Chapter 6:

6 - Scabiosa School Part 2

Yama


At the library,

"Read us! Read us! Read us! Read us!" the mysterious womanly whisper becomes louder from the book.

"Dab! Dab! Dab!"

A great number of books move by themselves, falling uncontrollably from the bookcase.

"Dab! Dab! Dab!"

Eerily moving into the middle area and sticking with one another vertically. Creating a large block of books that shapes one gigantic size of a book. It's shoving some of the tables over the place. With a dull white area in the middle like the pages of the book, clamped between a gloomy darker book acting as the book cover. A monstrous book standing vertically in the library.

"Dab! Dab! Dab!"

Once it is complete, it splits its middle white area, wide open like a monster book opens its mouth.

"Read...us…"

"Oh, this is a good time to see our teachers in action," Sora said out loud in the class while standing in excitement at his seat in front of the class.

"Huh? How dumb can you be? It's not the teachers' work to fight malus in school because they don't have the power, it's Murakami Mayumi…" Sumiko said.

****

"Duk! Duk! Duk!"

A long blue hair woman wearing a blue jacket walking elegantly in the school corridor heads toward library 3. A black sun tattoo can be seen behind her neck.

****

"Hah? Oh...ergh...who's that again?" Sora confuse. 

Huh? Yama in his mind is surprised by Sora's act.

"She is the chevalier on duty to protect this school for this year. Don't you remember? We got to meet her in our first assembly last week."

Weird...it is unusual for him to forget someone. Huh? Why would I care? Demon in the library 3...I hope my hands are alright...erm, will the teacher cancel the class if this kind of thing happens? Guess I can take a nap.

Yama lying his head on his table glad to take advantage of the situation to satisfy his sleep desire.

****

"Krkkkk…" the library door opened wide. The woman's long white uniform under her jacket flew in the wind from the gigantic book malus.

She faced the malus without any fear, unperturbed by the terror in front of her. Slowly, she raises her right hand as a fist toward her chest with his palm facing her chest. Making a 45° degree corner between her elbow and arm.

"Judicium satus!" the woman declared.

"READ USSSSSS!!!"

A bunch of books comes flying toward her from the gigantic book mouth.

Steadily she dodges every book without any problem through the library. 

"Exorior... glacies laser..." She said serenely. A circle of snow crystal flake symbols appears on her finger. Then, a blue little laser that looks like a pencil emerges from it.

"Requiem..." she whispered before launching the laser toward the malus.

"Shius!"

 The laser beam cut through the middle of the malus. The icicle spread among its body. The gigantic demon book becomes frozen by her attacks. Unmoved.

"Krkrkkrk...Krk...Krk...Pak! Pak! PAK!"

After a moment, it gets destroyed by the shattered ice. It vanishes from existence along with the book it devours. Leaving no trace in the middle of the library 3.
