Not Even MC Would Save You

8

You don't know how but you're inside Emecy's room right now. Yep that's right Emecy's room in the House of Lamentation. Why were you here you wonder? Well let's just say there were a few people (Emecy and Beel) who refused to just let you go home before at least patching you up.

You already tried telling them to just leave you in the infirmary or something but Emecy told you they wanted to pay you back for saving them. Beel also insisted since he already promised you (no he didn't?) to eat the cheeseburgers he got together.

Despite you being the one who's more injured you're now tending to Emecy's sprained wrist after they slipped and fell when trying to leave. Somehow there was an ignored wet floor sign just left there near the exit of the student council room. Why was such a thing there you don't even know.

Anyway you remembered that Mammon was the one who treated the MC’s injury in the canon but right now the Avatar of Greed was leaning against a wall while he watches you and Emecy. Beel was at least helping with your injuries that you couldn't reach by yourself.

“And there you go. You should be alright now”

You lightly patted their bandaged wrist before trying to stand up from the bed but unfortunately a pair of hands quickly stopped you.

“I'm not done yet.. you still have some near your waist”

“I can do that-”

“It's on your back too”

You didn't want to argue more knowing Beel can be stubborn when he wants too. Emecy was also looking at your wrists that had dark bruises due to Leviathan's grip being strong. They looked guilty for what happened to you even though it was definitely your fault for stepping in where you shouldn't.

“Don't look like that. I'll be fine in a few days. You on the other hand would've died. You're just a human who just got here- one without magic even. You can't exactly protect yourself just yet”

Emecy's head lowered even more as they heard what you said. You really didn't want to be mean to them but you have to make sure you're only a passing NPC to them with generic lines to say so they wouldn't get attached to you.

Beel was finally satisfied with his work tending to your wounds and pulled your shirt back down. He frowned at their current state before noting down to repay you for what his brother did (even if it's not his responsibility to do so). You got up and took your outer uniform that was draped over a chair and began walking out.

“Where are you going?”

You turned your head to see the pleading eyes of three people. Okay you really hadn't expected Mammon to also look like he didn't want you to leave but maybe that's just you who always see him as like some kind of puppy- I mean it's pretty easy to please him as a surprise guest when he's satisfied with just headpats.

“Um.. my dorm? It's a bit late and I don't want to miss curfew-”

“Think ya missed that quite a while ago”

You checked the time and- what the heck it wasn't that late just a few minutes ago! Wait, was it even just a few minutes? How long exactly have you been here? Okay that doesn't matter- what matters right now is where the hell were you going to sleep tonight because you're definitely not going to be let into the dorm by now.

Why can't you just reason with the supervisor? Absolutely not. You've already heard some of your other roommates who were late to enter and they were left out all night. If they tried to bargain or reason with the supervisor they apparently went missing the next day. Like they would literally disappear and all their stuff is gone. Like one day you would just see an unoccupied room where it used to have your next door neighbor or something. It's creepy! You don't want to end up missing!
