Chapter 127: The shock

*****

Today, even though I didn’t want to, I got up early, as the exam was starting soon. I came straight from Astrid’s office because Elena together with my Doppelganger came to pick me up this morning, because it was time to leave.

Before I left, I had to clean the place with a deep purification, leaving Astrid, who was sound asleep, in a decent state just in case. I also took Alice, who was sleeping just as soundly, with me.

Afterwards, we got ready in a nearby bathroom, I dressed the sleeping Alice myself, it’s a bit my fault so, I hope she can sleep, as much as possible, that’s why I dressed her.

It was a special clothing given by the academy for this test, you could order it according to your taste and it was made of the best materials, for the protection of the students even though they were mass-produced.

I left her spotless and dressed her without waking her up or disturbing her in the least,I’m even better at dressing the girls than I am at dressing myself, which Elena usually does.

We finally headed to the place, where we would be picked up, for the test. And on the way we parted after giving Alice to my doppelganger.

As I watched him leave with the girls, I thought a lot of things, mainly how much he could help me if something really happened, The doppelganger ability is much more useful out of combat because it consumes practically all my mana if I want him to be as strong as me.

When I create it, it is generated with no mana of its own, and would normally disappear if I don’t hold it with more energy, making it an inefficient skill in combat, although it would be good distractions, or meat shields, if I make many and weaker, but it’s still not worth it in a real battle.

However, thanks to my parallel thinking ability, I no longer need to constantly maintain it. I can leave a part of my mind in it, allowing it to exist unlimitedly without needing to sustain it, with my mana.

As long as the doppelgänger performs breathing exercises and does not overspend mana, it can recharge itself by preventing it from disappearing, and although it may not look like it because it is a being created with mana, there is always a struggle between mana expenditure and recovery.

which is a training in itself, which I now do passively, and unconsciously I can practice the breathing technique. A windfall that, once learned with the dopelganger, I could replicate with my real body. So since I created it a few months ago, it hasn’t gone away, and for me it’s like existing in two bodies at the same time.

Leaving that aside, I joined my team. There was Cordelia, Esteban, Ivan and Lys. Ivan and Lys are also in this peculiar team. I personally invited Lys, while Ivan, after being left off William’s team, came to ask for a place on mine.

’Ivan, how have you fallen so low..(¬_¬).’

Ivan was supposed to be one of the few challenges William would face at the academy. He was like... his first enemy, the typical guy who bullies you but ends up being part of your team in the end.

But for some reason his ended up being part of his gruop from the beginning. I still don’t understand how that happened.

I wonder if Cordelia who was the equivalent for Seraphina will someday give up with me like Ivan did with William, although I think this time maybe because of my interference, there was no clash or anything, neither Ivan harassed William at all, but with Cordelia he appreciated an obligatory event, which I couldn’t avoid.

Come to think of it, that family is full of problem children, you can only blame their parents....

An the other hand, William’s team was already saturated with Ban, Mike, alexander, and obviously Silvia.

Aurora or Auran, she seemed to be sick or something, that’s why she didn’t come, I wondered if she had a problem with her demon side, I decided to find out later.

Generally, when you miss a monthly exam, you run the risk of failing the classes, but when you are at the top like the members of our group it is unlikely, although I would have to try harder next time.

leaving that aside, it is thanks to Silvia, who despite her shyness has always collaborated a lot with the plan and our alliance of ’silvi-chris explosive team’, causing that even in the second test, which was done in pairs, resulted in me being paired with Lys and her with William.

Silvia has been a good friend to my alternate self and I understand why, as long as it’s just as friends we both hit it off very well, yeah, we get along very well...humm.

’I wonder, if as a friend she would let me touch her big...no!!!, remember that’s not something friends do’ leaving aside, the thoughts, intrusive, that appeared for no apparent reason.

Cordelia didn’t mind at all that Lys and Ivan joined our team, nor that we had to take out one of the less useful members who was the second footman. Besides, Lys and Ivan are talented, so convincing her was not difficult.

..

I have become closer to Lys, and our Silvi-Chris team has worked out quite well, we have managed to spend more time together thanks to Silvia’s help.

I have also made an effort to get William to choose Silvia as a companion for some events and events like the previous test and spend time alone with him.

Although the ungrateful Silvia does not appreciate it and does not take full advantage of it, the good thing was that I did make sure to take advantage of the moments with Lys.

So far, although slow, everything has been flowing well between us. Although I must admit that Elena has been subtly pressuring me lately, which made me feel a bit incompetent.

Well in fact, I have not been sitting idle, and besides Lys in fact a new person, a called my interest, and it’s someone, I don’t know at all, or rather my alternate self never, met her and I was the first to meet her.

it was like love at first sight honestly I felt,’ the shock’ the legendary shock of lust...I mean love and I have been courting her and I feel it’s a matter of time.

Besides that my focus is to be more active with Lys so I don’t hesitate to flirt with her, and as she is always weak, to the compliment and I don’t hold back at all, I think she is already at least a little aware of me.

Lys is also strong and has reached the fourth metamorphosis. Her focus seems to be on speed, as she has not shown any lustful interest towards me.

I guess she is the type of person who only shows that kind of Emotions when she has gone deep enough into a relationship. I’m not worried, I’m happy with the friendship we’ve developed, knowing her that is the right way to go.

Meanwhile, Ivan seemed somewhat isolated, and honestly, I didn’t mind, but I saw how he approached Cordelia and tried to make conversation, I wonder if they will be aware that they are from the same family?.I paid a little attention to their conversation notice that they have no idea.

Ivan is the illegitimate son of the current patriarch and Cordelia, well who knows, she could be his sister, cousin, aunt or something like that...., it seemed that Ivan is flirting ?

’oh! ...maybe he finally, wants, to free, himself, from his bachelorhood’, pitifully, it was a bad target not to mention that Esteban was in fact interfering, to block Ivan,

I’ve noticed is that Esteba and the other flunky are trying to woo Cordelia. I don’t know if it’s because of her status or her looks, but those idiots joined her in hopes of winning her over.

’tch.... What a simp!’, . I, of course, have a much more noble reason for being here, unlike them.

’I definitely didn’t join with such a silly reason as they did’.

While I was thinking all this Finally, a flying boat arrived to pick us up and take us to the trial.

Ivan, on the other hand, added another rejection to his growing list.

..

.

"Good morning, everyone."

"Yes."

"Good morning."

"Hi, Chris."

"..."

It was the fourth day since the test began and we were already halfway through. While it wasn’t a particularly difficult test, it wasn’t being easy either, especially due to Cordelia’s poor leadership.

Putting aside the first day, where I nearly went crazy because she decided to hunt beasts in a specific area, none of which were edible.

It wasn’t until dusk came that I finally managed to catch something we could eat. I had never been so envious of my doppelgänger, who not only got food faster, but Elena prepared it for him.

Due to the nature of our parallel thinking, it was as if I ate, but felt my stomach empty at the same time. It was like wearing VR goggles and seeing food that, even though I was putting it in my mouth, I had no use for.

That only made me crazier, so I completely chose to ignore what my doppelgänger was experiencing until I finally hunted something down

After, I concentrated on the test and every now and then I would tell Cordelia which direction to go to avoid running into my doopelganger’s team which luckily we were left at a decent distance.

Because of my bad feeling I didn’t want us to get too far away, but at the same time I wanted to avoid an unnecessary encounter since Cordelia could attack me so from both sides I controlled the distance.

Leaving that aside we came across many other teams, but with the rules limiting us, it was better not to fight. Finally, we came across William’s team. Obviously, we didn’t fight, but as a good advisor, I suggested to Cordelia that we form an alliance.

Anything can happen, and I want to keep my acquaintances and friends close in case something does. It may sound paranoid, but in this world I have learned to trust my instinct, which, oddly enough, has always been quite accurate and saved me on several occasions during training in the forest with Elena.

Something was definitely going to happen, and not just because I had raised a flag earlier. Although that was the origin of the bad feeling, the closer the time got, the more certain I became and from then on we formed a group until today.

..

’Well, I got ready anyway,’ I thought as I sat down on a log. Outside there was only Cordelia, Alex, William and Lys; the rest were still asleep. It was early in the morning, so it was no problem.

It was the second day since we met William’s team, and it was also the day I realized that in this academy there are many people who don’t know how to cook.

Of the ten of us present, almost no one knew how to cook, not even a simple piece of meat on the coals. Even William, with his ’protagonist power’, did not know how to cook, like many others, as the son of knights who got their food from the lord’s cooks or went to restaurants.

Now that he is a nobleman it is much worse, and most here had one of those two backgrounds. Not even Lys, in whom I had hopes, could cook. Only Silvia and I had culinary skills.

Honestly, I was surprised that Silvia could cook, being the daughter of a nobleman. Besides, excluding me, she was the only one with that knowledge.

I know how to cook, in fact, I am decent. They say that the attribute of being a good cook is something girls find attractive, so I decided to polish it. However, Elena is overwhelming in the kitchen, and I often prefer her food, although mine is not bad at all.

In fact, Alice and Selene always praise my food, but I know their judgment may be a little biased and Selene is fine as long as it’s edible. It was only yesterday that I realized that my cooking was decent, after getting the thumbs up from everyone.....
