(Lunchtime)
The door slams open almost a full minute after the bell catching the attention of everyone as Gudako was standing there.
"Gudako? What are you doing here?" Ritsuka asks her little sister with a bit of confusion.
"Ritsuka! I came to visit you!" Gudako announced before running to her older brother's desk. She sees Artoria Alter, Jeanne Alter, and Marie who all had their desks connected to Ritsuka. "Oh hoh hoh. Looks like someone is quite popular!"
"Who the hell are you?" Jeanne Alter asks the orange-haired girl.
"I'm Gudako Fujimaru, Ritsuka's little sister! I'm a first-year in the master's program as well." Gudako poses with a wink as the door opens up revealing Mashu and a person that looked exactly like Artoria Alter.
"Please excuse me," Mashu said before bowing. "Gudako. You can't just barge into any classroom because you feel like to."
"Nah! It's fine Mashu. I just wanted to say hi to my older brother! C'mon! Why don't you introduce yourself? You too Nero!" Gudako motions the two to come over. Mashu and Ritsuka meet eye to eye and immediately recognize each other.
"Oh. Mashu. You're in my sister's class?" Ritsuka asks as Mashu nods with a smile. "That's good to hear… Oh. We haven't met."
"Nero Claudius, I have come at the request of your sister, Gudako. Umu, I have accepted her as my comrade and the same will be done the same for you." Nero said to Ritsuka.
Ritsuka looks at Nero with confusion as her face looks familiar, then looks at Artoria Alter, then back to Nero, then to Jeanne Alter, then back to Nero, then Artoria Alter, then Jeanne Alter, then Gudako, then Shirou, then Nero, then Marie, then Jeanne Alter, then Nero, then Mashu, then Shirou, then Artoria Alter.
"I am genuinely confused."

Chapter 3: President
"So you two are not related at all and your looks are similar by pure coincidence only?" Ritsuka asks Artoria Alter and Nero who both nod. "Sure that makes total sense."
'This guy is chill with everything.' Artoria Alter and Jeanne Alter thought as everyone was eating their lunch.
"Senpai. How are you doing so far?" Mashu asks Ritsuka who looks at everyone.
"It's off to a great start, Mashu. I made some good friends and I believe that I made some kind of good impression." Ritsuka said.
"That's great to hear Senpai… Can we be friends?" Mashu asks Ritsuka who gives a confused look.
"I thought we were friends when we got to know each other earlier."
"Oh… Thank you." Mashu blushes as she focuses back on her food.
"I'm glad that everyone is getting along well," Marie adds.
"I agree, Marie!" Gudako said with a smile.
The group was generally having a good time when the door opens again revealing a blond haired girl who let off an elegant manner, with two girls that looked really similar to Nero and Artoria Alter. One had a hat and wore sports gear and one with white-blond hair with glasses and the standard school outfit.
"He's there… Oh. Well, look at that. The first year master is there as well." The blond haired girl with the hat said pointing to Ritsuka whose group has noticed them yet.
"Coincidence. Is that all you wanted, Student President?" The white blond haired girl asked receiving a nod.
"Thank you X, Ecchan. Can you get them for me please?" The Student Council President asked as the two nods and they walk over to the table catching the attention of the group.
"Heyo. Ritsuka and Gudako, right? I'm X, from this class." X introduces herself to the two masters and catching the attention of Artoria Alter.
"Ecchan. I sit in front of Marie and a corner away. May we ask that you two come with us if it is not any problem?" Ecchan asks to both Gudako and Ritsuka.
"No. It's fine." Ritsuka and Gudako stand up to leave but both Jeanne Alter and Artoria Alter stand in their way.
"Oi! What does she want with Ritsuka?" Jeanne Alter points to Jeanne who is standing at the door waving. "Don't wave at me like that!"
"I have to agree. There must be some kind of intent if two alternate me's are in on it. Explain yourselves you two." Artoria Alter asks.
"It's just the student council president. I don't see a problem." Nero adds into it making Jeanne Alter pissed off.
"It's the student council president that I have a problem with! I want to know what my older sisters want with him?" Jeanne Alter points to her look alike.
"Wait… Another Jeanne? Jeanne's older sister? Two more Artoria's… X and Ecchan." Ritsuka comments while scratching his head. "Makes sense."
"STOP BEING SO DAMN CALM ABOUT THIS!" Jeanne Alter exclaims in a loud voice.
"You seem to be very angry for little to no reason except for something really petty," Ecchan comments as Jeanne Alter stabs daggers at her with her eyes.
"Please excuse me. I am the student council president, Jeanne. It's a pleasure to meet you." Jeanne bows at Ritsuka and Gudako who bows as well. "Oh. You two seem very polite."
"Uh yeah. Nice to meet you too, Student Council President." Gudako said with a smile. "Is there something that you needed for us?"
"Oh yes. Can you follow me to the student council room? Da Vinci Sensei asked me to deliver some things for you."
"The teacher's office is right next door. Why couldn't she just deliver it herself?" Artoria Alter asks.
"Probably because she's lazy as always," Shirou comments with a sigh.
"In any case. If it isn't any trouble…" Jeanne just notices that Artoria Alter and Jeanne Alter were standing next to each other without a major quarrel. She has had to deal with the two constantly fighting while in the disciplinary committee but seeing both of them like this was a sight that Jeanne thought she would have never seen. "Ritsuka, Gudako. Please follow me."
"Sure," Ritsuka said before looking back at Jeanne Alter and Artoria Alter. "Don't worry. I'll be back, ok?"
"Why are you telling me not to worry? I could honestly care less." Jeanne Alter said looking away with a huff.
"Jeanne?" Ritsuka said looking at Jeanne Alter but Artoria Alter gives a thumbs up while eating a burger. "Alright. We'll be back."
"So Student Council President. What exactly did you need to give us?" Gudako asks once the three entered the student council office.
"Oh. Da Vinci asked me to give you these." Jeanne hands both Ritsuka and Gudako red jerseys in a plastic sealed bag.
"Jerseys? For PE?" Ritsuka asks as Jeanne nods. "I don't understand. Couldn't the school have given this to us when they issued us our school uniforms?"
Jeanne shakes her head. "No. These Jerseys are special. They are equipped with a special type of magic known as a Mystic Code and Da Vinci finally go. There are two special types of Mystic Codes, Amplifier Mystic Code and Specialised Mystic Code. This is a Specialised Mystic Code that will help you keep up with the Servants."
The two siblings looked confused at the word Mystic Code.
"Oh. Your teacher for the master's program will teach you what Mystic Codes are. But for now, I'll just tell you that these clothes when you put them on will give you a speed and endurance boost." Jeanne said with Gudako still confused.
"That makes total sense. Thank you." Ritsuka said with a smile as he takes the PE Jersey. "Is that all?"
"Yes, that is all. You may go Gudako, but Ritsuka. Can you please stay for a bit? There is something that I must ask you." Jeanne asks as Ritsuka nods while Gudako leaves the two. "Thank you. Now you must have heard about my little sister."
"Jeanne alter? What about her?" Ritsuko asks.
"You must have known about the violent clashes that she had with Artoria. I'm honestly surprised that you were able to defuse them with such ease. It bewilders me, something that not even I could do."
"I just wanted to become their friend and I just politely asked if they could just make up and be friends and they accepted without a problem," Ritsuka said with a smile.
'Is this the power of a master? It's amazing that you were able to do that on your first day.' Jeanne stares at Ritsuka with both amazement and also curiosity. "In any case. I've taken enough of your time. You should go back."
"Oh ok then. Thank you for the clothes." Ritsuka takes the clothes and bows before turning to the door before looking back. "President?"
"Yes, Ritsuka?" Jeanne asks.
"Well, I'm friends with the younger version of you. Would it be ok if we were friends?" Jeanne takes a step back in surprise before smiling.
"Sure. I would be glad. You can come to me if you need help with your studies or anything else."
"Well yeah. But we can just be friends to hang out, right?" The bell rings behind Ritsuka. "Ah! I got to go! Please excuse me!"
Ritsuka leaves the council room in a rush before Jeanne could say anything else. She stares at the door with amaze and shock.
Ritsuka is doing push-ups during class under PE teacher, Fergus Mac Roich who was watching over them. Ritsuka could do push-ups easily but he felt less than he should have felt when it came to the amount of pain and energy in his body compared to the number of push-ups that he was doing as he was at push up number 861. He looks around to see some of the guy servants struggling to keep up with the 1000 push ups that Fergus made the boys do but gave the girls do only 600.
"This… is unfair. He's gender biased." One of the people said with their arms shaking.
"Robin. Just deal with it. What can we do against a buff dude with a massive broadsword for a teacher." Chulainn adds on before looking over his shoulder to Ritsuka. "How on the earth are you managing?! You're a human!"
"Uhh… Clothes that have a mystic code in them?" Ritsuka said as he stands up but even with the Mystic Code's abilities, he could still feel a significant amount of pain in his arms and he was letting out heavy breaths. He looks around to see the giant lion Thomas Edison, sweaty and exhausted with all of his fur and the… big Gaius Julius Caesar who was unable to do all of the push-ups and William Shakespeare… who sat around and wrote the agony that the boys had to go through with a smile on his face.
"What's wrong Chulainn? Are you tired over something as small as this?" Fergus said as he smacks Chulainn "lightly" launching him crashing into the walls.
"Chulainn died again!" Marie exclaims in shock.
"Head Nurse will heal him," Shirou said as he tries to walk over to help Chulainn only for him to fall on the floor exhausted. He looks to the right to see Nightingale out on patrol. "Head nurse!"
"Nightingale looks over to see Chulainn with her eyes open wide. "I will start the treatment!"
Nightingale jumps into an open window and tosses a hospital bed outside the window, breaking the window and part of the wall, pulls Chulainn out and lays him on the bed before launching the bed back inside the school and jumps in.
"Ritsuka." Ritsuka turns around to see Artoria Alter looking a bit ticked off. "You noticed the unfairness, right?"
"Yeah. You look angry yourself…" Ritsuka looks over at Jeanne Alter who was definitely pissed off because she feels like she is being underestimated. "Hey. Should I talk to Fergus?"
"No. It won't work. Fergus would just dismiss it off as you being a nuisance. What's interesting that you're keeping up with us using the power of the Mystic Code in your Jersey."
"Yeah. Da Vinci sensei enchanted it herself from what Student Council President said." Ritsuka said with a smile. "I'm really grateful because my arms are starting to hurt a lot."
"What? You're exhausted from just push-ups? Are you weak or something?" Jeanne Alter said after calming herself down a bit and walks up to both Artoria Alter and Ritsuka. Artoria Alter raises her brow and lightly taps Jeanne Alter's arm as she lets out a small 'eep' in pain. The King chuckles before starts running away to Jeanne Alter who was throwing fireballs at her. "GET BACK HERE YOU PIECE OF SHIT! I'M GOING TO FRY YOUR ASS!"
Ritsuka couldn't help but laugh but chuckle as he watches the two are running around. He finishes laughing before looking at Chaldea Academy with a smile still on his face. "This is only the start."
"Oi! All of you! We're running 300 times around Chaldea Academy!" Fergus yelled out as everyone was groaning in pain.
"The start of unbearable pain perhaps."
Hey, guys, this is NexusEX back with another chapter of Chaldea Academy! Not going to lie, slice of life can actually be a hard thing to write sometimes. But I'm still posting content to the best of my ability and introduced four new characters. Well, nine if we include Edison, Fergus, Robin Hood, and Caesar but their roles were so short. To be fair, X, Nero, and Ecchan kinda had a small appearance that wasn't as impactful as intros like Shirou or the two alters. But then again, this is supposed to be like a normal everyday school, except with magical servants from history or folklore. I can't just have a massive explosion with a massive "UMU" being heard from around the distance as Nero appears facing off against Tamamo No Mae... that idea would've actually been perfect but nevertheless I introduced her in a more casual way. In any case, I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter of Chaldea Academy. If you did leave a like, then follow, favourite, and comment for more content. This is NexusEx signing off. Stay Classy!
