Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer



[Zoe's POV: ]

"Hello~."

"Hmmm?"

"Hello~."

"H-hello!"

"Hello~."

"Hey, captain!"

"Hello~."

"What-… oh, hey."

"Is there any reason to do this?"

"Yes~. A very profound one!"

Answering the simple question of my sister, friend, sister-in-law, fellow student, and house captain, I returned to what I was doing.

"Hello~."

"Hello~!"

"Hello~."

"Ummm. Hello?"

"Hello~."

"Hello, gorgeous ladies. How goes-"

"Hello~."

"Ptfff. Yes, hello."

We were walking towards our class on the second floor of the academy building and right now, we were walking in the big hallway that wasn't crowded with many people.

Our destination was naturally the energy beast research classroom on the northeastern side of the castle and as we walked towards our class, as always, I was saying hello to everyone~!

It was a usual thing I did so many of the students were already used to this thing by now. And yes there was a deep reason to do this, but mostly, it was something I did because it was fun!

"We are here Zoe. Let's go."

"Yes~!"

I could see some more students coming towards this us from the other side and I wanted to say hello to them too but we had arrived, so I just waved at them, and they waved back, confused as to why I even did that.

'Hehe.'

"Where do we s-"

"Hello~ everyone!"

Everyone looked at us as soon as I said that and though there were a little more than fifty people here right now, not everyone was that shocked by this greeting of mine.

"Hello, Lady Zoe."

"Lady Zoe! Hello~!"

"Tsk."

There were many reactions from the students present but the most common reaction was ignorance.

'They ignored me~. Hehe, cute people.'

But there were many that greeted me back and I waved at everyone as we sat on the very front seats.

It was sister Elle's and big brother's usual way to sit at the very back but he wasn't there so she had to sit at the front with me~.

And this classroom was different from our homerooms too so there was a unique sitting arrangement.

In our homeroom classrooms, the seats were divided into two sides, the left one and the right one.

Both sides had three rows of long seats where three to six students could sit comfortably.

But in this classroom, there were no two sides, and the classroom itself was smaller than the other classes.

But, different from many other classes, this classroom was made to show the students many different things about the energy beasts and their habitats, so the entire room was made with a special material, was covered in special enchantments, and they had even used runes to make this one as perfect as it was right now.

The walls of the room were white but they were shiny, almost as if metallic. And the ground was the same, but it was black.

There was no blackboard in this classroom as we would be seeing things directly but the students here didn't know that for now.

They actually didn't know many things, and it was better to not know than know too much. 

"Haaa…"

I sighed, and sister Elle looked at me with surprise as that sigh had come out of the blue.

"Everything alright?"

"Yeah. Just had a thought."

She looked at me with narrow eyes as I had said that with a warm smile and her next words were obvious, but I still waited for her to say it.

"Do you like someone, Zoe? There doesn't seem to be anyone proper in this class aside from Prince Claudius though?"

This sister Elle of mine was cute. It was no wonder big brother loved her that much.

"Hehe, of course, I don't like anyone. And don't say there is no one proper in this class like that. From what I can tell…"

I looked around the class, and the way I looked at the world, the world in my eyes, the unique world represented in many colorful elements, abstract shapes, and materialistic forms entered my eyes.

'The room was made of blue color mixed with many other colorful particles, there were some red orbs in the corner of the classes, hidden beneath the blue light, and everyone in the class also looked unique from others.'

My sister Elle looked the same as she looked when we first met, but the boundaries she had were now sharper, and more vivid, and the dark night sky full of colorful stars she possessed back then, was now a vivid, abstract shape that though seemed endless, was certainly prettier~!

Then there was Prince Claudius, someone who fell for someone he could never have, and also someone who was some of the most miserable among the many I had come across in this short life of mine.

He had light, he was made of light. But there was a thin layer of darkness covering his moon-like heart.

There were colors inside him, colors brighter than others, and colors more sincere than most others.

But they were shrouded in a dark curtain. A dark curtain that wasn't his own, and its owner was also unknown to anyone.

It was also unknown if he will ever find someone to lift that curtain and reveal the light he possessed…

But there was light, and light always finds its way.

'But I hope he doesn't have to go through the same thing he had gone through once again. He deserves something. Something better, someone that can finally give him what he longed for so long…'

He was pitiful and lonely, and still, he hadn't lost his light. Which was admirable.

He was definitely amazing, but then there was the person that sat at the very back, his head on the table, his pink hair reminding me of my aunt Haze.

He was the most special after these two, and his true self that I could see was filled with an endless green garden, with only red flowers so vivid they resembled blood, and above it a sky so… limited, that it felt as if even the winged bird soaring through it could be caught with an extension of one's hand.

It was strange and unique, and gorgeous, and at the same time, dangerous.

And it was still a little blur, so he had many possibilities ahead of him.

'I should tell big brother about this one. But, not now.'

His class was ongoing right now and his teacher had just announced they would have a surprise test so there was no need to disturb him right now.

And our teacher was on her way too, so we only had time till she walked through the corridor and reached the class.

It would be fun seeing her and learning from her but before that, there was one more person in this class that was interesting.

"Uriel. Can you introduce that person to brother when you have time?"

"Hmm? Who- oh? …ohhh? How did we miss someone like him?"

"Probably because the change is new, like very new. Almost as if the person changed overnight. You know…"

"Possession, you say? Interesting…"

She was smiling right now, a smile of interest so rare we hardly ever saw her use it for someone from outside of our family.

It just showed how interesting this person was, and he would definitely be helpful to him so, as his house captain, sister Elle had enough reason to do the introductions.

-Step. Step. Step.

Well, our teacher was here, and her footsteps, not something too loud, were strangely intimidating for the normal students hearing it.

They were unique, not heavy, not sharp but, almost like a hunter, a hunter that was walking towards its prey.

They were inducing fear in the hearts of many students right now, but as soon as she actually walked in through that doorless place, a flower garden bloomed in the small classroom, making most of the hearts beat wildly, painting many cheeks with a blush, and fixing their eyes at a certain place.

'And that certain place wasn't her cleavage or her big breasts but her bare legs that looked too hot to ignore.'

But though most of the eyes were focused on those dangerous legs, some still sane ones like us were definitely seeing her normally, and we knew from that smile she had, those poisonous smirking teeth, those three snakes wrapped around her neck, and that ferocious aura around her that, she was a hunter… and we were her prey.

"What up children~! How ya doin'~?"

Or probably not.
