Two days have passed since Olivia went into the carriage with me. We talked about a lot of things about ourselves. Olivia could create food that boosted one's strength, speed, or magic. I was glad I kept her around.
With the ideas I gave her, she could replicate any foods I told her. My backup plan is beginning to look brighter.
Olivia was an orphan because she had beneficial magic in her field. She was recommended to go to the academy and learn more to produce better results.
Did you also know that Olivia is a hugger? When both of us are asleep, she hugs the nearest thing around her and squeezes me at night. It's pretty hard to fall asleep, but it had a nice feeling. I don't want anything to happen when she is awake.
Good thing I will never see John again after today. The disgusting old man was staring at us, even Olivia was scared of him, but she kept it quiet. No wonder why people like him are so looked down upon.
Venting my anger, I stared at Olivia, hugging me like an octopus. Not only her arms but her legs were locking onto me. Olivia, who was waking up, opened her eyes, and I greeted her, "Good morning Olivia."
I gave her a smirk attempting to tease her. "Do you like hugging me that much? If you do, why don't we marry!" I made a joke, making her face turn crimson red from embarrassment.
"I wouldn't mind." She mumbled as quietly as she could, but she hugged me, so I could hear her say it.
Wait, for what? I said it as a joke. Is Olivia into girls? Or did I somehow charm Olivia? I don't remember doing something that made Olivia into me. I don't think she was joking when she said that. She was blushing too much for that to be a joke.
Thinking anymore would hurt my head, Olivia hugged me, got up, and released me. Wanting to make this less awkward, I shifted the topic to "Olivia, do you mind making pizza today!" Confused by the term, she asked what pizza was.
Looking at her face, she didn't know what pizza was. I overestimated this world. The food here sucks. The only good food they have are meat dishes that barely qualify in my old world.
Explaining pizza itself was hard. The ingredients themselves were different. Asking Olivia to put in mozzarella cheese was exhausting, so I settled on regular cheese.
During these two days, I had a lot to think about. I surprisingly did well despite not having a phone or a computer.
Having friends to talk to would lessen one's boredom. I'm surprisingly doing well in conversations. Was it because I never cared much about making connections or because of Charlie's memories?
It doesn't matter now. Eating breakfast with Olivia, I could see her enjoying her breakfast. She was smiling from the feeling of tasting great food. While pizza isn't something you should eat for breakfast, I missed the feeling of eating one.
After finishing our breakfast, we continued to talk. Sometimes Olivia would blush when looking at me. Do I have the ability to charm girls with my look? I shook my head since I couldn't make any comparison right now.
A random question came to me "Olivia, what's your opinion of Saint Maria's Magic Academy?" I wanted to hear her thoughts about it.
"Hmm." Olivia, who was thinking hard, came to an answer.
"Saint Maria's Magic Academy is a place to make myself a better chef! Once I have the power to make the best food, I can live a happy life!" An adorable answer from Olivia. Hearing about Olivia's dream made me a little jealous. I hope my life will be as peaceful as I need it to be.
I patted Olivia on the head. Olivia, taken surprised by my head pat, looked embarrassed. Since she didn't want to distract herself, she asked me the same question.
"What do I think about it? For me, it's a place for me to grow stronger. Since I'm from the Solaris family, I have duties I must do for my family." I said seriously, frowning unintentionally at what I came up with.
Giving my answer, Olivia hugged me and patted my back. Why did she hug me? Did I do something that made her want to hug me? Ugh, I don't understand her sometimes.
"If you have anything you want to talk about, I don't mind listening." She gave me a reliable smile, unbefitting her usual nature.
I see even a klutz like Olivia could read me. I guess being alone in this world sucks. Shaking away these thoughts, "Thanks for comforting me." I mumbled quietly, embarrassed to say that to her.
She smiled at me, giggling. She probably heard that, so I looked away, embarrassed.
And with that, our carriage stopped, and we arrived at the city's front gate. Starbound city is the capital of Star State.
The Celeste family is the strongest of the three families. They're also the one that owns the capital. If the Celeste family is the strongest, Lunaris and Solaris are after them.
The Lunaris and Solaris are considered rivals. While both families are rivals, they don't interact much with each other. The Solaris primarily operates during the day, and the Lunaris operates at night.
Despite the academy being in the capital, the academy is isolated in the corner of the city. Going through the city, we arrived at the academy. Guards were standing there protecting the entrance.
Showing our invitation letter, the guards told us to enter the building in front to receive our identity for the school. We went through the gate. It wouldn't be funny if Olivia lost her pass while traveling for two days. Good thing there wasn't any cliche along the way.
Entering the building, we went to the receptionist and showed our invitation letter to the receptionist.
"Olivia, right?" The receptionist called out her name to confirm her identity. Olivia, who heard her name, nodded her head. "Use your ability to confirm your identity."
Summoning a fruit, the receptionist gave her an identity card and multiple school uniforms. "You would be in dorm four, room five. If you want to change your room or dorm with someone, come here with them, and our staff will make the arrangement."
