Chapter 10 - Little America

"So~ the last spatial rift is actually in… a high school?!"

Lin Yi looked around at the place, filled with the sweat and energy of countless teenagers, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

"That's right, it's here."

Rui Rui nodded calmly.

"Ha~ Then we're in big trouble. I can't possibly protect all the students from being killed by the dimensional demons, can I?"

Lin Yi waved his hands helplessly.

"Although it's difficult, we must do it."

Rui Rui, however, seemed very resolute about this, like a mature hero who had truly experienced great disasters and grand events. Wow~ she was full of charm.

"Hmph~ That makes me seem very weak and useless."

Lin Yi muttered to himself with a smile and followed Rui Rui's footsteps, preparing to enter this seemingly famous high school.

"Wait! Are you two students of this school?"

But their first step into the academy met with an obstacle. They had to convince the academy's security guard that they were students here, or…

"No, we're here to deal with demons and fix the spatial rift."

"Huh? Really? You're going to say that?"

Lin Yi was truly surprised by Rui Rui's honesty.

"I know it sounds absurd, but it's all true. If you don't let us in, everyone in this school will be in danger."

"…"

The security guard at the gate raised an eyebrow.

"Okay, nice story, but this is a school, not a gothic children's storytelling session. You two can leave now."

"But!"

Rui Rui still wanted to try.

"Don't make me repeat myself, otherwise I'll have to remove you by force."

"…"

There was nothing they could do. Rui Rui could only leave helplessly with Lin Yi for now.

"Hmph~ Alright, Rui Rui, not everyone can understand the other side of this World. Although there are indeed superheroes and supervillains here, most people are still unwilling to believe in magic and demons."

Rui Rui looked at Lin Yi, who remained silent.

"Hmm~ You see, the walls here are nothing to me, so if I go in, there would be no problem. Then~"

"How about I go in first, just like before, clean up all the demons, and then find a way to get you into the school to repair the spatial rift?"

Lin Yi's idea was good, but…

"No need, I have a quicker way."

"Huh?"

Under Lin Yi's astonished gaze, Rui Rui gently waved her hand, opening a portal into the school.

"What?"

"You could open portals all this time?"

Rui Rui did not answer.

"Ha~ So what was all that walking we did before?"

"Is it the price for not trusting me?"

Lin Yi wiped his face helplessly.

"I guess so."

Rui Rui smirked, and together with Lin Yi, easily entered the school.

"Ah~ A place full of youthful vitality and foolishness, a school…"

Lin Yi looked around, hands on his hips, exclaiming.

"Why do you seem to dislike school so much?"

"Of course I hate school. I've never experienced being a student in my life. Looking at the students here who can laugh freely, I'm truly jealous."

Lin Yi said.

"You've never even been to school?"

"That's right. Just like you, we both have unknown pasts and secrets that separate us from ordinary people."

"Otherwise, why would a child almost sixteen years old feel no tension or confusion when coming to another World?"

"I'm simply a child abandoned by the heavens, completely abused and forsaken by my own World!"

Lin Yi flailed his hands dramatically.

This dark demeanor fascinated Rui Rui, who possessed demon blood.

"So sweet."

Rui Rui quietly sighed.

"Huh? Ezio?"

Just then, a familiar voice called out.

"Ah?"

Lin Yi looked up blankly and bumped straight into Gwen, wearing her casual student attire. It turned out this school was the one Spider-Gwen attended.

"What are you doing here?"

Gwen looked at Lin Yi and Rui Rui, confused.

"Ezio?"

Rui Rui looked at Lin Yi, equally confused.

"Uh~ Is there really such a coincidence in this World?"

Lin Yi was a bit speechless.

Gwen glanced around at the crowded school square and quickly led Lin Yi and Rui Rui to a secluded spot, the school's storage room.

"Alright, what exactly is going on? Why are you at my school? Are you following me?"

Gwen's face was full of confusion and wariness.

"No, why would you think that?!"

Lin Yi was speechless.

"Then why exactly?"

"Ha~ Alright, actually~"

Lin Yi looked at Rui Rui.

"What's wrong? Actually what? Hurry up and tell me."

Gwen anxiously waited for an answer, but Rui Rui maintained her cool expression, giving Lin Yi no chance to speak.

"Ah, anyway, your school is in trouble, and we're here to solve it."

Lin Yi could only explain it that way.

"Trouble? What trouble? Can't you just explain everything clearly?"

Gwen didn't understand why Lin Yi was holding back.

"Uh~ About that, why don't you ask the person next to me? Let me introduce you, Gwen, this is Rui Rui. Rui Rui, this is Gwen."

Gwen's gaze finally fell on Rui Rui.

"Uh~ Hi, so, why are you at my school?"

Gwen tried to ask, but Rui Rui remained silent and introverted.

Gwen waved at Lin Yi with confusion.

"Uh~ Rui Rui is quite introverted, so she's not very good at talking to people."

"Why do you call him Ezio?"

Just as Lin Yi finished speaking, Rui Rui added:

"…."

Lin Yi felt instantly awkward.

"Huh? Because that's his name, isn't it… or is it not?"

At that moment, Gwen seemed to realize something.

"Uh~ Hmph hmph~"

Lin Yi chuckled.

"Hmph~ I thought that was his mentor's name?"

Rui Rui's tone became slightly cold.

"Mentor? You have a mentor?"

"Doesn't everyone have their own mentor?"

"So Ezio isn't your name?"

Gwen looked incredulous.

"I originally wanted to act cool and use this name to guide young people as a grand mentor."

Lin Yi laughed again.

"But you're young yourself."

Gwen was speechless.

"That's not a contradiction. A very young grand mentor~ Isn't that explosively cool?"

"…."

Gwen and Rui Rui were simultaneously speechless.

"Alright, so that's your fake name. What's your real name then?"

"Ah~ Jack. My real name is too common."

Gwen nodded, understanding.

"So what kind of trouble are you here to solve at my school?"

"Why have you been keeping it a secret from me all this time?"

Gwen stayed on the main topic.

"Uh~"

"Because the trouble involves demons."

"Huh? Demons?"

"Not serial killers, real demons. Terrifying creatures from a higher dimension."

"Creatures far beyond mortal comprehension."

"…."

Gwen was bewildered by Rui Rui's words.

"You see, this is why I didn't tell you directly. One, Rui Rui might not agree. Two, you probably wouldn't believe me."

Lin Yi put his hands on his hips.
