88. School (1)
A week has passed since Lex and Maya lived together.
"Good morning," Lex said as he prepared the breakfast. Today was Lex's turn to make breakfast. It was a leisurely breakfast with toast added some jam. At first, Maya tried to do all the home chores. Her reason was that she was freeloading on this place. Still, Lex can't endure doing anything, and Maya does all the home chores. He tried to help but was rejected by Maya. In the end, Lex had to push her like usual, and the result was. Finally, Lex was permitted to help with her home chores, and they were taking turns to cook.
"Morning" Maya woke up a bit later. Maya resisted at the mouth. But actually, she quite likes having food cooked by someone else. It made her feel nostalgic and remember when she was still the youngest in the orphanage. It warms her heart.
It was the usual heart-warming scene in the morning.
***
Today, Lex and Maya come out together in the morning. Or more like starting today, they will come out together like this. After a week, Paul had finished all the necessary documents. They had officially enrolled in the First Middle School and were ready to go to school.
Maya was transferred to Ella's Elite class, while Lex was transferred into general class in the third year of middle school. It was the same with The First Elementary school. The elite class wasn't based on ability, but status and wealth-based Elite Class. The only difference was that it was possible to climb into Elite class with a very high grade. But it's never been used till now. Just think an ordinary student with an average background surrounded by many students with a mammoth-like background was enough for those students to have a nightmare.
Lex has gone a separate way from Maya. He asked Ella to take Maya with her. And of course, at first, Maya refused to bother others. She can go on her own. But Lex insisted on Maya at least on the first day she had to go with Ella. So finally, once again, she is weak being pushed. And as for what reason, Lex insisted Maya go with Ella. It's to establish her background and status at school to become someone who had quite a background who wasn't to be underestimated. And the first impression is the most important for that.
(If by any chance Maya got bullied in school. I don't think I can hold myself to destroy the other side…) it was beneficial for both Lex and Maya.

First Middle School.
Lex's original plan was to open a café specializing in sweets liked by women of any age. He had his bodyguard's work, but if he opened the café near the school, he could easily sense Kate's safety. Then He could work in the café when Kate was at school. Then from there, he would once again restart his conquest into harem's road!!
(It was a bit different than I planned, but still, this is an acceptable change of plan!)
(Kukuku… do you think I gave up on my dream? Nonsense!! Even on Crimson Eagle, which I never planned anything, I've got to know many candidates! What do you think this means? That's right. The world wants me to have a harem! Mwahahaha)
(I might have failed once in elementary school. But it's okay. I learned a few things from that experience too. One of them is Gentleman can eat shit!! These days aggressive type is more dominant! Cold on the outside but warm on the inside! The male lead on shoujo manga!!)
(Hmm? My mission? My parents? Well, it can wait! It's not like I have a clue anyway. It's like when the thing is missing when you want to use it. And appeared when you didn't want to use it. So, I need to wait for it!) after Lex had considerable power to survive alone on the Hidden World. He had started to find out more about his parents. But even after he turned upside down Livia's whole library, he couldn't find many things about Mikaela's house.
(The only thing I can find is Mikaela's house had broken taboo and prosecuted and lynched by the whole's Hidden World! But that's all. I didn't know what kind of taboo is… but I can think of what kind of taboo is that. Most likely, Mikaela's house had shown itself into the secular world… but I'm not too sure) Lex had asked Livia about Mikaela too. But Livia was a shut-in. She didn't know many things outside the book.
(And it's not like I can ask someone I can't fully trust either. If the other person suddenly asked. Why do I want to know about that? even if I can lie, the suspicion might exist forever.)
(What I got to know is that my parents knew about Hidden World, which I had guessed a long time ago. The Magic Weapon they left me was the proof of it. And the second one was someone had tried to erase everything connected to Mikaela's house, which is also the reason for the scarce information. So yeah, there's nothing I can do about it, that's why….)
(Mwahahahaha No one can stop me now!! My Harem! Prepare yourself!!) Lex is still trying to hold back; a few muffed laughter can still be heard. From others' view, a plain teenager is wearing the same uniform as them shaking creepily right in the middle of the school entrance.
***
Ninth Grade. Class C
A plain teenager introduced himself in the most average normal way inside the class. The teenager's uniqueness is that he didn't have anything unique. And the teenager was, of course, Lex Mikaela, also Lex Spifer.
"My Name is Spifer Iaso," Lex introduced himself. It is a fake name he used to hide from Kate's eyes on the school. Before Lex went to Crimson Eagle, Lex could proudly say that he knew Kate like the back of his hands. But after he went back, that wasn't the case anymore. (Look at Ella! she has become someone I can't recognize anymore)
"Because of a personal reason, I transferred into this school. Everyone, please take care of me" Lex bowed, and the next second insincere hand clapped rang around the classroom for a while. (hahaha, I'm afraid of my own talent! A plain face from Livia's ring. And then a plain introduction! I had established myself as the perfect background character! With this, the first step to becoming a hidden bodyguard has succeeded in the perfect score! I want to make a harem, but I shouldn't let it bother my other work! This is what it meant to be a professional harem!) Lex got excited by himself, but he still had a plain fake smile outside.
"Your seat will be… there!" The teacher pointed to the last desk from the window, which is also… (the Main protagonist seat!!)
Without any question, Lex went to his seat. The one who sat beside him was a girl with auburn bob hair. She also had quite an asset with her then She had a cheerful aura around her. (a bright childhood friend type) Lex commented inwardly. Then there's another girl sitting in front of Lex. The girl had beautiful long black hair. Her asset was a bit lacking compared to the childhood friend girl. Instead, the black-haired girl was more elegant. She had a cool beauty vibe around her. (silent beauty classmate type) Lastly, next to the black-haired girl, in front of the auburn-haired girl and right-front from Lex was a boy.
The boy with short brown hair was quite chubby. He can't be called fat but can't be called skinny too. The boy was friendly as he waved his hand toward Lex, even with his plain face. Lex responded with a slight nod which is also suitable for his persona.
Once Lex sat down on his seat. The auburn-haired girl beside her immediately made her move. "Hi~!" she called. "My name is Mina. Nice to meet you, Spifer!"
Lex turned to her and stuck looking at her face in a 'daze.' The girl was a beauty. She can't beat Kate or Ella but can have a good fight against Maya. (So, she should be used to this kind of action) and after a few moments, "N, Nice to meet you, too!" Lex quickly replied (perfect!!)
And just as Lex guessed. Mina doesn't mind Lex's action at all. She was used to it. Each time she talks to a stranger, the others side always made the same action.
"Hello~ I'm Justin." Next, the brown-haired boy shot Lex a friendly smile. It was a smile without pressure which even can calm the other person a bit.
"Hello. Nice to meet you," Lex replied without stutter this time.
Justin's lips become higher after Lex's friendly reply. "Priscilla, come on, say something too~" Justin urged the black-haired girl.
The black-haired girl, Priscilla, turned her head to look at Justin a while before he turned to Lex. Then once again, she took a glance at Justin before she introduced "Priscilla Belle."
(Hmm? their relationship was not simple~) what came out of Lex's mind. "Hello…" Lex replied with a meek hello, resulting in Priscilla turning back to the blackboard and losing interest.
"Sorry," Justin apologized in Priscilla's stead. "She always likes this with a stranger."
"I don't mind," Lex responded like he wasn't affected by her attitude. Well, it's actually didn't bother him at all. He is even happy if she continues to act like this in front of him, which reduces his work.
"Nice," Justin smiled again "then I'll talk to you again later," Justin said, and right before he turned back, "Mina too," he added.
(Hhmmmm~~~)
"Yea," Mina waved her hand a little to Justin and then, "do you have a textbook? Wanna share mine?" Mina turned to Lex
"I don't, but it's, okay?" Lex asked back. Which Mina responded with a giggle
"it's fine, it's fine. I'm sure the teacher will-"
"Miss Maecil, please share your textbook with Mr. Iaso," the teacher ordered at the right time.
"See," Mina's smile becomes even wider.
"Thanks," Lex replied with another 'meek' smile…. So that's what the outside but he was excited that he almost exploded on the inside.
Lex took a peek toward Justin in front of him (this guy…. My Harem sense are tingling!!)
(Mina, and that girl Priscilla! they must be his Harem member!! But I'm the one who sat in the protagonist seat, which means… NTR TIMEE!!!!)
