However the sound of the rain had suddenly died down

Four figures were visible out the window Three were girls and one was a young man They all had an otherworldly beauty as they smiled softly at her

The falling raindrops veered unnaturally away from the balcony as if they disliked the people standing there

The preparations for the guiding chant are complete The location of FeTUS headquarters has been confirmed We are prepared to bring judgment

Now we must only wait for Metatron

Micha’s expression stiffened when the young man – Rapha – said that

She instantly forgot all about the intoxication brought on by the four beers

Please hurry this up Micha The higher ups seem irritated that the current situation is making the humans look better than us

I am well aware

Her voice was rough The young man quietly closed his eyes said please once more and then left The three girls followed suit

Micha sighed quietly as she watched them leave

Her eyes stopped on the lunchbox she had just finished eating from

That lunch had been filled with Fujita Mutsuki’s love

I wonder if this will be the least time he makes one of those for me she quietly pondered

She reached for a nearby shelf instead of the beers she had set down It contained a few drinks with higher alcohol content like whisky and brandy

It also contained a photo of Mutsuki Ange and Micha that they had taken a while back

She closed her eyes when she saw the smiling boy in the photo She carelessly grabbed a bottle of whisky and began drinking it straight from the bottle

Adolescent Adam 4 Chapter 2 - Unending Rain

It was the end of the term so the afternoon classes were shortened By two it was already time to leave

Fujita do you have a moment

Just as he was about to leave his homeroom teacher called out to him

Both Mutsuki and Ange turned around as they were leaving together When she realized who it was the look in Ange’s eyes sharpened

They both knew their homeroom teacher Katsue Subaru was actually Schwarze Katze an agent

of FeTUS which was opposed to the angels like Ange It was only natural for her to grow tense

Schwarze responded to the blatant hostility with a look of pure belligerence but

There was simply a problem with your future plans form

She shook her head to show she had no intention of fighting today

Mutsuki trusted her and said understood so Ange reluctantly ended her hostile glare

I’m going on ahead

She stomped off

Mutsuki and Schwarze both watched in shock as she left

The issue really was nothing much He had failed to fill out part of the form based on their previous meeting about his future plans Once they reached the counseling room they were done in only ten seconds After that their focus naturally turned to their previous surprise

I’m shocked Jiyuuni would leave you behind like that Did you get into a fight

No Or rather she always goes back with me even if we do

Ange had gone back home on her own

A bitter look came over both of them as they sat across the desk from each other

Fujita Mutsuki possessed the Serpent’s Eye and Ange had been sent as his bodyguard She had always been with him for the two months since she had appeared

She had stayed by his side day in and day out even when they got into fights and no matter how awkward it was

And today she knew a member of an organization after the Serpent’s Eye had contacted him yet she left him behind

She almost seemed to have abandoned her duties as bodyguard

Ange has been acting weird lately She zones out a lot and sometimes looks really lonely

HmMaybe there’s something to this

Schwarze was mostly just confused that she had suddenly been handed the perfect opportunity to abduct him

Jiyuuni is a lot like me She finds purpose in the duties given to her and pours her entire life into that I find it hard to believe she would abandon those duties like this

I know

Mutsuki felt her entire life was going a bit far but he knew better than anyone how diligent she was after being protected by her for the past two months

The teacher spoke to her confused student

Then again it is possible she found something else to live for like I did

Her tone dropped and she gave him a damp look

These were not the eyes of a teacher They were the eyes of a woman and they sent his heart racing

We’re all alone nyow

After making sure no one else was watching she hopped onto the desk with inhuman speed

As her eyes moved right in front of him the slightly unnatural coloration of the irises revealed them to be contact lenses

Ah wait Sensei stop

Stop But you haven’t shown me any love since that time Are you the type that doesn’t feed his pet kitty

She licked his mouth

Mutsuki could act confidently when it came to Black Cat but he was hopelessly weak when it came to Katsue-sensei The obedient student simply let his teacher suck at his lips

Ange leaving had not been completely irresponsible

She already knew Schwarze would not abduct Mutsuki or do anything else he would not like

She had attempted to abduct him before but when she failed he had fucked her for a full night

She now adored him to the point of abandoning the duty she had previously seen as her meaning in life Even if she did abduct him she would likely return him if he so much as kissed her

S-something else to live for But Ange doesn’t have any hobbies outside of fighting

Mutsuki smiled bitterly as he freed his lips

Schwarze was entirely intoxicated now and she shrugged in displeasure

It doesn’t have to be a hobby Maybe it’s a guy

A guy But there aren’t any guys around her

The boy gasped at his own words

He could think of one man near her Rapha

She viewed that angel like an older brother and Mutsuki did not like being around him

An unpleasant feeling squeezed at his chest and he could find nothing more to say

With their business complete he bowed and left the counseling room

He made his way to the main entrance and found that Ange really had left She was nowhere to be seen and her shoes were gone He had been hoping she was waiting for him so he sighed

The faces of Ange and Rapha spiraled around and around in his mind

(It doesn’t matter to me if she likes Rapha )

Machina Micha Schwarze and even Lucia

Whether angel FeTUS or demon he had a variety of relationships with people who had reason to target him and he had even slept with them but he had no such experience with Ange (as far as he remembered) So in his mind they were only friends There should not have been any problem if she had feelings for someone else

But even that reasoning failed to suppress the feelings roiling in his chest

I need to get home

He sighed again and changed into his outdoor shoes

Huh

He filled with a different sort of anger when he looked to the umbrella stand

An unfamiliar umbrella with a broken frame was sitting in his spot

Oh honestly

He could have used his cellphone to call for someone to get him but he could not bear to do that when it might be Ange who came

He gave up on the stolen umbrella issue and decided to run home

He realized it must have been the night that the typhoon was supposed to arrive The rain and wind were so strong he thought he would be blown away

He began cursing the school’s location atop a hill as he held his bag over his head and ran down the slope while making sure not to slip

The waterproof bag worked as an umbrella but it was almost meaningless in this heavy rain and he was quickly soaked from head to toe

Ha ha

He gave up on avoiding the rain and stopped running

That was when he remembered that rain and heartbreak always went together in old dramas and manga It always started raining right when the protagonist’s heart was broken

He felt like he was in one of those scenes
