onto the following day. They notice that several students are chatting with one another more frequently than usual as soon as they enter the school. Yuan takes his shoe off and puts it in his locker.

"Hey, good morning," he smiles at the girl next to him who is taking her shoe out.

"Can I ask you something?" "What's this event about?" He looks around as the students around them keep on gossiping.

The girl smiles as she greets him back. "Good morning. I think they are talking about the third-year student from class B who was found unconscious in the basketball team locker room yesterday."

"I see.." Yuan pauses as she bows a little towards the girl, saying "thank you," and starts walking towards the stairs.

"Hey, aren't you going to ask what happened to that student after?"

"I don't care."

"Uwa," Levia replied.

"Anyway, what are you still doing here?" "Remember what we talked about last night?"

Last night, Yuan and Levia discussed this issue about the unknown devil at Yuan's school and came up with a bunch of plans, one of which included splitting apart until they located the devil. It won't matter if they aren't together because Yuan can see them.

On their plan, Yuan will ask for other rumors about supernatural things that have happened in the school recently, while Levia will look around the school manually since one of Yuan's theories is that maybe the devil can somehow make himself untraceable on the map.

after giving Yuan a nod, she turned away from him and walked in the opposite direction.

As Yuan enters his classroom, Rikko suddenly jumps on him, saying

"Yuan, did you hear the story?"

Yuan, though this is probably about Aaron.

"Is this about how you admit that you love eating tights?"

Some of their classmates got shocked and looked at them when the sudden bomb exploded in the room.

"CHICKEN TIGHS, wait, I knew it; you're the one who called my mom from before!" Rikko commented angrily. while Yuan just looks away.

This story is posted elsewhere by the author. Help them out by reading the authentic version.

Rikko gave up and continued, "Ahem, what I'm talking about is the guy next door, you know, Aaron from class B; they said they found him unconscious."

"Yeah, I already heard about it before I went here." Rikko went "oh" as he dropped his head down, looking disappointed.

Yuan sits on the chair with their other classmates because it's almost time for the class to start, and the only thing they are waiting for is their teacher. He looks at the student next to him, which is Rikko, asking

"Is there another rumor about the supernatural stuff in school recently?" "It kind of got my attention."

However, the door slowly opens before Rikko can respond. Rikko immediately sits properly, as does the rest of the class, while they wait for their teacher to come in.

"….."

But even after a couple of seconds, no one came inside the room. Sweat flowed down on some of the students' faces as they made a puzzled expression.

Other students look at each other as they start asking questions.

Yuan's eyes widened as he realized that something was wrong but was obstructed from view. At first, he wondered whether he had lost his ability to see devils, but he quickly dismissed that idea. If he did lose it, he figured, he wouldn't feel this way—like he was suffocating.

The door in the room moved once again, and this time the sound it was making was slightly louder.

*iikkkhhkk*

The door slowly closed, giving everyone an eerie feeling. Rikko started getting really scared as his face became really pale just like the other students.

*bamg!*

Everyone in the room got startled.

"Everyone, please calm down. I'm sure it's just air."

The sound came from Hannah, who stood up from her chair. As the class president, she felt like doing something in this kind of situation.

Yuan looked at the windows on the right side of the room and saw that all of them were closed.

Yup, definitely not air.

Even Hannah thought the same as Yuan, but many people would believe anything—no matter how ridiculous it is—if, in return, it would help them feel better. This is especially true when they are terrified. Since no one has the courage to deny it, many of them start to believe that it is just air.

Hanna's intervention helped everyone settle down, and a few minutes later, the door opened once more, the actual teacher entered, and their lesson resumed as usual.

On the other hand, Yuan is the only student in the class who is still tense and keeps thinking about what just happened. Yet he can still sense something within their classroom, something that gives him the shivers. As a result, sweat is pouring down from his forehead. and he is the only one feeling it.

In the break time

"Yo! Good job, Ms. President!" Rikko called Hanna, who was about to go out of the room. Yuan nodded once beside him as he looked at Hanna.

Hannah smiles, but Yuan notices that she is a little pale.

"Are you ok?"

Hannah looked a little shocked as she answered, "I'm fine. My head is just hurting a little." Anyway, see you guys after lunch."

Rikko and Yuan waved at her as they made their way to the canteen.

Class B: "Hey, you know the guy from class A?" A girl with blond hair is doing her nails as she talks to another girl with the same blond hair color.

"Who?"

"The guy with black hair"

"ohh Yuan?"

"Yeah! The one that's tall and handsome, I planned to ask him out later!"

"wait really? KYYAA!" Both of them screamed at the top of their lungs.

Levia looked at them with disgust on her face, saying

"This girl has terrible taste in men."

"If you ask me, I'd go for a little more innocent-looking and gentle man," Levia said proudly.

As she splits up with Yuan according to their plan, she looks around the school to look for the unidentified devil, but she can't find any, so she thinks she needs to start with the victim, which is Aaron. She remembers that he is from class B next to Yuan's class, so she immediately goes there.

But as she was about to investigate, she got caught up in some girls' talk and might have forgotten her mission. She's just standing next to the two girls who are talking.

"If we start going out, I'll let him do what he wants."

The other girl gasped while saying, "Really?" The other girl nods, and both of them screech one more time.

Levia looked at them with disgust one more time while saying "bitch," which makes you wonder where she learned such a word.
