Ashfall Estate…

Nezerath Ashfall strolled down the halls of his city mansion, a condescending smile on his face . He always wore it, especially while beating his servants . Even while walking, it showed as a reminder that anyone opposing someone as amazing as him was just asking to die . Or get sent to his room of No Return .

He couldn't wait to get Alice Hades, the bratty woman of the Hades family into that fun place . There were so many things he wanted to do her—each consisting of putting the b.i.t.c.h in her place . That mouthy spoiled brat would learn that it's either his way or pain . Well, pain anyway .

Maids bowed lowly as he pa.s.sed them, fear in their eyes . Oh, did he love that fear . Eyes dropping like flies to the crimson carpet .

Nezerath met the head maid in his private meeting room, no guards at the door . Only a fool would dare try something against him . He first ripped off the busty demoness's clothing then pinned her to the wall with a single choke . Nothing . Even when he entered her .

This just wasn't satisfying so he dropped the maid . With one flick of his wrist, her uniform lurched back onto her, underwear and all, fully repaired . He could've healed the bruise on the maid's neck . Pssh . Why would he do that? She knew the deal .

"Report, woman," he said as he walked over to a mirror . Golden hair, a handsome face, arrogant smile and green eyes stared back at him . A body that can attract any woman . The thought of Alice and her insulting ways made him punch the mirror . It burst and convulsed into dust .

"Sire," the emotionless head maid said . "You have a meeting on Sat.u.r.day with Demon lord Hades . It is to finalize the life mate ceremony . You've been approved . "

"That's not an approval," Nezerath said . "That's just a few members of her own household trying to push that burden onto me, while gaining the loyalty of my family . " He sighed . "What should I do to her first? Well, publicly f.u.c.k her of course . A little firsthand humiliation will teach humility . Then day after day, I'll l.u.s.t in the days of fun as she suffers like the worm she is in the room of No Return . And speaking of that room, get the clean-up crew on it now . Another pitiful disobedient trash sack has died . " He sneered . "There's nothing I hate more than disobedience, which is why I made you head, Yuki . " He s.n.a.t.c.hed the clipboard from her, pinning the woman to the wall again . No reaction . No emotion . No fear . "You used to beg for mercy, but now . You seem to have figured out how to live pain-free . " He released her . "Don't give away your secrets to the others . I love my fear-s.e.x . "

He picked up her clipboard and handed it to her . "I can release you from your service . Let you retire early in luxury . Who knows, maybe you'll regain your sense of self . All you have to do is find out why that Hades b.i.t.c.h is rarely at her father's estate now . No one can hide from me . Now get out of my site . " He backhanded Yuki hard enough to send her outside of his door . She calmly collected the clipboard, stood, and simply dusted herself off .

"My lord, there is one more thing I must report . "

"Go on," Nezerath said .

"My sources have notified me that your cousin has used the resp.a.w.n," Yuki said, voice still without emotion .

Nezerath shook his head .

"Fool probably got himself shot up, wasting such a valuable one-use ability . Not even I could find that stupid witch to give it to me . " He straightened . "It doesn't matter, I've heard the price she demands is too high . Send someone to fetch that idiot . If it isn't college girls he's going for, it's the middle and high school . Tried to encourage him to just use the maids and he refuses . Sloppy seconds my a.s.s . "

The maid bowed .

When she left, Nezerath cackled, imagining the day he'd have his hands around Alice's throat . Breaking that brat and claiming the loyalty of her family . The excitement almost urged him to go on a binge-fest on every maid in the estate, but he had work to do . Despite being the heir of the Ashfall throne, he was still in charge of mundane paperwork . Curse the humans who influenced demon culture . One day, he'd enslave them all .

Bus stop near Clyde's apartments… .

The two young men shook hands . Despite both dressing casually, Clyde couldn't help but notice how Toru was like the personification of money . He made a note to himself never to hang out with him unless he wanted to be taken as that slightly less attractive wingman that the girls never paid any attention to .

Clouds covered the sky in a way that made it difficult to tell if there would be rain . People around carried out their daily lives, scurrying to work or taking a kid to school .

"So what's this all about?" Clyde asked . The young began to pace before speaking . Somehow, he still made even that look dignifying .

"I've…been having these thoughts for a while," he said . "It's hard to explain, but I tried to ignore them . I mean how can a man possibly think this way . What would people think of me? Ultimately, I came to a conclusion . " He looked Clyde in the eyes . "You like who you like . Maybe even more than that . "

"I'm not liking where this is going," Clyde said . "Bro, I swear if you made me come all the way out here—" he paused when a slender young woman rose from the bench to join at his side . Her illusion of being a black-haired, dark-skinned woman s.h.i.+mmered away to reveal… . a slime girl .

She was dressed in a purple j.a.panese-style robe, a kimono, contrasting blue slime . Dark blue, perhaps indigo, colors made up the pattern of representing her hair . She gave a short bow, face friendly, purple eyes glistening .

"I'm Fumi," she said . "Nice to meet you . "

The smile was off-putting to the young man, but he remained composed .

f.u.c.k you, System, Clyde thought then pulled Toru off to the side .

"Toru, what the f.u.c.k?" he hissed . "Are you out of your G.o.dd.a.m.n mind? Do you know what they do to people? Have done? Scratch that, what the h.e.l.l man?"

"I can't help it," Toru said . "You love who you love . "

Clyde released a sigh .

"You know what, I'm not the judging type and I'm not about to start now . Team lead, not problem solver . "

"You're pretty much the problem solver," Toru said, giving Clyde one of his infamous blank stares . It always seemed to get the result Toru wanted, the frown on Clyde, signaling that it stung in the right place .

"You can deal with telling the others or keeping her human disguise, I don't care," Clyde said, "but today, we're doing some vampire hunting . "

Toru's eyes were wide after he explained the situation to him .

"Clyde are you out of your f.u.c.king mind?" he hissed . "Do you have any idea just how strong vampires are . Especially the females . Knowing your luck with monster girls, she'll probably make you a se—"

"We're not going there to fight," Clyde interrupted . "More like scout, check things out . And if this Sazuki's sister, Harumi may be able to talk some sense into her . "

"And if she can't, you'll get us all killed," Toru said .

"No one's making you join," Clyde said . Only he was forced, a mandatory, story quest . Either he'd complete it or face penalties .

"But you know I'm coming," Toru said . "The last time I've seen Kiko was when she reject…" he paused . "Never mind . Meet up at noon, you say . "

"Yep," Clyde said . "And make sure your gear is all good to go and upgraded . "

"Upgraded?" Toru said . "Do you even pay attention to my fighting style?"

"I—"

"Let me show you, leader," he said with a sarcastic bite .

[Your friend Toru has challenged you to Spar . ]

"Don't hurt each other, okay?" Fumi said .

Chika, blow pop in her mouth, stepped out of a vehicle with a butler in the driver's seat . The one who opened her door, bowed slightly as she whispered what appeared to be orders . He entered the black vehicle and they were off . A flash of l.u.s.t glowed from her eyes, even as she ignored the obvious standoff between the two young men . Fumi didn't seem to exist to her either .

"Don't stop on my account," she said, the grabbed Clyde the s.h.i.+rt collar . "But I need to talk to you about this stupid hunt business afterward . Alone . "

She shoved her well-coated lollipop into Clyde's mouth when he opened to protest . As she pa.s.sed Fumi to sit, she muttered, "Idiot Toru . Well, can't say I didn't see this coming . "
