The sun was right overhead, the clock was showing 12 o'clock exactly. The morning classes are over, it's time to take a break.
Me, Natasha, Alexandria, Dani and Raihan. Or you could say, all students in class A. Go out of the classroom, go to the cafeteria.
While in the cafeteria, the five of us ordered the food we liked. Fortunately, there is an empty dining table. So that we, students of class A, can sit at the dining table together.
Before the morning class started, Raihan immediately lowered his head as we entered the classroom. He thanked me for helping him fight his father in a duel.
All I did was accept her gratitude.
Although it has been recognized by his father, it does not mean that Raihan's relationship with his family improved. In fact, according to the story he told this morning, his relationship with his family even more awkward.
Even from the story, he did not have any conversation with his family at breakfast this morning.
I can justify this.
Given what the Raihan family has done to him up to this point, it will be difficult to improve his relationship with his family which was already bad from the beginning.
If compared, Raihan's relationship like glass broke. It can't be fixed with just a glue. The broken glass that, when put together, will still be seen the glass cracks.
I can not liken the Raihan family as it really is, because of the existence of magic in this day and age, which can reverse the law of entropy to repair broken glass. But my landing is also not entirely wrong, as none of the magic can repair a fractured family relationship.
The way to improve a relationship that is already like that is just to throw away the existing self-esteem, and forgive each other. Forgetting everything that happened... That's not an easy thing to do either.
From Raihan's story, it seems that his father and his two brothers have forgiven Raihan. But Raihan, who had been treated badly, felt sorry they were just empty words now.
Raihan must have thought, why did his father not do that a long time ago. Why just now apologize? The feelings of disappointment, hatred, anger, and all the negative emotions that Raihan suffered to his family really reached their peak when he had a duel with his father yesterday.
Honestly, I don't really care about Raihan and his family. And also I already know, it will definitely be like this the final result we get.... But it seems that this final result does not satisfy Dani, he is disappointed with the relationship Raihan and his family that does not immediately improve. Although disappointed, Dani is still being realistic, accepting this final result as it is.
I'm not disappointed by the end result, because from the beginning, my goal wasn't to help Raihan improve his relationship with his family. But to help Raihan control his transformation magic... If Raihan can control his magic well, I will be satisfied with this final result.
While remembering what happened this morning, I continued to bribe my food into my mouth. Unlike usual, today everyone was eating their food quietly. Not interspersed with light conversation. Thanks to this, we were able to quickly finish off our food within five minutes.
"As we discussed in a group chat last night. Let's go to the field." Said Alexandria, as she finished off her drink.
"Huh...? Group Chat...? Since when do we have group chat...?"
Despite the confusion in my head, Alexandria, Raihan, and Dani moved out of their seats.
Natasha and I stared at each other, from her expression that was as confused as mine, it seemed that Natasha also did not know about the group chat that Alexandria meant.
"Mira, Natasha, what are you doing? Let's go to the field." Take Alexandria, whose position is already a little far from the table where we eat.
Natasha and I got out of our seats, walking closer to our classmates. From the front of the canteen, we walked down the school corridor until we finally reached the outside of the school building. From here, we continued walking until we got to the back yard of the school building.
"Since when do we have group chat?" Ask me, while we were out in the field.
"Ah... I forgot to put you two in a group chat." Said Alexandria, with a face as if she had realized a great mistake.
So it's just me and Natasha who haven't been in the chat group they've created...
With a long sigh, I can immediately guess since when my classmates made the chat group.
It must have been the answer when Raihan was treated in the treatment room... I really didn't know myself at all Alexandria. Though he should have been able to put us in a group chat immediately when he apologized to me. I mean... How many weeks ago, and she just remembered now that Natasha and I had not been included in the group Chat!
"Yeah... You know, the atmosphere was still awkward, and also we immediately focused on training Raihan, so this thing was missed in my head... Sorry yeah..." Said Alexandria with regret.
"Give up" I said. "Then, what are we doing on this field?"
"To test Raihan's magic."
"Hmmm...."
Raihan went to the middle of the field, did a little warm-up before finally, he got ready to activate his magic.
Raihan closed his eyes, gathering focus. He then inhaled a large amount of air from his nose which he then expelled through his mouth. He did that a few times.
Once he feels himself ready. Raihan immediately collected a sufficient number of Carlania particles, after which he inserted the program into the Carlania particles he had collected. This immediately affected the mutated cells in his body, instantly making Raihan's body transform into a bull within a few seconds.
"I succeeded! Haha... I did not lose consciousness! Mooo!" With a heavy voice, like the sound of a bull, Raihan said happily while jumping up and down with all four legs.
He was so happy, he was finally able to use his transformation magic well.
This made Dani and Alexandria smile with relief. The two of them applauded Raihan's achievement.
"Thank you Mira. It's all thanks to your help." Said Raihan while nodding his bull head.
Hearing Raihan's thanks, making my mouth bend slightly upwards, let out a small smile. Although there is no sense of pride or happiness when I see my friend succeed in doing this achievement, but I am relieved and grateful for all the effort and time I have spent training Raihan to get to this stage.
I feel like all the effort I've put in has paid off by breakeven. Although I had thought that everything I did would end up in vain because of the incident in the treatment room a few weeks ago, I was truly relieved and grateful, knowing that all my efforts were not in vain in helping him.
"Either. Now all you have to do is develop your magic." I said to Raihan.
"Good Mira. I'll do it."
Raihan without refuting or rejecting, immediately obey my words. This got me thinking, does the brainwashing I did on her still have an effect? If it's still influential, I don't know how to remove its influence. There's no harm in my brainwashing, isn't it? In this way, I can have subordinates that I can command as I please.
Thinking of this possibility, it once again made a smile etched into my mouth.
Satisfied to see Raihan having fun with his bull form, I turned my gaze towards Natasha. He was unlike the others, who smiled as he looked at Raihan who managed to perform transformation magic. Surprisingly, Natasha's expression upon seeing Raihan perform transformation magic was.... Panicking...?
I'm not sure, but one thing is for sure, Natasha's face showed a different expression than ours. Curious, I also asked him about the reason why he expressed it that way.
"What's up Natasha? You're not happy with Raihan's achievement?"
"Well... E-eees... Uuhmh... Of course I'm happy, I'm really happy..."
"Then why are you expressing yourself like that?"
"....Raihan used his uniform while transforming... Is that okay? Isn't there a lesson after this?"
"..... Uh..."
Everyone was silent at Natasha's words, before finally our heads seemed to be slapped by a hard object that immediately reminded us of it. We could only look at Natasha's face blankly, with a stare that looked like a fool.
Fortunately, Raihan was allowed to wear sportswear during the afternoon classes. On his return, he immediately requested a new uniform from our homeroom teacher. And fortunately again, the uniform was immediately made by the academy, but for the matter of the process of making this uniform, Raihan did not benefit.
The Raihan uniform takes up to 3 full days to manufacture. So for the rest of the week, he spent class time in a gym uniform, until Monday arrived, until he could actually use the academy uniform again.

"Hmmm.... It had been almost two months since the new students had entered this academy. But nothing interesting happened."
"What do you expect? It's only natural that nothing happens. After all, they have only been in this academy for two months. To recall the entire building in the academy alone was not enough in such a short amount of time. Given how vast this academy is."
"Oh...? In my old days, we students, were already messing up when the first month entered this academy."
"Haaaah.... I told you, don't compare your times and your times."
"Well, whatever it is... I'm still bored, do you have any ideas to get rid of my boredom?"
"..... Actually, there's one in my head.... It's just, I'm not sure this is the right time to start."
"eeeeehs... Whatisit? Tell me!"
"Games between classes. It's tradition, isn't it? To do that. But like I said, now is not the right time to start."
"It's okay, just start. What good is it to delay it."
"But... Isn't it normal for a match to take place after a midterm repeat? There's still a month more before the midterms are done."
"It's okay, just start. The sooner the better, after all, our goal is to carry out these activities to develop the talents of the students, right? Just start as soon as you can."
"Uugh... You can't-.... Haaaa... I will take care of the problem, although I am not sure I can start the activity in the near future. Give me three weeks to prepare."
"alright... I leave it to you then, fufufu... Now, let's see how this new student comforts me, even more so that little girl... I hope he comforts me just like he did in the entrance exam. Fufufu..."
