Kalego Naberius, as punctual as ever, arrived promptly at Babyls Demonic School. His imposing figure and stern expression were a constant presence in the teachers' hallway, where whispers ceased as soon as they saw him approaching. However, something was different that morning. A barely perceptible bulge protruded under his impeccable jacket, a soft curve that defied the rigid image he usually projected.
Rumors quickly spread throughout the demonic school. Kalego Naberius, the infamous and feared teacher of the Anomalous Class, pregnant!? The idea seemed as absurd as it was intriguing. Who could be the father? What did this mean for a demon so reserved and distant!?
The whispers spread rapidly among the students and other teachers as Kalego moved with his usual stoic expression. Some seemed confused, others intrigued, and a couple, like Dali Dantalion and Robin Bars, couldn't contain their laughter at the situation.
Robin Bars, always the first to notice any change, couldn't help but make a comment:
"Kalego-sensei, it seems like you've been enjoying too many demonic pastries lately!"
Kalego's face flushed with anger, barely containing the fury bubbling within him.
"Silence, Bars! Your sharp tongue will only serve to receive a harsher punishment if you don't control it."
"Kalego, my friend!" exclaimed Dali Dantalion, the oldest and most cheerful teacher of them all, approaching with a bright smile. "What wonder do you bring us today?"
Kalego scowled at the unwanted attention.
"None of your business, Dali. Don't you have anything better to do than to snoop around?"
Dali simply laughed, ignoring Kalego's sarcastic response.
"Oh, but Kalego, this is so exciting! I never imagined I'd see you in this situation."
Murmur intervened with his characteristic curiosity.
"May I ask who the lucky father is, Kalego?"
The question made several teachers hold their breath, awaiting Kalego's response with anticipation. He furrowed his brow even more, clearly annoyed by the unwanted attention.
"That's none of your concern. Let's get back to work—" But before he could continue speaking, Raim joined the conversation with his characteristic joy and flirtatiousness:
"Oh, Kalego, congratulations! Who would have thought? It seems even the most serious of all has a soft side."
Raim's words only served to increase Kalego's discomfort. He wasn't accustomed to being the center of attention in this way, let alone for something as personal as his pregnancy. However, he knew he couldn't avoid the inquisitive looks and playful comments that would surely follow throughout the day.
The other teachers watched with a mixture of fascination and confusion. Murmur tried to suppress a laugh while Orias muttered something about the strange occurrences of demonic life. Blushenko, Raim, Ipos, Marbas, and Suzy exchanged perplexed looks, unsure of what to make of the situation. Only Dali, with his bright smile, seemed to enjoy the spectacle.
Meanwhile, Morax Momonoki, with his flushed cheeks and trembling voice, could barely articulate a coherent word.
"K-K-K-K-Kalego-sensei, this is so unexpected!"
The news of Kalego's pregnancy spread like wildfire throughout the school. Some students speculated on who the father might be, while others simply couldn't believe their feared teacher was expecting a baby.
Among the other teachers, reactions varied from surprise to curiosity, and in some cases, even disapproval.
Kalego, feeling uncomfortable with all the attention, tried to change the subject.
"This is none of your business. Now, silence and take your seats!" he ordered in his usual authoritative tone.
As they entered his classroom, the students momentarily fell silent upon seeing their teacher with a new look. Some seemed surprised, others confused, and a few even found amusement in the situation.
Determined not to let his pregnancy affect his authority, Kalego adopted his usual serious expression and began the class as if nothing had changed. However, he knew he would have to get used to the looks and comments, at least for the next few months.
The rumor had already begun to spread among the teachers and eventually among the students. Wild theories about who could be the father of Kalego's baby started circulating throughout the school.
The following days were a whirlwind of gossip and whispers. Some students and teachers mocked the situation, while others were simply baffled by the sudden revelation. Jokes and sharp comments were directed at Kalego whenever he entered a room.
Robin Bars, of course, was in his element.
"Hey, daddy Kalego!" shouted Robin with his characteristic shrill voice. "How's the pregnancy going?"
Kalego clenched his teeth, suppressing the response he would have liked to give. Instead, he merely grunted something unintelligible and continued on his way.
As usual, he didn't hesitate to catch Bars' face between his claws, shout a loud "Silence" at him, and put him in a corner with an exaggerated load of books on his head.
The rumor of Kalego Naberius's pregnancy soon reached the ears of the students of the Anomalous Class. Iruma, always curious and with a strong sense of empathy, approached Kalego after class with a look of genuine concern in his eyes.
"Kalego-sensei, is it true what they say?" asked Iruma, with a mixture of surprise and confusion in his voice.
Kalego, still a little uncomfortable with all the attention, nodded his head, his expression serious and reserved revealing no emotion.
"Yes, it's true," he responded briefly. "But it's none of your business, Iruma. Go back to your seat."
Iruma nodded in understanding, but couldn't help feeling curious about the situation. After all, Kalego had always been an enigma to him, and now this new twist in his life only added more mystery.
Meanwhile, in a corner of the room, Sabnock, Lied, and Jazz were discussing animatedly who could be the father of Kalego's baby.
"I bet it's Balam-sensei," Sabnock suggested, with a mischievous smile on his face. "It would be funny to see Kalego's face if that were true."
Asmodeus frowned thoughtfully.
"I don't know. Maybe it's Opera-sensei. He's always had a strange fascination with Kalego," Lied responded with laughter.
"What if the father is someone from the Anomalous Class?" Purson proposed, causing many to gasp at the idea.
The conversation was interrupted by Kalego's sudden entrance into the room, his cold and challenging gaze sweeping the room for any signs of disorder or disobedience.
"Silence, all of you!" Kalego shouted, his voice resonating in the room. "I won't tolerate any inappropriate behavior in my classroom!"
