-6:26 PM-

I was sitting alone at a Cafe, waiting for Haruki to arrive for so much time that I even got a bubble tea.

Haruki walked into the Cafe and after looking around he sat down next to me, tho he was not alone.

"Sorry for being late!" He smiled.

I sipped the bubble tea with the plastic straw.

"Haruki, you see how I am sucking onto this Boba? Imagine that I could be sucking other types of Boba if you weren't late~" I frowned playfully.

"Oh god..." He sighed.

"Ew! You're disgusting!... Like always" Carmilla sighed as well.

"Why did you even bring her here in the first place? I think that I told you to come alone or something I don't remember anymore." I rolled my eyes and noticed how they were holding hands under the table.

"Hey! I'm a part! Why you're treating me like an outsider, Shoji?!" She huffed.

"Well, she wanted to tag along when she heard that I'm going somewhere!" He smiled again.

"Fuck them both... this whole relationship feels so fucking forced, at least to me. But in the end, it's good that she tagged alongside him, I need to know something."

"Hey, Carmilla?"

"What?" She asked curiously.

"Is Mrs. Takahashi a Noble demon, or is she from the lower class?" I asked.

"Noble? Lower class? I remember Lucian talking about nobles..." He then looked over at Carmilla. "Wait... are you a demon, Carmi?!" His mouth hung open from surprise.

"You haven't told your "boyfriend" that you're a demon, Carmilla?" I frowned.

"Yep~! I am a Noble Demon! I couldn't find the right moment to tell you, Haru-Haru... but that doesn't change anything between us, right?!" She asked and leaned closer to him, with a pleading face.

"Pft..." I giggle to myself. "Haru-Haru~" I rolled my eyes playfully.

Haruki looked at her and his smile widened.

"No, I'm just surprised yknow? I would have never guessed!" He then looked over at me with a sparky smile. "And you don't laugh at me, because you see... I'm unintentionally closed to your dream than you are, Shoji~"

"Fuck you!" I sipped the Boba again.

Carmilla then leaned away from him and looked at me. "Oh yeah, your question! Mrs. Takahashi is in fact a Noble, tho her family is much much lower than mine~!" She smirked pridefully.

"What would happen if a Noble suddenly died for no reason in the human world?"

"Shoji, don't tell me..." Haruki gasped.

"It would drag down the demon's family's name and status even further, and also cause an investigation." She said.

"...But if you're thinking about killing her, then I have bad news for you~! She has Authority Type 4, you have no chance of even scratching her!" She said, trying to prevent something like this from happening.

"Really? I mean... I was at Authority Level 1 but managed to do a stalemate, tho you probably have somewhere around Level 3!"

Haruki looked at me curiously. "What do you mean? You fought Carmilla?! When?! Why didn't you tell me?!" He said in frustration.

"Oh... Shoji, first of all, stop referring to 'Types' as 'Levels', because it isn't a stupid game, and second of all you have no idea how Authority Types are scaled, don't you?"

"Why's no one listening to me?!" Haruki said in frustration.

"Shut up for a moment, Haruki." I sighed. "I know that for example someone with Authority Le-... Type 4 couldn't remove a curse that's been cast by someone with Authority Type 5 or greater, and I also know that the amount of Vymir increases as your Authority Type evolves."

Carmilla covers her eyes and sighs. "So you don't know how Authorities are scaled... very well then! I will explain it to you!"

Haruki gave up as he laid his forehead on the table.

"Vymir is directly connected to the soul and your physical body, brain, and everything, think of it as energy and limiter to all existences at the same time. On the other hand, you can consider Authority Types as transformations. Each type scales the amount of Vymir in your body by its predetermined value. The peak human speed is about 10 metres per second and it's the limit to all people with Authority Type 1. The peak speed of a person with Authority Type 2 is about 100 meters per second, making it the limit. On the other hand a person with Authority Type 3, a person like me can accelerate to somewhere around 200 metres per second and it goes on and on. The speed was just the example, but your strength, reaction speed, and many more physical and mental things are also boosted, but that's not the point right now. The point is if you understand how the amount of Vymir is scaled." She sighed and rolled her eyes, looking over at Haruki.

"How do you know all that, Carmi?" Haruki asked in amazement.

"Oh~! I've read a lot of books that Nuzesi wrote before he was killed around~!" She huffed pridefully and kissed him on the cheek.

"Nuzesi?" Haruki said in surprise.

"Yeah! He was one of the Three Great Rulers! He lived around 2300 or 2400 years, but he was killed by his brothers, Lucifer The First and Michael!" She smiled.

"Oh... you know so much, Carmilla... I wonder if you tell me more about it someday..." He said, looking into her eyes.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned in close. "You can always come over, and then we can practice~!" She said playfully.

"Hey! You two! Not out in the public!" I rolled my eyes.

She then leaned away and looked at me. "So you understand, Shoji? You cannot even think about trying to hurt that woman."

"So that's why I was so fast in the morning... and why I had all that pain in my legs after running... I wonder what would happen if I were to run for a longer while..."

"Yeah! I'm not stupid! It scales times two, Square, times two, Square and it just goes like that, right?!"

"She's 400 times faster than me... you're right! I cannot win!" I leaned back on the couch and sipped my Boba.

"Tho I never actually thought about killing her, it wouldn't just magically write my name back onto the student list, but it would bring me a lot of trouble!"

"But Carmilla I have a question."

"Hm?"

I pointed at Haruki. "What Type does he have?"

"Oh~? My Haruki is as strong as Mrs. Takahashi~!" She hugged him tightly.

"Huh? I am? Me?" He asked in surprise and self-amazement.

I stared at him for a second, clenching my teeth. "So this means that Lucian was able to fight some nobles in the end..."

"So what clubs did you guys join? If you already did join one of course." I asked.

"We joined the Scientific Research Club together! And it's kinda fun in there, tho I've been on only one meeting this far!" Haruki said with a big smile on his face.

"Yep! Haruki is right~! It's so fun in there! What club are you going to join, Shoji~? Do you have anything on your list?~" She asked curiously.

Haruki nudged her. "Hey! He was just expelled and you're already making fun of him, that's kinda mean you know?" He pinches her cheek.

I just rolled my eyes in annoyance. "Yeah, can you stop hating for at least a moment, Carmilla?"

She giggled and grabbed Haruki's hand. "No! You two misunderstood me! I just know that you will figure something out, Shoji!" She smiled at me.

My eyes widened as soon as my brain processed what she just said. "She's the last person to believe in me, yet she does...? But you're right Carmilla... I already have a plan..." I giggled softly.

"Carmilla..." Haruki looked at her with surprise.

"What's wrong~? Even he deserves some support from time to time, don't you think so, Haruki~?" She kissed him on the cheek again.

I finished my Boba tea and stood up, holding my hand out to Haruki. "Could you lend me Oozarith, for just one day, I'll bring it back to you tomorrow. I don't have bad intentions this time, I need to use it for a good thing!" I asked with no hint of perversion in my voice.

"He's not lying, Haru-Haru. But what's an 'Oozarith'?" Carmilla asked curiously.

Haruki stood up. "Okay, fine! But just this once!" He said in frustration, but he clearly understood that it was a must.

He snapped his fingers and Oozarith appeared on the couch I was sitting on. It seems that Oozarith is still in the black-haired and silver-eyed girl form from back then, tho this time she's wearing a button-up shirt and a long skirt.

"How can I serve you today, master?" She asked.

"Huh?! What? Who's that girl over there?! Why is she calling you 'master', Haru-Haru?!" She grabbed his collar and shook him.

"I can explain it to you, Carmilla! Just calm down and wait a second!" He said in embarrassment, trying to calm her down.

"Oozarith, follow Shoji's orders till he brings you back to me!" He said.

"Understood!" Oozarith replied.

"See ya tomorrow guys~! I will not be interrupting your argument!" I giggled and left the Cafe with Oozarith.
