Chapter 11

I hate school, that's all I can say. Whether it's a novel or a real world, all of it sucks. It's the first day of school and disaster that I immediately encountered. Why do I have to study again? Can't I just skip it because I already know a lot about the novel eh… Also Mel woke me up around at what? 3 am? He just suddenly entered my room, I thought who I almost punched him. He just came here to prepare for our first day of school. "Princess, it's too early for that." "But Lady Hera! It's our first day as 1st year students! We must be ready! " he said loudly, maybe the other rooms have been disturbed. Because of the strength of his commotion when he entered. "Also we have a program today! You know our upperclassmen will give us speech and all? " Princess Mel is the only one I know who is excited to go to school. I had no choice but to get up. "Yes, yes." Mel was just blabbering on about his supposed upperclassmen, he even said that he had a guest dawn and just graduated to give a speech. I remembered in the novel the first day of school by Erina, Gareth, Magnus and King. They sit side by side, of course the villainess is also there. He doesn't disappear as long as Gareth is there, but today is different. I really wish we didn't meet other male leads. We're already quiet, so what's up with Magnus? Even if I bias him I really need to do a distance with us. As a side character and currently on a mission, we need distance! That's right, so I won't talk to Magnus first… but can I? What about the incident that happened yesterday? I'm sure rumors already spread about me punching the prince, hays I'm still keeping a low profile. My plan was supposed to be 'Not to attract any other people and ignore the novel's characters in order to survive.' But what about that if I see them all the time? "Lady Hera, we must fix your appearance! You look haggard! " I noticed that it was 6 am, what the? I just stared for a while- haysss. "S-sure princess Mel, you'll take care of me." Mel fixed me and to be honest I was nice to be fixed. Not a joke ok? First time I arranged like this… Well except Rios, he also fixes me but it's not that nice. Normally, unlike the Princess she puts a lot of effort. "Thank you princess." He smiled at me and winked. "I know you like that wizard guy! So do your best today to enjoy our school life! " he said cheerfully, wizard guy? Is he referring to Magnus? I would have answered in case he said goodbye to prepare for later. Hays, I don't really like Magnus eeeh- Well I do like him… as a bias? I'm not sure…? "Hey Herabella." Rios appeared right next to me. "Hmm? Rios? Long time no see? " I got up and made my bed. "Where are you from? Usually you rant about my mistake. " "I have matters to attend to." I don't know but I feel fear in Rios 'answer, what matters? That's weird, I thought he was the only God that existed. Is he hiding something from me? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ' I can only say that I hope we don't see them, but fate has a different plan. We can see the arrival of Gareth, King and Magnus. They are not together, but they are going here together. I had to drag Mel out of there because of the amount of students surrounding them. It's not just 1st years here. But also 3rd and 2nd to meet the three of them, duh they will be famous all over the continent. Also this is the 1st years building, can another year enter here? The building of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd years is different. The scream got louder when Erina arrived, hmmm… I didn't know she was that popular? Is that what happened in the novel? Well, I don't know. They just didn't see us safe. First day after first day I was stressed by what was happening… We first entered the gymnasium, this may be a historical novel but I see a lot of modern stuffs here. "Princess Mel, good morning." "Good morning Lady Herabella." Greetings from the students. I just nodded awkwardly while Mel waved at them, wait, we're not as popular as Gareth. 'I heard she punched the prince.' 'Whooaa, it's good he's not getting punishment.' 'Yeah, we better stay away from them.' I secretly smiled, shouldn't I? We sat down in the middle because I knew those celebrities would sit in the front. I don't know but Mel has been smiling like a fool before. What happened here? "Hmmm, just the number of first years that have passed." I didn't look at Rios, it's true that the enrollment expedition isn't too difficult. "I'm so excited for today's guest!" Is he excited because? What? Is there another pogi character in the novel? "You know we should walk around the school after? since it's our first, all foods are free! " My face lit up and I looked at Mel. "Really ?!" Mel nodded, and we were both excited. Nothing much happens in the novel except that Magnus, Gareth and King stay on Erina's side. "Hello, my dear sister!" I immediately turned to the speaker and widened my eyes. Harris ?! I immediately went to him and hugged him. I didn't know that my body just moved on its own, Mel also came to us. Harris smiled at him. "BIG BROTHER HARRIS!" Mel greeted him and jumped on Harris and my brother caught him. Wow he's strong, also they seem close. Were they that close in the novel? Herabella's family doesn't have an appearance so I don't know, where did they meet? Since Harris is tall it looks like Mel is already clinging to him, well I'm glad they're close. The naman is awkward. "I told you Hera will be surprised!" "Well I didn't expect that, guess you win this time." They both laughed. "Why are you here, big brother?" I asked, Harris pinched my cheeks and smiled. "I'm the guest here you idiot, I didn't say that to surprise you. I didn't think it would work, so I will go home right away because… business. " I nodded, *BLAG* We heard a noise in the distance so we turned around at the same time. I mean with too much force we are really distracted. Huh? Is Prince Gareth here? Teka… why is he looking at us? and did he just kicked a chair? Isn't that disrespectful !? "Ah? Is he the dear prince? " Harris asked while lowering Mel. "He seems kinda intimidating." Because he was really looking at us, even the students who came here with Gareth. Why are they staring? We are the only ones sitting here. They shouldn't look at the empty seats, right? "Well I guess Big brother Harris is popular afterall." "H-huh?" I asked in astonishment, what is Harris ?! Do I know what role he has here ?! I glared at Rios who was just in front of me. "Ack- yes, your brother is the top student here at the academy so he is famous ok? He is also the guest. " Rios explained angrily. Just explain angrily, "The teachers suddenly invited me even though I was busy, I only told Princess Melusine to surprise you." "Oh yeah! Big brother and I have a bet on whether you will be surprised or not! " smiling Mel said. "And I won! Which means he's going to have fun with us! " "Yes, even if you lose. I will come with you, I have the whole full day to enjoy the academy again. " –Big Brother Harris While they were talking and laughing someone approached us, and guess who? Ughhh. "The teacher's been calling you a couple of times." Prince Gareth said coldly, Harris bowed since he's the crowned Prince. He's with Erina, can you wait for Erina to tail Gareth? Isnt it suppose to be the other way around? Why did Erina go with Gareth? "Good morning Lord Harris! I'm a huge fan of you! " Erina greeted and my sister blushed, ah I don't know why but I guess he has a soft spot for sweet girls. "Oh thank you… Princess?" I almost wanted to laugh because he didn't know Erina, someone called Harris again "Ah Pardon me Prince Gareth and Princess, I'm leaving." Harris said goodbye to us so Mel and I sat down and ignored Gareth, HAYYS I just said I hope we don't meet. Yet here we are. "MY SAVIORR! GOOD MORNING! " hays, i just said. Another troublesome dude. King greeted me that surprised me, what? Why isn't he with Erina? I saw King look away from Erina and immediately approached me. What is it doing !? "G-Good morning Lord King." That's weird, even earlier when he was in trouble. He's not with Erina either, are they fighting? Also I forgot to explain why they're popular. First is Gareth Oval, of course he is famous because he is supposed to be the next owner of the school if he's going to be the King. He's taking the royalty course. Hays it's good I didn't die when I punched him yesterday. Next is King Leigh Aquaz, he's popular because he's good at combat, good at martial arts and probably taking the Knight course. Last is Magnus Dean Lennon, a child prodigy, genius and good at magic. Like literally good to good, his death was a shock because he was the strongest of them all. Also where is that? why is he not here in the gymnasium? "P-Prince Gareth, let's sit in the front." Erina replied while looking at Gareth's case it looks like Gareth's brain is flying here. But he's staring at Mel though… Did it stare at Mel or the chair next to Mel? I mean it's empty, no one is sitting. Where is it really staring? If Erina hadn't just pulled Gareth, it wouldn't have left her place. "You must be princess Melusine! Good morning Princess! " "Oh hello, you must be Lord King. The famous knight they're talking about, nice to meet you. " Mel greeted him and King nodded. "I'm honored that you know me." "So my savior! Can I sit next to "Sorry this seat's taken, don't be on the princess's side." I almost wanted to shout out loud because Magnus suddenly appeared in the empty seat next to me. "Lord Magnus !?" JUSKOOO NAMAAANNN- I just said that right ?! I hope I never see them again !? To distance oneself from bias and other characters !? "What !? hey you are very rude really. I was the first- "Magnus smirked while crossing his arm. "Too bad, I was the first to sit down." I can't believe… why are they like this !? Is it because of what happened yesterday? What is happening in this world- "Oh Hello Princess Melusine, sorry for what happened yesterday. I shouldn't have switched with the Prince if I only knew that you were in bad terms. " He said sorry but the sorry he said to Mel was not sincere, I don't think he regret switching. "It's ok Lord Magnus!" I was just slapped on the forehead, early in the morning. First day after first day, my energy is immediately drained. Is this what Mel is saying? "Hey-" "WELCOME 1ST YEAR STUDENTS TO OVAL ACADEMY!" we both looked at the stage and saw an old man. "I am the headmaster, Lord Achilles is my name." King had no choice but to sit down, Magnus smiled even more since he won. so they can stay young… I would have liked to listen to the program, in case my brain was thinking something else. Like 'Am I really like that to be punished like this?' Or 'Am I punished?' Or 'Why am I here?' Because destiny doesn't agree with me, maybe it's not hard to stay away, right? But they came willingly so what can I do? Will I run Mel the next time we encounter another character? Or should we just drop out and live somewhere? Or disguise? That's a good plan so that these people won't really bother us anymore. Mel will really die if they get too close to us. Not only that, I will never be able to return to my own world again. "Hey, the program is over, what else are you wondering about?" Rios asked so my flying brain came back to me. I looked at him. "Come on Lady Hera, big brother Harris said this-he's touring us." "Oh can I come? There is no class. " Magnus intruded. Mel laughed and applauded and nodded. Mel turned to me and secretly winked. why is she winking? He winked again and again, does he have eye pain? "Can I come too?" "Sure! The more the merrier! " I never thought that Mel was so active, why did she agree ?! What is my plan? naghiyawan naman ang dalawang to… why are they even here? I regret talking to them, I wish I hadn't talked to them. I would have had no problem now. To be continued...
