"So, what will we be doing today?" Erissa asked.

The group was in Blythe and Guren's house this time.

Guren and Mimmy had planned the event, but the two looked at the group nervously.

"We cancelled today's event," Guren admitted.

"I-It was for an important reason though!~" Mimmy backed up.

"What is the reason exactly?" Ikari asked, not sure of what her master and Guren had planned.

"Well, its about you grimoires," Guren informed.

"Will we be explaining something?" Okui asked.

"I will be explaining things. After all, I've kept this a secret," Senbo spoke up.

"Oh! I know what you're talking about!~ Senbo-kun, this is a great time to explain~" Yokubo smiled.

Blythe looked at Senbo confusedly.

"Then, the spotlight is yours, Senbo," Hokori smiled.

Senbo nodded and faced the confused group.

"I haven't told you guys yet, but I only have nine days to live—"

"WHAT?" Chelsea and Blythe screamed in unison.

"W-wait, before you panic, please listen to Senbo," Guren sighed.

"Yes, please listen. Anyway, I will explain to you all why I only have nine days to live. According to grimoire rules, you can only become a grimoire if you wish to die because of a specific bad event. Grimoires are then reborn and become a magic book. They do not remember anything about their past life.

"Though, there is a way for the grimoire to find out about the human they used to be. They simply need to go to the leader of all grimoires and ask for the details. But, there is a price that the very grimoire has to pay. The grimoire has twelve days to live after hearing their past. The grimoire will eventually lose magic and turn into a normal, but dead human.

"Why I wanted to find out my past as a human, you ask? It was tiring not knowing how I became a grimoire. I found out I became a grimoire because of my desire to use magic as a non-magic user. I was also bullied for being the most noticeable person at the high school I went at.

"I was eventually tortured, abandoned by my parents, and starving. I had nothing yet, and I wanted to kill myself. The leader of the grimoires, Uranazuro, took me in and made me a grimoire. My real age isn't 18, but it is 25.
