Just like how I imagined it would be, lessons ended as the clock showed 3pm.
(Tn: This is cause in anime yadiyada lessons and stuff ends at 3ish but for chinese schools they have to stay to 11pm or even 12am sometimes to study)
Â
Then according to plan, lets go take a look at the arts department.
Â
But before that, lets stay in the classroom for a bit longer
Â
After ten minutes or so, all the students had left the classroom -- except for me.
Â
There was no students staying behind to clean the classroom, apparently because thereâs someone specially hired to clean the classroom.
Â
SoâŠÂ even though itâs the first day Iâm transferred here, no one is going to come and chat with me?
Â
I kept getting this feeling the class had a strange sense of fear towards me.
Â
I looked at the reflection from the window, there was nothing strange about me. If I was to judge my own appearance, even though this sounds shameless, I should be really cute.
Â
But then whatâs with this current situation?
Â
After signing for the unknownth number of times today, I walked out of the classroom.
Â
Following the map, I arrived at the art department.
Â
Thankfully this body does not have any strange disabilities such as unable to navigate themselves.
Â
I swiped my school card and walked inside.
Â
Lets just find a slightly more interesting society to join.
Â
1. Choir
Â
I donât have any singing talent and it doesnât seem too interesting, pass
(Tn:Â pass was said in english)
Â
2.Entrepreneurship
Â
Are you serious!
Â
It feels like even though this school is for high school students, you might as well call it a university. There was even some societies which needed a qualification certificate in order to join.
Â
As expected of an upper class posh school, it feels like everyone here has a sure plan of their future.
Â
3.Tea ceremony
Â
For a young mistress school this should be quite normal right? But for me to learn this stuff...I would rather not,
Â
Just like that, I went through all the different societies.
Â
After god knows how long, I arrived at the 5th floorââ which was also the top floor of ths building.
Â
The rooms on this floor seems to be mostly abandoned
Â
I walked towards the windows at the west side of the building.
Â
Itâs already dusk, the glow from the sun illuminated the half way through the glass panes.
Â
The walls looked like honey had been smeared all over it, dyeing it golden.
Â
My mind gradually calmed down form this soothing view.
Â
ăWhatever, Iâll take another look tomorrowă
Â
With this thought in mind, I turned around ââ and changed my mind.
Â
At the end of this corridor, there was surprisingly a society room.
Â
The room number was 5-H ââ also showing its remoteness
Â
ăSchool, monitor, department?ă
Â
I was surprised as I read out the words on the door.
Â
It gave of a feeling of righteousness and urgency.
Â
I knocked on the door out of curiosity.
Â
No one opened the door
Â
The door wasnât locked when I tried turning the door knob.
Â
ăExcuse meââă
Â
I opened the door.
Â
The room was also dyed gold, just like the hallway.
Â
Compared to the western style of the building, this room formed a sharp contrast. The room itself was minimalistic and the dust could even be seen in the air under the rays from the setting sun.
Â
Storage boxes were stacked all around the room, the bookshelves at the walls were filled without gaps.
Â
Within the sea of books, the girl quietly sitting on a wooden chair reading seemed especially conspicuous.
Â
She sat there upright, her two legs together.
Â
In her hands was a unknown book, from the looks of it, Italian? Or was it French?
Â
I donât know the language so I could not make a proper judgement.
Â
Her long hair was braided, this hairstyle fits few people, but with her it was surprisingly beautiful. There was a special kind of scholarly aura to her.
Â
ăOh? Thereâs someone who wants to join~ă
Â
ăAh, no, I was, just, taking a, look.ă
Â
ăBut to be able to find this place shows that you ahve no interests towards the other societies right~ă
Â
Just as she said
Â
ăAllow me to introduce myself, Iâm called Hata Kokoro, grade 11. This is the first time weâve met.ă
Â
ăAh, Iâm Kanade, Sai. Greetings, Senpai!ă
Â
ăSince Sai-chan wants to join the occult society, this society is quite suitable for youă
Â
ăEi? How did, you, know what, I had, in mind...ă
Â
ăBecause you were able to find this place~ă
Â
There was nothing wrong with that.
Â
ăThen, what does, this, society normally, do?ă
Â
ăItâs actually exclusive for the student council members, responsible for the problems that might happen to students in school. Itâs also responsible for assigning jobs such as inspections. If it was to be compared to other schools it would probably be something like the disciplinary committee.ă
Â
ăBut then why would there be such a specific societyâŠ.ă
Â
ăBecause normally itâs really boring, so I just wanted to find a place to read books~ă
Â
I feel like the image of her being a scholar was slowly being destroyed,
Â
Tn notes: I realised this chapter took me 3 hours to translate wow. I feel like if I picked up another novel I might work faster (Logic pro) so yeaâŠ. I also read the comments you guys leave, itâs really nice to see people actually enjoying this novel (and telling me to hurry up Iâm not a M I swear). The 22 one stars on NU was probably because of my update speeds teehee. Thanks to [ ( ͥ° ÍÊ ÍĄÂ°) ( ͥ° ÍÊ ÍĄÂ°) ] (nice name btw) finding a mistake in the last chapter kudos to you :)
Tn notes 2 (8 hours later): I could have released it along with the pictures but then it would mean I had to work a extra 10 minutes! Sometimes when before I post chapters I realise I end up missing sentences because I forgot to seperate them and they don't end up getting translated. Good thing I could just do them here right before I post it without any proofreading... There are also a few references can you spot them?
