The date is April 1st, the time is eight o'clock in the morning, and the location is the largest monorail station in the "Seventh School District".
It has been almost two months since Frenda and Fremia arrived in this "Academy City", because they arrived at a very embarrassing time at the end of January, when most schools were still finishing their preparations for exams.
At this stage, when Kumokawa Seria asked Flanda about her willingness to enroll in school, she also temporarily 'reserved her opinion'.
This will give them plenty of time to get used to living in "Academy City".
Except for Fremia, who is cheating for food by being cute at home all day long, packing luggage, buying furniture, getting familiar with the environment, checking out schools... In the past two months, Frenda has basically just been an 'ordinary international student'
Various duties that need to be handled complete the transformation of identity as a member of "Academy City".
As for using hacking techniques to 'take a look' at the upper-level library, find a certain unlucky pick-up artist to 'chat' with, and 'walk around' around a building with no doors or windows, in her opinion, these are all acts of seeking death.
After finally integrating smoothly into this place, Flanda still has a good idea of how much ability she has and what kind of role she should 'play' before the time comes.
Right now, she doesn't have the strength to overturn the "chessboard".
That's all.
…
"...Fremia, remember everything I told you before, right?"
After adjusting the slightly crooked light red beret that her sister was wearing, Flanda confirmed again in an admonishing tone before the train arrived.
"Yeah, sister really likes to worry too much, meow!"
She turned her body left and right happily, then looked at the schoolbag with the cute pendant tied on it. After confirming the "equipment", Fremia put on a look like "I really can't stand you."
There is absolutely no awareness of facing one's own "food, clothing, parents".
"What's the answer?"
"...Yes, I have memorized everything."
Looking at the smiling face that turned gloomy in front of her, the little girl immediately became 'well-behaved' as the 'crisis alarm' was blaring, and even her oral habit was corrected by 'force majeure'.
——"Do not accept any invitations from the "Institute"."
This is the only restriction Flanda puts on Fremia.
Even if she is only at Level 1, in the eyes of those researchers, Fremia, as a "raw stone", is also an extremely rare "material", and there are likely to be some "weird uncles, weird aunties" and other characters around her.
To deceive such an inexperienced young girl.
At least Frenda herself has received many calls inviting her to participate in research under the guise of 'improving abilities' and 'generous scholarships'.
Although the so-called 'capacity development' does not show any abnormality now, this is the headquarters of the Hanged Man. Who knows if there is a 'conspiracy' hidden in it.
"Contributing" one's body to a superpower that is dispensable and has no clear meaning is completely unnecessary in Frenda's opinion.
This is also the main reason why she disguised herself as a "raw stone".
"People with natural abilities" are originally created without artificial intervention, so many research reports on "Original Stones" in "Academy City" have proposed not to destroy "Original Stones" through "conventional ability development methods"
’ is a statement supported by many people.
Therefore, even if they do not participate in any ability development projects, through the explanation that "sisters from a foreign country" may not feel safe here, and in addition, it was discovered by the director Kaitoshi Kaizumi, an expert on "raw stones".
Hidden background makes perfect sense.
And if Fremia really wants to improve her 'ability', she only needs to come back to her sister to unlock the 'insurance', and then ask Yui to re-simulate the 'AIM diffusion field' with the corresponding value. Although she
I don’t know this either, and I just don’t have this awareness.
After sending her sister into the carriage, Flanda, who was watching the train go away, could finally start her 'daily life'.
After all, today is not only Fremia's freshman orientation day, but also the day when she is going to report to a new school.
Anyway, Yui is still taking care of her over there, so if an emergency occurs, she can be contacted immediately.
It would be better if you don't get lost when you go home.
With worries that might become reality, Frenda walked to the other side of the platform.
When someone arrives at the designated campus according to the notice received, it seems that the opening ceremony is still going on here.
During the boring time spent waiting in the teacher's office, the foreign girl sorted out the current situation and had no choice but to let her thoughts run wild.
Sometimes I think about it, ‘habit’ is really a terrible thing.
Having spent decades of various lives as a 'female', now 'she' can naturally wear the girls' uniform of this middle school.
The only thing that makes 'her' happy and incredible is that until this life, 'she' can still clearly retain the 'consciousness of the male period', which is the most important conclusion.
But every time I think of the mention in many myths and legends that the concept of "gender" does not exist for real gods, "she" will have a "creepy" feeling...
…
"...transfer student?"
"This period?!"
"That's right! It is said that it comes from Northern Europe!"
"What level will it be?"
In a common school named "Zhachuan Middle School", in a class for entering the third grade of junior high school, most of the students were whispering among themselves.
The opening ceremony has just ended, and this year is the last year for the entrance examination. Normally, there will be no transfer students.
When some well-informed classmates said that he seemed to be a foreigner, their curiosity became even more agitated.
"...Okay, please come in."
Probably after appeasing her students, the voice of the teacher who was about to become her class teacher came through the door. Flanda Severen, a "15-year-old international student girl" with a complicated mood, walked into the room after not entering for a "long time"
past classroom.
According to the instructions of this good old man with a weak face, called "Teacher Da Yuan", she wrote her name on the blackboard. Even if her back was turned to these children, she could still imagine them from the occasional compliments.
expression.
Frenda rarely cares about her own dress and appearance, but she is still aware that she is above the 'average line' in basically every life.
Moreover, she also has a "special temperament" about her, which in the eyes of these young people, probably becomes an index similar to "charm".
What a superfluous thing.
Not knowing whether to cry or laugh in her heart, she sighed, and the new life of 'Flanda', walking in a different future, began. (To be continued)
