After completing the entrance ceremony, campus tours and classes overview, the first day of school comes to an end. Well, I guess this is normal for the first day.
Seem like I don't really have to worry about getting lost here too. Students will be moving around the campus via the use of transfer magic circles so the possibility of getting lost is low unless you wander into some restricted area. Though, being the protagonist that he is, Iori will have to get lost once in a while in order to meet the heroines. Rather, since I have a heroine that I want to cheer for no matter what, I will have him lost his way a little here.
Well, there's a thing I found out by talking with a lot of people. It seems like I exude the hard to approach air around me. Apparently, my appearance and mannerism are a little too liberal.
"Then c'ya later, Nicoletta-san, Max-kun, Juliana-san."
I have become able to talk normally with Nicoletta-san and Max-kun but seem like Juliana-san is still being reserved around me. Well, according to my Japanese person experience she will warm up to me if I talk to her a little more. In case of a hesitant person like Juliana-san once we can be comfortable around each other I think we will be able to develop a deep relationship with each other. This is the world of Magiero though, so I don't know whether this will work out or not.
After I said my farewell, I join up with Ludi at the sakura road which is the hotspot for events to happen.
"Isn't this just the first day.... . Aren't you too fast to get along with other people?"
I don't know if it is because there's no one else besides Claris-san who come to pick us up but Ludi already dropped her act. I don't know whether she is praising me, sulking or just being envious so I reply with some vague answer.
"It's still only on the greeting phase, I do want to get along with them better. Well, for now, my goal is to get all the contact information of everyone in the class."
It would be convenient to have their contact info when something happens. When there's a school festival I would end up being nominated as the staff though, it could be used to easily contact everyone after all. No, since there is a function for group message I should create a message group for our class...... Nah, there will always be someone who absolutely does not want to tell me their contact info, should I settle for a bulletin board instead then?
"It looks difficult to me, you know...... I wonder if I can someone I can trust......"
Ludi looked timid.... . Come to think of it, her trust was betrayed by that elf guy(Forgot his name) from before.
"Hey hey, I trust you, you know Ludi."
"I know that... I trust you too. I'm talking about other people besides you."
Hmm, then should I get cozy with other trustworthy heroine and introduce them to her?. No, if memory serves me right, although limited to female students, Ludi would still be able to make friends. Moreover, besides the first year students, she already met Mizumori-sempai too. At present, the number of trustworthy people around her is not zero.
When we arrive at the house, we were greeted by the maids(Elf girl) Ludi brought along. It seems like Marino-san and Nee-san still have some work to do at the academy.
I change into an easy to move in clothes and prepare the stuff for tomorrow. When I gaze at the clear sky from the window, I felt it would be a waste to not go out so I leave the house a little earlier than planned.
I climb up the steep slope and run to the back of the waterfall. Sempai was not there. I turn my back and head toward the running course.
How much have I run I wonder? I started to get tired so I was thinking about heading back to train at the waterfall, then I saw sempai doing practice swing for her naginata. In order not to get into her way I move a little away and start training my third and fourth hands.
"How was your first day?"
After we finished our training, sempai called out to me when we sat down on the stole bench while she brushes the hair that stuck to her skin and wipes off her sweat with the towel.
"Well...... I ended up late."
"Oi oi, did you sleep in?"
"No no, I was stuck helping people. If there is a troubled person in front of you, sempai would help too, right."
If it's a girl then I would be even more eager to help but unfortunately, it was an old man this time.
Sempai put her hand under her chin and nod
"That's not necessarily true though."
"You will definitely help, sempai. You already helped me a lot, right?"
Sempai's sense of justice is considered high even among the heroines of Magiero. She is a splendid knight(heroine) no matter how you look at her.
"But I was really surprised, doesn't the academy has too many facilities?"
First Magic Practice Hall, Second Magic Practice Hall, Third Magic Practice Hall, First Gymnasium, Second Gymnasium, First Martial Art Stadium, Second Martial Art Stadium, Third Martial Art Stadium and an Amphitheatre that can accommodate the entire student of the academy. Furthermore, there are three academy featured dungeons and countless research facilities which not only for the students but also a lot of researchers as well.
"Well, even if you are already graduated you can still visit the research rooms and the dungeons via transfer magic circle. There are a lot of people who come and go to the academy after all. Depending on the program I might have to come back to the academy after my graduation too."
Sempai laughed as she said that it is less likely for her not to come here. This place is certainly wonderful after all.
"I see.... Speaking of graduation, How about your dungeon capture, sempai?"
"Ah, at this pace, I should be able to dive into the dungeon that grants the graduation qualification soon. But to beat the record for the fastest clearing might be too hard for me."
"Yes, since that record will be mine after all."
Sempai laughs while wiping her sweat.
"You sure say it now, huh. If you said that much I will have to place some expectation on you then."
She said so and slapped my back. Seem like she doesn't take my word for real.
Well, I wasn't joking though.
