So many names, I can barely remember the players by the end of the game...

— Oh? — Intrigued by what she overheard, another student steps into the doorway of room 201. — Hmm, curses, gossip... Can I join you, girls?
One look at the stranger was enough for Nire to realize the necessity of wearing a student uniform. She could still imagine sloppy, bookish nerds from wealthy families, but now she seriously doubted whether she had ended up in an imperial military academy, judging by the exam question. —Well, hello, hmm, why not? 🙂 —she smiled slightly, exchanging glances with Cassia. —We're telling scary stories, it's your turn.
"What about the press?" -- Well, not everyone needs to train until they're exhausted. Division of labor, right? -- Varya remembered what Yukka had said about family, feeling slightly embarrassed. -- Well, anyway... Let's go somewhere else?
— Lead the way! — Vita agrees in a somewhat commanding tone. Yukka gives a silent nod of agreement.
Leila herself wasn't entirely sure how to best answer Bonita's question, and so she could only look at Ixore with an equally puzzled expression.
— It would be strange to start reconnaissance by talking about who we are, where we're from, and what our names are, — the Ta'mani smiled.

— Scary stories, hmm... Have you heard about Medivi from Aeolia? I heard that there is an underground section of the city where all sorts of dirty things happen. They trade in illegal goods, hold death matches, and engage in slave trading: some are sold as labor, some as research material for all sorts of mad scientists and sorcerers, and some are sold for pleasure—the pointy-eared Lilies seem to be particularly popular there, as they have very "feminine" forms and are very popular among buyers because in Lily society, women hold a dominant position: perverts like to "break" those with strong characters, you see. Well, think about it, yesterday she had a dozen husbands and used them as chairs or footrests, and today, after they thoroughly brainwashed her, all she can think about is unwashed... well, you know, ha-ha-ha!

Varya knocks on door 204.
— Who is it? — a voice comes from behind the door.
— To the left? Hmm... — Toad carefully examined his own poster. — Actually, I like that one more. Well, maybe it’s for the best; it’s always nice when your companion has different tastes than you, and you don’t have to share anything. But, getting back to your questions, — the guy adjusted his glasses and began to methodically answer one question after another, — I brought the posters from home, and I haven’t been around the area yet, so I don’t know anything about the local goods; yes, and feel free to make yourself at home — I don’t mind if you want to free up your part of the wall, just let me know. And as for magic... I’ve always liked the girl-mages from the books with illustrations that were sold in one of the stores in my city, and that’s why I’ve always wanted to learn something like that, but so far I can’t do anything. I hope I can learn something at this academy.
- You’re thinking correctly, neighbor. Although I also like girl-mages, there’s something attractive about them, if we’re talking about the same thing, — Vale corrected himself. — But there will probably be several of them here, so there shouldn’t be any problems, and everyone will be able to find a girlfriend to their liking. And in your case, even a magic partner, — the young man smirked at his ambiguous phrase, then quickly added. — But let’s agree right away that it’s better to practice magic outside this room, because what if there’s a fire or something, and we’re on the fourth floor, and we won’t be able to leave the building quickly... — Vale was about to refer to his companion’s physique, but decided it was too early to joke about it. — After all, we’ll still have to have time to pick up our things, and delay is dangerous. We’re lucky that our door is near the stairs, but the other poor guys will be pitied, but they’re to blame themselves. How did you decide to choose this floor, and not some lower one? As for the posters, — the guy suddenly remembered the beauties on the wall, — let them hang, besides, I don’t have anything to hang up yet. Maybe later we’ll find something interesting when we go out into the city, and then we’ll change them.
Leila herself wasn't entirely sure how to answer Bonita's question, and so she could only look at Ixora with an equally puzzled expression. “It would be strange to start reconnaissance by talking about who we are, where we're from, and what our names are,” the Taimanian smiled.
“So maybe that's the plan, to make your victim lose their guard. Or maybe those aren't even your real names.” Ixora wanted to say something, but Bonita interrupted her. “So, ‘Leila and Ixora from room 302,’ remember this: we, the students of this academy, are all enemies. By earning more points than our rivals, we have already eliminated a large number of those who wanted to enroll here. This will surely ruin someone's life, cause irreparable damage to their self-esteem, and perhaps even their emotional health. It is quite possible that someone will even become an alcoholic or go down some other dark path. So... playing friends at this stage is at the very least foolish and at most offensive to those who have already dropped out of the race. Do you understand?”

“You’re right, neighbor. Although I also like magical girls, there’s something about them that’s very attractive, if we’re talking about the same thing,” Vale corrected himself. “But there will probably be several of them here, so there shouldn’t be any problems, and everyone can find a girlfriend to their liking. And in your case, even a partner in magic,” the young man smirked at his ambiguous phrase, then quickly added. “But let’s agree right away that it’s better to practice magic outside this room, otherwise there might be a fire or something, and we’re on the fourth floor, and we won’t be able to leave the building quickly...” Vale was about to refer to his interlocutor’s physique, but decided that it was too early to joke about it. “After all, we’ll still have to collect our things, and delay is dangerous. We’re lucky that our door is near the stairs, but the other poor souls will certainly be pitied, but they are to blame themselves. How did you even decide to choose this floor, and not some lower one?” As for the posters,” the guy suddenly remembered the beauties on the wall, “let them hang, besides, I don’t have anything to hang up yet. Maybe we’ll find something interesting later, when we go out into the city, and then we’ll change them.
“I don’t really like it when people run around on my head,” the guy shrugged, “and the view from the upper floors is better, and the noise from outside is less audible.”
The sharp response made one question the legend of the girl behind the door, but what could you do? -- Well, we won't be seeing her face today. >Room 205.

—Haaa 😅 —Nira giggled awkwardly, trying not to pay attention to the familiar rural accent of the guest. —I've never heard of Medivil, it probably doesn't appear in fashion magazines. But the story does sound creepy! It's good that it's free and safe here, isn't it? 😉 And by the way, my name is Nirianna, but you can just call me Nira. —she remembered, realizing she had forgotten to introduce herself.
The sharp reply made one question the legend of the girl behind the door, but what can you do. -- Well, we won't see her face today. >Room 205.
— Are you here to check in? Oh, I'm sorry... I thought the room was meant for two people and allowed myself to use one half of it. Please wait a moment, I'll clean everything up now.
— So, maybe this is just a plan to make your victim lose their guard. Or maybe these aren't even your real names. — Ixora wanted to say something, but Bonita interrupted her. — Alright, "Layla and Ixora from room 302," remember this: all of us students at this academy are enemies. By earning more points than the rest of our rivals, we've already eliminated a large number of those who wanted to enroll here. This will definitely ruin someone's life, cause irreparable harm to their self-esteem, and maybe even their emotional health. It's quite possible that someone might even turn to alcohol or go down some other dark path. So... playing friendly at this stage is at the very least foolish, and at most, offensive to those who have already dropped out of the race. Got it?
At first, Layla thought about arguing with Bonita that friendship based on rivalry and mutual respect wasn't exactly something rare. A friendship where each other's successes motivate you to become better, to grow in your field. But ultimately, it was hard to deny that even points, even though they are an abstract value, have an impact on their future, and helping a more talented rival to unlock their potential will negatively affect your own ranking, even if it does give you motivation to work harder. Even if your friend, after achieving success in the future, will be grateful to you until their dying day. The question of priorities arises here. There was some truth in the girl's words, even if not everyone could agree with her. — We heard you, — the Taimanian nodded when her interlocutor finished her speech, — right, Ixora?
I actually mentioned the short name in parentheses.
—Haaa 😅 —Nira giggled awkwardly, trying not to pay attention to the familiar rural accent of the guest. —I've never heard of Medivil; I guess it doesn't appear in fashion magazines. But the story does sound quite creepy! It's good that it's free and safe here, isn't it? 😉 And by the way, my name is Nirianna, but you can just call me Nira. —she remembered, realizing she had forgotten to introduce herself.
Cassia didn't know what to say in response to the second guest's unexpected story, so she simply remained silent and thought about something else. — Nira, huh? Hmm, I wish I had some elaborate long name so that my friends could use a short form, but alas! I'm Shera, by the way. And, by the way, it's possible that it's not as safe here as you think. I've heard that slave trader cells operate throughout the continent, and our Sakuramoria is no exception. Of course, cases of abduction are very rare thanks to the reliable guard and the large budget, but if you happen to wander into some dark alley, it's quite possible that the next time you wake up, you'll be on an operating table or in a dark mine with a pickaxe in your hands. Although, attractive girls like you two would probably end up in the company of rich old men, surrounded by the smell of alcohol and medicine, ha-ha. If you think about it, life itself is a scary thing, worse than any fiction.
