"Lady Martina?"

"H-huh? What is it, Shikari-san?" I was startled hearing her voice when I was thinking about Asuka's condition.

"You were zoning out... What were you thinking?" She asked with a worried face. I shook my head and smiled gently at her.

"Nothing important..." I blurted out as I looked at what the teacher was teaching.

...

I scowled at Lady Martina's remark. After speaking with that Asuka girl for the past two days, she had recently been zoning out.

'Is she really thinking about that girl?' Although Asuka is stunning, she wields Anomalous Magic. I was concerned Lady Martina might be hurt. I find it sad that she's been thinking about that girl so much. Well, I will just see what Lady Martina is up to...

We headed to the cafeteria as usual after class. I should bring her some sweets, perhaps. She then smiled warmly as she turned to face me.

"I'll need to talk to someone, I hope you don't mind...?" She spoke to me, looking desperate. Again? She's probably meeting Asuka again... Ugh, I should stop being jealous over small things...

"Sure, but be careful, okay?"

"Heh, I'm always safe!" She said with a proud face. Well, she's because I’m always protecting her...

"Well then, see ya!" She said as she ran and waved at me. I waved back and put on a happy expression. My expression completely darkened as soon as she left my line of sight. I really detest these feelings.

Maybe I had to clarify something about that Asuka girl... I just had to make sure that Lady Martina is not threatened to meet her every day... I'm surely not stalking her, yeah!

Until she made a sharp turn around the corner, I silently followed her. I got nervous and hastily moved to the corner. In case they were conversing, I leaned against the wall with my back.

"Have you talked to them?" I heard Lady Martina say. What does she mean by that?

"I did, but they just gave me a disgusting glare..." I heard Asuka's voice reply to her. Is she talking about the other Anomalous Magic users?

"Hm... well, there's no point in trying... did you have anything interesting happen?" Lady Martina asked her. I could sense that Asuka was hesitating.

"Um... there is..."

...

I woke up on my rough bed sleepily. I looked around my room with a sleepy face. Ugh, I hate this dorm... it makes it hard to sleep...

"HEY, WAKE UP, TRASH!" My ear picked up our teacher screaming. I was startled by the loud noise and immediately sat up straight. I thought my ear was gonna bleed... The other students just laughed at me. How humiliating...

"Well now! All of you trash need to show others your magic!" Our teacher said. Some of the students were chatting about their magic and stuff.

"Oi! You, black shirt guy!" He screamed at the emo guy beside me. The guy immediately stood up.

"Show us your magic, d*ckhead!" He yelled at the guy. He nodded quietly and held up his hand.

"<Koniogenesis>" he softly murmured. Then he felt some sort of dust coming from his palm. The dust moved and took the shape of arrows. The nearby students were in awe.

Is that an added element..? I had never heard of it, but maybe it's the combination of their parent's elements that Father told me about...

"Dust magic! Amazing... it can make people blind!" The teacher grinned proudly and remarked. Are these folks truly so driven to kill...? He then glared at me uncomfortably. Oh sh*t, turn away.
