THE ATMOSPHERE WAS GETTING more tense and most definitely awkward for you. Sure, you weren't exactly caring about your current situation, no. It was just that you didn't have the strength for any more problems occurring.

This should've just been an easy mission for you and Megumi to find the cursed object.

So why exactly were you here, in the principal's office being scolded like a Highschool student?

It was already after school time, meaning that all of the students were gone. Yet here you are, being treated like one.

"I don't exactly understand how I was harassing the students?" You rolled your eyes. "I was looking for something I lost here."

"And what exactly is that what you lost?" The principal cleared his throat. "Do you have any evidence?"

Feeling an irk mark appear on your temple, you shot up from your seat and slammed the desk with your hands. "Evidence? I Fucking lost my keys somewhere here! My brother told me that he accidentally took mine instead of his and lost them at this goddamn school! How could I have any evidence, if I fucking lost my evidence!"

A pretty good excuse. Well, for coming up with it within seconds. It was decent. Well, you were pretty good at hiding things anyway.

"I see." Standing up, the principal went to open a cabinet and took out a box. "I should be home already, so here. This is the lost-and-found box, look for your keys here. Maybe they are somewhere there."

Feeling your eye twitch, you exhaled slowly and pushed away all of the annoyance you currently were feeling and going through.

Picking out a random keychain, as obviously none of them were yours, you then put it into your pocket and left the room.

It felt like hours inside that office.

And looking out of the windows, you most definitely could confirm that you were inside that office and being interrogated quite an awful amount of time.

"Fuck him for wasting my time.." You grumbled under your breath. "And that bitch in the first place." Your mind wandered off to the teacher that had stopped you and pulled you to the principal's office.

The cursed energy was still lurking around, making you somewhat relieved that you hadn't lost your achievements up until now.

You were in no shape and state of mind to redo your search at another place.

But something was wrong. You felt it.

It all happened in a flash. All of the sudden the smallest bits of cursed energy you felt had doubled and then tripled in its amount. A hard pressure was what you felt instantly.

"What the fuck? I thought it was sealed?" You began walking towards the direction where most of the energy came from. It was the floor above you. "Who the fuck opened the seal?"

Clicking your tongue, you remained at your walking pace as it probably were some kids that had found the cursed object and removed the seal from it.

Why should you rush to help them?

It was them or a someone that removed the seal in the first place. They should learn from their mistakes.

"I fucking hate kids."

Walking up the stairs, you stopped midway as you heard loud clashes and the sound of glass being shattered.

Great, you now had to deal with much more than just retrieving some random special grade cursed object.

Cranky, you continued walking up the steps and came in sight with people running right past you. On a second look, you let out a whistle at the sight in front of you.

It was Megumi being smashed against the wall by a curse. That wasn't just it, no. The curse ran up to the raven-haired boy and destroyed the walls as he hit him through it.

"Now that's a few broken bones." You mumbled as you walked up to the hole in the wall. "Wait.. I can feel the cursed energy of.."

The moment you wanted to jump down onto the roof where Megumi was currently struggling against the curse, you felt a presence rush right next to you and jump down.

It was the pink-haired boy.

"Huh, wasn't that the guy I felt the energy coming from?" Now shrugging, you sat down onto the edge of the opened wall. You had the best view on what was currently going on. "Quite entertain— Wait.. isn't that the cursed object..?" You grimaced as you looked at the pink-haired boy swallowing the object you were searching for.

And for a moment everything went quiet.

It was only until you heard a loud laugh and a pressuring presence that you squinted your eyes at the high schoolers in front of you.

"That boy.." You widened your eyes.

You couldn't believe what you were currently seeing right in front of you just a few meters away.

"That boy has tattoos! At high school age!"

But just as they had appeared, the black markings all over the pink-haired boy's body had vanished.

Now, you couldn't understand anything.

What even was that cursed object?

And shouldn't that boy have died after swallowing something like that?

Questions after questions were starting to surface as each second passed. Well, you were quite confused that is true, however, you weren't this amused for a long, long time.

Everyday you had sat at home, doing some awful paperwork to earn just about such an amount of money so that you could pay your rent and some food.

It wasn't nearly enough for you, but you managed.

And now, that place you had worked day and night for, had been destroyed in about twenty minutes.

Being so immersed in your thoughts made you forget about something. The children's play in front of you. Well, you were so distracted with your wrath towards the raven-haired male and him destroying your place, that you didn't even notice a certain white-haired male appear.

The moment you saw him a disgusted grimace on your face formed. "Ugh, that clown again."

Jumping off the edge, you made your way towards Megumi and Satoru, who held the pink-haired boy in his arms. He was unconscious.

"Hmm, look who decided on showing up. Had fun watching?

Turning your attention towards the white-haired male with an emotionless gaze, you let out a groan. "Mhm, up until you showed up. Just then I started to get bored."

"You know, devil.. Instead of watching your company struggling and fighting with a curse, you could've helped."

"That wasn't my task. My task was to go look for the special grade cursed object and retrieve it. You yourself mentioned that it wasn't necessary to fight. Or that anything like this would happen."

Huffing, Satoru turned away from you and ushered Megumi to stand up.

"Let's go back, someone has to be executed!"
