Reincarnate: My Rival

Chapter Eleven: Hello Heroine

The guard opened the gate, "Please enjoy the tea party." He said as he turn around and left.

And once again, I was awestruck by the awesome view of the garden.

The garden is filled with flowers (obviously). Ranging from red and pink roses to tulips of different colors.

But setting those things aside, there are dozens of tables and chairs with umbrellas that are scattered in the area. In the middle of the garden is a band playing classical music. While on the right side there is a buffet table filled with food and beverages.

"The three of us will search for our seats while the six of you find the headmaster." Grandma Jill said as she started to look around.

Seven nodded, "You can count on us." He said as the six parted ways.

"Come on Amber. Hold on to your Venus nee-san. I don't want you getting lost." She smiled as she hold my little hand.

I frowned.

While searching for our seats, countless of guests are looking at our way. More specifically, me. Three beautiful girls that are about the same age as Venus, suddenly surrounded us.

"Venus Crystle! Why didn't you tell us that you're already married and have a daughter?!" The leader of the group shouted as she gave Venus a glare.

I giggled, "Excuse me, but i'm not her daughter."

The three stopped before looking at each other, "She's so cute!" The three shouted.

"Oh my! Look at her flwaless, chubby cheeks!"

"Her voice is so squeaky and cute!"

"She's like a living doll!"

I let out an awkward laugh before hiding behind Venus-sama, "Did you girls know that Venus nee-san has a boyfriend?"

"What?!" The three shouted as they turn their attention now towards her.

"Why didn't you tell us?!"

I snickered as I slowly back away from their line of view. I tried searching for Grandma Jill but because there are too many guests walking around, I suddenly get lost thanks to my small height. I was easily swallowed by the crowd.

I shrugged, "Oh well, better find the headmaster on the way."

While walking, I passed by the buffet table. My stomach suddenly grumbled and I couldn't help but crave the cookie that I could see from down here.

I stopped and tried to reach for a cookie. Well, 'tried'. Because of my height I couldn't reach the top of the table.

"Do you want a cookie little girl?"

I turned and looked at the girl in front of me.

She looks awfully familiar with her long green hair. Large blue eyes. Kind and friendly aura.

If i'm not mistaken.

"There you are Meadow! I thought you left the party already. Oh! Who's this cute girl?"

Meadow Pureheart! The otome game's heroine!

Meadow smiled shyly, "I don't know her. I'm only helping her get her snack."

I couldn't help but curse inwardly. Why did I forget that the headmaster's birthday is the scene where the heroine will meet the six?

If I still remember it correctly. There is a scene where the tea party is suddenly invaded with assassins trying to kill the six leaders. Coincidentally, the heroine was near the scene, being able to help them and show her unique prowess. But

Meadow's friend smiled as she squatted before helding out her hand, "Hello. My name is Andromeda Evergreen. You can call me Andrea."

Andromeda Evegreen. The heroine's bestfriend. Short white hair and greyish-violet eyes.

"My name is..."

I stop for a second to think of a good fake name.

"Thea."

"Well Thea, where are your guardians? Are you lost?"

I shook my head, "No. I'm just looking for the headmaster."

I suddenly thought of a good idea.

"By any chance, do you know where he is?"

Andromeda stayed silent and only Meadow nodded her head.

My eyes instantly lit up, "Really?! Can you take me to where he is?"

Meadow stayed silent, "Uhm... I don't know."

"Please." I said in ny most squeaky and cute voice as I clasp my hands and looked at Meadow pleadingly.

Meadow suddenly turned stiff. After a few seconds she let out a smile, "Okay follow me."
