Boring Life In A Magic Highschool

Meeting for the first time

The next day.

Yesterday, Fujimoto and I fought, and I got to see what some of the others could do. And now, the good days disappeared and returned to the boring days.

With just one day left before the annual exam, we are recommended to attend the last lesson for this week. Even though it's Saturday, and it's supposed to be our free day, we have classes to attend. And by tomorrow, from exactly 7 am until 12 pm will be the annual test. This is nothing but a clear hassle.

At this time, our teachers still taught some magic theories that I already knew from my father. Honestly, I would benefit more from sleeping rather than listening to the lectures. Well, at least lunch has arrived.

With no appetite, I decided to pay a visit to the school rooftop. Walking up through the long staircase, I finally arrived at the top.

Fresh, cold air greeted me, which was quite refreshing. I slowly made my way towards the railings. The scenery displays quite a prepossessing sight, from ant-sized houses and skyscraper buildings to the blue sky covered with white clouds, nothing could be more relaxing than staring at this.

That is until a certain noise obliterated my serenity. A noise from behind the roof door building.

Is someone here aside from me?

I thought to myself as I carefully walked towards that direction. I hid behind a wall, and slightly peered over. I noticed two figures, one of a boy student, and a woman. The boy was tall, with oceanic blue hair, and wearing a white uniform, while standing beside the woman, who was sitting in a white chair, her white hair was long, so long that it was lying on the ground, with a hat on top of her head, and also the same white uniform. Both of their backs were turned to me.

However, they both emit an aura that's tense and cold. They're not normal.

I could hear murmurs. They are talking to each other. But wait, this feels really illegal. I shouldn't peer here, I should get going before I get into trouble. I was about to leave when suddenly, I heard a word that piqued my interest. The name "Ryujin."

"Ryujin, have you prepared yet? I worry that you might goof around again." The woman's voice was gentle and mellifluous. It sounds very light, yet, there's a hint of coldness within.

"I am ready, do not worry! Haha! I will do my best." The boy on the other hand has a gentle, happy-going voice.

"May your task be completed successfully."

"Yeah, yeah. I will. Though, I'm really nervous."

"You are the fourth seat, Ryujin, be confident in your own strength."

"I'll try to."

So that's... Kajiyashaki Ryujin, and based on the conversation, the woman beside him is also part of the council. Well, I've seen enough, I should get going.

...

As Ryo left, the woman looked over her shoulders. She felt a presence watching over them, although she was quite unsure who.

"Ryujin, did you feel that presence?"

"I did. I thought I was just imagining things."

"I see. We should leave. We can't tarnish our reputation as the council members. Someone could see this and think we are badly behaved."

"Alright then."

The woman stood up from her chair, and walked towards the door, with Ryujin, following behind her.

Lunchtime is still in progress. How come time moves so slowly? Either way, I could use this time to explore more of the school.
