《Winter Wonderland》The Merchant from the Depths: part 27
Advertisement
When Azul was meeting with Yuuna and Jack in the VIP room, the students in Mostro lounge asked for Y/n to sing for them another song she went off stage. She eventually agreed and had an idea for the song, so she was getting ready for her magic to have the story come to life. When she came back on stage, the students cheered for her as she smiled.
[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]
The music started off again, but inside of something orchestra mixed with heavy metal like Smoke and Mirrors, it had more traditional eastern instruments played.
Floyd would let out a chuckle, "That's our angelfish, singing like a siren with her hypnotic-like voice"
"It was a good idea to have Miss Chione sing for us as Rebirth. She sure is Octavinelle's siren" Jade smirked.
Y/n would place a hand over her dress, as she began to sing in 1st person.
"Wow. I wonder if Yuuna takes lessons as Y/n as her tutor. After all, I've heard Yuu sing before" Ace whispered to Deuce, letting out a smirk.
"What? You have?" whispered Deuce to Ace.
"Heh, yep. You should've seen how Yuuna is like in bed~" Ace teased Deuce who blushed madly.
"Shut up you pervert!" Deuce whispered yelled, smacking Ace on the back as the heart boy just laughed it up, teasing Deuce on how he believed his joke.
Y/n would tilt her head towards the audience before letting out a sigh, bringing the microphone onto the mic stand, getting ready to use her magic for effects
Y/n would use magic to have a beautiful kimono appear above her with lovely designs.
The red Kimono above then appeared to have patches of blood, mainly where the girl with the red kimono had been killed.
A green-colored obi then appeared next to the red kimono, directly above Y/n.
The green obi then had blood spots on it as well, causing some students to wonder what happened.

A pair of golden hairpins then appear next to the obi.
Then, the kimono, obi, and hairpin then disappeared and reappeared on a mannequin next to Y/n, who smiled.
Y/n then turned to the audience with a yandere smile.
A purple shadow then hovered above Y/n, who sang along.
The kimono would be transferred to Y/n's body
Next was the obi, tied around Y/n's waist
The golden hairpins floated into Y/n hair, securing it.
Y/n smiled at the audience, showing her set of clothes.
Y/n would twirl around before starting to sing again.
Y/n would then have an angry look on her face.
"Damn, that had to suck" a student whispered.
"Mhm, I honestly felt bad for the wife," another one said.
"But as ways, "Concentrate," I say and stay working
Scissors clutched tightly while I cut deep into the deed
Even if these scissors have a habit of bleeding,
Sharpen them well and they'll sweep cleaner to your needs"
And with that, the crowd began to cheer
-With Yuuna, Jack, and Azul during Y/n's 2nd performance-
"What IS this place?" Jack looked around. "Are we really still on school property? Look at that huge vault...It's like some kinda bank"
"Mhm.." Yuuna agreed.
"All right, that's enough rubbernecking. Please, have a seat." Azul said. Yuuna and Jack sat on a sofa as Azul sat on the sofa in front of them. Azul then crossed his legs over the other, looking elegant. "So, what would you like to discuss with me?"
"I'd like you to take those anemones off everybody's heads" Yuuna pleaded.
Azul was stunned for a bit before bursting out in laughter. "Ha ha ha! Goodness me. That's quite the demand to make right out the gate. You would ask me to release 225 students from their contracts with me"
Jack and Yuuna's jaws dropped. "You bamboozled that many people?! That's nuts!" Jack exclaimed.
"Yes, well, Jade and Floyd did a bit of proactive market outreach this year. Thanks to that, I'd had no shortage of clients ready to strike up deals with me" Azul replied. "Now, Yuuna- as for your request to free these students...I am not forcing them to labor under any undue duress" he said. "They made a contract with me, and they willingly consented to the terms laid out in writing. Contracts are ironclad agreements not subjected to intervention from outside parties on any emotional basis. "Poor, unfortunate souls" they are not. To put it more bluntly: your protestations will avail you nothing, no matter how much you might kick and scream"

"I'm told you're willing to grant any wish as part of a deal...." Yuuna went silent for a bit, deep in thought, before she looked at Azul with new-founded determination. "Fine. Let's make a deal"
"Wait, what?!" Jack looked at Yuuna as if she was crazy. Well, in this situation, she kinda was. "Have you lost it?!" he asked.
"oho. You want to make a deal with me?" Azul asked, looking at Yuuna in amusement. "Now there's an interesting proposal" he grinned.
Floyd, who was also in the room laughed. "Aha ha! Little shrimpy's got some guts!"
"hm. Now, while your interest is duly noted..." Azul trailed off for a bit. "There's a wee bit of a snag. You see, Yuuna, your magic is only capable to use on those who are chosen, which, I cannot use even if you give me your magic. You're not gifted with a beautiful angel-like siren voice like Y/n, nor are you heir to any kingdom/empire. You're an utterly run-of-the-mill light magic human in every way possible. Considering the big ask you're making of me, I would need considerable collateral" Azul's words literally like stabbed Yuuna.
'Jeez...he is just as brutal and blunt as Y/n!' imaginary blood leaked out of Yuuna's mouth from Azul's brutal words.
"Such as?" Jack asked, having Yuuna snap back to reality.
"Hm, I don't know..." Azul took a deep breath. "Just off the top of my head, how about usage rights for Amaryllis dorm, which is presently under Y/n's supervision...and, Y/n herself" Azul grinned.
'Who is she? An object?' Yuuna had a scrunched-up face from that.
"Hey...Was that your whole angle from the-" Jack said before being interrupted by the sound of the door slamming open.
"SIGN ME UP FOR THAT!" a foamy creature shouted. It was Grim.
"Grim, how long have you been there?" Yuuna asked, after composing herself since Grim bursting through the door almost caused her to have a heart attack.
"I can't TAKE it anymore! My fur ain't for washin' dishes!" Grim shivered in Yuuna's arms when he jumped into her arms.
"Ducking out of work to eavesdrop on others is hardly employee-of-the-mouth behavior, Grim." Jade crossed his arms as he turned to his brother. "Floyd, eject him"
"Can do!" Floyd happily agreed as he reached about to grab Grim.
"Now, now. Let's not be hasty, gentlemen. Yuuna, the lone student of your dorm has weighed in on the matter. What say you? Will you put Amaryllis dorm and Y/n as collateral and make a contract with me?" Azul smirked. His mind was influenced by the blossom of envy about what he can do with Y/n. What would he do once he gets his hands on her, will he make Y/n his and his alone? Unwilling to share with others?
"Pleeeease, Yuuna, I'm beggin' here..." Grim, who seemed to not hear about Y/n being part of the deal, begged Yuuna to accept.
"Yuuna, don't do it! You know he's just gonna name some unreasonable terms you could never possibly meet! Plus, what would Y/n think about all this?" Jack exclaimed, trying to stop Yuuna from making a deal with a yandere.
Yuuna would be conflicted, but she was confident that she will do her end of the deal, whatever it may be. "Let's hear the contract terms"
Azul grinned from ear to ear. "That's the sporting attitude I like to see"
"hey!" Jack snapped. "Are you serious?!"
"Here's the deal..."
