Chapter 204: Come and learn swordsmanship, Witch!

It must be said that riding a giant red dragon to school was still too shocking for Yukina. The aftereffects were so strong that she couldn’t calm down even after sitting in her seat for a long time.

As if in a surreal dream, Yukina sat at her desk in a daze for half a day before finally recovering her senses.

No, to be precise, it was under the call of the first period teacher that she finally eased out of the dizziness and vertigo that had plagued her.

Suddenly called upon by the teacher, she stood up bewildered, and then sat back down to the laughter of her classmates. At this moment, Yukina couldn’t help but feel resentment toward Charlotte, who had caused all this.

If she had known, she would have just run to school. Even if she ended up being late, at least she wouldn’t have to suffer through the mental torment of dizziness and nausea.

Watching Yukina stand up and sit back down dazedly under the teacher’s call, Charlotte, who was sitting in the front row by the window, couldn’t help but reveal a slight smile.

Clearly, Yukina was fine now, so she didn’t need to worry anymore.

Charlotte then turned to look out the window.

How long had it been since she had seen such a sight?

After fifteen years, she had become the strongest Star Witch in another world, yet she had returned to the real world to resume her old life, sitting in a classroom and daydreaming as an ordinary high school student. It was actually quite amusing.

But it was no big deal. After all, she really had nothing better to do right now. Rather than staying at home alone and being bored, she might as well come to this bustling school and go crazy with Yukina.

No, she wasn’t alone anymore; Lillian was with her now.

After she left the other world, Lillian had discovered Feiye Zhenhong’s disappearance. To inform her of this, she had bravely stepped into the void rift, coming to this strange world to search for her.

Although she didn’t know why Lillian had arrived a month earlier than her, she was glad that they had reunited safely in the end.

Since Lillian was with her, even if she didn’t come to school, she wouldn’t feel bored at home, would she?

Wait a minute, why didn’t she think of it differently? She could just let Lillian come to school here too and enjoy the real world’s campus life with her.

It wasn’t complicated to get Lillian a student identity, just like how she got her own.

That way, Lillian would have a reason not to show up at that “Esper organization.”

Speaking of which, she didn’t quite trust that Esper organization. Although they had taken Lillian in, after learning Lillian’s true identity, it was hard to say they wouldn’t have some ulterior motives.

And that black-haired president was also of a very mysterious origin. It would be nice if they could become allies, but could they really be trusted?

Charlotte pondered these questions while gazing at the clear blue sky through the window.

Speaking of which, the weather was really nice today.

“Eh? Wait a minute, what did you say?” Charlotte asked Aiba Mika, who was standing before her in a kendo uniform with a wooden sword over her shoulder, in utter shock.

“Hmm? You didn’t hear me? I said, I’ll be your kendo master and teach you the most basic sword techniques. Once you master them, you should be able to fight on even terms with our Yukina!”

Mika raised her eyebrows, looking nonchalant about Charlotte’s question.

Hearing Mika’s response, Charlotte couldn’t help but look distressed.

When noon came, Charlotte, as usual, followed Yukina to the Kendo Club to show her face.

However, because of her brilliant performance in the match against Clover Academy yesterday, the moment she appeared, she was surrounded by a large group of Kendo Club members, treated like a mascot, which caught Charlotte off guard and made her unable to cope.

Fortunately, Mika, the first-rank member of the club, stepped in to rescue her. Just as she was about to thank Mika, Mika suddenly turned to her and started talking about yesterday’s match.

“Kanon-chan, your performance yesterday was really amazing! I’ve already watched the match recording. You almost effortlessly eliminated the first six opponents from the other academy. But when you fought the seventh opponent, you couldn’t keep up with their rhythm. It must be because you haven’t seriously studied sword techniques! But don’t worry, it’s not too late to practice now. With me, the first-rank member of the Kendo Club, personally teaching you, you’ll become as skilled as Yukina in no time, and maybe even surpass her as a swordsman!”

“You’re going to teach me sword techniques? Seriously? Aren’t I just a nominal member?”

A nominal member didn’t have to participate in the Kendo Club’s training; they only needed to check in on time every day.

Charlotte had become a nominal member for this very reason. She never expected to be treated as a formal member and participate in training one day.

If Mika hadn’t been absent from yesterday’s match, she wouldn’t have stepped onto the stage to show off in order to fill the gap in their combat power.

Logically, Mika should be thanking her, but why was she repaying her kindness with a grudge and giving her homework now?

“Seeing how small and cute Kanon-chan is, I, as the strongest member of this Kendo Club, naturally have to discipline her properly.”

Saying this, Mika gave Charlotte a mischievous smile.

Charlotte felt her future suddenly plunge into darkness. She quickly turned to look at Yukina, who was putting on her protective gear not far away, seeking her protection.

“Oh? You want Yukina to teach you sword techniques? I’m sorry, but Yukina has already handed you over to me. Her idea was for me to train you with an iron fist!”

“What?” Hearing this, Charlotte’s eyes widened in shock. “Yukina, why did you betray me? I don’t want to participate in training!”

“Alright, alright, don’t complain. Yukina is doing this for your own good! If you had practiced your sword skills before, you wouldn’t have been defeated so quickly in the last match!”

Saying this, Mika tossed Charlotte a wooden sword.

“You don’t need to wear protective gear. The Kendo Club doesn’t have your size, and you don’t seem to need it anyway. Alright, now, let’s learn how to swing a sword properly!”

“No way!”
