The first night after transmigration, I slept like a baby.

Tired? Yes, I was too tired to the point that I fainted once I rested on the bed in that suffocating dress.

Waking up like that, my body was all stiff from the way I slept.

"I really need some comfy oversized t-shirt to crash in." I spat out a sigh while regaining the memories of yesterday.

I was still frustrated and that was mostly due to this.

====================

⟨ Quests ⟩

* [Survive]

====================

It was just telling me to survive. The hell am I supposed to do? No time limit, no hint, no rewards, no penalty.

Anyway, my worry wouldn't solve it so I had to just go on and put it aside for now to focus on today, the second day since me as Nadia became me as Vivian.

Hella confusing!

But for all it's worth, the sun was shining, and the birds were chirping… then pooped at the window and flew away.

"Perfect! Where was I?"

Right! A new day and literally a new me.

I should collect the Handgun I want from the family's Gunsmith, go through the Knights Training Manual father gave me, prepare for the exams in two weeks, decide what career I will take after graduation, prepare some fancy dress for the Academy's Spring Festival the fourth day of the finals where the grades will be revealed, and then I must survive a Heroine, a Prince, a Brother, a Friend, and a secret Hidden Destruction Route I idiotically avoided reading its spoilers.

A completely normal day for a normal high-class lady. No stress whatsoever!

Now, let's just get rid of this dress and go into something comfy.

"System Shop. Lady clothes, one set, a T-shirt, some shorts, underwear, you know the drill… maybe no underwear… I don't know."

« Results Found! »

"Shoot! Fine, let's see… this, this and this."

====================

⟨ Shop ⟩

* Shopping Cart:

— Plain Grey Cotton T-shirt

— Plain Grey Cotton Shorts

…

..

.

* Total Cost: 180 SP

====================

Good, 180 SP from my 590, this lady knows how to spend.

I was about to purchase it but saw an option called "Customization".

Curiously tabbing on it opened a bigger window where it showed the item I have and along with customization options.

====================

⟨ Customization ⟩

— Style: …

— Pattern: <1> <2> <3> <4> <5>…

— Base Color: …

— Second Color: …

— Print:

— Armor:

— Enchantment:

====================

Well, that is… actually pretty awesome. I can do just about anything here. This is really something! I transformed the gray T-shirt into some green-looking thing with a chess pattern then returned it back to its default gray color when I realized that Customizing ups the price.

A lady must know how to spend. Plain or whatever, I'll go with what I have until we get super rich on SP.

As I started changing, I painfully managed to slip out of that dress though I must admit that I had to use the push dagger to cut some straps in the back.

After acquiring this much-needed freedom, I was in awe of Vivian's body.

Color me impressed but that skin is insanely smooth. Every part was even very well-toned. I suddenly felt envy in my heart… and that's my body.

Well, Nadia was surely less fortunate regarding that but I am somehow used to this body. Thankfully, even the system picked my sizes right.

"Ah! What a bliss!" I exclaimed after slipping into these oversized clothes.

What's next? Let's see… the Knight Training Manual.

As I held it and opened the first chapter, I read some words about some Martial beliefs and discipline... Yup, I'm on board… "The Heart of a Knight must be righteous" and whatnot… maybe I'm not that knightish… "Women should refrain from training the noble art of knighthood" …… Eat shit, asshole!

Who wrote that dumb shit?

Roland Moore!

Whoops! Sorry, grandpa! Love you.

Now to the meat and potatoes of things. The book says that the theory about Aura Knights is harnessing the magic power to refine the body through intense pain and exposure to the elements.

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

Pain and Exposure?! What kind of perv were you, Grandpa?

Then again, isn't this just some normal gymnastics combined with Magical Philosophy?

So the Knights train their body normally to the point of intense pain and then the Magic Power of the Elements enters their body and enhances it similar to the way metal is forged, one must put the metal in the heat of an oven and then refine it to the best form and volume.

The Knights Manual in my hand is just like that but some training sketches show extreme kinds of training like carrying rocks and shattering trees. The more refined the training technique, the more benefit returns to the body of the knight.

Kinda cool actually!

"Okay, I'll learn it alongside the training regime I know from the organization and add in some protein-based diet."

« Would you like to register the "Moore Knights Training" in the System? »

« Would you like to restore the record "Medjay Special Regime" from the "Dormant Records" and register it in the System? »

"... You can do that, Sir System? I'm not sure if I am going to regret this or not but yeah… Do it."

« Registration Complete! »

« Similar Data Values Detected! »

« Overwriting! »

"Wait! What are you overwriting? Stop right here, you dumb computer! I am the human here! … This broken thing… That's why I was afraid."

« Process Complete! By combining the Moore Aura Manual (Uncommon) with the Medjay Special Regime methods that were refined by years of constant scientific research, a new Training Regime was created. »

« "Medjay Aura Regime (Rare)" was registered! »

« New Quest: [Training] »

Woah there! What have I done now?

====================

⟨ Quests ⟩

* [Survive]

* [Training (Novice)]

— Time: Daily Quest

— Reward: Bonus SP + Panacea

— Fail: Deducting SP

====================

Rare? Daily Quest? Bonus SP? Free Panacea? Deducting SP?

I am so lost right now. But the Medjay Aura you say? Now I feel like I have put myself in another troublesome situation.

The System generously offered me a brief description of the training manual it came up with and I skimmed through it fast. The important information was easy to get in my head anyway thanks to the Adept Scholar trait and I've got to admit, the things given by the System are super legit.

Anyway, I am fulfilled for the time being. I'll return the book to Father and tell him that I am training in agility now. Must not tell him that the family training manual in my hands has turned from Uncommon to Rare.

Looking at my bed, I saw that "Storage Purse" I got yesterday. It is basically a palm-sized satchel that can be combined with a leather belt.

====================

[Storage Purse]

— Capacity: 4 square meters

— Weight Reduction: 10:1

— Bound to User

====================

This thing is a marvel. Noble houses have storage items like that but nothing this amazing as far as I am aware. Also, it is bound to me like everything else that comes from the System, meaning I can't lose it and it can't be stolen or used by anyone else.

Inside the bag, there was only the Push Dagger. Retrieving it was quite easy and felt like doing magic. Well… it is actually Magic.

Part of me is still excited about Magic which Nadia never knew, while Vivian was kinda scared of being called a Witch… This identity crisis of mine needs a lot of work apparently, especially when figuring out the wants and the wants not.

Now, let's stop dallying and get to work. Breakfast is a must.

After walking to the door of my room and opening it wide, my whole being was suddenly stunned and a stupid look appeared on my dumb yet outstandingly beautiful face.

In front of me was a man who raised his hands about to knock at my door. This man was tall with wavy hair and a light beard, steel-colored eyed, chiseled chin, dangerously staring, and seeing me in shorts and t-shirt.

"..."

"..."

*Slam*

And I slammed the door right away.

Okay, calm down. He didn't see anything.

Everything is going to be alri… WHATTHEFUCK!

This was dangerous.

Do not panic! Do not panic!

You are a big girl!

No! I'm panicking.

"System Shop! Something long and modest with full sleeves right now! Make sure the skirt covers my ankles.

« Price: 100 SP »

"You thief… dammit! Fine."

The long skirt appeared before me and I hopped in it.

Safe!

Now, he must have seen only a blur. I moved fast. I am a nimble girl. He'll think it is nothing.

Good!

And I opened the door again only to see Mister Dangerous but Handsome on the other side of the hallway making a serious face the moment he saw me.

NO! He clearly saw everything!

"Excuse me… Lady Vivian." He spoke to me with an awkward tone.

Somehow, his voice was soothing and I recognized it.

"L… Logan?"

"Ehem… Graduate Knight Logan, in service of Lady Vivian." He bowed while saying.

Logan… my friend Logan… he… bowing?

"You changed…" Unconsciously, I spoke.

By that point, I just forgot everything that happened a while ago.

Logan was… he is my friend. He used to be by my side along with James but at some point after Mother's death, everything crumbled apart and we were all separated. Now, he has grown much taller from the last time I saw him and gained a rougher look. Nothing like the soft boy he once was.

"Yes, my lady. I guess we all did change." Logan replied remorsefully but he surely realized where that got wrong.

I mean, I surely grew up as well or whatever… let's just ignore and forget.

"It has been a very long time, Logan. I didn't even recognize you by the blazes!"

"Yes, it is as you say, Lady Viv…"

"Hey, don't call me Lady, we are friends."

"Well… excuse me, my lady, but Lord Julian has insisted that I…"

"I am the one insisting, Logan. Remember when you beat me up once?" I said as a long-lost memory suddenly rushed to my head.

"EH! How… can… No! That was a long time ago." Afraid of what I might bring up, Logan cleared his throat and acted forgetful.

"I was the one at fault if I remember. I shouldn't have put the earthworms in your tea because I was upset that you guys went to play without me… and James and you certainly did it again." The last part came out a bit heavy on me.

"You really remember things well." Logan agreed with the same nostalgic face.

"Yes, that was fourteen years ago. I was four."

There was nothing of Nadia in that conversation just now. It was all the old Vivian taking the reins.

Logan, my childhood friend and now my knight. How can my life be so blessed after having a really bad three days?

Seeing him again was like a breath of fresh air driving the senseless gloom away. Now, I finally have another ally I can trust after Father.

I know Logan well, and he is someone who won't disappoint.

"Fine, I'll allow you to only call me 'Lady' in the presence of others, other than that, we are friends here."

"... As you wish, Princess."

"Heh! Princess this time? Fortunately, that is not happening anymore." I said with a moody smile.

Logan returned as a Graduate Knight after so long. He brought a warm feeling to my heart reminding me of the time with him and James.

In summer, we would play and fool around all day just the three of us. I was just a little girl running after them but they kept me close and played with me.

Logan, my childhood friend, and James, my dear elder brother.

If only the three of us can reunite again, nothing in the world will stand in our way.

"Why are you silent, Princess?"

"Nothing. Just remembered James and us." I realized that my eyes had turned moist.

"Yes. The old times. He must be making a name for House Moore in Avalon now." Logan said.

"Indeed. Unlike some little fool, my elder brother inherited the true spirit of our house."

Remembering these things always left my heart with warmth. How much of a fool was I to take poison for a minor setback when I have such amazing people in my life?

*Growl*

"And that's the glutton we all know and love." He said.

"Oh, come on! It is morning."

"Then it is good morning, Princess."
