User blog:AlexDoheny/Baphomet's Revenge - Day - 1

It’s September 1st.

Today marks a special and important event. Some consider it as disaster, some consider it otherwise. Some take it lightly, some prepared for this date, for various reasons. But, in the end of the day, whatever decisions you made today will affect your life in the following year.

That’s right, it’s the first day of school.

I am Alex, starting today I am on my second year in the Monster Girl City High School. A well-known high school located with Monster Girl City, built right after DOTR, to let monster integrate into human society.

It’s been decades since DOTR, monster has already integrated well into our society, you could see them everywhere, doing all kinds of job. A Witch nurse, Gremlin engineer, Succubus model, Anubis secretary etc. They could be a well-known celebrity, with a show casted with them, broadcasting right into your television. Your gym trainer, or your neighbor, or even, your family member.

“Mom, dad, I am going now.” I yelled at the doorstep, as I just finished tying my shoes, ready to go out.

“Take care, sweetie~ I hope you enjoy your first day of school.” My succubus mom said, peek out from the kitchen, while doing the dishes. You can even see her wings are flapping.

“Don’t die.” My dad, who simply shouted from the living room with a sarcastic and joking tone.

I give my dad and mom both a simple dry laugh and sweet reply respectively, then set out to my school. It’s about 15 minutes of walk from my home to school. Luckily I woke up early this morning, I can have my time to enjoy a nice walk in the park. It’s basically the fastest route to my school, as it set right in the middle between the residential area and the school. Sometimes I’d have a nice morning jog in here if I feel like to. Usually at time like this…

“Ayo, Alex! Whassup?” A werewolf appears from my behind, giving my back a light slap.

“Hi, Aunt Lana. I see you are having a morning jog as always.” She’s a neighbor of mine, a gym owner. She’s extremely sporty, and with that physical of a werewolf, she could rival with all human Olympics champion in the history. Her physical ability is stronger than most physical-orientated monsters thanks to the physical training she gotten into after immigrating to this world.

She’s a friend with my mom. Back in the day, she lured me with “free gym access” and tried to hook me up with her daughter – Luna. But her plan didn’t work out because Luna is more into people with outgoing personality. At this date, me and Luna are still friend. And I still get to use Aunt Lana’s gym room. Win-win, I supposed?

“Hey.” Here comes Luna. She’s slightly smaller than her mother. A short hair with grey color inherited from her mother. “Can’t believe the summer break was that short, I almost couldn’t finish my summer project.”

“That wouldn’t happen if you didn’t spend most of your time playing during the holiday.” I mocked her. She actually came for my help to finish her project in the LAST DAY of summer break, and it seriously pushed my limit as a human to one extreme. 20-page-worth of thesis, all done in one noon. Luckily physical education is kind of related to my major. That project is going to get an A+ for sure.

“Come on! Fun comes first! You are no fun.” She growls, and glare at me like how does this dude live off without any fun.

“This is why I finish my work first, so I can have fun without having worries.” I giggled a bit to her response. She keeps growling at me.

“Ight you two have fun, Imma continue my jog.” Lana cut off our ‘argument’, then ‘jog’ away with a speed of bicycle and left a trail of smoke behind her.

Monster ability, damn, it sure is something.

“So, got any plan for this coming school year?” I ask Luna.

“Well.” She hesitates, obviously she didn’t think about it, not even a slightest. “Have fun, lots of fun. Actually, I think I might join the school sports team. How about you?”

“Me? I am going to join the science club, in fact I wanna be the president of the club. And at the same time, apply for the SSMTI (State Science, Magic and Technology Innovation event) for this year. I won the competition last year, and I want to do it again.” Actually, I have been planning to do this during my freshman year. As you can tell, I love science, partially thanks to my dad for showing all kinds of crazy stuff he worked on during my childhood. He is an engineer, biological engineer to be exact. A senior engineer and project leader in a Company. He always got interesting stuff to work on.

After a bit of chatting while walking in the park, me and Luna both walk through the park and arrive to our high school. We separate and head to our own locker, put down our stuff and attend the first day assembly in the assembly hall.

The lady giving everyone speech on the stage, is the principal of this school, Sophia Rin, a Hakutaku. Undoubtedly she is the best person (or monster?) to be the principal for this school, not only because of her racial advantages, but also her method on managing the school. She’s definitely not someone you feel distant with when you talk to, however…

“Man… how long is she gonna go on with her speech…” As I can hear the complaints from adjacent student, and my legs started getting numbed. Ms Rin tends to talk a lot, it’s been 30 minutes and still going, very annoying I must say.

After another 15 minutes, we finally get to dismiss and return to our classroom, meeting our class teacher, and most importantly, our classmates. The roster is usually same as last year, consisted with half male and half monster. Sometimes you get transfer student to join your class. However, our class don’t have transfer student, but I have heard that the other classes got some. Our class teacher did a routine introduction, then collect our summer project.

When the routine activity is over, student get to hang around freely. Some would meet their friend; some would just go straight to home. For freshman, they would walk around the school to familiarize the place. But the spotlight of this session, is the club showcase event. If interested, student can join the club they want.

Every club got their own studio, for instance, music club can use the music room as their studio. And science club has no difference either, their club studio is in the general laboratory. I go straight to the lab and found Smith Anderson himself – your stereotype professor looking science teacher, teacher-in-charge for science club, also my Biology class teacher. Alongside with some other student browsing the works done by the previous member of science club.

“Greetings, Mr. Anderson.” I walk up to him, greets him. “Anne left you hanging in the room, I see?”

Anne is a Dark Mage and ex-president of the science club from last year. She’s a senior, two years ahead of me. From what I remember about her, is that she got a really aggressive personality and into teasing people. Every members of the club were teased by her for at least once, me included. Perhaps this is her way to find a partner. I dunno, monster psychology isn’t my thing.

“Well, she’s on her final year now, she wants to focus on study and prepare for the University entrance examination. If anything happen she said you can handle it.” Mr. Anderson’s reply. “Anyway, since you are here let me tell you the procedure for club committee formation. Every year we renew our committee by electing club members. Usually, club members can be elected via self-recommendation or recommendation from other members. If more than one member is recommended for the same position, the club will hold a meeting with all the members and vote for it.”

And usually, club committee renewal would go smoothly as most members have prior agreement. This year we should have Mark, a classmate of mine, as secretary. Rosalina, a Danuki, picking the treasurer position. Juno, a gremlin, as PR officer. And few other as the committee member.

“Well then, if you have no question regarding to the committee renewal, why don’t you help me out with the showcase?” Mr. Anderson ask for my assistance, and for what reason should I turn down the request? I am going to be the president of science club, of course I am staying for help.

“Hello Mr. Anderson~” Three voices synced perfectly, it’s Mark, Rosalina and Juno.

“You folks are here, finally. Come here and help me out, can’t do this with me and Mr. Anderson alone.” I ask three of them for help, to introduce the club. Like, all the crazy stuff we did for the club. Last year, we even almost blew up the laboratory. That incident alone made the register count blow up. So many student going for it, it was tiring.

Lunch time is almost there and we are about to pack things up, when we were assuming no more student coming, three little girls come in and look around – a Familiar, a Witch and a Baphomet. For some reason, an eerie feeling coming from them, especially the Baphomet, I feel like I have seen her before. She got white furry paws and tails, white hair with short twin-tails, black horn curved inward, black formal jacket, grey shirt, a light grey bow-tie with a goat skull in the middle on her neck, black skirt and thigh-highs. (Seriously tho, how does she wear that thigh-highs with goat legs like that?) As expected from a Baphomet, she’s really short. Hell, her head (excluding the horns) could barely reach my shoulder.

While her other two companions are bother my other members, the Baphomet come at me, point to the wrist-band looking device I made and ask: “This thing looks interesting, mind telling me about it?”

The device she’s pointing at, is my innovation that won the SSMTI competition. It’s basically a power bank that recharges by absorbing the mana leaked from your body. Its function is pretty much same as mana cage, but repurposed as personal usage only. And making it into wrist-band improved its portability. This simple idea yet provides a wide range of usage with better convenience is what made it won the competition.

In fact, my dad personally asked me to cooperate with his company and make this innovation into a product after the competition. The product is now in design phrase and will be ready for manufacture. Thanks to that, I have an increased allowance for this coming year.

After hearing my introduction, the Baphomet left the laboratory alongside with the other two. After that, the whole science club crew pack everything up and go out for lunch together.

Now, we are at the shopping mall next to the school, about 10 minutes of walk. We found a fast food restaurant and sit down for a rest. Mr. Anderson insisted in buying lunch for us, as in appreciation for helping science club out.

“Well boys and girls, the science club is appreciated for your service in the coming year. Especially you Alex.” Mr. Anderson says.

“Yeah! You are going to participle in the next SSMTI competition right? Think we can join as a group together?” Mark says in excitement.

“Mind if I join as well? As a member of Danuki family member, I can provide you logistic assistance and look for stuff you’d need for the project.” Rosalina says proudly.

“Count me in, you’ll need a technician for this.” Juno, as expected from her sunshine personality, talk her mind out right away.

“Well uhhhh…” I scratch the back of my head. To be honest, I feel like it’d be hard to decline them all, I can try it in a group this time I assume. “Sure, tho I am still thinking of what to do for SSMTI this year.”

“Oh yeah!” The three of them yell in excitement, synced. It started getting me to wonder if they are dating each other. Having two girlfriends might sound weird in human culture, but it’s completely normal in monster culture. Mostly because monsters dominate the society as majority. According to monster history, monsters were unable to give birth to male children, until a few decades ago.

Newly born male children are mostly human instead of incubus, surprisingly. Human become incubus when certain amount of demonic energy is accumulated within their body. And human born from monster tend to have better resilient to demonic energy. One major observation for said phenomenon is that our world is now filled with high amount of demonic energy, yet human remain unchanged under such environment.

Although, incubization can occur easily when one exposed to or consumed abnormally high amount of demonic energy, commonly found when a human and monster were joined together. Incubization only trigger if a human SE have resonance with a monster DE.

Mark seems to be surprisingly energized compare to last year, perhaps he has found someone to be his partner. Good for him.

With us finishing our lunch, everyone heads back to their home.

I open up the door and find my mom and dad watching TV in the living room.

“You two are having day-off today?” I ask both of my mom and dad.

“Yeah, I just finished a film shooting not long ago and get to take a week-off.” My mom respond.

She’s a succubus, immigrated from the other world. An actor and a model.

“This weekend I am going to meet my sisters and have a reunion party, I am planning to bring you and dad to it if you two were free that day. They are also going to bring their family too! Some of them raised a fine daughter, maybe you can find yourself a partner at the same time!” My mom speaks with joy. “One of them is coming all over from Lescatie!”

“Mom, I understand you are worrying about me finding a girlfriend. But this kind of business cannot be rushed, it takes time to find what’s best for you.” I go to the fridge, grab myself a nice cold sweet tea and grab a seat on the sofa.

“Heh, back in the day your mom just found someone that interest her and violate them at the point. This is how I meet your mom anyway.” My dad speaks in sarcasm; mom can be seen blushing really hard.

“Huh? You never told me about it.” I said.

“Well well well… where should I start… It all happened at the DOTR. Portals opened everywhere, monsters were rushing in, attack every woman on sight, violate every man they found. People were running away from monsters, me included. I was slow and… your mom captured me, teared open my cloth and straight violated me on the spot.” Dad tells the tale like it happened yesterday.

Mom is giggling silly, and continue the tale: “Yeah, I was part of the invasion army at that time. Hehehe~”

“Woah, that’s something I really don’t know about. Mom, you were a solider back in the days?” I am shocked to found that my mom used to be part of the army.

“Lescatie dark knight, protector of the people. I still have the armor set in my room.”

“I thought it was your film costume or something, mom.” I am shocked again.

My dad busted a laughter. “You totally should see your mom in action, son. It’s amazing.”

“S-stop it…” My mom is embarrassed.

“Should’ve ask you to train me when I was a kid.” I said that jokingly.

“Too bad son, her schedule was filled with my appointments.” My dad jokes on me and teases mom at the same time. Cheeky bastard.

“So uhh… why did you pick my dad anyway, mom?” Since it’s in the topic, I am also interested in how monster pick their preferred partner.

“Hoho~ Honey was looking cute and he’s totally my type, that’s why~” She giggles, while giving me a simple answer.

My dad added something to her statement: “I was only 15 years old by the way.”

A single “bruh” is the only response I can give.

“We-well! In my defense, 15 years old is old enough to be an adult in my world!” Mom hastily respond.

15 years old huh? I guess their world is similar to our world back in medieval age. It sounds like some fantasy RPG world to be honest.

“That’s a lot of information to digest with, Imma head back to my room and prepare for next school day. You two have fun.” I grab another bottle of cold sweet tea and head back to my room.

My room is something you’d expect from a normal teen, a nerdy one to be exact. Except I don’t own any console, a computer is all I need, PC master race baby.

I look up the WonderBoard, an imageboard run by a Cheshire cat, full of funny and interesting shit. I lurk most of the time, because I just wanna checking out some internet news and look for stuff to kill time. Actually talking in the board might mess up my mind. Shits are always wild, mostly because the owner is a Cheshire cat. People from Wonderland are always wild, their party is always lit. Luna got some friends from Wonderland, last time she dragged me into their party, it was too exciting for my mentality. I was just glad that it didn’t turn into a huge gangbang when I was there.

Next, I look up BaphyNet, the most popular social media and wildly used by people from all over the world, including the other world. As the name stated, BaphyNet, named after the race called Baphomet, is established and run by Sabbath. It was created by a branch call Momonika Sabbath, then they got bored and threw everything to Dominia Sabbath – The largest Sabbath branch in this world.

Dominia’s is no joke, their technological power is the largest in this world. The first group of people that infused science with magic, the greatest achievement of this integrated society, it is what formed the current society. Dominia’s is also responsible for opening the portal during DOTR, filling the world with DE.

My father’s company is partially funded by them. They also got the best institute in this world. To be honest, I want to enroll into their institute after graduation. To study, to create, to achieve.

While browsing BaphyNet, I look into my friends’ page. Looks like he shared something from other student in our school. Oh, it’s about the transfer student from other class. I click into the post, and find a picture of the transfer student, it’s a Familiar, a Witch, and a Baphomet…

Wait… Isn’t it the Baphomet that ask me to introduce my innovation?

The more I look into the post, the more I know about this Baphomet…

“Alicia Dominia, the daughter of head of Dominia Sabbath.”

She transferred into our school? Why is that? For monster like her, she should be studying in better school. So I decided to look into her info. Simply putting her name in the search bar and enter. The first result that catches my eyes, isn’t her profile, but the SSMTI website. Why is the SSMTI website in the search result?

I clicked into the link, and it shows me the competition result.

“1st Runner up, Alicia Dominia.”

Shit! No wonder why I got that eerie feeling from her, the sense of Déjà vu. I know her! She was also in the competition too! Yup, she was also in the competition! I remember that eerie feeling when I was on the stage. It felt like someone was staring at me with “intentions”.

Crap, is she onto me or something!? I am kind of panicking right now, and somehow, excited. Calm down, Alex. There isn’t enough information to make conclusion, don’t jump into the conclusion too soon without any clear evidence. Maybe you’ll get to know tomorrow.

“Son~ It’s dinner time~” Mom knock on my door. Her voice bring me back to reality from my wild imagination.

No point worrying for now, let’s go grab the dinner and get ready for tomorrow, maybe my questions will be answered on that day.
