Yumi sat in a chair, at a table outside of a small cafe. She had woken up early that morning performing her usual routine and praying to Malum for an hour, offering up her own essence to the dark god in the form of her own blood to help him grow in power. Once she was down she would clean her wounds and head for a shower bathing under the liquid warm water letting it cleanse her delicate body of impurities. Then as always change into her usual attire of a black and red gothic lolita style, complete with high heel black boots and garter belt. Her headpiece that looked like a pair of ears was fixed tightly atop her head a cute little bow tied in the front, holding her hair in place. Her hair was parted at the front in a hime style cut. It was funny ever since she had become a demon her hair had not grown out once, it always remained at its current length never growing.

Although it had only been a few months since she became a demon she should have gotten her hair cut by now but she did not need to do so. She suspected it was thanks to her body becoming eternally youthful, as a demon she would no doubt naturally have a long lifespan. Whether she aged would be the question, she did naturally age slower or not at all these were still mysterious she had yet to discover, but with time she would.

Yumi raised a cup to her lips, sipping the caramel latte within, enjoying the sweet taste on her lips. She as she drank she reflected on her night's activities the previous. She had completed a quest yesterday and taken the head of a pretty little actress who had gotten too big for her boots and wanted to remove another actress. Sadly that actress had caught on and demanded the actress slandering her by removed. So Yumi had taken the job and claimed the girl, Jessica, pretty little head and that night she had dissolved the flesh and organs in burning acid until only the glistening white skull remained. Oh what a pretty little skull it had been, not a single imperfection, it was truly divine. Yumi had taken great joy in examining the skull, the feeling of the life she had taken coursed through her veins exciting her that night.

Yumi had taken the skull to bed as she played herself to relieve the excitement that grown within her. Many would perhaps see her as a freak for doing such a thing with a skull in hand, but Yumi cared not. The aspect of death coursed through her veins, as the souls she claimed passed through her own body and onto her Great Demonic Lord Malum to grant him power. With each passing soul that flowed through it caused her body to heat up in excitement, as a warm filled into her stomach and lust began to take over. Yumi had only claimed one life so she was able to satisfy her desire by herself, but as the kills rack up she would require a partner to satisfy the desire that grows.

Yumi sighed as she lowered her cup down, resting the lattee on the plate and looked up at the sky. As she did she noticed someone approaching her, someone she recognised from the theatre, one of the chore boys. The young lad looked at Yumi before placing a letter down on yumi's table and walked off. Yumi raised her right eyebrow at the letter in front of her wondering what it was about.

Yumi eyed the letter suspiciously, of course, she would be suspicious of it, after all, she didn't know these theatre folk too well and perhaps one was attempting to blackmail her knowing that Yumi had taken Jessica's life. Then again Yumi had been careful to make sure that her tracks had been covered, none had been around when Yumi ended Jessica's life then she simply slipped out of the theatre. Yumi poked the letter with her right index finger curiously before slowly opening it up, and pulled the note that was inside out of it. The note was as expected addressed to Yumi, sent to her from Alice Nightingale the actress with a malicious look in her eyes. Yumi had done a little investigating about Alice since she had first met her, discovering much about the young woman. Apparently, she was more malicious than even Yumi thought, Alice put on a facade of a gentle young woman like Yumi often did, but inside was a cruel vile creature just like Yumi, but she was nowhere near on the level that the demonic lolita was, very few were. Yumi couldn't remember the last time she had met someone as dark as herself, sure there may be someone in her guild that was truly vile but Yumi had yet to meet them.

Yumi pulled herself from her thoughts and returned to reading the note to see just what Alice wanted. The letter was saying that auditions for the next show was coming up and Alice wanted to make sure she got the lead, by any means necessary and she was putting emphasis on the word necessary. The note went on to say Alice was aware of Yumi's capabilities and have come to like her methods and wanted Yumi to met with the director of the next show. Alice wanted YUmi to intimidate the director enough to make sure she, Alice, got the lead role in the upcoming show. The only problem was the director was protected by a very scary looking bodyguard who was no slouch nor was he a pushover.

Yumi was to ask the director to give Alice the roll and if he didn't and instead sick his bodyguard on Yumi, Yumi was to take off the guard, without killing him. Alice also stated Yumi would have to make sure not to cause too much of a commotion or else everyone would come running to see what was going on. Alice also expressed that Yumi was not to cause too much damage to theatre if she was to clash with the director's bodyguard.

Yumi sighed as she folded the note in half before folding it again. The details of the note also explained that Alice would be paying YUmi a C rank quest reward as this vile job lined up with a C rank job, due to the power of the bodyguard protecting the director. Yumi wasn't too worried abut it, as after all it was just a simple C rank quest and she was a B rank mage fastly approaching A rank level. Yumi suspected that if she continued at this pace, Yumi suspected she could reach her desired level by the end of the week and if she did, she would be an A rank mage. That meant her level of power would be close to rivalling Caius, the current strongest member of Grimoire Heart. If Yumi could reach his level, there wouldn't be many who could stand against her, but A rank wasn't her desired goal, no S rank was.

Yumi rose from her chair, and placed a few jewels down on the table, before downing the last off her caramel coffee drink. Once she was done she walked off heading in the direction of the theatre in order to get the job over and down with. Attached to her back, as usual, was her Viking axe. As she flying over to catch up to Yumi was none other than her Duskull. As she thought about her little companion, she smiled he would be of use for her today. The tiny little creature was armed with two debuffing spells one to lower speed and the other to lower strength, while only D rank spells, for a C rank quest they would be enough to lower the guards stats. If Yumi then added her demonic pressure she could further weaken the guard, while it would not be alot it would be more than enough to do the job, especially when she used all her buff spells to bolster her physical strength to allow her to crush him with ease.

Yumi walked through the streets ignoring the looks her little companion was receiving from the townsfolk. Though there were looks coming her way not only in regards to her lithe figure but the axe she was carrying on her back. Yumi ignored the looks as she finally arrived at the theatre. Yumi pushed the doors open and walked on in. The moment she was inside, Yumi approached one of the theatre folk and asked to be shown to the director's room. The theatre stagehand showed Yumi the way before walking off leaving Yumi to her devices.

Yumi approached the director's office, walking in spotting the director in his chair, and a guard by his side. The director looked at yumi and questioned why she was here. THe Lolita then explained, no demanded that Alice be given the leading role in the next show. The director snorted in amusement and told his guard to get rid of the little lolita. Yumi sighed in annoyance and stepped into the hallway the guard following her, cracking his knuckles.

YUmi stretched out her limbs as the guard attempting to shoo her away, but when YUmi refused the guard attempted to reach out to grab her to remove her with force. A large hand grabbed Yumi's right shoulder and attempted to move her, but the lolita did not move an inch she just wouldn't budge. Yumi snorted in amusement as Duskull floated in front of the man and moved its eye back and forth. Mana flowed through the guard lowering his speed and strength. The moment it did Yumi released her demonic pressure lowering the guard's abilities even more. With his stats lowered, Yumi then flexed her muscles and flicked a wrist allowing mana to surge through her body empowering her entire being. The moment she was finished with her spells, the guild mark on her thigh illuminated itself increasing her powers exponentially, specifically her speed and strength.

Yumi reached up with her right hand, grabbing the guard's wrist and twisted. A loud snap was heard as YUmi broke his wrist making him scream out in pain. YUmi continued bending the offending limb to the point the bone pierced out of the elbow exposing itself to the world, making the guard scream louder. But before the guard could even release that loud scream, Yumi struck her fingers into his throat with enough force to make him gag and cough, hacking violently. She didn't want him drawing attention with his loud screams. Yumi then stomped down with her right foot slamming it into his stomach with enough force to sending him flying through the air. The bodyguard crashed back into the director's office colliding with the man's table.

yumi walked into the office, her demonic pressure engulfing the director. The director quivered in fear at the sight of Yumi. Magic surged out of Yumi in the shape of black flames swirling around her. The lolita's crimson hues glowed within the darkness making her appear even more demonic than she was. yumi raised her left foot and stomped down on the guard's head and began squishing into the floor, slowly, making sure not to kill him. The director quickly cried out begging Yumi to stop, saying he would give Alice the part. Yumi removed her foot and gave him a death glare and told him if he went back on his word he would not only end the guard's life but the director's as well.

With the job done, yumi walked off, leaving the office and heading back down the hallway. Yumi looked around making sure she wasn't seen by anyone and departed from the theatre. She would wait to be paid. If Alice refused to pay up, Yumi would not hesitate to find her, and yumi would find Alice at any cost, no one stiffed yumi and got away with it. Many years ago someone had tried too stiff her of a payment for a quest, it had not ended up well for them.
