- Pant, pant!
- One more time!
I shivered when those close eyes looked towards me.
'If I do any more, I'll probably die!'
I then immediately bowed to the girl in front of me.
-I'm biting my teeth and biting my neck, please forgive me this time!
I looked up at her with teary eyes.
That person stared at me and sighed.
-That is enough. You go home, we'll practice again tomorrow.
I happily express my gratitude.
-Thank you very much, Master!
The girl frowned and retorted my words.
-I told you not to call me Master.
-Understood, class president.
I gave a military salute, then angrily packed my bags and left.
At this time, it was a cool, windy night, the moon was high. It was midnight, and I, who had been tossing and turning all afternoon, returned to my dormitory in a state of drowsiness.
I really wanted to go to bed right away but my sweaty body made me so uncomfortable that I had to drag myself to the bathroom.
As the cool water from the shower flowed down my body. I pondered to myself why things turned out like this.
It all started this morning.
__________________
For 3 days, when I got to experience a prison life for free.
I discovered something more interesting about my skills.
That is the skill delay mode.
Yes, when I activate my skill, I can completely pause it indefinitely.
And the surprising thing is that when I temporarily interrupt the skill, the skill cooldown still runs normally.
This means that if I accumulate enough time, I can activate multiple Boost effects at the same time.
And when I tried to accumulate time for an hour, and activated 3 boosts, my power skyrocketed.
But there's a problem.
That's when I saved up the time to use 5 boosts. As soon as the skill effect ended, I immediately lost consciousness.
And the next day when I looked at the system notification I received an overload warning.
Meaning my body couldn't withstand the pressure from using 5 skills at the same time.
If I did more than that, I might even be in danger of my life.
Perhaps the boost skill helps me partially remove the limitations in my brain and organs.
At that time, my body was definitely under a certain amount of pressure.
No wonder my untrained body was overloaded so early.
My stamina is not enough and this body is too weak to bear the burden of skills.
Yet, I thought I had just found a good hack, oh my god.
Sigh. Besides that, I also realized one more thing.
That's me being young again.
As I looked at my face in the damn mirror called the System's random reward, I realized I had become a few years younger.
When I think of someone with an adult soul like me having to repeat classes with kids 7 years younger than me the next day, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
And the next morning, I was called up and dragged to the principal's office right away.
It makes me feel as if I am a special student.
When I entered the principal's office, and faced my little principal, I really didn't know how to properly address her.
Even though I know she's over 40, she's still...
Lady Himeko, standing next to the principal, kept glaring at me as if I had a grudge against her.
Meanwhile, after looking at the file, principal Theresa smiled and said.
- The evaluation results are already available. After blood tests, we found that you have good compatibility with Honkai energy. The concentration of Honkai in your blood is up to 13.5%, isn't that amazing? When you think about it, the strongest Valkyrie currently only has 18% Honkai concentration. It means you currently have great potential.
-Oh yes.
Is it because I think too much, but it seems like she's treating me like a money-making machine.
-Good, I'm done talking. Now please fill in your information here to complete the registration information.
-Yes.
I received the form, along with a ballpoint pen I began to write.
Name: Yumeji Satsuki.
18 years old.
Hometown: North America.
I left all other information blank.
After I showed her the form again, she looked a little surprised and asked again.
- Huh? Your hometown is in North America, you don't look much like it.
I licked my lips a few times then spoke.
-Well, my father was an exiled traveler, and had developed feelings for my mother who lived there, so it turned out that I was born and raised there.
-Oh really. So why are you in Japan?
I pretended to scratch my cheek and said.
- Well, you know, boys your age are often rebellious. I just want to try that feeling of independence
-Really. Okay, I like your attitude. Himeko, take her on a tour of the school.
-Understood.
When I was taken around by teacher Himeko, I thought back to the conversation we had just had.
Obviously, it's all lies. I said that to facilitate the return of that uncle's relics.
After taking me on a tour of the school's facilities, she led me to class.
-You stay still, come in when I call.
I nodded slightly.

- Mei, please make me fried chicken tonight.
Kiana was hugging Mei begging for help.
-Is it chicken again? Kiana, didn't you eat just the other day?
She appeared to be pampered again.
-But I want to eat more, come on, Mei.
- Okay, I understand, don't drag me anymore, I'm about to go to class.
-Hey he he he!
When Kiana was happily looking forward to her dinner,...
- Ahem. Thank you everyone for keeping order.
- Aaahh, it's the class president.
As soon as Fuhua entered the classroom, she cleared her throat and everyone went back to their seats. Even Kiana didn't dare say a word.
And after that...
- Clack.
Major Himeko entered the classroom and stood up at the podium to greet.
-Good morning, everyone.
The whole class also stood up and greeted back.
-Well, today our class will accept new students.
Even though Himeko was not too happy when she said this, the whole class still roared with excitement.
-The whole class is in order. Okay, let's go in.
Right after she finished speaking, the door opened again and this time a black-haired boy with a rather handsome face and a gloomy atmosphere walked in.
- My name is Yumeji Satsuki, pleased to meet you.
As soon as he finished introducing himself, Kiana immediately stood up and pointed at him.
-W-Why are you here!!
When I heard her say that, I could only scratch my cheek awkwardly.
How should I solve this problem? I looked at the teacher who didn't have much sympathy for me.
She looked back at me as if thinking about something, then her eyebrows raised as if she had just come up with a bright idea.
- Kuhum, Kiana, please sit down for me.
- Eh, but he...
- Sit down.
Kiana was about to argue back, but with Ms. Himeko's determined look, she had to sit down sadly.
-Okay, let's see....
Himeko put her hands on her hips and looked around the class.
- Okay, then go to the empty seat at the end of the classroom on the outside row.
'The end of the outer row...? Oh you're kidding!'
It's definitely not my imagination, since this lady just smirked.
My place, how should I say it...Ah, that's right, bad luck.
As I walked past a series of desks to the back of the classroom, a voice greeted me.
-Nice to meet you.
The girl sitting on top turned to talk to me.
- Well, it's my pleasure.
Why do I feel so nervous and shaky? Well, because the person sitting above me is none other than the respected class representative Fu Hua.
-CChhiiii!!!
And what's more, I had to endure the pressure of the cat's stare from the next table.
- If you don't know anything, just ask me.
- Yes, um.
For a moment I thought she wasn't as scary as I thought or she wasn't.
- Okay, class, let's start class. Oh yes, Fu Hua asked me to 'take care' of my new friend carefully.
- Yes, I understand, ma'am.
' Take care of what!? Why don't you just say that you told her to monitor me too!'
Is what I think. Oh my god, in the beginning I felt so pressured.
~30 minutes later~
'This is easier than I thought.'
The Honkai history subject is almost identical to the game setting. So, for someone who has plowed through the manual, it feels quite easy.
~zzzzzzzz!
'Huh?'
When I heard snoring, I immediately turned my head to the side to take a look.
- ~ zzzzzzz! Hey hey, Mei, I can't eat it~~~zzzzz!
Then I immediately saw that Kiana was carelessly sleeping on the table. Besides that, you're still talking in your sleep. Something's about to happen again.
When I turned my head and immediately saw it, Himeko looked at the whole class.
And when her eyes looked at Kiana, she frowned.
I knew immediately that something would happen.
Slowly and slowly, Ms. Himeko slowly approached Kiana with the demon's shadow close behind her.
Even though Mei was trying to whisper to Kiana to wake up, it was useless, on the contrary, she slept even more soundly.
-Um, Mei, I can't eat anymore~~Hehe!
Mei covered her face with her hands when she saw Ms. Himeko standing right next to Kiana.
Quiet.
The whole class was silent, everyone looked at Kiana except the class president who was still attentively reading a book.
And then...
-Bang!
Ms. Himeko slammed her hand down hard, causing Kiana to suddenly wake up.
- What's up!? The enemy is attacking!?
I don't know if it was bad luck or not, but when Kiana stood up, her head hit Ms. Himeko's chin clearly.
- Ayda, it hurts!
- Ho ho, do you still know muscle pain? Did you sleep well, Kiana-chan.
Hearing a scary voice near her, Kiana suddenly shivered and turned to look.
-Ahaha, good morning aunt Himeko.
Blood veins appeared on Miss Himeko's forehead, she shouted angrily.
- What's going on in the morning and evening, you're so good at sleeping, why aren't you good at solving the problems on the board for me!!
- Y-Yes!
Kiana frantically left and tripped.
-Hey!
-Kiana, are you okay?
When Mei saw Kiana fall, she also asked worriedly.
- I'm okay, Mei. I do not...
~Glare~
(Forget it, her face looks like this, she must be in a bad mood!!) Kiana thought.
Kiana saw that Ms. Himeko was glaring at her, so she felt guilty and quickly ran to the podium.
But when reading the question, Kiana struggled for ten minutes and still couldn't solve it.
-Phew~~ Hahaha.
Looking at Kiana's confused appearance, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Immediately, Ms. Himeko stared at me.
- Are you having fun!?
- Yes...
- So why don't you give the award instead of her?
'Damn, I pinched my stomach to restrain myself but still...'
Well, without thinking much, I slowly walked up to the podium with a confident demeanor.
Picking up a piece of chalk even though Kiana was looking at me angrily, I still gently completed the solution in everyone's admiration.
-Clack. I've finished solving it.
Putting the chalk down, I slowly returned to my seat but was stopped by Himeko.
- I didn't get it wrong, right?
- It's true that I didn't get it wrong. But...
-But?
- But, I don't need to know!! I want you both to go out into the hallway and stand for me.
'Damn, she's abusing her power!'
