"Charlie! Do you mind if we have a talk?" A girl that looked like a fairy said. The fairy race is said to be easily recognizable. Due to their colorful hair with, their pretty wings, and pure personality, people usually get along with them.
She had her long pink hair in a pigtail style with ribbons tied to each side. Since she was a fairy, they're relatively shorter than an average person with a height of 4'6, green eyes that resembled an emerald, with her chest size as flat as mine. Her wings, shaped like the letter B, were transparent with a shade of pink.
With all the female acquaintances I have met, the females in this world look much better here. They're more colorful with vibrant colors, and their skins are so transparent, with nothing causing them to be damaged. Most of the people I met could easily be a 10/10. The worst I saw is at the lowest, 8/10. Maybe it's magic that improves everyone's look.
It's a shame I couldn't be in a relationship with my current status, or I would be at risk of causing problems for the person I was with and me.
"I don't mind," I replied to her. I had nothing else to do. Olivia was probably in her class and didn't seem like the person to leave class.
"I'm Tess Styrmir, a fellow classmate of yours." A smile radiated from her as she introduced herself.
"Styrmir, do you need anything from me?" Unsure of her motive, I asked right away.
She pouted for some reason, "Call me Tess, everyone who knows me calls me Tess, and I called you out because I want to be your friend." Did she just ask me to be her friend? Is she asking me because of my household or talent?
Tess, who saw my expression, panicked, while Serena, who still hadn't spoken, smiled, amused by our expression. "I approached you because I thought you needed a friend. But, seeing today's event, making a friend would seem like it would be harder." That stung. Someone pitted me because I didn't have many friends.
"If you don't want to be friends, I can leave you alone." She looked down, saddened, thinking that I would reject her.
Seeing that she didn't have any impure motive, I accepted her friend's invitation. "I don't mind being friends with you." I accepted her; besides, I could use another person to talk to if Olivia wasn't with me.
Looking at Serena, an idea popped into my head. "Tess, do you have any plans for the day?" Serena heard that frown, and Tess, who was thinking, shook her head, telling me that she didn't have anything planned for today.
"Since we're new friends, why don't we do some bonding!" Tess, who heard my words, became excited.
"Sorry, Serena, but I want to hang out with Tess for the day." Serena looked livid when I said that. So that's what you get for kissing me without my permission. You gotta learn from your previous mistakes.
Tess, who was still excited, didn't overthink. I dragged her away from Serena and left the school building, and we both took a stroll around the area. The sun, which shined brightly, increased my absorption rate, leaving me far ahead of anyone who would gather mana.
"Where do you want to go?" I asked, unsure where to take her as I hadn't given much time to think of a place to go.
"There's a dessert store I wanted to try out but never got the chance. Could we please go!" While the sweets I tried in this world are mediocre at best, it wasn't wrong to try others.
"Lead the way." So agreeing to her choice, we head there. On our way, I saw a magic store. I would like to visit it later if I have nothing else to do.
Arrived at "Cafe Dulisseur," an average-sized cafe but nicely decorated with a good atmosphere making it comfortable to relax with a friend. I could see seniors of our school chatting with each other while they snacked on their desserts and drank their beverages.
Taking the window seat, Tess and I looked at the menu. There were a variety of sweets and drinks we could order. So many choices could be made, from cakes to cookies and tea to fruit beverages.
Having my choice made, I looked at Tess. Unfortunately, she seems to be unable to pick her choices.
"Have you decided what you're going to get?" She shook her head. "There are too many options, and I can't decide." At this rate, it would take her forever to pick something.
"Just pick something that tickles your fancy. If the dessert here is good, we could always come back." Saying this, I helped her narrow the choices she wanted to pick on something she wanted.
Having to decide what she wanted, she called out to the waitress. "Hello, what would you like to order?" The waitress said, smiling.
"Could I get a slice of a strawberry shortcake, a slice of chocolate mousse, and a white tea?" After hearing her order, I ordered mine. "I want a slice of mango mousse and lemon tea with honey. I would also like to make it hot." Listening to our orders, the waitress left to get our ordered menu.
"I know this is rude to ask, but since we're classmates, what magic do you have?" I knew nothing of Tess. We're classmates. I would know her magic sooner or later, but there is no harm in learning it now.
"Oh, I don't mind. I can use my magic to create wind." Ah, the classic elemental magic. Wind magic is handy. It could do a lot of things. The user could make it defensive, attacks that could shred people to pieces and increase one's movement and flight ability. While elemental magic may look plain, the wind is just one of those that are handy.
"That is a nice ability, useful if you know how to use it." Then, talking to Tess, the waitress brought us our desserts.
