Chapter 03: Exordium

Just the steps and sounds of talking to each other in the deserted passageway. Apple is not nervous to say to each other because the person he faced— is the same as in the place where it used to be—friendly again good.

"So, it's a requirement to go up to Meister's class."

"Here it is written to guide two new students to Page 1." Steps back flinched, facing the blonde girl and styled like a pleading person. "You yeah? It also makes it easier for you to learn at EA, we both benefit."

"I-iya .. yes, do not stop suddenly continue to dong, make a surprise," said Apple

"Okay, thank you! Ahahaha, I can finally catch up with you dear Mizu!" The tone is spirit, it's weird this guy—think Apple. Maybe, it's not that bad. Don't judge one eye, otherwise a blond young man could have been lost until night.

Silence, on the way still do not meet others. Unlike Apple, Jin is used to it. It's not so bad. Under the blue mega as a natural canopy was swish wind carrying a mute sound, surrounded by forest over an island not caught on the map. So, who's going to visit? This does not mean that they forged atlas with the help of higher-ups, but there is a protective barrier. Wrapped in curiosity, was there an artificial moon like the Nura clan? The sky blue eyes began to scrutinize the horizon.

"Ughh! Say don't stop suddenly!" said ketus Apple found the nose hit Jin's back. Actually, it's her fault too. Too busy looking for an artificial moon that doesn't exist in this place. Not wanting to be blamed, it was also fortunate that Jin was level-headed.

Replying his savage nature with a light smile, scratching his nape. "Ehehehe sorry, but we've arrived."

Standing front door teak solid decorated iron panel inscribed Yukio. The blonde youth knocked three times, there was a time span from one beat to another.

"Jin Vermillion's. Teacher, there are students who want to complete the registration," he said firmly, different from the previous one. Is it because of facing a person who is honorable enough to make himself appear polite?

A firm voice sounded from within, inviting in. This kind of situation made the girl nervous again.

"Do you want me to bring the bag?"

"Not necessary, thank you." Returning stammered, not daring to see the other person. Jin opened the door with a light smile, waving as Apple came in. Closing the door, he didn't come in.

The aroma of herbs blend in this office room. Between the bookshelves and the medicine cabinet; the transparent box containing the Smith & Wesson 500 Magnum pistol is so striking. On the wooden floor bearing the EA emblem, there was an early man in his thirties looking at the garden from behind the glass replacement back wall. Looks so enjoy the tranquility with a cup of hot chocolate in the grip.

The man now throws a glance at Apple, until his dark blue eyes appear. Smiling, circling the metallic black table, sitting on the bench in tune. Carefully place the cup, do not want to stain the document on the table.

Take a piece of paper. "Let's see ... Apple Luchifen?"

Heart thumping heard him calling by his real name. Apple was surprised, why did he know? Because Scarlet? The old man used to say he had everything arranged for him, but why? Is it not dangerous to use a clan? Anxious, his face wrinkled. However, the man in front continued to smile with the occasional fixing of the sunglasses frame position.

"Telling about the past?" Vainly swallow the ball in the throat—gugup once—so that the sound does not come out.

Smile faded, Yukio moved from the seat. Go back to picking up the glass, approach the girl. "You want some warm chocolate? I haven't drunk it at all."

Apple hypnotis—directly take—because nervous amazing. It is not wrong to drink it under these circumstances, he thought. I already accepted the offer. Warm from the side. Drink sips. Perfectly rounded eyes, feels good. Apple continues to stand until it is not left. Comfortable to the stomach makes calm.

"It's okay not to tell a story." Yukio smiled back in silence.

Unpleasant taste gnawed. Right, those EA guys are good. Apple held tightly to the empty cup, its heart churned. Yukio sat down again; tidied up the table and spread out a piece of paper with a picture of the world map at that time.

"It's the Luchifenian kingdom, isn't it?" Yukio pointed to one of the places in the light brown map. His attention is stolen, Apple approaches Yukio and relives.

"Luchifenian was destroyed about eight or ten years ago. Now led ... The levianthans." The word that is terapal tickles until Apple squints. There seems to be a strange. Ah, maybe just a feeling.

The blonde opened up, telling her of an exhausting night. When the sky is red, it's like the blood of the hallway. The white moon fell, like a cake. The droplet melts, like the tirta netra. One loved one's blood falls. Strange and scared one day. The face of sadness that wants to be forgotten. Touched Begonia flowers on the head, the only relic.

"Now your name is Apple Caramel."

"Yes, he asked for it. He also said it would be dangerous if I used my real name."

"Him?"

"The one who's missing from my life, RedStar. Want to see you again, I guess." From there Yukio was silent as if thinking of something, her forehead wrinkled.

Dark blue eyes looked at the girl, sadness was clearly there. Maybe, just get here. "I'm sorry to dig into your past. Actually already knew some of the Nura clan chiefs, but had to confirm. EA is strict, but your identity and everything else is safe because it's our job."

"No, I'm actually grateful for my life. It is hard and there are many trials, but people are always helping. I'll keep living and .. don't want to lose anymore." Smiling knots, his tone was calm.

Amazed at the blossoming look at Apple's maturity. The dark past does not break the spirit. Rarely meet the owner of such a big kink. He was a kid. Painful memories can form two personalities. One who is destructive; negative; enveloped in darkness, and one who is an early adult; rigid; has a different view of life. Lucky this girl gets good nature and matures.

"I hope you can reach your wishes and find the person you are looking for. Look around, you are not alone. Take another breath when you lose again. When you want to break down a wall that stands in your way, seek courage because you will find it. If you stop and close your eyes, look for answers because you will get them. If you feel like the world is falling apart and can't find your way home.don't cry, listen to these words and remember."

A word that sounded so warm was like hot chocolate that calmed the heart. Very kind. Life is spinning; sometimes good and sometimes bad, just as good. So why stop, if we don't know the end of this breath. Yes, I will find answers. Life has been cruel from the beginning so for what regret if we can change it.

In my heart it felt like I wanted to embrace the old brown-haired man. Advice is like advice, maybe he himself grew up with a hard life. Understanding each other, Apple was no longer nervous. The people here are really good.

"Oh, yes. Yukio, uh, sir ...."

"Call anything, it's okay."

"Ah, teacher, why is EA deserted?"

"This box contains beginner Exorcism equipment, one rule book, and one Memoir Book. In this academy you work by completing available missions. If you do well, you will get Gil, the currency here and some missions with equipment to help other missions. Ordinary teachers provide their own assignments or open special classes, the rewards are greater. Classes have several levels ranging from Page 0 to true Exorcist, there are no periodic classes like schools in general. To be clear you can read the rule book."

"Alright, but what is the Memoir Book?" ask Apple.

"Memoar Book is a book that contains the owner's memory, such as a diary. You can write it yourself."

"Oh, yes diary ...."

Yukio thrusts the box at the girl, implying to be taken. Apple approached the table with a bag tote, but its steps came to a halt. Silence; his movements were agitated, glancing repeatedly at the bags and boxes. If you have a bag, what about the box? Will be very difficult—his thoughts are chaotic. Yukio's laughter broke out seeing the blond girl's behavior like a tired person.

"Hey, Vermillion! I know you're still there. Go in and help Apple, drop off to her room." The girl was surprised to find Yukio raising her voice, turning to the door. Sure enough, the door opened and a blonde youth stepped in. Jin from out there? Wh-wh-what for? Apple looked astonished at the Vermillion elder.

"Teacher knows it ...."

"Finding your existence is easy, Vermillion."

They look at each other, a smile painted on every person. Now Jin turned his head, laughing at him who was still dumbstruck; patting softly the blonde girl. Puffing his cheeks and face reddened, it seems that Apple was actually made to risi.

"Why? Wonderful? So, you want to bring the bag?" Apple threw away its face, refusing to answer. His words were mocked, of course the girl grew furious.

Yukio shook her head to see the Vermillion youth still happy to tease the underclassmen. "Apple, your room is at Light number thirty-nine. One more thing, Light's dormitory is female only while Storm is male only. I hope it's comfortable."

Without a second thought Apple threw the bag at Jin. Caught the bag, this young man was quite nimble and it seemed like the blonde girl was really irritated. Picking up the box with a stomping crack, throwing face as it passed by the young man who was still chuckling. Because it's funny.

Both left the space, Apple tailed back. Hanging down while holding her stomach, is she hungry? I haven't eaten since morning. Swaying when stomach roars noisily. My face is red, so ashamed.

"Look! There's birds!" Now the girl pointed at one of the trees on the side of the hallway. It seems like he's trying to distract Jin.

The blond youth chuckled again looking at his behavior. "Two blocks from here and turn left, there's a waiting room. Let's take a break."

A medium-sized open space with one glass-windowed wooden cabinet, containing a variety of food and drinks. Apple landed itself on a bench right next to his bag. The first day but there were a lot of embarrassing things; disgraceful; not out of thought. The blond youth sat on the side of the blushing girl, reaching into her waist bag. Surprisingly, from such a small bag Jin took out the lunchbox. How could? His attention knew that.

"This is called Advance Bag. Although small he can store many things because there is magic power." The sky blue ball was still staring in wonder at Jin who was slightly laughing. "EA has a store that provides Exorcism goods. We go there sometime. Now, eat first."

"Isn't this a big brother's stock?"

"Yes, it's okay .. can do it again." Jin can cook? Can't be—think girl. Apple hesitated to open the box of supplies that already existed on top of the thighs of alabaster, imagining the no-no matter the contents.

Disturbed movements open the stock because of suspicion. Unexpectedly, the contents were different from the shadows. Neatly arranged, rabbit-shaped rice; octopus-shaped sausage; vegetables decorate. It's funny, honey, it's eaten, but hunger beats it all. It felt as good as what it looked until the girl closed in. Enjoying every bite, even such simple rice is savory. Jin smiled, stroking Apple's blond hair. Actually this young man is nice, just a little annoying. Jin stood up, took something from the closet to find how greedy the girl was.

"Eat it slowly." Apple nodded. After filling the stock, hunger is fulfilled. Jin immediately handed over the newly obtained milk.

"Before brother said 'I'll catch up with you dear Mizu' or something, who is Mizu?"

"Hmm, Mizu is a beautiful woman, one year younger than me. I love her so much and hope to get married soon."

"Mizu is .. what it's called, ah, I don't understand such a problem. By the way the milk is good."

"Huh? No, he's my fiance." Apple immediately spouted the milk that he drank. Shocked not playing until choking and coughing. Jin must be panicking to see Apple having this kind of trouble. Rubbed the girl's back, a look of anxious hope as if asking if she was okay.

"Hueeek, I thought I was going to die. Surprised, when yes there are people who want to be the same brother ..," Apple's speech bluntly pierced, considering that many also say like that. Even the new students were already doubting. Down, it turned out that he could feel sad and depressed as well.

Understanding Jin's behavior changing drastically, Apple grinned. Running to the front of the blonde youth, grasping both hands backwards and slightly bowing.

"Smurprise! The older brother is kind and friendly, I can also feel the kindness of big brother." Very sweet, heart breaking.

Jin took a deep breath, returning a smile with another smile. "You are this ...."

Back down the aisle, EA is too wide. It feels like a long walk, never to arrive. When the girl lived a dream, there was a man. Standing at a minimal distance with a pine tree, leaving a dense color of the trunk cortex. Apple's vision is a dark blue jacket with a hood that he wears. Curiosity tickles back, who is he?

The man knew he was being noticed, turning slightly until he had cheeks. Apple was surprised and rushed up to Jin. They were in front of Light's dorm. Jin was nervous because this place was female-only. Luckily the dorm was quiet, quickly looking for room number thirty-nine.

"Actually no male should enter, because the older brother already got permission ... So, getting here is okay?"

"Oh, yes, thank you. Sorry to bother."

"It's okay, it's the job of a counselor. Take a break." The young man put down the front door bag. Running, afraid of being caught in a female dormitory. Tiredness spread after his departure.

Apple opened the room door, unlocked. He threw a bag. I don't know where it doesn't matter because it's just a few pairs of clothes. Different from the box in his hand. Quickly put it on the table. Tiredness is not inquisitive.

"What ...."

When the box cover is opened the white light highlights to the extent that the girl has to turn her face away. Eyes wide, not believing what is seen. A look at the top book. It's like an old story book, it says Story About "RED".
