Ghoul Hunter

"You're a Ghoul Hunter, right? Mr. Rū Vermillion Crimson? " Miss Ellaine AshBeauty asked me as I was making excuses for my lie.

"What?" I asked her.

She crossed her legs and looked at me with eyes staring deep inside me. She was confident that she was correct.

"How did you-?" I was stunned and looked at her in silence.

How did she know that I'm a ghoul hunter? When did I even mention that-

Suddenly, I remembered my memories of our previous conversation. It gave me hints about what she said.

The excuse and my lies, especially how she knew why I was in Lockwood's place yesterday, before she knew about it, I had them first on my mind.

My eyes opened wide in realization, then I looked at Miss AshBeauty. I calmed myself and asked her.

"You're a mind reader, aren't you, Teacher!"

She opened her eyes wide, yet calmly looked at me as if she knew I would get the answer sooner or later. But she never thought it was this early. She told me

"Pretty cognitive, aren't you? Crimson? "

I stared at her face in silence, trying to blank the state of my mind and prevent her from reading what was inside it.

She looked at me and noticed that she couldn't read them anymore. She then continues.

"It took other people days or months to know, yet minutes after we met, you figured it out."

I told her. "Keep answering what's on people's thoughts and surely you'll make people think you're an Esper!"

She shook her head left and right to disagree and told me. "No, no! I'm not an Esper "

I looked at her and said, "Mind Reading is something an Esper can do! If you're not, then what are you? "

She raised her chin whilst looking at me. She then told me, "Why not figure it out?"

I lowered my head yet kept staring at her. I also make sure I'm continuously emptying my mind. I don't want to reveal anything that's on my head anymore.

The teacher clapped both of her hands and made the wind reverberate inside the admin's room. It echoed in my brain, signaling an alert to my body.

Yet I bit my tongue so the vibrations wouldn't signal to my brain.

It's a distraction to let your mind flow and think of thoughts, yet I already knew this trick and kept my mind in a blank state.

She looked at me and she smiled while saying

"Ahaaaa.... You already know how to counter mind reading, don't you? You've known one, right? someone with a strong observation ripple? "

I kept both my mouth and mind silent whilst staring at her, deep inside her soul. She averted her eyes as she looked at my determined actions, knowing she wouldn't be able to get anything from me anymore, and continued.

"Since I already know the reason why you were missing yesterday, I'm just going to report it to the principal."

She dodged the topic. I asked her. "What excuse will you make for me?"

She answered. " The excuse is' running away from home '. Also, I've sent your dear Slyvyna Lockwood to pick you up and send you to your room. "

The shackles and binds that were restricting my arms and legs suddenly broke and vanished. They look like a typical rope, yet they're not a physical manifestation.

"Is it magic?" I asked her.

"Go back to your room for today, and I'll talk to you later—what are you doing?"

I took my left arm and punched the teacher in her face, yet she managed to see the attack and took the punch with her right hand. Stopping it without a hinch

I raised my right knee and attacked the teacher, yet she observed the attack and blocked it again with her left hand.

Since it was a knee, I then kicked her stomach and pushed her away from the chair. I then told her

"You can't read them right? my attacks? "

"Yet I can see and block them," she told me. She continued. "I don't mind figthing you here, Crimson, but I'm pretty sure you won't be able to defeat me. Also, I don't want to fight you as we're the same right? "

"Yeah, to think a teacher is one!"

I backed out of the fight and calmed myself. We looked at each other, and she thought about excusing my behavior. After confirming it, the teacher looked at the door and dismissed me.

I went directly to the door. As I opened it, I found Lockwood waiting for me there. I asked her. "How long have you been waiting?"

Lockwood was standing near the wall, staring at the field of grass as the sun shone on the plants. As she turned around, she noticed me and went towards me.

She asked. "Oh, Crimson, so you're awake?"

I put my arms around Lockwood and embraced her. This surprised her with a reddish blush, and I pulled her over to my body.

I covered her eyes with my hands as I saw her wisteria pupils. It's the apparition eye.

She was about to ask me why I hugged her, yet I touched her lips and said

"Shhhhhhh, don't say anything!"

This immediately silenced her and we walked around. I turned my back and looked at Miss Ellaine AshBeauty smiling towards me.

After getting a good distance away from her, I freed Lockwood from my hug and told her.

"Try not to approach Miss AshBeauty, Lockwood!" After saying that, she asked me "Why?"

I told her. "She's a Ghoul Hunter!"

I looked behind me again and visualized the surroundings.

It seems like I'm not the only Ghoul Hunter in this school.

****************************************************************

Lockwood and I went together to the classroom. I opened the door with my feet and shook the inside with a loud bang.

My classmates were startled and immediately looked at the person who had kicked the door. As they saw me, they asked.

"You're alive?"

I asked them, "WHO THE FCK CALLED THE TEACHER AND GAVE HER MY NAME?" They just destroyed my perfectly fine plan of restarting my life.

A girl averted her eyes after asking the question; it looked like it was her. I don't know who she is, but she looks like a nerdy bltch.

I excuse her for now and sit at my desk. Lockwood then asked me

"What was that earlier?"

I told her. "I'll talk about it later."

She was still confused, yet she agreed. "O-okay."

I leaned back in my armchair, wondering what time it was. I looked at the clock and saw it was already 8 a.m. One hour had really passed, huh?

Suddenly, my phone rang, vibrating through my pants. It was here? I think I remembered charging it. Did I lose some of my memories?

However, I was immediately stunned as I heard the ringtone. The sweat goes up as it was not an alarm tone, it was a call tone.

It has the ringtone of the Pillar Man theme that goes, "AYAYAYAYAAAAAAA" in an Egyptian theme.

It scared me as it rang, since I had set this tone for that one person who I didn't want to call right now. It was supposed to be a meme since she was in Egypt last year, but screw that!

I slowly looked at my phone and saw that the person calling me was... (Big Tiddy Onee-chan)

My big sister

I trembled in fear, shaking all over my body.

If I don't answer this today, it will make up for a total of 81 missed calls. I'm already dead with 80 missed calls, and if you add one, she'll chase me in hell and kill me again!

I'm extremely afraid to answer her, yet I'm more afraid of not answering her.

My thumb trembled in fear as it approached the call button. I slowly put the phone on my ear and answered her.

After answering the call, I closed my eyes, hoping that I wouldn't get shouted at. Yet a moment of silence passed as the call ran but no one answered.

I was confused. What's going on? Lockwood looked at me as she tried to listen to who was on the call. Nge Chismosa!

After a while, a voice answered. She said, "So you've finally picked it, huh?" Then the call ended.

My sweat ran down all over my body. My temperature dropped massively. I was shaken to my spine and said,

"I don't think I will live for tomorrow!"

Lockwood looked at me confused as she didn't know what was going on. So, without further delay,

I choked myself immediately. "Hrrrk! Hrrrrkkkk! Hrrrrk!"

*************************************

The sky illuminates the colour orange, a sign that it's time for the sun to set down. It's 4:30 in the afternoon, and I'm still shaking in fear.

Lockwood held my hands to warm them up and repeatedly said, "It will be fine, Crimson, it will be fine. Believe in yourself!"

"I'll believe I will die."

"Be optimistic."

"I believe I'll die without pain."

"Not that type of optimism!"

Suddenly, a figure blocked our way, crossing her hands and standing wide. It was our adviser, Miss Ellaine AshBeauty. She's wearing a brown sweater right now rather than her tuxedo from earlier.

After Lockwood spotted her, she immediately remembered my warnings and hid behind me whilst holding my hands.

The teacher pointed her hands towards me and said,

"AIN'T THAT EXPLICIT CRIMSON! GOING HOME WITH YOUR GIRLFRIEND, YOU REALLY RAILED HER DIDN'T YOU?"

Lockwood immediately took away my hands after the teacher pointed out that we were handholding and blushed in embarrassment.

My consciousness came back together after I spotted Miss AshBeauty. Lockwood asked.

"What did she mean that you railed me?"

I looked at Miss AshBeauty and asked her. "What do you want?"

She looked at me and tilted her head. "I came because I saw you holding hands with the girl! Don't tell me you're planning to run away from home, aren't you? "

I shook my head in disagreement. "Even though I know I will die for now, I don't have a plan to go to their house."

She looked at Lockwood and stared at her. This immediately scared Lockwood, and she hid behind my back. The teacher asked.

"Why are you afraid of me, Miss. Lockwood? Did something happen? "

Lockwood then said. "I'm sorry, Miss AshBeauty " and immediately ran away after I pinched her back.

I told her earlier that when I pinched her back, it meant she was going to flee. Lockwood runs as far away as she can, that in just a few seconds, she's already far away.

The teacher was stunned as she looked at Lockwood running away from her. This gave me a chance since she was distracted and ran away too.

"HAHAHA Bltch!"

She immediately noticed that I was running away at full speed. I was already near the gate, but after seeing me, she jumped towards me and tackled me to the ground.

The F@ck? How fast is this bltch?

"Whom are you calling btch, huh?"

I asked her, "What do you want? She's gone? I won't run away anymore! AHHHHH! "

She pulled my hand from my back and answered, "It won't change the fact that you might not go back home, so I'll be coming with you!"

"F@CK YOU NOOOOOOOOO!"I shouted and wiggled like a worm. The teacher got annoyed and stretched my arm off my shoulders and asked.

"Bring me along or lose an arm?" The stretch dislocated my shoulders.

"AHHHHHHHHH! WHAT DID MY ARM DO TO YOU?"

She asked again. "Bring me or"

"AHHH OKAY! OKAY! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! "

"Good!!!!!"

And thus, I Brought a teacher home.
