10 MINUTES LATER
The fact that it took me 10 minutes to make it to my dorm room wasn't all that surprising considering I took the most scenic route I could think of.
The vast amounts of greenery Jujutsu High had to offer would never not surprise me.
When I finally made it to my dorm, I sighed, inhaling the familiar vanilla scent that seemed to stay despite the room being dormant for a little while.
Everything was exactly how I left it, albeit the new additions to the room: the multiple designer shopping bags piled in the corner of the room.
They were for Megumi and Tsumiki.
I'll need to have them brought to my house today.
With a groan, I tossed my backpack in the corner of my room, making my way over to my wardrobe in pursuit of my uniform.
I carefully opened the closet, looking up at the multiple pieces of uniform I owned: the styles were relatively similar, but just different variants.
I didn't even bother picking logistically: I just pulled a random one out.
I observed the black outfit carefully.
Random observation: where everyone else had their uniform a dark shade of purple, mine was just completely black.
It seemed to be a fitted dress with a cape that reached around the centre of my back. The dress seemed to have a slit going from the bottom right up to my upper thigh.
I just shrugged and began changing out of my current clothes to put my uniform on.
It honestly only took me about five minutes to get dressed, and I also slid a thigh strip that held a dagger. Regardless of the portal I now have access to, I normally feel comfortable having at least one weapon ready for quick draw.
And today, I opted on a Special Grade dagger: Orcrist. I took it from the Dior clan.
I brushed myself down and reached over to the surface of my desk, where my cherry chapstick usually sat.
