Chapter 10
MEL'S POV)
I immediately found the hidden treasure, isn't that good? I was restraining myself because I was disgusted with the two of them.
Yes I admit that I'm jealous but they have nothing to contribute other than always shouting Erina, Prince Gareth kept calling my name.
I don't know why but he really wants to talk to me, edi wow with him. "Oh thank God you found the treasure, princess Melusine."
I faked a smile at her and immediately opened the box, Prince Gareth seemed tired because Princess Erina always clung to him.
A faerie came out and greeted us. "CONGRATULATIONS STUDENTS FOR PASSING THIS ENROLLMENT EXPEDITION."
"I will inform the school that you found your hidden treasures, once again congratulations! Welcome to Oval Academy, here are your enrollment forms "
The form consists of school information, maps and dorms. Rules and regulations and stuffs. "Prince Gareth, let's talk about our engagement."
"What?" Prince Gareth asked as if he had returned to the sanity of what Erina had said, because he had been staring before.
"Well, I still don't agree with the engagement-" and blah blah blah. I no longer listened and continued reading the form.
"Would you like to be teleported to school, students?" when the faerie asked us, I turned to Gareth and Erina who were talking seriously.
"Hey-" I called them to let them know we were leaving. Hays, can they talk that topic if I'm gone? I'm the ex and it's awkward, doesn't Erina have a brain?
I know I'm being mean but sometimes his childishness and talkativeness is too much. well whatever, I'll act ok.
"Then don't agree." I titled my head to Prince Gareth's last answer, I didn't hear the others talking.
"What?" - Erina. aren't they done there yet? I signaled at the faerie to report us because they weren't listening.
I wonder what he meant by that, it made Erina speechless. Well that's none of my business, I'm just an ex.
In an instant we are here at school, thank god! Now I just need to find Lady Hera, I hope she's ok. I would have just left in case someone grabbed my shoulder.
"Prince Gareth?"
(Hera's POV)
So eventually a little fairy which is called as 'faerie' appeared in front of me, I was almost stoned in the chest due to panic.
I think they are small beings who guide students on the island, I read them in the novel and they're also called as 'little helpers'.
It had a high speech it told us and we were already given the forms.
Earlier Magnus don was staring intently at the faerie who was speaking.
Is there something wrong with the faerie? Because he is too serious to look at. "Now let us teleport you back to school!"
The faerie said cheerfully and snapped her fingers. I was just surprised that I was teleported to the air ?!
WHAT THE FU- "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" I shouted loudly, why was I teleported here ?! I thought at school !? is the school in heaven !?
"Ahh- gotcha." I felt something soft behind me. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Magnus smirk.
"B-why am I n-falling?" I asked in tears, bias is flying!
Oh my God! He didn't answer my question but we slowly went down.
He vasically carried me in a bridal style. I don't know how I will feel, should I be happy because this happened? Or sad because I almost died.
"MY SAVIOR! ARE YOU OKAY?!" King asked me worriedly when we got to the ground. The faerie is gone, is that mad at me?
Why am I being teleported ?! It's good that Magnus is a wizard, but I'm a real deds. Boy am I thankful that Gareth is not with me.
"That faerie's broken." Magnus said once he held her forehead. "That faerie has an unstable magic so you can teleport into the air, while this jerk and I are fine."
That's why Magnus don was staring at the faerie earlier, he probably feels that the magic that the faerie has is unstable.
"Th-thank you." I'm just saying thank you, but should I really be thrilled at this time?
ISNT THIS ILLEGAL ?! WOULDN'T ITS SCHOOL BE SUED FOR THE RELEASE OF SUCH A FAERIE? I almost died!
I went down and took a deep breath, I was surprised when King suddenly took my hand. "I'm really thankful to you for saving me."
I scratched my head so hard and just nodded, I could feel the scary aura from Magnus again.
Even though Magnus 'face looks normal, he's releasing such a presence.
It disappeared with screams and whispers being heard.
'Princess Erina and Prince Gareth are together!'
'They're probably sweet on the expedition'
'And there's Princess Melusine too oh! She's pretty.'
'Even though it's beautiful, it still clings to the prince.'
'They can't move on.'
My eyes widened and I immediately went to where Mel, THANK GOD SHE SURVIVE WITH GARETH!
Is he okay? When I arrived, I immediately saw Gareth holding Mel's shoulder, what is he doing ?!
My head got even hotter than she did because Mel's expression changed, she's hurt and surprised. Why is Gareth paying attention to him ?!
What an awkward position, many are still watching. Rumors will start because what Prince Gareth and Mel are doing looks bad.
And he's not letting go. "OH no he won't-"
I immediately went to them and did not notice that King and Magnus followed. "La-Lady Hera ?!"
"You motherf*cker!" once punched him in the face, who cares if he's still the crowned prince. "Don't touch her, you're gone, aren't you?"
I couldn't help but lose patience, other than he switched. He has the audacity to talk to the princess and hold ?! "The f-
"Don't ever come near the princess, this will be the last time you will be seeing her." I can authoritatively say.
He looked so surprised when I said that.
For a split second, I thought I saw 'regret and sadness' in his eyes. "Respect Prince Gareth, you're engaged."
I really feel like he has something to say to Mel, what's up? What happened when we went on the expedition? "How dare you do that to the crowned prince-"
I glared at Erina, she looked scared so she didn't continue. "L-Lady Hera, I'm fine. H-he's the crowned prince, damn you. "
Psh, what if he's a crowned prince? Magnus was even scarier than he was. Mel bowed to Prince Gareth to apologize.
"Sorry! sorry, my friend is just protective. Please don't punish her, prince. I will take responsibility. " Mel apologizes to Gareth but the prince just stares at her.
Mel is really smart, the prince is the one at fault, he is the one who apologizes. This prince- what does he need from Mel?
We already kept our distance, we accepted what he said and continue to move on. That must be what he wants, right? Like the novel?
He wanted to not see Mel, but why was he so close now that his dream had come true?
"That's absurd! He must be responsible! you two, it's all your fault! Why would you punch the crowned prince ?! " Erina replied.
"Shut up- you're not in this." I replied annoyed because I was thinking, "If you want to join, I can punch you too to join."
He was silent, he just had to. I always hate her childish and na?ve personality, "M-my savior, let's not get to this point."
King appeared as if he had no choice but to defend Erina, well he's Erina's bestfriend and bodyguard.
He should just show up. "Savior? Who? Her !? "
I stopped talking and stared at King, Erina and Gareth. Gareth sighed and waved. "Its fine… let's just… go."
"What? but she punched your beautiful face, your highness. You can cross -company two. " Erina's annoyed answer which made the Prince glared at her.
"Did I stutter?" Erina's mouth was shut and she bowed. That's weird, I just saw Gareth scold Erina.
There is nothing like that in the novel, he always sweet talks his girl so that she doesn't cry because she is childish and babyish. Atsaka this is the first time seeing him mad like that…
I mean he's always angry as long as Mel is there but this one… is out of the book. Erina is really the one he scolded, the female lead?
"Tara and Princess Mel." I said coldly once pulling at the princess. Mel sighed and whispered something to me, I nodded at what she said.
"We wish to never see you again." we told them at the same time and left, before we left I saw the sadness in Gareth's eyes again.
Was he faking it? Maybe, why would he be sad when he should be celebrating because his wish for Mel to stay away has come true?
I also saw King having second thoughts, I think he wanted to apologize on behalf of Erina. Or maybe he wants to say sorry because he answered me.
Besides, Mel just wanted to say that she was with me because she was scared when she was alone. "It's good you're not weak, princess Mel."
He laughed at the same time. "I learned from the best!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ '
Thank you and destiny has agreed with me. It's really good that Mel and I have a room next to each other in the dorm. We are now in my room.
This room in my house is even bigger than in my own world, how are my friends?
I want to go back but it's not over yet, and the story is about to begin. Not to mention the flow changed…
Also I forgot to mention that, this huge as $ school dormitory looks like a mdfking hotel inside. Besides the women downstairs have their own cafeteria.
There are many shopping malls and stalls on the first floor. It looks like a modern themed hotel! I think up to 7th floor ata the dorm?
Just no elevator but there is a bubble portal, basically looks like an elevator but more magicy. Just get involved in magic.
"Hmm, I thought the classes would start the next day. I guess it will start tomorrow. " Mel said while looking at her form.
What? I just forgot that I'm here to study. But do I have to? I know everyone ehhh… hays where is Rios?
I haven't seen him around, because he often scolds and laughs at me. I guess he appears whenever he pleases.
"By the way, what happened to you on the expedition?" I asked, because I'm fixing dresses. We have our own uniform but dress…
Weird but the design is good, as long as she uni-dresses it looks good? I guess… "Oh, nothing much happened."
"Hmm? We heard Princess Erina screamed. " I said and closed the cabinet.
"Oh are you close to us? yeah she screamed because there were frogs that jumped on her. " Mel explained.
I don't know but I suddenly felt better from what I heard. serves her right, duh.
"Atsaka the Prince kept asking to talk to me." I stared at him, he also looked confused like me.
Of course I noticed that Gareth wanted to talk to Mel. Also weird, why did Gareth break up with Mel?
Is it because he really inlove with Erina? But I saw him get mad at Erina earlier. "You want to talk to her?"
She sighed and shook her head. "No, I don't want to. I might break my move, back to zero again then. "
"True, but are you interested in what's he's going to say?" I asked.
"I'd lie if I say no, of course I'm interested. but knowing he's engage, it sounds so wrong. So not at first. " He replied shrugged.
Although I don't bet Gareth, he seems like he really wanted to say and explain to Mel.
I'm confused because it's not inexplain in the novel why the break-up happened.
Maybe he fell in love with Erina? Or maybe he's playing with Mel's heart? What if? Why is it that the details in the novel are not inexplicable.
Isn't that unfair? We side characters and villainess don't have full detail as to why those events happened to us.
I don't even know Herabella's having a financial problem if I just don't reincarnate here. No one knows their pain except to me.
