One day until the disaster

When Hiro took Loki home, Loki's body started burning again. It took him an hour once again to completely heal himself. Once done, Loki went to a mirror and noticed that this time he recovered and even though he had the body and face of Loki, his hair and eyes were dark instead.

"Well, this will be easier to explain." When Loki realised his face still was the same as before the incident, he decided to go through with this and tell that his power mutated, making his eyes and hair change colour.

He decided to go to bed first after changing his clothes to something more comfortable and going to sleep. He could hear someone coming inside his house but didn't care enough to check it out. He only knew that when morning came, he'll have to talk to Darvin to explain all of this.

He just needed some rest now...

When Darvin entered the room the following day, he found Loki sleeping peacefully on top of his covers.

"You've been busy yesterday, huh?" Noticing Loki's hair. He assumed Loki decided to change his style to match his previous life, and Darvin didn't care enough to ask.

Loki just nodded, indicating he wanted to continue being alone for the time being. At least until he woke up fully from what happened last night, he turned away from Darvin, searching for a peaceful place to sleep. However, Darvin grabbed his shoulder and forced him to look at him.

"SCHOOL!" His expression changed from worried to annoyed..... "You have to go to school!"

"Tsk." Loki rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Darvin chuckled and patted his head, earning an annoyed grunt from Loki. "Get dressed!"

After hearing that, Loki left the room without another word, not wanting to deal with his brother any longer.

"Hey guys," Loki greeted Jasmine and Hiro, fighting and teasing each other at the kitchen table. The two stopped their game almost immediately after hearing Loki calling them to welcome him back.

"Hey, Loki!" Jasmine winked. "I like your new hair!"

Hiro, who saw that, chuckled, and said, "Hey, Loki!" with a wink and sent an air kiss ", I like your new hair!~". After that, Jasmine got annoyed and slapped him on the back of his head, making him laugh even harder.

Loki smiled amusedly at his friends' antics and began eating breakfast. As soon as he finished, he made himself some coffee, but after drinking it, he realised he was still feeling tired, so he made a second one.

"Where's Sam?" Loki ​asked Jasmine while drinking his second coffee.

"Oh yeah. Sam is looking for a job in an adventurer's guild today," Jasmine told Loki while continuously kicking Hiro under the table for pinching her.

"Oh?" Loki looked interested. "Could I get a job as an adventurer?"

Jasmine shrugged, "I suppose you could, although there are many different jobs. With your powers, you could easily become a healer or exterminator during hunts for mana crystals."

Loki thought about it for a moment, knowing how much he could improve with fighting. "Hmm, maybe I should give it a try?"

Jasmine laughed. "Don't worry. Adventurers don't do anything too illegal." She then got a mischievous smirk on her face and whispered. "Even I am an adventurer and...", but as she said, Hiro kicked her under the table again, causing her to stop mid-sentence. "Hey!!"

Loki watched these two act as if they were siblings, arguing quietly and smirked, "...Alright." He looked down into the empty mug. "Maybe I'll give it a shot and see if it works out." After he finished saying that, he stood up, ready to walk to his room since he had to dress up. "Thanks for the information, I guess."

"No problem!" They both replied at the same time while laughing. Then Jasmine realised that Hiro copied what she was saying and doing and slapped him on his arm. "Stop it!" She exclaimed.

Soon, the trio heard a voice from outside the house. "Loki, for fuck sake!" Loki realised it was Darvin and checked his phone, seeing he had missed a call from his brother, who had called him four times. Loki sighed and decided to answer.

"Hello? Darvin? What do you want?" Loki asked, putting down his mug.

"Are you serious?!" Darvin said, irritated. Loki knew what was coming next. "We're going to be late for school!"

"Oh, sorry. I'll get going now" He hung up before his older brother could say anything else and walked out of the kitchen. Loki took out a fresh apple and went to the car.

"Have fun, Loki!" Hiro exclaimed after seeing Loki's annoyed expression.

"Tsk," Loki mumbled and put on the glove compartment where he placed his wallet, keys and phone. Just when Loki opened the door, Darvin, sitting in the driver's seat, was about to start the car.

"Ready for school?" Darvin raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah." Loki sighed, defeated.

As soon as he opened the school door, he felt his ex-girlfriend Sara's stare drilling holes into his skull.

He sighed.

After arriving at the school, Loki sat at his usual spot and waited for the class to start. The bell rang, indicating the first lesson, and everyone slowly arrived. Loki noticed that Sara was staring at him, which wasn't surprising. It was normal for her to stare at him like that. However, this time she did something unexpected. She actually ran over to him and hugged him!

What was happening?! What is she doing? What the fuck? Why would she hug him? Loki was so confused that he couldn't react quickly and push her away.

Everyone in the class gasped as they all believed that Sara hated Loki. However, when she let go of him, all the girls screamed and cheered. Everyone was shocked that Sara would hug Loki and not anyone else except Julia. Whose eyes glowed silver with rage. She stood up, and the teacher walked in.

"Everyone, to your seats." The teacher ordered in a stern tone. The students complied, except for Julia, who was standing and staring at Sara, who looked at her with a surprised face. Julia walked toward Sara and grabbed her neck before pushing her against the wall, hard enough to bruise her neck.

The teacher ran closer to the two girls, but Julia didn't notice. Instead, she continued to choke Sara until she fell to the floor unconscious.

"Miss Julia, release her at once!" The teacher yelled

at Julia, holding Sara by her neck. Julia reluctantly released her grip on Sara's neck before the teacher grabbed Julia's wrist. "Let her go!"

"Huh? Oh..." Julia finally regained her composure and stepped back before walking away.

Everyone stared at the scene with shocked expressions, unable to speak. No one spoke for a few seconds except for Loki, who was staring at her with a blush and a smile on his face.
