Several days had passed since the psychiatrist ran away.
Since that day, Chika Fujiwara began to intentionally or unintentionally avoid Shalltear's proximity.
Because of this, she spent more time in the Tabletop Gaming Club, and her appearances in the Student Council decreased instead.
Shalltear also noticed this and could only shake her head helplessly, sighing about how 'humans are always like this, refusing to have deep interactions with non-human life forms.'
Yu Ishigami, who was present at the time, couldn't help but retort, 'You say that as if you aren't human yourself.'
Kaguya Shinomiya was so scared that she made a rare work error, spilling coffee on Shirogane Miyuki's shoulder.
But fortunately, Shalltear didn't seem to care, and Kaguya Shinomiya breathed a sigh of relief.
To protect the safety of the President and her junior, she really has it too hard.
"Speaking of which, Shalltear-senpai, aren't you visiting the Student Council a bit too frequently?" Yu Ishigami began to make small talk. "You aren't even a member of the Student Council."
It couldn't be helped; this senior's style gave him the feeling of chatting with an online companion.
Full of chuunibyou vibes.
Therefore, he had a fairly high opinion of this senior who always ran to the Student Council to drink black tea.
After all, he could properly address her as "senpai."
This was a treatment that only the third person outside of the Student Council members, besides Maki Shijo and Tsubame Koyasu, could receive.
"Oh? Does Ishigami-kun really want me to join the Student Council?" Shalltear glanced at Yu Ishigami and asked.
Among humans, besides Ai Hayasaka, Hayasaka Nao (who was loved by extension), and the Master's work target Kaguya Shinomiya, the humans Shalltear had the highest favorability for were Chika Fujiwara and Yu Ishigami, who was clicking away endlessly at his laptop across from her.
Because the other party knew a lot of internet slang and content about new anime.
Shalltear could obtain from him quite a few 'keys' that could be used for intimate conversations with the Master in their two-person world.
Therefore, Yu Ishigami's friendliness rating with her was even slightly higher than that of Chika Fujiwara.
"But unfortunately, the Student Council only has one 'General Affairs' member left, right? I am not the type of person who would serve anyone other than the 'Master'." Shalltear smiled coldly, making Yu Ishigami shudder all over.
As expected, this senior has a very high compatibility with him!
However, it would be even better if the air conditioning weren't set so low.
Yu Ishigami was probably the first person in this Student Council, besides the involved party Kaguya Shinomiya, to notice Shalltear's abnormality.
After all, a nerd who likes playing games and occasionally watches anime has an absurdly high ability to accept the occurrence of supernatural events.
Moreover, judging from the 'fear' and 'terror' Kaguya-senpai occasionally showed towards Shalltear, this Shalltear-senpai was likely an existence belonging to the Chaotic Evil alignment.
But so what?
Even if the senior is a supernatural monster, her attitude towards him, Yu Ishigami, is far friendlier than that of ordinary humans!
And Yu Ishigami had never seen Shalltear-senpai do anything bad or show a ferocious face.
Therefore, he didn't have any fear of Shalltear.
To tell the truth.
Seeing Kaguya-senpai trembling in fear, he even secretly rejoiced in the depths of his heart.
Although he felt sorry for Kaguya-senpai, who had always taken care of him, that expression of being scared and uneasy... was really super interesting!
He could also suppress the urge to call Kaguya-senpai 'Mom' because of this.
"Speaking of which, although I always hear Shalltear-senpai calling someone 'Master', what kind of person is your 'Master'?" Yu Ishigami inadvertently entered a minefield.
Kaguya Shinomiya could no longer maintain a calm appearance and looked at Yu Ishigami with a terrified face.
As someone who had lived together for nearly a month, Kaguya Shinomiya was very clear about how much of a taboo Daniel, this 'Master', was among those monsters.
If Yu Ishigami really jokingly said something bad about the 'Master', then the next moment awaiting him might be Shalltear's sharp nails!
"He is the greatest person in the world!" Shalltear, like a devout believer who had ignited with the fervor of proselytizing after hearing others' curiosity about the 'Lord', put the black tea back on the table, then stood up abruptly with her hands clasped at her chest. "That is the omniscient and omnipotent person who can deter and suppress gods, and unify the whole world with his own power!"
"...Ah, I see." Yu Ishigami didn't quite know how to face Shalltear in this state.
Because at this moment, the expression on her face was just like one of those brainwashed, corrupted heroines in the doujinshi Yu Ishigami had seen before!
She was only missing little hearts in her eyes!
He even started to have thoughts of'should I call the police first?'
But as soon as he thought about how this senior might be a supernatural monster, and that the 'Master' who could contain such a monster and was revered as an existence far beyond gods... was that really something the police could handle?
The thought of calling the police vanished in an instant.
But he still looked at Kaguya Shinomiya with a pleading gaze.
Senior, it was my fault for laughing at you earlier, please save me now!
How do I escape from this eerie aura!
However, Kaguya Shinomiya, who was being stared at, turned her face away, refusing to make eye contact with him.
Senior Kaguya!
"By the way, Shalltear, is your 'Master' a student at this school?" Shirogane Miyuki asked, looking at Shalltear with a straight face.
President, what are you doing!
Kaguya Shinomiya cast a look of terror at Shirogane Miyuki.
And Yu Ishigami looked at Shirogane Miyuki with an expression that said, 'The savior has descended once again.'
As expected of my eternal guiding light, President!
"Not at all." Shalltear regained her composure and sat back down in her previous spot, replying, "After all, with a Master as great as he is, how could there be relationships like 'teacher' or 'principal' which are positions of superiority? Even gods can, at most, only be 'allies' or 'companions' who stand on the same level as the Master."
Kaguya Shinomiya was sweating profusely on the side.
Perhaps the President and Junior Ishigami took these words as a joke, but as a witness, Kaguya Shinomiya, believed them implicitly.
After all, that god, King Arthur, was currently following him in that very same equal relationship.
"I, see..." Shirogane Miyuki seemed to be defeated by Shalltear's logic as well, lowering his head to begin reorganizing the student council files.
"What, are you two curious about the Master? Perhaps I can convey your request to meet him to the Master." Shalltear glanced at Yu Ishigami and Shirogane Miyuki, speaking words that almost made Kaguya Shinomiya collapse to the floor in fright.
But Shirogane Miyuki and Yu Ishigami were intrigued.
