Chapter 96: The Perfect Girlfriend
"She's here..."
A small smile appeared on Shido's face as he saw who had just transferred in.
It was the Spirit of Time, Tokisaki Kurumi. Also known as "Nightmare," she was infamous as the most dangerous Spirit. The very same one who had once tried to devour him, not in a fun way.
The classroom, which had been momentarily spellbound by her presence, finally snapped back to reality as Kurumi finished speaking. Yet, even as reason returned, the students could do little more than gasp in awe, utterly captivated by her beauty.
Kurumi didn't mind the reaction, she scanned the room until she located Shido who is looking at her with a poker face. Her eyes lit up and she revealed a seemingly sweet smile that got her a lot of howling from the boys.
Shido let out a bitter chuckle at their reaction. Sure, she looked elegant standing there, radiating charm with every movement. She was the perfect girlfriend candidate in every boys opinion. But what would they think if they knew the truth? That the girl they were fawning over was a mass murderer who had taken the lives of more than 10,000 people? He himself had struggled to believe it, until he fought her.
On the other hand Kurumi ignored everyone's reaction and watched Shido from her position.
Although she was not sure why his appearance was different from when he was in his Spirit Form. Kurumi knew that Shido was the same Spirit that escaped her that night.
Tokisaki Kurumi then shifted her gaze from Shido to the rest of the class and said with a perfect smile.
"Oh, I should mention this but I am a Spirit..."
Everyone who was cheering stared at her speechlessly. It's like she said something ridiculous.
