Chapter 2 - A night of disappointments

I can't believe this… I didn't think anyone could be bigger idiots when it comes to flirting than incubi, but humans have totally outdone them! One look—one stupid look—and they'd already messed their underwear! Unbelievable… Eliss grumbles to herself as she strolls lazily down Ueda's main street, her head down. The pale moonlight glimmers across her silky golden hair.

She's only been here for twelve hours, and she's already ready to give up. Every single one of them—literally everyone—lost their cool the second she said "hi".

And worse—how the hell am I supposed to tell my friends, after bragging for a whole month that I was dating a bombshell like Miori Yukinaga…»

Aoshi lifts his eyes to the night sky and sighs in defeat. «I really am an idiot… thinking that someone like her—the most popular and desired girl in the entire university—could ever fall for a total nobody like me. Well… it was nice while it lasted. Time to come back down to earth.»
