Lefiya continues to apologise with her head lowered.
"… It's no use to blame her about that now," I said. "For now… let's just focus on these."
Telling him that, I look at the items on the desk.
A silver semi-auto pistol with a magazine of a capacity of 20 bullets.
19 9×18mm Ultra bullets.
A strand of scarlet hair.

"Looks like the only thing useful is probably the fingerprints on the gun and that one strand of hair…" I said.
"No, don't you give me that." Principal retorted with his eyes squinted at me, seemingly annoyed. "You al
Magic, or magic spells is a supernatural power to bend the laws of nature. It could be cast by converting the source, which is mana, and performing either one of the 'three keys', which are the catalyst for it.Before talking about the 'three keys', let's talk about mana.To begin with, what is mana?It's a form of energy that could be converted into magic spells— but only by performing either one of the 'three keys' could convert mana into magic.Mana was stored inside your body— the mana core. Like how unique it was in everybody's Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), fingerprints, and even their genetic and cultural traits, everyone was born with a different mana capacity, density and wavelength from each other; there may be similarities, but not the same. Just the mana capacity itself is rather distinct when you compare human's mana capacity (the lowest) with the elves (one of the highest).
Nowadays, there aren't many who mastered all three keys. Those who mastered them are called the triplex magicians, which were rare to find in this era."Yes, I'm one. And…?" Lefiya answered without being proud, or rather, she was unconcerned about it."Oh, nothing," I replied. "I was merely curious about it.""…That sounds like the lines of a person who will ask me a favour later," Lefiya said to me with a stern look."Why, indeed," I answered blandly. "How did you know?""…From experience." When Lefiya made that remark, her stern, cold expression remained."Sounds like a bad one," I said."…It is." She answered coldly.Whatever happened in her past looked like she'd been through a lot."Oh, that's right— Lefiya, do you have any plans later?" I asked. 
Hot.…So hot.The weather's so hot.It's been a while since I last felt summer heat.Since I met Kuroyuki Shiroha, my concept regarding heat seems to disappear.Okay… it looks like I got here a little early. I might as well ask Mr Waals Junior regarding to 'that'.Activating my screen, I looked for Reus Waals's contact with my authorisation and contacted him through the IKAssembly.'Morning, Reus Waals' I texted.'This is Lucifer Nightwalker von Nightmare, the special student''I have a favour to ask of you'
After Persia and I rode the subway station towards the centre of the Central District, I immediately got off the train and was currently…“Blerghhhh……………………”…puking my soul out in the men’s washroom.Ugh, I feel like crap.I can’t believe I had motion sickness.Come to think of it, this was my first time riding a train. It was unexpected because I was fine despite riding a shaking helicopter under such crude weather.So… a train motion sickness it is.I still had to ride it one more time when we went back… ugh…… just thinking about it gives me the chills.‘I bought the pills’ Persia sent me a message.‘U can come out now’Rinsing my mouth and throat with water, I sloppily exited the washroom with a fatigued look.“Here, water,” Persia said as she gave me a bottle of water.“…Thanks, Persia……”“I also bought the pills you wanted.”Saying that, Persia handed over the entire tablets of Antihistamines.Antihistamines… I might feel drowsy, dizzy, and decreased mental alertness from the si
First day of Spring. January. Current time: 7 a.m. I'm currently sitting at the front door of my house, while struggling my left foot into my jogging shoe. It is a gift from my cute little sister, Restia. Well, it's not that I felt like wearing new things in a new year. Apparently, my shoes exploded yesterday. As for the details— I had this little curse by The Black Cat of Misfortune, which I stepped on a trap, a landmine that I installed to prevent from those dangerous magical beasts that’s lurking in the forest nearby. After tying my shoelace, I face the corridor. “Done yet…?” “Restia is coming…!” A black hair, red eyes, and a 163 cm girl with an energetic look immediately replies, while storming out from the end of the corridor, where the dining room is. It took her a perfect one second sprint for her to reach me. That said, while landing with both of her feet, she stops in just a few centimet
Finally, Central Imperial Island-- Imperial Knights Academy.Ever since 3am, it's been a total of five hours ever since I travel across the ocean, on the X-586 helicopter.I'm quite fed-up.Ignoring the warnings from the pilot while I unbuckled my seat-belt, I jumped off from the helicopter without a parachute, where it's 8000 feet high in the sky.After diving across the sky to search for an appropriate spot to land, with my sense of equilibrium, I flip my body and land with my feet......while creating a hole on the pathway with my shoes half-sunken into the ground.Damn, the tiles are more fragile than I thought.The spot I land is the main path towards the main gates of Imperial Knights Academy, where the back of it is the path to the city.Like a forest, the sides of the path is covered by thick trees.No one would catch me in an act of vandalism on destroying the pathway..................."Gargh...!
"……Stop standing there and state your business already." After a cold sigh, with a voice like the murmuring of a clear stream— the girl spoke to me. Maybe she had been patiently waiting for my response, she furrowed her brows from displeasure and glared at me afterwards. "…H-Huh? Oh, yeah. Sorry." I find myself to be apologizing instinctively. It was probably I was staring at her for too long. …Come to think of it, I almost lost myself there. What is she…? It's like I'm getting sucked into some sort of abyss. This girl is dangerous— really, really, dangerous. I need to be careful not to get draw in again by her eyes. "Erm… I just transferred here today, and I got lost somehow, can you show me the way to the Student Council building…?" I asked with a smile. For how eerie and awkward my smile is, I guess
Instincts, intuitions, and sixth sense, though similar, but they are three completely different things.When you decide something and act without a need to think, that’s instinct.When you understand something without the need for conscious reasoning, that’s intuition.When you were given the awareness that’s not explicable in terms of normal perception, that’s sixth sense.
