Sylus's POV
" wake up Sylus, it's morning,the day to meet new people " Asta's voice came through my head.
*Yawn*
I sat up on the bed looking around trying to remember what happened last night, seeing the cream colored curtains pulled over the floor to ceiling window leaving a few gapes for the sunlight to pass through , I was still in yesterdays clothes not that I remember what I was wearing but it smelled like strong drinks, and the shoes I probably kicked away, yeah I'm sure I was drunk yesterday,
everything came back to me in seconds, the boys and I went to the western island for some relaxation and some free time before we started as trainers...
but we ended up taking a week long vacation only returning last night, and yeah I was about half drunk so was Dia but Idris seemed okay .
I dragged myself to the bathroom and looked at my reflection,
man I look like shit, my hair was even worst
I grabbed the towel and turned on the tap
Today we are meeting the top ten of the captain's strong students,
it's been a week already?, Five days more and I have to get back to Earth.
' Asta.. Let's make a little analysis here
The day I came here was Thursday
(and you've spent seven days)his voice came through my thoughts.
which is seven hours there.
it's already morning there, it's Friday, but it's about two am,
if I remember clearly, there was an announcement about a festival and schools will be closed for two weeks in a row,
(that makes Friday the last day at school till the next two weeks.)
if an hour on Earth is a day here,
twenty four hours makes it twenty four days
(but two weeks is fourteen days)
and fourteen days is three hundred and thirty six hours
which is three hundred and thirty six days here,
(don't forget the Saturday and Sunday before the week starts,)
yeah, additional forty eight hours (days) is three hundred and eighty four days, and the six hours(days)
(and the Friday evening, before Saturday starts) So in all I have three hundred and ninety days.
(Wow, you did all that math on your own) he nodded
yeah but don't you think it's strange how I'm suddenly free , come to think of it. Diablo is on vacation too, he has a month of vacation.
(so you're gonna drake that down)
of course...
a month has four weeks each week has seven days and each day has twenty four hours,
it's makes one hundred and sixty eight hours in a week so four weeks is six hundred and seventy two
(he has already spent two week here) he reminded .
two?
(yeah he was here before we came, remember)
so that takes
so he has about... three hundred and thirty six days.
(holy shit that's a lot of days) Asta asked .
yeah but knowing Dia, he is like in charge of this place, he would love to live her forever.
(don't you all do)
yeah you're right
he laughed
Dia and I are free ,
what about Idris, I remember he was talking about something,
but I don't remember
I'll ask his when we run into each other ,
the way all three of us are coincidentally free to train the student....'
my mind trailed off.
( ' Lady Asha' )
we both exclaimed
(she has something to do with this I can smell it) Asta shot up and I laughed.
' well She does know a lot ...and plans in a way they won't have any problems.
It's amusing how she planned this out even before telling us,
she had it all planned out even before we knew our stands. Such a genius.
(are you going to stop staring at my face and get dressed) Asta called
" your face? " I questioned
(please, as if this is how you look, you're only like this because of my appearance so it's my face you're looking at dummy ) I could picture him rolling about.
there is no point arguing with him.
today the students will be here they could be on their way by now,
I wanted to look simple so I pulled out a white shirt and black trousers, I took a relaxing shower earlier and my skin looked smooth so no need for extras.
I let my hair loss and stood in front of the mirror, compared to what I looked like in the morning, there was a mass difference.
one of the servants walked in minutes later.
" Lord, Lady Asha has called you all down stairs we have guests "
"I will be down there" she left after getting her responses
no I'm not going down there, this is fake as heck,
first of all, I haven't even eaten yet, that's not part of the reason but whatever
that servant works specifically for Diablo, if Lady Asha wants me to come down stairs she would have sent Gen, the new guy.
and also we discussed this with her, no one is coming down till the evening when they arrive, she even said it was a great idea
the whole thing screams one name..
Diablo
"Idris ?" I called him out in my telepathy link.
" do you need something, it too early" he spoke
" a maid came to me saying captain is requesting us downstairs ".
" Do I have to tell you. It's Diablo and please with the love of God don't you dare go,
if you get there it would give him a reason to command me too, if I don't show up, the more reason to complain.
Just ignore him and stick to the plan we talked about, we introduce ourselves later, now leave me alone " the line went blank.
Well then I will avoid this as much as possible.
I went out of the mansion through the back gate for my morning walks,
outside looks like a wonder land,
the garden went on further than the eye could see.
tall trees line up in a roll , the long grasses danced with the wind and flowers in bloom, the place smelled this mountains and morning due
what a wonderful morning.
The river was clear enough to see the rocks underneath the water flowing down into the sea,
birds flew around from tree to tree,
My morning walk doesn't last long mostly because I get hungry before getting anywhere.
During my walk I came across a shadow in the garden,I could make out the silhouettes of a person besides the lake a little far from me.
I walked closer and saw a young lady dressed in white looking at a bird.
" excuse me, but who are you." I got closer.
She turned to look at me but I didn't see her face.
She was wearing a fox mask, covering her face. When she saw me she run away.
I could have chased her, but naaaaah Iwouldn't want that. I haven't seen her before, she even had a Katana on her belt, is she a swordsman ?
I don't know who she could be, I mean she is not a maid, Lady Asha wants all her maid dresses in grey and black and the males dress all white, she isn't a maid.
Well whatever, I don't even what to know, but her dress with the the katana and the mask, like a fox she even has one of those bells hanging from the mask. She looked like one of those fox girl you find in Japan shrine.
Speaking of Japan I miss their traditional ramen, I could tell the maids to make them for me, so off I am to the kitchen, see this is why my walks don't last long, even if I saw a ghost girl in a fox costume.
When it's evening time we will meet these people and introduce ourselves, they already know us but who again is that girl in the fox mask I wonder if she is one of the students
"can you stop thinking about the fox girl " Asta yelled, currently I'm in my room eating ramen." it very painful to listen when every sentence end with ' who is the fox girl ' it's annoying " .
" Asta it's not every day you see a girl in fox mask " I responded
" please," he rolled his eyes " I'm in your head when you think about that girl do you know how you look like "
" can't I just eat in peace as I think about the ghost I saw"
" at this rate your obsessed with her " he replied and vanished
" why you ..."
