The next day...

Stepping into the class, Sheila walked straight to her seat without talking to any of her classmates on the way there. When she had just sat on the chair, a familiar figure gives her a pat in the shoulder before giving her a greeting.

"Good morning, Sheila."

Sheila looked up with her sleepy gaze and met up with Ria smiling face before she nodded her head and was about to say something back, but a yawn escaped from her mouth as she answered the greeting.

"Yawn~ Morning..."

"Did you sleep late again?"

Ria let out an exasperated sigh when she saw Sheila yawning without covering her mouth at all. She had even specifically given her a call last night before going to bed and told Sheila to sleep earlier, yet it appears that the word had gone through her ears. She wonders if Sheila spends her night typically until late night by playing games, or did she spend her time in the Trial Tower till late night instead? She would like to inquire Sheila but couldn't due to where they are and decide to do so later after the school ends.

"Well, I have been busy with various 'stuff' as you know. I was about to go to sleep after your call, but not before I checked the internet and was shocked that the game that I've put on wish list has already been out for like three days!"

"...so you ended up playing that new game till late at night?"

"Of course! I don't want to fall behind! And so, I spend the entire night and finally finished it, but when I looked out of the window, I realised its already morning."

"You didn't sleep at all?!"

"Wait, calm down. I haven't finished my word."

Sheila leaned over to Ria before moving her eyes to the surrounding, and when she saw no one looking at them, she whispers to Ria that she sleeps in the Trial Tower. At first, she didn't know what to do and was panicking that she didn't have any sleep at all but when suddenly, She had the idea of taking advantage of the time dilation from the Trial Tower.

"You mean to tell me that you sleep in such a dangerous place?"

Ria whispers back with an alarming tone. She already knows about the time dilation of Trial Tower and the real world, but she didn't expect for Sheila to have that much courage to do that, especially when she was still suspicious with the system.

"I have no choice, you know? I was so sleepy and tired, and when the idea went through my mind, I immediately went forward with the idea and slept in there."

"But I remember you telling me that there's no safe zone for you.."

"Ah, you don't need to worry about that as when I have the ability to give access to other people to enter the place, I could also 'created' a safe zone for myself."

"Due to the Time Dilation, you should have enough sleep yet it didn't seem like it?"

Sheila flinched when Ria brought out the topic she didn't want for her to know. The actual reason that she was tired is not because of last night gaming but instead...

"You..."

The glare and cold word from Ria caused Sheila to break in a cold sweat. She was about to ask for forgiveness and tell the truth when the homeroom teacher steps into the classroom.

"Alright, quiet down and go back to your seat."

Ria stares at her for a few seconds before she went back to her seat. A relieved sigh escaped from her mouth as she put her hands onto her chest and could feel her heartbeat finally calmed down. Although she is safe from being inquired by Ria at the moment, she could see the future where she gets scold badly by Ria while in dogeza right in front of her. That was what she thought when she saw the look coming from Ria before she went toward her seat.

While the teacher was calling out each student's name one by one, Sheila, with her sensitive sixth sense, overheard her classmates whispering to each other about an interesting topic.

"Hey, did you know about the news of a new student transferred to our school?"

"Oh, of course! I heard its a beautiful girl!"

"Hell yeah, man! But I wonder which class did she get transferred to?"

"Ah, it would be nice if it's in our class, but that's just a wishful dream isn't?"

"But still! Even if she transferred to a different class than ours, we could still pursue her! It's not too late to give up!"

"You're right! We could—"

The classmates were so into whispering to each other that they didn't notice the teacher standing right behind them. One of them suddenly feels uneasy and looked back, what he saw caused him to break into a cold sweat and his body trembling unstoppable. His friend saw his reaction and wonder why he is acting so weird and decide to also look behind them.

Sheila giggled as quietly as possible with her hand covering her mouth while she was watching her classmates getting scold harshly by the homeroom teacher. When the homeroom teacher has finished scolding her classmates, he went back to the front before glaring at the whole classroom with menacing eyes. When the class becomes so quiet that one can hear their own breathing, the teacher finally opened his mouth and announced something that caused her classmates to riled up with passion.

"We have got a new transfer student in our class."

The sudden announcement makes the class riled up in excitement, especially for the boys that have heard the news or rumors about the beautiful transfer girl. Sheila had known about the presence waiting outside; that was why she was interested when she listened to her classmates whispering about the transfer student.

Creak!

The door of the classroom slowly opened, the gazes from the entire class went toward it before a beautiful and thin legs step into the class, which caused the boys to go silent in amazement. But it didn't end there as slowly; the figure walks straight and proudly into the class.

A blazing red hair that one could almost see the illusion of a real fire and within those blue marine eyes contained a strong will. Seeing such a beautiful girl walked into their class, the boys that were silent a moments ago started to rile up with passion. The homeroom teacher tried to silence them with his frightening glare, but the boys completely ignored it as their eyes focused onto the red-haired girl to their front.

Sheila looked at the boys in her class in amazement and thought in her mind, if only they have this much passion for their studies, before shaking her heads at their stupid antics. Her gaze moved from the boys to girls and saw them fiercely glaring at the red-haired girl as if she was their hated nemesis. There are only two people in the whole classroom that didn't actually react much like them, which is Sheila and Ria— both of them were only mildly curious in the new transfer girl, unlike the other classmates.

Sheila stared at the blazing red hair and thought, I can't disguise my hair red anymore, huh? Or the poor girl will likely become her meat shield without knowing anything since she's the sole person with the attention-grabbing red hair. The teacher urged the girl to introduce herself to the class, and she responds with a nod before opening her mouth to speak.

"My name is Angelica Ernest, and I have been living abroad since I was a child. I didn't know much about the culture around here, but please treat me well."

While Sheila was staring at the transfer student like the other classmates, she secretly active her mana eyes. She would not have done this if she didn't experience seeing the aura surrounded her father at home. Ever since that small surprise on dinner, Sheila had tried to use mana eyes to look at her father, and what a shocking founding. With only her sixth sense, Sheila could tell that there's a special aura around her father. But when she looked at her father with mana eyes, she could see a chunk of mana 'leaking' out of his body.

It was there and then that she finally know the reason why her father, like a normal person, would be emitting such aura around him. Maybe in the past, Anthony has been living or visiting a place where the mana is thick. But since his body couldn't hold that much amount of mana, it ended up leaking out of his body which created a special aura that only a specific group of people could tell.

Sheila remembers that Ria once told her that she could also feel a special aura around her, maybe just like Anthony. Right after Sheila had given the skill book to Sylvia, she immediately brings Ria back to reality, afraid that the two might start fighting again. After sending Ria to another room, Sheila went back to her room and locked the door before she enters the Trial Tower again, but this time with a goal of experimenting if she could control the mana from leaking out of her body.

Thanks to the passive skill Mana Sense, she could control and manage the mana inside of her without any problem. She tried to keep the mana from leaking out of her body, and it went very smoothly that she finds it unbelievable.

And today, when Sheila was walking together with Ria on the way to school, she had asked if Ria could feel that aura again and Ria shook her head in response, just like she had expected. After Sheila had told Ria about what she found out, she tried using her mana eyes to check every person passing after them on the way to school. But she didn't find anyone like her father.

Back to the classroom, after Sheila active her mana eyes, she was surprised to see the same thing that she saw around her father, but this time on the transfer student, Angelica Ernest.
