Kalego x Iruma One Shots

His Possessiveness

Iruma's Point of View

Time sure flies like an arrow; in other words, two years have already passed since I started studying at Babyls. Within those two years, my friends and I have been caught up in one crazy adventure after another. Wherever we go, some trouble seems to find us, as if we were the magnified version of chaos.

I remember my first year distinctly-who could forget the entrance ceremony? I ended up reciting some ancient spell my grandfather gave me as a speech. Honesty I had no idea what I was saying, and before I knew it, the whole place descended into chaos. The whole school talked about it for weeks, and I gained the name of that kid who turned the ceremony upside down.

Then, of course, there was the flying race. Kalego-sensei had shoved me off the edge when he saw me just standing around, not knowing I didn't even have wings in the first place. I won't blame him for that. I ended up riding the Valley Guardian to the finish line, which wasn't exactly the plan but somehow worked.

There was also that one with the Sakura tree back during our first lesson with Suzy-sensei. I had just gotten the Ring of Gluttony, and when trying to make a simple flower, the ring managed to let loose some absurdly huge amount of mana. Stuff like this made our class infamous throughout school, even in the Netherworld. A lot of demons think we're trying to cause trouble, but honestly, it just seems to happen when we're around.
Not even these surprises, however, can compare to the biggest surprise of them all: Kalego-sensei pursued me.

At first, when he told me that, I never believed it. No one had informed me that they were in love with me before. I did not think much of it, but he was very serious, convincing me in a way I had never seen before. He promised to do everything to show he meant what he was telling me.

And he didn't break that promise. For months, he did all he could to prove his seriousness, and I gradually began to take in a new, indescribable feeling. I realized I too was falling in love with him, yet I was very scared.

It wasn't the fear of loving him but of what could happen when he found out what I am-a human-would he leave me behind, just like my parents did when they sold me to Grandpa Sully? It tormented me, gnawing at my confidence. While my friends did think something was bothering me, they nonetheless left me alone, knowing I would work things out on my own in due time.

One day after class, Balam-sensei asked me to go with him to his office. I agreed, wondering what he wanted to talk with me about. A few minutes passed; we only looked into each other's eyes, saying nothing. I could tell he wanted to ask something but seemed to hesitate.

Finally, he asked if something was wrong with me. I wanted to lie, avoid it at all costs, but I knew I couldn't-especially with his bloodline sensing when people lied. So I opened up and told him everything.

With every word I spoke, the weight began to shift from my shoulders. His eyes had clouded at the thought of my not telling him that Kalego-sensei was courting me, which only meant his friend was courting me. Still, I could fathom his concern; it wasn't only because a human was in play but because of how a human-demon relationship would work out, especially when Kalego did not know what I was.

Conversely, Balam-sensei comforted me, saying Kalego would never leave me, even if he knew what I was. He also told me to remember this conversation just in case things didn't go right.

Months passed, and I finally worked up the courage to confess to Kalego-sensei. Much to my surprise and relief, he accepted my confession, and we were able to be a couple.
But it didn't take very long before I knew being with Kalego-sensei also had its challenges. He became even more possessive. Demons in Babyls now kept their distance for fear of setting off a dark side in him. A few wanted to warn me about Kalego's behavior, but when Kalego found this out, he threatened them with dire consequences should they utter one more peep about his behavior.

And after what he did to those demons that tried, nobody dared touch him, let alone flirt with me, so the only ones who tried to tear us apart got dealt with in as quick a fashion, and the rest learned to keep their distance.
For a little while, things settled into a strange sort of normal. Kalego-sensei was possessive but allowed others near me if they asked permission first. Then a new substitute teacher was assigned to teach basic magic while Momonoki-sensei recovered from her evil phase.

At first, everything was fine. Soon enough, the substitute teacher started gazing at me in odd ways, oblivious to the fact that I shared any relationship with Kalego-sensei. The Misfit class picked up on it, and exchanging looks, we silently agreed not to warn him. Most of them wanted some drama after all.

They threatened one another after class to keep their mouths shut from Kalego-sensei and me, and in no time at all, that sub-teacher started hitting on me. I didn't even notice it at first, but the Misfits enjoyed the show. The other teachers were keeping Kalego-sensei busy since they knew better.

Kalego's Point of View

The audacity of that noob flirting with Iruma:

does he not know that Iruma belongs to me and only me?

I don't share what's mine.

And if that bastard crosses my path again, I'll shred the pieces into bits and then bury what's left where no one can find them.

But I have to be cautious. I won't let anyone disappear all of a sudden and make Iruma sad. I'll protect Iruma somehow, no matter what. Only I can protect him against anything with his fragile human body.

I knew he was human from that first-year summoning of familiars, but I had to wait. If I were to get him sooner, suspicion would arise. Now, I only need to think about an appropriate punishment for that idiot substitute teacher.

Maybe a year's worth of paperwork is due the next day?

As the next day passed by, the punishment that I'd prepared was given to him without a word of explanation. His face was priceless. I wish I had a camera to capture that moment but at least I have given him the punishment.

Someone's Point of View

A few days later, Momonoki-sensei returned to school, none the wiser to the chaos she had left behind. She began to hear whispers of the substitute teacher's punishment and tried to uncover what had occurred.

She cornered him in the teacher's lounge, and he explained in a bewildered and frustrated manner about the amount of paperwork he'd been assigned.

Then it clicked: she asked if the substitute had flirted with a student in the Misfit class; his face went pale. "Iruma?" he stammered, confirming her suspicion. Momonoki couldn't help but laugh hard.

The substitute, baffled, asked what was so funny. Still wiping tears away, she said, "Iruma and Kalego are... involved. And Kalego? He's possessive, very possessive."

Blood drained from the substitute teacher's face as he realized, with growing horror, just how badly he had messed up. Lucky for him, he got off with just paperwork. He wasn't so lucky the second time.
