Here I am, back to the academy again. Not the pce I would like myself to be in but I have to.

  Because today is concert day, and I just so happen to meet my stalker. And now, we are sitting on a bench just outside of the main building.

  "Here...", she said shyly, giving me a can of soda.

  I took it, "So... what's your deal?"

  Clementine Valentino, the girl who proposed to me on the first day. Now that I think about it, the proposal was the most normal thing that day.

  "I... just found you amazing.", she twirls her blonde hair, smiling as she stares at me with her deep blue eyes.

  There is a darkness behind those eyes... a hunger perhaps.

  "In my entire life, I have heard of many amazing people, changing the course of history... some are still living right now!", she looks down at her soda can, spinning it with her palms, "I love those people and their stories... I see them in you, my Princess."

  "So that makes you propose to me?"

  "Y-Yes...", she giggles, "I wasn't in the right mindset, I was so... excited seeing you. I want to be a part of your story..."

  Idolizing is fine with me. I just don't like the emotions of others, they cover up my own feelings. I want to stay true to myself and be myself only... being in a retionship would only cloud myself.

  "Just don't confess to me all of a sudden, we can start by knowing each other.", I took a sip from my soda, hmm... too sweet for my liking, "Let us start at the beginning, who are you?"

  She smirked and stood up, crossing her arms in front of me, "I am Clementine Valentino, daughter of Quinten Valentino. è un onore conoscerti, mia principessa (It is an honor to meet you, my Princess)."

  Quinten Valentino... the Italian mob boss? Ehh, not that impressive.

  "My name is Charlotte Silvi.", I simply stated.

  Her smile strained, "T-That's a bit simple, isn't it? Let's try something... longer! What is your hobbies?"

  Shooting people, "Games."

  Her eyes stare at me with suspicion, "Goddamn, you are good at ending a conversation."

  "I take that as a compliment.", I smile.

  "You don't really have etiquettes, do you?", she frowned.

  "When you live in the most unstable city, you don't need that kind of thing.", I shrugged.

  Hm? Oh, she's here.

  Getting up from the bench, I handed her back the soda can, "Well, I have to get ready for the talent show. It's unfortunate that I cannot stay here with you for long."

  "Can't I come with you?", she asked with a hopeful tone.

  "I had a heater already—"

  —I dodged to the side, avoiding a hand grabbing me.

  "How dare you call me a heater!", it was Hoa who tried to grab me, "Also, how the fuck did you notice me?"

  True, I didn't notice her heat signature. But she didn't account for her movement.

  "Will of Survival gives me the ability to calcute the world. I can 'feel' everything around me, and I can respond accordingly."

  "So Ultra Instinct.", Clementine joined our conversation.

  "Yes, whatever that means.", I rolled my eyes.

  "Then what about your... blue mist thingy?", Hoa continues to ask.

  Now... how should I expin Justice? I couldn't say it's the manifestation of human righteousness... oh, I know. Heha~

  "You know my ability to harness everything I touch, right?", I smile, letting Justice Mist seeps out of my body, forming a knife, "This is my blood, I can harness my blood and control them however I like."

  "Can I... lick it?"

  We both stare at Clementine. What. The. Fuck. Did. She. Just. Said?

  Clementine chuckled, blushing in embarrassment, she quickly turned away with her hands covering her face, "NOOOO!! I said something weird again!! Forget it, forget it!"

  And then she ran away... dropping the two soda cans...

  "So... who was that?", Hoa looked at me.

  "Daughter of an Italian mob boss.", I stated.

  "Her English is pretty good.", she commented.

  I don't feel the difference due to my auto-transtor. I'll have to trust her on that.

  "Oh, by the way, how do you learn nguages?" I picked up the fallen cans, throwing them into the trash bin with perfect accuracy.

  "Well, I suck the memories out of my meals. I learn nguage that way. No Eldritch Magic... just sucking the life force out of some random dude...", she looks into the sky, reminiscing about something.

  "Well, I'm going to buy some food. Where is Mitsuki's stand?", I went ahead by myself.

  Hoa walked with me, "Near the arena, she set up a sushi stand there."

  I nodded, "Then we are heading there."

  We continued our walk, which somehow turned into a running contest between me and Hoa.

  "Try to catch up.", she smugged while partially in her fire form.

  "Hysteria."

  Time slowed down for me, but even then, Hoa is still faster than me. I don't like losing, not to some extraterrestrial living fire.

  I feel my muscles straining, my bones creaking to almost breaking point. The warnings are going off in my head!

  But this is too much fun!!

  Hehahaha!!!

  "This is FUN!!"

  Slowly but surely, I got ahead of Hoa. She wasn't going to give me the lead, so she turned more of herself into hot air—

  I ducked and weaved through the students, combining the already slowed down time and my reaction time... everything is too easy!

  I saw a hulking man, walking in front— he looked kinda young for someone over three meters tall!

  I stomped the ground, and I jumped— back flipping over the man in a show of dexterity and strength. He tried to grab me, aiming for my neck.

  But did he know I can move in midair?

  Calling Justice, I formed a single wing with feathers made of swords and gun barrels. I fpped my wing, moving out of the way.

  I nded with a smile, Hoa also stopped to stay beside me. We both look at the talk muscur man... he's shirtless, just... really tanned. And he's kinda handsome too, especially with that blond wavy hair.

  But not my type... I like people I can bully and mess with.

  "You kids don't respect their elders, huh.", he raised his voice, cracking his knuckles.

  "Respect is earned, not given.", I spoke up, crossing my arms, "Who are you, anyway?"

  He gave us an intense stare, his eyes turning red, "I am Setana Uvrid, the Warrior of Light! You will not disrespect me!!"

  We both widen our eyes with wildly different expressions. Hoa took a step back, not wanting to get roped into this situation. And me, whose smile got even wider.

  "FIGHT ME!!", I held my hand up, "Enna, Quirinus!!"

  And from the sky, the bck briefcase fell down— I grabbed the handle, and spun around while opening it up. I took the nce out, pointing it at Uvrid.

  "You're a feisty one, aren't 'cha?", he smirked, cracking his knuckles, "Introduce yourself, brat."

  "Don't call me a brat, you fucker.", I retorted, throwing the briefcase to Hoa, "I am Charlotte Silvi, the Silver Princess of Humanity."

  "I'll have fun beating that personality out of you—"

  He dodged my forward thrust by a centimeter. Using the momentum I charged all the way.

  Winding up my left fist— I punched him in the stomach!!

  Setana was sent back a couple of steps, making me frown as I didn't get him as far as I wanted. But I continue to use my advantage, holding onto my nce with two hands.

  I swung it at him like I would with a sword! Making him put his guard up, and the tip of my nce scrape by him—

  Huh?

  He suddenly threw a punch straight at my nce, throwing it to the side! Hehahaha!!!

  He went for another punch, this time aimed at my head. Using my nce - stabbed in the ground - as an anchor point, I jumped to the side in a circur motion, while ducking down for...

  "Anthem of Gunpowder.", my wing twists around, pointing the barrels of Justice at Setana.

  Then a hailstorm of bullets flew at him, making him abandon his pursuit and dodged out of the way.

  "I didn't lie about my title being the Silver Princess of Humanity. As long as you are human, you can never defeat me."

  "So...", he said as he kept his arms up, tanking the hail of bullets, "How about a monster?"

  An intense air of heat suddenly engulfs his body. The blood he was bleeding out... evaporated. No, his entire body is steaming out blood, creating a red aura...

  He grew rger, several times in fact, his arms bulged out— sealing the wounds. His mouth opened agape, showing his internal organs on full dispy...

  Cú Chuinn, the Child of Light... who alone fought against an army for three days straight. Who defeated dozens of famed warriors, reducing their name to nothing more than his victims. A hero whose strength could only be rivaled by Heracles. A warrior who none can match in the battlefield... then there is me.

  I covered my mouth, I didn't want to show my full-on sadistic grin... just yet.

  He let out a deafening roar, blowing everything back with his cry alone!! Hehahahahahaha!!! This!! This is what I expected of a Hero of Legend!! Not someone who can only do good!! Fwed humans who achieved great things!!!

  "I am Charlotte Silvi! Ruler of the World!!"

  I feel my gem ache, flooding out Reverie sludge... and my wing drooped onto the ground, becoming a part of the mass...

  "Devils of the Void! They who embodied Infinity!!", my eyes dited, turning as bck as the abyss.

  He lunged at me as I was still chanting, but the Reverie on the ground made him stop, feeling how dangerous it was!

  "You who gave humanity a Spark! a Light in their Clouded Mind!!", the tendrils bcker than a starless night covered my arms.

  Ah~ I can feel my emotions getting dulled... but that is fine...

  My climax never ends anyway.

  "Imagination to Create all~!", parts of my hair dyed bck, full of Reverie...

  "The Dream to Rule Everything...", then more Reverie came, wrapping around my neck... and turning into a scarf.

  "Anima Pactum...", my voice practically became a whisper in the wind, "Akashic... Reverie."

  All the Reverie on the ground gathered under my feet... yes... I can feel my body being eaten...

  I step forward to confront the mad beast. Staring at his bulging red eyes. Heha~ you look really ugly.

  "GRRROOORRRRRR!!!!", he roared, throwing a punch so hot it was practically on fire!

  I quickly held my nce in a guard position - one hand on the handle and the other on its body— I was pushed back by the sheer strength of the monster!

  It was relentless, throwing hundreds of punches in the span of mere seconds!! But I kept on blocking them, not letting go...

  "Open... Gate of Akasha. Weaved from the hearts of the greatest Demons of Hell, Garment made to destroy the Lesser! Ars Goetia!!"

  A bck portal opened behind me, dawning me the blue coat of destruction!

  With Reverie, I created a pair of white gloves— I granted them the power to fucker over gods!

  Letting go of Quirnus in the same motion as he draws his fists back. I kicked the nce towards him. And using it as a distraction, I ducked under— punching him in the kneecaps, dissolving the gloves in the process!

  "GRRRRAAAARRR!!!!!!!", he roared in pain and fell over!

  Apply True Spark to my shoes, I kicked him in the head! Sending him spinning on the ground with explosive force!!

  Hehahahaha!!! Not even emotion suppression can keep me down now!!

  With Reverie, I formed a new shoe for myself, applying the same force! I want to fight! I want to prove my dominance!!

  Even a hero with the power of a monster can't stop me, who can?!

  Even with his broken legs, he still ferociously crawled towards me. But I won't let him touch a single strand of my hair.

  With Reverie, I formed an iron spike, applying True Spark to it! And I pinned the Warrior of Light down!

  —That was what was supposed to happen, but he radiates even more heat!! Melting the iron spike when it came into contact with him. Damn! He even evaporated the liquid metal!!

  Hehahahaha!! But can he melt... this!!

  I extended the Reverie pool under my feet toward Quirinus— creating a stone pilr, and knocking it flying toward me.

  I grabbed it, letting Reverie flow between the crevis, moving backward so as to not let him touch me. I jumped up into the air— and thrust Quirinus down on top of him!

  Penetrating through the steam armor, penetrating through his skin, going through his internal organs— I got him firmly into the ground... knocking him out with a high dose of Rain, neutralizing his Devil~

  I can see he's knocked out and is returning to normal.

  Hehahahaha!!

  "I won~!", I raised my hands up with peace signs, smiling and jumping around to signify my victory!

  Ah— I am bleeding internally, coughing up blood.

  I ended my Anima Pactum, patting my chest as Hope flowed through my body.

  Oh, the Principal personally came!

  "Yo! How are you doing!", I waved at him.

  "What have you done, Miss Silvi.", he spoke calmly, but his eyes were ticking faster. Maybe to check something.

  "I and Hoa were—", I look around, but Hoa is nowhere to be seen. She ditched me!

  "Anyway, I was having fun when he butts in and demands I respect him. Of course, I challenged him to a fight to earn my respect.", I stated, crossing my arms.

  He closed his eyes, breathing a sigh, "I'll have you write a report ter... for now, you are off the hook."

  "Well then, goodbye~ I'll have to find my friends now.", I pulled my nce out of Setana.

  I went and picked up the briefcase, putting my nce back in. Now... I'll head to Mitsuki, I am bound to find Hoa there.

  =0=0=

  Seria opened her pocket watch, looking at the time. She shook her head from side to side, thinking of how to meet Charlotte.

  "I believe we are early."

  And behind her is a woman wearing a business suit, blinking and still sleepy. She brushed her purple and teal hair with her hand.

  "You know I am not a morning person, Abby...", she compined, her voice raspy, "I don't want to get involved with Setana or Titor today... maybe tomorrow."

  "C'mon now, Selen! We'll just be here for a few days~", Seria giggles, "You are Selen 'Champ' Champin!! The Dean of Libertas!! You can solo the two of them if they give you any trouble~!"

  She grabbed her hand, dragging her inside.

  "Let's mess things up!"
