Against the Inevitable Destiny

Chapter 18 - Introducing Yourself

[1 Hour later ]

After the lecture session, Scarlet-senpai and I went to class.

Why do I still call him Senpai?

Because he won't be able to hear it, so just think of it that way.

When we got to class, we heard some whispers from some students, especially women. They may be wondering who I am.

I don't bother with any of that, I'm used to it anyway.

Their voices were actually quite small, but since my hearing was quite sharp, I could hear them quite clearly.

Not all the women whispered to each other, some were just looking at me with curious eyes.

As for the men, they looked at me with sharp gazes. Really, do they not realize that what they do will actually lower their image?

I know they're jealous, but come on. If they try or at least do something, they will also get attention.

After all, appearance is just one of the attractions.

At least that's what I think.

While I was busy thinking, at the same time, I continued to listen to what the girls said.

"Hey, who's that handsome guy."

"See, this is the first time I've seen her, but since she's wearing our school uniform, she's probably a new student."

"You think she has a boyfriend?"

"I don't know, still I hope not."

"I also think that way."

Well, that's the kind of talk I hear.

Oh yes, I also saw a smiling Mei and slightly waved her hand at me.

If people saw him smile, they might be surprised because he rarely smiled. It was a pity that their attention was on me, so only I could enjoy her smile.

As I enjoyed Mei's smile, Scarlet-senpai began to speak,

"Consider everything. He's a new student, now he'll be your classmate."

Scarlet senpai spoke to the disciples, her tone was quite firm and straightforward.

Once again I thought, she was very different from the beautiful, graceful, and seductive senpai before.

After Scarlet senpai got the students' attention, she started looking at me then said,

"Include yourself." (cold tone)

Is he still angry?

"Okay Scarlet sen - sen - sei."

Huh..I almost called him senpai, fortunately I remembered him in time. Otherwise, I would have been beaten again by him. I don't want that.

Just so you know, the punch is really painful, even I who have been practicing for quite a long time still feel the pain. He might be a former special agent or something to gain such power. Or maybe he's just like me who trained hard enough because of the current state of the world.

"Good morning everyone, my name is Riyu, I am a transfer student from out of town. Please take care of me from now on." I stopped for a moment and continued. "And thank you for keeping Mei when I wasn't around."

I lowered my head humbly.

And as expected, my words became a bomb to the students. They were wondering, or perhaps not expecting me to say such a thing.

My words made them unable to resist asking about my relationship with Mei.

And I answered honestly that he was my childhood friend and my lover.

Mei herself was quite surprised, but did not deny it. His cheeks were blushing so much that he did not dare to look at his classmates, only nodding when someone asked while turning to the window, looking at the state of affairs outside the school. His expression made the students believe.

Many girls were disappointed, and for the men, they looked at me more intensely. They might not have expected that a cool girl like Mei could have a lover.

Well, not all the men here are pathetic, there is one man who catches my attention, it is a blond man, fair skinned, black eyes, and gives off a little black (dark) energy, looks familiar to me.

And the energy I'm referring to here is a little different, we'll explain later. For now, let's just call him “si blonde head”

To be honest, when I started getting into class, I paid enough attention to it. He's pretty handsome (but not as handsome as me). He had a fairly bright aura in contrast to the energy he was expending. But that's not what caught my attention. What I noticed was her eyes that often looked at Mei.

Is she in love with May? Like I'd let it.

It was also what made me announce my relationship with Mei, so that no "insects" would bother her.

And just like that, I was told to sit by Scarlet senpai in a tone colder than before.

[After the Lesson Finished]

"Riyu san, is it true that you're Mei's boyfriend?"

After the class ended, I was mobbed by many people. They may still have questions especially my relationship with Mei.

"Yes." Yeah."

I answered him with a few short sentences. Actually this chatter was not entirely in vain because I got some information from them.

For example, Mei's personality was quite famous even though she was a new student here.

She might be the most beautiful woman in this academy, but what caught the attention of others was her cold and indifferent expression.

Even the rumored handsome prince fell in love with Mei, also having trouble interacting with her.

And you know who that handsome prince is? That's right, he's the "blonde head"

Well, I also got some other information like the situation in the academy, some interesting buildings, and so on.

I already knew that from the book I read.

‘By the way where is May?’

"Ah sorry I have to find Mei. We'll talk next time."

Without waiting for their answer, I directly barged out and ran.
