We then arrived at the library and it was a sight of bookcases on every side of the wall and even the wall for the spiral staircase is also bookcases. I didn't realise that I was left by Tiara and Rosetta while they stopped, I see Tiara is currently talking with a green haired-girl. While I approached them, I look up at the second floor to find a girl who's currently got bitten by a book. I just shrugged it off and heads toward them.
"Hey guys, what's going on?" I said to them while the green haired-girl looked at me with surprise
"H-how could a boy allowed to be in this academy?" She said to Rosetta while Rosetta just sighed
"Long story short, He did something that impressed the Director and she wanted him to attend in this academy" Rosetta explained
"Yeah, that's right! He makes the crystal shine like a rainbow!" Tiara continued Rosetta explanation
"H-heh!? That's should be the first in history that someone did that!" The green haired-girl shouted getting few other students attention
"I don't think we are allowed to shout in the library." I scratch my head
"Anyway, my name is Teki RinKen, and you are?" I offered my hand to her
"My name is Lynette, Nice to meet you too Teki-san." While she bowed and ignoring my hand. Yikes.
Tiara then looked around the place, "At any rate, what an amazing number of books..." Lynette then goes up to Tiara with excitement
"That is right! This private library is amazing!" She said as her eyes is glowing with excitement and surprising both me and Tiara
"To the point that some people came just to find books from faraway lands!" She continued
"You really like books, huh?" Tiara said as she sweatdropped
"I really, really love stories." Lynette said as she clasps her hand together
"But, it's all kinda difficult-looking books only..." Tiara said as she took one of the books on the desk and I reckon that the stack of books is the books that Lynette going to read. Tiara then opens the book and a piece of paper fell off from the book. I then take it and we read it
"Come, let us row on, toward the True Ocean named "Love"-" Before we can finish it. Lynette immediately took the paper.
"This is wrong! This is wrong!! Please forget about it, please don't mind it, erase it from your memory!" Lynette said as Tiara's face was clueless and I know what that means and hide my laugh.
"Well then, Lynette. We gonna continue our tour so are you going to join us?" Rosetta asked Lynette
"No, I still need to read some books." Lynette answered
"Well, that's unfortunate. Then, see you at the dorm." We leave the library and continue our tour of the academy.
-----------------------------------------------
We then check out other class. Like, basic classroom, chemistry and other class. According to Rosetta, the students are free to decide which ones they want to take and working together with your units members are important. Like I have any!
We then arrived at the academy grounds where the students can do outdoor activities like sports and stuff like that. I looked around the grounds all I can see is just so many flying disc that currently used by the students
"They're flying!" Tiara said with admiration
"Those discs are enchanted with magic, so they can actually float." Rosetta responded.
"How do you control it." Tiara asked Rosetta
"The basic is to move the centre of gravity but, it is difficult to handle." Rosetta responded as we see two-disc got hit into each other and the students who are controlling the discs start to argue and they hit one of the discs and then fell.
"Wait, is she going to be alright." I asked Rosetta.
"She should, after all. There's a teacher in each of the field." She respond and I sighed with relief
"Come on, our teammate is this way." She said to Tiara while I followed them behind. then we arrived at another field
"There they are." Rosetta said
"Units member?" Tiara ask Rosetta
"Yes." We then stop as we watch the students playing dodgeball. While I watch them I see a blonde-haired girl just dodge the ball-
"The one dodging is the blonde girl, Lavie." Rosetta said. Did she just read my mind?
"The one catching is Ashley." I then looked at the purple-haired girl. She looks very athletic
"And with Tiara Joining, we're a 5-person unit." Rosetta said
"Both of them are so skillful." Tiara said as we continued to watch the match. I then see Ashley running up to a girl, when she about to throw the ball she makes a pass to the side giving it to Lavie and she throws it to the girl, the girl didn't have time to dodge it. Poor girl.
The teacher then uses her whistle to end the match, "15 to 7, game set." The teacher said. Then Ashley and Lavie team win, Tiara clapped her hands as Ashley and Lavie came up to us.
"You came to watch us?" Ashley ask Rosetta
"Yes, congratulations."
"Amazing right!? That last super shot!" Lavie said excitedly
"it's because I give you a good pass." Ashley said to Lavie
"No. no. no. If it's that kind of pass, even Tom can do it." Lavie answered. Who's Tom?
"Anyway, let me introduce you. The new transfer student who will be joining our unit..." Rosetta said to them
"Tiara. Nice to meet you." Tiara goes beside Rosetta.
"I'm Ashley" Ashley introduce herself.
"I'm Lavie. The academy's ace." Continued by Lavie introducing herself. When I'm about to introduce myself I got cut off by Ashley
"Self-declare, tho- wait, our unit!?" She said surprised.
"You're okay with it?" Lavie asked Tiara
"Yes, please." Tiara answered
"Yay! I super love you!" Lavie immediately hugs Tiara surprising me and Rosetta. Why I got a tingle of jealousy?
"I'm thankful. It's a relief that you seem perceptive, unlike a certain someone." Ashley said. Lavie stops hugging Tiara and goes up to Ashley
"That certain someone- are you talking about me!? And what the heck is 'perceptive'!?" Lavie said with frustration. Seriously, you don't know about that?
"Don't tell me you don't know about?" Ashley said with sarcasm tone
"Eh... I know at least that much! Perceptive right? Perceptive! To put it simply... In other words..." Lavie trailed off as she thinks what is perceptive. Then she immediately perked up.
"It's the opposite of 'un-perceptive'!" While they arguing, I see Tiara looked at me and then speaks up
"Um... This is also Teki RinKen. Also a new student in the academy." Ashley and Lavie looked at me and then surprised
"A boy!?"
"Hello, my name is Teki RinKen. Nice to meet you, Ashley and Lavie." I bowed down. Thank you Tiara to not forget about me.
"Is he going to be in our unit too?" Lavie asked Rosetta while she shook her head
"No, I will be in a different unit. Well, not really a unit but I just tag along with them to go around campus." I said to Lavie while she looked disappointed
"I never knew they will enroll a boy in the academy." Ashley said
"I just did something that impressed the director so she wants to enroll me in here." I responded
"That's it! as a sign of friendship, I'll introduce you to my friends too. Teki-kun! Tiara-chan!" Lavie said while I just looked away when she called me "Teki-kun". Honestly, I have never been called that before.
"-chan!?" Rosetta said surprised
-----------------------------------------------
We then arrived at a rabbit hutch and we then see two rabbits in there, one is brown coloured and the other one is white coloured. Tiara immediately goes to the hutch and then crouch to get a closer look at the rabbits
"So cute~" Tiara said as she touches her cheeks with both hands. I then took my phone and takes a picture of her quietly
"Right, right? Their names are Tom and Sherry." Lavie said to Tiara. So that is Tom... Which one?
"Both are females though." Ashley continued. Eh?
"Eh!? Is that weird?" Lavie said to Ashley
"Well maybe, I only know a cat named Tom and it's a male." I said to Lavie
"Heh... I want to meet him!" Lavie said excitedly
"Eh... If I got time." I said. It's from a cartoon though how should I meet both of them. We then continued to watch the rabbits
"They get along really well." Tiara pointed out as the white rabbit give a leaf to the brown rabbit.
"They've been together since they're young after all." Lavie said
"They're childhood friends." Ashley continued and Tiara gets up and turns around to us
"Same as me and Rosetta." Tiara said to us. So they're childhood friends.
"Really?" Lavie asked with surprised
"Today is the first time we've met in a long time." Tiara responded
"2 years..." Tiara said and she try to remember what Rosetta said
"3 months and 14 days ago." Me and Rosetta said. Ashley and Lavie was surprised by what we said and Rosetta just looked at me also surprised
"I just remembered what you said." I said to Rosetta and she shrugged it off
"Well then, we going to continue looking around the academy. You guys want to join us?" Rosetta asked Lavie and Ashley
"I would like to but we gonna change and all." Ashley said
"Yeah, that's right." Lavie continued
"Well then, see you both at the dorm." Rosetta said and we continue our journey
-----------------------------------------------
(Tiara's POV)
We then stopped at an area where there are many targets and I see a girl with a knife. She then throws the knife in the air and then she uses her hand to whistle, the knife then starts to shaking and duplicate itself and hits a few targets at once.
"it's not good if you can't hit a lot of bullseyes at once." Rose-chan said to us
"It somehow looks fun!" I said to her
"I-is it really?" Teki worriedly said
We then continued to see another class where we see a girl covered in metal and a teacher just hit her in the back.
"Very good!" the teacher said as the girl morphed back into her regular self.
"Next!" The teacher then goes to another girl, the girl then uses her magic to cover herself in metal. The teacher then hit her in the back but the metal shattered.
"W-what is this class?" Teki said to Rosetta
"It's the Hardening Magic class." Rosetta said
"It looks difficult, huh?" I said as we left the class to continue to see the others
We arrived at a pool then we see a girl currently using it but we immediately get soaked in water because she use magic to enhance her swimming and it leaving a huge trail of water behind her
"This is the pool..." Rose-chan said to us
"Yeah... we get it..." Teki and I said to her
We arrived at another area where it has targets but now it's only 3 of them.
I see an arrow fly but it didn't hit the target, "So close!" I said
"That's a magical arrow. It's pretty difficult, you know?" Rose-chan said to us
"It's said that not only you need magical and concentration ability, but physical constitution and strength are also important." Rose-chan continued
"It might be impossible for me..." I responded and I see Teki scratch his nape.
"Yeah, maybe I can't do this with ease." Teki said and Rose-chan just shake her head
"You can do it with ease, with your magic it should be easy. But, for handling and aiming It might be hard." Rose-chan said as Teki nodded
We continue to watch as a girl currently aiming her crossbow at one of the targets. When she currently aiming she sneeze as the arrow almost hit near us
"Hey, isn't it dangerous being this near?" I asked Rose-chan.
"It's fine. There's an anti-flame barrier after all." Rose-chan said. Thank Flora. Wait a second
"If the magical arrow hits the target-" Before Rose-chan finished her sentence Teki interrupted
"What do you mean about 'flame'?" Teki said as an arrow hits the target. and the arrow exploded
"GAH!?"
(Teki's POV)
"It can actually explode." Rosetta said. So that's what she meant about flame. I see Tiara was so surprised because of this
"If it hits a Magical Monster, then it can be purified in one shot." Rosetta continued. There's a magical monster in this world? I don't think I could defend myself. I even don't know how to use magic!?
"Tiara..?" Rosetta said. I look over to Tiara then she fainted
"What's wrong. Tiara!" Rosetta leaning down to check on her. What do you mean "What's wrong?" she literally fainted!
"Then what should we do?" I asked her
"Let's bring her to a lounge to rest her up." Rosetta said as she stands up
"I'm gonna call the teacher. Wait a momen-" I grab her hand to stop her from going
"You grab her stuff and I will carry her, Let's take her to the academy lounge." I said as I carry Tiara bridal style. I see Rosetta was flustered because of this but I shrugged it off and head to the lounge.
