房客(糙汉)何璐程曜坤

"WHOA-UGH...!"

The corpse puppet declared and threw Zoemi on the armchair before locking the door and activating the seal by using the magic crystal embedded into a wall.

"Oh, shit – and I thought I could trust you - you want to kill me now, don't you!?"

Zoemi had to twist his body around because he landed on the armchair upside down - he made a furious expression and glared at the headmaster already reaching towards the shadows to activate a shadow spell, but then the headmaster's body just fell to the floor and the black-haired boy clearly saw the shadow of the teenage girl detaching from it.

"What the...?"

Zoemi was taken aback and he started to look around the office when suddenly...

"You!"

"!!!"

...a drawer underneath a big closet opened and a furious chocolate-skinned gray-eyed-and-haired girl in only her nightgown jumped out of it as if it was some oddly shaped birthday cake and pointed at him with fury.

"Listen here, you unnecessarily handsome boy!"

She lunged at the black-haired attendant without even a second of hesitation and called out.

"I! DO! NOT! STINK! I govern the dead bodies and my mana is that of the death attribute - but I most certainly do not share the smell with the dead!"

"!!!!"

She leaned over Zoemi who was backing into the armchair as far as it was possible in shock, not knowing where to look.

"Wh-what!?"

The black-haired boy gasped in shock doing his best to focus on the girl's face and face alone.

"That's why you brought me in here!?"

He couldn't believe what he just heard and gasped before his eyes darted down for a moment and his face became slightly pink.

"Exactly! Now smell me, you overconfident toddler!"

"!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!!"

Out of nowhere, Aspakeony grabbed Zoemi's head and pushed it between her breast.

"What the FU...!"

The black-haired boy gasped in a muffled voice while his face became brightly red.

"The hell is wrong with you!? Why aren't you wearing a bra!?"

He gasped in panic absolutely not knowing how to act in this most unusual situation...!

"It's a nightgown, you idiot, you are not supposed to wear a bra underneath it! Now stop wriggling and SMELL ME!"

The angered necromancer demanded in a domineering voice.

"N-no! It's weird! I don't want to! You're creepy!"

|Though I can't say that it feels unpleasant... It feels, almost familiar...|

Zoemi somehow managed to bite his tongue and stop himself in time to not blab out his thoughts, suddenly remembering the odd vision of the gray-haired girl, very similar to the one inf front of him holding him just like she was doing it at the moment...

"No! I don't stink! I have a very nice smell because I take a bath at least twice a day – and even if I didn't, my natural smell is very pleasant too! And you will learn it right now! Breath through your nose, you mongrel!"

Aspakeony scoffed at the black-haired boy, rejecting all pleas for release as she changed her position and pulled Zoemi into a headlock.

"ARGH...! Fine! Alright! Alright! Here! Sniff! Sniff...!"

The black-haired boy decided that the fastest option will be to follow the girl commands while overdoing it in the most disturbing way so that she would realize that whatever she is doing is most certainly inappropriate and far too forward for their first meeting – and he inhaled the air through his nose obnoxiously loud so that the clearly insane but very pretty and erotic girl would leave him alone.

"Huh...?"

Then he gasped and inhaled again, trying to not think too much about what is the softness pressing against his face...

"You know what, you are right – you actually do smell really nice."

He spoke in the most composed tone that he could muster in an attempt to hide his embarrassment...

"AHA! Serves you right!"

Aspakeony raised her fist and basked in the victory.

"?!?!?!?!?!??!"

That was a bit too much for Zoemi...

"WHAT?! How come you're not creeped out by my answer!? I trying so hard to be obnoxious! Just release me already you psycho!"

The black-haired attendant struggled – but as soon as he grabbed the gray-haired girl, he realized that although she looks slightly older than him, she was on the quite petite side and felt shockingly fragile, so he automatically stopped himself from using any strength whatsoever since he didn't want to actually hurt her – which at that point in time felt like a disturbingly easy thing to do...

"Hmm? Not picking up a fight again? What, did you feel so cozy thanks to my smell that you fell asleep?"

Aspakeony smirked triumphantly, stirring up Zoemi's embarrassment once again.

"Screw you! I did what you wanted, I admitted that you smell nice – now let me go already!"

The black-haired boy groaned in shame and demanded – which actually kind of worked, as the gray-haired girl nodded with satisfaction and released his head – only to then pushed him back onto the armchair.

"Now that we got through the main point..."

Aspakeony declared with a cheeky smile...

"Hold on - that was ACTUALLY the main point...!?"

Zoemi interrupted her, exclaiming in disbelief.

"Yes – it was – but also it showed me that you really don't want to kill me – with that out of the way let me say this - I believe that you do not have anything to do with the Ghosts of Bellcephora."

"!!!!"

Aspakeony didn't allow herself to be interrupted and she perched her butt right on Zoemi's lap, she fidgeted a bit to achieve the best position and smiled cheekily while putting her hands on Zoemi's shoulders.

"Okay - so you know that I am not dangerous... good... but, first things first. Get off of me, please."

Zoemi sighed and put his hands on the dark-skinned girl's waist as if he wanted to pick her up and...

"AH~!"

"!!!!!!!!!!"

...she let out a loud moan that caused the poor boy to instantly raise his hands up while his face was burning red from embarrassment.

"Khahaha! My, you are so innocent and cute~!"

The necromancer's shoulders shook as she giggled watching the boy's struggle and slightly shifted her position.

"...!"

Zoemi tried to push the girl off but she clung to him like a baby lemur.

"Nnnnnn!"

Aspakeony let out a cute sound of refusal and the black-haired boy again couldn't get himself to use strength against her.

"...What the hell is wrong with you...?"

He gave up and looked powerlessly at the girl smirking triumphantly once more.

"What? That's how I always sit! Humans are way more comfortable than chairs!"

She shrugged her shoulders as if she wasn't the weird one there.

"Fine... ugh... could you at least tell me your actual name miss...?"

"Aspakeony."

Zoemi asked and the gray-haired girl responded absentmindedly and shifted on Zoemi's lap again.

"Just like this Academy? That's a funny coincidence..."

"It's not a coincidence."

The black-haired boy nodded and tried to play it off cool, but the necromancer shrugged her shoulders and corrected him despite all of his efforts...

"...I knew it..."

Zoemi facepalmed and sighed deeply in resignation.
