You sit at lunch as Clara takes a nap on your lap when you told Azz your shocking news.

"My beloved, are you sure of improving your rank?"

"Yes. I made a promise and I'm honored to keep it and make it true." You said thinking of Ameri presence
"It's the only way, I could redeem myself and start a new. I wanna climb from Alef(1) to Bet(2). I was wondering, is there any way to do that?" You said with pride, petting Clara's head while she sleeps, he abruptly stood up, you looking at Azz who cries joyful tears like a proud parent.

"Azz? What's wrong?"

'All this time, I thought my beloved is not interested in rising her rank, but I knew each day seemed to be chipping away at her and how could it not. She conquers incredible feats: she summoned a demon as her familiar, she tamed the Guardian of Cutthroat Valley her pet and grew a beautiful tree to match her as well her strength and abilities are surreal she puts the rest of us to shame that doesn't mean they should put her at the lowest rank, Alef(1).'

"When you receive Alef, believe me, beloved sweetheart, I was infuriated and confused as well. I was becoming numb from all our degenerate classmates who lack ambition but moving up in the ranks as a demon's pure pride let's get you to the top. Now it's time to prepare!" Azz shouted and clasp your hands together
"I guess." You said
"Prepare for what?" Clara woke up from her pleasant nap
"What else! For my beloved sweetheart to soar to the highest rank of Yodh and reign over all of Babylus!" Azz announced for everyone to hear, you gasp and Clara smiled, giggling in excitement.

"The honor student gonna climb the ranks"

"That's insane!"

"That's crazy ambitious!"

"Another legend about to be born!"

"I have no doubt (Y/n) could do it," Eiko spoke softly idolizing you with sparkles in her eyes

You trudge to Azz, "It's fine. I just wanna move to Bet. Okay?" You said
"If you think-" Azz started then caught himself
'Wait. This must be another one of my sweetheart tests, she said she has no interest in becoming Yodh. But that's a lie she wants me to think of that so I can help climb the ranks alongside her, so we could both rule over, become Demon King, and get married. Her ambition plan to climb the ranks is too much for my feeble mind to comprehend.'

"Forgive me for my presumptuous. You are far more superior than me." Azz kneeled down
"I'm finding that hard to believe and Azz, I just don't like to stand out!" You shouted

Azz turned his attention to the whole cafeteria.
"Now, Milady (Y/n) is prepared to boost to the respectable rank of Bet. Make way!" Azz declared openly, you were trembling

"Just a Bet?"

"That doesn't seem that ambitious."

"Who cares! This will be awesome!"

"Oh no. What should I do? If (Y/n) become a Bet, we won't have the same status anymore." Eiko whined
"You could raise your rank to Eiko," Gaako mumbled chewing on a drumstick

"Now let us go." Azz holds out his hand for you to take it.
"Sure," You said about to take his hand when the vendor waves his bamboo stick with an energetic Clara.
"Take her." He spoke darkly

"Yeah, take me away! Do it, do it!" Clara rocks back and forth, you dragged troublesome Clara.

Azz guide you down to the open mountain depth, an unknown gym below the misfit class.
"I never know we had a gym below the class."
"Whoa! It's huge, Connor, Murf you have tons of space to play!" Clara said as she performs her infamous barrel roll down
"But they're not doing the running." You giggled
"She vexes me so." Azz mumbled
