Instructing while practicing proved to be a positive experience.
'That outcome was surprising...'
Light believed that even if he had practiced alone, he would have obtained a similar result.
"I'm going to leave now." Light communicated, and added: "Raynare, remember to show Asia to her new lodgings."
"Understood, Light-sama!" Raynare confirmed, with a solemn tone.

Gliding with his dark purple lightning wings, Light was observing the city streets when he suddenly stopped his flight.
He quickly returned and, in the blink of an eye, found himself in a deserted alleyway.
When he came out, he walked calmly with a mild expression.
Straightening his tie, Light walked until he spotted three people in the distance.
They were two girls and a boy.
When he got close enough, Light said hello as he stood in front of them: "Long time, Himari, Rinko and... Yuto."
"Light..." Yuto showed displeasure on his face.
"Yes, how long." Himari and Rinko replied in unison.
Yuto's countenance darkened as he noticed the girls' friendly greeting to Light. However, he may have misunderstood, as they had only greeted him courteously.
"There's something in your hair, Himari." Light observed. Then he added when he saw her trying to take it out: "Allow me to remove it..."
"Light?!"
Yuto, who had seemed lost in his own thoughts until then, saw Light coming even closer to Himari and reaching out towards Himari's face; he couldn't contain his indignation and exclaimed with noticeable anger in his voice.
"Here..." Light displayed a green leaf he had removed from Himari's hair as if he hadn't heard Yuto.
Yuto, whose vision was obstructed by Light, misinterpreted the situation and grabbed Light by the shoulder: "You bastard...!
"Get away from Himari, you insolent bastard!" He shouted, throwing a punch as Light turned towards him.
Yuto's fist was about to hit Light's face, but Himari's delicate hand appeared unexpectedly, protecting him.
"Young master, there's been a misunderstanding..." Himari tried to clarify.
"Damn it, Himari!" Yuto interrupted her, obviously annoyed: "Why are you protecting this guy? Don't you realize that he wants to take advantage of you?"
"Yuto!" Rinko intervened: "I saw everything. Light just pulled a leaf out of Himari's hair... You're confusing things!"
"Rinko!" Yuto glared at her: "You've always been naive. I'm sure there was no leaf, he probably had it with him and used it as a pretext to get close to Himari!"
"You're being unreasonable, young master!" Himari was perplexed by his reaction.
"Unreasonable? I'm being unreasonable?"
Something in those words seemed to inflame Yuto's anger even more.
Himari sighed and, turning to Light, asked, "I apologize for that, Light-san..."
"It's okay, I understand." Light said understandingly with a gentle smile on his face: "He must be angry about something, I won't take it seriously."
"Good, you're kind, Light." Himari said.
"Kind, him?" Yuto went ballistic: "Damn it, Himari, can't you see you're being played?!"
At Yuto's reaction, Himari was speechless and her expression became tense.
Himari had an embarrassed look on her face and was at a loss for words as she looked at Yuto and then at Light.
Yuto's look at Light already had a hint of displeasure, and now it intensified. He even thought that Himari and Rinko's attitude that day was repulsive. Rinko that day was repulsive.
The feeling of being betrayed by not trusting what he said grew, and Yuto gritted his teeth hard.
"Young master..." Himari noticed Yuto's gaze and felt a little disappointed by his reaction.
"I'm not wrong!" He exclaimed, "You two are idiots, I don't care anymore!"
Yuto disregarded her and, with a cold countenance, left without uttering a word or looking back.
He felt that if he stayed there any longer, he might lose his composure and try to hit Light again.
For as long as he could remember, he had never felt as disgusted with anyone as he had with Light.
Light was undoubtedly the villain here!
His mere presence was a monstrosity to him.
Today, however, it was mainly Yuto's fault that he had misinterpreted Light...
And this aversion wasn't recent; ever since his 16th birthday, Yuto had felt this growing animosity towards Light. It seemed that the more he saw of Light, the more unbearable he became.
'I'm right, it's his fault for getting so close to Himari using those cheap tricks!' Yuto thought, trying to justify his actions.
"We apologize for that...!" Visibly embarrassed, Himari and Rinko apologized and then left.

[You have shaken Rinko Kuzaki's trust in Yuto Amakawa! Yuto Amakawa lost 20 fortune points! You received 100 Fate Points!]

A system alert echoed in Light's mind, and a holographic page appeared before his eyes as soon as they turned away. A playful smile appeared on his face, as everything had gone according to plan. No, it was even better!
Himari, despite being an impulsive Ayakashi, was perceptive. She realized who was really in the wrong...
With just a few maneuvers and confusions that he had intentionally created, Light had managed to make Yuto lose his composure.
Now Himari wondered: had Yuto really changed so much since they first met as children? To her, Yuto had always been an upstanding, kind and determined human being.
It's worth noting that a large part of Yuto's recent increase in fortune has come thanks to Himari, who is a Bakeneko. Over the last few days, even without the Light Ferry, Yuto must have had many opportunities, bringing his Fortune Value up to 200. However, after this incident, that value dropped to 80.
'It was too simple to mess with him...' Light laughed in his mind and thought: 'Is it because of my Predestined Villain Halo?
Yuto's reactions exceeded his expectations. Light had only intended to create a small rift in the relationship between Yuto and Himari. However, the outcome was even more surprising.
There was even a bonus coming from Rinko, who although also one of Yuto's heroines, she had a minor role and therefore little Fortune Value.
On returning home, Light was in a remarkably good mood.
'Confronting those Chosen by Fortune is really rewarding...' Light reflected, with a satisfied smile.
"I'm home." He announced as he entered the house.
"Hi, big brother!" Sayu greeted him, running to the door. "You took your time! Were you with a girl?"
"Haha, something like that." Light replied, without denying it.
After changing his shoes, he entered the house.
"Really? What's she like?" Sayu asked curiously. "Introduce me to her sometime!"
"Sure." Light nodded. "I'm exhausted, I'm going to my room."
"Remember to introduce me to your girlfriend, okay?" Sayu called out as he walked away.
Light just nodded in response.
Once in his room, he turned on his computer. After a few clicks, he uploaded a previously edited video to his channel: Scream.

"Getsuga.... Tenshou!" The voice of a young teenager resounds through the school corridors.
"It's perfect, Motohama!"
"Really, Matsuda?"
"Yes, it is!"
"What are you guys talking about?" A third boy joins the conversation.
"Issei!" Motohama exclaimed. "Didn't you watch the latest Scream video?"
"Oh, no, I didn't." Issei admitted.
"What happened, Issei?" Matsuda asked. "You seem a bit down."
"It's just..." Issei hesitated before continuing, "It's about my girlfriend Yuuma-chan..."
"What? What are you talking about, Issei?" Motohama let out a laugh. "Since when do you have a girlfriend?"
"Hahaha!" Matsuda also laughed, teasing: "Let me guess, you're playing one of those dating simulation games, and you think she's real, don't you, Issei?"
Issei, ignoring his friends' mockery, asked: "Do you really not remember Yuuma-chan?"
Some distance away, Light glanced in Issei's direction.
'He's still breathing, though...' Light let out a sigh: "Unfortunately, he's no longer a Chosen by Fortune.
Not that Light had high hopes that Issei would remain a Chosen One after having his Fortune reduced to zero and being killed by him. However, to say that he harbored no expectations would be a lie.
"Light Yagami."
Hearing someone pronounce his full name, Light turned around.
"Sona Sitri-kaichou." Light asked, "Is there anything you want to discuss with me?"
"Yes, if it's no trouble." She replied, adjusting her glasses. "Could you meet me at the student council after school?"
"Sure." Light agreed.
