The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System?

Chapter 49 - I'm A Magical Girl, Got A Problem?



Yuna's POV

When I went to my class, and as usual, it went silent the moment my steps get through the door. I have gotten used to it by now, but it still feels very uncomfortable. I still don't understand the reason behind all the attention I've gotten from the moment I entered high school; I don't mind being stared by people once but every day? Imagine this; you walk inside your class, and the chaos immediately turn peaceful as they silently stare as you stroll to your seat. Now, tell me, how would you feel in that kind of situation? 

I'm going to be very honest; it's definitely very much uncomfortable. I'm a good girl who hasn't sworn in my entire life , but even so, the devil inside me keeps on insisting on making me swear because of how overwhelming the stress of being under such a circumstance is. Thankfully,  it didn't influence my studies as the grades stay the same. 

When I have sat on my seat, the classroom went back to its chaotic nature. Of course, I didn't forget to greet my classmate. It's too bad that my best friend and I aren't in the same class. Is she also experiencing the same thing I did when I entered the class? She never mentioned it in the girls talk; I should try bringing the topic later on lunch.

Anyway, the class goes on as always. If it weren't for my beauty, I would think that people would make fun of me by calling me as a nerd. It was because I was so focused on studies that I only woke up from it by the ringing bell that notified the students the school has come to an end for the day. I packed up and wore the bag before saying goodbyes to my classmate as I walk away. 

While walking in the hallways filled with students that couldn't wait to get home so that they could play or lazing all day, I was pondering on whenever should I visit the senior class or wait at the front gate like I was instructed earlier. To be honest, I would like to see how the senior class looks like and how she act inside the class. I never had time to stalk—visit her during class since I'm a good student who always studies in my free time and only stopped when my best friend brings me out to lunch. Isn't now my chance? But I don't want to offend my senior; she's a magical girl after all.

Just think about it, what would a magical girl do to you if you offended them? I could imagine getting burned by them because of that time in the park. The magical girl in the anime show I had watched are all pretty.. powerful. I don't dare to offend such powerful being in real life, which was why I would wait patiently on the front gate. I'm not scared of getting turned into meat paste by a magical girl, not at all.

When I was waiting and looking for the figure of senior, my best friend asked me why I was waiting on the front gate, and I don't know what to say other than telling the truth that I was waiting for senior. I think she misunderstood me as she gripped onto my shoulders while asking who was the 'senior' name and whatsoever. I just replied that the senior is a girl, and the continuous shoulders shaking stopped. But she didn't leave after that and decide to wait with me just to be sure. I.. don't know what to say.

It was about ten minutes or so that my 'senior-sensor' alarmed me. I started to look around, searching for a senior figure, but strangely I didn't see her shadow at all. I thought I just imagined it, but the senior-sensor keep alarming me which told me that it wasn't a false alarm. While I keep on looking around, I didn't notice an unknown figure in senior uniform was walking toward me. My best friend pats my shoulders and point at the senior walking toward me and asked.

"Is that the person you're looking for?"

My eyes narrowed as I look at the senior and noticed that she seem familiar, but I have never seen someone beautiful with red hair in the school before. But then, an image of senior was overlapping with the senior in front of me in my head, which brought me into a huge shock. They look shockingly identical other than the difference in hair colour! I was sure that in the senior family profile that she didn't have any twins. Who is this person then?

"You didn't wait long, did you? If so, my apologies."

"U-Uh, Ah— no, I just arrived."

It's not my fault that I ended up lying due to how surprised I am. Please, who are you? That was what my gaze was saying while I was staring at the senior in front of me. I didn't know how but she realised that I didn't know who she was as she leans closer and whispers something to my ears.

"I'm Sheila. This is just a disguise."

Oh wow. I didn't know that magical girl has such useful skill in their arsenal! Maybe a real-life magical girl is more powerful than in the series? The thought did cross my mind that it was her, but my logic sense was telling me otherwise. I mean, aside from a little different in facial here and there, and the difference in hair colour, everything else looks just like senior! I didn't know that if senior ever heard of my thought, then she would definitely be surprised as she thought her disguise was perfect. If her childhood friend found out her disguise, it does make sense, but it would be weird if it were from someone who wasn't even close to her, aka someone like me.

Of course, I never thought such a thing as I was currently impressive by her disguise. Senior give her greeting to my best friend before she asked me to follow her, which I did as I bid farewell to my best friend. While I was following behind senior, I noticed that she was looking around the place. I wanted to ask her but decide to keep my silence and just follow her along until we reach the park. And before long, we sat on the bench near the place where I saw senior at that night. I was going to open my mouth and apologise first, but senior interrupt before I could.

"Um—" "Have you told anyone else?"

"No, I didn't."

"That's good."

And then senior went silent. Seeing the chance, I decide to apologise first for stalking on her since that wasn't my actual intention. I was wanting to talk to her but not having enough courage; I ended up following her like a creep. After apologising to senior, I don't know why, but suddenly I went excited and told her how amazing she was when I saw her that night in the park. I went on and say; this is a real magician! Not like those fake magician who could only trick people's eyes with their petty tricks. The real magician didn't use petty trick but actual power like her!

"O-Oh, I see. Y-Yeah, I'm a real magician, yes."

Senior nodded her head at my word, which makes me even more excited as evident from merely gazing at my sparkling eyes. I was so excited that I didn't notice that the senior smile is actually cramped when she answered me. The image of senior in my mind has become a solid magical girl, more than ever. Afterwards, I ended up talking about my life as she listens carefully with interest. I think it lasts for about three to four hours of me speaking about my life until she stopped me since it got kind of late. 

She could tell that I was sort of sad that I couldn't continue further as she said.

"From now on you can call me Sheila, no need for 'senior'. Here, why don't I give you my phone number and maybe we could chat more?"

Of course, I agree. Now, am I considered as her friend since she gives me her phone number and permission on calling her name? I think so. I bid my farewell to her after offering a phone number to each other. With this, I now have a second number on my phone other than my parent. The first one is, of course, my best friend! Anyway, senior is really a nice person, isn't she? Although she is a magical girl, when I talk to her, she feels more like an ordinary girl. I should tell my best friend that I have got a new friend, not the fake one like in my class.

***

Sheila watched the departing figure of Yuna while having a stoic expression on her face. It was not visible, but she was currently deep in thought on her current circumstance. Sheila once had a thought of silencing the girl but didn't have any way to do it without staining her hand with blood. Although she didnt care about strangers, she won't go out of her way to kill innocent just for her secret. It wasn't worth the problem that comes with it. Her only choice was... to just let fate decide for her. 

If Yuna was someone who is closely linked to her, then if she ever gained another key...
