Phone: Hello there, general Kenobi

...

Narrator's POV

Hearing her name, the dragon began to wake up little by little

As soon as she woke up, the first thing she saw was Y/n looking at her with a smile

Seeing who had woken her up, Benares quickly stood up and then her body was enveloped in a white light, leaving only her silhouette visible

Little by little, the silhouette of Benares was changing, it was shrinking and taking on a human form

After a few seconds, the light disappeared, revealing the new form of Benares

Bella: My king!

Y/n: W-Woah!

Suddenly, Bella lunged at Y/n and gave him a big hug, causing them both to fall to the ground since Y/n wasn't expecting it

Y/n: Ngh...

A bit pained, Y/n looked down, noticing Bella on top of him giving him a big hug

This made him blush a bit but he still returned the hug with a smile

Bella: Nice to see you again!

Y/n: C-Come on, it's only been a week since my last visit (Why is she always like this when we come here...?)

Sirin: (I would also like to know, she has never behaved like this with me)

They both held each other for several seconds, causing Y/n to get a little uncomfortable

Y/n: U-Um, Bella, could you let me go?

Bella: O-Oh!

Embarrassed, Bella pulled away and stood up, helping Y/n to do the same

Bella: E-Excuse me, my king. I got carried away...

Due to the sudden change in Bella's attitude, Y/n gave a small laugh before patting Bella's head with a smile

Y/n: Don't worry. I'm not upset or anything

Because Y/n was petting her, Bella blushed and looked down, causing Y/n to let out another laugh

Y/n: Anyway, now that we're here, what do you want to do this time?

At the question, Bella looked up

Bella: First of all, how is my queen?

Suddenly, Y/n's left eye turned yellow, both being the same color now

Sirin: Hmp, for a moment I thought you wouldn't ask

Seeing that she was now talking to Sirin, Bella quickly knelt down and lowered her head

Bella: Excuse me, my queen! I didn't mean to push you aside

Sirin: *Sighs* It doesn't matter, and answering your question, I've been fine. Thanks for asking

Bella: *smiles* I'm glad to hear that

Suddenly, Y/n's left eye was blue again, both eyes having different colors again

Y/n: Now, what do you want us to do this time?

Seeing that she was talking to Y/n again, Bella stood up and put her hand on her chin, thinking

Bella: Hmm... how about you tell me how your week went?

Y/n: You sure? Nothing really important happened, well, if we put aside what happened a few hours ago

Belle: what happened?

Y/n: Well...

...

Bella: I see... Thank goodness you didn't get hurt, my king

Y/n: Mmm. It was a complete miracle that the spacequake didn't show up all over our faces

Right now, both of them were sitting on a rock talking about going out to look for Shiori during the spacequake alarm

Sirin: (It's not like anything would have happened if it hit us either anyway. While Herrscher's cores remain intact, you could have regenerated)

Bella: Although I must admit that it bothers me a little that your sister didn't take the trouble to let you know that she was leaving in the middle of the spacequake...

Y/n: It bothers me a bit too but I can't blame her, I probably would have done the same if I had been in her place

Bella: Knowing you, my king, you surely would have

Y/n: By the way, Bella...

Bella: Is something wrong, my king?

Suddenly, Y/n looked at Bella with a angry face, causing her to start sweating a little

Y/n: What did I tell you about calling me "my king"?

Bella: T-That I shouldn't do it...

Due to Y/n's stare, Bella couldn't help but stutter a bit, so Y/n changed his gaze to a more friendly one

Y/n: In that case stop doing it and tell me Y/n. I'm not Sirin. You don't have to show me respect

Bella: Understood, my kin- Y-Y/n-sama...

Y/n: *sighs* Well, it's a start

After this, both were silent for a few seconds until Bella spoke

Bella: Um... Y/n-sama?

Y/n: Yes? Something wrong?

Bella: I was curious, how has your work been?

Y/n: Well, same as always. Boring

Y/n: And the truth is that I prefer it to stay that way

Belle: Seriously? Why?

Y/n: Because otherwise that would mean something bad happened

Bella: I guess you're right... By the way, what's-

Before Bella could finish her question, Y/n's phone started ringing, interrupting her

Curious, Y/n pulled out his phone and looked at who was calling him, causing him to sigh

Y/n: Speaking of the devil *Answer* Hello?

???: Where the hell are you?!

Due to the sudden yell, Y/n moved the phone away a bit then brought it back up to his ear

Y/n: No need to break my eardrum

???: And what am I supposed to do?! I just got here and find out you haven't finished the paperwork!

Hearing this, Y/n started sweating

Y/n: (Shit, I forgot!) W-Well, about that, something important came up so I couldn't go. Sorry...

???: *Sighs* Just come and finish, will you? The vast majority of papers have to be delivered tomorrow

Y/n: Yes yes, I'll be right there *Whispering* Oompa Loompa...

???: I heard that! *Sighs* Anyway, go to the extraction point. We'll pick you up there

Saying the latter, ??? hung up the call, causing Y/n to let out a sigh

Y/n: I'm sorry Bella, but work calls. I have to go

Hearing this, Bella lowered her head a little, sad

Bella: I-I see...

Seeing Bella's reaction, Y/n sighed and placed his hand on Bella's head, causing her to look at him

Bella: Y/n-sama...?

Y/n: Don't be sad. It's not like it's going to be the last time we see each other

Bella: I know, but you won't visit me again until next week...

Y/n: Hmm... How about this? Next weekend I'll stay with you all day. Is that alright?

Bella: A-Are you serious?

Y/n: Of course. It's not like I have anything to do anyway

Bella: Thank you very much!

Suddenly, Bella hugged Y/n again, only this time they didn't fall to the ground

It took her a few seconds to realize what she had done, and when she did, Bella pulled herself away from Y/n with a blush on her face, causing him to let out a little laugh

Y/n: Well, it's time for me to go. I don't want to anger my gremlin-like boss anymore

Bella: If she causes you trouble, just tell me. I'll make sure that she speak to you with the respect that you deserve

Y/n: *smiles* No need but thanks

As he waved goodbye with his hand, Y/n snapped the fingers of his other hand, creating a portal behind him

Without saying anything else, Y/n walked through the portal and closed it

...

After exiting the portal, Y/n appeared in an alley

Y/n: (Okay, time to go to the extraction point)

Wasting no time, Y/n got out of the alley and started running to the place where they would pick him up

Sirin: (I still don't understand why we don't just go there with a portal)

Y/n: (...Are you stupid or...?)

Sirin: (Hey!)

Y/n: (We're not going with a portal because they would know I'm a Herrscher. That's the least I want right now)

Sirin: (But the old man already knows that you are one. What's wrong with others finding out?)

Y/n: (That's different. He knows because he found us out. Besides, the only reason he didn't kill us is because we helped him with his problem)

Sirin: (I guess you're right...)

Y/n: (Now that I think about it, I better tell Shiori that I won't be home tonight)

Pausing for a moment, Y/n took out his phone and called Shiori

Several seconds passed but she didn't answer. He tried again several times but the result was the same

Y/n: -_-" (I'm starting to think she's ignoring me on purpose)

Letting out a sigh, Y/n texted Shiori, put his phone away and ran back to the place where they were going to pick him up

...

After running for several seconds, Y/n reached the meeting place, which was another alley just like the one from before

After making sure no one was there, Y/n reached into his pocket and pulled out a communicator which he put on his ear and pressed a button

Y/n: I'm here

With just saying that, a blinding light covered him

When the light disappeared, Y/n was now in another place. One more... "futuristic"

Without saying anything, Y/n began to walk towards an elevator in front of him and entered on it, then pressed one of the buttons

Quickly, the elevator began to ascend towards its destination

While he was going up, Y/n mentally prepared himself for what he might find

Y/n: (I just hope there isn't too much paperwork. Last time I barely got any sleep)

It took a few seconds but the elevator finally stopped and immediately open its doors at the same time that a robotic voice was heard

Speaker: Captain on bridge!

Letting out a sigh, Y/n stepped out of the elevator. But as soon as he stepped his foot out, a chain wrapped around it

Without giving him time to react, the chain pulled him up, leaving him several meters off the ground, upside down

???: Look who finally appears

Looking down, or up considering that he is upside down, Y/n could see who had chained him

Y/n: Nice to see you too, Theresa

Theresa: I wish I could say the same, Captain

After this "nice" welcome, both remained silent waiting for the other to speak, Y/n being the first to do so

Y/n: Umm... Could you put me down? Don't forget that I have to finish the paperwork

Theresa stared at him in silence for a few seconds until she sighed and released the chain

Because of this, Y/n fell head first to the ground

Y/n: Ugh!

Somewhat pained, Y/n started to get up while rubbing his head

Theresa: Well? What is your excuse for being late this time?

Y/n: I would tell you but it would take a while. I better do it after I finish the paperwork

Theresa: Whatever you want. It's in your office. You have to finish it before midnight

Upon hearing this, Y/n stood up and gave a military salute

Y/n: Understood, ma'am!

Theresa: And don't call me ma'am! *sighs* Just go away

Nodding, Y/n turned around and started walking in the direction of his office

Sirin: (What's wrong with her? She gets upset if you call her a little girl and if you call her ma'am)

Y/n: (If you, being a woman, don't understand her, me neither)

Sirin: (Sometimes I think she just doesn't like you)

Y/n: (I think so too. Well, not that I can blame her either. I forgot to do the paperwork several times already)

Sirin: (But you still finish it on time, it's not a big deal)

Sighing, Y/n continued on his way without saying anything else

...

Y/n: Son of a-

As soon as he got to his office, he saw the mountain of papers that was on his desk, causing him to let out a sigh

Y/n: I'm starting to doubt that I'll have time to finish this before midnight...

Sirin: (I think the best Is to stop complaining and start at once)

Y/n: (You're right. At least I'll have you to keep me company)

Sirin: (Don't count on me, I'm going to sleep)

Y/n: (Fuc-)

Sighing, Y/n sat down at his desk and picked up the paper that was on top of the pile of papers

...

Y/n: *yawn* Done!

After working for hours, Y/n finally finished the paperwork, only 1 hour before midnight

Y/n: (Okay, now...) Ai-chan

Saying this name, the ship's cabbage-headed AI, Ai-chan, appeared in front of him with a smile

Ai-chan: Bossu, how are you doing?

Y/n: I could be better. Could you let Theresa know that I'm done with the paperwork?

Ai-chan: Right away!

With her usual cheerful attitude, Ai-chan texted Theresa before turning to Y/n

Ai-chan: She says that you can go home now if you want, she will come to get the papers herself

Y/n: *nods* I'll do that, thanks

Ai-chan: Anytime, Bossu!

Without saying anything else, Ai-chan disappeared, leaving Y/n alone

Y/n: Or at least that's what I would do if I had the energy to go home

Giving another yawn, Y/n rested his head on his desk while using his arms as a pillow

Shortly after being like this, Y/n fell asleep

Suddenly, the door of his office was opened by Theresa, who entered while talking loudly

Theresa: Okay, now, where are the- huh?

As soon as she looked in front of her, Theresa noticed Y/n asleep at his desk, causing her to let out a sigh

Careful not to wake him, Theresa began to slowly walk over to Y/n's desk

When she was close enough, Theresa saw that he was indeed asleep, causing her to let out another sigh

Theresa: *Whispering* And to think that you would sleep here... You are really careless, captain

Using her eyes, Theresa searched for something to give Y/n to make him more comfortable, and she found it. A cushion and a coat that he had left the day before

Wasting no time, Theresa took the cushion and put it under Y/n's head before putting his coat on top of him

After this, Theresa watched him with a smile as he slept peacefully

Theresa: (Sometimes I find it hard to believe that he's a clone of Kiana, especially because of his attitude and gender... Really, what the hell happened to make them so different...?)

Confused, Theresa kept looking at Y/n for a few seconds until she stopped and sighed

Theresa: (Well, it's not like it'll matter anyway. That doesn't change the fact that it's someone important to me and the others)

With a smile, Theresa gave Y/n one last look before taking the papers and leaving the office

Timeskip

It was already morning and Y/n was in his classroom waiting for the teacher to arrive

Y/n: (I wish there was no school today. I barely slept last night)

Sirin: (And why don't you skip classes? I mean, it's not like you're going to miss out anything important)

Y/n: (I didn't come home yesterday. If I miss school today, Shiori and Kotori could be worried)

Sirin: (Well, let them worry. 5 minutes of sleep is worth it)

Y/n: (Well, you're quite right...)

Suddenly, Tamae came along with a woman in a white coat, so everyone took their seats

Y/n: (Who will be the woman in the coat...?)

Sirin: (I don't know, but for some reason she doesn't give me good vibes...)

Tamae, seeing that everyone was in their seats, stood in front of the entire class next to the woman in the coat

Tamae: Um... I know it's only our second day of school, but starting today we'll have a support teacher

After finishing, Tamae stepped aside and let the woman with the white coat speak

Reine: My name is Murasame Reine, I teach P.E. It's nice to meet-

Before finishing her introduction, Reine fell on her side, causing almost everyone to get up from their seats, worried. All except Origami, who didn't care in the slightest, Shiori, who looked at her with a "really?" face, and Y/n with a "what the fuck?" face

...

Changing scene, it was break time. Y/n was on the roof of the school, "starving"

Y/n: (Damn. Not only didn't I get to eat breakfast, I also forgot to make my lunch)

Sirin:

Y/n: (You're not the one who didn't eat anything since yesterday at noon!)

Sighing, Y/n lay down in the shade and looked up at the sky

Y/n: (I'm going to sleep for a while. Wake me up when break is over or if someone comes)

Sirin: (As you wish)

Y/n: (Thanks)

Without saying anything else, Y/n closed his eyes to try to sleep, succeeding in just a few seconds

Seeing how he fell asleep so quickly, Sirin sighed

Sirin: (Damn, that stupid dwarf is giving him too much work, he can hardly rest... Well, it's partly his fault for leaving it to the last moment, but that doesn't change the fact that he has a lot of work)

Letting another sigh, Sirin fell silent, waiting for Y/n to wake up

To be continued...
