Isekai Journey Of The Magic Archer

Chapter 520 Lunchtime Meeting

?

[OP: ]

-WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

-WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!

Their very first practical class, a joint one at that, had just ended and the students were going out for their lunch break.

It was a cheerful atmosphere all around them and Eon was walking towards a crowd with Carla. As they agreed, they were going for lunch together.

Alf, her brother and the most famous mage among the twelve prodigies was with her and he was also talking with Eon, or more properly, with Lucifer and the three of them were walking towards a particular crowd to pick up their last member.

And the sight before them was surprising to them. At least the two of them weren't expecting something like that just after her first duel. But then again, what she had shown was more than enough to attract all the geeks that loved magic and things related to magic too much.

However, the crowd she was surrounded by wasn't just a crowd of male and female mages, but also many other students that were either noble or common people who just wanted to know more about her.

But more than anything, the crowd of ladies and pretty boys surrounding her was created by a particular young lady with her. A young lady that was just too cute…

"So Med? You like apples?"

"Y-yes. I love apple pies."

"Ohh? Pies? What about peaches and bananas then? They certainly are something everyone has a unique preference for, right? How do you like them?"

"H-how are peaches and bananas related to pies?"

The girl had a blushing face as had understood what she meant from those words but she was so embarrassed that she was red like a rose now… and everyone around the two was enjoying her reactions just as much as Rein.

She was teasing her with different things as they all talked about worldly things that were not only inappropriate and unfit for the place they were in but she knew how to put the most improper things into acceptable words and this show of her teasing an innocent girl that just wanted to learn more about her was too fun to miss out on.

The noble ladies and some gentlemen especially liked this kind of thing and the person she was teasing was famous too so this was even more fun. 

"At least tell us what you like dear~."

"U-ummm… I like o-oranges!"

"Ptfff."

"No, lol, shuuu."

"Khehehe. Oranges or melons?"

"No, no. Quite."

"Ohhh~. Nice, nice. You know what Med? Have lunch with us. My darling makes a reallllllly~ good orange milkshake."

She was smirking and the girl found it not as inappropriate as before but, she was innocent, and so was her reply.

"T-thank you. But I like whole oranges. Especially ones from the Eastern peninsula."

"Ptffff-haha-ahem! Right, the peaches there are pretty juicy too."

"Have you tried the special dumplings from the Wuxia empire's capital? They have some pretty juicy ones."

"Ahem, ahem! Too far people, too far. Some teacher might pop out of nowhere and scold us."

"We are simply talking about fruits and delicacies man. Hehe, quite done, and just listen."

They all looked at her with another flushed expression that was nose-bleedingly adorable.

And Rein wanted to take it further but the three of her lunch partners were there. And from the look of interest her Eon gave her, she knew she had to end this fun session here for the free audience.

"Alright, alright everyone. Looks like my company is here and we are planning to eat in the garden so, see you all later~! 

I will be taking this little pretty adorable Med with me so come to us if you have anything you want to say, propose, or ask, or… if you want to have another fun chat about the fruits, vegetables, and food from all around the world. 

Med knows a lot so she will tell us more about her favorites~."

Her words were discouraging for some mages and also saddening for others but they also knew they couldn't stop her or tell her to continue bullying this cute girl from a famous family.

She was having fun and they were just spectators who hadn't even paid for the tickets to this splendid little show.

But she was going now, and they couldn't let this amazing, fun, and pretty person go just like that.

"Miss Uriel! Do you use Chatbox?! Can we have your ID?"

"What classes are you taking Miss Uriel?!"

"Oh, gorgeous lady. Can I accompany you to your-"

"She is already engaged, dude. And the basic information about her is already available on academy forums."

"Miss! Can you tell us how you were able to pull off that level of magic spell integration, circle alignment, area management, environmental control, designated point release, Mana management, micro time management, and all the calculations required for that?!"

"Can I have your ID miss?!"

"Lady Uriel! Do you play <NO>?!"

"Yes, I do. I also use Chatbox and many other things on the Maginet but the house captains aren't allowed to disclose that for obvious reasons so I can't give you that but, you can tag me on the general chat forum if any of you have any kind of question for me. You all shouldn't accompany me right now as I won't pay any attention to you all during our talk but it was nice meeting you all.

It would be fun if we can have another talk like this and I know we will have a few occasions to do so in the future so for now, excuse me and this pretty little lady."

And after saying all that, she grabbed the girl's hand and masterfully slipped out of the small crowd surrounding her and reached the three of her companions.

"Haaa. Good." She sighed with relief and smiled at the still-flustered girl.

She was a little shorter than Rein, Eon, and Carla, almost the same height as Alf even though she was a year older than Eon. 

Her eyes were dark blue and her pink hair had a hint of dark pink on them.

Her face was little and cute and the clothes she was wearing were a little more attractive than the noble students present in this room.

They were almost like the clothes some of the high royals wore but she wasn't from a royal family. In fact, she wasn't even from a high noble family.

[[ "Of all people in this training ground, you targeted little Media? Do you really have some grudge against Sir Nayer?" ]]

Eon asked with a look that genuinely thought she was a bad girl for doing something like this but, instead of a playful smirk, a surprised expression clouded her face.

[[ "Wait what? She is Media Glory? Grumpy Nay's granddaughter and not some other Media with the same name?" ]]

[[ "You teased her without knowing that?" ]]

Now, there was a sudden surprised expression on his face. He wasn't expecting this kind of answer.

[[ "Wait... no, yes! Damn that's really her!" ]]

[[ "Why are you surprised like that? You just saw her a little more than a year ago. You couldn't have forgotten a pretty face like that, now have you?" ]]

[[ "I thought she looked familiar! But I never got the chance to see her screen as she approached me first and had such a cute look that I couldn't help teasing her!

And she looks totally different from that time! It's not my fault!" ]]

[[ "Yes, yes darling but that's how normal growing up works in this era in the east. But perhaps, this explains the reason she is in your house." ]]

[[ "…well, whatever. Now that I know she is the same Med as that cold, quiet, gloomy one from that time, it would be more fun knowing what changed her so much and how she became thiiiiiiiiis much adorable~!" ]]

[[ "Go easy on her ma'am. I will have to answer Sir Nayer if she is actually bullied because of your actions." ]]

[[ "Nah. She's mine now. No one should dare even think of such foolishness. Only I have the right to tease this pretty one. They would be courting death if they are even having thoughts of doing something like that. And besides…" ]]

She looked beside her and Med, their new friend, who was looking at Carla and Alfred as if she wanted to talk with them, suddenly flinched like a surprised bunny when she sensed her gaze.

"Let's do the talking after we find a good spot. I'm starving already~!" She shouted that loudly and her fiancé before them nodded helplessly.

[[ "She is strong. One of the strongest among the normal students of our batch." ]]

[[ "That certainly is true." ]]

She smiled at him, and he smiled back, causing the girl in question to flinch again as she had just felt something weird.

But still, she was cute. As cute as that cutest short character you love who isn't a loli but just perfectly short and in good shape.

And she was strong too so, well, she was going to be a fun one to see with this bunch.

They were excited to know more about her, know more about how she was so different from the last time they saw her, and Rein was excited to tease her more and see some new reactions from her.

It was rare she found someone as fun as her but she did find this one fun to play with. And she wasn't going to give away what was hers…

But this new friend of theirs wasn't going to face any difficulties anytime soon. 

This was their lunchtime and they were going to eat in the open garden, under the shed of the great ancient tree with the plants, greenery, fresh clear sky… and attractive blue honeybees.
