Chapter 4: The Day Before School Starts, A Clichéd Scene (1)
The bright sunlight outside the window awakened Eliyah. She stared at the unfamiliar ceiling on the bed for half a day before finally connecting the fragmented memories in her dazed brain and realizing that she had indeed crossed over.
And it turned out to be a Lolita's time-traveling!
Alicia glanced at her roommate - the big sister with a thick nerve, Li Hua Yin, who forced the teacher to use up all his energy during the martial arts entrance exam - was now continuing to "sleep like a log" on the other bed with an extremely terrible sleeping posture.
"If your future boyfriend sees you sleeping like that, it's absolutely going to be a disaster, Hua Yin." Elisia muttered.
It's time for branch line selection~~~~!
Only three options appeared on the screen: A, splash her with cold water; B, add a sleep spell to let her continue sleeping; C, take advantage of the opportunity to push her down.
Yes, undoubtedly C is the correct choice.
Eri: "Author, have you played too many Galgames? It's impossible for these three options to appear in reality, right? And what's with the third option?!"
The situation above will certainly not occur...
Alicia pushed Li Hua Yin: "Get up early, Hua Yin. Hurry up and get out of bed!"
Lee Hua's sleepy eyes barely opened, and she turned her head in Eliya's direction. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly exerted force and hugged Eliya, who was unguarded and leaning forward, into her arms on the bed, rolling around: "Wow~~ Little Eliya looks so cute in her sleepwear that I'm about to faint~~~~~~~~~"
"Your saliva is so disgusting! And what's with your current state, where do you look like you're about to faint?! " Elisha almost screamed as she pressed against Li Hua's head, because there was still a bright ** at the corner of her mouth.
After struggling for nearly 10 minutes, Li Hua finally let go of Alisha and started getting out of bed.
The two, having finished washing up, began to put on the uniforms they had received yesterday - namely, the standard warrior attire and magic robes. Casual wear was strictly prohibited within the academy, and weapons could only be used with standardized non-lethal equipment. However, there were no restrictions on magical accessories and small tools. As for expensive alchemy materials, if you prepared them yourself, the academy wouldn't bother to intervene.
The standard warrior attire consists of a breastplate that doesn't hinder movement, a short-sleeved shirt, a short skirt, and a cloak. Of course, this is the female version. For males, the skirt is replaced with shorts. The overall color of the first-year uniforms is an unremarkable gray.
The magic cloak is composed of a European medieval fantasy classic style long skirt with a cape, while the boys' version is a long robe with a cape. The overall color remains gray.
After dressing neatly, Eriol picked up the staff with no amplification effect and looked at Li Hua Yin, who was examining the blunt single-handed sword issued by the academy with a straight face.
Although she didn't know what Li Hua was thinking, Eriol decided it would be better not to ask. So she called out: "Alright? Let's go have some breakfast first?"
"Huh? Oh, you're ready? Alright then, Little Ai Li, let's go pick someone up first." Li Hua Yin came back to his senses and stood up from the chair.
"Accept personally?"
"That's right, she is my bosom friend! I think you and she will also become very good friends."
"You're not going to be like him, are you? I can barely handle just you."
"Huh? Did you say something, Little Aili?"
"No, nothing."
As they spoke, the two had already left the room. Li Hua led Eri to a door not far away. Eri looked at the sign on the door, which read 2A07.
Lihua's Iron Sand Palm struck the poor door with a loud bang, and Eriol couldn't help but wonder if the knocking sound could be heard throughout the entire girls' dormitory: "Haro~~Mishier! Wake up, it's morning! Get up quickly, or I'll come in and spank your little butt!!"
Alicia's first drop of cold sweat today was produced shortly after getting out of bed.
The door opened and a girl wearing a formal magic robe carefully opened the door: "Hua Yin sister, your voice is too loud."
Alicia's eyes lit up involuntarily.
This is a very beautiful girl, giving people the feeling of a lotus flower that has not yet bloomed. A head of brown long hair was tied up with a silk ribbon, and her figure was naturally full and tall, surpassing Eliya's in every way. Although she was obviously not a noble, without any noble air about her, that unadorned commoner style somehow suited the girl's shy appearance even better.
"How did you know it was me knocking on the door when my voice wasn't loud?" Li Hua pulled Michelle into his arms and deliberately messed up her hair, "Ah, the feel is still as good as ever! Although not comparable to Little Ai Li's."
"Your lines are intentionally misleading, aren't they? Absolutely intentional, right!?"
"Mooooo..." Miki let out a sound similar to that of a small animal, trying to protest, but it only seemed to have the opposite effect.
Even Eriol, who had been listening to this phrase, suddenly felt the urge to go and touch Miharu's head. Looking at the scene in front of her, she suddenly remembered Kouyou Haruhi, who was still bullying Asahina Mirai...
"I said," as the two of them seemed to be in no hurry to stop, Eri had to intervene, "Hua Yin, shouldn't you introduce me and this classmate first?"
"Ah, that's true." Li Hua released Miroku, who let out a visible sigh of relief and began to tidy up her hair. "Uh, Eri, this is my childhood friend Miroku Dominique. Miroku, this is my roommate Eri Harris, she's in the same class as you."
"Hello." Miharu's face turned bright red as she said, "Eri-chan, you're so pretty!"
"Just call me Aili." Aili Xier bowed slightly, "Nice to meet you."
"Alright, let's go have breakfast in the cafeteria!" Li Hua said, raising his right hand as he saw that the two of them had become acquainted.
Mitsuki fidgeted and rubbed her hands together, saying: "That, just in case, I'd like to ask. Huayin sister, did you bring your student ID?"
The ordinary set meal in the cafeteria of Xiangzimen Garden is free, but you need to use your student ID card to get it. The nutrition of the ordinary set meal is enough, but if you want to eat better dishes, they are available for a fee! Others who go to eat, including teachers, have to pay for their meals.
Li Hua was petrified in an instant.
"It's clear you've forgotten." Eriol sighed, "Luckily we haven't gone far, hurry back and get it."
I am a divider line
The campus is busier today. Everywhere, newly admitted freshmen are rushing around with the things they received at registration, while teachers responsible for guiding them are loudly shouting directions to prevent them from getting lost.
Of course, these voices are much louder than the noise at the entrance. It's hard to imagine how many people have gathered there now.
When the three of them arrived at the cafeteria, it was already packed with people.
"Alright, are you going to queue up for a set meal or wait for a seat over there?" Elisha asked Li Hua.
"I'll go queue up, this physical labor is better left to the warriors." Li Hua rubbed his head and said, "You and Misha go wait for seats. No, I reckon others will voluntarily give you their seats."
"Huh? Why would someone voluntarily give up their seat to us?" Michelle asked in puzzlement.
Alicia and Li Hua were both silent at the same time.
"Huh? Huh? Did I ask the wrong question?"
"Alicia asked, 'Is she really okay like this?'"
"It's okay, it's okay! Whoever dares to bully her, I'll beat whoever, whoever dares to flirt with me, I'll also beat whoever, whoever dares to look at her, I still want to beat whoever!"
"Don't you think it's getting more and more absurd?"
"Well, I think it's perfectly normal. Muxue is mine... nobody can touch her."
I can be sure of it now, you absolutely have the potential for lilies in your bones!
Just as I was muttering to myself, a boy's voice came from not far away: "Hey ~~ Huayin, Muxueer, over here ~~"
Alicia couldn't help but turn her head in curiosity, and saw a black-haired boy from the martial arts department occupying a four-person table by himself, waving at them.
"Oh, Ilya." Li Hua led the way over, "You're here really early, and you even managed to grab a table."
"No, I haven't been here for long either. It's just that the nobles eating at this table were too annoying, so I taught him and his cohorts a lesson. Then, for some reason, nobody came to sit down?" Ilya said, rubbing his nose.
That's because nobody dares to come over and sit down...
Alicia mentally complained while sizing up the boy named Ilya. Undoubtedly, this was a pretty cool little guy (don't forget that the protagonist's real age is almost thirty, so for her, sixteen or seventeen years old is of course a little guy), with a confident expression on his face full of masculinity. If he dressed up and fixed his appearance, he would definitely be the killer of those naive noble ladies at the ball. Unfortunately, as a commoner, he didn't care about his appearance at all, and even his black hair that could rival the night sky was messy like a bird's nest, what a waste.
"Who is this?" Ilya apparently also noticed that Eri was with Li Hua and the others.
"Oh, she's my roommate Alisha Harris, and Michelle is her classmate." Li Hua said as he turned around again, "Little Ai Li, this is another childhood friend of mine Ilya Mals, we're in the same class."
"Hello, nice to meet you." Eriol slightly bowed her head.
"Are you a noble?" Ilya was stunned. Apparently, he didn't expect the beautiful girl in front of him who was off the charts but had no airs to be a noble.
"I suppose so. But in college, I'm just an ordinary student."
"If that despicable bastard had half your breeding, I wouldn't have beaten him to a pulp." Ilya shook his head and said, "Never mind about that guy. Nice to meet you, Eriolihya."
"You're quite at home," said Li Hua with a smile.
"What's wrong?" Ilya couldn't help but be puzzled, and even Michele on the side blinked her eyes with a face full of confusion.
"Who calls someone by their given name when they first meet?"
"Is this really important? She could just call me Ilya directly."
"You're done for."
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind." Eriol couldn't help but have a slightly better impression of Ilya, at least he didn't become like the other boys around him who turned into pigs or flying men - yeah, those who came to hit on her and got beaten up by Li Hua. There were already quite a few on the way to the cafeteria.
Because there were boys in this small circle, the task of queuing for meal sets was naturally handed over to Ilya. The remaining girls sat together and started chatting to pass the time.
Then, when Ilya brought the set meal back and everyone started eating, Eriol finally saw what was called a murderous gaze - although these gazes were directed at Ilya, who was completely oblivious to them.
I'm saying the author, but actually the main character is Ilya, right?! Li Hua and I plus Michele, this is a standard harem (divine beast) mode! What's with this seemingly third-rate moe-style light novel plot development!?
……
If you really want to mock, then don't include yourself in the number of women around the male lead out of habit, okay?
"Okay, let's continue."
Since everyone present was a commoner, they all chatted freely while eating. As for Eriol's obvious affected aristocratic gestures earlier, that was a habit instilled in her mind by some unscrupulous lolicon.
Eriol: If it's possible to implant etiquette movements, then why can't you implant combat skills for me!?
Locklear: Ah, my dear sister, where's the fun in that?
Through chatting, Eliya roughly understood the three people in front of her.
First, there's Li Hua Yin from the same dorm. This 17-year-old girl has an exceptionally thick nerve and an unusually strong liking for cute girls. Although she's not very reliable when it comes to getting things done, her energy is off the charts. In short, as long as she's around, the atmosphere will never be dull - even in a graveyard.
Then there's Miharu. This 16-year-old girl with the body of a 26-year-old is a super natural airhead, extremely shy and weak-willed, making you want to either bully or pamper her on sight. While she won't trip over flat ground, she does occasionally bump into people or walls.
Finally, there was only one boy, Ilya. This 17-year-old youth was a natural airhead, or rather, a single-celled organism. He was straightforward, loved to take up the cudgels for others, and had super-hot blood, as well as an incredibly large appetite that could devour ten people's worth of food in one sitting. Eliysha believed that if someone told him that a great devil who sought to destroy the world had appeared on the square of Hope Garden, he would be the first to rush up - provided he had eaten his fill.
It's indeed Ilya who is the main character, right?!
I am a divider line
After dinner, Li Hua suggested that everyone should get familiar with the location of the classrooms on both sides so that they can come over and play when there are no classes.
Although it's unclear why the warrior would want to come to the magic department, Eriol agreed with a willing attitude that she could go to the martial arts department to experience and learn about martial arts.
"After we get familiar with the classrooms on both sides, let's go ahead and pre-study our courses in our respective school districts. Alright, let's head to the martial arts department first." Ilya said to Misha, "This way, you and Eriol can also shorten your journey a bit."
"Ah, okay. Thank you." Michelle said with her head down and her face red.
"She really does get embarrassed easily." Eriol thought to herself.
"Then let's set off!" Li Hua jumped and ran to the front, "First stop, Wuji Class 1-A. You three hurry up, don't dawdle!"
"If you've just eaten, don't exercise vigorously like Li Hua did, it's bad for your stomach. Good kids can't learn from that." Elisia said to the other two with a very serious expression.
Cold sweat dripped down from both of their foreheads.
"Little Ai Li, you're launching a verbal attack again! Waaah, I'm so pitiful."
"No, I'm just stating facts."
Just as Li Hua was about to pounce over and start a fight, Mei Xue'er hastily changed the subject: "Hey, Elly sister, you said earlier that you're only 12 years old this year, right?"
"Yes." Eliya added in her heart: In fact, I am almost thirty years old.
"Isn't it too early for someone of your age to be attending college?"
"No problem, I'm much more capable of taking care of myself than some of my roommates."
"Hey!! I heard you!!" Li Hua shouted from the front.
Mitsuki couldn't help but smile slightly, apparently recalling Li Hua's personality: "So your talent must be very high? The entrance exam scores were extremely good!"
"It's so-so, at least the teacher's evaluation is still okay." Eri said with a chuckle.
I couldn't possibly tell you that the reading on the crystal ball prepared for excellent students has been broken.
As they walked and chatted, before long they arrived at the Martial Arts Department's school district.
As far as the eye can see, it is a large playground, and there are also some simple arenas nearby for students to practice. Many senior students have already had a great time fighting on the arena.
Passing through the playground, several teaching buildings that don't look very big come into people's view.
After all, warriors have very little theory to learn from, and most of their time is spent on training. So it's normal that the teaching building looks much smaller than the training grounds.
Li Hua led a few people to the door of Class A, first grade, on the first floor of the teaching building facing the playground and said: "It's here, you two must remember to come and play when you have time. Although we won't be in the classroom most of the time."
Why don't you just introduce us to the playground?
Eri-chan grumbled in her heart and then began to look around the classroom.
