บท 27: Chapter 26

I've spent the last 3 days not doing much, just thinking mostly about what to do with Origami's parents. I've talked a lot with Origami, although most of it was just her begging, trying to convince me or cussing me out so that I wouldn't do anything to her parents.

Of course, I've at least taken some care of her, so there haven't been any issues with meals and hygiene, although she's been naked the whole time so I can't say the comfort is the best.

I decided that this matter is too complex to solve by thinking so little, I deduce that I still have a few months before the world changes, considering the fact that Origami is with Metatron earlier than she should be.

Anyway, Origami gets food instantly and the current extends if she needs to go to the bathroom, so I can just ignore her. It's not like she can escape without help, since she can't use her powers.

Since I didn't go to school, Shiori sent me messages showing concern, and letting me know that the school will be hosting some kind of event with another school, that being Rindouji School.

"An event, huh... would that be the one with Miku's school?" my memory of some events is hazy due to the long time since I've seen the Anime.

"...Miku likes girls... Shiori will try to seal her?" I murmur to myself since I'm alone and no one will hear.

"Gabriel... a brainwashing Angel, huh, interesting... I wonder if I could steal him? This time without killing the Spirit, after all, I still have no idea what happened to Mukuro, so I need to find a place to keep the Sephira safe."

"Shiori... the Sephira needs compatibility... the person who isn't compatible will probably die... I wonder if Shiori as the protagonist couldn't use it?" I murmur to myself.

I'm tempted to have Shiori use Gabriel for me, since I'll make Shiori mine anyway, so there's no problem with making her stronger.

"Well, I'll leave that for the future, I have to go to school first."

I start getting ready to leave, the same monotonous routine of preparing and walking to school.

Arriving there and entering the classroom, I see that the class is about the theme they're going to choose for the event.

"Right on time, Kuroiwa-san, we ended up coming earlier to choose the theme," Tamae says to me, as I was the last to arrive.

"Ho, Aurelio-san is here, what theme do you suggest?" Tonomachi asks me, making the focus of the class turn to me, as I'm considerably popular.

"A theme, huh... How about a Maid Café, I'm sure the students from other classes and schools would love to see that at the event," I use the same idea from the anime to avoid change.

The boys and girls think for a moment, then the boys get excited about the idea of seeing the girls dressed as maids.

Tonomachi gives me a thumbs up with a smile, while several other boys approve the idea, and the girls also don't see any issues and accept.

Although Shiori accepts, she seems embarrassed about having to dress up as a maid.

"Don't worry too much, Shiori, I'm sure you'll look beautiful," I tell her, which only makes her more embarrassed.

"W-well... maybe," she says.

The students now start forming groups to discuss how to do the Maid Café. I ignore the groups, grab Shiori's hand, and take her with me, she seems surprised but follows without trying to resist.

"Shiori, are you okay?" I ask her, as she seems doubtful.

"Yes? I'm fine."

"I'm referring to what happened on the island, the situation was at least... chaotic," I say to her, and I see a flash of understanding.

"Yes, luckily nothing happened to me." I notice that students from other schools are already walking around here.

'Was it like this in the original? I don't remember well... but it doesn't matter.'

I think Shiori has already met Miku, but I'm not sure, I decided on a different approach, using the barrier to prevent Shiori's communicator from hearing, since I don't know if Kotori is online right now.

"Shiori, I know about the Spirits," I say to her bluntly, as if it were news about the weather, she doesn't react at first, not really understanding, but soon I see surprise in her eyes.

"Don't tell anyone, Shiori, I'm only telling you this because I trust you very much," Even if she tells, it's not relevant, if she tells Kotori, I can use that to guilt her for lying to me.

She nods quickly, as if the mere idea of deceiving me never crossed her mind.

"So... I know you're helping the Spirits... so I decided to give you a little help," she listens attentively.

"You've already met that spirit who wears a yellow outfit with blue and white details. She also has purple-blue hair and a beautiful voice," she seems surprised by the description.

"Yes, I've seen her... it was last night," she confirms what I suspected.

"Great, then I'll give you some information that will help, first... she likes girls," Shiori seems surprised by the statement, since as Shiori encountered her as a girl, I bet they didn't end up discovering this information.

"Second, she'll show up at this school, her name is Miku Izayoi, and she's a famous idol who uses the pseudonym of..." what was it again, I try to remember the pseudonym.

"Yuki... no, Yuri, Yuri Yoimachi, that's the pseudonym you can use," I tell her and wait for Shiori's response.

"A-Aurélio-kun... you don't have a problem with this?" Shiori asks with doubt.

"A problem with what?" I'm not sure what she's talking about, so I ask.

"With... me... having dates with these girls," she says with a slight fear in her voice.

"..."

'So Shiori fears that I won't like it? Or is she afraid that she can't have a relationship with me because of this? Does she realize what she's saying? It's almost like a girl who's afraid the guy she likes will find out she's with someone else at the moment.'

"Shiori... shouldn't you ask if I have a problem with the Spirits?" I divert from her question, and hearing my question, Shiori gets embarrassed, probably realizing what she asked.

"Yes... yes, that's it... I just made a mistake for a moment... Aurélio-kun, do you have a problem with Spirits?" She speaks hesitantly and then asks.

"No, I don't see any problem with them. If I did, I wouldn't be helping you by giving you information now, would I?" I am one, after all, why would I have problems with it.

"Yes... that's right," She seems slightly relieved.

I notice that one of the groups passing by here is Miku's.

"There, Shiori, that's the girl who is the Spirit I told you about," I hold Shiori's shoulders and turn her in the direction where Miku is.

"Do you want to go help this Spirit? I can make you get close to her and even get her friendship," I whisper in Shiori's ear.

"Really?" Shiori asks.

"Of course, it's not hard, I have a plan, just listen to me carefully and do exactly what I tell you, okay?"

"Yes, thank you, Aurélio-kun," She thanks me with a smile.

Change of POV to Miku:

I'm walking through the corridors of this school, honestly there are so many men that it's disgusting, I'd rather be with my girls in my room than here.

My group is walking, when I notice that the number of people has strangely decreased to almost no one. I look back and see that there's no one there either, I end up getting distracted and someone comes from the corner and hits me, knocking me down and falling together.

I'm going to complain about who's running around there when I notice.

"..."

A beautiful girl with blue hair and brown eyes, her long blue hair seems soft and silky, falling to her waist which has lovely curves, her breasts are modest but create a beautiful harmony with her body, although brown eyes are common in this girl, it creates a beautiful contrast.

"Beautiful..." I murmur to myself, seeing how this girl is beautiful, but I see that she has tears in her eyes and her makeup is slightly smudged.

"Hick..hick" I hear sobs coming from her, when my group notices what happened they come to try to get the girl off me, but I stop them with a wave of my hand and a cold look.

"Are you okay?" I ask, gently embracing her, her floral scent is wonderful, and her hair is softer than I imagined.

"Hick" she's trembling in my arms as she cries.

'I bet it was a man who made this beautiful girl cry.'

I continue to hug her as she cries softly, wetting my uniform slightly, but I don't mind, just being hugged with this beauty is worth the cost.

After a few moments she finally calms down.

"T-Thank you," She thanks me timidly, her innocence and shyness enchant me.

"Do you want to talk to me..." I ask her, as she looks at the girls in my group.

"You can go," I tell my group.

"But... okay, Miku-sama, we're going," One of them was going to argue, but I give a cold look and they leave.

"Come with me, let's talk in a more private place," I say, gently wiping the smudged makeup off her face.

'Even with the makeup messed up, she's still beautiful.' I think she's the most beautiful girl I've ever met, and I remember that she was the girl I met last night at the stadium when I was singing.

'!!! It must be destiny... yes, it can only be destiny to find this beautiful girl 2 times in a row.' I get up, gently holding her hand as I lead her to one of the rooms.

'Her hands are so soft... I want her, I want this girl, I need her.' I want this girl as mine, I can't let her be alone for some disgusting guy to steal.

"Can you tell me your name?" I ask with elegance.

"Y-yes, it's... it's Shiori," she says timidly.

"Shiori, what a beautiful name, my name is Miku, Miku Izayoi."

'Even her name is beautiful, I want to know more... why was she crying?' this doubt arises in me.

"Shiori... why were you crying?" I ask delicately.

She trembles slightly and lowers her head.

"I-It was hick...a man...who was chasing me hick...after I rejected him," she says, her body trembling with fear as she sobs.

'I knew it, it must have been those disgusting men, but it doesn't matter, now I'll take care of Shiori.'

I hug Shiori to comfort her, her stature is smaller than mine, I'm 1.65 meters tall, while Shiori seems to be around 1.55 meters.

Her small body in my arms is wonderful.

"Shiori-chan... why don't you come to my school, there I can take care of you," I say to her, wanting to take her with me.

"I-I'm sorry... but I can't," She denies it with shyness but conviction.

"..."

'I can't just lose this girl.'

"Shiori-chan, I want you to come to Rindouji High School," I say, using my power.

"I...I can't,"

"..."

'Impossible, no girl has ever refused me.'

"Shiori-chan, I order you to come to Rindouji High School," I use my ability on her with more force.

"...I... still can't go, I'm sorry, Miku," She denies my request again.

"...I see, Shiori-chan is special, more than I expected."

"Shiori-chan," I say her name, tightening my hug a little.

"Are you a Spirit?"

"...No," She denies.

"...Shiori-chan, so how can you resist my ability? You don't need to lie," I say to her, trying to get her to talk.

"I'm not a Spirit... but I have the power to seal a Spirit," she says.

"..."

'This is serious? How...'

"Miku... are you a Spirit?" She asks me.

"Yes..." I confirm, thinking about how I can make Shiori mine without my powers.

"Miku... if I seal your powers, you can have a normal life," Shiori tells me.

"...I don't need that, why would I let you seal my powers?" I deny the hypothesis, which is simply ridiculous to me.

"Then... I challenge you," Shiori says with slight confidence, but still has a timid tone.

"Challenge? What kind?" I ask.

"If... my school wins the event, you let me seal your powers."

"Interesting... then if my school wins, you become mine."

"I accept."

'Perfect, she'll never be able to beat me in a competition,' I accept her proposal with absolute confidence in my victory.

'When I win, I'll take you to my school, Shiori.'

She gets up to walk away, while wiping the smeared makeup with a tissue.

"Bye, Shiori-chan, see you around," I say goodbye to her with a smile of victory.

End of POV:

I was watching everything, and it seems to have worked out, Miku is arrogant, she has absolute confidence in her victory and this is her biggest mistake, not even I guarantee my victory over my opponents with 100% certainty, even if they are weaker.

"You did very well, Shiori," I say, patting Shiori's head and giving her a head pat.

She smiles happily, while thanking me.

"Thank you, Aurélio-san, it was as you said."

"But... do you think I can win... she's an idol, and I'm just a normal student," she says with uncertainty.

"Of course you can, Shiori, I trust you, I know you have the potential for this, you can also ask for help from everyone in the class, remember you're not alone in this," She gets excited with what I said.

She starts walking to go back to the classroom, but stops when she notices I'm not following.

"You... aren't you coming?" she questions with doubt.

"...you can go ahead, I have something to take care of, it shouldn't take long," I tell her to go ahead.

"Okay... I'm going, bye, Aurélio-kun," She says and continues walking, I watch until she disappears around the corner and start walking.

I slowly reach the door of the room where Miku is. I open the door and enter slowly, I see her sitting in a chair, typing something on her phone.

She raises her head to see who came in, but I soon notice that although her face doesn't express it, her eyes have disgust.

"Hello... do you need something?" She asks politely.

"Yes, I do, that's why I came here," I say without much beating around the bush.

"Sorry, but I'm not from this school, so I don't know where you can find what you're looking for in the room," she speaks, but her tone is indifferent.

"No need, I've already found what I'm looking for," I have plans for Miku, I won't lose another Sephira this time, the loss of Mukuro's Sephira was unexpected, but this time I'll be more careful.

"I see," she responds briefly.

I walk around the room, approaching her position and sit in a nearby chair. I thought a lot about how to approach Miku, I want something smoother than with Mukuro.

So I'll simply fill our conversation with lies, I raise a barrier in the room to prevent anyone from entering or hearing our conversation.

"So, what do you think of the description I'm about to give you?" I say to her, drawing her attention.

"Description... of what?" she asks, as she has to maintain the idol image, she can't just rudely kick me out.

"...A beautiful girl with long raven hair, golden eyes with a mysterious glow but clear indifference towards others, she has large but not exaggerated breasts, the kind you can grasp and fill your hand."

"Graceful curves and a toned body that form a beautiful silhouette, she's around 1.70 meters tall and wears a black dress with golden frills, with a cross-shaped medallion."

"Her aura is calm, but dangerous, like the calm before the storm, she's also 17 years old, having a young but mature look overall, a beautiful woman, but you know messing with her can go wrong."

I finish my description, which caught Miku's attention.

"So what do you think of this woman?" I ask her uncertainly.

"...She's beautiful... just from the description, she'd be one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen," Miku responds with interest in her gaze.

"I see... Miku," she seems irritated by my intimacy in calling her by name.

"There are only female Spirits, you know... there's a reason for that, so a man being a Spirit is impossible," I say to her, telling her something she already knows.

"..." She seems surprised by the topic of Spirits, but as an idol, she maintains total control over her expression.

"Yes... so where are you going with this?" She doesn't hide her disgust now that I've revealed the Spirits.

"But you know, how could a Spirit be a man?" I ask.

"It's impossible, are you stupid or something?" Now she doesn't measure her words.

"Actually, it's possible... as long as the Spirit that was a woman uses an ability for that," I say, activating my astral armor in an incomplete form.

"Does the description remind you of anything?" I ask, of course the description I gave was based on an analysis of my own body, I would be like that as a woman.

"...you... if you were a girl, why did you want to become these disgusting men... and how did you do it?" she asks.

"It's my ability... and I have my reasons," I grab one of the notebooks that was on the table and throw it, using reversal it comes back to me.

She doesn't care much about the demonstration.

"...why are you telling me this?" she asks.

"...I like Shiori... but she's too... determined, don't you think her ideal is ridiculous? Sealing the power of Spirits, it's the dumbest thing I've ever heard," she agrees slightly.

"So I want your help," I say to her.
