Otherworld Adventure

Cecil didn"t mind the gazes and took his seat beside Ainz, he took out his MID and quickly began fiddling with it.

Lucia was about to drag Fina along with her and take their seats in front of Cecil and Ainz, but before she could a lizardkin girl with golden locks and black horns approached her.

"h.e.l.lo, Lucia. My name is Elizabeth, nice to meet you." The lizardkin introduced proudly.

"h.e.l.lo Elizabeth, as you already know I"m Lucia! The one beside me is Fina!" Lucia replied with a smile while also introducing Fina who was next to her.

"I"m Aquafina Oceania..." Fina introduced herself and then she added hesitantly, "...nice to meet you Elizabeth...Arks, I presume?"

"Oyah? Well, I guess you would know since you"re a Neftersea." Elizabeth wasn"t all that surprised when Fina exposed her last name. She already knew who Fina was at a glance.

"...yes." Fina said, her eyes darkening a little. The rest of the cla.s.s other than Lucia and Cecil exclaimed when they listened to the two girls" exchange.

Lucia saw Fina"s reaction and furrowed her brows a bit then she asked worriedly, "What"s up Fina?"

"Eh? Lulu, you don"t know?"

Lucia tilted her head in confusion.

"Hm? Know what?"

Elizabeth looked at her incredulously and asked, "That means you don"t know about me either?"

Lucia thought hard for a bit then replied, "I don"t think I"ve ever met you before~ so should I know you?"

Elizabeth was a bit dumbfounded. In Angla city, everyone knew of what the name "Arks" represented, so it puzzled her since Lucia who was the first ranked student didn"t know who she actually was.

She found it refreshing and when she saw the urgent and meaningful gaze Fina was directing at her, Elizabeth smiled and said.

"Never mind, it"s nothing. Well, if you don"t mind me asking, is it alright if we became friends?"

Lucia smiled brightly when she heard her, "Of course! Hehe~ the more friends the merrier! Come, I"ll introduce you to Ainz and Cel~"

Lucia was in high spirits and she grabbed both Fina and Elizabeth"s hands and walked towards where Ainz and Cecil were sitting at.

The rest of the cla.s.s was surprised at seeing Lucia brazenly grab and drag the princess of the Anglaria Kingdom with her.

Upon arriving at the boys" seats, Lucia was about to introduce the two boys to her new friend, but Ainz had abruptly stood up when he saw Elizabeth.

"Ah, prin–" Before Ainz could continue talking, he immediately stopped when he sensed the urgent glare that Elizabeth shot him. She then made a slight gesture towards him and then Ainz continued talking.

"Elizabeth... long time no see." He said forcefully.

"Yes, it"s been a long time indeed Ainz." Elizabeth replied

"Oh! So you already know each other?"

Elizabeth smiled and replied to Lucia, "Yes, you could say we were... childhood playmates, right Ainz?"

Seeing the meaningful glare she directed at him for a split second, Ainz nervously replied, "Yes, yes. We are indeed childhood friends."

Ainz carefully chose his words when replying. Although he felt that he chose his words correctly, he was still sweating nervously inside.

Ainz was smart. So from their brief exchanges earlier, he knew that the princess didn"t want her ident.i.ty exposed to Lucia. Although it didn"t matter since the rest of the cla.s.s knew, so it puzzled Ainz since the genius Lucia should also know who Elizabeth was.

Lucia smiled when she saw that the two were already acquainted, she pulled on Elizabeth and brought her before Cecil.

"This is Cecil– Eh, wait... Cel, what"re you doing?" Lucia eyed the seemingly busy Cecil.

Cecil was currently fiddling with his MID and didn"t pay attention to anything that was going on around him, so obviously he didn"t see Elizabeth and Ainz"s previous exchange.

Cecil looked up when he heard Lucia call him. He smiled foolishly and replied.

"I"m looking at what other things we could do with the MID!"

"...all the functions were clearly explained in the manual... just read that you idiot!"

"But Lulu, practice makes perfect, there"s no way I"ll understand how to use this thing if I just rely on the manual."

Lucia facepalmed listening to Cecil"s reasoning. She then remembered that Elizabeth was next to her, so she awkwardly introduced them.

"Cel, this is Elizabeth Arks, she wanted to become our new friend!" Lucia then turned towards Elizabeth and said, "Eli, uhm, it"s okay if I call you that right? Elizabeth is a bit long ehehe~ The idiot here is Cecil!"

Elizabeth first replied to Lucia question, "I don"t mind Lucia. I"d prefer it if you called me that."

She then turned towards Cecil and said, "My name is Elizabeth Arks. Like Lucia, you can call me Eli. It"s nice to meet you Cecil!"

"Likewise Eli." Cecil said with a smile. Before the group could continue talking, a middle aged male beastkin walked into the cla.s.sroom.

"Alright cla.s.s, quiet down and take your seats so we can begin homeroom already!" the man said with his gruff voice.

Everyone in cla.s.s S quickly quieted down and took their seats. The cla.s.s" interior was shaped so that the farther you are from the front of the cla.s.s, the more elevated you were. It was shaped like this so even if you sat at the back, you could still have a clear view of the teacher who was at the front of the cla.s.s.

Cecil and Ainz were seated at the back and topmost level of the cla.s.s, a level below them sat Fina, Lucia, and Eli with Lucia being sandwiched in the middle of the two. It was pretty s.p.a.cious so it could definitely hold at least one more person, but no one approached to sit down beside them.

The same went for Ainz and Cecil. It was only the two of them seated on their row at the back. It wasn"t that the group didn"t want others to intrude on them, but it was more like the atmosphere and aura of the group that made them somewhat unapproachable.

When everyone took their seats the cla.s.sroom felt a bit empty since it was too s.p.a.cious for just 25 students. With the cla.s.sroom"s capacity, it could easily hold 40 to 50 students.

Seeing as everyone had taken their seats, the instructor opened his mouth to introduce himself.

"Name"s Gongfu Jin, you can all call me Instructor Jin and I"ll be this year"s S-cla.s.s" homeroom teacher! I hope we all get along!" Instructor Jin said with a smile while gazing one by one at all the students in his cla.s.s.

"Without further ado, let"s begin with today"s fist activity. Introductions! So! Who wants to go first?"

Everyone was a bit hesitant, so the instructor took the liberty of choosing one of the students himself.

"Why don"t we have our first year"s representative go first?" He said while eyeing Lucia.

Lucia sighed seeing as she had no other choice. She quickly stood up and introduced herself.

"h.e.l.lo everyone, my name is Lucia Yukihime." She bowed towards the cla.s.s and was about to sit down before the instructor said dully, "Is that it? Just your name? Come on Lucia! You could do better than that! Give us a splendid introduction!"

Lucia was a bit taken aback. She thought for a while before continuing.

"I"m an initial mana core stage spell caster as well as a B rank warrior."

Then, Lucia wordlessly lifted both her hands. 3 b.a.l.l.s of water with streaks of ice and steam rotated on her left hand while on her right hand floated a globe of fire with lava circling around it.

"As a spell caster, my main attributes are fire and water." She flicked her hands and the b.a.l.l.s of water and fire blinked out of existence. She then grabbed both her weapons and continued.

"As a fighter, I fight using my katana and kodachi... that"s all. Thank you." She then kept her weapons and bowed once again before taking her seat.

Instructor Jin enthusiastically clapped his hands and it prompted everyone else in cla.s.s to give Lucia applause. "Now that"s more like it! Alright everyone, remember to put in as much flare as Lucia did with your intros!"

The instructor was really spirited. He then called out to the second ranked student in the cla.s.s.

But, after calling out for a while no one in cla.s.s stood up, so Lucia took a glance back at Cecil and saw that he was preoccupied with his MID.

The boy still hadn"t finished fiddling around with it!

"Oe, Cel. Cel!"

"Huh? What? What"s up Lulu?"

"Instructor Jin called for you!"

Cecil looked up and saw that the instructor was indeed looking at him. He was also smiling while waiting patiently. Cecil realized his blunder and stood up ramrod straight and stiffly introduced himself.

"I"m Cecil Silvaria! Intermediate Mana Sea stage! A rank warrior! Please treat me well!"

Instructor Jin chuckled seeing how awkward Cecil was acting.

"It"s alright there Cecil. I"m a patient person, but it would do you well if you paid attention alright? Not every instructor is as patient as I!"

"Yes, Instructor!"

"Haha, alright take your seat now. Next! Third rank!"

Cecil sighed and immediately took his seat. Lucia who was in front of him giggled upon seeing his relieved face.
