Chapter 07

Thankfully, the room was different from the Rakudai anime. If I'm correct, in the Rakudai anime, the dorm was one apartment room containing one bathroom and a small kitchen, and I remembered one bunk bed.

This dorm was more like the same as in the Infinite Stratos, with more modernized buildings and, of course, the room too. Once I entered the room, it was the biggest and the most expensive-looking room I have experienced in these two lives. The bed already looked much better and more comfortable than the last fancy hotel I had yesterday.

"Oh, this is amazing." In a daze, I appeared impressed to see how my dorm room looked. Honestly, I didn't think I would experience this kind of stuff in school after all. "Oh, it looks really soft." I still felt amazed, ignoring my belongings and jumped onto the bed.

"Geez, it's a good idea to clear things up first," Stella said it all earnestly. She even tried to pack up her belongings immediately.

"Hm, Instead, it would be better if we set the rules of living together first. Like where we both sleep and the like? Which bed would you rather have here or near the window?" I asked her while cosying up on a comfortable bed that was so cosy to use.

Stella looked at me with such a complex expression. Even so, she couldn't hide her blush.

"Well, you're already used to that, so I will use the bed near the window." Stella quickly replied with a reasonable answer.

"Is that so? But I prefer my bed near the window too." I responded to Stella's reply, which made Stella's expression quite funny. It was mixed with annoyance, and I didn't know what to do with my selfishness.

"In that case, why did you use that bed anyway—?" Stella asked me a question.

"Well, I want to try it, and this bed is the closest one," I replied with such a simple answer that made Stella face in disbelief.

"Is that so— Okay, then. You can have that bed. So is there anything else?" Stella agreed with my selfishness and asked me once again.

"Hm, I don't have any special requests. How about just a standard roommate?"

"Are you fine with it?"

"Yeah, I don't think we need to make it too complicated. As usual, we can't touch other people's stuff, food or drink without asking. I think that's enough."

I told Stella that, but she looked at me a bit suspiciously as if she didn't really trust me at all after teasing her a lot. Honestly, Because the ratio between men and women was so far apart, the average woman spoils the average man in this world, making men naturally spoiled.

Even in the orphanage, they usually spoiled and gave such ultra favouritism to men. Because they were men, they didn't usually put them in orphanages for a long time since many families wanted boys and immediately adopted them. Especially those prominent or wealthy families, it looked like a symbol of prestige for them to have a man in their family tree.

I personally received various adoption offers. Still, I declined them even though some wealthy families could make me live a happy life without any effort. But in the end, my only goal was to become a strong magician, and I didn't really care about becoming rich or something similar. I don't know what those parents want after all. Usually, people will frown or laugh when I say that my dream is to be a strong magician. Which was the reason I had doubts about accepting their adoption.

In the end, I stayed in an orphanage for a long time and joined several small competitions. Still, I never really got past the national level in mixed competition. I didn't have any rivals in male competition. I won several matches nationally, but it was far from the women's level. I always lost and let alone touching the national level. Even getting into the regional level was very difficult because I could only do it in the last two years.

But, thanks to that, I got a lot of money from sponsorship, prizes and other stuff. Since it wasn't that much, a man could stand to change with a woman. Making my stock as an individual was quite attractive. The last time, I got a sponsorship with one of the biggest Magic Tech Companies. They personally asked me if they would make any blazer I wanted. They pointed out that I could change my blazer, but when I said this blazer was a memento from my parents. They were fine with remodeling the Katana to become modern and kept it the same since they found my story to be a good story to sell.

"Okay, I guess the rules between the two of us as roommates are pretty much like this," Stella said while she put those rules on the terminal before she sent a file for me to sign.

"Hm, Ain't you take this too seriously?" I said that while in the end, I signed those files.

"Of course, if my roommate is a girl. I wouldn't make this kind of stuff, but you're a man. I think this will be great for the two of us. Since if something happens, we have this agreement." Stella gave me such an explanation. While she suspiciously looked at me and at the same time, she took several times to peek at the bed that I used before.

"Really? It feels like you are really staring at something too much…" I replied while she blushed.

"What!?"

"You don't think about the bed I used just for a moment, right?"

"Wait, how— NO, I don't think something lewd about that…" Stella, slightly panicked, replied to my question, but well— Stella's expression showed a face that said, 'How can he guess what I'm thinking? It's embarrassing.'

Honestly, I felt sorry for Stella at this moment. It looked like because of their mana, the girl hormone acted like a guy hormone in my previous world. That was why I felt like I could understand what she thought for a moment. Since I experienced it at the same point. Maybe—

"No, of course not— You need to trust me, okay." Said Stella, armed with a slightly nervous smile.

"Okay, then…" I replied unflinchingly. After we both settled the issue about the rules between the two of us as roommates, we both packed up our belongings. As for Chifuyu, she left immediately after escorting the two of us to our room and giving us the key. She also told me that the dorm room has showers, but this dorm also had a large bath, but it looked like I couldn't go there.

By the time we were done with that, it was getting dark, and it was probably time for dinner.

"By the way? How about our dinner? Are you going to the canteen or making dinner by yourself?" I asked Stella, who nodded in agreement.

"Well, we don't have anything to make our dinner anyway. On the paper, it's said that we could get dinner from six to seven in the first-year cafeteria. It looks like they have a free menu and other menus to get." Stella replied readily and explained about this dorm work.

"Hm, okay then— We still had time to get some free meals. Do you want to go there together?"

"Ah, of course— I feel a bit worried about you going there alone." Stella sighed inwardly while responding to my other question. She looked at me with a worried look.

Honestly, I was pretty worried about myself going alone to the cafeteria, and it would be really helpful if she came along with me.

"Good, let's go," I said, imagining what life would be like in this dormitory.

But as I had expected, upon arrival at the cafeteria closest to our room in the first-year area. The cafeteria was full of girls that looked in all directions. Even all of the employees were women in the cafeteria, something that I didn't need to be surprised about.

The free meal I got from the cafeteria was the standard meal of a slice of salmon, with rice and miso soup, and also some vegetables as a side dish. It was good food for a free meal too. Of course, I could eat other food in this cafeteria if I paid for it. But for now, I wanted to try some of this free meal. At this point, this academy really showed why they were one of the best academies around.

It looked like Stella picked the same menu as me. As a foreigner who just came here, Stella had a good attitude and used chopsticks well too.

"I wonder how long you have been in this country?" I asked Stella because I wanted to know how much my knowledge of Stella differed from what I had in my memory.

"Hm, I arrived in Japan a week ago." She answered.

"Is that so?"

After that, I had a conversation with her while enjoying my dinner. It was kind of a bit tricky because I always enhanced my senses with magic. My sense became a bit better than the average person's. I could feel the girls around me kept their distance, but they were clearly just watching me, barely hiding their interest.

Sometimes I could hear some of them discussing if they would try a strike conversation with me. Still, it looked like the presence of a high-ranking magician and royalty from another country was too much for them to handle.

Well, it looked like what Chifuyu said about the academy ensuring my safety was entirely truthful since they put someone like Stella as my roommate so she could act like bug repellent for me so the girls wouldn't swarm me.

I need to thank her. She wanted to know how I could control my mana so efficiently, right? Well, I think I could teach her that.
