"Alas, I would like to inquire if… there had been any problem with Ravel," The Phenex Heir inquired quietly. "I assume things have been fine for her first day. Am I right?"

I restrained a flinch. "Mostly. There was a slight issue that was solved just recently. Nothing to worry about."

…

Ruval blinked, sporting an intrigued and partly worried look. "How much of an issue are we talking about?"

"The kind of issue that was dealt with accordingly considering the rules of the Academy. Ravel was… targeted with some insults by some classmates.

These very classmates were also implicated in thievery, and as such they were reprimanded and properly expelled from Kuoh Academy."

He stared me for a long time, and I could tell that this stern reaction came from his brotherly worry.

"That sounds incredibly… swift."

"She told me about the matter when she was done with her classes the first day. I started to investigate the matter on my own and discovered the full extent of the matter,"

I assured him with a nod. "I will forward some proposals to deal with the possibility of both bullying and thievery from ever happening.

It will be tough considering that some measures I can't adopt are restrictive of personal freedom."

"And that wouldn't do with someone that is as just and fair as you're Sir Hoitsu."

Ingvild smiled and nodded in agreement at the praise. "Hoitsu-kun is quite the kind and good person."

Asia nodded too, but didn't speak anything about it. Maybe she had taken notice of the fact I wasn't handling the compliments well.

This storm of praises wasn't just helping with the post-audition's uneasiness and the fact I had to thread with Ruval's brotherly concerns was enough to leave me in an awkward position for a little while.

The conversation continued a little longer, with the four of us eventually having to part for our respective ways.

I took notice of the fact that both Rias and Akeno were skipping the rest of the classes, leaving me thinking that the redhead's father would have invited the Phenex family for a visit at their manor to cement their friendship.

And while the rest of the school way went on as normally as it should go, I was surprised when Koneko asked to be helped about an upcoming math test.

The request wasn't much of a surprise and I did offer her some assistance if she ever needed it, but I hadn't expected for her to come back at the house so quickly after what happened the night before.

But that paled at the fact that there was definitely something 'more' about her attachment to me, and I could tell from the way she kept close to me as Kunou was.

Well, a little less considering that the young kitsune wasn't shy from claiming hugs and to hold my arm whenever we were talking.

To the silver-haired Nekoshou, that kind of interaction was a tiny step too far… but still, she seemed rather at ease around us and she didn't seem as tense as she used to be a while ago.

Was this progress? I couldn't exactly tell and… maybe it was about time I stopped jinxing myself.

With that thought burned in my brain, I decided to make plans to avoid any serious issues before Azazel's visit.

I didn't need to face any emergencies, and I wasn't planning to make any mistakes with the current state of things.

But while I was set with this mindset, I was stupidly forgetting that Murphy was a thing.

And just as the trio silently retreated away for a simple afternoon filled with homework, a quiet observer smiled mischievously at the interesting discovery she just made out of pure luck.

She smiled, her tails twirling in delight as she prepared a plan.

"To think I would find ya like this. What are the odds~?" The observer whispered giddily.

Maybe I should've expected for things to be far from idyllic. Even that walk, that simple action that had long grown in me as a good thing to go through without fearing any problem, soon was tainted by the chances of being ambushed.

The first clue that today was far from 'over' came in the form of a single statement that only I heard as it was established within my head.

Someone is trailing us.

The mere affirmation caused me to tense up momentarily, just for a brief moment as I continued to stare forward and ignore the need to check around the group.

Ingvild had decided against staying back at school to finish some of the preparations needed for Hamlet, with Baraqiel having refused the duty of picking her up to not risk chances of finding her daughter around the premises of the school.

Thus it was just me, Kunou, Invgild, and Koneko. And our tracker.

Someone I know about?

…I don't know. I think the energy pattern is familiar. Maybe something I've felt while I was dormant… thus not someone from this town.

And that reply offered me much and close to nothing. While this crossed the possibility of it being some Devils in Kuoh Town following us, it didn't help me lessen the various candidates that could've been behind this ordeal.

All candidates were equally troublesome, with a couple of exceptions that made any encounters nightmarish.

Starting with Ophis. The Infinity Dragon would definitely love to make a comeback after so long, but I would have seen her attack now, directly and without any waiting.

Kimiko would easily win another battle about that…

Next were the Pendragon Siblings. They didn't have a reason to hunt me down but… who knows what people do in this universe without a legitimate reason behind their actions.

Then there was… Cao-Cao? He couldn't track me down… especially when his priority should be retrieving True Longinus before finding me.

Finally… Rivezim? The man would've been recognized by Lucifer, and just like Ophis, wouldn't have wasted time trailing us.

Who was hunting us? And why did I feel like I should facepalm right now?

Instead of lingering on these inconsequential thoughts, I shifted my attention to another situation. I could technically get us all out of there and back to home.
