Hanni and Moon sat facing each other. Hanni's face was filled with a sweet, warm smile.
"Hi, Moon? How was your day? Fun?," Hanni asked me.
"Yeah, pretty good. What's wrong, asking this all of a sudden?," I replied.
Hanni chuckled, covering her laughter with her hand. "Hahaha... are you hiding that pleasure from me?"
"Not at all," I replied, smiling.
"Oh, is that so! I wanted to ask your opinion about someone you met that night? Is he attractive to you? What's your answer?!."
"Eh! You know about that?," I said in surprise.
Hanni nodded and smiled, "Yes, that's how it is!"
"Yes, interesting. He is very handsome and caring. It's fun to be around him. I'm just not sure. Doesn't someone like him have other women besides me?," I said, looking at Hanni with a sad, desperate face.
"Huh, I don't think I need to worry about him. Who would put up with his attitude? Just relax! Your guess is very wrong, you know!" 'Ah, is that so! Is that okay? He is the demon king, right? If you have a relationship with me, maybe his subordinates won't accept it because I don't have any abilities."
'Ah, it's okay. The demon king doesn't like you because of your abilities," Hanni said smilingly.
Meanwhile, someone had heard the conversation. She quickly left this place.
The number of students being forcibly eliminated increased, making the Undermoon Academy students unable to stand it, and they became angry because of this.
Sarah Spencer approached a group of students who had gathered to discuss this matter.
'I can't stand it! It's terrible! Isn't this place supposed to be a safe place for us? Why are the demons attacking us!"
'Isn't that already outside the written rules? Isn't the hunting day over?"
'This isn't about the hunting day anymore! This is a forced elimination. Anyone could be a victim."
'Sarah, what do you think about this forced elimination? The person who did this is very evil and cruel. This person is definitely on the side of the dark demons!" said one of the students greeting Sarah Spencer.
Sarah Spencer smiled, 'Yes, I think so too. Among us there might be a demon king army hiding or having a relationship with them to gain power. I mean among the students of Undermoon Academy."
'Huh, right! Why couldn't we think of that?"
'Isn't it only demons that have the power of elimination? Then there must be someone among the students who has a relationship with the demons?" Sarah Spencer said.
'Yes, that's right. That's terrifying!"
Meanwhile, it is at the main gate of Undermoon Academy.
Seikyu Yuuki walked into Undermoon Academy leisurely. The students who saw his arrival made them scared by holding back their anger.
'Wow, their auras have really changed. More than demons! Is my girlfriend too?" Seikyu Yuuki smiled in his heart.
Seikyu Yuuki walked around while looking for his girlfriend. Until he found Moon and Hanni sitting on a park bench. Hanni immediately exited her seat when she saw Seikyu Yuuki's arrival. She saluted Mr. She.
'Welcome, sir. "Did you come to see someone?" Hanni greeted and saluted.
Seikyu Yuuki put her index finger on his mouth. "Shhh! That's it," she said, smiling, and then sat beside me.
Hanni just stood there looking at the two of us with a smile.
'Moon, I'll go first, okay? Rashi started calling me. See you?!" Hanni said, leaving before I could stop her.
I wanted to stop her, but she had already left. Seikyu Yuuki grabbed my hand as I was trying to call and stop Hanni. He held my hand tightly on the table.
'Calm down! Hanni must be very busy," he said.
I sat back down calmly, staring at the face of this handsome man.
'Okay! So why is this handsome man here?," I said, smiling.
'Wow, I have a very beautiful girlfriend! Sweet smile. My heart feels like stopping," Seikyu Yuuki muttered to herself, admiring her girlfriend's beauty.
'Seikyu Yuuki, you have other business besides meeting me, right?," I said.
'Ah, of course. I have business with my people here. I wonder if my girlfriend studying at Undermoon Academy is well received?" Seikyu Yuuki replied, looking at me with a sweet smile on his face.
'So that's it! That's right, Hanni said you as master. Is it okay for a guy to like a girl like me?"
'I don't mind at all. I will always wait for you here even though our worlds are different. Sometime I will invite you to my place. May I?"
'Yes, of course. With pleasure. But I am a bit nervous, even very nervous if I meet your parents. I'm just visiting, right?"
Seikyu Yuuki nodded, 'Oh, my! I am getting more and more interested in you. I want to know how your life is. It seems very exciting!"
I looked annoyed at Seikyu Yuuki, raising my eyebrows and staring at Seikyu Yuuki's face with a cold expression.
'What do you think I am? I am getting annoyed with you!"
'I was just kidding, but your life is indeed interesting!"
While we were busy chatting. We were visited by a group of Undermoon Academy students. They had angry faces.
'Moon! So all this was your doing? Bitch!," said one of the students who had bullied Moon before.
Seikyu Yuuki stared at the girl cynically, which immediately scared the girl, and stepped back. 'Moon, did you do a forced elimination on a fellow Undermoon Academy student?" someone asked with courage.
I immediately pulled my hand out of Seikyu Yuuki's grip and exited my seat. Seikyu Yuuki also got up from his seat.
'I don't know what you're saying, what's clear is that someone like me would do something stupid like that," I replied.
'Are you trying to defend yourself? But didn't you see the people around you? Isn't that clearly proven!" said Sarah Spencer, who appeared from the Undermoon Academy students walking closer.
I immediately looked at Seikyu Yuuki, staring at all the students with a cold gaze.
'What do you mean blaming my woman? Huh, that's funny!," said Seikyu Yuuki, laughing at them all, which made them even angrier.
Alpha Grey, vampire Theo, their colleagues, Professor Aria Star, Hanni, and Rashi immediately came when the commotion was clearly heard in their ears.
Alpha Grey was surprised to see Seikyu Yuuki, the demon king, here and close to Moon. But he didn't think badly, so he was at the front to protect Moon from the students' attacks.
'Calm down everyone! You can't just accuse Moon. You all could be punished like this. Can you show evidence that Moon is the culprit? Sarah Spencer!," Alpha Grey said with a cold smile.
'Eh! Of course. Isn't it obvious from the humor circulating that Moon is the culprit!," Sarah Spencer said.
'Wow, your thoughts are so shallow!," Alpha Grey's colleague said, belittling Sarah Spencer.
'What do you mean? Isn't it obvious, the man beside she! Isn't that how she can have abilities by sacrificing others. How could she possibly have red dragon scales, giant snake scales, rare medicinal plants. Isn't all that obvious?!," Sarah Spencer said.
'Moon, do you have a defense?," Alpha Grey asked me.
'Of course. I won't give up, it's enough that a two-faced person like you attracts attention. Do you think I have great abilities just because I got something like that? Isn't it obvious that I was helped by Alpha Grey and her colleague! Wasn't that herbal plant helped by someone. What about you? Could it be that you were eliminated but sacrificed someone else instead?" Suddenly, everyone was shocked and started looking at Sarah Spencer.
"Huh, how could I be eliminated! I'm not a weak person like you," said Sarah Spencer, defending herself. Sarah Spencer smiled evilly and spoke again, "But what about you? The evidence is clearly in front of your eyes!. You can't deny it at all, Moon!."
"I see! Even though I don't have any magical abilities, I was slandered for eliminating Undermoon Academy students. How can I eliminate them? You know that, how?," I asked.
"That!"
All the students started thinking about how to do it. Sarah Spencer felt annoyed. She held her hand tightly until she finally said, "Of course, I was helped by that man!" She boldly pointed at the demon king, Seikyu Yuuki.
Seikyu Yuuki laughed, hiding the laughter behind the hand covering his mouth. "How funny! How could I help this girl get rid of her fellow academy members? That would only make she sad. If that was the case from the start, I would definitely have gotten rid of Alpha Grey, Vampire Theo, and Lily first." Seikyu Yuuki smiled in satisfaction.
'So how do I get rid of your friends? No evidence? Then slander me? Huh! Oh my," I said, taking a deep breath.
Professor Aria Star, who saw the situation like this and was won by Moon, quickly intervened, 'Everyone! Go back to your respective places. Let's disperse? Don't make a fuss without any evidence!"
They started to leave this place, including Hanni and Rashi, Alpha Grey, and Vampire Theo.
'Moon, are you okay?," asked Professor Aria Star.
'Yes, I'm fine. They suspect me of doing strange things too often. Even if I were the perpetrator, I definitely wouldn't do something this stupid," I replied.
'Stupid thing?," asked Professor Aria Star.
'Yes, stupid thing! A job that just wastes time. Thank you for protecting me, everyone," I said, smiling.
