The Girl Who Unknowingly Became Harem Queen! 12 Class Is In Session

Calming the cla.s.s of excited, chatting students with a fake cough, Ms.Nunnall beamed a smile towards Maria whose mind still couldn't believe what had happened. Though at the sound of her teacher's voice, she was brought out of her thoughts.

"Congratulations, Ms. Rosendrey~! The type of magic you wield inside of you is Celestial Magic. A special type of magic which grants the user the abilities to summon beings from the Celestial World to their aid, and over time, once a magician has matured enough, the beings will even grant the magician special abilities!" explained Ms. Nunnally, though she didn't speak the downside that this type of magic holds for the magician out loud.

'The downside to those who wield Celestial Magic is the strain it puts on the magician's body. Not to mention the heavy toll of magic it takes from them. Unless that girl has a large chamber of magic residing in her, her future as a flourishing magician is bleak,' mused Ms.Nunnally, before explaining the academy's regulations and courses they would be taking as first-grade students.

So far Maria felt okay when she found out most of her cla.s.ses were the basics such as: Math, Science, Language Arts, and History. Though she felt the opposite when hearing the three other courses that she was not so familiar with, which were: Basic Arts of Magic, PE also known as Defense and Enhance Magic Training, and Intro to Magical-Beasts and Plant-Beasts.

Maria's first three hours were spent revisiting the basic elements of Math, Science, and Language Arts, though when her fourth period came around, Ms. Nunnally began explaining the Basic Arts of Magic to them. Something which was outside Maria's knowledge and peeked at her curiosity. "It is said that those who are gifted with magic are blessed by one of the Sacred Ancient Trees, the holy patron of magic. Not only were humans gifted with magic but so were the creatures of the land and even plants."

"Amongst those of the human race who are gifted with magic, there exists the nine main types: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Lighting, Sound, Light, Black, and Celestial. These are the common types of the magic that you'll see throughout the world; though outside the main nine magic types, there exists such a thing called Bloodline Magic." Ms.Nunnally was writing notes on the cla.s.s chalkboard, writing the next word she said in bold letters that she underlined.

"The origin of Bloodline Magic varies, but one thing that is for certain is that, as the name implies, it is a special or unique type of magic that only those of a certain bloodline can inherit," explained Ms. Nunnally. Hearing this, Maria was reminded of a famous anime show that was dear to her heart.

'So sorta like a kekkei genkai from Naruto, huh?' Maria was taking notes, using the pink girly pencil that was stashed away in her bookbag. The rest of the cla.s.s was mainly spent with explaining the main key facts of magic, before promising tomorrow that they would begin taking on a more hands-on approach concerning their magic. The students for this first semester would learn how to control and shape their magic to their will.

Maria was happy when her fifth period came around, since it was her lunch period, meaning a happy break from cla.s.s. Walking outside of cla.s.s with Mai, Maria was happy to have met up with Kurako and Shirone again, who she introduced Mai too. "Mai, these are my two maids, Kuroka and Shirone. Kuroka and Shirone, this is my new friend Mai who I was telling you about last time."

"So this is the friend ojou-sama mentioned~!" Kuroka seemed excited to have finally met the new friend their ojou-sama spent hours talking about.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Mai-sama." Shirone curtsied in front of Mai, who Maria noticed was unused to being shown such level of respect.

'I almost forgot; despite Mai's carefree and energetic personality, she hides a deep pain.' A forlorn expression briefly appeared on Maria's face, before deciding to change the subject.

"Shirone, do you and Kuroka know a good remote and quiet place that we can have our lunch at?" Maria asked Shirone, who was quick to give her an answer.

"I have the perfect place in mind that suits your request, ojou-sama." In no time Maria found herself walking on the stone path located in the school's rose garden maze, which soon led them to a nice sized patio with few trees. In the center was a white gazebo with vines and roses growing all over it. A few decorative white chairs and a table sat underneath the gazebo.

"It's perfect!" Grabbing Mai's hand, the two girls rushed forward and took a seat. Mai sat her lunch box on the table as Shirone took out Maria's, before setting it on the table. Once the lid was opened, the two girls couldn't help but be awed at the contents inside. Which were a few sandwiches, all cut into perfect triangles, a few sliced apples in the shape of a flower with a cup of caramel sauce in the middle, along with a few bright colored macaroons and decorative bite-size cakes.

'Okasan, you truly spoiled me too much!' Maria felt nothing but undying happiness, promising to thank her overly affectionate mother when she returned home later. Looking over at Mai's lunch box, Maria saw that Mai was just as fancy looking, but with more meat dishes piled into hers.

"Wanna share each other's lunches?" Maria offered, after eyeing a juicy sausage that was in Mai's lunch box.

"Sure~!" excitedly answered Mai, who was also eyeing one of the delicious cakes that was inside Maria's lunch box. The two continued sampling each other's lunches as Shirone politely served them tea while Kuroka amusingly stood to the side, giggling whenever one complimented a sample of the other's lunch.

Lunch would have continued peacefully if the sound of a few boys nearby in the area hadn't interrupted them. Looking towards where the noise was coming from, Maria saw a few boys from her cla.s.s; one was holding a cute blonde lolita looking doll.

"My dad told me that a real man shouldn't play with dolls! That those who do are weak and a pansy just like you!" The boy holding the doll taunted as the two other boys who were standing alongside him laughed as another boy tried to reach for the doll, only to have it thrown towards one of the three boys who was bullying him. Narrowing her eyes, Maria soon realized that the boy who was being targeted by their bullying was the cute little lamb Julian who was in her cla.s.s.

'Precious little lamb, it's already your first day and you're surrounded by bullies.' Seeing the three boys who were much taller than Julian, sending mean taunts his way and tossing around the doll that was obviously precious to him, caused a sense of anger to rise from Maria.

"Mean stupid bullies. I should go over there and teach them a lesson." Sharing Maria's feelings was Mai, who began glaring at the three boys, hands balled up into fists.

'I want to go over there and help, but a part of me is afraid of making the situation worse. But... I can't stand the sight of this treatment. If I turn my head away, I'll never be able to forgive myself.' Turning her eyes towards Shirone, the white-haired cat maid seemed to have understood her ojou-sama's thoughts and made her way over to the group of boys.

"You three are disturbing my ojou-sama. Please leave," Shirone spoke, voice unwavering and polite, showing them no sign of hostility. Though it seemed the boys were not happy to have someone interrupt their fun.

"Stay out of this! If your ojou-sama has a problem, tell her to come out and face me herself!" yelled the boy from before who was taunting Julian. Speaking of Julian, the lamb was caught by surprise when a beautiful white-haired cat maid stepped in front of him.

'So you can bully me next? No thank you!' Maria took a sip of her tea, keeping a watchful eye on the situation. Shirone tipped her head to the side, showing the three a beautiful, bright smile, and in a saccharine voice said,

"My ojou-sama's attention shouldn't be wasted on such low-filthy garbage. So once again, I'll tell you to leave..." Maria almost dropped the teacup in her hand when in that next second Shirone's eyes flashed a chilling bright red, eyes sharp like a predator's, sending utter fear into the hearts of those three boys as she finished saying, "Before I do something I won't regret."

Watching the three boys run away like the devil was after them to steal their souls, Maria couldn't help but think. 'Yep. I did right by sending out Shirone. Also, gotta promise myself to never in my life p.i.s.s her off.'
