

I was going to have this chapter out sooner, but a few things happened. Enjoy.
