Classroom.

"Thompson, you answer this question."

Called on by Jacqueline, Thompson remained sprawled lazily in his seat and joked, "Ms. Jacqueline, you should call on Bookworm Peter. He can definitely answer it!"

At the words of the tall, burly Thompson, the class immediately burst into laughter.

Peter Parker shrank back, terrified of catching Thompson's eye and earning another beating.

Seeing Peter's timid appearance, the class laughed even harder. Some of the more mischievous students even started openly slapping their desks.

Rimuru silently watched it all, finding it rather unbelievable.

Getting good grades and liking to read somehow made one the target of classmates' disdain.

That was simply unimaginable in Heavenly Dynasty schools, where grades reigned supreme... This hierarchy of contempt was truly bizarre!

Normally, Jacqueline would have gone with the flow and called on Peter to answer.

But this time, she did not call on Peter Parker. Instead, she called on Rimuru.

The principal had asked her to take better care of Rimuru, but how was she supposed to do that?

Jacqueline's answer was attention—giving Rimuru more and more attention!

Rimuru stood up crisply and efficiently, then immediately laid out the entire solution process. The surrounding students all stared at her in stunned silence.

Even Peter Parker was surprised. This problem was quite difficult, and even he would have needed to spend considerable effort on it.

Yet Rimuru had answered it so easily. Were her grades really that good?

Hadn't she been a poor student expelled from a private school?

Feeling the strange looks from her classmates, Rimuru felt no emotional fluctuation whatsoever.

She had merely answered two elementary-school questions correctly. Was that supposed to make her proud?

Physical education class.

Seeing Rimuru race across the track like the wind, swiftly leaving all the other students behind—even outrunning two particularly muscular boys—the entire class was dumbfounded.

But then, a wave of cheers erupted!

"Rimuru!"

"Rimuru!"

"Rimuru!"

Not only were many of the boys shouting, but even the girls excitedly abandoned all restraint and screamed her name.

Compared to Rimuru's excellent grades, her outstanding athletic ability clearly won her even greater admiration.

Before long, many girls from the class gathered around Rimuru, asking her all sorts of questions. Rimuru handled them with ease.

For a time, they got along exceptionally well!

Watching Rimuru successfully blend into the class and make a whole bunch of friends in less than half a day, Peter Parker felt both envious and inferior.

His new deskmate was just too outstanding!

"Powell—it's Coach Powell!"

"Wow, he's walking toward Rimuru! Oh my God, does he want to invite Rimuru to join the School Football Team?"

"It's actually true! Coach Powell is a very famous coach. Countless people have begged him for a chance and gotten nowhere, yet he personally came looking for Rimuru. She's amazing!"

"Peter, your new deskmate is incredible, isn't she? She's only been here for one day, and she's already caught Coach Powell's attention. There's no way a student as outstanding as her could have been expelled from school, right? Do you know why she transferred?"

The chubby Ned sidled up to Spidey and asked curiously.

Because of his weight, Ned was often mocked and teased by his classmates as well. Naturally, he had become friends with Spidey, who suffered the same fate.

Spidey secretly glanced at Rimuru, his eyes full of envy. "I don't know either. So far, I've only said one sentence to her!"

Ned nodded and patted Spidey on the shoulder, speaking earnestly. "Accept reality, Peter. A beautiful girl like Rimuru, who gets good grades, has great stamina, and is popular with everyone, lives in a different world from us!"

Spidey nodded dejectedly. Truthfully, he did not dare interact with Rimuru too much either.

If he caught certain people's attention, he would be in serious trouble.

"Hi, Peter, have you run yet?"

Rimuru greeted him with a smile. School life seemed a little more interesting than she had imagined.

The little girls in class were super adorable!

"N-Not yet. There are still three people before it's my turn."

Peter Parker's face immediately turned red, and he began to stammer.

Rimuru smiled. This Spidey was even more innocent than she had imagined, by N times!

She had merely said one sentence to him, and his face had already turned red. This was the future, world-famous Spider-Man!

She could laugh about it for the rest of her life!

Rimuru found this immensely amusing, and the idea in her heart grew ever stronger.

Seeing the chubby boy beside Parker, Rimuru suddenly remembered—this guy seemed to be a super genius too!

Back in high school, he had been able to hack into the Department of Defense. That showed just how superb his computer skills were!

"You're Ned Leeds, right? Nice to meet you!"

Hearing Rimuru's words, the chubby boy was instantly flattered. Even his pudgy cheeks trembled uncontrollably.

"I-I-I'm also very happy to meet you!"

After chatting briefly, they heard a female classmate calling out. Rimuru answered her, then bade the two of them farewell.

"I'm leaving now. Keep it up, you two!"

Rimuru had already gone far away, yet Ned and Spidey continued staring for a long time in the direction she had left.

Ned grabbed Spidey's arm and said dreamily, "Did you hear that? Peter, did you hear that? Rimuru said hello to me—she even called me by name!"

Peter Parker was nearly shaken apart by Ned and replied helplessly, "I heard it. Of course I heard it. Stop shaking me!"

Ned said, "Peter, I'm in love!"

Peter Parker said, "Didn't you just say she's from a different world than us?"

Ned Leeds said solemnly, "Peter, you don't understand. Before true love, the world is no obstacle!"

Peter Parker: "..."

Naturally, Rimuru had no idea what Peter and Ned talked about.

However, she was rather dumbfounded at the moment.

Did Elementary School Students in the United States really mature this early?

A few Little Girls actually asked what Cosmetics she normally used. Her skin was so well cared for—there wasn't even a single freckle on her face.

What an eye-opener!

Was Cosmetics really something Elementary School Students should be getting into?

In her previous life, she had adored the twin girls Annie and Hallie from the movie "The Parent Trap" for a time, but the freckles on their faces had nearly given her trypophobia.

This had left Rimuru deeply conflicted. Such adorable twin girls—why did they have so many freckles on their faces?

Later, she asked Baidu and learned that Caucasians, due to having less pigment in their bodies, were more prone to freckles than other ethnic groups. But in Europe and America, freckles were not considered a flaw. On the contrary, children with freckles were thought to be cuter.

She had actually believed that before. Now that she heard her classmates' complaints, she realized she had been thoroughly fooled.

In Europe and America, concealer Cosmetics were just as popular.

What nonsense about Europeans and Americans finding freckled girls cute—of the ten classmates she had met, six had freckles. The only difference was how many they had.

If they didn't put it that way, most children would probably become depressed.

Just then, a commotion broke out, and the girls all looked over curiously.

Rimuru froze. How long had it been? Little Peter Parker was already being bullied again!

Why did she say "again"?
