Deranged Writer's Afterword

Class goes on as normal.

I find it vey hard to concentrate on class....I mean what's the point ?

We're revising the important portions since everything's already been taught. I couldn't concentrate because I had too many things to deal with,

Telling Emilia the truth.

Somehow dealing with Dina.

Acing my final exams.

These three were the most important ones, I still have a lot of other stuff to do but I'm concentrating on these three for now.

I had decided to tell Emilia the truth....the next question was the 'when' and my birthday party was the perfect time since it's going to suck either way.

About dealing with Dina....I think I'm gonna with the 'emotional threatening' plan. Just guilt her into running away somewhere far away, if that doesn't work.....I need to find a way to finish her off.

I need to find a way to kill her and I'm sure that I can.....do it.

I'm not that worried about the exams since I'm confident in my ability to study and the I already know what the practical part of the final exam entails courtesy of Laurine Gem.

In the novel, it was tournament style battle....but it's been changed now. It's good that Patrick...I mean Laurine told me...It would have been difficult otherwise.

The plot change was a little concerning but I decided to roll with it since there wasn't anything else-

" Hey.", Katherine whispers into my ears startling me.

Oh yeah.....she's been a little too quite since earlier. Katherine usually talks a lot during class.

I slightly glance at her to find that she looked worried [?]. She seemed to be struggling to say something, I wait patiently.

" My grandfather looked mad....please be careful."

" I will.", I say nodding my head.

Even thought Eustace was selfish in nature, he did have certain morals or codes he went by so he shouldn't try to kill me....but still I better prepare something just in case.

" I'm sorry for-"

" It's not your fault.", I say cutting her off.

It was obviously Eustace's fault.....that grumpy old shit.

I try my best to concentrate but my mind kept wandering elsewhere.

~~~~

It's lunch break now.

All of us sat together at our usual spot at the rooftop and ate our lunch while talking about this and that.

" How's the party coming along ?", Max asked Lecia.

" It's a secret.", Lecia says, a playful grin on her face.

I frown seeing them talking so freely.....they've gotten awfully close haven't they ?

The person who might have gone through the most change these past five months was probably Max. He's cooled down a lot and grown a lot stronger and it's all because of me...hehe.

Max asked me to introduce him to the demon king and the both of you went there, I knew that something was weird the moment he asked me but I went along with it either way.

But when we reached there, he surprised the shit out of me by begging the demon king to train him, he said that he wanted to grow stronger and of course Belial refused him....but Helmer was impressed with his guts and took him in as a disciple.

Now, this was a very huge deal because Max is a human and a demon training a human was unheard off. Rumors of Max had spread quickly within the demon's ranks. Max would use the gate to the demon's place every single day to travel and reach Belial's castle where Helmer would train Max.

I would go along with him occasionally to visit Tania and Victoria.

I used to hate Max but now I've learned to tolerate him and who knows....maybe after a century, I might come to actually like him.

" What're you staring at ?", Max asked confused.

" Huh ?"

Was I staring for too long ?

Lately it always feels like this...I feel like I'm asleep when I'm awake and awake when I'm sleeping...

.....

That doesn't make sense...

It's difficult to explain...but I feel very tired....always.

'Oh.'

I realize that everyone was looking at me weirdly.

Lecia pats me on the shoulder and asks,

​ " Are you still having the nightmares ?"

Lecia looked concerned.

I'm glad but-

" I'm completely fine."

The others also check up on me before we once again start chatting about the most random things.

~~~~

" Are you ready to leave ?", Eric asked me yawning.

" In a minute..", I say throwing in all my clothes into the bag.

A frown settles on Eric's face as he saw the mess that was my bag but what's he gonna do....pack for me ?

God...I wish he does pack for me.

This all feels like such a drag.

After packing everything important, I head outside with Eric beside me.

We were returning home since school was going to be closed for the coming week. We would normally take Lecia, but she said that was doing something with the girls, so it's just the two of us today.

As we were walking to where Victor awaited us, Eric suddenly stopped in his tracks.

" Why don't we take Max with us ?....I wanted to play a game of happy birds with him....I might finally beat him today."

Hmmmmmmmmmmm...

I suppose we can drop him off at Looter's...I could also visit Tania, it's been awhile since I saw her.

" Let's do that then.", I say

We started walking to Max's room in a hurry.

~~~~

Eric knocks twice on Max's door.

Strangely, there was no response.

We could hear muffled voices coming from inside....so he was obviously inside.

" That's weird...", Max says going to ring the bell.

Eric stops midway and says,

" Wait....he gave me the key to his room."

" Why ?", I ask curious.

" For emergencies.", Eric replied using his key to open the door.

Nobody's given me their keys....

Hmph.

Eric opens the door and pops his head inside,

" Ma-", Eric started to speak but.....pulled his head back and slammed the door shut as if he had seen something.....unpleasant.

" What's wrong ?"

" I-it's n-nothing.", Eric says blushing.

I push past him and open the door, curious to find what rattled him so much....I mean it's probably somethin-

All thoughts going on inside my mind stop as I see Max and...Lecia in the room. Seeing me, they scurried around the room like little rats to cover themselves.

What's happening here ?

Nah....it's not possible.

There must be a perfectly reasonable answer for th-

I finally notice the hickey on Max's neck.....

....

WHAT THE FUCK ?!!
