The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 18: Feng Wu Wants to Study at Xingguang Holy Academy

The three older men from earlier were very helpful and gave Feng Wu and Tian Ke directions to the school. See that clock tower? Its a part of the school. If you keep walking towards it youll eventually reach the academy.

Jier got off the flying beast carriage and followed Feng Wu and Tian Ke. When he found out their destination he was even more unwilling to lose them.

Feng Wu, are you really not gonna take the entrance examinations for Xingguang Academy? They only open enrollment once every three years. Im sure youll learn a lot of advanced sword techniques there. Maybe even God level ones. Jier thought she was an interesting girl and that it would be nice to have a classmate like her.

Feng Wu bit her lip but didnt reply. Instead she hugged Little Bun closer to her chest and just kept walking to the bell tower.

You really dont want to go? The cooks at the school are first class so the food there is delicious! There are lots of specialty dishes from all the countries on the continent. So if you become a student, all the way until you graduate, you get to eat till youre stuffed! Hed come to understand her nature from the time they spent on the flying carriage. Food was definitely her weak point.

Sure enough Feng Wu paused and turned around. Her eyes shone as bright as the stars in the sky. Its all delicious?! Really?!

Really really. Jier nodded his head emphatically. The food is super tasty. And you wont even need to spend money. As long as youre the top student in your grade, the school will comp your meals. They take really good care of all their top students. So how about it?

I want to go there. Feng Wu stated in a daze. She was being told there would be delicious food to eat. Not only that, it could be free delicious food! She was very happy.

Tian Ke sighed. This girl so simple. Where there was food she would surely follow. He shook his head looking at her. She was going to be tricked and sold one day.

But it was great. Jier felt a sense of accomplishment at having convinced her.

Yeah and even if youre not the top student, if youre too poor to afford lunch, the school will give you free lunch. Theyre prepackaged meals but they are filling and nutritious. Its just that you cant customize it and there isn't much variety.

With her at the school he wouldnt have to worry about not having anyone to hang out with. Jier didnt want her to regret her decision so right then and there he made up his mind to accede the top student position to her. This way she would get lots of preferential treatment as the top student. Xingguang Academy was hard to get into, but once you were in, the school made sure to take good care of you.

Feng Wu had no resistance to free things. She was really interested in the free meal aspect. So if youre poor you get free food? She really wanted to know how to apply as a poor student, so she asked how to go about doing so.

What poor student? If you dont have money just go with this older brother. Ill take you out to eat as much as you want. Jier slapped his chest proudly. He hadnt asked about her home situation, but he wondered if it was really bad.

No. I want to apply as a free meal student. Also youre not my older brother. Youre a friend.

That last part Jier made a complicated face. Clearly they were referring to two different things. The brother she referred to was hundreds of thousands of miles away from the one he had in mind.

Feng Wu kept on insisting that she wanted to apply as a student under financial distress.

Ugh! OK! Apply! Just apply. Ill help you fill out the application! Jier cried out in frustration. Also you know the term brother, when I said it, I didnt mean it literally. Its a figure of speech, a joke. Jier found it hard to believe this girl was real. It was the first time he had seen such a thing. What was wrong with being his sister? Do you know how many girls wanted to be his sister but had no shot in hell?!

Joke? Whats that? Feng Wus childhood had been very simple. The one she had most contact with was her master, and Master had a very indifferent attitude. As a result she had grown up to this point without ever encountering a joke.

This question made Jier and Tian Ke want to vomit blood. What deep isolated forest did this girl come from?! both wondered.

A joke is something that doesnt have to be taken seriously. That is, its for playing around. You dont have to take it to heart. Jier tried to give her the simplest explanation he could think of.

Feng Wu listened intently. Jokes didnt need to be taken seriously. It was just playing around and didnt need to be taken to heart. She repeated what Jier said in her head so as to memorize it well.

If Jier knew she was taking what he said so seriously and was studiously memorizing it, he would have surely wanted to vomit even more blood.

Because Zhongyong was such a big city, it would take them over an hour to walk all the way to the academy. Jier wasnt into that. So he suggested taking a carriage, his treat of course.

The carriage he hired was large and comfortable. Within twenty minutes they reached the campus gates. The area was deserted though as most students were still on break and wouldnt be returning until the next day. The only person in sight was an elderly guard.

Hello grandpa. Were looking for Tian Kes aunt. Can you help us and have her to come out? Feng Wu first politely greeted the old man before asking him for help. Master taught her to always greet others first before asking for things. It was only proper.

The old man looked at her and saw that her eyes were clear and clean. She was definitely a What you see is what you get kind of girl - very straightforward. He swept his gaze across Tian Ke. There was nothing much to see there, he was just a tiny sprout after all. The red-haired boy though he was another matter altogether. The amount of magic emanating from him was very strong. The fact that he wasnt purposefully projecting it outward was what made it so incredible.

Was he one of the eight kids exempt from the test? Well whatever. Whether he was or was not, theyd find out in a few days. Finished checking them out he returned his gaze to Feng Wu. He appreciated simple children like her so his attitude when he spoke was amenable.

What is that aunts name? Is she faculty or staff?

Tian Ke felt the old mans eyes turn to him. It felt like he was seeing right into him. It made him really nervous! So much so that he moved and hid behind Feng Wu without even realizing it. He breathed a sigh of relief when he felt the gaze move away from him. Although he was afraid, he really wanted to meet again the only relative he had left, his beloved aunt. So he gathered his courage to answer the old man. He took a breath and said, My aunts name is Tian Yue. Shes the wife of the head chef for the student dining hall. She told me that she also worked in the kitchen prepping.
