Be Careful

"What happened at the school?" Apophis asked because she was curious about what type of trouble Yuuya got into.

"Well, the thing is…." Kaori spoke about the events that happened during Yuuya's visit to the school after Yuuya signaled to her that it was ok to talk about it.

"Maybe I should go out for a walk sometimes," Apophis laughed after she heard about what happened shocking both Kaori and Francesca as they couldn't connect what was going on.

"That sounds like a good idea to me," Grayfia said in a cold voice.

'Sigh* These two….' Yuuya just shook his head and looked at Kaori who was trying to understand what Apophis and Grayfia were talking about.

"The person who did this has already paid for it along with the parties involved so moving on, Kaori what did you want to tell me?" Yuuya said in his normal tone and brought the attention to the main topic Grayfia nodded while Apophis pouted a bit.

"That is correct Yuuya-san, as for the reason I came unannounced today is because I wanted to invite Yuuya-san to study at Ousei academy," Kaori said with a smile.

'What? She is inviting me to that school. Whatever I don't think it is necessary to go to school at this point and certainly not to one of the biggest schools in the country,' Yuuya thought as he continued to eat.

Kaori was looking at Yuuya with a hopeful expression as she wanted him to agree to this.

Yuuya thought for a bit and opened his mouth to say his answer.

"I do-"

"He will join the school," But Apophis cut him off before he could finish.

'What is she up to now?' Yuuya was a bit stunned at this sudden outburst. Although Apophis acts foolishly sometimes but she doesn't cut him off when he is speaking.

'I can't let a chance like this good go to waste,' Apophis had her plans for this and she was not going to back down.

"But, this will only cause trouble for them, nor have I given the entrance exam for the school and neither are my grades qualified for a school like Ousei academy which is one of the top schools in the country. So I don't think this is the right decision." Yuuya shook his head while looking at Kaori who nodded.

"That would normally be the case, but Grades aren't the only criteria for entering Ousei academy. So it wouldn't cause any problems. From what I know Yuuya-san is perfectly qualified for attending the school." Kaori said with the same smile.

"But I haven't even given the entrance exam for the school," Yuuya said looking at her.

"Ojou-sama's father is the board chairman of the school so that won't be a problem, as long as Yuuya-sama wants to attend it will be done in a day," Francesca said as she pushed her glasses up.

'I can't let this chance go, Ojou-sama's future is on the line here.' Francesca thought as she was blowing the situation out of proportions then hers and Apophis's eyes met.

'Heh'

'Heh'

As their eyes met they smirked almost instantly and both of them pushed their glasses up.

'The hell is going on here? This isn't some thriller novel.' Yuuya was stunned at the weird atmosphere but he still kept eating the cake nonetheless.

"Even the-" Yuuya was about to say but.

"Yuuya this is important for the future, you can't miss a chance like this, as your caretaker I can't let you make a decision like this. It will undermine your future," Apophis said with a serious expression.

'This the second time, She is definitely up to something.' Yuuya eyed Apophis who didn't shy away from his eyes and still had her serious expression.

"Yes Master, If I may you should go to a good school as skipping on it would be bad, But if Master doesn't want to then…" Grayfia said with concern in her voice as she didn't want Yuuya to do something he didn't want to.

"Grayfia can also join the school and go together with Yuuya," Apophis said before Grayfia could finish as she looked at Kaori and Francesca.

"We have checked Grayfia-san grades and she is more than qualified to join the school," Francesca said with a thumbs up.

"….Cough* it would be wrong as going to school is really important for the Master's future," Grayfia said after she coughed a bit.

'It is for Master's future, there is no other motive. There is no way I want to go to school with Master. No way you hear me,' Grayfia tried to convince herself that it was for a good cause she has definitely not read too many shoujo mangas online.

'What a switch up, and what future are you talking about here?' Yuuya thought as Apophis was ready to punch the air as soon as she succeeded.

"So what is it going to be Yuuya-san?" Kaori asked again.

"Yuuya you have to go to school, listen to me this time please," Apophis said with concern in her voice.

'Seriously what are you planning? Sigh* She is making that face again.' Yuuya sighed and looked at Apophis who smiling softly with worry-filled eyes, then he looked at Grayfia who had a hopeful look on her face even though it was concealed to a degree it was still visible the same could be said for Kaori who was a bit nervous.

'Maybe I am overthinking things.' Yuuya shook his head.

"….Ok then," Yuuya nodded making a bright smile bloom on all three women.

'All according to the Keikaku,' Apophis held the urge to punch the air in excitement as it will make Yuuya suspicious.

"I knew you would listen to me," Apophis hugged Yuuya with a bright smile and for once Grayfia didn't tell her off as she was busy thinking about... dinner, Yes she was thinking about dinner indeed.

"I hope we get along at School Yuuya-san," Kaori clapped her hands together with a smile everyone in the room was smiling as they clapped.

'Why are you guys blowing this thing so out of proportion?' Yuuya just nodded as he continued to eat the short cake.

'Tasty,'

Then after an hour of talking with Apophis and Yuuya (Mostly Apophis) while completing the necessary paperwork.

"Ojou-sama it is time to go home," Francesca reminded Kaori.

"Already," Kaori was stunned as she didn't notice how the time flew when she was here.

"U-Um Yuuya-san can I ask you something?" Kaori asked a bit shyly.

"Yes, what do you want to ask?" Yuuya spoke as he waited for her to speak further and Apophis perked up her ears not wanting to miss what Kaori was about to say.

'What does she want to know? Wait is she going to…' Apophis looked at Yuuya with a side glance and Grayfia looked at Kaori as her eyes narrowed a bit.

'This is awkward, what is with this atmosphere? these two can be such a handful sometimes,' Yuuya thought as Kaori opened her mouth.

"C-can I get your autograph?" Kaori asked with a blush while holding a pen and a book in front of Yuuya.

Apophis nearly fell off the sofa and Grayfia's face went back to normal as if nothing happened.

Yuuya tilted his head not understanding why she would ask for his autograph.

"Ojou-sama is a big fan of Yuuya-sama's Book Re: Zero, so she wanted to have your autograph," Francesca explained.

"is that so?" Yuuya asked Kaori who nodded.

"I really like the novel and I can't wait for the light novel as well, so please if you will," Kaori asked again as Yuuya nodded and signed on a blank page then handed her the book back.

"Thank you very much Yuuya-san, then I'll take my leave and I hope to see you soon," Kaori said with a smile as she stood up.

"Take care on the way back," Yuuya said in his monotone voice.

"…I will," Kaori smiled brightly as she turned around.

"I'll see the guests out," Grayfia said as she accompanied them to the door.

"You already have fans, huh." Apophis teased Yuuya with a smirk.

"Yeah, color me surprised," Yuuya said plainly because he is used to these situations as he took another bite of the short cake and some whipped cream was left on his lower lip.

"You should be more careful you know," Apophis said as she placed her right hand on Yuuya's face softly caressing his face.

Yuuya just looked at her like 'What are you doing?' which caused Apophis to giggle and she wiped the cream on his lower lip with her thumb slowly feeling his soft lips.

"You had something on your lips~," Apophis said with a charming smile as she showed the whipped cream on her thumb to Yuuya and licked her thumb slowly.

'This is so sweet,' Apophis smiled as she licked her thumb because she felt the cream was sweeter for some reason.

Yuuya looked at Apophis with shock in his eyes which made Apophis smirk.

"You know Apophis..." Yuuya spoke in a soft voice as he looked away from her.
