It's New Year, or so they call it, so my age has gone up by one, now I'm 9 years old. The abnormal weather for today to start school is

"It's thunderstorm! And fish and octopuses are falling down! Free seafood!" [Diana].

I ran outside in my pajamas and grabbed a big fish with a sword for a nose. It's quite big, I guess bigger than the orc I defeated the other day while training with my friends. It looks delicious, so much so that I had to use strengthening magic just to drag it and ask the chef to cook it.

"Young lady, that's very unladylike of you" [Head Maid].

"I see, so I should choose something cuter! On it!" [Diana]

"That's not... Never mind" [Head Maid]

The sun hasn't risen yet. Even if the sun was up and wanted to greet us all, the weather wouldn't allow it. That's fine, since Nar and Sas mentioned that sometimes school is canceled when the weather is bad, and since I'm still in a cozy mood, I suppose this is good news, but

"Nice weather" [Sas]

Sas, who slept through the thunderstorm, was greeted with a sunny day. 

"What's up with the weather lately?" [Nar]

"Who knows?" [Sas]

"So this is abnormal even for abnormal weather?" [Diana]

"Somehow" [Sas]

"It used to be a phenomenon that only happened here, but there are reports that even the northernmost and southernmost countries are experiencing it" [Nar].

We were discussing the weather with the fish I had brought as our meal for today. It's steamed to perfection, served with rice and salted soup. It's delicious. So delicious that I wanted to have a second helping, but they stopped me because they think it will make me fall asleep in class.

After my meals, I usually start practicing with Nar and Sas, but for today

"Just get ready for school, you don't want to be late for your first day" [Nar].

"Did you go to the same school?" [Diana]

"No, we went to a common school for commoners" [Sas]

"You two must be good students!" [Diana]

"Not really..." "YES WE ARE! That's why please study hard!" [Sas][Nar]

What was Sas about to say before Nar shouted? Well, since there's no morning drill, I can take my time to enjoy my bath and prepare myself. That's a luxury!

The school allows for different numbers of uniforms, so of course I pick one that I think is best, but I wanted to match with Kara, Mara and Neloufa, and after our intense discussion the other day, we decided to go with what Neloufa calls a more mature look. When Kara and Mara heard it, they voted for it as well. I didn't know what they meant by a more mature look, but it's still frilly, with a cute red ribbon and a long black skirt, so I guess it's not bad.

"How did I look?" [Diana]

"Ok" "THE BEST!" [Sas] [Nar]

Nar said it enthusiastically while giving Sas a light elbow. Sas tried to be more energetic in response. What are they up to?

"Wait, where is your bag?" [Nar]

"You didn't lose it, did you?" [Sas]

"Carrying my bag around with those heavy books felt like a drag, so I put everything in my space magic" [Diana].

"Well, that's good" [Sas]

(I think I can let this one go. It's kind of heavy. Seriously, hasn't the school noticed this problem?) [Nar]

With the golem carriage, Nar, Sas and I went to find Neloufa first, as her home is quite far from the noble school. She is waiting patiently with her blue beg in front of her house, together with her parents. She looks so excited that she started dancing and singing out of sheer excitement.

(Why couldn't Diana be as excited as Neloufa?) [Nar].

"Why are you staring so hard at me?" [Diana]

"I'm just worried about you" [Nar].

"?" [Diana]

Worried? About what?
