"...Heh? My number?"

..........

The competition ended with Y/N getting promoted. It was mainly expected that she would win, but her winning the exam/match was a hot topic, not only to their batch but also to the other years. Luckily, the news that spread like wildfire did not become exaggerated as students and teachers heard the news of what happened to the exam. Then again, it was Kalego himself help the student journalists to fact check about the said event.

Because of that, wherever Y/N walks or passes by, the students can't help but look at her with admiration. Their stares felt a bit burdening, but as days passed, she got used to the staring, and the topic died down.

"Say... I haven't got all of your numbers, no?" Would it be okay if I ask them? I... I also want to have fun with you outside of school. I hope that our conversations are not limited to academic topics...."

Of course, everyone melted at how cute Y/N was being. The fact that she got shy at the end and ended up mumbling the last part and how she was fiddling her fingers while slowly looking up at them was enough for them to line up to give her their numbers.

...Look at them simps.

And speaking of simps, we have the one and only Azeru, Y/N's familiar, smiling with a proud gleam in his eyes. For how famous and lovely his Master is.

And while she was happy that all of her classmates were on board with her request, them collectively agreeing with it made her flustered. Once she got the last and most definitely the biggest simps for her, which are Azeru and Sabnock, she then remembered one particular student.

"Ah... I also have to get Ameri-san's number...." She mumbled to herself.

She may have mumbled that for herself, but her classmates definitely heard what she stated.

"Ameri-san? Like.... Azazel Ameri, the Student Body President?"

"Yes! We have been talking to each other for a while~."

She then remembered how cute Ameri was whenever they talked about the novel.

Aigoo... We don't know how Y/N transforms into a new person. How she acts depends on the person she is talking to. She may act cute and shy to her classmates, as she's still not really used to having classmates as cooperative and as happy-go-lucky as they are. On the other side, she may also act very confident or caring—or a "Mother hen" type of person. Perhaps the quantity and the overall characteristics of the people/person she is talking to are the basis for how she acts or talks.

Going back, as this day's classes ended, she went to the office of Ameri to ask for her number. She knocked twice and entered the room once she heard her say she may come into her office. Y/N saw how Ameri's stoic face warps into this sort of flustered face—perhaps, she thought that the one who knocked was either a student in trouble or one of her subordinates.

"Ah-Y/N! P-Please, take a seat. Wait for a bit. I'll prepare the tea for both of us."

"You don't need to, Ameri-san. Seeing how your table is filled with stacked papers shows how busy you are. So please, you don't need to. I'm just going to ask for something...."

While Y/N was busy getting her phone and preparing herself to ask the person in front of her their number, Ameri was really nervous about what kind of question Y/N would ask.

"Is it...IS IT WHAT I HAVE BEEN THINKING FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS? Or—Don't be ridiculous. You only talk about the series. Why and how would she develop feelings? If anything, I probably think I have feelings for her because I am so into the series that my mind instinctively created scenarios and over-the-top assumptions!" She thought. With that in mind, she felt relieved and at the same time disappointed—for who knows why. Perhaps she likes Y/N, but not how and as much as she thinks. We will never know, and only time will tell.

"Ameri-san, are you okay? Did I choose a bad time to come here to ask about it?"

Ameri then returned to her senses and panickingly reassured Y/N that it was okay and she did not choose the wrong time to come here.

"I apologize for spacing out. It has been a tiring day. But that is all. Anyway, what is your question, and how may I help you?"

"May I ask for your number?"

"...Heh? My number?"

With that, Ameri became as red as her hair. She agreed while stuttering; she clumsily grabbed her phone and gave her number to Y/N. Y/N then thanked her for agreeing to give her number and told her to take care of herself before leaving her office, smiling.

Once the door clicked and waited for a bit until the sound of the footsteps died down, she slowly had a mental breakdown.

Another simp, I see.

............

"Oh my, it seems you got all your friends' numbers! I am so happy for you, Y/N~ I'm glad to see you are having fun with all your friends."

"Thanks, Gramps. Oh, may I also have your number? Oh, and I also want Opera-san's too! So that, if I can, I can send updates through messages and pictures whenever I am at school."

Sullivan and Opera then gave their number to her with a smile on their faces. Seeing how she is different and happier day by day, they are willing to do everything to keep that smile on her face.

Once they finished eating dinner, they bid each other a good night and went to their respective offices or rooms. Y/N looked at her messages and saw different messages from her friends. They even created a chatroom with her on it! She felt excited and warm as she saw how they accepted her with open arms.

Though happy, since this has never happened before, she feels shy texting/replying to her friends. She mainly used reactions to show her responses, but once she got used to it and got comfortable, she slowly started to message or reply to them. While chatting about random things, a notification suddenly popped up. She saw Ameri's profile pic, which was her face displaying a stern look.

Ameri's message read, "Thank you for everything you have done regarding the series. Do not hesitate to contact or message me if you need anything."

Which Y/N replied with, "Of course! I have fun talking to you about the series, Ameri-san ^^. Thank you!"

On the other side, Ameri can't help but smile at how cute Y/N was when texting. She then remembered her user profile pic and felt the world stop.

She then decided that, as soon as possible, she needed to change it—she needed to fix her facial expression at her picture.

A/N

I am sorry for how long it took me to update the story. I also would like to apologize if today's update seemed like a filler chapter. I'll try my best to make it better. It has been hectic these days because of academic and personal reasons. Thank you so much for understanding!
