Let us start...

In the morning the next day, Raizen wake up Louise before breakfast.

Louise: *looking at Raizen* "Who are you?.... Right, you're my familiar, where are my clothes?"

R: "Here... *gives her clothes* I will be outside while you change" *walking a few feet, he was then stopped by Louise*

Louise: "Where do you think you're going? Nobles don't dress themselves. That is why they have servants for."

Raizen, who seeing in person, a brat being on a high horse, made him dumbfounded. Not even the royalties and aristocrats from doulou dalu were that high and mighty. They can at least treat their servants better because they need them. But if Louise has this kind of attitude while still learning from the academy then he might just snap at her.

R: *sigh...* "Ok, I will do it but close your eyes."

Louise: "Why do I have to do that for?!"

R: *staring at her and making her flinch on her spot* "Do you want to be dressed or not?"

Louise just nodded and closed her eye. After a few seconds, her clothes were already on her.

R: "Now open them"

Louise: *amazed that she got dressed without feeling the movements* "How did you d-"

R: *stops her from talking with a gesture* "Don't bother asking because I will not tell you. At least not yet. You will not tell anybody of the thing I do and will do. And as you said, I'm just your familiar, and we will keep it that way until otherwise. Are we clear?"

Louise nods because she was not able to move her mouth and talk. Now she was thinking that she might have summoned something unbelievable which made her pride increase.

Raizen notice the change of attitude of Louise but did not point it out because it will not hinder her in any way. She is a strong child even with the bullying throughout the years, she still keeps her head up high. If she didn't have her pride then maybe she would have given up before and if she had failed yesterday's summoning ritual, then that would be the last blow to her fragile heart. So Raizen let Louise have this knowledge so that it might help boost her confidence.

At the dining area of the student. While Raizen and Louise were walking inside, the students were talking about them. Mostly the girls who were there when they saw the face of the familiar of Louise and how handsome he is. Other students did not believe them especially those who considered themselves on the top in terms of the face. The boys from the 2nd year did not say something because the others might think that they were joking if they said that "they might be gay". After letting Louise sit in her place, Raizen went out to the area of the other familiars. But instead of doing that, he walks straight to the kitchen. He pulls out two small jars and a glass cup from his chamber before going near the academy's kitchen.

When he was there, the cooks were curious about who is this fellow, why does he have a mask and holding two jars with a glass cup. Raizen then asks if they have and extra ingredients of fruits, ice, milk, and sweet syrup. The head chef asks why is he here and why do he need those ingredients.

Raizen just said that he was a familiar summoned yesterday and his master might want a dessert. They knew who the master he was talking to because the 2nd year students keep talking about it the whole two days.

The head chef asked what kind of dessert will he make while giving him what he needs. Raizen smiled and said that he just have to watch. He then proceeds to clean the fruits like grapes, sweet mango, and banana.

He peeled them and put them in a glass cup having a length of 4 inches in length. He then put shaved ice, purple-colored food, and red-colored marble in the middle. Next is shaved ice again on top of it and lastly, the milk and syrup are poured into the glass cup. For the milk, he had to sterilize and sweeten it without the others noticing. After he was done, he asked for a cloche to cover the dessert.

While he was doing the process of making the dessert. He got to know the name of the head chef as Marteau.

Marteau: "So what do call this dessert?"

R: "From where I come from, some people called this "halo-halo". There are other varieties but this will be considered the simplest form of the dessert?"

Marteau: "What are those other ingredients that you put in it?"

R: "That will be a secret for now. As you can see I already used all of it but if I'm able to replicate it, then I will teach you how to make it. *looking outside* It seems the 2nd years were already outside and with their new familiars. I must go and find my master before she gets lonely. Au revoir~.

Raizen found Louise sitting with other girls and even without my enhanced hearing. I could tell that they were talking about me and Louise is either blushing or getting embarrassed. He then walk close to their table and Louise noticed him while carrying something.

Louise: "Where have you been?! I was looking everywhere for you."

R: "I'm touched that you cared for me that much"

Louise: "Hmph! It's my responsibility to look out for you because you're my familiar! What is that anyway? *pointing to what Raizen was holding*

R: "Well I was at the kitchen making a dessert and because it is slightly hot outside. This might lessen the heat.

Raizen then took off the cloche and Louise and the others at the table see a big glass cup with fruits and ice inside of it.

R: "Take it"

Louise took the glass cup and felt the cold exterior. Raizen put the cloche and the base in an empty seat in their location and help Louise stir the glass cup. They noticed the color inside change from different colors to red then purple.

R: "Try it"

Louise: *trying her first tablespoon full of purple stuff* mmm... It's sweet and cold."

Louise was enjoying the dessert but savoring every scoop. The others at the table ask if they can also have the same dessert the same as Louise currently eating. Raizen then looked at her master but it seems that she was preoccupied for the moment.

R: "I'm sorry ladies but that one glass is what the ingredients were able to fill and other ingredients were out of stock even if you ask the cooks in the kitchen. If I manage to gain more in the future then I will make some."

The girls agreed but walk away from the table to not be bothered by Louise eating her dessert.

R: "I will get you something to drink to wash the sweets from your teeth."

Raizen did not get any response from Louise so he walked away and go the kitchen again to get some water. Along the way, he saw the first-year girl that was being courted by Guiche last night. It put a smile on his covered face knowing the outcome of the drama. He walks up to her and said:

R: "Hello there, are you looking for Guiche?"

The girl was startled at first but calmed down when she noticed that it was just the familiar of her upper-classman. Everybody knows of the familiar of Louise who has a masked that covered his face. Some upper-classman says that underneath the mask, he was very handsome that even the boys were having problems looking at him. But she did not believe it. No one else will be as handsome as her Guiche. Right?

Girl: "Yes, do you know where lord Guiche is?"

Raizen nods and pointed out to the table where he is and currently talking to Montmorency. He then followed the girl behind to see the drama up close and personal.

Just like in the anime, Guiche was caught red-handed by the two girls. When Montmorency asks for an explanation, Raizen gives her the photo taken last night.

R: "I know right. The guy who is courting you in the day is meeting with another by night. I don't know what culture you guys have but a guy going for two girls without their knowledge is considered "two-timing".

Guiche: "Your spouting non-sense. How did you even get that painting?! That is-"

R: "Let me stop you there. If you continue to say that it was fake then you are stepping to the dignity of the person who is with you at that time. You don't want that to happen don't you?"

Guiche closed his mouth to stop talking and look at the first-year girl and Montmorency.

Guiche: "This all a big misunderstanding, I can explain"

Mon/girl: "You're a big liar!" *Mont slapped Guiche so hard that he fall to his butt*

After the drama, Guiche looks at the familiar of Louise and told him about how he was being disrespectful to nobility.

Guiche: *looking at Raizen* "I, Guiche de Gramont, challenge you to a duel for making the two maidens cry"

Raizen didn't say anything and just agrees to Guiche will just follow him in the dueling site.

Other students who heard the duel of Guiche against the familiar of Louise were excited that something like this happened in the academy where duels between nobility are forbidden. Louise, who just finished eating the dessert, heard that Raizen was fighting Guiche. She knows that no plebeian in the past was able to win against a nobility.

In an open space in the academy, Guiche is facing off against the familiar of Louise who was now holding a black sword. He and the other students were confused because from what they know, the familiar don't have any sword with him before facing Guiche.

They tried to ask but Raizen did not bother answering which made some students angry that a plebeian is ignoring them.

Louise: "Guiche, stop this. You know that fights between nobles are forbidden."

Guiche: "Why yes, the rules did state that but the one I'm fighting is not a noble is he? *looking and pointing at Raizen* Put away that mask of yours. I want to see it beaten up after the duel."

Raizen just sighs inside and walks towards Louise. He then took off his mask that made her and the other girls blush.

R: "Take care of it for me" *smiles then walks back to his previous spot*

Louise was not able to stop Raizen and just pray to Brimir that he will be okay.

Guiche: "You still have a chance to beg to stop this fight"

Raizen just stood in his spot with the black sword stabbed on the ground. This silent gesture made Guiche even angrier.

Guiche: "If you're not going to move, then I will make you move. *creating his golems* As my name suggests, my element is earth and I can create a brass golem. A valkyrie to be precise and will be your opponent."

Guiche created three golems instead of one and motioned them to attack Raizen. Some students look away because having three golems attack a plebeian is still too much for punishment.

Louise also looked away but returned her sights to the fight when she heard the gasping sounds coming from other students. She then sees that Raizen is fine and has not moved from his spot but the fists of three golems were in his face.

R: "Is that it?" *looking at Guiche with one eye that was not covered by a fist*

Guiche got scared and created more golems to attack his opponent but the next thing he knew is that the familiar of Louise was not on his spot and the students were shouting in his direction telling him to not move.

Out of curiosity, he tried to move his head but stop when an unfamiliar sensation was felt in his neck. He then move his eyes to his left side where most students were looking and see the familiar not looking at him and guessing that a part of the sword that his opponent is holding was in his neck.

R: "You are lucky that this was just a duel and I don't want to tarnish Louise's name by killing a bug like you. So behave yourself. Remember, my name is Raizen and if I ever see you make another girl cry again... I will make you impotent."

Raizen took away the sword from Guiche's neck and walk towards Louise. While was walking, the golems who were stationary have their heads roll to the ground and the bodies crumbled by cuts and sliced.

When he was a foot away from Louise, the other students move a few steps back but some girls only flinch from their spot. Seeing the girls who did not move, he smiles at them which made passed out while smiling. He then looks at Louise and smiles at her.

R: "Thank you for keeping it safe. *took back his mask and put it on his face* Now why don't we go to the kitchen and I will make you something different this time."

Louise nods and the two of them left the students with their dumbfounded look. While the duel is happening, Colbert and Osmond were discussing about the rune that manifest in the left hand of Louise's familiar. Osmond's secretary, miss Longueville, manage to get a glimps of the rune and walks out of the room. She then started to watched the duel from the open field and was similarly shocked by the outcome.
