«Say 'ahhhh,'" Valerie brought a small sandwich up to his mouth.

«Am," his usual reaction to her feeding seemed to make her day, so dazzling was her smile.

More accurately, last night had made their day. And, Emeric hoped, it would stay that way for a long time.

The sex was hot and memorable, it seemed that all of Valerie's past hurts just dissolved from existence.

When they, completely tired and satisfied, fell asleep in each other's arms, that was when their peculiar "honeymoon" began.

When they woke up, they did it again. And twice in the shower.

Even now Valerie, dressed only in his shirt and a pair of thongs, sat on his lap and gave him a full "tease". She often fidgeted with her ass on his groin and pressed his head against her impromptu cleavage.

As they say, "tamed" the dragon.

It's unbelievable how just casual sex can strengthen the already not weak bond between a guy and a girl. It had been a long time since he'd seen his queen in such a glorious mood. And he himself was over the moon with happiness, forgive Lucifer for his satanic blasphemy.

They're already late for school, so why come to class at all? They'd come right afterward, straight to the clubhouse. Emeric was sure that Akeno could handle everything.

«My star," he reached under his shirt to find the cherished bump and pinch it lightly, eliciting a seductive mooing from his queen. - Aren't you full yet...?

«Mmm," Valerie began to slowly pull down her thong. - Not yet, my King...

Emeric's life took on a whole new color.

*****

«Kya-ya-ya-ya!... - His usual passage was accompanied by shouts and whispers from most of the female students as usual. - Gremory-sama and Morgingstar-sama are so cool together...!

«Don't they look different to you...?

«Indeed, they are downright radiant!.....

«Do you think they...

«Kya-ya-ya!

«Ooh, fucking handsome! - it was the men's side of the school that did it.

They finally put out the fire that had been lurking in their natures until then a little and came to school. Right as Emeric had planned, the last lessons of the first year had already ended. Which meant they could take Ichika with them, at the same time making sure of her well-being after the 'demonization' ritual.

She was just standing with her glasses-wearing friend, with whom they were suspiciously bantering. So engrossed that they didn't notice their approach.

«Hello," he caught their attention as Valerie nodded to them.

The mood is really high, usually she just ignores the people around her, but now she even managed to greet someone! That's what life-giving sex does! We should do it again!

«Hello, President! - Ichika greeted him with such peculiar words. He'd already told her to just call him by his first name, but apparently the Japanese cockroaches couldn't allow it.

Although, if you think about it, almost everyone close to him has a nickname for him. Valerie calls him "King", Akeno, also brought up in Japanese traditions, "Emeric-sama", and now Ichika apparently decided to call him "President", because he's the head of the club she's a member of.

«Hello," said a stammering woman with glasses and two braids, stopping a few steps away from him.

«Mmm," he considered her thoughtfully.

Was she just another groupie? But Emeric got a completely different impression of this unknown person when she said something to Ichika with that ubiquitous smirk. She didn't seem shy at all, though she was completely embarrassed in his presence.

He shifted a questioning look toward his new pawn.

«This is Aika Kiryu, a classmate of mine and she... - Ichika stammered and began to blush gradually. - She has a special ability... - He couldn't make out her further embarrassed mumbling.

«It's nice to meet you," he tried to smile favorably, but achieved the diametrically opposite.

Aika stepped back even farther and tried her best not to look at him.

«Me too," she managed to say through her stuttering. - Please don't come any closer, I... - She covered her eyes with her hands in shame. - I'm afraid of getting pregnant!

And I ran away from them with my heels glistening.

Emeric and Valerie were left with only perplexed looks.

«President," Ichika looked at him with stars in her eyes. - Ichika looked at him with stars in her eyes.

«What the hell are you talking about?!

*****

Akeno was already waiting for them in the club room with her standard "dutiful wife" smile. As soon as he and Valerie met her gaze, she began her full of innuendo giggle that drove Valerie completely into the paint. She stopped maintaining close contact with him for the first time today and headed for her usual place with an independent look, but her cheeks were flushed, which gave her away.

«Hello, Akeno," he winked at his bishop.

«Hello, Emeric-sama," she walked beside him, responding with an equally flirtatious wink.

«Hello, Akeno-sempai," Ichika said a little perplexed. The whole silent exchange of half hints had passed her mind. To be more precise, the woman's intuition rang a bell, but she herself, due to her inexperience, was not able to decipher everything correctly.

«I saw you today, kohai," Akeno smiled at her. - I picked you up this morning to help you get to school.....

«Oh, right... - Embarrassed, she replied.

During the first time of rebirth of a person into a demon there are various primary signs of disease. Demons are nocturnal creatures, so during the day, especially weak demons will be uncomfortable to be in the sun. In time, such a similar will pass, just the body on a new adaptation in the "input". But it doesn't change the fact that this morning Ichika could barely get out of bed, and in class she really wanted to sleep. Such weakness was unaccustomed to the young organism, which before had hardly even been sick due to the passive presence of the Sacred Mechanism in the soul.

«It'll get better with time, especially as you grow in strength," he grinned as he watched her periodically crinkle up from her headache.

«Are we on?

«Yes," Emeric leaned back in his seat. - You haven't realized it yet, but you're in for a real shonen anime," he gave her a smile full of vague promise. - With the usual genre staples like training and villains, really," he winked at her lightly. - We'll have a higher age limit.

Ichika hid behind her cup of tea in embarrassment. The President's promises really stirred something in the soul of the already not the most modest girl.

«By the way," Emeric furrowed his brows seriously. - We've forgotten our obligatory ritual, haven't we?

Valerie groaned painfully as Akeno hid her giggle behind the sleeve of her uniform.

«Ritual? - Ichika looked at him questioningly.

«Exactly! You can think of it as a contract of sorts.....

He pointed dramatically at his watch.

«Now, without one minute six o'clock in the evening, this clock is checked every twenty-four hours with the general clock, which stands in a special laboratory, there can be no loss of time, - he looked seriously into her eyes. - Now the contract!

Ichika clutched her cup slightly nervously. She had just become a demon! What contracts? Would you at least give me a booklet?

«At exactly six o'clock the next day from your rebirth into a demon! - He loomed dramatically over the table. - If one of us invents a working method of time travel, exactly at that time, he'll somehow let you know that there is a way!

Emeric proclaimed the ridiculous statement, and the room fell into silence. Valerie rubbed the bridge of her nose irritably while Akeno indifferently poured the tea.

Only Ichika and Emeric looked around the entire club room hopefully. It seemed like they were waiting for either an old American car or a naked man in a plasma ball to appear in the room right now and demand clothes, but they never waited for anything.

«Too bad... - Ichika said annoyed.

«Indeed," Emeric summarized sadly, before Akeno walked over to him and stroked his arm encouragingly.

It's worth noting that Valerie, who had always interfered with her and Akeno's caresses before, just wasn't paying attention. Apparently Valerie's jealousy was starting to shift the focus in her mind. However, when he reached for Akeno's buttock, Valerie glared at him....

Okay, not to get too cocky.

«Hmm, okay," Emeric looked sadly around the room one last time, and turned his attention back to Ichika. - You should tell me about the ranks within Hell.

«Ranks?

«You can think of it as a caste system," Emeric clarified and continued. - As of yesterday, you are officially part of the entire structure of Hell, and your papers will be ready soon. So I need to tell you about the official ranks, the division that all demons are labeled with.

He sipped his tea while Ichika listened intently.

«Right now, you and Akeno, and technically Valerie, don't pout my queen, are demons of the lowest rank. That is, demons who are at the bottom of the political arena. That's actually not as bad as it sounds," he refuted her possible exclamations. - The vast majority of demons are in that rank. And you, as reborn demons, automatically get this rank. Normally, lower demons are practically powerless in front of higher ranked demons, but specifically for you, as my figures, I am responsible. That is, if you have any problems, immediately contact me, or defend yourself with my name. Don't answer any questions if you don't want to do so. I will handle everything.

With that last promise, he smiled personally at Ichika to cheer her up a bit. It's not every day you find out that you are practically powerless in front of other people. Especially when she was used to a democratic modern society, but Emeric's promise really cheered her up.

Somehow he wanted to believe.
