Twin Reincarnation: Epics Of The Worldline

[Lucy's POV: ]

-Ding-dong!

"Alright, everyone. Time's up."

The test paper and the answer sheets that were present on my desk vanished with a green light right after he announced the end of the test, and, soon after, the system walls also vanished completely.

"Good work everyone. You can go and help with the preparation. The association president is an important guest as you all know and, just the fact that he had chosen our school out of all the other academies in our galaxy for this visit makes this more important than any of you can imagine.

Don't make us teachers lose face before him, or else you know the consequences won't end with only a few light punishment or a lot of homework."

Mister Villex looked quite serious about this. His eyes reflected his inner emotions as well so when the students looked at his eyes, and that look, they knew doing anything foolish during this visit would be asking for suspension.

[ "Fucking bastard. Bluffing sure suites his weak ass." ]

[ "Words, El. He is still a teacher right now." ]

[ "Tsk." ]

The test they gave us was definitely not the same as everyone else. We knew what their objective behind it was as well, but they did not know that we knew why they would give us something like that as a test.

'They knew we were smart and knew a lot about this world and everything within it. So, perhaps, they might have speculated that we had some kind of special skill or an inherent knowledge of this world and the Worldline and were testing their theories.'

They did not know we knew how they functioned, and how they would react to our responses, so… as a sweet answer to their questions, we gave our genuine responses, mixed with some unfortunate sorrows.

'They will have fun when finding out just how much true the answers of the questions they themselves did not know the answers of, actually were.'

El was excited to see what their reactions would be, however, for now, she was angry at our homeroom teacher's bluffs. 

However, anger was not enough justification for her choice of words. He was still the teacher as long as we were inside the classroom.

"El~! Brother Lucy~!"

The teacher left the classroom before us, and, as soon as he was out, the class was filled with sighs of relief and voices of happiness at the finishing of the first of their tests.

There were five more left, but the world theory was considered one of the difficult ones so, they were happy that it was finally over.

And, since we can talk now, Nes came running at us again, and this time, she and El hugged each other properly for a perfect three minutes.

They didn't care how everyone else were looking at them and were misunderstanding their pure bond for a romantic relationship.

'Wait, now that think about it, weren't there rumours floating about the two of us before we went to the dungeon?'

Were they still around or did these three weeks changed the point of view of the students here?

"It's good to see you again, Lucifer. I thought I wouldn't see you again." 

This statement came from Ras, obviously. He was the only person that could say such red flag worthy lines in this entire classroom.

"Ummm… I know this isn't the right place to ask this question, but, are you alright?" 

"Come here, lovely."

Cathy came to us, to me actually, but before I got to say anything, El grabbed her into their hug, and then, the three of them were hugging…

And the others in the class were watching them, thinking many weird things, fantasising, wishing they were being squeezed in the middle of the three of them.

It was quite a sight for the others, however, it was a genuine sight for those of us who understood the current situation.

'We had vanished for three months. Not a week or two but three months and our helpers were attending the classes in our stand.'

They knew it was weird and the teacher knew of it as well, however, if the teacher himself did not do anything against it, they couldn't question their presence in their classes.

The two handled things quite well anyway, so, it was fine on this end. And, since they knew the two of us had gone out for some important business from Nes, they understood our situation as well.

"Were you planning on arriving today since you knew about this visit beforehand?" Rex asked the question while looking at the girls with a little confused look.

He understood what they were doing and why they were doing it, but, I can tell there was some kind of weird feeling disturbing him from the inside.

His eyes were switching between El and Cathy as well… wait.

It couldn't be…

"It was a coincidence that we finished our work today and arrived just this morning, however, after knowing the situation from miss Eva, we couldn't possibly miss this opportunity. 

You must know what the visit from the President of the IAA means, right?"

IAA, or the Intergalactic Adventurer's Association was the main association that we had to become part of after getting enough qualification and achievements. 

It was the mainstream for the adventurers that happened all throughout the Worldline, however, not just anyone could join that part of the association.

There were strict regulations that one has to follow, however, we aren't talking about them right now.

'Yes! His eyes… they just reacted! Damn~! He has started liking her subconsciously~!'

Rex was starting to like Cathy! His eyes said it all!

El will be surprised-

[ "Lucy! Lucy! I think Cathy likes Rex now!" ]

[ "Hmmm? I was just going to tell you Rex has 'that' look along with the look of confusion on him… but how do you know she likes him?" ]

[ "I can tell. Don't you know my otherworldly intuition? I know her enough to know when she likes someone. And it's distinctly unique when that someone is her only and only childhood friend." ]

She was talking about intuition but I know for sure she figured it out through her heartbeat. She's a pervert and though Cathy is pretty pure, it doesn't matter to that pervert sister of mine.

"Visit from the president of IAA. From what I know, it is an important event for everyone belonging to that academy in that time period.

The president is famous for being a strange being that had come from somewhere outside this world, there are even rumours that say he is a being who's not only stronger than some of the gods, but is also a being of a level we couldn't fathom with our mortal understanding."

He paused for a moment and noticed he was staring at the three of them too much, and came back to his senses, looking back at me with a small sigh.

'He was feeling a strange kind of emotion that he could not understand yet, but this was the start of something. And this start will soon bloom into something pretty attractive.'

I don't know what happened in the last few months when we were gone, but, whatever happened, it must have brought the two of them closer, and, what more could we ask for?

This was pretty good for a three month development considering they don't even feel closer than being acquainted during their first year in the game.

"Huuu… alright, girls. Let's go out and catch up. Come along if you have nothing to do, boys. Ah, and, Lux!"

Rein shouted at her sitting on the very opposite side from us, and with a surprised look that was certainly not expecting this call, Lux looked back at her.

"Come along~!"

El invited her even though she doesn't interact with anyone much. An invitation that caused a silent uproar throughout the classroom that made everyone look at the simple looking girl with glasses that had been sitting quietly all this while.

"Let's go~. Lucy, bring Leon and Lily with you~!"

She didn't tell her any details and just dragged Nes and Cathy along with her, leaving the confused Lux behind.

And since the other's gazes were a burden to her, she packed her things and hurriedly followed behind the three girls in an awkward manner.

"Haaaa."

She told me to bring two more people along with us, and one of them was understandable.

Others knew we were acquainted with Leon and they knew he was closely acquainted with Lily. The two of them were progressing pretty well and if miss Eva and Friday had followed our instructions well, they should be pretty close by now.

So… 

Though none of us knew where El was going, I looked across the classroom and glanced at Leon and asked him to follow us through the eye contact along with Lily.

He seemed confused what was going on, many of us were, but, since we also didn't wait for him before going out of the room, he had no choice but to follow behind us.

'It would have been fun if we could have brought Oak with us to whatever place we were going, but since she had alredy left the classroom right behind the teacher, she was gonna miss whatever was happening right now.'

Though, what was happening anyway?

[ "Where're we going, El?" ]

[ "To the room of Syilpheds." ]

[ "What? Why go there with everyone… oh. I get it." ]

She was bad, devious, dumb at times, cunning and cruel, however, even if she denied it, she liked these people. These friends that she did not have in the past life of ours.

'These people… they weren't just some packs of data anymore. They were real people and they were her friends.'

And, being away from them, was just as saddening to her as it was to them.

[ "Alright then. Anna, can you do me a favour? Please quickly go and fetch Oak for us. She shouldn't miss this if we're gonna have her later." ]

[[ Alright~! ]]

We were walking, following the girls towards an unknown area of the academy castle that I know for sure they have not visited yet.

Anna was sitting above my head like she usually does when she is out of her mark, so, she just flew away in the opposite direction when I asked her for the favour.

We were going to a pretty fun place that they all will definitely like, and, the reason for all of ua going there before an important event was obvious as well.

'It's going to be fun.'

It isn't every day one get's the chance to see her perform after all. 

It's going to be an exciting time even for me~.
