The next morning, the first two hours flew by. During the break, Yuuso stopped Yuki and Hiko before they could leave the classroom. "Hey, you two! Excuse me, where exactly have you been running to lately in the breaks? You're not with us anymore!", "Oh." Yuki laughed. "Yes, that's because two of our acquaintances are exchange students at this school! As long as they're here, we want to hang out with them in the breaks. I hope you understand that.", "Ah, I get it. Are they your age?", "Nah, they're in the thirteenth.", "Oh. Are those the guys you mentioned? What were their names again?", "Kaito and Raiden." Hiko helped him out. "Exactly." He nodded. "Is that them?", "Yepp." Yuki nodded. "Ah. . . nice. Are they cool guys?", "You bet! Do you want to meet them?", Yuki asked. Hiko gave her a glimpse that was probably originally meant to dampen her enthusiasm, but somehow, Yuki didn't even notice that she was looking in her direction. "Uh. . . I don't see why not." Yuuso shrugged his shoulders and looked around to Arubaro. "Hey, dwarf! I'll come over later, but I'll do something else first!", "Dwarf? Fuck you, Yuuso!!!" Yuuso just grinned. "I didn't mean that.", "You did!", "I didn't!", "You did! You're so mean!", "But. . . . I gave you some of my biscuits this morning", "But only because I begged you for five minutes!", "I just couldn't hear your whining anymore.", "See? You're an ass!", "This is hurting me. . .", "Guys. . .", Hiko sighed. "Can you maybe stop yelling your way across the classroom? We're not deaf and we're nice to each other.", "Preach that Yuuso sometime!", Aru grumbled. Hiko looked at Yuuso with an annoyed face. She didn't even have to open her mouth to say what she thought. "Why are you looking at me like that?" Yuuso asked innocently. Hiko rolled her eyes and kicked his shin. "Ouch!! Hey, what was that for?", "You're acting like a three-year-old kid," the blonde-haired girl commented almost emotionless before she left the classroom. Yuuso grumbled something to himself that Yuki didn't understand. "You know her. . ." she said, embarrassed. Yuuso nodded. "Yes, I know her. But please, tell her that she's not my mother next time.", "You better tell her yourself", "Then, she will kick me again! My poor shin has done nothing wrong!", "Well, Yuuso. . . I'm sorry to say that, but. . . Tough cookies." She smiled just as innocently as he did before. "Are you lame asses still coming some day?" Hiko asked from the hallways. "Yeah, chill!" Yuki ran to her and Yuuso followed them, although he already internally regretted it. 

Satan was the only one who looked up when Yuki and Hiko arrived with Yuuso at their regular place. Lucy seemed to be annoyed in some sort of way, maybe because of these the brain-amputated seventh graders two hundred meters further on who let their rap music sound loudly over the whole schoolyard with the help of a Bluetooth box. Satan didn't seem to mind. "Oh, who did you bring along?" he asked. "This is Yuuso, a classmate of ours. He was curious." Satan looked at the boy. "Ah, I see. I am Murakami Raiden, and this...", he pointed at Lucifer, "...is my beloved brother, Murakami Kaito.", "Crawler", Hiko commented. Satan looked at her without understanding. "Why crawler? I'm serious.", "Whatever. .." Yuuso scratched the back of his head. "I'm Yuuso Amano", "Nice to meet you, Amano-kun!" Satan grinned friendly at him. "Every friend of Yuyu is a friend of mine.", "YUYU?! SINCE WHEN DO YOU CALL ME THAT?" Before Satan could answer the slightly acidified Yuki, Lucifer interrupted him. "Please. . . stop yelling like that. . . My poor eardrums are already raped by this cruel rap music. . ." Yuki remembered that demons always heard everything at least twice as loud, so she could understand why Lucifer seemed pretty bad-tempered. But at least, she was right about her assumption. Yuuso scrutinized the brothers thoughtfully. "Please, don't beat me if I confuse your names, I'm bad at this.", "We're used to this from Aoi-Sensei, so it's not so bad." Satan said and waved off. "Anyway, the best thing to do is ignore Kaito when he's in a bad mood. It reduces your chances of getting killed." Satan said as if it was absolutely normal. Yuuso looked at him disparagingly. "Is he aggressive?", "Passive-aggressive, I'd say", he said laughing. Lucifer gave him a look. "Shut up",  "Never~", Satan grinned brightly. Lucifer sighed and rolled his eyes. Yuuso leaned to Yuki. ". . . he seems to me like Hiko in male version." Yuki had to giggle."A little, yeah." Hiko kicked him a little harder this time. Yuuso suppressed a silent growl. "Man, don't do that!", "I heard that." she said coldly. Yuuso rubbed his shinbone. "You're cruel!"

Satan and Yuuso got along quite well, but he didn't really seem to dare talking to Lucifer. Which was understandable, because an annoyed Lucifer was like a ticking time bomb. After a while, Yuuso retreated to join the others. ". . . Well, I think he might be quite distraught now", Yuki said. "If he wasn't up to now, he definitely is now." Satan shrugged his shoulders and Yuki laughed. ";Poor boy..." Someone came their way and Satan recognized Kenji. "Oh, hey, Ken! What the hell are you doing here? I thought you were stuck behind the PC during the break", "I'm not stuck behind the PC", Kenji replied laughing. "I've got some free time too, you know.", "How did you find us?" Satan asked. Kenji crossed his arms. "I asked Kagami. She always knows best where Kaito is." He winked at Lucy. Lucifer looked at him. "Very funny, Kenji.", "This wasn't supposed to be a joke. It's just the way it is." Satan laughed. "I can imagine! I wouldn't be surprised if Kagami stalks you all the time, bro!" Lucy looked around. "Please, don't make me paranoid, Raiden.", "I'd rather worry about Marina." Yuki whispered. "She's more of a stalker type." Lucifer looked at her reproachfully. "Please stop it, I'm almost escalating right now.", "Oh dear..."
