After all has ended and 10 PM hit, we all went to our dorms and relaxed for the night. I flopped on my and Saito's bed then looked at her and noticed her staring at me, with noticable jealousy in her eyes. I rolled over on my side then poked her cheek.
"What's wrong Sai?" I asked and caressed her cheek.
She closed her eyes and sighed. "Yae Kanbayashi is what's wrong. I've never seen you fall for someone so quickly...I guess it made me feel a little jealous. I mean...the way you looked at her. Her and her body...and her eye and breasts. You're obviously attracted to her."
"Come on...I'm attracted to you as well. You're smart, beautiful, you have a nice set of breasts that I also like. You may be an android but I definitely am attracted to you." I smiled and stroked her hair.
"Really..? You aren't just saying that just to be saying it?" Saito asked?
I got closer and kissed her forehead. "I'm telling the truth...I wouldn't lie to you at all." I reassured her and noticed her blushing.
She nodded and closed her eyes. "Entering resting mode."
I smiled and pulled the covers over our bodies and went to sleep a bit after she had fallen asleep.
The next morning arrived and I was getting ready in the bathroom then got a call on my phone. I looked at it then noticed it was an unknown number. I pressed accept call and put it on speaker.
"Who is it?" I asked as I put on my makeup.
"Glad this wasn't a fake number..~" Yae giggled.
I blushed slightly and closed my eyes. "Who gave you my number?"
"It's on your ValkyMe Page." Yae answered.
"What do you need? I'm going out for an errand." I said as I put on my eyeliner. "Working at a Cafe today since a worker got sick."
"You got that errand too?~ I am partnered with you today by the request of Yusa. It's just us." Yae giggled softly.
"Seems like you are happy about it." I said then finished getting ready.
"I am..~ I'll be able to know more about you other than the normal facts." Yae said.
"I just got done getting ready. I'll meet you at the train station." I looked at my phone.
"Okay. See you soon~" Yae said in a flirtatious voice.
"Y-Yeah." I replied.
We ended the call then I looked in the mirror. It was just me and Yae together today working at a cafe in Fujitori. I blushed a bit, knowing it was true that I was falling for Yae quickly.
I walked out of the dorm room and looked at my phone and noticed the group chat and smiled.
Yumeji: This errand is bull. I ain't got time for this. I hate carnivals.
Misao: Woman shut the hell up with that. At least you ain't gotta help out in a construction site. Like the Demon Order nor Judgement are appearing in these little foolish locations.
Kikyo: You two complain too much sometimes.
I let out a chuckle then hurried over to the train station to meet up with Yae. I noticed I was the first to show up then heard someone call my name. I looked to my left and noticed Yae walking up. She wore a black lolita dress with white accents, wore brown stockings, and her signature lace gloves. Her appearance was very deadly, yet so elegant...
"Today I'll be your assistant and help you with whatever you need..~ I have experience in cafe work so I'll help you down the line." Yae smiled and noticing me blushing.
"R-Right." I nodded.
The train came and the doors opened. We walked into the train then sat down next to each other. The doors closed then the train began moving.
"So...about yourself. What are your favorite pastimes? Anything you like to do while passing the time?" Yae asked, looking at me.
"Well me and my friends go to the arcade often after classes are over and just hang out there to pass the time or we go to our St. Fraskia Diner to hang out, or I'm helping Saito with her daily system checks." I answered and looked at her.
"I see." Yae nodded. "I'm normally reading books or just standing beside Yonaka awaiting my instructions."
"That sounds...incredibly boring. Standing next to her and just waiting isn't a pastime." I chuckled.
"Then what do you suggest I do?" Yae asked. "This is all I have ever known."
"How long is this errand for..?" I asked and checked my Errand Tasks on my ValkyMe Page. "Four hours. Alright. After our errand is done, we are going to do something fun like going to the mall or...the museum or something!"
Yae smiled and nodded. "I'd be delighted to do an activity with you."
I blushed slightly then nodded. "Then it's settled."
She nodded and looked out the window.
It felt strange not having a superior with us, but Yae was an A Rank Valkyria...stronger than Liao Ru somehow, but since she's so strong they didn't see the need for a superior to come with us.
The train stopped at our destination and we got up to get out of the train. We walked down the sidewalk together, continuing our small talk then made it to the cafe. It was just an ordinary cafe. We walked in and the owner gave us aprons, telling us the worker should show up within four hours and that he'll pay us for doing this. We nodded and he smiled then hurried off.
The first hour of work was me getting the hang of this cafe job and how to work the registers as well as knowing what to say after the customer says thank you. She also taught me the difference between lattes and coffee, teaching me how to make the two. It wasn't difficult to memorize these things, but there was a lot to memorize.
The second and third hour was just was working. Nothing too impactful happened. The day was slow, but we still got a surprising moderate amount of customers in and out of the cafe.
The final hour came and we finished our work shift. The worker finally arrived and she apologized for her tardiness explaining her mother had been hospitalized by a wild man and that her mother didn't make it out alive.
Yae and I looked at each other then at her. I stepped forward.
"What was the man like?" I asked.
"He had long white hair...light blue eyes...uhm..he had a huge marking on his chest...he kept yelling out Yusa. I don't even know a Yusa. My mother's name was Reiko!" The woman said angrily.
"Sound like Seihachi.." Yae said then looked at me. "He's in the area...well was four hours ago but he could still be here."
"Seihachi. My father's name. We have to find him and stop him from hurting anyone else!" I said then took off my apron then tossed it on a chair and rushed out the door.
"Hisumi hold on you can't go after him!" Yae called out then took off her apron then placed it on a chair and ran after me.
I heard a yell and ran in that direction. Yae grunted as she jumped to the top of a building then ran after me while jumping from rooftop to rooftop. She snapped her fingers and time slowed down. She jumped off the roof and landed in front of me then grabbed my shoulders and time went back to normal speed. I stopped and looked at her.
"You can't pursue him...there is no telling what he's going to do not to mention he's a part of True Judgement even though he's so wild because he's now...a Fell Beast." Yae said.
I tilted my head and noticed a man walking towards us. "Watch out!" I pulled Yae behind me then summoned my sword and blocked a lightning beam.
The man had long white hair, light blue eyes, and horns on each side of his head. He wore a black jacket and pants with red accents and the jacket was opened exposing the Judgement Marking on his chest that went all the way down to his stomach. His right arm was a demonic looking arm carrying a great sword that had black lightning cracking all around it.
I looked at him and took a step back. "D-Dad.."
"Yusa...Yusa!" He yelled and dashed towards me.
Yae rushed in front of me then summoned her double sided scythe and blocked Seihachi's attack then grunted lightly. "He's stronger than I expected...Hisumi, you need to run..! He's obviously after you since you are the daughter of Yusa..!"
"As if..." I said then glared and took a deep breath then exhaled. "I already know the truth...even if it hurts. He isn't my father!"
I dashed into the battle and Seihachi pushed Yae away then bellowed and dashed to me. I vanished and appeared above him then flew down and stabbed his back, but my blade broke upon contact. I looked surprised and he turned around then hit me with his arm, sending me crashing into a building. I groaned loudly then he appeared in front of me and punched my stomach. I couldn't scream. I just threw up blood and fell to my knees.
"Hisumi!" Yae stood up and stopped, feeling Fell Energy.
I stood up slowly and dark energy surged powerfully around me. I yelled and dashed towards him then swiped my arm at him, but he caught it and tossed me in the air then blasted me away. I crashed through the wall of the building then my energy disappeared almost immediately.
I grunted as I slowly got up. "I'm...not done...ye-" I coughed up blood and my hair covered my hair.
Yae hurried over to me and black wings wrapped over us then we vanished before Seihachi could get to us. We landed inside Andromeda and Yonaka looked at us. Yae sat me down in a seat and injected me with a syringe with healing liquids. My wounds and other injuries began to heal immediately.
"How unlucky you two ran into Seihachi like this. This further proves that neither of you are ready for him nor True Judgement. He is the most dangerous by far because of his ability to be very resistant to piercing attacks. It will break your weapon almost instantly. Plus he has 100% Resistance to all elements and virtually no weaknesses all around. I sent his information to you, Yae." Yonaka said.
Yae summoned her phone from a black feather and looked at her ValkyMessages to see the information sent to her.
Name: Seihachi Ishida
Age: 37
Sex: Male
Type: Balance
Combat Level: 6
Power Level: 4,129
Rank: SS
Core Strength: High Physical Damage, High Damage Resistance, Quick Regeneration, Massive AOE Damage, Mastery of Lightning Fire and Ice

"He's this strong with a Godslayer Blade..." Yae said with a serious face.
"Like I said, it was unlucky for you two to run into him so early. You're only an A Rank with a Combat Level of 3 and Hisumi is only a B Rank with a Combat Level of 2. You are very underdeveloped in combat despite being second command. There are things you have yet to learn, but I know St. Fraskia will teach you these things." Yonaka said.
"I understand." Yae bowed.
