Chapter 32 - DECAGRAMMATON

All-in-all, she kinda looks like a precious, ceramic doll. Especially with the beauty mark under one of her eyes.

"it's nice to meet you as well, miss..." I trail off, not knowing her name.

"My name is Akeboshi Himari. I am a genius hacker here at Millennium Science School." She says, not at all prideful, but still quite prideful.

"A hacker? I suppose that's to be expected 'round here." I say, absent-mindedly.

"Indeed. Also, I am pretty famous, so you've probably heard about me at least once before, no?" She asks. "The mysterious, ultra-beautiful club president of Veritas, the paragon of sickly beautiful girls... something like that. Millennium's blooming flower... I'm sure you've heard of at least one of these."

"Erm, no, actually." I say, a bit awkward, as her pale purple eyes widen in surprise. "I haven't hung around Millennium much, sorry."

"Well, that's quite surprising. Fufu, fufufu." She giggles to herself. "Fufufufufufu..."

"Prez is getting carried away." Eimi says. "Sensei, take responsibility and get her back to normal."

"Ara? Why must you say it like that, Eimi?" The silver haired girl asks. "I'm not 'getting carried away'. I was only confirming some facts to verify that all is in order. Anyways-" She begins, getting a serious look on her face. "-, the other day, I was appointed the club president of the 'Paranormal Phenomena Investigation Club'. As for Veritas, the hacker group of which I originally belonged to, I have left Chii-chan in charge for the time being."

Chii-chan...? Wait, more importantly. "What does this Paranormal Investigation Club want with me?" I ask.

"I'm getting to that." Himari says. "Our club is a special organization created by the student council president of Millennium, Rio. Eimi, might I get you to explain?"

"We're a club under Seminar whose purpose is to track and research phenomena which are difficult to understand scientifically." The pink haired girl explains. "The club was created by Rio's orders, but up until now I was the only member. After all, we didn't really have any clear activities."

"I never thought I would suddenly be named the president of such a sketchy club that Rio made..." Himari says with a sigh. "A club with only one member, at that."

"Two members, including you, Club President Himari." Eimi adds.

"Yes, that's right. Eimi, who's growing very healthily, and me, a sickly, beautiful girl. I think we'll make a wonderful combo." Himari says with a small smile.

"By the way..." The pink haired girl begins. "Isn't it a little hot in here?"

"Not really...?" I all but ask, as Eimi picks something up.

"No, in fact, I'm shivering, so please put down that air conditioner remote, Eimi." Himari says, sternly. Eimi does so, then goes to grab her clothes. "Um, and please don't take off your clothes either." I quickly turn away. "What's... the zipper? What are you...? Never mind, I get it. Please do not do that."

"Tell me when she's clothed again." I say, still turned around.

"She is." Himari says, prompting me to turn back around.

"Back to my earlier question, whaddy'all need my help with?" I ask.

"Oh, that's right. Let's get started with that." Himari says. "You may or may not know this, but... I have long been at odds with Rio, the student council president of Millennium. While she is like an older sister trying to control everything, I am a copyleft believer, opposed to such control."
