After waking up, I noticed that the castle was pretty peaceful. Since we were in the Flugre Dimension, with Trine, I felt relatively safe, and that I also thought I should stay here, but I couldn't, not in this condition anyways. "Well, it seems like you have recovered a fair bit," Skiean said, as she popped out of nowhere. "Where were you?" and she just continued staring at me, which creeped me up a bit. She then shook the mug she had in her hand, and said, "You know, getting a cup of coffee, and all that. I thought maybe I should come here, check if you are doing alright. Let me tell you, though. At the moment, you won't feel any pain, but believe me, your body is screaming so much, the moment I let you feel the pain, you will die from shock, so I suggest you rest for now," she said, and went to close the door, when Hazen came bursting in, spilling her coffee.

"No can do... GAH! Hot! Hot! Hot!" and before managing to finish his words, he quickly took off his shirt, and ran to the bathroom. Skiean couldn't help but laugh. "Man! The funniest part is that I purposely made it spill on him! It didn't even touch me! Ha, ha!" After washing himself with water, he walked out, and seemed angry, but didn't know that it was on purpose. I tossed him a shirt, and I shouldn't have done that. My shoulder was burning with pain.

"See, I told you. You are currently at your limit. Anything you feel, will be 10 times more intense, so you are easily kill-able, in that state you are, better rest," but Hazen interjected, this time, making sure nothing spills on him. "No, we can't do that. I have people to take care of. So far we are the most vulnerable, and it'll be a big problem if the Lord isn't there, so, Johnny, please come." and I was shocked.

"I'm not the Lord, you are." and he smiled, because he knew I would have said that. "Yes, I am, but I want you to become my direct underling, Vice-Lord, we can say." I felt honored to earn such a prestige, but it didn't seem right. "Well, okay, but treat me normally, treat me like anyone else. I will only be Vice-Lord , in name, nothing else" and he smiled, and told Juni about him leaving. Juni seemed a bit sad, but she understood it well enough. He then kissed her goodbye, saying that they will meet again, someday, and when we were about to leave, I heard someone.

"Wait up!" It was Hui. She came dashing forwards, and lunged towards me, giving me a bear hug. "Goodbye, Johnny." was all she said, before letting go. I smiled at her, and said that this isn't goodbye, because I would come back, some day. After all that, we left, along with Jennifer. We trudged the muddy ground, until we reached the portal, where we had to set up the Bus. After filling some forms, we hopped on the public Bus, because we had no use of going privately, and even so, it'll cause suspicion, something we didn't want. After about a day or so of being in the Bus, we managed to enter the Human Dimension.

When we entered, the guards at the portal bowed down, noticing that Hazen was there. "Lord~Sama! You have finally returned. There is utter chaos, help us, please!" Hazen seemed to put a pompous act, and said that he couldn't act at the moment, but he will, when the time is right. "Hazen, this isn't like you, go on ahead, I can take care of myself," and he scoffed, acting all high and mighty, for some reason.

"You? An earthling, dare address me like that? I am your Lord, show some manners! Now, bow down!" and I couldn't help myself, but bow down. I could tell he was putting up an act, because while I was 'bowing' , he started lecturing me, and highlighted some words, which made me understand that, he is simply abiding to my wishes, which was that I wanted him to treat me normally. "Yes, Lord~Sama, I'm incredibly sorry for my previous actions, it will not happen again," and with that, he let me stand up once again, and we then walked away, me and Jennifer both trailing behind him. When we took a private ship to Earth, he started laughing like crazy. "Man! That felt great. Didn't know you were that submissive, ehh Johnny?" He said, nudging me. I could hear a light chuckle coming from Jennifer too. It was cute.

When we landed, we went straight to our home, and before anything could happen, I looked at Hazen, and kicked him out of the house, saying, "You still owe me 3 million yen, now, get going, Lord~Sama." and then I slammed the door. Jennifer then broke down, and started laughing like crazy. "My god, isn't that a bit cruel. Anyways, what about me? You do know I have a job, but I can't go back to the SPIRITS, they all think I'm dead. Still though, I'm thinking I should lay low now. Oh, and please, call me Jenny, Jennifer is long, and it sounds disturbing, so please, call me Jenny!" she said, with a big smile.

I forgot how she used to be. It seems like the spell managed to make her lose all her ego, and she was now, like a perfect human, personality wise. To think, just a few months ago, she was a deluded sadistic murderer. I still had to be weary , though. I heard a ring from my phone, and I decided to check on it. It was an unknown number, but I picked it anyways, even USA's entire government couldn't hack it, anyways. "Yo!" It was Hazen. I patted my pockets, and realized I still had his phone on me. "How are you calling me?" and he smiled. "I got a job.. at this fast food restaurant, the owner is a bit wacky, though. He keeps on saying how he is the Demon Lord, and all that. Probably some imposter." That was, interesting. "Well, okay, you do know the pay is horrible? You'll be working there for a few years before you can pay me back." I could tell he was disheartened. "I have none of these... degrees. I can't have an actual job, this was the best I could find! Please, man. Let me have freedom." I started laughing. "Better not have spent those 3 million yen then," and I ended the call.

After about six hours, I heard the doorbell ring and I noticed it was Hazen. "A 6 hour shift? Had fun, did you?" I said, opening the door. The moment the door opened, he plummeted to the ground, from exhaustion I presumed. I then dragged his body to the bed, and let him lay down. I then checked the time.

"Already this late. Man..." and I too, decided to go to sleep. Since my bed was occupied, I went and slept on the couch. It felt more comfortable then before. Memories started pouring into me, the good old days. The days before I had to do such work, had to be on missions fighting for the universe's safety, and whatnot. It felt good being safe and having a comfortable sleep.

"Johnny...Johnny....Johnny! Wake up! We have to leave soon!!" Jennifer said, trying to wake me up. "Eh..ehhh? What do you mean, where are we going?" I said, blinking my eyes repeatedly. "To school, baka." I forgot. It was finally rebuilt, so everyone went up a grade, and continued from there on. When we went there, I was surprised.

The walkway there was same. Me and Jennifer both went with our bags, but tryed to stay away a certain distance, so that others won't think something is going on between us. When we went through the gate, I realized they modeled it almost the exact same as before. The same ground, the same positioning of the courts, but it seemed a bit bigger, and there was a new section, which I didn't see before, but it was restricted. I half wanted to force my way through, but Jennifer stopped me. "No, keep your strength hidden, we don't want to cause a commotion, especially with this many new transfers, it seems like we are going to have some fun, won't we?" with that, we started walking around. It was 6:30 AM , and it starts at 7, so time wasn't an issue. I couldn't even prepare myself correctly, thats how much Jennifer rushed me.

I slugged my bag on my shoulder, while Jennifer started walking around, happily. "I remember, about this place. It is interlinked with my dreams. I used to be walking around here, laughing crazily, and I had a nightmare in which I tried to kill you. What was that about?" I smiled, not saying a word. While we were walking, I heard a swoosh sound, as if something was flying towards us. I then grabbed it with two fingers. "Man, you're still sharp, Johnny." I smiled, it was an old face. "Kuiy! It's been a while, hasn't it? You seem... much older. You're pretty tall too." he smiled. He was different, much different then before. "Yeah. Well, it seems like there is alot of new people, right? What were you doing with Jennifer? I never knew you two were this close..." and Jennifer blushed, hitting him. "No.. it's not like that!" she stomped away, pouting.

The bell than rang, it was a sound I haven't heard in a while. I first felt the ground, and created an artificial eyeball. "Nope, no trapdoors this time, I wonder why." We then walked in our specific positions. The previous years and new years. Alot of old faces were gone, rather there was only us three. The new years had about 20 or so students, all of them with a glare filled with evil intent. It reminded me of the Kurai Kyu. "Gah... bad memories." I couldn't stop the memories from coming. I started screaming. These were things I didn't want to see again. For some reason, my mind would replay the death of both Tou and Jennifer. I don't know why, it just kept on happening. After a while, the mic was turned on, and the memories faded, it was all blank. Nothing else, just blank. I looked up towards the person walking to the mic.

It was most likely a she, and the principal. She wore a mask over her face, and was wearing pure black clothing. The moment I heard her voice, tears started forming. "Hello boys and girls, and this is the Jinchuki School for Skilled Children. This time, however, when I was chosen to be the principal, I changed the system a bit. We are now working directly under the allegiance of both the SPIRITS and the government, hoping to create an army strong enough to defend our planet. Now, I shall explain our new system."

It was Tou. My first thought was how was she ressurected, but it was probably a job done within the government, but how did they know about the ressurection method? It couldn't have been Trinity... was it? "As I was saying, we have a seperate ground, which is meant for battling. On this campus, it is strictly forbidden to take out your Soul Emifer, or try in any way to harm the other students. In the seperate place, all of these rules are negated, you can also kill them, if you want. Every 2 years, we will have a series of 'games' in which the top 3 will be promoted to a higher rank in the government and SPIRITS, and may have a chance of joining the army , fighting the other dimensions. Now, since most of you just activated your Soul Emifer, please follow Miss Miki to a seperate place where you will be taught about all this. Please leave."

With that, 8 students left, and one of them had continuously glared at me, until he hit a pillar, and went into the room, following the others, shifting his gaze. "So, you students, along with you three, join in the middle. Since this is now a sperate section of the school, this will be told only once. Normal students are also going to come, so don't scare any of them away. We are currently building a college. You will only use your Soul Emifers and study about these things in a seperate class, which happens at the end of the normal classes. The battlefield will also be hidden, only able to be seen from those with Soul Emifers. We want you to pick out those who may have activated theres, or otherwise, live a normal highschool life. Oh, by the way, Jennifer and Johnny, both of you, at my office. Now." and she left. As we both walked , everyone started staring at us.

I caught something. "Kuiy, this is not the time to be throwing shurikens, maybe a later date," but he scoffed. "It wasn't me! I didn't do it. Whatever," and he too, left. The others also dispersed. We then knocked the door, and it opened. Tou then took off her mask, and we were able to tell why she was wearing one to begin with "Wh...what happened?" Jennifer asked. It seemed like she still remembered Tou to a degree."Wait... do I know you?" She then said. Guess she forgot. "Yes, we do know eachother. This is my second life, and they did ... this to my face, to remind me of my second life." and I was confused. "Wait, 'they' ? Who are 'they' ?" she smiled. "That, I can't tell you. Just, have fun. Two of the new students are going to be staying in your class. Kuiy and Jennifer will be in the class directly below you, rank wise. I've given you the highest position, so after a year you'll graduate, but you can still participate in the games, the first one is this year."

It seemed interesting. Her ideas. This was definetly someone different. She has grown, grown a lot. We then left, because class had started, and the normal students starting pouring in. "Guess we just have to, blend in. Don't use your powers, alright?" I told Jennifer, and she nodded. "Oh yeah, we should also stay a bit seperate, people may get the wrong idea..." with that her cheeks flushed, and she ran away, vanishing into the crowd. It was a new day, a peaceful time. A few more months maybe, before we have to do something against Raizel again. May as well train, I supposed, and starting working on getting ripped, to increase my base strength.
