*Warning: Female Barbatos/(Name) in a suit

- Cafeteria -

The demoness was back in her original form after a long day of staying in her male form, surprising the ghosts and the Princess, who adored her male form. She just smiled at them...

     "Seems like I disappointed all of you," she chuckled from their faces filled with misery. "I don't have a soul either way. I've already tried to say it a lot of times, but you kept interrupting me," she sighed.

     Ace huffed, "Even (Name)-senpai is tired of your stupid tactics! Your Princess is wrong in the first place and forcing someone to marry her is ridiculous already! You just kept supporting her even though it was wrong!" He yelled. "He's right! You all are just watching her!" Luke supported.

The nanny and grandpa started crying, telling them what happened to the Princess back 500 years ago. Everything they do for her sake. "Ever since she was a child, she's kind-hearted and someone who always dreams for everyone's future. Everyone in our kingdom is hoping for her to be the New Queen," is what they said. Not until everything vanished after they were ambushed by the foreign country—losing everything in one night...

She still kept smiling after all those tragedies she experienced that day, not blaming anyone that no one saved her. She always assures them it's fine, but on the inside, she's not fine because of the dream she ever wanted to achieve—to find her Ideal Prince. As her servants, they must give hope to their beloved Princess...

     Yuu grumbled at their story, "Blah, blah, blah. There you all go again with the nonsensical story hiding under your sleeve... It doesn't make up for what you did today," he stated. Ace nodded and laughed, "Yuu is right! I don't care how tragic your backstory is because it won't cover what you did today and all the lives you've bothered!" He told the Princess.

     (Name) nodded, "Indeed, my juniors are right. To begin with, the Ideal Prince you've dreamt of isn't really in the first place," she told the bewildered Princess. The Princess looks offended by it, "From the very start, you forced every Ideal standard of your Prince on me. I don't believe that's my descriptive appearance," she added.

     "How dare you talk to the Princess—"

     "Princess, don't listen to her! We'll just force her to come back to her male form—"

     The demoness snapped her fingers and followed by burning ghosts who interrupted her, "I wasn't talking to you in the first place, keep quiet and let me speak some sense to her," she firmly stated. "Grandpa! Nanny!" The Princess ran to their aid.

     "SHE'S STUCK WITH HER SILLY, LITTLE FANTASY BECAUSE YOU KEPT PUSHING HER WITH FALSE HOPES!" Ace added, angry at them. "This isn't the first time I experienced giving someone this kind of scolding, but let me just give you a piece of mind. Let's say you feel sorry about what you did—it brought guilt to you, but treating your Princess like a child won't do any good! Spoiling her ain't do shit!"

Trey and Cater smiled nervously because they got called out, like the Heartslabyul incident that happened before. The demoness told them that choosing your Prince doesn't need a look requirement since it's just a bonus and what's important is how they'll treat you if you're already married...

     "You still don't understand, huh?!" Ace looks pissed, while the demoness and Yuu sipped their tea watching Ace put all of his anger on the Princess. "YOU'RE MISSING THE POINT HERE! You gotta drop those Ideal Prince standards... THE PERFECT PARTNER ISN'T ALL ABOUT LOOKS, IT'S ALSO A BASIS OF SOMEONE THAT'LL STICK WITH YOU FROM SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH!" He yelled.

     Luke took a cookie, "Well, he's angry..." He murmured. "You need someone who'll stay with you even in the tough times! That's the person you need! Man, I'm feeling embarrassed because of you guys... Imagine not teaching your Princess basic knowledge for 500 years?! You didn't do anything, right? You guys are so useless even though you're beside her," Ace finished, panting because of the yelling.

Not until the other participants entered the room to check up on Ace and the other first years. (Name) immediately placed her hand on the ground, creating a black circle while the others tried to help the frozen students. The others thank Riddle and Rook for saving them, while Ace is busy insulting Deuce and Trey...

     She crossed her arms, "I would gladly ask for all of you to admit defeat and give back our privileges as the occupants of this school," she told them. "It would also prevent you to have your princess be responsible for deaths within this campus. However, considering I'm a demon, it still counts as one," she told them.

     "I wouldn't mind marrying you... I still love you, (Name)!" Eliza exclaimed, desperate for the demoness's touch. (Name) only flicked her hand to deflect the ghost's touch, "Even though I'm still your Ideal Prince—well, Princess—I still couldn't forgive you after forcing me into a marriage," Barbatos told her.

     "Look, I'm not trying to be evil... I just want to—"

     Chubby went in front of the Princess, "Don't listen to her, Your Highness. You've done nothing wrong," he assured. The demoness's face turned into a sour one, disappointed, "I see that you haven't learned your lesson. You still won't force your eyes open about everything your doing is wrong, isn't that right?" She stated.

     "I don't care if it's wrong... As long as it makes Her Highness happy, then I'll gladly take the whole world with me to achieve her happiness!" Chubby said and the demoness immediately jumped out of the way of his hand. "That's my duty... My wish for the Princess!"

     "HE LOOKS SCARY!" Luke sobbed, hugging the demoness. "NAH, HE'S GETTING BIGGER AND BIGGER!" Grim panicked.

     "He's using the anger he built up for 500 years! It's getting dangerous here!" Riddle yelled, protecting the other students. Rook squinted his eyes, "I can sense his magic getting stronger and probably the most powerful among the ghosts we've encountered! Everyone get behind us!"

     Vil rolled his eyes, "Didn't you know we can't move?" Rook gasped and looked at his dorm leader, "Very well. In the first years, push the glorified logs to the other side of the cafeteria! It's too dangerous here!" He ordered.

Leona and Sebek looked offended as they were pushed by the first years, while the seniors tried their best to nullify the ghost's advances toward them. (Name) just watched from the sidelines, too tired to say the least...

     "I WILL PROTECT THE PRINCESS UNTIL THE DAY I VANISHED!"

     "Aren't you gonna help them?" Luke asked, pushing Cater's body beside her. She stared at her child, "I'm too tired, my dear. Let me take a rest and I'll help them."

     "Ow!" Ace winced in pain since he was thrown by the ghost.

(Name) sighed from how persistent the ghost is, worrying about his manifesting anger that strengthens him. Placing her right foot on the floor, a red circle appeared on the ground and she started to cast a spell that can remove the manifesting anger on him. Her hand stretched in front of her as she started to cast the spell...

Hear me, pits of hell...

Forgive me for I have troubled you once more, but I command you once again to remove the anger of the ghost in front of me...

You shall heed my command no matter if you forbid it or not...

Her spell immediately went to the growing Chubby, attacking him. A loud explosion followed and cafeteria tables shattered from the spell she made—making everyone cover their eyes. Covering her tea, the smoke started to surround the room and everyone coughed from it...
