Aiming To Be The Best Magician In The World! 102 Ariana's Crisis 3

"Than what happened for you to be so depressed if no one is bullying you?" Sam asked Ariana who was chuckling at him.

"It's nothing. I'll handle it myself, I don't need anyone's help." Ariana said blatantly as she stopped chuckling at him.

"Are you sure about that? If one is able to handle something by themself they wouldn't have a face that says they are struggling ye know?" Sam said to Ariana.

"En…" Ariana said as she rubbed her arm as she looked down at the floor with a crestfallen expression on her face.

"So what actually happened?" Sam asked her seriously.

"Well, it's like this. So I am being forced to m" Ariana said but was cut off by something.

Ring!

The school bell had rang indicating it was time for next cla.s.s to start.

"Oh no! I am late to cla.s.s! See you later!" Sam said as his expression paled before he sped to his cla.s.s.

"Em? See you later?" Ariana said with a puzzled expression on her face. She had clearly misunderstood what Sam's sense of importance was.

'Does everyone act like that? Why does he act so reliable but ends up really unreliable? It makes no sense to me at all, it's actually hurting my brain…' Ariana said.

'Wait, the bell rang and he said he's late to cla.s.s. Wait a second…" Ariana muttered and until she realized what had just happened. Just the thought of what was about to happen to her had made her pale in fright.

"Oh no! I am late to my cla.s.s as well!" Ariana said in a fearful tone as she immediately sped to her cla.s.s as well.

…

"Sorry I'm late sensei!" Ariana said as she ran to the field behind the academy.

"It's alright, it's your first time being late so I will excuse you next time. There are some students that are hurt, please help in healing them." Her teacher said as he pointed towards a batch of injured students.

"Yes sensei!" Ariana said as she ran towards the batch of injured students and started to heal them as she comforted them and wished them good luck on their next battle thus increasing the morale of the students.

"Thanks Ariana." The student said as they stood up and walked to the side to regain some of their mental fatigue before they went back into combat.

"Sigh, why do I have to heal them? Oh right, Sylvie, Elise, Maria, and Lance are in this cla.s.s as well. I bet they are talking about how strange I am.

And indeed, she was correct. The three of them are trying to come up with reasons for Ariana's depressed face this morning they had seen her with.

The depressed face which she had hidden with a joyful expression for the injured students to help them improve their morale. Thus leaving many people to be unable to know the pain that she has kept beneath the facade.

…

"Lance, Maria, have you seen how odd Elise has been acting today?" Sylvie asked Lance.

"Hmm? I haven't seen her at all today so I really don't know what you guys are talking about." Lance said as he looked around the crowd to find a Ariana with a joyful expression on her face.

"She looks normal to me, doesn't look like there is anything odd with her today Sylvie. You might have been imagining things as you did sleep the entire day yesterday." Lance added.

"Humph! I do not imagine things! Are you slandering me! Was that a direct insult to me Lance!?" Sylvie pouted as she started to give Lance light punches like a baby.

"Okay okay, sorry. I did not mean anything by that. All I want to say is that she looks normal to me alright? I don't know what you mean by that saying that she looked really sad and all in the morning Sylvie." Lance said as he tried to stop the little girl from attacking him as he pretended it hurt him.

"Humph! I'll let you away with this time! Maria, how about you?" Sylvie pouted as she looked at Lance before no longer sparing a single glance at him as she looked at Maria.

"En, same as Lance. I haven't met her in the morning at all. However, I can definitely tell that her smile right now is forced. Many bad people go to my family for healing so we can tell if they're having a forced smile or not." Maria said.

"She's forcing her smile right now?" Elise muttered as she then looked at Ariana who was joyfully interacting with the other students.

"Now I can see it. She really is forcing her smile. I can see her hopelessness and bitterness in her eyes." Elise said.

"Okay, now how do you see that?" Lance asked.

"We get used to it due to our interaction with the wilderness. So we use the eyes and movements to find out what they mean, I mean the animals of course as they cant communicate with us." Elise said.

"Oh, I see. How about you Sylvie? You see anything?" Lance asked her.

"No? Why? I don't really see anything. I never really left my house much aside from going to this academy and a few shops to floof floof someone." Sylvie said as she looked at Lance.

"What do you mean by floof floof?" The three of them asked as their eyebrows twitched.

"Oh, she's a beastkin. So I floofed her all over by touching her tail and her ears. It feels so relaxing~ You should try it out sometime." Sylvie said as stars were s.h.i.+ning in her eyes.

"How about no…" They three of them denied the invitation.

"Oh, that's sad. It's really nice. How about it Elise, Maria? You should try it! It's really nice! The soft fur of hers is really relaxing!" Sylvie tried to encourage Maria and Elise to join her in her fun.

"No thanks, I have stuff to do…" They said as they immediately looked away from the depressed Sylvie.
