Chapter 196: Bumped Accidentally
Elysia and Evelyn came out of the ladies\' bathroom with the latter wrapping her arm into the former\'s arm. Evelyn seemed so happy and comfortable doing that when they were walking side by side.
*bump*
"Ow!"
There was a girl\'s scream of pain as Evelyn opened the door. Unfortunately, it seemed like this door had hit the poor girl who was about to enter the bathroom.
"Ahh, please forgive me, I didn\'t know if there was someone--" Evelyn apologized with concern, but she did not continue when she saw the victim who was hit by the door.
The girl with medium length dark hair and brown eyes had an irritated and angry expression. The poor girl was holding her slightly reddish forehead.
Unfortunately, that poor girl was the girl Evelyn had labelled as rude, she was none other than Serena. One thing was strange, Serena looked maliciously at Elysia as if the innocent Elysia was the culprit.
"Excuse me, Serena. I opened this door and accidentally bumped your head. You should have looked at me, not Ely. Hey, why did your gaze immediately change when you looked at me?" Evelyn questioned that emphatically. She also pulled her best friend a little away from the girl who could explode at any time.
"It hurts! You shouldn\'t open the door with force. Look, my forehead is scuffed and swollen because of you. Didn\'t you ever think that someone else would open the door from the other side and get hit?" Serena gritted her teeth before screaming her complaint. She immediately swallowed back her anger because it was still in public, and her interlocutor was the real princess.
"How do I know someone on the other side of the door is coming in? It was just an accident and a coincidence. Please forgive me, Serena. Hey, it\'s me, look at me. What are you doing looking at Ely again? She didn\'t do anything." Evelyn stepped forward, right in front of Serena.
"Apology can\'t cure everything. Look what you did!" Serena pointed at her red forehead as if to ask for some responsibility. She didn\'t care that the girl in front of her was a princess or not. It was apparent she was hurt, and she didn\'t like it.
"Ahh, it turns out like that..." Elysia suddenly spoke, then she stood beside Evelyn.
Without giving any warning or asking for permission, she reached her hand to near Serena\'s forehead to use a little fake Healing Magic. She healed Serena\'s forehead, which was only slightly rosy.
"Pain, pain, go away. You will be fine and get well soon. Please forgive us. Eve only opened the door, and there was no deliberate factor. Look, your forehead doesn\'t hurt anymore, right?" Elysia reconciled the atmosphere with ease.
The perpetrator had apologized, and the victim was healed. That way, there wouldn\'t be any ongoing fuss over this trivial matter. Unless, if one of them was really looking for trouble.
Hearing that, Serena raised her hand to check her forehead. It was right, she didn\'t feel any pain or anything. So, was that Healing Magic? This hateful girl could also use that Holy Magic?
The annoyance and a little bit of wrath that were present suddenly turned into jealousy and envy. Even so, Serena also couldn\'t vent anything because she had no other reason to argue.
"Hmph! Fine, tha- the next time, be more careful." Serena snorted and walked past Elysia.
Then, she was followed by her maids, who slightly wobbled as they walked. Even so, they entered the bathroom by embracing each other\'s shoulders, then closed the door.
"What was that? I thought we were going to have a little argument, but it turns out she just snorted and ran away." Evelyn just watched the closed door in a murmur.
"That\'s fine, Eve. Use your time in more useful ways than wasting time on arguments that can be easily resolved. Oh yeah, didn\'t you say yesterday that you wanted to contact your family, Eve?" Elysia shook Evelyn\'s hand for attention.
"Oou! You\'re right, Ely. I need to go to the Mage Association before going to economy class. Phew, I almost forgot." Evelyn wiped her non-existent sweat with a sigh of relief.
"Well, the economy class starts at two. We have plenty of time, let me accompany you."
"En, that\'s better, so I don\'t have to go alone. Yo we go, go-go~" Evelyn declared with an exuberant expression, her best friend offer was more than welcome.
They both walked back to the field and saw some of the students were trying to stand up. For some other students, they could already stand up and were helping their friends.
"Wonderful, you are standing and in quite a good shape." Evelyn greeted her informant before she left.
"En, yes, thanks. We were lucky enough to use Reinforcement Magic on a small scale. Are you leaving, Miss Evelyn, Miss Elysia?" Betty replied after patting her pants to reduce a little dirt and dust.
"Thank Goddess, we wanted to help you, but you can stand on your own. That\'s a good sign and delightful news. Hmm-hmm, if you take the economy class at two o\'clock, you\'ll see us again." Evelyn pointed her finger at herself and Elysia.
"Ooh? Are you going to economy class this afternoon? That sounds good, we can study business together~" Joanna hummed as she stepped slowly with Lana and Maggie. They hugged each other\'s shoulders, so they didn\'t stagger... Betty, who could walk by herself, didn\'t forget to help.
"Hehe, we have a business to work on later. Study well and prove your skills. If your performance is satisfactory, maybe we will recruit you. See you later." Evelyn waved her hand at the four girls.
"See you later. Please be careful when you shower. If you still feel a little limp in your legs, then showering while sitting down might be an option." Elysia also waved her hand lightly. She gave thoughtful advice before leaving.
"Un, thank you for your kind advice, Miss Elysia. Maybe, the four of us will take a shower with two groups so that we don\'t fall or slip." Joanna glanced at her dorm mates, and they just nodded. It wasn\'t the first time they had bathed together with two people at the same time.
"Uhn... That\'s a good thing, bye." Elysia felt a little strange considering Evelyn\'s earlier invitation. Even so, she waved her hand once again.
"Un, see you in economy class later." Betty returned the wave of the hand.
After that, Elysia and Evelyn walked away from there and came out of the training ground building. Their departure was watched by several male students... However, the two girls just ignored the male students because it had been their experience since they both jogged.
On the other hand, Joanna and her dorm mates walked towards the ladies\' bathroom. At that moment, they didn\'t really understand what Evelyn had said. They just thought it was nothing but a joke or a play on words.
"Are you both feeling healthy and fit? There aren\'t any after-effects?" Instructor Dillon was walking over when Elysia and Evelyn were just passing through the exit.
"En, we are physically and mentally healthy. It\'s time for us to go, Instructor Dillon. See you again, thank you for asking." Evelyn gave a clear nod with a smile as she glanced at the dozen academy medics behind the instructor.
"Understandable, have a great day." Instructor Dillon nodded, then he and academy medics rushed into the training ground.
Evelyn glanced at them one more time and only shrugged her shoulders. She wrapped her arm around Elysia\'s arm again, then they walked away.
"Ely ~ Eve ~ You\'re finally out."
A pleasant voice came from the side. Simultaneously Elysia and Evelyn turned their heads to the source of the sound.
"Ah, that\'s you, Ella. Have you been waiting for us on that bench, since noon?" Elysia greeted the girl who was approaching.
"Ah, uhm, not too long, really... May I know, what were you doing in the knight class earlier?" Elle shifted the topic with a sideways glance.
Elysia just smiled slightly at that. A clear answer from just that simple gesture. Ella had been waiting a long time, and probably since before noon. However, Ella didn\'t want to talk about it so that no one felt wrong.
"You know that just now, Ella. We were learning Reinforcement Magic, although it\'s still in the introductory stage." Evelyn answered Merrily when her friend came over.
"Ow, that must have made the body a little weak. En, it\'s understandable that only a few students have left the training ground." Ella put her hand on her chin and nodded in understanding.
"Ella, you didn\'t tell us that you were coming to our class. If you told us yesterday, maybe you didn\'t have to wait for us that long." Elysia asked softly with concern. She felt a little bad if she made someone wait like that.
"Ah, it\'s fine, Ely. I forgot to tell you. Uhm, occasionally coming without prior notice isn\'t bad either." Ella wagged her hand to calm her friend\'s worries. "By the way, where are you two going? I want to come too."
"We\'re going to the Mage Association. Let\'s go there together." Evelyn invited Ella with kindness.
"Un, yay." Ella clasped her hands with a cheerful smile. After that, the three of them left together.
So unfortunate, a group of student council members came after the three girls left the training ground building area. They came to meet Elysia led by Rosie. However, they would wait meaninglessly, and no one could be blamed for that.
