Chapter 4 - Supernatural Union?⁴

. . .

"Wah—!"

Bam!

The time was 4 in the morning as a girl has fallen to the floor crying in pain as she rubbed her hand on her back to ease the pain.

"Ow, ow... ugh... last night was terrible..."

Flashbacks to what happened, Nehime was chased by a wolf giant and end up finding that the Student Co. President is some secret agent keeping society stable as of now... that is what she came up with.

"... I should ask what happened..."

I tried to grab hold of something to help me get up, but what I felt was something soft, like a leg.

"Ah... Y-Yomu?-?" I stuttered as I fall on my butt as I glanced at the fallen prince. He sat there, he doesn't look like he was uncomfortable, however, he slept soundlessly.

I tried to wake him up, but nothing is working on him. I tried pulling him off my chair but I soon regretted my action. He fell on me as I tried to carry his weight, which seems light for a boy. But it doesn't mean I can carry him.

"Wake... up... you bastard!—ahh!"

Next moment, we're on the floor. I was at the bottom while he was on top, you could say it's fanservice, but my lungs are getting squished as I have a frail body.

"Hm~"

Stop enjoying this you bastard!

Then my left was free, I instantly launch a slap.

Slap!

But that made it much worse as I had nothing to support his face, his face ended up landing on my breast. Right now, I wasn't bothered since my body is about to die. But that moment ended quickly as he already stood up.

I sat up straight "... Um, what do I say?" I felt awkward at this moment.

"You could say thank you~ technically you assaulted me~," He said as if he was the victim.

"W-What! no, you—"

"So, you are saying I assaulted you when I was asleep~?" He retorted playfully.

"W-Wait... b-but... I-I didn't, 'sniff'," Nehime started to cry lightly as tears urging to fall.

Yomu then reacted as he didn't expect this kind of response, he slowly sat in front of her. He held her chin and lift it, then he faced her as their faces were inches away. It was silent for seconds as Nehime blushes, then Yomu smirked.

"Heh~ you think I can't see through your act~?"

No answer was answered since one already received one, which was a right hook to the jaw.

"How did you know?" Her usual demeanour has finally come back.

"I have been observing you since our date, you wouldn't be emotionally triggered if it isn't serious," Yomu spoke in a calculating manner while fixing his mandible.

"Tch, I thought my acting skills were superb as I had an advantage of you not knowing me long enough," She grunted.

. . .

In the bathroom of the same place where the sun shone, there were sounds of water dripping in the shower, a girl in it was in thought.

"I can tell he's a playboy."

Drips of water went as all left in the drain with the shower continuing to cleanse my body. I put on some shampoo as I showered while I talked to myself, recollecting what he said before leaving...

"... See you later in school~..."

... Is he going to transfer to my school? I know he is the same age as me since I asked him in Akiba, but I know my school has too many requirements for transfers, so that is almost impossible... doesn't matter!

Wait, it is possible... what happens if he becomes a teacher at my school!

The next moving thought, Nehime remembers all the novel she read about Teacher x Students, her head was steaming.

'Ahh!' She crouches down and covers her face with her hands as her face became redder, red like a tomato.

The shower continues with dirty thoughts flowing Nehime's head like a stream, which is kind of ironic if you think about it.

. . .

Walking the road, we see a girl in a black uniform that emanates elite, Saint Highschool or Seijin Highschool, an Elite school only 10 per cent of the best students can go to.

The girl who wore the uniform was Nehime, but this time her hair isn't a mess. She wore a hair clip and make-up, with little changes, they seem like they are not the same person.

"Natsuko-san!"

While Nehime walks the road, an attractive boy was running along and beside him was a beautiful girl walking.

"Ah, morning Tsukasa-san and Yuri-san," Nehime said.

The two peoples clothes were the same as Nehime, they both wore the same uniforms, meaning the same school. The boy had short brown hair, while the girl had pony-tail with her hair coloured black.

"Emotionless as usual?" The kid name Tsukasa spoke with familiarity.

"No, it just takes to much energy to speak."

"Really? Nehime-san?" The girl name Yuri spoke.

"I don't know, just ask the internet."

The trio talked while they walked to school with the streets starting fill with students of the same uniform, this time Nehime starts to attract the people.

"... Wow, never thought I get to meet the top beauty!"

"Yeah, me too, the 'Ice Queen' looks still beautiful~!"

"Really? She has been walking with us since the beginning of the year."

"Who cares!..."

Arriving at the gate while the whole school was filled in chatter about 'Ice Queen', Nehime remembered last night.

"I will see you guys later, Student Council needs me," Nehime said as she separated from the two.

"You're not in the Council, right?" Tsukasa asked as the two stop to talk.

"No, idiot, they just need me" Nehime mocked.

"Eh? You don't have to be rude."

When Tsukasa said his words, she was already on her way towards the student council.

"She doesn't like me, right?" Tsukasa questioned.

"As one of the most popular kids and a hidden idiot, no, you are just an idiot," Yuri joked as she walks away.

"What?!— W-Wait for me."

. . .

In the hallway, Nehime was seen walking, her expression was stiff, remembering the night of yesterday.

'I need to know.'

That was her thought before she could dream, always the thought that relates to her thirst of curiosity. Walking the halls, the atmosphere shifted, it felt the same as before.

'That bad feeling is crawling back...' Nehime continued walking towards the Student Council room, knowing it is the safest place to go to.

Good fortune, she arrived at her destination.

"Good morning Nehime-san."

Going inside the spacious room, she was greeted by a boy. He wore glasses, wearing also the school uniform. He had black curly hair, but a little straighten for formalities with foreign features but kept Japanese traits as well.

"Morning Hori-fukukaichou," Nehime replied.

"Hana-Kaichou is in that room waiting for you," Hori went straight to the point and pointed at the room.

"Thank you Hori-san," Nehime bowed to show politeness.

"You don't have to be formal, we have known each other for a while," Hori tried to ease up the mood, but he was politely rejected.

"Sorry, but I like to keep it formal," Nehime spoke with an expressionless face.

She walks towards the room, ignoring Hori completely.

"Stubborn girl, she truly earned the 'Ice Queen' title, huh, reminds of some story I read recently..."

. . .

"Welcome," On the chair, it was Hana, who spoke.

"Stop with villain lines, it makes me cringe."

I went up and sat in front of Hana, I looked at her waiting for an answer.

"Okay~ I thought it would loosen the atmosphere a little," Hana spun her chair showing her playful side.

"Yeah, sure, giant werewolves chewing on a toy arm would definitely let me loosen up," Starting pessimistically.

"I thought you were much cuter than this Nehime-chan, they should have named you 'Ice Cream' instead, haha~ also who was that boy, he sure was pretty~," Nehime chuckled.

"W-What how did you know?"

"A person who can slash up giant werewolves and disappear like the flash, do I have a better reason~?"

"Good point."

The conversation has loosened a bit as I felt a bit more comfortable to talk, feeling stiff and voice stiff, I still don't feel good.

"So, what was that creature specifically?" I finally went back to the main topic.

"Since it wouldn't be fair to hold back information, I shall speak. The werewolves you saw is called 'Lykos' in English—"

"—Wolf," I said, finishing her sentence.

"Yep, did you learn greek or something~"

"Nope, it's just 4 years experience of being an Author," I said to ruin her expectation.

I got into thought, "Are you sure that's what you only call it?" I continued asking.

"Sharp, yes, the other name we call it is, Loga, short for Loup Garou," Nehime continued, "The world we live isn't normal just to start, I know, shocking~? or not? Since you are a known fantasy Novelist, I guess you can take it..."

The world has lots of large realms, some can be millions of times larger than Earth, the Main Realms are iconic, 'Underworld' and 'Heaven', how they travel to each other is complicated as they can only travel through the Earth, or the 'Middle World'. But, this caused problems, to what the word we are familiar, it is called the 'Supernatural'.

"Supernatural?"

"Yes, it is a created force through 'Power' it acts like mana, but it can be sometimes personal."

Sheer will get you the 'Power', the more will and the stronger your will is, the more powerful your 'Power' can be. It is like some innate ability that takes things from your trait. This force can also influence the world around it, that is how the world has come to be, the 'Supernatural'.

"We categories the Lykos or the Loga as an Extrinsic Hollow, Hollows for creatures without thoughts."

Hana continues, "We call it Extrinsic Hollow because his power influence its appearance also another category, the Intrinsic Hollow which is the opposite, meaning their power does not influence their appearance, I think you're smart enough to think of an example~"

Going through what Hana said, the world seems more open. Huh, so myths and Gods could exist?

"But why are you saying this to me?" Noticing some gaps are missing, I hastily asked.

"Because we need you to help us," This time, Hana spoke more solemn.

"... Hah... you mean these flimsy arms can help you?"

"We can fix that, also, you have no choice. Your safety isn't ensured anymore~," She smiled, this time it startled me.

"What do you mean?"

"With some errors we made, we somehow got you in the mess, if we erase your memories, the same safety you had won't be there," She paused, then resumed speaking, "we can't be your personal 24/7 security channel, it is some weird phenomenon we can't fix, therefore you have to join us," Hana bowed a little to show her apology.

"... Too bad... also I wouldn't want to die too early," I went to my mind to arrange my thoughts. Things seem to be different... I believe life wouldn't be the same.

"To make sure, can you truly keep my friends, family and me, safe?"

"We ensure that any close ones will be safe and I would train you to be a good soldier to lower your risk of dying~," Hana smiled that brought chills to my spine.

"... Ha-ha... so, what chuuni organization am I in?" I ask as the final question.

She smirked as she then puffs her chest showing how proud she is.

"We are the Supernatural Union that keeps creatures from the supernatural away from the normal world..."

"... We are the Global Operative Federation Magical Association and I am one of the Seven Leaders... for short, we are called 'Gofma'."
