Working at Babyls has always been calm for you. Your first order of business was to organize everything. By sectioning books by their categories; the likeness of eating the reader and to how important it is to the current curriculum of the students. Afterall, in the Netherworld, chaos is everything so the placements of books are never truly considered.

The first week of arranging books has always been difficult, but seeing the books in their respective places (in your eyes) always made it worth the work.

It took you two weeks to fix the disastrous arrangement of the books in the library. The Library Batra were also willing to help, excited by the fact that the school finally had a Librarian.

The library is a quiet place, despite being in a world where Demons lived. Even now, you found it odd that there were demons who wanted to pursue a scholarly reputation. All that concentration and patience, just to achieve a paper for an ambition? Most Demons don't understand such actions.

But, it's a good thing you aren't like most demons, right?

Your day at Babyls is calm and quiet as it always had been. Though, quiet and calmness doesn't necessarily mean boring for you. It meant that many didn't know that your ears were open. These past two weeks, you've heard many things from the student body.

"I still can't get over about those new devi-dols that was at Kuromu's concert!"

"Same, I wonder when they'll debut."

"Did you hear about what happened to President Azazel?"

"The poor President."

"Someone challenged the President!"

"With that attitude? President isn't gonna win."

You didn't bother involving yourself in the situation, afterall, you weren't a teacher.

"Books-sensei!" During a quiet day of reading books in the Library, the student you first encountered on your first day barged in on your day. "Books-sensei." Clara glomped your figure, happily giggling as she shoved a paper at your face.

"Hello, Clara-chan," You gently pried the demoness off of you, quickly fixing your glasses. You took the piece of paper from her, glancing at its content. "What's this, Clara-chan?"

"Iruma-kins told me to get teachers to sign this paper! So that we can play in that shiny room!" Clara explained. You saw her tail wagging as if a happy dog, to which you resulted in petting her head.

"Is that so? Okay, I'll happily sign this." You chuckled, looking for your pen. Once you find your pen, you write your signature on the paper and hand it off to Clara. "There you go, be careful with it, okay? And I told you that I'm not a Teacher."

"I will!" Clara saluted, rolling away. "Bye bye, Books-sensei!"

You smiled at the rolling figure, shaking your head as you returned your attention back to the book you were reading before Clara interrupted your day.

——&——

You weren't blind. You have glasses, afterall. Perhaps you forgot something, or maybe you didn't do anything at all. Because the demon that was standing before you was glaring harshly at you.
