RAFFAELO POV *DONG! *DONG!! *DONG!!! My body shook as I jumped out of my bed, my sword summoned in my hand, and my body slammed to the ground with a light thud. I gripped the hilt of my sword, my eyes quaking with vitality, until reality struck me like the bell that woke me up. 'Hah, shit....still in the hostel'. I thought, a chuckle escaping my lips as I released the sword and stood up straight.@@@@ About a week has passed since the creation of the Demon Extermination Club, and quite frankly, students and staff alike were not pleased. I can still remember the number of sophomores who attempted to bully us out of our Clubrooms. 'Idiots, did they think the school would take their side just because we're members of the Great families.' I thought, stretching my body from the fatigue of the night. By the time I was done, the bell had finally come to a stop. 'Honestly, that shit is unnecessary'. I walked up to my wardrobe, picked up my towel, and headed for the bathroom. It was time for another day, and another day called for a new set of activities. I already learned of the periods we had each day. Mondays like this were the most hectic, and Fridays were the most vacant. We had seven periods, including Phys Ed., Magic Theory, Introduction to Alchemy, Combat Theory, Combat Practical, Introduction to Demonology, and History of the Kingdom. I already missed most of the classes last week, so it would be best for a new student not to attend their first classes. So, I already had a vivid plan on how to spend the day. Ten minutes later, I was done with bathing, and an extra twenty minutes, I was done with dressing up. I looked at myself in the mirror as I always do every morning, and headed towards my door. 'Yeah, this is how life should be'. On opening my door, my gazes locked with Darell's and Jane's, and a small smile formed on my lips. "Ready for today I see". I said as I walked out, locking the door behind me.

My beauty doesn't just stay like that you know, it has to be maintained". Jane chuckled and Darell face-palmed himself. "You're confident in your looks" "Of course I am, I'm beautiful. Anyone can tell that". I replied sternly, turning towards Jane. "So, how's that coming along?" Jane sighed, turning away. "Asking me to contact the Club Presidents, what were you doing?" Elsie glanced at them again, then turned away instantly. "Don't see it". Darell and Jane choked on their words in reaction, a tingling pain burning in their chest. I laughed out loud, unable to withhold it any longer, while Elsie wrapped her arms around mine, a big smile on her face as she leaned in. "My husband's the strongest." "...Hah...I told you to call me Raph" I muttered, when I felt the familiar thrill from my hand she leaned on. 'No bad thoughts, no bad thoughts, no bad thoughts'. She's been making this a habit, and I can't deny that it isn't doing things to me. I even recently began to question the age gap. I may seem 15, but I have the mind of an adult so does having a thing with girls my age make me...a menace to society? 'I mean...I don't think so, I'm 15 now, and there's no need to overthink it'. I took a glance at Elsie, noticing the brilliant smile and gaze that looked up at me. '....She's rubbing off on me....I don't think I like that'. With a sigh, I looked away, and we continued our way to the Cafeteria, lost in thought. **** A few moments later, we arrived at the Cafeteria, took our meals, and sat together in our usual spot. It had become a habit since the day the club was created to sit together on occasions such as this. It may not mean much to them, but to me, it proved they were at least open to the idea of interacting with one another. Our reputation as members of the GREAT families also served as a backbone because a lot of students avoided our particular spot, which was the farthest from the entrance to the far left. It wasn't every day you see this many of us and a beastkin sitting together while having a conversation that didn't lead to a fight. It was ironic really. At the moment, we were busy eating our meals, or at least I was until Darell spoke out. "So, we're gonna add more members, right?" He asked, turning towards Jane, who sat next to him. "Huh? Why're you asking me?" He raised a brow, taking a bite of his cake. I learned a lot about my members by their choice of food. It seemed Jane liked sweet things, and he hardly ever ate meat, despite not being a vegetarian. "You're the Vice President around you" Darell replied with a chuckle. "Huh, yes, Raph decided to make me a Vice president behind my back without my consent, and now you're trying to force me into it?" I nearly choked on my tea, coughing out lightly while Elsie stroked my back. "What do you mean, "behind my back," you said you didn't mind". I retorted, snapping towards the golden-haired boy. He shrugged his shoulders in response. "You shouldn't be upset about it. He trusted you enough to give you that position, didn't he?" Jane flinched on hearing her voice, slowly turning towards his right and looking at Ciara, who was sitting at the opposite side of the table. "Shit..." He muttered, and his cheeks flared up red. 'How cute'.
