In the Student Council Office, school papers were on the desk and being read through by the long red-orange hair demon sitting around her desk. "The honor students, Iruma and Hayami."

Meanwhile, Lord Sullivan was the coachman leading the brand-new horse carriage to the school. "Heigh-ho! It's finally been delivered... This custom carriage to take my precious grandson and protégé to and from school. go!" He snapped the bridle for the demon horses to travel faster. "Go, go, go! Iruma-kun and Hayami-chan are on their way to school!" He cheerily laughed, gleaming with a light blush of pride and happiness.

Iruma, Hayami, and Opera were inside the carriage that was riding to school. She laid her back against the wall of the carriage with her legs on top of Iruma's lap, who did not mind it at all. He seemed to stress that he did not realize until she started moving a little. She was casually taking a nice little nap since it would be a while before they reached there. Back in his anxious thoughts, 'I'm already standing out on my way to school. I wonder how Yami-chan can be so cool about this?'

"Iruma-kun, Hayami-chan! How does the ride feel so far?" Ask Lord Sullivan.

"Oh, i-it's great! It's fantastic!" He replied then he hummed. "Hayami chan?" He called out again.

"Grandpa, she's taking a little nap right now. I don't think she heard you." He replied. "Oh...I heard." She muttered, causing him to blink and Opera nonchalantly looked at the female. "It's very lovely." Her voice wasn't so loud, but it was just enough for Sullivan to hear it.

He glanced at her and then looked down at the golden ring. 'This...Right now, it's got plenty of Grandpa's magic in it, so it'll be okay, right? Please don't let it get hungry and go crazy again.'

Outside, a flock of flying demons was in the sky singing the school song. Two of the male students were conversing with one another. "I wonder if humans taste good." He said. "What? You sill believe in humans?"

"What? They totally exist!"

Iruma turned his head to the side. 'I'm going to live out of sight. I can't stand out, no matter what!'

The door opened and Opera rolled out a red and black colour sided carpet on the ground. They stood on the side as the two stood by the doorway. They announced loudly. "Iruma-sama and Hayami-sama...has arrived!"

'I'm standing out like no one else!' All students stared at them, all attention on them as if they were of high status to be treated like royalty. This doesn't seem too off considering what they are, the achievements displayed so far, and to mention they are the grandson and protégé of the chair-demon who has incredibly high magic power and his well-known status in the Netherworld as well.

Opera gestured in the carpet's direction. "Right this way."

"Give us a break!" Iruma loudly said with anxiety building up more and more. "Why, thank you, Opera-san." She stepped down, the heels of her lace-up trimmed sneakers clacked on the steps with each step taken until they heard their names called.

"Iruma-sama! Hayami-sama! Good morning." The two cousins greeted them, running to their sides.

"Azz-kun, Ku-chan, good morning." He replied. "Sorry, we couldn't come to you today."

"Hey, good morning, you two. You are happy in the morning. What has gotten you in such a good mood?" She asked them with a raised eyebrow but a smile was still wearing on her.
