After having swallowed those half-assed answers, I decided to rest and slept at night, without doing absolutely nothing else than think through hours. I was only able to manage so sleep at around 3 AM…
Oh well, thanks to this Physique, I won't wake up feeling sleepy or too tired, but still! I would had wanted to sleep more, but this is more on my fault than anybody else's.
I would like to just learn everything, but as things are going, I should do things one step at a ti. If I try to seek everything out forcefully, they might find dangerous rather than helpful.
So it's better to continue on our friendly relationships, helping one another if possible. They kept saying I would eventually learn it all, so I hope they weren't just trying to make feel better.
Anyways, I had found three possible high schools for my daughter, and maybe her friends, they were the better ones in the city, one of them was a school for all genders, and the other two were all-girl schools.
I'll have to see what they think about this, maybe they want to see boys too, or maybe not. Maybe it would be nice to bring them to each school, and of course, consult with their parents if they're okay with this and that.
But for now, breakfast ti.
After taking a bath, I jumped into the kitchen and started making so tasty breakfast, not only for and my daughter, but for Monica and also Mark, who just ssaged saying he'll co to have breakfast here before going to work.
Ding, dong~!
"Oh, that must be Mark!"
As I left the last pancake preparing on the pan, I noticed Blackie looking at the door as I opened it, his eyes seed slightly wary. He had never been like this with Mark though.
"Mark, you ca! Ah…?"
"Elayne, right?"
However, instead of Mark, it was soone else. A tall and slightly handso man (though not as handso as my Mark), Albert, that guy with the Demon from SWORD.
"Oh, it's you… Albert, isn't it?"
"Yes, that's my na."
"How… did you know where I live?"
"Rose told … Ah, sorry, she shouldn't had? I just asked and she just told nonchalantly."
"Ugh, that girl…" I facepald. "S-So anyways, did you need sothing?"
"Ah, well… I ca to talk about sothing important and- Ugh, what is this pressure I'm feeling?" Albert wondered, as a tall man appeared behind him, glaring at him with blazing eyes and a forced smile.
"Mark!" I said, greeting him.
"Oi, do you need sothing with Elayne?" Mark asked, glaring at Albert. "I'm pretty sure she never told you where she lived. Is your SWORD people still trying to recruit her? Did you co to coerce her or sothing?"
"Hm? You… who are you?" Albert suddenly responded at Mark fearlessly. "Do you think you can speak to in such a tone? Wanna have a go, bastard?"
"Hahaha… You really like joking around, don't you?" Mark seed to be really forcing the smile now, he was beginning to crack his knuckles.
"C-Calm down you two!" I sighed, stepping in between the two. "Mark, don't be impolite with Albert. He's a friend of Rose, so he's our friend too, okay? But I can understand if you were worried… Also Albert, this is Mark, he was with us when the whole dungeon happened, and has been helping us all the ti, he's also my boyfriend. So… don't treat him badly again, alright? Unless you want to kill your demon next ti."I think you should take a look at
"Geh…! O-Okay, okay, sorry. I just got surprised. He just pushed on such a threatening aura. It was instinct more than anything." Albert shrugged. "I also have terrible mory, my bad for not rembering you, man."
"Why did you co here?" Mark asked with a dead-serious tone of voice. "This is the first ti we ever talk after that incident, and last ti I checked; you were a berserk demon-possessed nutjob. That Rose talks so freely about you doesn't an we'll believe everything she says."
"I guess it's weird that a dangerous guy like steps into your girlfriend's house, huh? Are you a bit jealous I could steal her from you, big guy?" Albert gave him a cocky smile.
"Demon Killing." I said, already summoning my staff.
"A-Anyways! I ca in peace! I just wanted to talk about the powers I acquired, and about this sealing magic thing… It has been troubling for a bit." He said. "Rose said she'll co later, okay?"
"You say okay a lot." I sighed. "Mark, take it easy, it's fine. If he gets cocky again I'm going to exorcism him."
"Hahh…" Mark sighed. "S-Sorry for acting like that. A lot of things have been happening lately, I was worried he had co to kill you or sothing… After all, it wouldn't be weird if he held a grudge against what we did."
"I am a SWORD agent! Why would I ever kill her?!" Albert was shaken. "D-Do I look that scary?!"
"Yep."
"Yep."
Mark and I answered at the sa ti, further decreasing Albert's self-esteem…
"Ugh…"
"A-Anyways, let's go in! You can have so pancakes- Ahhh! Right, the pancakes! I left them in!"
I ran inside the kitchen, only to see the pancakes burnt like charcoal… Ugh, well, I lost a bit of batter, that's… fine, yeah.
"Ugh, they're ruined." I sighed, about to throw out the pancakes.
"Can I eat them?" Albert wondered. "We like it really burnt."
"What?!" Mark and I once more were synchronized.
"He, I an HE!" Albert felt embarrassed as his hand suddenly released a mass of red demonic energy, shaping into a small, demonic jaw eating the pancakes.
"Hmmm… burnt and crispy, like the beasts from hell… Crunch…"
It was Hellberos…
"Hmm? There's a lot of appealing delicacies here! Why do you humans throw them away?!" He suddenly started eating the trash, the chicken bones I threw yesterday, so stale minced at, and other things. "Hmmm, nom, nom…"
"Honestly from all things I expected a demon to eat, trash was the last one in the list." Mark was shocked.
"F-For real…" I laughed a bit.
"Hey, are you a racoon or sothing?! Stop eating the trash!" Albert reprimanded him.
