"Yawn..!"

It's a sunny day, I stretch my back as I wake up.

"Hey! It's time for school!!"

A few rocks are being thrown at my window.

Who is it? What is going on..?

Upon checking, I see that it's Clar, standing outside. Oh. That's right. I'm going to be late!

I dash outside, bringing my uniform with me. I put it on, over my pajamas.

Later, I arrive in my classroom.

Looks like I made it just in time..! Phew..!

"Yo. Why are you late, Vixen?"

Says Fin, sitting next to me.

I take my seat, putting my bag down as the teacher walks into the room.

"Hello! And good morning everyone!! It's a wonderful day today! Let's get class started shall we?"

It's another boring school day. I ponder, how will I get through this?

I'm a genius thanks to my regenerative abilities, healing my brain, which gives me perfect memory, so if I can just remain conscious, even barely, I can memorize everything said in this room.

"Ha....."

I rest my face on the desk.

"You seem more tired than usual. What's the matter?"

"Hm? Nothing, of course. I just had some trouble sleeping. An annoying girl kept sneaking into my room."

"Oh my. Isn't that a serious problem? You should contact the authorities immediately."

Eh... I don't think it's that serious... The police would only be annoyed if they came into my room and find nothing.

"No no... It's okay, I have enough strength to kick her out anyways."

"May I ask, who is this girl, that keeps sneaking into your room?"

Suddenly, the teacher finds out about our conversation.

"Hey! What are you guys taking about? It's not good to speak while the teacher is speaking, you know? Hah... Kids these days..."

Ah, another adult who thinks that kids are less behaved today, than in the past.

How many of these people have I met? One? Two? Maybe only one...

"Anyways. Vixen Corr. Since you want to keep talking, how about you answer this question on the board? Hm?"

How annoying. But there's no problem in showing my overwhelming smarts.

I walk up to the front, and see an easy question.

Only problem is, everyone is looking at me... I don't like having a lot of people looking at me, so I'll answer this quickly...

Oh. I've answered it too fast.

"Huh? I'm afraid that's.... WRONG!!"

Huh?! Did I get too confident? Or did I lose focus because of all these people watching?!

"W-what?! Teacher, explain to me why this is wrong! Combining magic requires one to focus on both spells, and the outcome itself. If you aren't able to do that, you shouldn't even consider yourself a magic user!"

Rloun looks at me, surprised.

Have I gone too far..? Uh-oh... Maybe I was being too angry.

"W-wow, Vixen..! I was just joking about you being wrong... But your knowledge on Magic... Hmmm..."

"Woah..! Vixen really is more talented than what I've ever expected!"

"Heh. That was no problem for her. Teacher, better not joke around professionals."

Uuu..!

This..! T-this is worse than being embarrassed..!

Why does being praised feel more embarrassing than being humiliated?!

I quickly return to my seat. Spending the next following hours thinking about what I've done.

This situation... I feel like I must disappear, and never return to this place again... H-how will I get through this class..?!

"Good job, Vixen..!"

Now's not the time to give me a thumbs up, Fin!

...

After the day was over, I went back into the sewers, where Rabbit and the rest were waiting.

The fire crackled, as Franz roamed around, reading a book.

Meanwhile, Rabbit and Frelhr discussed about how their next plan will go, eating a carrot soup.

"Nom nom... Mm... Aboug thag cannomgg..."

"Make sure to eat first, before talking. It's proper manners, and basic knowledge, you know?"

Rabbit really is good at eating carrots huh...

Even though she's not actually a Rabbit. Fufufu..!

"Ah. The Great Wizard, Vixen! I haven't seen you at school, where have you been all day?"

Says Franz, lifting her head up from reading the book she holds in her hands.

"One of my friends wouldn't stop talking to me after lunch... It was a long day, Franz. It was a long day..."

Yes. That's right. It was Clar.

During lunch, she went up, and talked to me as we ate. Later, she wouldn't stop talking, and I had to escape by making an excuse to go back into my classroom.

"Franz... Focus on our work here. We need a blueprint to make an artillery cannon."

"Artillery cannon? That's easy. I can make one right now."

Artillery cannons are simple. I saw them in movies back when I was still in Earth, Perfect Memory really helps a lot huh.

"As expected..! Now, I can finally rebuild my army."

"Rebuild your army? Why? I thought you didn't have any problems with them?"

Franz then closes her book. Looking at me, angrily.

"Uuuu...!!! Frelhr told us that he doesn't have any money left..! His boss cut off his pay because he wouldn't show up, they say."

"The army has really strict people. I wonder why his pay was cut off."

Because he was always absent..?

"Hah... Please... I don't want to hear about it. Our plan here is better than whatever nonsense they had. You can write down the blueprints on Franz's book, I'll see it later."

"Alright alright. I'll do it later..."

I then sat down next to the campfire.

A thought suddenly came up, Where does the smoke even go to? Is there just a hole in the roof?

"Vixen, want some carrot soup? It's the best thing I have."

"Don't be fooled by her lies, Vixen..! Rabbit can only make carrot soup."

I take the bowl of soup either way. It's delicious.

Wait... Even after all those years of living, Rabbit only knows how to make this?!!

"Making a bunch of delicacies won't have any change in this world, if they all taste the same. Making one soup however, if it's better than all of them, will make a change."

Isn't that from the Book of Epitomy?

Also, is that even true? Sounds like a bad advice to me. Or is it just an excuse?

"I heard that from a guy, a few hundred years ago. I don't know what happened to him later."

"Sigh... I thought you were just making up an excuse."

"It was an excuse. But I am a master of making carrot soup though."

Well. At least she's better than everyone, at making carrot soup.
