*knock knock knock*
Whoever it was that person needs to pay back Zero's lovely time tinkering his real game statuses; he retorted in his mind
Of course, this is the infirmary. Occasionally these people may procure injuries one way or another; through some sort of accidents, minor to major ones.
"Zero, can I come in?"
A familiar female voice chimes in through the other side of the door
"The answer is YOU CAN NOT"
annoyed from the cliff hanger that he felt on his game like windows, Zero finalises his game system, called the menu, onto to his perpendicular view hoping it would not hinder his sense of sight. Apparently, just like from a game, the menu could be either be opened or placed to a corner and can be only used until necessary upon command.
"Oh, please~ this is my office, brat" judging from the voice of the person at the parallel side of the door, it must've been Dr.Xie accompanying Lilith to this room. "Did something bad had happened while I was asleep?" Zero's questions was thrown off in mid-air, awaiting an intangible response
Rattling and clanking of keys resounded through the parallel side of the door. The both of them entered through the wooden hatch. Two beautiful females, the mesmerising student Lilith and Dr.Xie's magnificent figure pairing up with her lab coat greeted Zero on his hospital-like berth. He then realises the awkward gaze Zero was giving when he spotted Lilith heating up, expressing an embarrassing smile.
Dr.Xie, observing the whole scenario, gave Zero a teasing smile heading towards to her personal desk. On the other hand, Lilith muster up her courage as she sat beside Zero's comfortable bed, staring at her two feet swinging above the ground.
Moments later, as their eyes had finally met their gazes, Zero desperately shifted the awkward atmosphere "What are you doing inside the infirmary, Lilith? Are there problems around your body that needs to be treated?"
Nervously pounding from his words as if he was trying to answer a difficult job interview to his boss.
Lilith's Point of View *******
"What are you doing inside the infirmary, Lilith?" Zero asked nervously. Was that question directly for me? Is he genuinely worried? I never felt so brittle 'til he shows up rescuing me from the Dark Deceptions. He held me in his arms like the stories that my mother had narrated for me when I was still a child; a courageous prince rescuing a princess was a dream of any princesses in a story. I lived my life in nobility, or so I believe, with a lot of candidates, boys around my age being introduced hoping they could capture my interest. Being a mage hindered a lot of opportunities and none of my family members are knowledgeable from these arcana's inside the school. Eventually I needed to open up myself to them but involving my relatives now from an wicked organisation might shock my parents and transfer me to a different school or may be to a different country. Little do they know that countless of mages are spreading world-wide and Xyrus was on the peak of its popularity.
Thoughts of me…leaving behind everything that I built up to. Everything that I cherished, in that particular second, my mum knowing I'm a part of a dangerous event would lead me to my demise, departing my school. And lastly, meeting Zero…the person who saved me and my only friend I ever gained. Honestly, he was the first boy that I ever took interest with. Saving my life like a princess I am, Zero being the prince, it was a romantic story between him and I.
nononono, don't blush Lilith or he'll notice. Why am I burning like this? There are a lot of good looking guys better than him. He's just an average boy, a freshman, joining the Xyrus academy. Even a first to be recommended by director Snow, opening up a Quadruple chain of magical elements in his body. even Mr.Snow is only specialised in Ice and water, while I myself took pride in fire and lighting… he has all of them, or even more possibilities in the future, when trained properly.
Should I volunteer myself to participate a private training with Zero?
nononono, Lilith, get a hold of yourself!
Noticing a translucent box which I find it oddly particular, Zero had been staring, even pointing his forefinger as if he's fidgeting over something in thin air. When I look around and observe him, his mana core was indeed getting stronger every minute.
I couldn't comprehend anything at all, just amazed on the continuous growth of my (soon to be) classmate, sitting there, gazing at the endless space. Is he virtually seeing things which we could not see? Is that his unique property which makes him better and stronger than most of us?
Excitement and nervousness filled my thoughts as this unpredictable outcome
************************************
Zero somehow got the courage to ask questions to overcome this undelightful ambience. But occasionally, Lilith would timidly peer on the ground making Zero think Lilith had no interest on the topic in hand.
He first uses his 'scan' which allows him to see any information possible within his sight. He operates the scan button and his prime guinea pig was none other than Lilith. Upon activation, an edgy sound, similar to the resonance of a camera zooming in and out before taking its shot. Upon hearing the voice of the system, a status screen of Lilith popped up to his fore.

Her stats isn't unbelievable as it should've been. Apparently, the noticeable numbers which was high enough to be praised upon was her intelligence (in the status information box). As a mage, intelligence is their primary source of power. Increasing the amount of intelligence in their stat enlarges the user's mana pool as well. In Lilith's case, awakening her arcana last year must've been a great feat for mages in the school.
Zero uses his scanning ability once again to Dr.Xie

"Wow" Zero grasps with his hands, covering his mouth, making an agape expression. Lilith, curious on what he saw leans forward and asks. "Is everything alright?"
Distracted from the voice, Zero shifted his gaze, grinning towards Lilith
"Nothing~" with a merrily look, he too moved closer to Lilith, enfolding his hands with Lilith.
"Would like to pair up with me?"
