Macaron unwillingly flew to her.
"You beca more good looking."
I ignored him since he won’t stop again from nagging , "How did your feathers change anyway?"
"I guess you evolved again. Did you sohow acquire so skills also?"
"Good job! Do you want so cream puffs?"
When he said that, I can see him gulping down.
"Let’s go to a bakery shop. I’m craving for cream puffs anyway."
The onlookers were staring at them with their mouth wide eyed open. The girl was beautiful but the bird on her shoulder was more eye catching. Just by looking at them, it felt like she was a goddess who descended with her spirit animal. Remillia who doesn’t know what’s happening around them just continued walking and listening to Macaron’s adventures.
~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~
It was already three in the afternoon when she went back to the Academy. She let Macaron fly first in her dorm since a certain @sshole forced her to go straight to their club room when Rex threatened her to tell that she was the one who lead Arkus to end up in jail.
She slamd the door open and saw them watching the news. When they heard the door open, all eyes landed on her and was imdiately greeted by endless questions. The only ones who didn’t question are Cypher and Edge. Obviously Edge won’t question since we are not that close yet but I was curious about Cypher. It’s as if he knew where I went already and didn’t bother asking, but I brushed it off thinking that Cypher was respectful as always.
I ignored the others as I pushed Rex out of my favorite sofa and laid there. He fell down with a loud thud.
"Hey! I was laying there and you just pushed out of the sofa?"
"This is my usual spot. Also, change our group chat, it’s cringey as hell."
"Witch."
"@sshole."
Angela and Whitney continued to ask her questions. She thought she would be annoyed by their rants but it sounded like lullaby to her ears. In the end, she only fell asleep.
The two girls can’t believe that Remillia just slept like that!
"What the- Did she really sleep?"
Angela poked Remillia’s cheeks a couple of tis before confirming that she is indeed asleep.
"Does our voice sound that angelic to her?"
Christian answered them, "No, it sounds like a banshee especially when you’re excited."
Whitney threw a pillow at him.
Christian just laughed while hugging the pillow.
"I was just kidding haha. But seriously, Remillia is really amazing."
"She can even single handedly defeat a rogue by herself."
"Truly amazing."
"She’s a witch."
Cypher only stared at Remillia, his gaze affectionate. Only Christian was the only one again who noticed his expression shift.
’He’s really in love! But... when and how?’
He can’t help but stare at Remillia’s face.
anwhile, Remillia woke up again when she felt soone was staring really hard at her. This intuition attribute of hers is really annoying.
With her eyes remained closed, she coldly questioned Christian.
"Christian, is there sothing wrong with my face?"
Christian jolted up and unconsciously straightened his back.
"N-Nothing’s wrong. I was just thinking about sothing."
"Then don’t stare. It’s rude."
"R-right. Sorry."
Christian heaved a sigh of relief. He thought it was already over when he felt a chill, he saw Cypher glaring at him.
’I unconsciously stared at her! Heck, she’s not my type. I swear!’
He wanted to explain but it would just be awkward so he just played with his phone head down.
Seeing that Remillia seems to be awake, the girls probe her again. Remillia was going to ignore them again when she felt that she’s fully awake now and cannot go back to sleep. With a sigh, Remillia frustratingly sat down and looked at them seriously.
"I was the one who gave the authorities evidences that Arkus Maguire is a murderer among with other activities."
They seed to be unsatisfied with my answer as they questioned again.
"How did you get those evidences?"
"Were you also the one who discovered the dead bodies?"
I only answered them with, "Just watch the news and any minute now the history about the Spire of the Damned is about to change."
"But we want to hear it from-"
Right after I said that, the channel suddenly changed and showed the footage of Arkus being dragged into jail. Edge picked the remote then changed the channel but every channel he goes to always show the sa news story. In the end, he just got annoyed and shut it off.
I don’t really care if the police or agents will claim that they’re the one who solved the case, I will still be given popularity points even though I anonymously sent the emails. Also, the higher-ups must be already tracking my IP address. Good thing I used the system’s features; Cyber Sky when I sent those emails. I don’t want to be in the spotlight yet, it’s too much of a hassle.
"I’ll go now, I still have to rest up for our combat exam tomorrow. Good luck to us," before standing up and heading out of the door.
Cypher also stood up and followed .
"I’ll go with you since I’m also tired."
Since the others only waited for to go there, they went and joined us also.
" too!"
"Sa."
"Let’s go."
The way to the dorm was quite noisy and fun. We would talk about random stuffs forgetting for a mont that the combat exam will be tomorrow. The first to step out of the elevator were and Cypher since their dorms are higher than us. Before the elevator closed, Rex playfully shouted at them, "No hard feelings tomorrow! Especially you, witch! I’ll kick your ass of the way outside the arena!"
I just laughed at him before shrugging my shoulder.
"@sshole like always haha."
On the way to our room, I was so engrossed talking about him how good the food are in the restaurants of Monfort. The whole ti, he only nods and laughs with but most of the ti, he would just stare at but I didn’t notice his stares when he suddenly cut off.
"Oh! I forgot to tell them that we should try their Mistfall Mochi Matcha Ice Cream at Sky Cream’s Shop. Have any of you went there already? If not then-"
"Remi."
"Why?"
He pointed sothing on the opposite side of the dorm hall. I looked at what he’s pointing but didn’t see anything.
"Don’t tell ... Are you seeing sothing that ordinary people don’t see?"
He chuckled and ruffled my hair.
"Silly, we already passed through our rooms."
I looked at the dorm numbers on the doors.
"Oh, hehe, sorry. Why didn’t you stop ? I got caught up just by ntioning desserts."
"...You look so beautiful today..."
Cypher whispered sothing but I was so engrossed thinking about the desserts I’ve tasted.
"Huh? Are you saying sothing?"
"I said, do you like desserts that much?"
"Well I mostly haven’t tried them that’s why I’m living my life to the fullest."
It’s true. All I ate when I was in my real world was tons and tons of cup noodles just to finish submitting my report work. D@mn that life of hers.
’Should I just not go back to my real world? I’m starting to like the foods here more.’
"Remi."
"What?"
He grabbed my hand and pulled towards him as we went back to our rooms.
"You’re spacing out again."
"I was just thinking about when will be the date in eating ice cream at Monfort."
"You should rest now."
We stopped at the front of our doors.
"Okay. Goodnight then."
"Night, Remi."
~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~
Monday. The combat exams starts at 10 AM. One day before the start of combat exam, Glacial Sphere was open to everyone. Parents, Heroes, Guild mbers that scout and assess potential students, CEO’s, assassins, rcenaries, and even ordinary people are allowed to watch.
Now here’s the catch, before the clock will struck at 10 AM, every cadets can choose to send their votes thru their smart watch on who will participate. The top two most votes will then spar in the ring. Of course, they can only vote for up to two tis while you can choose who to fight with for only one ti. The rest will be systematically arranged depending on your rank.
I haven’t seen the arena yet but as I described in my ex-novel, the ring on where they will spar is about the size of a football stadium and it can accommodate at least 75,000 people!
I looked at the ti, it was still 7:23 AM. I was feeling bored that the arena hasn’t started yet, She’s a little bit shy to et up with the group since everyone of them are eting with their family.
’I never knew that I was this lonely.’
She sensed the sa feeling again when she was sucked into this world. She was busy having sentintal thoughts when Macaron flew up to her shoulder.
