The Demon King's Alter Life Ritual

Gossip

"Don't worry! The question isn't too difficult, it's just the names of family members in Japanese." Akizawa Sensei immediately pointed to one of his students. "You guys must really like anime a lot, right? So, I'm sure you can work on it."

"Huuu~~~! Sensei likes false hope!" cried the whole class to Akizawa Sensei.

However, Akizawa Sensei still held a daily test this time. This will enter the daily value for the next semester.

Shin was immediately rewarded with deadly stares from all of his friends. The address for being bullied again is the model student.

The school bell had already rung from a few tens of minutes ago. All the students had left the school, only a few teachers remained. Of course there are also Vin and Gil among everyone who lives.

That's right, Vin and Gil are carrying out the punishment from Mr. Hedric to clean the entire school corridor.

Gil brings two buckets of water for Vin to mop. Gil chose the sweep section. He didn't even do that sincerely. So, Gil swept only one line of tiles. Luckily Vin didn't know that, Gilang thought.

Gil poses holding a broom, but he sweeps his broom on the floor at random. Meanwhile, far behind him, Vin is mopping seriously.

"Uh yeah, Vin. You've heard the gossip, haven't you?"

Vin stopped mopping for a moment, he turned to Gil.

"Gil, you joined the 'backbiting club' while I wasn't around, huh? Why are you gossiping like Mario, huh?"

"This isn't gossip about teachers' relationships or our friends' love stories, Vin." Gil said with a very serious face. He propped his chin on the base of the broom handle.

Vin let out a shaky breath. He was actually curious, but he also wanted to finish this sentence as soon as possible. Did Vin mop the middle corridor that he usually just walked through, huh? To be fast too.

Vin nodded.

"Okay, let's get this over with and tell the gossip you know, Gil," Vin finally decided.

Gil raised his thumb. After that, he swept with origin back. After all, Vin will also mop up later.

Vin ends up working twice as hard as Gil. Gil swept it incorrectly, the dust was still everywhere. Vin had to wring the mop several times because he had only used it once and it had turned black with dust.

"Gil!! Actually what did you sweep earlier, huh?! Why is there still so much dust?!" Vin shouted loudly. He wanted to hit his best friend's head with the butt of the mop.

"Ahahaha, I'm sorry, Vin! That part was too late."

"Why is the whole floor going overboard, huh?! So what did he say worrying about your best friend, huh? I thought you were really worried about me since my injury hasn't healed yet. In fact you made me carry out this punishment alone, Gil!"

Gil put his arm around Vin's shoulder.

"Ahahaha, sorry, friend! I'm being lazy this time. Don't worry! I'll treat you to a meal later, come home from here."

"Chicken noodles, meatballs, seblak, and dumplings, promise!" Vin chimed in. He raised his pinky finger. He is indeed the weakest when he is lured by food.

Gil intertwined his little finger with Vin's little finger, the little finger promised.

"Yes, promise! Whatever you ask for, My Friend!"

Joon lowered Gil's hand from his shoulder.

"Okay, now go get some more water! It's slowly turning black!" Vin's orders were immediately nodded by Gil.

"Ready, Boss!"

A few tens of minutes later, the entire corridor was gleaming clean. The clock shows half past 5 in the afternoon. It's really great that Vin, he has the talent to be a cleaning service like him. But strangely, he never cleans at home. Especially cleaning the room. Ah, maybe at school it's just for imaging.

Vin and Gil sat back to back on the floor. He stared proudly at the clean, shining floor.

"Aaah, it's finally over. This back hurts! It feels like it's going to crack." Gil complained while gently massaging his back.

"What's going to crack, Gil?! You're just lifting a bucket. I'm the one mopping, Damn it!" This is Vin's voice. He was indeed the one who worked the hardest to clean all these corridors earlier.

Gil scratched the back of his neck and smiled guiltily.

"Ehehehe, this is all for the sake of chicken noodles and meatballs as you requested earlier, Vin."

Vin just pursed his lips, annoyed. It seems that even if he has a conglomerate biological father, his life will never change. It's still like this. Surprised too Vin. What are all the wealth of his parents used for, huh?

Itsuki Akizawa didn't give Vin extra pocket money, with the excuse that Vin didn't snack outside. If it gets poisoned, Itsuki himself will be in trouble.

If Jay and Kensuke do not need to be asked again. They've been stingy from there. Kensuke prefers to buy skincare for him. Meanwhile, Jay prefers to fulfill her collection of action figures, rather than fulfilling Vin's nutritional intake. He don't know, they are all cruel to Vin.

"Oh yes, Gil. What did you want to talk about, huh?" Instead of thinking about the cruelty of his parents, Vin prefers to hear gossip from his best friend.

"Ah, the gossip earlier, huh? So you really haven't heard the gossip, Vin?"

Vin shook his head. He is now sitting against the wall, next to Gil.

"Not yet, what's the gossip about, um?"

Gil brought his face closer to Vin's ear.

"This school is ... it's haunted you know, Vin." Gil whispered right in his friend's ear. He was just afraid if the creature he was gossiping about suddenly appeared. 'It's scary.

Vin was shocked to hear Gil's words just now. He was still listening, didn't want to comment just yet.

"It happened, yesterday the day after tomorrow. So, a senior from my basketball club wants to pick up a book that he left in class. Then suddenly he heard a strange sound from the window, Vin." Gil paused his speech. Deliberately so that his friend was curious.

"So ... so what happened, Gil?" Vin is enthusiastic. Maybe it was like what he experienced the day before yesterday.

"After my senior heard a strange sound from the window, when he looked back...."

Vin nodded and swallowed his saliva. Waiting anxiously for the continuation of his friend's story.

"Woy!!" Gil shouts excitedly making Vin jump in surprise.

"Damn it, what a surprise, woy!" Vin snapped, annoyed. He suppressed his heart which was beating fast in shock.

Gil laughed cruelly, seeing his friend surprised like earlier.

"Hahaha... you're exaggerating, you bastard!" Gil flicked Vin's forehead.

"Continue your story, Gil!"

"When my senior looked back, he saw a body crawling upside down in the classroom window. After that, he said so many people saw it. END~!" Gil ended the story which he said would surprise Vin earlier.

"Buwahaha ... that's all, Gil ?" Vin even laughed after hearing the whole story of his friend. In fact, he had been surprised by Gil.

Gil frowned at his friend's reaction.

"How come your reaction is normal, Vin? You're not afraid, are you?"

"Ahahaha, me? Afraid? Seriously, Gil? Only idiots believe that." Vin spoke arrogantly. He is now standing up. "Eh, I forgot. You're an idiot, Gil, that's why you believe that?"

"Huu, damn you, you bastard! If you meet that ghost in person, I'm sure you'll pee your pants, Vin!"

"Don't be silly! How could Vin Twining believe such a thing?!" Vin tries to dodge. In fact, he actually fainted when he saw a ghost the day before yesterday. Vin didn't want to admit it.
