<h4>Chapter 272: Practical ss</h4>
Ray''s expression turned more and more awkward as he read the memory diary.
'' The fuck is wrong with this girl? Is this the typical heroine that people like? *Sigh* People nowadays really have bad taste.''
Ray closed the memory diaries and sighed. He currently has no intention of messaging Rin.
For heroine like this, being proactive would only be counterproductive.
He stopped doing everything, and seeing that it was already prettyte, Ray turned off the light and cuddled to sleep with Jean.
. . . . .
The next day, Ray and Jean arrived early in the morning to avoid yesterday''s scenario.
Ray knew that Rin had many suitors, and he wanted to avoid the situation where he and Rin coincidentally meet at the school gate, and Rin acted familiar with him, giving him unwanted attention and enemies.
For real, Ray was not a protagonist. He was just a side character, and he definitely didn''t want the viin to have a grudge against him. Just imagining the worst-case scenario that the viin and protagonist join hand together to handle him just because he was close to Rin had made him somehow have a headache.
He came to the ss and immediately went to his seat. He was currently not close enough to any of the guys here and doesn''t really have any intention to get closer to them.
For Ray, his aim to be here was just to get some information about the energy and solve the third game along the way. Friendship and all that bullsh*t were currently unneeded, and Ray didn''t want to fill his mind with unwanted matter like that.
Soon Rin and the others also arrived at the ss, and when Mia sensei eventually came, the ss started.
Different from yesterday. Rin didn''t look for trouble today and just stared at Ray intently. Ray didn''t know why, but this girl seemed to be very annoyed every time she looked at him.
Time flies, and now the ss is going to go through practical ss training.
Students gathered on the training ground and were separated into two groups, the group of battle Daoist and research Daoist.
From Mia-sensei ss, Ray now gets to know that the current trend was a two-member team with a battle Daoist and research daoist inside it. And because of yesterday''s event, Ray had no other choice but to be a research Daoist.
Still, this didn''t really deviate from Ray''s original purpose. Ray currently wanted to stay low, and it seems to be research Daoist was his best option.
But just when Ray was about to go to Jean and asked her to partner up with him, a new mission notification came.
.
[ DING!!! A new mission has been issued.]
[ Please partner up with Rin for the current practical ss.]
[ Reward: 200 System Points.]
[ Penalties: Every time the host says the word "I", it would be reced by Ray-Kun, and "you" will be reced by Kimi.]
.
" … "
Fuck, is it another way to coerce him to ept the mission…
Ray cannot imagine the scenario where he talks to Jean, and instead of saying I love you, he said Ray-kun love you.
So cringe…
*SIgh* In the end, his dignity still mattered.
Ray had no other choice but to ept the mission, and for this, he muste to Rin.
" Rin…"
" Humph."
" Eh…"
Ray was speechless. Why did this girl feel like she had her aunt from this morning?
If she was to continue doing this, then how the heck was he going toplete the mission.
He was going to abort this mission and return to Jean. However, when he imagined himself saying Ray-kun, he immediately swallowed back his pride and said with a gentle tone to Rin.
" Rin, can I be your partner for today''s practical ss? You are the only friend I have here."
" Humph, do you really treat me as a friend? You don''t even message me or replied back to my message. Maybe you just treat me as an acquaintance."
Ah… so this was the case.
Ray somehow remembers that yesterday night he got a message from Rin. Still, because he was cuddling with Jean, he forgot to reply until now.
'' A rich tsundere ojou sama type huh?''
A smile appeared on Ray''s face as he was able to see what was going on.
So this girl didn''t really hate him and was just being on a childish tantrum.
For this, he properly apologized to Rin, saying that he was too nervous to reply to her message, and in the end, he fell asleep because he was too tired.
If it was another heroine, they would definitely not believe this lie. Still, we are talking about the narcissistic ojou sama Rin. So, hearing Ray saying it like this, a smile appeared, and she pridefully said that she would take Ray as her partner.
.
[ DING!!! A mission has beenpleted.]
[ Please partner up with Rin for the current practical ss.]
[ Reward: 200 System Points.]
.
Ray sighed a relief as he was able to sessfullyplete the mission.
At least with this, he would not be a creep who says his own name in a third-person subject.
Soon the practical ss start as everyone gets their own partner.
Jean and the ss monitor partnered with a girl from the ss while Rin partnered with Ray.
For this practical ss, first, the research Daoist will be given time to tune the spirit beast of their battle Daoist partner.
The tuning time will take less than 20 minutes, and after that, the battle Daoists would start battling with each other.
Mia-sensei gave the signal, and immediately numerous spirit beasts were summoned in the arena.
In front of Ray now was the spirit beast of Rin. A kirin type spirit beast that was worthy of her ojou sama identity.
.
[ Lightning Kirin.]
[ Low-level King spirit beast.]
[ A kirin with the power of thunder. Its horn couldunch a heavy thunderstrike.]
[ Evolution path: King kirin, Thunder emperor Kirin, Trash kirin.]
.
'' Okay, let''s do it.''
