Teasing Angelina

Putting aside the fact that the spying was poorly done, the person himself was also quite conspicuous.

She was a blonde beauty with strikingly bright hair and eyes that were incredibly eye-catching.

However, judging from his appearance, he should be of mixed race.

But what's most striking is her strange outfit.

The short, off-white kimono is decorated with a white fur trim around the shoulders and a ruffled hem. A large bow is tied at the chest with the kimono's sash.

Below, her slender, fair legs were clad in a pair of white over-the-knee boots.

There's absolutely no sign of stockings; could it be that she's wearing plain shoes?

If it were porridge, the guy would definitely love it.

At first glance, this outfit resembles that of an underground idol from the millennium era, which is quite out of step with the times.

Moreover, even when he looked at her, the girl pretended to be a tourist and didn't seem to be spying at all, even though she couldn't have been more obvious.

"... She's a very pretty girl."

Miyuki also noticed the girl, and after carefully examining her, she gave this assessment.

"Really? Although our styles are different, I still think you're prettier, Miyuki."

"Hmm... Brother Mahiro, you usually use this kind of talk to win over girls, right?"

Although her words were a slightly disgruntled rebuttal, Miyuki's cheeks flushed slightly and her eyes darted around, showing no intention of attacking; on the contrary, she seemed quite pleased.

"No way," Mahiro said, shrugging. "I'm telling the truth. The combination of a younger sister and a cold beauty is very rare, not to mention that Miyuki's beauty is undeniable."

"Um... Brother Mahiro, please don't say such strange things in public."

Miyuki's face was completely flushed red from his touch.

His gaze fell on the girl again.

It's quite unexpected that the Stars would target this area first...

I originally thought I'd go after Tatsuya first.

After all, the danger of "Material Burst" is far greater than that of someone as harmless as him.

Is it because Tatsuya FLT and can't infiltrate?

"Hello, miss, have we met before? Why are you staring at me?"

Rather than waiting to be killed, Mahiro chose to take the initiative and went straight to the girl who was hiding everywhere.

This action surprised Honoka and Mizuki the most.

"... Shall I... strike up a conversation?"

"No, Mizuki, it's that girl has been observing Mahiro- nii, so Mahiro- nii seems to want to tease her a little. How mean of him."

Despite this, Miyuki couldn't suppress her smile; she was already prepared to watch the show.

However, after her explanation, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.

They probably thought that Mahiro had seen a pretty girl and that's why he went up to chat her up; if that's the case, then that's a bit too much.

The blonde girl who was spying on them panicked for a moment when she saw her target talking to her.

But she quickly calmed down, meeting his gaze with her crystalline blue eyes and saying:

"Sorry, I mistook you for someone else. You looked like someone I know, so I stared at you for a little too long."

"Really? You've been watching for quite a while, from the main hall all the way to the side hall. Have you seen it clearly now?"

The words were full of teasing, which the girl picked up on, and she couldn't help but furrow her brow slightly.

"... What do you want?"

"I don't mean anything by it." Mahiro shrugged. "I was just saying, just venting. Maybe you should get a pair of glasses, it might look better on you."

"Thank you for the suggestion, I'll consider it. But could you please move aside? I'm leaving."

"Please go ahead."

Mahiro stepped aside, making room for the girl to pass.

The other person simply brushed past him without a word and walked away down the long staircase.

She only breathed a heavy sigh of relief after she was out of Yotsuba Mahiro's sight and back in her rented apartment.

"Welcome back, Lina."

A welcoming voice came from inside the house, followed by a beautiful woman with short, neat hair who was wearing an apron and walked out of the living room.

"Waaah... Sylvie, I've been exposed, what should I do...?"

The girl, called Lina, took off her boots and immediately threw herself into the woman's arms.

Sylvia looked at the girl who was crying and clinging to her waist with great surprise.

"Exposed? Has Lina's identity already been exposed?"

"No, I was just spotted by the target and talked to."

Sylvia: "..."

She glanced at Lina's outfit and her eyes twitched a few times. Then she sighed helplessly, "Lina, it would be strange if you didn't look revealing dressed like that."

"Huh? This is a disguise outfit that I painstakingly selected after searching through Japan fashion photography materials from the past century to avoid unnecessary attention."

After hearing this, Sylvia pressed her temples to endure the headache.

"Lina, I don't know what you referenced to reach this conclusion, but your backtracking records are a bit too much, you know that?!"

Despite being a subordinate, Sylvia was now launching into a cruel lecture on their captain, Stars' "Sirius" Gian Hillius.

During this time, Lina was trembling with fear and didn't dare to say a word.

Ugh... Sheele looks so scary...

Chapter 98 Teasing Angelina (5.1K)

With the end of the short holiday, First High School has resumed classes.

After Kitayama Shizuku left as an exchange student, USNA naturally had a corresponding exchange student to fill the gap.

The moment the exchange student walked into the classroom, he amazed all the students in Class A.

"So beautiful..."

"She's actually a super beautiful girl!"

"In terms of looks, he seems to be able to rival Shiba..."

Whispers filled the classroom.

Even Honoka, who was sitting in the seat in front of him, leaned back and whispered to him:

"Hey, isn't that the girl we saw at the shrine a few days ago? She's an exchange student!"

"Surprised?"

"Isn't Mahiro -kun quite surprised?"

"I think it was expected."

Mahiro smiled slightly, looking at the girl on the podium who had a bright smile on her face.

"Hello everyone, I'm Angelina Kudou Shields, an exchange student from USNA. If you don't mind, you can call me Lina. Please take care of me over the next few months."

The girl spoke fluent Japanese, and even though she occasionally emphasized certain words, she was certainly a qualified exchange student who could study in Japan.

And even more importantly--

Kudou... Kyushima?

Most people, especially those from the Hundred Families Schools of Thought, upon hearing this middle surname, immediately think of the Kudou Family of the Ten Master Clans, and the strongest magic master, Kudo Retsu.

But when did an American come from the Kudou Family?

But what happened next was even more surprising.

"Faculty and staff?"

The group exchanged puzzled glances.

Following the exchange student, a young woman in a suit walked in. She was about twenty-five years old, with a pretty face and a tall, slender, and mature figure.

Even if the clothes look ordinary, just regular business attire, they can still perfectly bring out that unique and charming temperament.

She stood in front of the lectern that automatically rose from the ground, placed the large mobile terminal device under her arm on the lectern, and then looked around the classroom.

It's like looking for someone, or checking if all the students in a class are present.

But in the end, Mahiro felt the woman's gaze linger on him for about two seconds.

And he knew this woman too.

"Okay, it seems no one is absent."

The woman spoke, her voice clear and resonant, echoing throughout the classroom, while a professional, warm smile graced her face.

"Although some of you may know me, let me introduce myself anyway--"

I am Lieutenant Kyoko Fujibayashi from the Magic-Equipped Independent Battalion. From now on, I will be serving as your general counselor.

The whole class erupted in uproar.

Of course, many people know Kyoko Fujibayashi, and even more so, they know just how famous her nickname, "Electronic Witch," really is.

The problem is, shouldn't Kyoko Fujibayashi be a soldier?

How did I end up working as a tutor at First High School?

Is it a mission?

Lina, who was seated in front of Kitayama Shizuku, had a hint of confusion and bewilderment in her eyes, as well as a slight wariness.

She's starting to wonder if her identity has been exposed.

Otherwise, why would the Magic-Equipped Independent Battalion have sent people over...?

"We need to be more careful with our next move..."

Lina muttered to herself in a low voice, her gaze gradually shifting to the person in the seat in front of her.

The person sitting in front of her was none other than Yotsuba Mahiro, who had struck up a conversation with her at the shrine!

At this moment, looking at the teacher on the podium, and even though their eyes met, Kyoko Fujibayashi remained fixed on her, and feeling the faint gaze from Lina in the back seat, Yotsuba Mahiro felt that things might be getting interesting.

Angelina Sheele became an instant sensation at First High School.

First of all, on her very first day of studying abroad, she became known to everyone in the school because of her appearance.

Miyuki still holds the title of the most beautiful girl in the school.

This is a consensus among everyone, including upperclassmen and female students.

But after Lina enrolled, the "Queen" became one of the "two pillars".

The two often had opportunities to act together, which strengthened the impression that she was "as beautiful as Miyuki Shiba."

Golden hair shimmering in the sunlight, eyes that sparkle with a deep blue more brilliant than sapphire.

Her hair was as black as the night sky, and her eyes were as clear as ice and snow.

Both Lina and Miyuki are beautiful, possessing a relative beauty, and stand together they are even more striking, yet they have completely different styles.

It's like the interplay of frost and flames.

Its beauty alone is enough to make it a hot topic.

Meanwhile, Second Lieutenant Kyoko Fujibayashi, who came from the military, also became a popular figure at the school.
