I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

Matou Sakura.

A rare talent in magic, the "Magician's Egg" is highly praised by even the "Jewel Man".

If such a person were in the Clock Tower or other magician family, they would definitely try their best to cultivate them, and they would love to teach her all their knowledge and accumulation.

This is not the case for the Matou family. Matou Sakura's life can and can only be described as ordinary.

Get up early as usual, do ordinary morning exercises, go to school as usual, get out of school as usual, do ordinary club activities, do homework as usual, have evening classes as usual, rest as ordinary as possible sleep.

It's okay to choose something different. Sakura's morning exercises and evening classes are not about running and fitness, but about martial arts and magic.

Except for this one thing, Sakura is no different from an ordinary middle school student.

There is no intrigue and deception among magicians, and there is no more naked jungle law in the mysterious world. Some are just plain and simple.

What a waste of talent!

This will affect her development!

This is ruining her!

Sakura had heard this statement more than once, and had also asked her brother why he didn't take her to the clock tower.

The answer is that now is not the time and there is no need.

It was not the right time because Sakura was still young and mentally immature, and Shinji's own wings were not strong enough to ensure that his sister was safe and sound.

It's not necessary because Sakura has no shortage of famous teachers to guide her. The "heritage crystals" left by Scathach, Aozaki Orange, Yusitiza, and the "Gem Man" who shows up from time to time are already enough for Sakura at this stage.

After all, she was not Shinji who followed the path of erudition. She could just stick to the runes and not be bothered by the complicated world of magic. Once you have fully understood the inheritance left by Scathach, it will not be too late to go to the Clock Tower to expand your knowledge and borrow stones from other mountains to attack jade.

Moreover, you can also guard this home and this common destination for everyone. Just the thought of someone waiting for you at home will motivate everyone who is running around.

In this regard, Sakura listens to her brother the most. Shenji said so, so she did it, feeling at ease.

No matter how prosperous the outside world is, she stays peacefully in a small city in western Japan, not going anywhere, and living a step-by-step, almost unchanging life.

It's the same today.

Get up at six o'clock, after a simple wash, go to the backyard to perform two sets of "women's body protection techniques", move your body thoroughly, and meditate until seven o'clock according to the method taught by the master.

Then I had breakfast with my family and said goodbye to my adoptive parents who were checking their itinerary for the day.

Since there were no club activities today, Sakura's movements were much more leisurely.

Take your time, take your time.

Maybe it's because she's spent so much time with immortals like Chengzi and Justeza who break through life limits, but Sakura's character is also surprisingly calm.

Classmates who like her say she has the style of Yamato Nadeshiko. Those who don't like her say she doesn't look like a young person but looks like an old lady.

Although Sakura needs to have good looks, a good figure, a good temperament, and a good personality, no matter how good she is, she cannot be liked by everyone.

What you like may be what others dislike.

Some are personal aesthetic issues, and some are due to jealousy.

For example now——

A certain boy called Sakura to the rooftop during lunch break and said to her eagerly and shyly:

"Mato Sakura, I like you, go out with me."

Sakura lowered her head, half troubled and half apologetic: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness, but, but I'm sorry, I can't accept it."

"Why, why?" The boy was shocked.

"Because I already have someone I like, so I'm sorry."

After saying that, Sakura trotted away from the rooftop and out of the boy's sight. She is no longer the little girl who matured late in the past, and she knows the best way to deal with it.

On the way back to the classroom, she heard many students talking along the way.

"Again?"

"Who is it this time?"

"I thought I saw the basketball minister passing by just now?"

"Wow, this is a famous figure. He is good at basketball, handsome, and rich. What else is she dissatisfied with?"

"Who knows, I don't know what she is thinking anyway?"

"Isn't it because he is using this to increase his worth?"

Sakura had heard similar rumors many times and no longer cared about them.

Because her favorite brother and sister told her so.

——You are mediocre if you are not envied by others.

——Those people are jealous, jealous of you. My sister is so outstanding and cute, of course those ordinary and incompetent guys will be jealous.

——You don’t need to take it seriously at all, be yourself, show your excellent side, let them realize the gap, and feel jealous.

——I just like to see those incompetent guys gnashing their teeth behind your back, but they can't treat you like a defeated dog.

I have to say that my brother and sister really get along in some aspects, although they always seem to be at odds with each other.

After returning to the classroom, familiar female classmates gathered around and repeated similar conversations.

"Which number is it this time?"

"Ninth or tenth? I can't remember clearly."

"Tall, handsome, petite and cute, I have them all. Tell me what else you are dissatisfied with."

"I-I already have someone I like." Sakura whispered.

"Liar, you say that every time I ask you, but we have never met the person you mentioned."

"Yes, it's true. He's just busy and has very little time in Fuyuki."

"You're probably talking about your father, right? This answer doesn't count."

"No, you have all seen it, father."

"Yeah, who is that?"

"hey-hey……"

Sakura smiled lightly, lowered her voice and chatted with her friends about girlish whispers until the lunch break was over.

There are not many classes in the afternoon. However, Sakura usually leaves school late because club activities take up a lot of time, and she is the one who usually leaves things in order at the end.

Some people think this is stupid, but Sakura doesn't think so, because she is improving her housework skills in this way, just like she still insists on cooking by herself even though there are servants at home. Even though Shinji would tell her in advance before coming back, Sakura still insisted on cleaning Shinji's room every day.

Because she wanted her brother to live in a clean and tidy room whenever he came back, and to eat delicious meals whenever he came back.

These two things are her insistence, and she will not let them go no matter what.

Adoptive mother Elsa said you were stupid, but Sakura retorted with a smile:

"Mom, you taught me to be the person he can't live without and let him develop a habit. This way, no matter where he goes, he will never forget you."

"People are as big as little devils."

Erza gently poked Sakura's forehead, and the latter blinked, got into Shinji's room, and whispered softly by the window where he liked to sit most.

"Brother, Sakura had a great time today too. In the morning..."

Sometimes it's to the phone, sometimes it's to an empty room.

Every time it's the same beginning, every time it's the same ending.

"Brother, I'm waiting for you to come back."

One day, two days, three days...

One year, two years, three years...

Wait silently.

PS: To be honest, Sakura is the one least likely to go dark. Think about it, after being abused by Master Chong for so many years and still maintaining such a character, it is even more impossible to have such a warm and harmonious family now.

PS2: Recommended book, I sincerely recommend, "The Future Daughter Comes to Me", a campus youth love story with a father's love as a mountain, fun and interesting, the author has a big imagination - I will give you a summary of the main plot: a daughter from a different world line travels through time and space to find a It tells the story of a male protagonist who is still a high school student and helps him pursue his wife.
