Girls School Day (1)
April 10th, the day when the new semester of Raizen High School started.
The cherry blossom trees on the side of the road were arranged in an orderly manner, and the breeze blew up the blooming cherry petals, creating a breathtaking beautiful scene.
On the road, four cute girls were walking together, wearing dark suit jackets and pleated skirts with clear creases. The neckline of the white shirt was decorated with a red ribbon. And on their chest, the school emblem with the letter "R" was shining.
"Today is the first day of high school. When I finally become a high school student, I feel very energetic and look forward to this new life." Said the girl with a single ponytail while carrying a Kendo sword. This strong girl — Mana Takamiya — had a tear mole under her left eye, and she was none other than Shido Itsuka's biological sister.
"Why are you so excited when you mention going to school? Although, I have to admit that going to school is really not a scary thing." The green-haired girl frowned and said. This little girl — Natsumi Kyouno — was one of the Spirits that Shido once sealed.
"Hey, Natsumi-chan has really grown up. Back then, when we took you to middle school, you were screaming and jumping, refusing to go like everyone was gonna eat you alive." Said the puppet worn on the blue-haired girl's left hand.
"Natsumi-san is constantly growing, and she can do well in everything. In this entrance exam, Natsumi-san has the highest score among us." The owner of the doll — Yoshino Himekawa — had silky hair that was as blue as sea water, soft lips with the color of cherry blossoms, resembling the look of a beautiful French doll. She patted Natsumi on the head and smiled encouragingly, "Natsumi-san is very smart."
"I'm very smart…?" Natsumi blushed, murmuring to herself, "but I'm not. Compared to Yoshino, who is gentle and lovely like a goddess, I'm really not a big deal."
"Compared to Natsumi-san and Yoshino-san, Muku's grades are far from satisfactory. If it weren't for Imoto-go's help , Muku might not be able to be in the same school as everyone." The girl with her long blonde hair tied into two dangos — Mukuro — said with a happy smile
Mukuro's words were not unreasonable. As a newly built key high school in recent years, Raizen High School had very advanced teaching facilities, especially a complete underground shelter, so the difficulty of enrolling was really high. But for the supernatural Ratatoskr, this level of difficulty was nothing for them.
"Yoshino-chan, Natsumi-chan, Mukuro-chan, Mana-chan—"
A brisk voice came from the intersection, and a girl was greeting the four of them.
"Kanon-chan—" Yoshino and the others shouted their names together when they saw the person coming.
Kanon Ayanokōji , Kotori and the others' middle school classmate, also the class rep of the class, said hello to her friends.
"Good morning everyone, are you attending Raizen High School too?" Kanon asked.
"That's right, Yoshinon will go to high school with Yoshino and everyone from today. Has Kanon-chan also passed the entrance exam?"
"Yes, that's great. I'm really happy to be together with you girls in high school too. I just don't know if we can be in the same class. It would be great if that happens."
Because of Ratatoskr, Yoshino and the others would naturally be in the same class, but there was no guarantee to say if Kanon could also be in their class.
"Natsumi, why did you hide behind Yoshino? Aren't you and Kanon really good friends?" Mana looked at Natsumi who was hiding behind Yoshino, a puzzled expression formed on her face.
"I..." Natsumi looked at her outfit while arranging her hair, and after confirming that there was no problem, she appeared from behind Yoshino. "Good morning, Kanon, I didn't scare you like this, did I?"
"No, Natsumi is very cute." Kanon looked at the nervous loli and said with a smile.
"I'm very cute..." Natsumi said silently, "Well, everyone is cuter, aren't they?"
"Oh, by the way, where is Kotori-chan?" Kanon suddenly realized that Kotori, who was with everyone on weekdays, did not come to school with everyone this morning.
Kotori had to observe the new wave of Reiryoku in the morning, so she went to Fraxinus to deal with the matter. Of course, this must not be mentioned in public.
"She is always very busy, she needs some rest." Natsumi frowned and replied.
"Imoto-go said in the morning that she has something to deal with, so she let Muku and everyone go first."
"That's right, just as Mukuro-chan said, something big will happen..."
However, Yoshinon's words did not continue.
It wasn't because Yoshinon didn't want to speak, or because she didn't know how to speak.
The reason is simple.
Yoshino's mouth was covered by Yoshino.
"Ah, something big like what?" Kanon asked curiously.
"It's nothing! Compared to this, it's getting late, let's go inside." Yoshino said hurriedly.
"Well, my sister is coming soon, you should go inside first." Kanon said with embarrassment.
"She is super obnoxious, I don't want her to annoy you."
"Your sister?"
Yoshino and Natsumi remembered that Kanon had told them that she had an older sister, who won number one in the Tenou Festival Beauty Pageant, so she must be a great beauty.
"~~~Kanon~~~, where have you been?"
Suddenly, a harsh voice came, and a beautifully dressed tall woman came out from the intersection.
"Didn't I tell you that, as the younger sister of the most beautiful woman in Tenou City, you have to pay attention to your own image!" The tall woman approached Kanon and flicked her forehead. "Why did you suddenly run away recklessly?"
Turning her gaze away, she looked at the four little girls who were together with astonishment. Compared with them, her own appearance paled in comparison, and she couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Let me introduce, this is my elder sister, Karin Ayanokouji, and she is in college."
"Hello Ayanokouji-san." Everyone nodded to Karin.
"Huh." Karin made a puff sound, "I am Kanon's sister, and I won first place in the Tenou Festival Beauty Pageant. You girls look pretty, but not as voluptuous as me."
"Oh yeah, you look so sexy, you must be better than an ugly duckling like me." Natsumi said lightly. Of course, after going through a series of incidents, Natsumi no longer felt inferior about herself, nor was she pessimistic about her appearance. This was just sarcasm.
"Forgive Muku, but the fluorescence of fireflies is nothing compared to the brightness of the moon in the night sky..."
"Okay okay, onee-san, let's go." Kanon grabbed Karin's hand. "I'm sorry everyone, my sister is just like this, please don't be offended. I'm sorry." With that, she pulled her away quickly.
Seeing the sisters off, Mana smirked and shrugged.
"What the heck, saying such condescending things in the first meeting? I really can't tell that they are biological sisters, their differences are too great!" Mana adjusted the kendo sword on her back, continuing. "Nee-sama and I are the best siblings ever! Whether it is appearance or personality, outsiders can tell we are related at a glance. The bond between biological brothers and sisters is unparalleled, much better than the adoptive ones like Kotori who have no blood relations!"
"But biological brothers and sisters can't get married, right?" Natsumi's words interrupted Mana's gloat.
"Mana's not into incest!" Mana waved her hand jokingly. "Mana just needs to be nee-sama's lovely sister, who is loved by him all the time, and we can be happy forever."
"Married?" For some reason, the girls present were silently thinking about something mysterious when they heard this word.
"Can Yoshino get married too?" Yoshino said with a flushed face.
"No problem, when Yoshino is 16, you can definitely marry Shido-kun..."
"Yoshinon." Yoshino covered Yoshinon's mouth to prevent her from saying anything lewd.
"Marrying Shido..." Natsumi blushed for some reason after hearing those words.
"What does getting married mean? Muku doesn't quite understand."
"To be married means becoming a family, to be together forever."
"Family? But Muku and Nushi-sama are already family. Is this marriage?"
"So everyone is married to Shido-kun!"
"Like I said, marriage doesn't mean that."
The voices of the girls echoed in the streets full of cherry blossoms.
