The Dragon'S Blue Gem
(S3) Chapter 157 [The Two Players Meet ]

FUIIIIINNGGGG FUIIINNGGGG

The final marker siren of the class has sounded. The last hour in the attack magic division was a theory class, a group strategy by a teaching grandfather. Many consider it a boring class and do not pay attention, but many also remain focused on learning all that, Ruby is one of them.

The classmates soon scatter out to go home or gather with their friends. Their study hours start at 09:00 and end at 16:00. After that is a free hour where they can do any activity they want as long as they return to the dorm before curfew, at 22:00. For students who violate, will be punished by the head of their respective dormitories.

During Ruby's busy tidying up her book, it was seen that the Crown Prince and the other nobles of the Levana Empire were gathering towards somewhere, most disciples from the same place were indeed likely to gather together, whether as clubmates, or not, or just community.

Otherworldly hero party members also had time to gather before they finally split up in front of the entrance. Kanzaki Kazuki and Akabane Sora were seen sighing as Shirasaki Aoi left them rather coldly.

"You want to go to the club?" ask Eli suddenly.

Girl (?) it stood next to Ruby's chair while greeting her kindly. Pietro also followed behind him. Ruby shook her head slowly in response.

"I'm sorry, I have something to do before. So today I can't come."

Eli did not take issue with her and replied to Ruby with a smile, "OK! Enjoy your time. It's not that we have important business at the club either. Aqua did not tell me anything but to learn as carefully as possible. On its own instead take quests from the division here and there."

"If you need anything, say yes! We will help you as much as possible! Tell me about friends!" her smile.

Ruby was silent for a moment, "Friends?"

Before finally smiling faintly, it was barely visible. "Yes, thanks..."

After waving to Ruby, Eli leaves Ruby in a deserted classroom while pulling Pietro's hand. Needless to say, they are heading to their club room. And since Ruby is not present, it's a good time to discuss Raven's plans going forward. Even though the chairman was not present.

Left by Eli, Ruby rearranges her desk and bag before leaving the classroom. Whispers by whispers were heard from the remaining children in the classroom. Thanks to Ruby's senses that were indeed stronger than humans, she could hear everything clearly.

Schoolgirl A, "Pstt... Look, does he not want to socialize?"

Schoolgirl B, "Anyone wants to play with her? Serem ah, cook the same people who can suck our blood to death that."

Student A, "Si Kynlaus is the same Bocil Oren that's the only thing he's been talking about, right? Indeed yes, the freaks get together just like the freaks."

Schoolgirl C, "Hihihi... His Highness the Crown Prince is also cold to him, right? Though he used to be the Crown Prince's most recognized potential fiance."

Student B, "Oi, oi, oi. If it were me, I would have punished him. How dare he get engaged to a random person before the engagement with the Crown Prince takes place. Good thing that random guy is Prince Vittacelar."

Student B, "That's real. If not the elf prince, surely the royal family would have imposed severe punishment on him. Especially if it's ordinary people, the death penalty is very possible."

Student A, "If it wasn't for Prince Aquamarine, how could the monster be that free."

Student B, "The Crown Prince's betrothed, the vampire's half-sister who even became his fiancee. It's a pity."

Schoolgirl A, "Oi! Don't talk about him! You can be considered insulting to the imperial family!"

Student A, "Opss, right too."

Schoolgirl C, "This Ruby, she's spent a lifetime of good luck becoming the fiancee of Prince Aquamarine."

Student A, "Iri said boss!"

Schoolgirl C, "Yes I envy!! Why ehang!!? He has a fiancee who can solve any problem! Who doesn't envy try!"

Schoolgirls A, B and Students A, B, "Wkwkkwkw, patient, patient."

Despite hearing all that, Ruby's expression remained flat until she left the classroom. But his heart was boiling for various reasons.

"When they know nothing."

The girl was walking at a rapid pace out of the building. His mind was crowded by himself. Ruby has often received such treatment. Every time he walked in front of others, people who knew his identity would always whisper. He is indeed popular like Aqua who disguises himself as Citrine, but for reasons that are 180° different.

If Citrine's popularity comes from a beautiful face, cold nature, high status and outstanding achievements so that people are amazed and envied. So Ruby's popularity came from her status as an Imperial dog, a race that was frightening to humans and the recent incidents that befell her. Ruby's gaze was filled with scorn, envy, jealousy, hate and other negative emotions. Despite getting it so often, Ruby could never get used to it. No, maybe Ruby can. If the memory that was on him only the memory of Ruby who was tormented since childhood.

RUBY POV

Those of you who don't know what my life was like before have no right to say it! I admit, being Aqua's fiance is one of the good fortune of my life. Because with that various problems in my life can be resolved.

But if for the sake of becoming his fiancee, I have to experience various other problems that can even exceed the original Heroine, dihh! Why should I get involved with such a troublesome matter!? My only wish is to see my sister again, not to have a rich, handsome lover and high status.

I'm not the protagonist of shoujo manga!

I'm not interested in a bunch of good-looking guys who just add trouble to my life!

I am not a woman who needs their love and depends on them like that!!

Since childhood I was educated to become an independent woman by my sister and mother! Depends on the fiancee! That's not my style!! If you want to be like that, do it yourself! Don't drag me around!

"Kh..."

"......"

"......"

"......"

TAP TAP TAP

My feelings are too chaotic because of those people. "Calm me, it's not like you."

I try to calm myself as much as possible. But I had not yet walked far enough away from the building, my hand suddenly being pulled by someone far to the side of the building. Since my body is too small for a child of my age, my body can be pulled too easily by that person.

BRUUUUUKKKK

"!!"

A teenage girl with black hair and blue eyes cornered me against the wall quite hard and locked my movements with her hands (cabedon).

Ah, I know him. He's one of those high school kids who got called from Japan. If it's not wrongly named...

"What do you want from me, Shirasaki Aoi-san?" many cold.

The girl's pupils slightly shook, "....-san?" his inner.

His face looks even scarier. He's really angry right now. I don't remember ever looking for trouble with him. Why is he suddenly like this?

"Call me with the honorific '-san'. As expected, you're from Earth, right?" he said with a denouncing tone.

Hmm. how should I answer this. I did call him - San. But I don't mean to say I'm from Earth either. Of course I also did not think that he would be aware of it, but I still did it for no reason. Maybe it's because it's not important that he knows or not.

"Answer question!!" snapped it.

Ha~ahh. Girls like gini, no problem, he's the one who's looking for trouble. Really far from my nature that is far from the problem but instead involved in the problem.

I slowly brushed off his left hand that was leaning against the wall and locked onto my movements.

"Does that have anything to do with you?"

His eyes widened, "Of course there is!!! Where did you come from!?! Japan!? Korea!!? Or China!!?"

All he calls are East Asian countries. Are the only people to Isekai Japanese, Korean and Chinese? Are other countries on Earth not considered? So stupid. Just because the stories of novels and comics about Isekai come from those countries, does not mean that people who go to Isekai really only from there, right?

"I say it again. What does this have to do with you?" I said coldly, there's no point getting involved with this more than this.

Shirasaki Aoi clenched her hands with a furious face, it seemed that her patience was running out. Even though I should be.

"You don't seem to want to say it. All right, I won't ask you again. I wouldn't wonder how you could be Rubylia Arsilla. To be sure, whether you have other people's memories, reincarnation or replace the body of Rubylia whose soul disappeared, it all means you have knowledge from Earth" he said.

"Seeing the flow of this world so exciting and different, you are not! You're the one who changed the plot!!?"

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't pretend you don't know!! You are the one who changed the original plot of Dragon Wing until all the information I have become useless!!! It must be you!!! Otherwise, the real heroin might disappear!! How could the Crown Prince not have a fiancee anymore!! How could a villain like you be the fiance of a hidden target, Prince Aquamarine!!!!"

"......."

Ah. so it is. This girl is also a 'player'.
