Chapter 6: Chapter 5
"Do you want me to apologize, again?" he raised his brow inquired, watching the girl all along.
"That's the least…" she shrugged, rolling her eyes, then snapping her fingers.
Immediately, the exploded items started to puzzle themselves together, like time-reversed around them, climbing back to their place and fusing together perfectly. Even the wall repaired itself.
"Fascinating…" the man just muttered, inspecting the whole process with great detail.
"I am not the one who rob others from their world, then trying to enslave them!"
"I said… that was not my fault." the man with the double-colored hair sighed, turning back to the bartender girl. "It was most likely a rogue part of our organization. Or someone else. We still trying to find it out…"
"You better…" she prepared some coffee, putting it before the man, who in return looked at her with a raised brow, his eyes betraying his questioning attitude.
"We are in a café; people come here to drink." she put it short, and the man nodded.
"Thank you…"
"It will be a billion yen…" said right away the girl, making the man hesitate to touch the drink.
"That's ridiculous! I will…"
"You have my papers?" and in the next moment, she cut his word.
"Tch! Fine!" reaching under his coat, the man threw a file before her. "Here it is! By the way? Is that really your real name? It is weird! Did you recognized, if you take the first letters…"
"I know… I know…" she cut in his words once more, obliging bored. "Hmm, maybe…" Checking the documents, she hummed. "Compared, your organization operates in complete secrecy in the human world. You work painfully slow…"
"Ha! It is not like we need such papers! We just use magic to change the memories of the simple people, brainwashing them to cooperate. Those we can't affect, we have our own ways to deal with. I can't understand why you even need legal papers! It was a hassle to get them! The registration of a person who exists not, and making sure the authorities can't recognize the forgery is a lot of work. We not only needed to create your registry, but a whole branch of the family behind you to not be suspicious!"
"Figures…" she just chuckled, wondering how these people managed to remain in secret until now. "But better make sure than sorry later. You as well would fare better if not always rely on your fancy magic. One day it may let you down. Sometimes…" she watched the small newton cradle sitting on one of the tables, serving as decoration. "…Doing things manually is more satisfying and handy. Magic is not a solution for everything."
"Speaking from experience?" the man inquired, leaning closer.
"Eh, who knows… let just say; I saw enough magic users who caught off guard and died a painful death when their magic refused to operate: one way or another. Often their face painted a quite grotesque picture of disbelief, frozen on their face in their last moments. Fufufuf…"
Yeah, it often happened in YGGDRASIL. Usually, when she turned off magic use for a few moments in a certain area. It gave her enough time to catch others off guard and turn them a shish-kebab with her swords.
"Oh! It sounds more and more interesting! Care to share a few stories? Hmm? I am more and more curious about the place where you came from." the fallen general smiled excited, yet calm. Still, in his eyes, the light twinkled, almost like an excited child.
"Why should I? You are a researcher, no?" she chuckled deviously. "Where is the fun if I tell you everything? Fufufu… go and figure out yourself what's true, and what's not. Without challenge, there is no growth!" and then, she teased him back, making the man slump on the counter depressed.
"Ugh! You are the worst! The enemy of progress!"
"I know, I know…" she chuckled, reaching a certain document. "By the way… what is this?" she showed the man a document — a small plastic card where the girl's picture inserted nicely, offering a flat, unamused expression.
"That's…" looking at the card, Azazel started to smile. "That's a student card! Your student card!"
"What for? I am not a student…" she shrugged, earning an even wider smirk from the man.
"But you are! Because from tomorrow…!" the fallen general raised himself, pointing up, then the girl. "…You will attend the Kuoh Academy!"
"Eh!? And why should I? What will be with my café if am gone?"
"One, I have an assignment for you…" the man held up his finger, signing, he had further points to say.
"And?"
"Two! You have your help! I remember there was a butler with you yesterday." and indeed! 'Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!'
In the next moment, a figure appeared from the backrooms.
"Oho! Am I called!?" in the next moment, a smiling youth in his early twenties stepped out from the backrooms.
His face similarly tanned like the girl's, hair white, eyes red. A dashing man every girl would fall for. If you see things that way, the two could be even relatives — an older brother and sister.
'Just what I needed... this guy pops up in the worst of the moments...'
True, she said, she will not waste high ranked summons just to be maids, and anything similar.
But keeping one around — which can adequately disguise him/herself, and possessed enough strength to repel most attackers — was worth keeping around, summons which she knows is permanent and was able to do everything mentioned above.
Plus… a few menial tasks.
'I still need to test out a few of my summons…' she sighed, groaning deeply inward.
Due to the numerous work around the café and her other duties — connected establishing her new life — she had absolutely no time and mood to do this.
Under her few experiments she managed to squeeze in her tight timetable, she realized, most summons required sacrifice to be permanent — for example, bodies, or raw material.
The better the said sacrifice was, the stronger the summon become. Without it, the summon still appeared, but after a few days, they disappeared.
This man not far from her — the person who could be even her relative — for example, was such a permanent servant she could call. One of the few she was able to cite without using her [Creation] powers.
'Why me…?'
Yet, after a few days, she somewhat regretted summoning this servant.
The problem was not 'his' willingness to do whatever she asked, but the fact, he was too willing to do anything! ANYTHING! Sometimes too independent.
Solving issues she wanted to solve herself, or even come to her mind. Often causing a big mess with it.
It was annoying! Whatever she said, he did it! Calling her in 'names'! Using annoying titles! She was on the point where she rather swallowed her sword than being near this creature!
"No, go back, do the inventory." she waved the creature away, offering an annoyed, scowling expression — even refusing to look at her 'brother.'
"Finished!"
"Cleaning?"
"Done!"
"Did you take out the dog today?"
"Did a few hours ago!"
"Checking any invaders around?"
"Done!" the man/teen/creature answered with a big grin, offering all his honesty to the master.
"Then what is this?" she pointed at Azazel — like he would be some unwanted trash — in return, the man smiled and waved to the young man leisurely.
"Hello, Rorschach…"
"Oho!~ Welcome Lord Azazel! How are you today?" chirped the servant, happily, just like he welcomed a friend, and the man smiled back.
"Ah! Manage, was better…"
"Anything you wish? Cake? Tea?"
"A cake please…"
The girl can only sigh, slumping on the counter depressed, grabbing her head. "Where did it go wrong?" meanwhile, the servant served the guest.
"Bon appetite!"
"Thank you!" and with great enthusiasm, the man started to fork the cake.
"Agh! Just go and check around the area once more! Make sure no one is eavesdropping on us! We are speaking about business stuff…" she mumbled, pointing towards the door, and the servant nodded.
"As you wish, my lady!~" he sang, another annoying trait to add the ever-growing list.
"Hmm, you have a good servant!"
"Swallow before you speak…"
"Sworrry!~ But it is delicious!~" she can only sulk miserably, as Azazel's perception was just too good for his own good.
The man literally sang these two sentences, with a full mouth to add on that. Indeed, the man right away recognized the source of her annoyance and used it with its fullest potential against her.
"By the way, it will be two billion yen..." the man still gnawed on a mouthful, smiling uncaring. "...per bite..."
"Pfft!" spitting out the cake, he pushed it away with disgust. "The Hell! You are the worst! And you are surprised why no one is coming here..."
"So… once again? Why should I go in that academy stuff? Huh?" she changed the topic in an instant, glancing at the man bored.
"Well…" the fallen smiled sly. "I can separate more funds to hasten the search after that rogue group… you want to speak with them too, no? Questioning them why they summoned you?~ Hmm?"
The man once more played with his brow, looking quite sultry and playful.
