"See you tomorrow," Rikko waves his hands as he looks away and starts walking faster in a different direction while he still terrified from what happened earlier.

"See you tomorrow," Yuan remarks before taking out a book from his bag and beginning to read it as he moves along.

"Hey, hey, wazzap. You're Yuan, right? I know it's you! it says so on the picture."

Levia talks as she walks beside Yuan circling him around, but Yuan just keeps on reading as he walk ignoring every noise around him. They are like an owner and a very excited dog having a walk.

"Hey, I know you can hear me! You just talked to me not so long ago! Please respond!"

Levia starts having worries that he might really not hear her based on how he is behaving, but she still keeps on trying. She thought that she finally found someone that she could communicate with, feeling hopeful, but because that hope start to crumbles in front of her face, she slips some sadness into her voice.

"Hey, can you hear me?" I've been alone for days... I tried my best." She looks at him with wavering eyes as her hands tremble slightly..

Yuan comes to a halt as he sigh annoyingly, Levias' face lights up again, but instead of speaking, Yuan takes his earphones from his bag and puts them in his ear, then resumes walking as he continues reading his book.

This did not make Levia sad. Her face, which is so close to breaking, opens her mouth slightly as it transforms into a smile, she became lively once again, Even if he did not speak to her, he still display a proof that he can hear and see her, which is a good thing for Levia.

"I'll make sure you will notice me!" She laughs as she begins to follow Yuan EVERYWHERE.

Three days had passed since their fateful encounter, and Yuan is at his limit. His eyes are just like a dead fish staring into the distance saying "uhhh" while there's a devil girl dancing around him as she keeps saying the word "hey, hey, hey" and sometimes singing gibberish words like "Nants ingonyama bagithi baba" over and over.

A person who lives in darkness and isolation hates noise the most. If you put an introvert inside a lively party, he surely will die. and what's happening to Yuan right now is not far from real torture.

Yuan stops walking as he massages his forehead with his right hand, saying, "Ugh." "Can you please shut up?"

The devil girl's eyes sparkle not because of his harsh words but because, for the first time since they met, he finally talks to her again.

"What's your deal?" "Why do you keep doing this?" Yuan's eyes change from those of a dead fish to those that scream, 'I had enough of this.'

Levia went "hehe" as she slightly giggled and jumped in front of him, causing her long black hair to dance in the air. It waved right next to his face, and even if she didn't produce any smell, he felt like, in that moment, a scent of flowers was in the air. Yuan's eyes slightly opened bewildered at the scene that he just witnessed.

Stolen story; please report.

"Well, you see Yuan... eh.. can I call you Yuan?"

Yuan's eyebrows twitched as Levia continued. "Well, you see, Yuan, I'm the devil that's assigned to deal with you."

Yuan's eyes were half closed as he replied, "what? Are you going to kill me?" a direct question devoid of any emotion.

She was shocked by the statement that it makes her break character, saying, "Huh?" O-Of course not, why would I do such a thing? What do you take me for?, a devil?"

"yes. That's exactly what you are." Yuan with the same half closed eyes on his face.

"That's besides the point!" As she walks in front of him, she turns around and extends her arms towards Yuan's cheeks as if she were going to touch them. Yuan got startled by the sudden movement and was unable to move.

"I'm just here for one thing!" *steps steps* She moved backwards while keeping eye contact and made a cute pose as she put one hand on her hips and pointed the other hand at Yuan.

Yuan gathered his composure back because of that ridiculous pose and asked her a question.

"Let me guess, you're here to whisper fucked up things to me like every other devil and will try to destroy my life?"

"that's right, I'm here to teach you how to do prank—, sorry what?"

Both of them went "eh" at the same time, as if it were the most unexpected thing ever.

At Yuans room.

"....."

"So let me get this straight, you're a soul guide, whatever that is, and you're here to evaluate my soul?"

Yuan is observing the girl sitting on her knees on the ground like a young child receiving instruction while he is seated on his bed.

She nods at his statement as she says, "Yes."

"And you think you can do your job by doing pranks?"

"y-yes…" Levia lowers her head

"How is that even make sense?"

"hehe" Levia while looking down giggles as if she's been waiting for that question for a long time. She points her finger upwards as if she is trying to teach someone.

"Well, you see, to evaluate someone's soul, the devil needs to try to make the humans do something evil!" At that moment, Yuan remembers the whispers of every devil he came across and tried to ignore.

"I knew it. You want to destroy my life."

"No, that's not it." Levia strongly waves her hands and says, "Humans won't do anything evil if they don't really want it." They will only do it if they truly want to and succumb to our words. [Devils]"

She then puts her checkered hand on her chin as she looks sideways, and then she continues.

"When I was young Gilda, um.. my maid always told me that one of the most evil things I could do was to play pranks, so ever since then, I've researched everything about it and studied the ways!"

Yuan thought immediately, 'I'm pretty sure she just told you that so you won't get in her way, but I'll keep quiet and let you continue.' while holding his laughter.

Yuan made a sarcastic face as he opened his palm in front of Levia, asking her, "pranking huh..?"

Levia stands and puts both hands on her waist, saying "Yes." as proudly as she can.

"..."

*pffft--* "HAHAHAHHA" Yuan bursts out laughing as he lays down on his bed with tears in his eyes. He never thought that he would laugh this hard again ever since that time when he was a kid and he and Rikko first met. It's like when he found a new toy. He wipes the tears from his eyes and exhales. He sits back down on his bed and looks at the young devil, smiling cheerfully for the first time.

"you. You're an interesting one," he says on a lighter note, but Levia takes it as a compliment and blushes slightly.

She looked at the young man smiling cheerfully in front of her, she got mesmerized by the view because she always thought that this man was incapable of smiling based on the time that they were together.

"So?" he asked, startled by the young man's sudden remark.

"What's your name?" She pauses a little, then giggles, showing how happy she is because of that question. She feels like for the first time, he started seeing her for real and at last, she is not alone anymore.

"My name is Levia Mclancle! You can call me Levia."

"I see."

Levia smiled and paused for a while as she waited for him to continue speaking, but no words came out after that, so she went, "Eh?" Is that it?" Yuan nods.

"...This feels so..... empty."
