Chapter 12 - Icy Princess

[Host is rewarded with 100 GS for completing the Task.]

[God of mischief is satisfied with your cunningness. Donated 10 God Coins.]

Kevin was slightly surprised upon receiving additional coins from God of Mischief.

While he was eager to use them at the System's shops, he ultimately concluded that his top priority should be finding a new room.

Luckily, there were dormitories available for students.

As per usual, Kevin stored his belongings in subspace and donned his mask before departing his room and heading towards the central building.

Numerous other students were also en route to the central building, with some departing while in tears. It was possible that they had failed the entrance exam.

Without delay, Kevin arrived at the central building, where he knew he could obtain a key for his new room.

However, upon arrival, he discovered that there was a line of people waiting to receive their keys.

Without hesitation, Kevin joined the queue and patiently waited his turn.

After a short wait, Kevin's turn finally came. He walked up to the counter.

"Name?" The senior student in charge of the process asked for his name, to which Kevin promptly responded with his name.

"Kevin."

The senior student began typing on the computer, and within moments, he had pulled up Kevin's profile. As he read through Kevin's it, his voice suddenly grew louder, and everyone in the vicinity turned to look at them. He was surprised.

And Kevin was getting AP, so he wasn't bothered.

"S-class?!" he exclaimed, his shock and surprise evident in his tone. People who had been standing nearby began to stare at Kevin, their expressions a mix of envy, jealousy, respect, and admiration. Kevin could feel their gaze upon him,

The senior student, still taken aback by Kevin's academic profile, called out for someone, presumably to share the news with them. Within moments, a stunning young lady appeared, her beauty and grace immediately capturing the attention of those around her.

Without any hesitation, the lady loudly asked, "Who is Kevin?"

Kevin silently raised his hand.

"You?"

The beautiful lady asked Kevin to confirm his identity, and Kevin simply nodded in response.

"Okay, follow me," she said, gesturing for Kevin to follow her.

As Kevin trailed behind her, he started thinking about something.

If there was someone else in Kevin's position they might be star-struck by her presence, but he remained composed, because he knew who she was.

If someone saw her, they might think to conquer her, but can't get close because of her cold aura. She is Ice witch, Alicia Moravia, daughter of duke Moravia.

Alicia Moravia was a striking and mesmerizing figure, and it was no wonder people were drawn to her.

She had long, flowing hair that cascaded down her back in waves, a stunning shade of sky blue that added to her ethereal appearance.

Her hair was her crowning glory, and she might have took great care to maintain its luster and shine.

Her eyes were a rare and captivating silver color that shone like stars in the night sky.

They were deep and alluring, with an intensity that could be both alluring and intimidating.

Her gaze was piercing and intense, and she often used it to communicate her thoughts and feelings.

Alicia's slender figure was accentuated by her tall stature, and she carried herself with an air of grace and poise.

Her movements were fluid and effortless, and she exuded confidence and self-assurance.

Her chest was modest in size, but it didn't detract from her striking appearance. Instead, it added to her air of mystery and elegance.

Perhaps the most intriguing thing about Alicia's appearance was her expressionless face.

Her features were delicate and symmetrical, and she had a natural beauty that required no embellishment.

But her lack of expression made it hard for people to read her emotions, adding to her enigmatic persona.

She rarely smiled, but her eyes conveyed her thoughts and emotions more than her facial expressions ever could.

Recently, she graduated from the Academy with flying colors, and it's no surprise since she is considered a genius by her peers.

Her exceptional magical abilities are evident as she can already cast 7-Star spells, a feat that's impressive for a recent graduate.

Her potential to become an Archmage is highly likely, given her level of proficiency in spellcasting. Interestingly, in the game world, she has already achieved the coveted title of Archmage.

After so much detail, you will think she would be an important character.

Yeah, as you expect from eroge, She is one of the heroines of the game.

While Kevin was silently following her, a notification appeared.

[God of mischief issued a task to you.]

'Not again...'

["Everybody can make a girl fall in love with them by talking, but you, the one chosen by us, will not talk to Alicia today."

Reward: 30 God Coins

Penalty: None]

Kevin was slightly disturbed by the task. He really didn't like how gods randomly gives tasks out of nowhere. However after reading the content of the task, he accepted it.

'It's okay. After all, Alicia is the homeroom teacher of the first-year S-class. I can talk to her anytime. But, honestly, I don't really want to talk to her. She's just an iceberg and I don't know what kind of trouble it will bring.'

Before long, they arrived at the residential area. In the Academy, students were given residency based on their grades.

Students in the C and D classes are given a single room, while those in the B class are given a large room.

A class' students are provided with a one-bedroom apartment that includes a hall and kitchen.

The S class' students get an entire floor in the building, complete with a bedroom, hall, kitchen, and training area. It's like being in a 5-star hotel room.

"Here is your ID card and room key. You can visit the Academy's website for further information," Alicia said.

She stopped walking when they reached near the building of S-class students. She took out Kevin's ID card and room key from her space ring.

Kevin just nodded and took them from her. After that, he started walking towards the building for S-class students.

"Hey. Wait." But then he heard Alicia's voice.

Hearing this Kevin stopped walking.

"You didn't even ask me who I am?

Set aside asking, you haven't even said anything?

So you can't speak?" Alicia was bothered by this. She had some pity for disabled people. So she wanted to confirm it.

Kevin just shook his head.

"Then What? Why are you silent?" Alicia was confused. If he isn't mute then why doesn't he talk?

After observing silent Kevin, she saw that he wore a lower face mask.

"Why do you have this mask on your face?" Kevin was still silent.

Alicia was getting more curious about everything. Because Kevin's attire was also weird.

"Hey. Why aren't you speaking? And what's with this attire? Are you going to protest against someone with your black clothes?" Alicia asked as she approached Kevin.

Kevin was still silent. He just shook his head. He didn't answer her.

After some time Alicia was dumbfounded.

"Oh, now I am curious. Let me see your face."

Again, Kevin just shook his head.

"Why? Let me remove it." Alicia said.

Alicia was just about to remove his mask. But then...

Kevin started running towards the building and quickly entered it. Alicia looked bewildered, standing there like a statue.

"Hey. What was that? Why did he run away?" She was confused.

"Am I that scary?" She was getting doubts about her beauty and she was also curious about Kevin.

"Okay. I will see him In class." Alicia left.

"Kevin, huh." she mumbled trying to remember the name.

On the other side,

Kevin quickly found his room and sighed in relief.

"These Gods sure are doing this. If I was late for even a second, I might have failed the task."

'If those Gods think this will make things difficult. Then it's okay. Who likes to play easy games? fufu.'

Kevin thought in his mind.

'Although I think I somewhat triggered Alicia. But it's okay. It might help me to interact with her in the future.'

Following that, Kevin proceeded to inspect his room, which was situated on the 5th floor. With the key in hand, he unlocked the door, which was secured by a digital lock. To ensure optimal security, Kevin configured both his fingerprint and a passcode as means to gain access to the room.

Upon successful verification, Kevin finally entered his new home.

Kevin was astonished by the abundant facilities provided in the S-class. Despite the potential challenges he might encounter in the future, he felt that the experience of living in such luxury was well worth it.

Upon entering the room, Kevin was greeted by a grand and spacious hall, adorned with comfortable sofas and chairs for relaxation.

The large window offered a stunning view of the academy, providing a peaceful ambiance.

As he explored the rooms, Kevin noticed the private training rooms, which were equipped with state-of-the-art equipment for physical training and exercise.

There were also several bedrooms, including a master bedroom, a guest bedroom, and a study room, each furnished with modern amenities and luxurious touches.

The fully-equipped kitchen was another highlight of the home, featuring high-end appliances and a stylish dining area for entertaining guests. The kitchen also had a large pantry, stocked with a variety of snacks and beverages.

One of the most impressive features of the home was the VR simulation capsule, located in the hall.

It was a large, high-tech pod that offered users an immersive virtual reality experience. There were also massage chairs nearby, providing a relaxing space to unwind and destress.

The master bedroom was particularly striking, with a king-size bed in the center of the room, accompanied by two nightstands on either side.

Even three people can easily fit in the bed at the same time.

Kevin thought that as expected of the eroge.

The room was furnished with an elegant dressing table, a cozy armchair, and a large flat-screen television mounted on the wall. The en-suite bathroom was equipped with a modern shower, a deep soaking tub, and a large vanity with plenty of storage.

As Kevin continued to explore his new home, he discovered other amenities, such as a game room with a pool table and a bar, and a home theater with a state-of-the-art sound system.

Kevin sat on the study table.

'Hey, system. Can you check if there are any monitoring devices?'

[Yes. Host.]

'Then, do it. What are you waiting for?'

[Only gods are monitoring you now. Nobody has installed any monitoring devices here.]

Kevin sighed in relief after hearing that, he was suspicious because there were some insiders in the Academy. And if his secret that he can use light magic came out then he might be in big trouble.

There was even bigger trouble than this, and it was that he didn't want anyone to find out that he has system and he is from another world.

After Kevin had retrieved his belongings from subspace, he began setting everything up in his new home. He carefully unpacked his bags and arranged his belongings in a neat and organized manner.

He put his three pairs of clothes in the closet. The closet looked quite empty but it was all the clothes he had.

'Should I buy more clothes?' Kevin thought. However he soon dismissed the idea. He had plenty of clothes already.

After sorting his clothes, Kevin took out his laptop and turned it on.

He navigated to the Academy's website and scanned his ID card to connect to the secure student portal.

With the ID card verification complete, Kevin's student account was swiftly created.

He entered his login credentials and accessed his personal dashboard, which provided him with a wealth of information about the Academy and his academic program.

"Technology sure is nice. Now let's see what there is."

Soon Kevin started reading about the Academy's rules, facilities, and other things.

After some time, he almost read everything.

Through his student account, Kevin was able to view his class schedule, access his course materials, and communicate with his professors and classmates. The portal also offered him access to various academic resources, including online libraries and study tools, which would aid him in his studies.

In addition to academic resources, Kevin's student account also provided him with access to various extracurricular activities and events, allowing him to easily join clubs, participate in sports teams, and attend social events. However he wasn't interested in them.

You can say it's Academy's own portal and no outsider can enter in it.

"Okay, compared to the game, this looks more detailed. There are many rules and many facilities. There is even introduction of the professors and time table for every class. It would be great if my university also had something like this.

Now let's set it aside, I got 5000 credits as an S-class student. It's good."

Credits. It is like a currency for Academy.

There are facilities in the Academy but you have to use credits in some facilities like the cafeteria, gravity room, training room, etc.

Every students gets credits regarding their performance. High-talented students get more resources.

You can also get credits by doing some odd jobs or tasks. Like that senior in the Central building.

You can also buy things with credits from Academy.

Like some good kinds of stuff.

"However with a meager 5000, I don't think there will be anything good." Kevin shrugged his shoulders. Although he has very few credits now, he has his ways to earn them.

"For now, let's wait for the end of the day. Then my task will be completed."

Kevin stretched his arms and began his studies, determined to make the most of his time at the Academy.

Having already completed most of the basic courses prior to his enrollment, Kevin downloaded the syllabus for the S-class of every year.

He decided to start with the first year's syllabus and began studying it while simultaneously practicing his mana control.

As he delved deeper into the syllabus, Kevin was impressed by the complexity and depth of the coursework.

He spent countless hours poring over each subject, taking detailed notes and practicing each technique until he had mastered it.

As Kevin immersed himself in his studies, time seemed to slip away unnoticed. The warm glow of the sun slowly faded from the sky, giving way to the cool and tranquil light of the moon as it rose overhead.

The soft light of the moon cast a peaceful and calming aura over Kevin's new home, as he continued to read and practice into the late hours of the night.

Despite the lateness of the hour, he remained focused and determined, pushing himself to achieve his academic goals.

At midnight, Kevin got the notification which he was waiting for.
