Rhys's POV

I was grinding on one of Shu's books on the shelf. It's very kind of her to let me borrow one of her books instead of being stingy.

Her books was mostly very ancient or nowhere to be found. By my prediction , she must have got them at the sparring sessions back at the Coliseum. They're her prizes , prized possessions.

"Rhys?," I turned and found Noi who's standing by the door frame ,"Have you seen Shu when the sun rise?" "Unfortunately I have not met her. Don't you have sparring lessons with her?" "I mean- I got there but she's nowhere to be found. She would usually be there like before us."

That's....suspicious....

"Did she went to another sparring competition at the Agrona Coliseum?" "She did mention that she won't be attending any unless the finals had came." Noi answered, which make me placed the book back on her table , stroking my chin , thinking all the possibilities.

"Okay seriously, Where Are You Freaking Leif!? I'm Going To Stab You!" Suddenly , Ava's voice echoed the house ad we quickly run out and found Ava who's hold back by Pierce. "What's the issue , Ava?" "Don't you know yet?" Asch asked while me and Noi just shrugged.

"Oh Now I Shall Let You Know That SOMEONE Had Gone Out A Date With My Sister!"

Leif's POV

I looked at Shu who has a hood covered her head and was dressed in her black tight shirt and pants with heels , admiring her gorgeousness.

"Leif? Are you alright?" "Y-Yeah definitely!" I said with a bit of stutter. "You seem to very familiar with this 'date' thing. Mind if you explain me once more?" "It's...basically hanging out with someone you like and possibly in other word....courting?"

Her face was flushed with pink as she quickly looked away from me. "S-So... you are possibly competing with Noi?" "Huh?" "I mean , there's a high probability that he likes me." She asked while grabbed me by the hand. I froze by her touch but soon sensed a sense from none other than Ava's.

'So they're with us....' I looked back at Shu who's urging for an answer.

"He likes you as a friend only. Possibly. He probably was still courting Ava since she's a powerful sorceress." She said a 'oh' as she continue walking down town without holding my hand.

'Was she disappointed cause Noi wasn't courting her?'

Noi's POV

"He likes you as a friend only. Possibly. He probably was still courting Ava since she's a powerful sorceress." Leif said to Shu , which had brought me up with rage.

How can he said such to Shu?! Myself who's trying to repair everything and he was bringing it downhill! And even Shu was....sad? Why was she sad?

"No hard feelings?" I looked at Pierce who's calming me down with his pats on my back. I shook my head as Ava ordered us to keep up since they walked away already.

"You are really curious huh?" Leif asked while Shu was admiring a red shining fruit. "I mean , I have never been outdoors due to my spirit features. As what Baron Hou said. This was first I would say , as Shu." She said while put back the fruit and looked at Leif.

"Then how did you got out and be Shatterer by the mean time?" "I ran out of the window. I mean , it's unlock , so why not." She shrugged as Leif leaned to her and patted her head under her hood.

Man , I felt like biting his hand now.

"Why was Leif courting that tantrum throwing lady? She was nothing but still a gypsy." "Oh your words were against Jing herself! Since Jing sings and dances!" Ava argued back , "T-That's different! Jing was much more different compared with her." Asch said while another argument was brought up.

By a second , a attracting melody was played which caught Shu attention as she ran towards the source. I turned , seeing that Asch was still having his tantrum throwing on Ava while Pierce and Rhys was just observing. I ignored the gang as I catch up to them.

Squeezing myself through a crowd of Daemos and soon found Shu who's dancing gracefully in the middle of the crowd. Her hood was flew off , revealing her Usagi features ears and demon horns.

She soon grabbed a young demon's hand as the two did a duet together. The kid was first frightened, then enjoyable. A smile was soon upon her face. She soon pulled more Daemos to join her gang as they danced along with the beat.

The crowd quickly clapped their hands as Shu danced alongside strangers that she never met. Her hair was dancing with the breeze and her eyes was reflected with joyous emotions.

By a quick second , I was accidentally pushed into the crowd and before I fall onto the ground , I felt myself pulled up from the ground. I looked at the person and found it's none other but Shu herself. "How does it felt like to be the centre?" She questioned with a face of rage but quickly pulled me into a dance.

"Come on , let the beat go , Noi!" She exclaimed while spun into my arms. I was quickly involved into the dance as I twirled her around and even held her by the waist and lifted her up in mid air. She chuckled and her face had a clear red tint.

As the melody ended , I held her by waist and her hand as she placed her hand on my chest. Her hot breath was blew to my face and we quickly parted away as we remembered a existence of a huge crowd.

Shu's POV

"Man.... You got the skills , Noi." I said playfully while smacked him by the chest. "It's nothing...." He uttered while scratching his neck.

Wait.... What was this weird feeling back again.....

Why do I feel like I danced with him before? But this was first I ever held his hand and danced in front of a crowd..... Was the other Shu inside me?..... Am I actually her?....

"What are you doing here?" I turned and found Leif who's asking Noi with violence. The crowd quickly ran away , preventing any accidents. "Leif! Stop it!" I said while held Leif by the wrist , making him have a short eye contact.

He quickly turned back to deal with Noi , "This was suppose to be my date! And you and the others just followed us and ruined everything!" "No...," Noi uttered while raised his leg and kicked him by the stomach , making him back off ,"You ruined everything. I was trying to change everything that I missed with Shu and repaired our relationship and you came in , ruining my plan!"

Repair the relationship with Shu?
What does he mean by that?
Did Shu does something bad? Making Noi regret?

"We talk this out with violence, you know?" "I would be delight to join you." Noi said with his face darkened.

"Now let's talk." Leif uttered while started his attack.
