Once Eric received the news that Del had to go after his duty, informed of a message appearing in the air which expressed how sad Del was, Eric could breathe easier.

His biggest concern was Del. Eric just felt weird around Del and thus Eric wanted to avoid Del. Fil was also away, so Lav was Eric's proudest A student and diligently went to edit and rewrite his story, they just came out of. That now only left Nol who was whining outside the door, wronged, like an innocent puppy that was heavily wronged.

Eric was exasperated!

Nol aggrieved said how unfair it was for Eric to show obvious favouritism and go with others to their stories, spending alone time while Nol, the loyal and filial student, deserved it the most. 

Everyone but him, Nol's self-mumbles appeared and he drew circles at the door while mushrooms grew out of his head. Stop sulking, Eric wanted to scream but couldn't because this would only make it worse.

Sigh, sigh, sigh. One sigh after another came out of Eric's dry ass lips that have sighed themselves to exhaustion.

Eric couldn't take the whining any longer and bada bing bada bum opened the door to Nol, who at the sight of Eric, very aggrieved, jumped up and hugged him, mischievously closed the door behind him with his foot. Eric obviously didn't notice it as he was being suffocated by Nol.

"Teacher, wasn't I good?"

Literal headaches threatened to pop on Eric's head like firecrackers crashed underneath a giant's explosive foot works.

"Of course, you've been good," Eric patted Nol's head. The latter knelt in front of Eric, worshipping him like a Buddha statue. Fuck, don't bring religion into this!

"Then am I better than Lav?'' Nol's raven black hair rubbed against the back of Eric's hand, and this personification of walking misfortune gulped. How the fuck should he answer that?

If Eric said no, Nol would go super angry, puppy mode, if Eric said yes, Nol would flaunt it in front of Lav, Eric was sure of it!

How damn annoying was this? As annoying as a cake in one hand and shit on the other, slapped together, voila shit cake.

"Can't you both get alone?"

At this, Nol, visibly upset, pouted and with glistening eyes asked, "Is the teacher happy if we'd get along?"

"I'll be more than happy for you to rekindle your relationship," Eric could honestly not care any less but it'd be easier in this life.

"Ok, if it makes teacher happy, I will!'' Nol zoomed out faster than Eric could stop him to clear up their misunderstanding.

"Hey," Eric tried of the 400th time, "You can hear me, no? Activate skill!"

Once Nol left, Eric tried to get his skill to work but as if it was pissed about being forgotten for almost an entire arc, it sulked in a corner of 'the universe that's gonna fuck you over' and refused to acknowledged the fact, it was there to annoy and make Eric's life harder. Eric wasn't sure if should be thankful for it or not.

But the very same afternoon, Nol excitedly speeded back to Eric's room, dragging a gentle smiling Lav behind him. Eric narrowed his eyes. Wasn't Lav actually happy Nol tried to get along with him even though Nol was to 99.999999 faking it?

"Did you clear up the misunderstanding between you?"

"Misunderstanding?" both Nol and Lav asked confused and Nol instantly let go of Lav's hand which made the latter sad.

Oh, shoot, Eric forgot he used his skill to see the flashback of their blossoming later destroyed past together.

"Cough, I mean you guys get along now?"
