I woke up in my room, my body was all sore and it was painful to stand up.

"Finally... Friday... I was waiting for this day to arrive for so long... if we can call it three days long haha~."

"Tho... I didn't sleep well... I was experimenting too much tonight..." I let out a loud yawn.

I stretched my limbs and body overall.

"Ouchh! It hurts so fucking much! Ehh... probably the side effects from all these tortures we've been through ~!"

I grabbed some fresh underwear and clothes from my wardrobe and I walked out of my room, heading towards the bathroom.

After I took a shower and I was dressing up, I looked in the mirror and noticed that I put on some muscle.

"Oh? What is this? My chest got slightly bigger... arms too!"

I turned around and looked at the reflection of my back.

"My back also got slightly bigger!"

I looked down at my legs.

"Oh! Those also have gotten bigger!"

"I wonder if it's because of this training we've gone through... or just because Vymir is somehow making our muscle fibers pop... causing hypertrophy."

I turned my head to look at the bloodstained high-school uniform which is hung on a hanger.

"My friend, I think that after this day you'll be thrown into the wardrobe, and not come out for a loooong time~!"

I traced my finger over the bloody stains.

"I've washed you like eight times yesterday, but those stains just wouldn't come off... I mean you should be thankful that I'm not throwing you away~!"

"Everything's already in there~"

I threw the uniform into my already full bag and walked out of the bathroom with it.

I walked back into my room.

"Oh! I've almost forgotten about you... y'know... I think that our partnership will be nice~!"

I opened the drawer and took the Revolver, which Sebastian gave me yesterday.

"Shoji...? You're already going to school? I'm hungry..." She sneezed, "But I don't feel good enough to cook today... Can you make something for me... please?" Kaori asked while pouting.

I managed to put the revolver in my heavy bag before she could have noticed it.

"Oh thank God... it was so fucking close! I need to start closing the doors, haha~!"

I turned around and walked up to Kaori, ruffling her hair softly.

"Fine, fine, you small brat." I smiled at her.

"Hmph"

Five minutes later.

"I need to defeat Carmilla today, because if I lose... then she will kill me and forget everything the next day... and if she does then she might become a danger for the whole family and not just me... I cannot let that happen... I love them... they're the most important people to me... Haruki is also very important to me... after all, he's my best friend... but hurting, or threatening him would be the last thing Carmilla would ever do... Sebas can fight for himself... he's very strong after all..."

"I pray for plan A to work because plan B is too dangerous... and would probably lead to the worst possible outcome..."

"And I also need to fulfill Lucian's wish... I need to protect "her", tho I don't know who is. I've thought about it for a while yesterday... after all he told me was that I know her, and to protect her... but how can I protect someone who I don't know!" I close my eyes in frustration.

"Wait what?!" I looked down at the frying pan, my eyes wide in surprise.

"Since when do I care for some stranger's safety... I mean, I have known Sebas for five days!"

"And also the request! Why do I want to fulfill a request from someone who wants to kill me?!"

"Maybe... just maybe... that feeling from back then... that warm and fuzzy feeling... maybe I just want to experience it again, and again?"

"BROTHER! YOU'RE BURNING MY EGGS!" Kaori screamed in horror.

"Oh..." I looked down at the burned eggs that were on the pan.

"Why did you do that, big brother?! Just why?! You're cruel~!"

"Okay! Okay! Sorry! I got lost in thought!" I rolled my eyes

I took out my wallet and took some money out of it, leaving it on the table.

"I'll order you a pizza when I'm walking, okay?" I grabbed my heavy bag and started walking towards the front door.

"Yaaaay~! Bye-bye, Big Brotheeer~! Thanks for the pizza~!" She said cheerfully.

I rolled my eyes and left the house.
