Episode 309 Chapter 56: Exchange Student (5)

Exchange Student (5)

The new dormitory for foreign exchange students at Starflower Tree Magic School was built this year for the Stella exchange students, raising the expectations of many students.

And living up to those expectations, the new dormitory was built under the leadership of the Starcloud Trading Company, boasting an extraordinary quality.

Not only did it consider human convenience, but the decoration of tree roots throughout the corridor and the miniature World Tree model rising prominently in the dormitory lobby showed how much effort the architect put into aesthetics.

"Welcome, Stella students!"

In Stella, there were also dormitory managers and staff, but they didn't show such politeness to the students. Many students had grown too accustomed to living with power as nobles among humans, so Stella's staff moved and acted literally like 'ghosts.'

They were certainly there, perfectly catering to the students' needs, but unable to converse with them.

However, in elf society, there were no nobles.

"Welcome to Starflower Tree."

Therefore, the staff could show respect to the students instead.

It was quite an ironic situation, but it happened because the ways and beliefs pursued by each race were so different.

"Ah, yes..."

"Hello..."

The commoner students awkwardly accepted the staff's greetings, while the noble students showed satisfied expressions as their familiar senses were revived.

Among them, Baek Yu Seul received the most elaborate treatment because Jelliel was walking with him.

In fact, Jelliel, who could be considered the 'owner' of this luxurious dormitory comparable to a hotel, was walking confidently, followed by ten dormitory managers and staff.

'This is really uncomfortable...'

While the other students were spreading out to their dormitories, Baek Yu Seul couldn't. Jelliel insisted on showing him the dormitory, so he had no choice.

Although it was bothersome, it wasn't a bad experience for Baek Yu Seul. He was an ordinary student who liked traveling and games, and touring a dormitory built with elven culture was quite a new experience.

Taking the opportunity, Baek Yu Seul ended up having a meal alone with Jelliel at the outdoor terrace garden on the upper floor of the dormitory, and he asked a question he had been curious about.

"The dormitory wasn't originally like this. Why was it newly built?"

"Because I thought you would come as an exchange student."

"...What?"

It was a rather unexpected answer.

"What does my coming here have to do with it?"

"It has a lot to do with it. I wanted you to use a nice dormitory here."

"...Really?"

She rested her chin on the back of her overlapped hands and leaned her head toward Baek Yu Seul.

"Don't you like it?"

(TL: if this ba$tard still doesn't fall for my queen Jelliel, then he's geyyyyy)

The question, thrown with a faint smile, was filled with confidence. She thought there was no way he wouldn't like it.

As she expected, Baek Yu Seul really liked the dormitory, but knowing it was built for him gave him a strange feeling.
