Chapter 17 - How to make a Friend

"Then, enter that room. There's your classroom"

"Eh, our classroom is here?"

"Fufu~ you will know when you enter it, now go"

They opened the door and step in. The classroom is just like a normal classroom. But, when Liliya saw the window, she was surprised. The outside is not a bamboo forest, but the sight of the academy environment greeted her. Then she opened the door they come from, the outside turned into a hallway

"Wow~ is it a magical gateway?" (Liliya)

"Some teacher have a key that connects all doors in the academy" (Dream)

"Ohh~"

After admiring the door, Liliya then spotted the only person in this class beside them. Its maroon haired girl was reading a book. Liliya approach her

"Hello, my name is Liliya Pureheart. Can I know your name?"

Flip- flip-

She got ignored. Liliya never have been ignored in her life, which makes Liliya take her seriously

"Hey, what are you reading?" (Liliya)

"Do you like magic?" (Liliya)

"Am I disturbing you? I'm really sorry, I just want to know my classmate name…" (Liliya)

"…" (???)

Liliya attacks her with all her social skills, but it's not effective. Dream seeing this didn't act at all, Liliya distress will not end with just one. There are many troublesome kids that ignored people for different reasons.

Some saw people as an ant, some didn't see people at all and just focused on their business, and some got cursed so they avoid people. The one in front of her is the third kind, but…

'She should be shutting herself in Barat Republic, why is she here?'

Evangeline Luto, daughter of president Luto in the Barat Republic. Because of her curse, everyone close to her will receive misfortune. So they shut her in a mansion and she herself didn't want to go out because of her caring personality

In the novel, she should go out and take the president title at her 20. That's when the chaos descend upon the continent. Evangeline will hold the Barat Republic and bring misfortune to all the republicans enemies

'The principal case is not impossible, but this one is just absurd. Haaah I don't know it anymore'

Dream is too tired to think about the changes and just sits down in the back seat beside the window

Thud-

"Hm? What?"

Liliya pulls his robe and pointed her hand to the girl in front. Dream showed his unwillingness face, but Liliya use her power

"This is an order"

"Abusing power! I call it abuse!"

Dream is forced to sit beside Evangeline and Liliya takes the other side. Evangeline that trying her best to ignore Liliya now her expression slowly crumbling

'Why is she so persistent!? Didn't I has showed them don't come near me gesture? The book says if I ignore them they will go away'

Evangeline started to short breath, she isn't used to sitting close to people, and now they sandwiched her in this wide classroom with no people except them

'Why why why why!!!' (Eva)

'Poor girl, wait I need to care about myself too. what about the misfortune? Oh no, don't tell me! is sitting beside her for every year I'm here is my first misfortune!? (Dream)

Dream too start getting cold sweat and short breath. In this vacant classroom, their short breath is audible for Liliya. She just laughed inside at the duo behaviour

"Umm, don't get close to me" (Eva)

Finally, after gathering her spirit for a few minutes, Evangeline broke the silence. Instead of feeling bad, Liliya becomes excited. She didn't plan to back down anytime

"Oh, why is that? This is a public space, I can sit wherever I want" (Liliya)

'But you force me to sit here!' (Dream)

'Then sit anywhere else! don't here!' (Eva)

'Fine, if she wants to do it that way, I can just go somewhere… oh no' (Eva)

On her right is Liliya, on her left is Dream. She can't get out without asking one of them

'She blocked my exit! That's why she ordered that boy!' (Eva)

Evangeline feels like wants to shed tears. How can someone is so cunning just to befriend with someone, she thinks. She looked at Dream, unintentionally, her watery eyes and troubled expression looking like she was pleading him

'Ugh, don't look at me like that. Just say your name and get over with it' (Dream)

'I don't want to befriend with anyone! Why can't you guys understand I want be left alone wuww' (Eva)

'Pffft, they looks like talking with their face. But the best thing is that, it's unintentional! Pwahahaha' (Liliya)

Liliya was laughing for real now, the duo looked at her with displeased expression

'Meanieee' (Eva)

'At least cover it-_- how can she grow being rude like that? She already surpassed the original and become completely different person' (Dream)

Evangeline give up resisting temporarily and run away in the world of book. Also Dream can't do anything and run away in the world of 'dreams'

Somehow, I became used to live here. Well, 7 years isn't a short time. But, when I close my eyes, I always hear someone voice

'Is it okay to become like this?'

I don't know… they are very close to me now. It's almost like we are family…

'They are not. You wrote them and this world'

But they are different, this is a real world…

'The novel. That become real. The future you wrote will come, the same is for the past'

But i say it right, i will change it to happy ending

'You are not doing enough-'

"Wake up"

The darkness faded, when I opened my eyes, there are the character I wrote with sad past. She is cursed and live alone for her entire life before she become an adult

"Eva"

"Eh, how did you know my name?" (Eva)

"You heard us talking?" (Liliya)

What they're saying? Hmm judging by their reaction, it looks like Liliya already successfully become her friend. Sure, only extrovert can make friends

"We will begin our class, my name is Akamagi Ayame, i am your classroom teacher-"

Oh, she really look different when in teacher mode. It will be hard to get close to her as her student. She plays an important role after all

"Now, when i call your name, please introduce yourself- oh, i got called. You guys can introducing yourself without me"

Ayame exit the class, Liliya stand and take over as a socially capable person

"Then, let's start by me. My name is Liliya Pureheart-"

An intoduction… a peaceful introduction? No, it can't be… if it's my novel, this is the time for introducing with a fight

In three,

two,

one

BOOM! ROARR-

""What!""

A Minotaur, a horde of Minotaurus destroyed the class wall and attack all students in sight. They are caught unprepared, but there are always someone that was prepared. Who could it be?

""

A burst of fire pushed back the minotaurus. Of course it's the MC Liliya that has run to many attempts of ambush in the past. Liliya leave them in awe, as expected of MC. But Minotaur didn't disappoint their legend, a fire from a 15 year old girl can't make them waver. They rushed even when in fire

So the students that get a time to readying their spell will fight a difficult fight while the readers will come to know the students name and power…

'I am an author, i can just back down and defend'

Splash- BANG-

'I am their friend, i can at least kill one'

Swing- CLANK-

Sigh, what really happened to me. I didn't even write this scene, this is not my novel? Look at them, I didn't even write half of them. And what Liliya doing here…

I changed it… no, it's changed. Everything changed, everything will change. My options isn't practical anymore

"Hey Dream! What the heck are you still sitting there? There's Minotaurus no?"

Oh, Liliya shout awake me. I didn't realize the fight always in motion while I'm thinking. The students has made a group of three or four against one Minotaur. Meanwhile Liliya and Eva was fighting 2vs2.

Only me sitting in the middle of the battlefield, I really stand out doesn't it? Is the Minotaur unconsciously avoided me or their number is coincidentally not enough for me?

"DREAM!"

I know…

""

Ting-

Silence descended in the battlefield. Everyone stopped their tracks and forming cold sweat. All of them looked at the one sitting in the middle of the battlefield. Just one student. All he was doing are viewing the battle like he didn't here

ROARRRR

The Minotaurus feels offended and raging towards me. I shouldn't have a part in this, I'm not a character… I'm not a character, so i can do whatever i wants right? Then remind them with a bang

"When I'm here, i can, and i will do it…"

"No one can stop me"

""

TING-
