The three Fallen Angels, Raynare, Kalawarna and Mittelt with their new found servitude were feeling very out of place. They were forced to work all day long, learning how to manage the mansion.
"I can't take it anymore! The floor is clean! It's goddamn clean! Why should we still scrub it with our hands? Can't we just use magic to clean it up?" Raynare threw the wet rag at Mittelt who moved her head to the side and dodged it.
"Then what should we do? Run? Didn't you see what happened last night? Even the Satan Leviathan is shaking like a twig when talking to that cat." Mittelt sighs and Kalawarna pretty much mind her own business and diligently scrub the floor until it shines before she gives a satisfied nod and moves on to the next tile. Basically accepted her fate.
"We should make a run for it. I can't stand this anymore. I would rather die than do this." She stood up and crossed her arms, throwing a tantrum.
Meanwhile, Mittelt looks shocked like she saw a ghost and quickly gets back to scrubbing the floor while Kalawarna is doing the same thing as before, scrubbing the floor.
"Hey, don't ignore me." Raynare snorted and about to call Mittelt again when the corner of her eyes noticed the shadow was moving erratically. Instantly she felt her blood froze and ice shoved down her spine.
"Hohoh, you'd rather die than work? Then, why don't I grant your wish then." The dreaded voice causes Raynare to turn her head, almost snapping her neck.
But what she saw next is a tentacle of shadow from a sharp spear and stabbed her head. Her pain was short lasting but agonizing. She felt everything went dark and her soul was leaving her body. But then she heard him.
"Well, I say you can die. But I never say you can leave."
Then she suddenly wakes up again like she woke up from a nightmare, gasping for air like she almost drowned as she looks around in confusion.
"What…?" Raynare remembers she died. But why is she alive again?
She looked at her body, touching her head where she was stabbed and killed. Her fingers touch something warm and wet. She looks at her hand, it's blood. Her own blood that stained her body and clothes.
"Welcome back to the world of living, Raynare."
Raynare turned to look at the cat and instantly her throat and heart seized up by fear. She immediately back pedaled, trying to crawl away in fear.
"Why? Isn't it what you asked for?" The condescending tone mocking her.
"Or do you want to experience true fear?" The cat asked as his body immediately surrounded by a grotesque wriggling shadow filled with eyes and tentacles of eldritch horror kind.
But in a blink of an eye, the cat looked normal again like everything was a trick of her eyes.
"N-no! Please. I will work! Please spare me!" She immediately groveled which left the cat clicking his tongue in annoyance.
"Well, next time don't waste my time on useless things like this." The cat said before he moved on to the next topic. "Anyway, let me introduce you to the head maid and chief maid of this mansion and your superior."
A silver haired human wearing a blue and white french maid uniform with gray irised eyes. Although her eyes occasionally flash a red glint. She bowed slightly and lifted the edge of her skirt before lowering her body for a curtsey.
"Greetings, my name is Sakuya Izayoi. A maid in service to our master and the newly appointed chief maid of this mansion. From today onwards, I will teach you everything regarding housekeeping and the proper attitude of a maid as instructed by the master. I expect all of you to be a proper maid as soon as possible." She said with a dangerous glint on her eyes that sent shivers down the Fallen Angel's collective spines.
The three Fallen Angels nodded frantically in response.
"Good." Sakuya nods as she has a feeling that they have potential like diamonds in the rough.
"Well, I leave them in your good hands."
"Yes, Master. Leave them to me. I will turn them into proper maids in a few months' time."
"No need to rush, take your time." The cat nodded before he disappeared through his shadow.
Sakuya nods and looks back at the Fallen Angels after the cat leaves, menacingly.

At Kuoh Academy. Asia's first day was very eventful. She was assigned to the same class as Issei and she made friends with most of her classmates by the time recess ended.
"Yo, Issei. You know that new chick? She already knows your name. Have you met her already?"
"Is she your friend?"
Issei was dragged to the corner of the class and interrogated by the other pervert trio members, Matsuda and Motohama. However, when Asia was mentioned. Issei was shivering uncontrollably.
"Bro, you two shouldn't mess with her. What's it is, she is bad news. If her fa– guardian knows, all of us are dead meat." Issei advised his friends but was ignored.
"What? Is his uncle a gang member or something?" Matsuda scoffed.
"Yeah, we can just admire her from afar." Motohama said as he leered his lecherous gaze back at Asia while holding the rim of his glasses.
Issei is at the side already praying to the other gods out there for his friend's dead spirit. Already signing them off as dead.
