” But she/he is a pain the butt”, both said in sync.
“No buts and if both of you think that you are a pain for each other then I recommend both of you should take painkillers”, said Miss Harmony.
Everyone in the class laughed at us. We both sat down after realizing that there is no way of reasoning with miss Harmony. Resentment was clear on Kei’s and Mizuki’s faces for each other but they could do nothing. Miss harmony announced the rest of the teams.
Team no 4: Sora and Sisi, Team no 5: Flora and Soma. After announcing other teams, she took our attendance and everyone went to the battle arena.
“Okay, today you are all going to be engaging with mechanic vampires along with your partner. You have to take down these mechanical vampires with the help of each other if your partner fails to even put a scratch on it while you take it down all by yourself the whole team is going to fail. And remember if you get F more than passing marks in each subject for the next week you won’t appear in mids meaning you are going to repeat your mid-session”.
“Oh, and if you get three F in a row it doesn’t matter if it’s a different subject you will have to repeat mids”, said Miss Harmony.
“Why does it sound like you really want someone to repeat mids”, asked Sora.
“Well, if you want to go to the battlefield without any proper training and die in a second then I will give you straight A’s. What do you say”? replied Miss Harmony.
“NO, I’m fine with having proper training even if it means getting an F”, Sora said.
“Wow! Just take a look at these humongous machines”, Mizuki said in wonder.
“Yeah, and the bad thing is that you are my partner”, said Kei in disappointment.
“You think I’m enjoying being your partner”, Mizuki replied in disgust.
“Well of course after all I’m a prince”, said Kei. “Is he a narcissist or what? I’m going to puke if keeps on doing praising himself”, Mizuki thought in mind.
“Wow it’s a pleasure for me that I got to be your partner,” Mizuki said in a sarcastic tone. “Jerk”
“What did you say”? Kei asked while being slightly angry.
“Nothing. You are imagining voices”.
The team which was supposed to battle first remained in the arena while the rest of us went to the waiting area to wait for our turns. Everyone was done with their battles pretty quickly I guess it was because of their great teamwork and soon our turn came.
Mizuki’s POV:
“It’s finally our turn. Hey Kei you can do whatever you want just don’t come in my way”. Kei replied: “You are the one who shouldn’t come in my way”. I ignored him and made huge hands with my mana, grabbed the machine with its foot, and spun it in the air.
While I was spinning it I saw that Kei teleported in the mid-air and tried to kick it in the face to smash its control center but as I was spinning it recklessly it threw Kei across the field giving him some injuries. Due to the impact of Kei’s brutal kick, I also got pushed back and ended up being submerged in the wall. I got out of the wall and was covered in bruises.
“I told you not to get in my way”, Kei shouted from the distance.
“I too told you not to but you did”.
We were busy fighting with each other and blaming one another for the injuries we received. Meanwhile, the machine got up and started to attack us. We both barely escaped its attack.
I again tried to push it down to the ground but Kei again got in my way. 15 minutes went by and we both were struggling not with the machine but with one another. We kept coming between each other’s attack then finally Kei said:
“I can’t believe I’m saying this but we have to work together”.
“You think? I believe because if it was only me, I could’ve done it in a second but you have to hit it too”, Mizuki replied.
“Huh? Excuse me you are the one getting in my way and I could’ve defeated him in Nanosecond”, said Kei.
“Let’s not talk about it now. How about I drag him to the ground and once he is down you smash his control center”? said Mizuki
“That sounds like a plan to me. Let’s do it”, Kei said while agreeing with the plan.
Then we did according to the plan and finally got rid of this mechanical vampire. It was kind of difficult to defeat that thing. I and Kei got pretty injured but we can’t argue with it because if we worked together from the beginning we wouldn’t be injured.
“What was that? What were you both doing in the arena? I thought I made myself clear that you are supposed to work in a team”, said miss Harmony.
“We did work in a team though it was in the end”, said Kei.
Well, I’m going to deduct marks for your initial behavior and if you are continuously going to show this kind of behavior and get such bad grades, I will demote both of you. And Kei I don’t care whether you are a Prince or not”, Miss Harmony said in a threatening tone.
“Yes, miss Harmony”, both of them replied.
Finally, this difficult class was over and we both had to go to the nurse's office because we can’t heal ourselves due to cancellation devices. We spent our next class in the nurse’s office and were still blaming each other.
“It’s because of you that I got a warning from Mis Harmony”, said Kei.
“Oh, shut up for once. It was not my fault and just so you know she yelled at me too”’, Mizuki said getting annoyed by Kei’s behavior.
After being treated we went to the cafeteria because we basically didn’t go to the next class as we were too injured to go. Ronesme and Jones approached us with notes and told us that Mr. Tsubaki gave an assignment to us in which we have to observe a flying boar how it uses nearby energy to fly and attack its prey.
“Did everyone get the same assignment”? Mizuki asked.
“No, everyone got their own unique type of assignment based on their power usages and we have the time until next week” Jones replied.
Mr. Tsubaki also told that no student has to attend his class until next week because he has already assigned the work to us”, Ronesme added.
“Wow. But I guess these instructions match his tired personality”, said Kei.
After all that talk, I went to eat my delicious lunch with Ronesme.
“I was so tired after all of the fighting but this cafeteria food fills my mouth with water. It’s so delicious”, Mizuki said it getting all jolly and bubbly.
“You really like this cafeteria’s food don’t you”, Ronesme asked.
My mouth was filled with food but I still tried to reply to Ronesme. “Yup. I’ve…. Bev…er...pa...spe...fush…bel. i.. fus...foog”. Thought I was trying to say I’ve never tasted such delicious food before.
Looking at my mouth filled with food Ronesme laughed out heartedly. “I get it I get it you don’t have to say it. Eat your food first”.
After I swallowed my food I said, “forget about food how many marks did you get in first class”?
“I got marks above the average”, Ronesme replied.
“Wow! Your team is doing awesome while I’m doing trash”, said Mizuki.“That’s not true your team is perfect too. You know miss Harmony made every student’s partner according to their abilities and power level. Both you and Kei are a powerful team if you both work together”, said Ronesme.“I would love to work with him but he is too arrogant and try to boss around. If he conder me as his equal things would be easy”, I replied.“Sigh! well it's up to you two because if you both don’t work together you might end up being demoted and I will have to find another friend since we won’t be able to meet due to our class differences so, I guess I have to start working on finding new friends as well”, said Ronesme being dramatic.Hey! Don’t go around thinking of making new friends. Just to remind you I’m still your friend”, said Mizuki getting a bit jealous.&ldquo
English is my second language so, if there's any grammar mistake please ignore it “Hey! Wait for me. I’m coming with you too”, Kei shouted from a distance. “Why? I thought you hated my guts and didn’t want to get in trouble” Mizuki said. “Don’t get the wrong idea. I still hate your guts. I only want to come because whenever you are done with eating, we could go to visit those flying boars and start making our assignment”. “Good thinking. Fine, you can come”, Mizuki agreed. Mizuki’s POV: Then we went to the cafeteria and my eyes were again stuck-on food. Most people would say that I must be on a diet or fasting judging from my slim figure but once they get to know me, they say that I’m a foodie and ask where does all the food go. Well, the only thing I could say to them is that I don’t know myself. “Hmm… what should I eat now? How about Strawberry Cheesecake Poke cake, Root Beer Pie, Dulce de Leche Lava Cake, S’
The meeting is dismissed.Kei and Mizuki went to the tiny zoo made in school for students’ study and started to look for flying boars.“Wow! There are so many animals here. I can’t believe that they also have endangered as well as exotic ones too” Mizuki said in wonder.“Well of course they have these ones too because endangered ones can’t be kept at the public zoo. Our school is also ranked no 1 in preserving endangered species in the entire kingdom”, Kei said praising the school.“I’m glad that I got admission to this school. Now I only have to work hard and my dream will come true”, Mizuki said to herself as she was looking at different animals and admiring them and their capabilities, they were able to do.“Come to think of it you yourself are a new species. You should be locked in a cage too”, Kei said making fun of Mizuki.“Huh? Wh-What are you talking about?
As the talk was continuing and everyone was telling about their abilities and why they wanted to become protectors Kei’s turn came to tell his reason for choosing this school. Everyone was curious about his reason because he is a prince so why does he want to be a protector.“Well, as everyone knows that my ability is teleportation but no one knows the extent of my teleportation ability. Let me disclose this secrete to everyone. I can teleport anywhere in the world as long as I’ve been to that place even once in my life”, said Kei.“So, you mean you can’t go to a place which you haven’t visited”, said Sora.“Yes, for me to teleport to a place I have to visit that place first after that I can teleport there any time I want to. And for my reason to be a protector is simple. I want to protect my kingdom on my own and not want to rely on someone else for its protection”After Kei’s turn was don
English is my second language so, if there's any grammar mistake please ignore it.Kei’s POV:The week was almost over and so was our assignment. Today was our last day working in a team. I and Mizuki went to the zoo area to complete our last detail on the flying boar. It was quite peaceful because Mizuki was completely immersed in writing. An hour went by then Mizuki spoke.“Here you go. My portion of the assignment is complete. You do yours while I’m going to see other animals. There are tons of animals I’ve never seen”, Mizuki said while giving her assignment papers to me.“Fine. Just don’t go too far. We have to proofread the assignment before submitting it”“Okay, I won’t go far. When you’re done call me, I’ll be at the next batch of cages”, saying this Mizuki went away.“This area is quite beautiful considering that there are trees and
“Hey Mizuki before we go can I ask you another question?”“Yeah sure, go ahead and ask your question but it better be one because we are running out of time. Almost all the students have already submitted their assignments so, hurry up”“Are you against our kingdom or some kind of a spy sent by some other kingdom?”, said Kei with a serious look in his eyes.After hearing what Kei just said Mizuki couldn’t contain her laughter and burst out a laugh with tears forming in her eyes because of laughing.“Hahahahaha. What did you say? Me a spy sent from another kingdom. You sure know when and how to crack a joke. Hahahahaha”.“Ha-ha very funny. I didn’t make a joke so stop making fun of me and answer my question. Can’t you see I’m being serious? I only asked you this question because you are very suspicious and are hiding a lot of stuff”, Kei said being angry.&ldq
Mizuki’s POV:I picked up the papers and went towards the teacher’s office. On my way there I bumped into someone and the papers which I was holding scattered on the ground.“Umh…” I said in pain but apologized immediately to the person I bumped in.“I’m sorry. I didn’t saw you because of this pile of papers”.“You don’t need to apologize. It’s obvious that you couldn’t see because these papers were blocking your path of vision”, said, someoneI was gathering papers from the ground when the person I bumped in also crouched down to help me. When the papers were gathered, I stood up and thanked the person.“Thank you for helping me”.As I said thank you, I noticed that the person was staring into my eyes. It was really awkward and weird so I asked, “Is there something on my face?”“Oh! No, no it’s nothing. I di
English is my second language so, if there's any grammar mistake please ignore it.“Are we going to have group study in your room Mizuki?” asked Sora“What? No, my room is not that big which could contain ten people in it”, Mizuki replied“So, then where are we going to study? In cafeteria or some other place?”“No, we won’t study at the cafeteria either. Other students also will be there and it will be noisy. We won’t be able to focus that way so, we will study in the common room. It's big, quiet and has carpet in it. We’ll sit on the floor. This way everyone will be able to help each other.”“Wow, you’re really good at thinking”, Yuki praised.“I can’t sit on the floor”, said Kei.“Why? Is your royal butt too good for the floor or is it the other way around?”, Mizuki replied.“It’s not
