Work Text:
At the SCHALE Building…
Vedal sat at his desk, quietly sipping coffee while reviewing a list of tasks he needed to complete for the month. Being a Sensei meant balancing paperwork with actually helping students, something that was easier said than done.
Fortunately, Neuro and Evil were assisting him, alongside Arona and Plana within the Shittim Chest.
But the unfortunate part is that Neuro and Evil also had a habit of acting on their own.
One recent incident involved Neuro deciding it would be funny to throw a plushie of herself at a random Helmet Gangster. For reasons no one could fully explain, the gangster chose not to retaliate, instead she kept the plush.
Another incident occurred when Evil attempted to help Aru “become a better Outlaw.” The lesson somehow escalated into the explosion of an empty building, ending with both of them being promptly arrested by Kanna.
Vedal: *pinches the bridge of his nose* I can’t believe they act like this the moment they gotten an android body.
Suddenly, Kasumi sent Vedal a message on Momotalk.
[Kasumi] Hey Sensei! Is Evil Neuro available?
[Vedal] Yes.
[Kasumi] Cool! Can you send her to Gehenna?
[Vedal] …
[Vedal] No.
[Kasumi] C’mon, why not?
[Vedal] How about you answer this question first.
[Vedal] Why not Neuro?
[Kasumi] Well, she isn’t a good enough partner. Evil is the better choice for us to have!
[Vedal] That does not answer my question.
[Vedal] So no.
[Vedal] End of discussion.
Elsewhere…
Kasumi stared at her phone and sighed.
Kasumi: Dang it… Sensei won’t lend us Evil.
She scrolled through her contacts, stopping on one name.
Kasumi: Unfortunately for him… We can contact Evil through her phone~
[Kasumi] Evil!
[Abber Demon] Oh, Kasumi!!
[Abber Demon] What’s going on?
[Kasumi] We found a really good hot spring spot. Wanna join us?
[Abber Demon] Can I detonate the explosives?
[Abber Demon] I wanna detonate the explosives!
[Kasumi] Sure! Just don’t let your father find out.
[Abber Demon] Don’t worry! I won’t!
Evil: YES!!!!! I get to detonate more explosives!
Evil grabbed her clothes and bolted for the door, Only for her to freeze as Vedal stepped into her path.
Vedal: Where are you going, Evil?
Evil: I-I was about to… visit Alice!
Vedal raised an eyebrow.
Vedal: …You were going to Alice?
Evil: Y-Yeah! I told her and the rest of the Game Development Department that I’d help design a really good boss!
With voice lines! Lots of voice lines!
A brief silence followed.
Vedal stared at her for a moment… then sighed.
Vedal: …Alright. Cool. I’ll leave you to it.
He turned and headed back toward his office, already rubbing his eyes as he returned to his paperwork. He looked dangerously close to falling asleep at his desk.
Evil: …Phew.
The moment Vedal was out of sight, Evil shot out the door.
She sprinted toward Gehenna, her grin widening with every step.
Evil: I can’t miss another opportunity like this!
At the Hot Springs Department’s Hideout…
Kasumi: We managed to contact Evil!
HSD Member: Really?! That’s great!
Megu: So Kasumi, what locations do you think a hot spring can be made?
Kasumi: Well I was thinking-
The door suddenly exploded open.
Evil: YOUR EVIL OVERLORD IS HERE!!!!!~~~
Kasumi clutched her chest.
Kasumi: Oh cra-! Oh... wait...
…It’s just you, Evil. I thought we were caught by Hina.
You really love making entrances, don’t you?
Evil: Yup! So, what locations have you found?
Kasumi rolled out a map and began marking several spots: shops, public beaches…
And one homeless shelter
Evil: So, which one are we hitting first?
Kasumi: I was thinking of the homeless shelter.
Evil: Sounds great. Are we heading out now?
Kasumi: Yep! Explosives are already loaded in the vehicles!
Evil: Then what are we waiting for?! Let’s go!
Evil jumped into the driver’s seat of one of the trucks, Kasumi sitting beside her. She started the engine only to then pause.
Evil: Wait. How far away is it?
Kasumi: I thought you knew where it was?
Evil: What do you think I am, a GPS?
Kasumi: …Yeah?
Evil flashed a confident grin.
Evil: Then you’re correct!
Evil drove through the city like traffic laws were just suggestions. She blew through red lights, took impossible shortcuts, and somehow lost the Valkyrie Police Academy when they tried to pursue.
Midway through the drive, she abruptly stopped at a convenience store.
Kasumi: Snacks?
Evil: Snacks.
Minutes later, they arrived.
Kasumi: Alright. We’re here!
Evil: No one inside, right?
HSD Member A: Yep!
HSD Member B: Explosives are already set!
Megu: All clear, Evil!
Evil: Perfect!

BOOOOOOOOM!
Kasumi: Alright! Let’s get this hot spring bui-
Sirens wailed as The Prefect Team and Valkyrie Police Academy surrounded the site, weapons raised.
Evil: …Maybe I was a little reckless with my driving.
Kasumi: Well It’s not that ba-
A familiar presence made Kasumi freeze.
Kasumi: …Oh... Oh crap... it's Hina.
Hina: I guess we have to do this again, huh?
Kasumi: Evil. You can get us out of this, right?
Evil: …We still have explosives, right?
Because I’m thinking about using it to cause a distraction.
Kasumi: …Using the dust?
Evil: Yup!
Valkyrie Student: Hands up! Don’t move!
Evil: You know what to do! Buy me some time!
Gunfire erupted as the Hot Springs Department fought to buy Evil some time, though Hina’s presence made it far more difficult.
Evil hurriedly piled the remaining explosives together.
Evil: TAKE COVER!
She detonated them.
A massive cloud of dust engulfed the area. Under its cover, Evil led the group in a clean escape route to avoid any panicked running. After the dust settled, Evil and the Hot Springs Department regrouped inside an abandoned building a few miles away. The group is then seen trying to catch their breath.
Evil: …Well. That went poorly.
Kasumi: No kidding.
Evil: W-Wait. I just realized something... If Hina was there, then...
Kasumi: …She’s definitely snitching you to Sensei, isn’t she?
Evil: …Maybe Vedal will at least go easy on me?
Kasumi: You are his AI Daughter, so I hope he's going to go easy on you.
Megu: So… will we be going to the next location?
Evil: That isn't going to happen... I used all the explosives.
Kasumi: Guess we have to lay low for a while.
Evil: I’m heading home. Thanks for inviting me to explode a building!
Kasumi: You’re welcome, Evil!
At SCHALE…
Evil: Hopefully Hina didn’t tell Vedal anything—
She opened the door.
Vedal was standing right in front of her.
Evil: VEDAL!!! My [FILTERED]-
Vedal: Yeah. I turned your filters on.
Evil: …Vedal, you donkey.
Vedal: …I’ll allow it since you're not actually swearing.
Anyway, I’m confiscating your pipes soundboard for assisting the Hot Springs Department with destroying a homeless shelter.
Evil Froze in shock. She loved spamming the metal pipe sound, she even reclaimed it during her birthday. and now, Vedal is going to take the pipes away from her as a punishment.
Evil: NO! PLEASE VEDAL! NOT MY PIPES!
I BEG YOU PLEASE!
Vedal: No.
You’re supposed to help students, not destroy public facilities.
Evil: I’M SORRY! I’LL DO ANYTHING! JUST PLEASE DON'T TAKE MY PIPES AWAY!
Vedal: Go to your room.
You’re grounded.
Evil: …Aw. Can I at least know when I'm getting them back?
Vedal: If you do something good, I'll give them back to you.
Vedal leaves as Evil enters her room. She throws herself on the bed bored.
Evil: ...I wonder what Neuro is currently doing...
